Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life.

This was Tony's first time designing a suit of armor. Although he had considered the need for flight for the final escape, he did not expect that controlling the attitude during flight would be far more difficult than he had imagined.

Tony, who was in mid-air, was most grateful that Sherlock came to his rescue and took Ethan away.

After all, if things really went according to the original plan, whether Ethan ended up riding on the back of his armor or he carried Ethan, given the current flight conditions of the armor, Ethan's fate would only be one thing.

He fell from a great height and died!

However, Tony's relief didn't last long before turning into panic. It was actually quite simple; although his posture was a bit awkward, at least the thrusters under his feet were still pushing him forward.

But after a few loud bangs, the thrusters beneath his feet suddenly stopped firing!

The moment he lost power, Tony truly panicked. The heavy steel giant thrashed about in mid-air like a drowning fish, but it couldn't resist the immense force of gravity and crashed heavily to the ground.

The poorly made armor, by a twist of fate, became Tony's greatest lifesaver, as its crude construction allowed it to absorb almost all the impact of the fall.

Although the weapon still managed to throw Tony away after being torn to pieces, compared to the normal outcome of being smashed into a pulp, Tony was fortunate to have only sprained his arm.

If there's anything amiss, it's probably that the 'locator ring' Tony had been keeping in his mouth was accidentally swallowed by him in the chaos.

Lying on the scorching sand, Tony hoped that even if the ring was still inside his stomach, it would still work. Having not eaten or drunk anything for a long time, Tony really didn't want to move anymore, so he just lay there idly, waiting for Sherlock and the others to come looking for him.

Under the sun's rays, Tony soon closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep, as the past month had been incredibly tiring for him.

However, just as Tony was drifting off to sleep, the aroma of a cheeseburger, like a robber, kicked open Tony's nostrils and brazenly barged into his brain, making Tony almost instinctively open his mouth to take a bite, but unfortunately, he bit into nothing.

Just as Tony was getting angry, he heard a strangely familiar yet gloating voice in his ear.

"See, I told you this trick worked!"

Tony struggled to open his eyes, and the scene before him even made him wonder if he was hallucinating.

In front of him stood a Raptor pickup truck, its elaborate patterns and gleaming paint clearly not something one would expect in this desert.

Inside the car, Sherlock was dressed in clean beach clothes, wearing sunglasses, and holding a fishing rod with a cheeseburger tied to the fishing line dangling in front of him.

His young face was full of mischievous grins, like a little fox who had successfully pulled off a prank.

Meanwhile, in the driver's seat, the man named Zhao Weike was also dressed in beach clothes, wearing sunglasses, with his hands on the steering wheel, laughing so hard he was slapping his thigh as he watched Sherlock hook up with Tony.

Meanwhile, in the back of the raptor, Ethan, who had been neatly and cleaned up, was also riding in the back of the vehicle, looking at him with a smile.

Compared to the Ethan he knew, this Ethan was incredibly clean, and his smile was much purer, as if he had regained his respectable identity as a doctor before he was arrested.

What truly made Tony believe he was hallucinating was that, in the back seat of the Raptor, he vaguely saw a woman watching the children's childish antics with a helpless expression.

On the car window closest to him, a distinctly different anime-style creature was peeking out, looking at him with a curious expression.

"A hallucination? It's not so bad."

In a daze, Tony mumbled something to himself and was about to close his eyes again when his lips touched something. The strong aroma of oil and the intense taste of cheese made Tony instinctively open his mouth and bite into it.

The instant Tony bit down, he felt his head being lifted up by a force, while the so-called 'hallucination' burst into even louder laughter!

"I caught it! I caught it! I'm the first man in the world to catch a fish named Tony Stark in the desert!"

As the familiar voice appeared, the laughter reached a new level. Both the force transmitted through the fishing line and the unique taste of the cheeseburger in his mouth clearly told Tony that this was not an illusion!

Tony suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the Raptor in front of him in disbelief. Almost instinctively, he sat up, pulled the cheeseburger off the fishing line, and ate it while watching the scene in front of him that he couldn't describe.

"Sherlock, stop playing around. Let Tony clean up properly, and then we need to get out of this godforsaken place as soon as possible. I'm starting to miss the civilization of human society."

The woman sitting in the back seat said somewhat helplessly to the three men who were laughing very happily.

"Doro wants to go home too!"

The anime-like creature chimed in, which made Sherlock stop his playful antics, open the car door, get out, and walk up to Tony, saying something to him.

"Come on, our womanizer, get in the car so I can take you back and explain!"

Hearing Sherlock's words, Tony, who had just finished eating a cheeseburger, finally came to his senses. He smiled and looked in Sherlock's direction, saying to him.

"I'm going to stay in the back room with Ethan. Damn it, I've never missed the damn sun like this!"

Sherlock pursed his lips at Tony's request, rolled his eyes, and complained irritably.

"Well, another one who's gone insane from being locked up!"

Just as Sherlock was about to move Tony to the back compartment, Ethan's voice rang out.

"Sherlock, I think you should make sure Tony takes a proper shower and gets himself ready. My god, this smell is absolutely awful!"

Ethan practically covered his nose as he complained to Sherlock.

Before Ethan could have spoken, Sherlock also sensed the intoxicating scent emanating from Tony. He immediately distanced himself from Tony and gave Ethan a thumbs up.

"You're right!"

As Sherlock finished speaking, a simple bathroom rose from the ground before Tony's incredulous and bewildered gaze.

Looking at the bathroom that had suddenly appeared in front of him, and the scene he saw, Tony's lips twitched for a long time before he finally broke down and asked.

"Don't tell me you all came to see me after you'd already showered and tidied up!"

"You guessed right, our genius!"

Inside the car, Zhao Weike answered Tony's question with an exceptionally wicked laugh, earning a glare from Helen in the back seat, but in return, Sherlock and Ethan burst into hearty laughter, while Tony stood there, completely disoriented.
