“So, Mr. Tony, do you have a way to control Venom?” After learning about Venom’s various functions, Lin Rui looked at the still Venom in the glass jar and asked Tony beside him.
“Eh … there is no solution for that at this moment. Regardless of how small these Venom splits are, they still have their own consciousness and cannot be controlled.” After hearing Lin Rui’s question, Tony responded awkwardly.
“However, although I haven’t found a way to control Venom yet, I believe that there will be a way to control it in the future. This thing is an alien creature and it is not good for others to come and study it with me. It would be nice if Dr. Banner was here, He has deep knowledge in biological science.” After feeling the embarrassment of the atmosphere, Tony quickly made up a sentence.
“Ohh? Dr. Banner? Is it Bruce Banner?” Lin Rui hadn’t paid attention to Tony’s forced explanation, but asked quickly after hearing a particular name.
“That’s right, Dr. Bruce Banner. Do you know him?” Tony asked curiously when Lin Rui suddenly looked surprised.
Although Lin Rui has brought a lot of surprises to Tony, especially since Tony has now almost confirmed another identity of Lin Rui, but he was able to recognize Dr. Bruce Banner and it still surprised Tony. Dr. Bruce Banner is not an ordinary Ph.D. but a nuclear physicist who is no less talented than Tony Stark, but most people wouldn’t know such a person as he is not famous.
In an unexpected physical experiment, Dr. Bruce Banner was subjected to Gamma-Rays radiation and mutated into a green creature called Hulk, now whenever he is angry, he turned in to Hulk, he is one of Marvel World’s top powers. In order to treat his irradiated mutated genes, Dr. Bruce Banner turned to biology and achieved great success in that field with his talent.
However, a few years later, Dr. Bruce Banner did not find a cure for himself. So, in order to avoid himself from getting angry and become Hulk and hurt people. Bruce Banner has gone incognito to an inaccessible place in Nepal more than a year ago and has been learning all kinds of ways to control anger.
Now, there are not many people in the world who know where Bruce Banner is, and Tony is obviously one of the people who knows about him. Although Tony knew where Dr. Bruce Banner was, he wouldn’t call Hulk back in the practice because he was anxious to study Venom. Not to mention Banner is likely not to return. If he suddenly becomes Hulk in New York, Tony feels that his Iron Man Army wouldn’t be able to stop the big guy.
So Tony was a little surprised when he heard Lin Rui say Dr. Banner’s name. Does the little guy in front of him knows about Hulk? How many secrets did he know?
“Uh … this. That’s right, I know about Dr. Bruce Banner.” Knowing that he was acting strangely, Lin Rui quickly replied.
“Oh? I’m curious how you knew him. Don’t say that you know about him from the Internet, this guy’s information is not available online at all.” Seeing Lin Rui admitting it, Tony goes on to ask Lin Rui. As he asks Lin Rui, Tony looks at him with folded arms and waits for an answer.
“Uh … this … that …” Seeing Tony’s aggressive manner, Lin Rui didn’t know how to answer for a while.
Lin Rui knew that Hulk was involved and Tony’s attitude was normal. However, Lin Rui can’t make up any good excuses now! With a quick thought in his head, Lin Rui was also wondering whether or not he should directly admit his secret Identity to Tony. He believed that if he had admitted the identity of Mirage Knight, Tony would not be on his case about his knowledge of Hulk. But as Tony stares at himself, Lin Rui suddenly remembers something.
“Oh! I remember! I heard about Dr. Bruce Banner from Dr. Erik!.” Finally remembering something that can get him out of this situation, Lin Rui said quickly.
Lin Rui didn’t lie, and he did hear Dr. Erik mention the name of Dr. Bruce Banner when he was interning with Dr. Erik in New Mexico. Just when SHIELD confiscated Jane Foster’s equipment and research materials, and she was planning to find SHIELD, Dr. Erik persuaded her to leave them alone.
At that time, Dr. Erik said that a doctor he knew was involved in this mysterious SHIELD, and then disappeared. He also asked Jane not to make things big. At that time, Lin Rui was a little confused when he heard the name of Bruce Banner, because he didn’t know that Dr. Erik knew about Hulk. Is their country really have such a small academic circle? However, there should only be one Bruce Banner, who can be involved with SHIELD.
However, because he had Thor beside him at the time. And Dr. Erik was not very familiar with Dr. Banner, so Lin Rui didn’t inquire about it later.
“Dr. Erik? Is that the Astronomy professor that you interned with in New Mexico during your vacation?” Tony asked with a puzzled expression when he heard the name of Dr. Erik from Lin Rui.
“Yes, that’s Dr. Erik.” Nodding earnestly, Lin Rui confirmed it again.
“J.A.R.V.I.S, check if this Erik really knows Banner.” Staring at Lin Rui for a few seconds, Tony turned to J.A.R.V.I.S and ordered.
“Yes, sir.” J.A.R.V.I.S., who was always present, agreed quietly.
“Sir, Dr. Erik does know Dr. Banner.” Soon, J.A.R.V.I.S. replied.
“Ok, I believe you.” After receiving the answer from J.A.R.V.I.S, Tony put his arms down and said to Lin Rui with a smile. However, whether Tony really believed Lin Rui’s words or not, no one knew, but at least he appeared to have believed it.
“But, Mr. Stark, is there anything special about this Dr. Banner? Why are you so nervous?” Silently relieved, Lin Rui asked with normal curiosity.
“This, you will know when you see him yourself. However, it may not be a good thing when you see it with your own eyes.” Tony answered with a quirky smile when he heard Lin Rui’s words.
“Uh … okay.” Of course, Lin Rui had imagined in his heart what it would be like to see the Hulk in person, but he was still very curious.
“This boy! Let’s see how long you are going to pretend!” Tony looked at Lin Rui’s expression and silently thought.
“By the way, what’s going on with Peter now?” Dr. Banner’s affairs passed for a moment and Tony suddenly asked Peter’s situation.
“Oh, he is fully recovered from his injuries.” Lin Rui subconsciously answered when Tony asked about Peter.
However, when Lin Rui finished answering, he remembered that he was not Mirage Knight right now, why would he knew so well about Spiderman’s injuries! However, it was too late to change his answer now and Lin Rui had to continue pretending to be calm and waiting for Tony’s words. If Tony asked him how he knew Peter was injured, Lin Rui will say that he saw it when Peter didn’t go to class and he went to his house to find him. As Peter’s good friend, such reasoning should not be flawed.
However, to Lin Rui’s surprise, Tony just nodded slightly and said nothing, and it seemed that he knew nothing about Peter’s situation.
“He’ll be all right. He’s a good little fellow. At least, I think he’s better than you.” Looking at Lin Rui in front of him, Tony suddenly says something that is not clear.
“Oh, yeah? I always thought Peter was great too! His grades are better than mine.” Lin Rui said.
“Well, now, let me show you the latest design results!” The small talk is over and Tony is going to get back to work. One of the reasons he called Lin Rui here today is to ask him to help me with the later experiments as Tony will not waste such a handy assistant.
