The sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear, just like Peggy's mood today.
Perhaps it was because she had met Su Bai and chatted with him so much that Peggy, who had been at a loss since she came here, felt a lot more at ease. The negative emotions had disappeared a lot. Whether it was her roommates or her colleagues at the phone company, they could all feel that Paige was in a good mood today. She smiled like a flower and walked like a gust of wind.
When she arrived at SSR's office through the dedicated elevator, Paige realized that something was wrong. Everyone was packing up and preparing to enter the conference room. Something seemed to have happened.
Daniel, what's wrong?"
Peggy asked a male colleague.
At the same time, there was something wrong with his legs. He was walking with a cane, so he walked a little slower.
"I have a mission!" Daniel said.
Paige's spirits were lifted and she hurried into the meeting room. However, there was no place for her inside. She could only stand at the side. Soon, Director Dooley began to introduce them. When she saw the image on the projector, Paige was instantly stunned.
It was Howard Stark.
" The millionaire playboy is a traitor."
" The Americans have always paid close attention to the career of the inventor Howard Stark. From a young genius to a weapon developer to a millionaire, many people are also very concerned about his private life. However, his recent actions may cause him to lose his footing. He was accused of selling weapons to the local government. The founder of Stark Industries was recently summoned to Congress.”
The scene changed to the Congress.
"Did you knowingly sell military-grade technology to the US enemy?”
"I didn't sell it knowingly.”Howard said.
"Then have you ever sold it without knowing?”
Edward smiled and said cynically,""It's obvious that this question cannot be answered.”
The image ended there. Director Dooley turned off the projector and said,"" At present, six of Stark Technologies 'products have appeared in the black market or in the armory of the enemy country. He has been evading and treating the whole matter as a joke. Yesterday was the last day of the hearing, and Stark did not show up. They searched many of his residences and offices, but they couldn't find him! Now, Howard Stark was not only in contempt of Congress, but also a fugitive. Find him and squeeze his sense of humor dry!”
With that, the director began to assign tasks.
Paige wanted to defend Howard. She knew Howard well and knew that he would never betray the country. However, when the words came to her mouth, she suddenly thought of what Su Bai had said yesterday.
He wanted him to remind Edward to be careful of his little vault!
Could it be this?
Unfortunately, before he could remind her, it had already happened.
She believed that Howard would not betray the country, and she also believed that Su Bai must have a deeper meaning behind his words. She decided to talk to Su Bai. Perhaps she knew the truth. Thinking of this, she swallowed the words that she wanted to explain. Listening to the director's deployment arrangements, it was obvious that... there was no mission or work for her.
After the meeting ended, everyone got busy. Paige was even assigned some paperwork.
After she finally finished dealing with it, she went downstairs to find her colleague at the telephone office after work. It was the person who had helped Su Bai with the phone call yesterday and asked for Su Bai's number.
Until Peggy was related to Su Bai, he easily gave her his number.
"Can I borrow the phone here?”Peggy asked.
"Of course! We've already connected the wires during the day, so we can try to see if there's any problem.”
"Thank you, but…since you know the address, can you tell me? It might be more convenient to talk in person than over the phone.”
"This…It's not convenient to tell you the address privately, right? What if Mister Su Bai blames us…"
Although the address was easier to find than the number, he didn't dare to agree to it privately.
After all, it was one thing for others to know, and another thing for him to say.
Seeing that he was in a difficult position, Paige smiled and said,"You're worrying too much. You know our relationship. We were together yesterday. When we left, he told me the address, but I forgot. I was going to call him, but if you tell me, I can go directly. It's better that way. If I tell him I forgot the address, he'll be angry.”
Hearing such an obvious hint from Peggy, the man no longer hesitated. In his opinion, Peggy didn't want Su Bai to know that he didn't remember the address, as if she didn't care about him.
After giving her the address, Peggy thanked her and left to find Su Bai.
She followed the address and came over. When she saw the endless wall and the gorgeous towering door, Paige was completely dumbfounded.
Yesterday, Su Bai pretended to be mysterious and refused to say it, or he would find out sooner or later. Now it seemed that he was right. Even if there was no such thing, SSR would definitely investigate such a big manor and such a rich person. He would find out sooner or later. Taking a deep breath, Paige rang the doorbell!
Not long after, a woman walked over with a scrutinizing gaze.
