Chapter 218: Stark Tower Surrounded, Someone is Making Trouble

~6 min read 1,043 words

"I hit them, those people were a bit excessive at the time."

Karl asked, "What's wrong?"

"Oh..."

Tony said slowly, "It's nothing major."

"It's just that there are a lot of people surrounding Stark Industries right now, saying they want to find you." "Find me?"

Hearing this, Karl raised his eyebrows slightly.

It seemed these students had come knocking on his door?

He didn't expect these people to actually dare to come.

Was the previous punishment not enough?

Karl asked casually, "How many people came?"

"Ah... about a hundred or so?"

"Alright, I'm coming over now."

"Mm."

After hanging up the phone, Karl said to Jang Man-wol, "Something came up temporarily, I might be a few minutes late for dinner." "You go find a restaurant first, I'll be back in ten minutes or so."

Hearing this, Jang Man-wol said, "Ten minutes? Then I can wait for you."

"Alright, then I'm off."

"Mm-hmm, take it easy, Oppa."

"I'm not in much of a rush."

"Good."

Karl nodded.

Then, using his super vision, he searched for Tony's location.

Hmm, Stark Tower.

Once found.

Karl's figure vanished in an instant.

The next moment, he appeared in a luxurious office.

This office was very large and decorated in a stylish manner.

At this moment, there were only two people in the office.

One was Tony Stark, sitting in the boss's chair.

The other was Pepper, standing beside him.

Both of them were looking at the computer on Tony's desk.

Pepper said with some concern, "So many people have come."

"I feel like our security guards won't be able to hold them back much longer. Should we call the police?"

"No need."

Tony didn't seem to care too much.

"Mr. Superman will be here soon. Do you really think these people can stir up any trouble?" "But, there are so many people, and reporters too."

Pepper remained worried, "Even if Mr. Superman is very powerful, he wouldn't lay a hand on those ordinary people, would he?" "Even so, those people can't do anything."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came.

"Tony, Pepper, hello."

Hearing this, the two looked up and saw Karl not far away.

"Mr. Superman?"

"Old buddy, you finally arrived."

Tony and Pepper greeted Karl.

Pepper asked, "Would you like some coffee, Mr. Superman?"

"If it's not too much trouble, I'd like an iced coffee."

"Certainly."

With that, Pepper went to prepare the coffee.

Karl walked to Tony's side and asked, "Did those students come to cause trouble?" "Of course."

Tony pointed to the computer in front of him.

"Not only did they come to cause trouble, but their parents and relatives came too."

"Hmm."

"There are also several reporters currently surrounding the outside of Stark Tower." Hearing this, Karl looked at the computer in front of Tony.

He saw that the computer screen displayed over a dozen surveillance feeds.

These feeds showed the situation in front of Stark Tower.

In the surveillance, the area in front of the Stark Industries building was packed with people.

It looked like there were hundreds of them.

Some were younger students, about a hundred or so.

There were also some middle-aged people.

The number of middle-aged people was even greater.

Many of the middle-aged people were holding signs.

Written on them were things like:

"Superman, come out and apologize."

"How dare you hit my son."

And similar remarks.

At the very front, there were also many reporters negotiating with the security guards.

Roughly speaking, there could be three to five hundred people.

They had completely blocked the entrance to Stark Industries.

The employees inside the building couldn't even get out.

In fact, if it weren't for the security guards doing their best to hold them back.

These people would have already charged into Stark Tower.

After all, the number of people was simply too high, twice that of the security guards.

The fact that they hadn't immediately charged into Stark Industries was thanks to the company's ample security force.

After all, Stark Industries was never short on money.

There were over two hundred security personnel responsible for the headquarters.

And every one of them was a strong, able-bodied man, with many even being military veterans.

So even though the troublemakers were more numerous.

They still couldn't enter the Stark Industries building.

In fact.

If it weren't for the fact that these security personnel were not allowed to use force.

They would have already dealt with all the troublemakers.

Don't let the number of troublemakers fool you, even if they were more than double the security staff.

If force could be used, the security guards could resolve the situation in under twenty minutes.

If weapons were allowed, it would be even faster.

After all, they were all professional security personnel.

And they were highly skilled in both physical strength and combat techniques.

Dealing with some ordinary people was simply too easy.

However, they obviously couldn't just attack these people without reservation.

After all, according to their own claims, these troublemakers were all victims.

And there were reporters on the scene.

If they were to use force directly, the security guards might lose their jobs.

So they could only block the other party.

After looking at the surveillance footage.

Karl smiled, implying something, "Quite a lot of people."

"Yeah, well, many students brought their families along."

"The number of students I hit isn't this high."

"Of the students who came, less than half are ones I've hit."

"Most of them are unfamiliar faces."

"Hmm?"

Tony was stunned, not understanding what Karl meant.

"I suspect someone wants to take advantage of this situation to stir up trouble."

Karl said indifferently, "I remembered the faces of every student I hit. There are many students here I've never seen before."

"And the total number here is much higher than the students present at the time."

Tony asked doubtfully, "Really? Mr. Superman, your memory is that good?" "Of course it's true."

Karl possessed a super brain and had an extremely strong memory.

He truly remembered every face of the people he hit that morning.

But a large portion of the students in this surveillance footage were people he had never seen.

In other words, most of the students here were not people he had hit.
