Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life.

Tony, who is always the center of attention and the main character, felt ignored for the first time. However, when faced with the gleaming bathroom in front of him, Tony finally gave up the fight and obediently went in to take a comfortable shower.

After showering, Tony changed into the same beach clothes that Sherlock had prepared for him and Ethan, and also put on a large pair of sunglasses. He climbed into the back of the Raptor and lay down on either side of Ethan, waiting for the ride to begin.

With the roar of the engine, the Raptor started up again, and the group finally embarked on their journey home. Tony and Ethan couldn't get enough of looking at the endless yellow sand and the azure sky.

Although these things seemed somewhat monotonous to Sherlock, everything was wonderful to the two unfortunate souls locked in the dark cave. Even the scorching sun that could make a person's skin oily seemed lovely to them.

Despite the extremely bumpy ride in the desert, especially for the two unfortunate men in the back seat whose bottoms were practically crushed, they were still happy to endure it, even shamelessly claiming that it gave them a sense of being alive.

Sherlock and his companions rolled their eyes so hard they almost reached the sky.

Compared to when we were looking for Tony, the return trip was undoubtedly much faster.

When Sherlock's Bird of Raptor once again flew into the military base, Tony in the back cabin attracted the attention of almost the entire base's soldiers. If Rhodey hadn't stepped forward at that moment, Tony would probably have been stared at like a monkey at the gate for quite a while.

As for Rhodes, after making a joke about Tony's "happy car," he had the doctor give Tony a quick check-up and then prepared to put Tony on a plane and send him back to the US.

After all, with Tony here, Rhodes really couldn't worry about it. Heaven knows how much Rhodes had been suffering during this time.

As for Ethan, Tony originally planned to take Ethan back to the United States, but Ethan refused. In Ethan's own words, this is his home, and he would rather stay here and become a doctor without borders than go to the United States.

Tony could only offer his heartfelt wishes to Ethan and tell him to call him if he had any problems. Ethan did not refuse, and of course, they parted ways at the base.

The only problem arose with Sherlock and his group.

It's important to know that Sherlock and his group were invited back by S.H.I.E.L.D. Now that the mission to find Tony is over, they should logically find a S.H.I.E.L.D. plane to return to New York.

Just as Sherlock and Zhao Weike were about to leave on the plane arranged by S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony insisted that Sherlock come with him and that he would take Sherlock and his group back to the United States.

Not only that, Tony offered a deal that no one could refuse.

Tony promised Sherlock that he would modify Sherlock's Raptor, guaranteeing comfort while vowing that he could make it even more awesome than a Baja race car.

Tony promised Zhao Weike and his wife an unforgettable trip, with all expenses covered by Tony, so they could have a romantic honeymoon in LA.

As for Doro, Tony simply offered him a gourmet feast and a family photo of oranges. Doro, the little foodie, was so tempted by Tony's offer that his mouth watered, and naturally, he didn't refuse.

Thus, under Tony's allure of the power of money, which he called capital, almost the entire Sherlock group defected and decisively boarded Tony's plane.

Even after Tony's plane took off, Hawkeye, who was still waiting for Sherlock and his group in the cabin, was extremely puzzled. Why hadn't Sherlock and his group boarded the plane yet? Were they really not in a hurry to go back?

Meanwhile, Hawkeye was still waiting for Sherlock and his group in the cabin, his mind still on the task Black Egg had given him to win Sherlock over. On the other side, Sherlock was sitting in the plane that had already taken off, curiously looking around and touching everything, looking like he had never seen the world before.

It's no wonder Sherlock reacted this way, after all, this was the first time in both of his lives that he had ever seen such a sight!

After all, Sherlock had seen this private jet in novels and movies in his previous life, so he was naturally extremely curious.

However, after Sherlock had toured Tony's private jet with Doro in his arms, all Sherlock could think was, "Fuck you rich people!"

Sherlock thought he was rich enough because he was financially independent, but he never expected that Tony would be the classic example of a rich scoundrel!

Who would have thought that there would be a bedroom inside that airplane?

Most importantly, judging from the signs of use, Tony, that bastard, may have actually played with air-shaking!

So much so that when Sherlock looked at Tony sitting opposite him after visiting the plane, his eyes were filled with nothing but contempt!

The words "big dog" were practically etched into Sherlock's face; anyone could understand what he meant without him even having to say a word.

Compared to Sherlock's behavior, Zhao Weike and his wife were undoubtedly much more normal, or to put it bluntly, the two of them were completely immersed in their own world of two thanks to the expensive drinks provided by Tony.

If it weren't for the presence of Sherlock and Doro, and the fact that Tony, the plane's owner, was in the cabin, the two might have already run to the bedroom at the back of the plane.

Tony naturally understood Sherlock's look, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke to Sherlock.

"Sherlock Flamel, first of all, can you please stop looking at me like that? Secondly, I'd like to know what your relationship is with Anne Flamel and Nick Flamel?"

Hearing Tony's words, Sherlock did not stop looking at Tony with the same disdainful gaze one would give a dog, but a hint of doubt crept into his expression.

"What happened to my parents?"

Sherlock chose to skip Tony's first question and simply answered Tony's second question.

Upon hearing Sherlock's answer, Zhao Weike and his wife, who were engrossed in their own world, also perked up their ears, since this was the first time Sherlock had spoken about his family.

As for Tony, after receiving Sherlock's reply, Tony's gaze towards Sherlock sitting in front of him became increasingly complicated. After taking a deep breath, Tony continued to ask Sherlock.

Do you remember if your parents used to work for Stark Industries?

"certainly!"

Sherlock did not choose to evade the question, but answered Tony frankly. After all, his parents had already passed away, so Tony couldn't possibly make a fuss about it, could he?

But reality slapped Sherlock in the face. After hearing Sherlock's relaxed answer, Tony's expression became even more frozen. After opening his mouth several times, he took a deep breath and continued.

"Back then, your parents worked for Stark Industries and had a good relationship with me. So, whether you believe it or not, when you were born, I became your godfather at your parents' invitation."

After your parents died in the plane crash, your guardianship has actually been in my hands...

"What??" *3

Before Tony could finish speaking, he was met with gasps of surprise from the three people present, especially Sherlock, whose gaze toward Tony began to change after hearing his words.
