Heroes of Marvel
Chapter 1028: Restoring Normal Tom
Lin Rui briefly explained his work at Stark in the warmth of Mom and Dad's shriek. Of course, these are made by Lin Rui now. Lin Rui did do experiments and research with Tony, so his parents wouldn't have doubts about how he was doing his job.
“That would be nice, but, Jackson, would you go back to school?” After Lin Rui spoke about his work, his mother, Mary, asked.
After all, Lin Rui is only seventeen years old now. Although he said he would work behind Tony Stark, even if he didn't go to school in the future, it would be fine. But as parents, they still want their children to read more. After all, Lin Rui is still too young, and they don't want him to work full-time so early.
In fact, Lin Hai had already spoken to Lin Rui about this issue before. For Lin Rui, it really doesn't matter if she doesn't go to school anymore. If Lin Hai and Mary really want to have a good education, Lin Rui can totally get Tony to help. Tony once said that with Lin Rui's current knowledge reserve, he had no problem getting into MIT on his recommendation.
However, although I am now a superhero, Lin Rui still has some interest in simple student life on schedule. And with the contact of Iron Man Tony Stark, a superhero with important responsibilities like Captain Steve Rogers, Lin Rui's mind slowly becomes heavy. So, spending more time with teenagers helps Lin Rui maintain a passionate young mindset at all times.
“I'll go back to school sometime. I've already talked to the teachers at school, and they know about me. So, no problem.” Thinking about it, Lin Rui replied with a smile.
In addition to Lin Rui, Peter and Tom are now continuing their classes. Lin Rui will not give up campus life except that Harry is really because the family business requires him to put all his energy into it.
“Well, that's good.” Marie was relieved to hear Lin Rui's answer.
“By the way, during your time at Stark, Tom came to see you. Tom's emotions haven't been very good since the last time that happened. Recently, however, much has been achieved. I heard from Mr. Smith that Tom seems to have made new friends recently and usually goes out to play.” After talking about work and learning, Lin Rui's father Lin Hai suddenly mentioned Lin Rui's childhood playmate Tom.
“Tom?... Does he know I'm back?” When Dad mentioned Tom, Lin Rui's eyes flashed and asked.
“Well, I told him when you said you were coming home. If he's home, he should be here by now. “
At the end of Linhai's words, Lin Rui suddenly sensed something and then turned around and looked at the door. Following Lin Rui's eyes, outside Lin Rui's door, a person standing there is actually Tom that Lin Hai just mentioned.
“Tom, you're here! Come on in. What are you doing at the door?” Seeing Tom not knowing when to stand at the door, Lin Hai hurried over and said enthusiastically.
“Hello, aunt and uncle.” Tom smiled and greeted him with a warm welcome from Linhai.
Indeed, as Lin Hai just said, Tom is much better now than he was when he first came back a month ago. Although not yet fully restored to its pre-disappearance character, it is no longer much different from a normal person. Lin Rui also sees Tom's change. Clearly, Lin Rui was also surprised by Tom's change. Lin Rui has always apologized to Tom. But now that Tom is recovering well, Lin Rui is feeling better.
“Tom, long time no see.” Lin Rui also greeted Tom with a warm smile as he walked in.
Phew ~
Then, before Tom could react, Lin Rui had given him a huge hug.
“... Long time no see, Jackson.” Tom seemed a little stunned when he was suddenly hugged by Lin Rui, but after a moment of reaction, he reached out and held Lin Rui, and said with a low voice.
“Well, it's been a long time since I've seen you two good friends. I'm sure we have a lot to say. We'll leave you alone. We're going to prepare dinner now, and we'll call you back when we eat.” Seeing Lin Rui and Tom hugging each other, Mary said in due course.
The Smiths have long greeted their neighbors and asked them to take care of Tom in their home as much as possible because of the physical and psychological shock he suffered when Tom disappeared. The Lin Rui family has been greeted with emphasis because Tom and Lin Rui have been good friends since childhood. Moreover, after Lin Rui went to work at Stark, Tom went to the door several times to ask when Lin Rui would be back.
So now that Lin Rui is back, and Tom is here, Linhai of course they will give them some space. When she left with Mary, Linhai also gave Lin Rui a look, which probably meant that he would take Tom and have fun.
“Come on, go to my room, we haven't talked about games in a long time.” By the time Dad and Mom went to the kitchen, Lin Rui and Tom had separated, and Lin Rui laughed at a good friend with a distinctly different temperament in front of him.
No answer, Tom just nodded. Next, both of them are no longer good friends of regular high school students, so we went upstairs to Lin Rui's room. And they can only release themselves when no one else is around.
“Jackson, were you in London last week when the aliens invaded Earth? This whole time, it wasn't you, you weren't hurt.” As soon as he walked into Lin Rui's room, Tom asked directly.
Apparently, Tom is still worried about Lin Rui. Moreover, Jarvis imitated Lin Rui's voice and Lin Hai and Mary called to hide them, but they were no better than Tom. It's not that Tom knows him better than Lin Rui's parents, it's just that Tom subconsciously knew Lin Rui wouldn't do experiments quietly at Stark Industries. After all, Lin Rui's other identity is the Phantom Knight.
“Uh... I wasn't in London at the time. In fact, not only was I not in London when the aliens invaded Earth, but I was no longer there.” Upon hearing Tom's inquiry, Lin Rui looked embarrassed, but did not give a concealed answer.
Tom was obviously surprised to hear Lin Rui's answer. If the Phantom Knight went to London with the Iron Man Captain of America, it wouldn't matter if they dealt with aliens together, but now Lin Rui says he wasn't on Earth. Can Lin Rui still travel through space like those aliens?!
