Reborn in Marvel, I am Iron Man's son?

But to his surprise, the first person to question him was not the police, but the presenter, Nisley.

“Miss Winters, I did kill the kidnapper, and I modified the stun gun I used to kill him.”

Mark readily admitted it.

"Mark, are you kidding me? You're only five years old, how could you possibly know how to modify a stun gun!"

Nisley couldn't believe it and continued to press, "Was this stun gun modified by someone else, and you took the blame to cover up their crime?"

As she spoke, her eyes kept glancing at Rosalie beside her, clearly implying something.

"Something's wrong with this woman!"

Mark understood the other party's implication and immediately became more vigilant.

From bringing the mayor to his hospital room yesterday to force him to participate in this interview, to the assistant suddenly barging in just now, it all seems like it was all pre-arranged.

And her target seems to be Rosalie.

"No, their real goal might be the same as that mutant's—if Rosalie is sent to prison for illegally modifying weapons, I will lose my guardian and be sent to an orphanage, where they can easily control me."

Mark quickly understood what the other person was thinking: "It seems that Nisley and that mutant are backed by the same person, or belong to the same organization!"

Fortunately, the stun gun was indeed modified by Mark and had nothing to do with Rosalie.

"Isn't it just modifying a stun gun? What's so difficult about that! Just increase the number of turns in the transformer coil to increase the voltage, and then replace the resistor with one of a smaller ratio to increase the current..."

Mark spoke eloquently, explaining in detail how he modified the stun gun.

"Hiss... This boy really modified the stun gun? How does he know so much about it!"

"He's only five years old, and he can do all this. He's a genius!"

"..."

Some viewers and guests at the scene couldn't understand what Mark was saying, but the string of technical terms he used was quite impressive.

Nisley clearly understood and knew that Mark's method of modifying the stun gun was correct.

This shocked her with Mark's intelligence, and also made her unable to continue using this against Rosalie.

"Mark, you're a genius! No wonder you're Tony Stark's son!"

After calming down, Nisley said, seemingly in praise.

"What is the host saying?! This boy is Tony Stark's son?"

"That can't be right, Tony Stark isn't married yet!"

"..."

The guests and viewers in front of the TV were truly shocked this time, never expecting that Mark had such a background.

Some people seem to have finally understood why Mark's kidnapping caused such a commotion.

"Everyone can take a look at this newspaper..."

Nisley unfolded the newspaper her assistant had just brought, revealing the information on the last page.

The photo above shows Rosalie sitting on her hospital bed, with a baby Mark lying next to her.

Chapter Thirty: The Demise of the Blackfire Gang

Upon seeing this news in the newspaper, those who were initially skeptical but were now forced to believe it.

"Ms. Payne, is it true that Mark's biological father is Tony Stark, as the newspaper says?"

Nisley looked at Rosalie and asked.

"This……"

Rosalie looked troubled.

She certainly wanted Tony Stark to acknowledge Mark's identity, so that Mark could have a better future.

But remembering the warning from Stark Industries' legal department, Rosalie swallowed back the words she was about to say.

But to others, her behavior was tantamount to tacit approval.

The interview ended there, but its enormous impact continues to spread.

“Miss Winters, those last questions you asked weren’t in the question-asking script!”

Upon arriving backstage, Rosalie immediately confronted Nisley with dissatisfaction.

"I apologize, Ms. Payne. This was a mistake on our part! I received the information suddenly and didn't have time to communicate with you immediately. Please forgive me."

Nisley said apologetically.

Rosalie knew the other person was talking nonsense, and her face turned red with anger.

But CBS, where Nisley worked, was one of the largest television networks in the United States, and Rosalie couldn't do anything about it.

She could only angrily turn and leave with Mark, deciding never to cooperate with CBS again.

"Whoosh!"

No one noticed that as Mark walked past Nisley, he flicked a tiny listening device, the size of a black bean, onto her head.

Before coming to the TV station, Mark casually made a few miniature listening devices.

He was just being prepared, but he never expected to need it this time.

He wanted to try and see if he could find the person behind Nisley!

Once back in his hotel room, Mark immediately played the recording from the bug on Nisley's body.

After he and Rosalie left the television station, Nisley went into the office of news director Jonas.

"Niseley, you did a fantastic job hosting today! This interview program has broken the ratings record of the past two years!"

Jonas praised it aloud.

"Director, the host did such a great job, what reward will you be giving them this time?"

Nisley's voice was soft and gentle, quite different from her tone when she hosted the show.

"Hehe... Don't worry, I'll submit a report in a couple of days to promote you to editor-in-chief of the news program. The station director shouldn't object."

Jonas's laughter turned lewd: "Baby, shouldn't you repay me?"

Nisley was overjoyed and quickly thanked Jonas.

Then, an inappropriate sound was heard in the office.

"I never expected Nisley to have such unique tastes, actually getting together with that bald old man named Jonas whom I met on TV before!"

Mark pursed his lips, casually uploaded the recording to CBS's website, and then continued listening to the rest of the recording.

Nisley then went home after get off work and then appeared to go into the bathroom to take a shower.

"Crash..."

Hearing the sound of flushing water, Mark had a bad feeling.

His bugging device was stuck to Nisley's hair; it would definitely break if it got wet.

"Ring ring ring..."

Fortunately, the phone rang at that moment.

Nisley paused her shower and went out of the bathroom to answer the phone.

Mark breathed a sigh of relief and focused on listening to the recording that followed.

“Niseley, you haven’t done what I asked you to do.”

A dignified old man's voice came through the phone.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Epstein! I never expected that the stun gun would be made by Mark, a five-year-old child. This has completely ruined our plan to put Rosalie in jail.”

Nisley apologized respectfully.

"So, do you think that kid named Mark is Tony Stark's biological son?"

"Although Rosalie didn't actually admit it, based on today's probing and her reaction at the time, I think it's highly likely to be true!"

Nisley answered cautiously.

“In that case, let’s put the original plan to capture Mark on hold for now! Tony Stark still has a lot of connections in the military, so let’s not provoke him for the time being.”

After a moment's hesitation, the voice on the other end made a decision.

"Okay, sir."

"Zizi..."

After Nisley hung up the phone, she went to the bathroom to shower, and the bugging recording stopped completely.

"Epstein? Is it Eric Epstein, who's in the top ten of the world's richest people? If it is, it's not surprising that he would send out mutants!"

After listening to the recording, Mark finally understood who was targeting him behind the scenes.

Although he still didn't understand why the other party was going to such lengths to deal with a five-year-old child like himself, Mark no longer cared.

When he grows up, I will personally go to him and ask him this question.

Moreover, the other party seemed to have temporarily given up on dealing with him, which made Mark breathe a slight sigh of relief.

"And the Blackfire Gang..."

Mark begins using computers to hack into Blackfire Gang's businesses, hoping to continue searching for evidence of their crimes, just like before.

He believed that with such sustained blows, the Blackfire Gang would eventually be completely destroyed.

"Huh? This is..."

However, Mark soon realized something was wrong.

He saw through the camera that a large number of police officers were being dispatched to raid and shut down businesses owned by the Black Fire Gang.

Nightclubs, bars, supermarkets, and shops were sealed off one by one.

One group of police officers, fully armed, stormed into the Blackfire Company's office building.

On the top floor of the building, Derek was frantically dialing the mysterious number that had once contacted him, trying to get help from the other party.

Unfortunately, the phone call couldn't get through for half an hour.

"It's over..."

Derek slumped helplessly into his seat, knowing he had been abandoned by the other party.

"Police! Hands up!"

Police quickly broke down the door and arrested Derek.

……

"It seems the police have found some strong evidence of their crimes and are ready to wipe out the Blackfire Gang completely!"

Seeing that even Derek had been arrested through the intersection's security cameras, Mark realized that the Blackfire Gang was probably finished.

What puzzled him was that the Blackfire Gang's criminal evidence was very well hidden, and he was unable to find it even after repeatedly using hacking skills to infiltrate the Blackfire Gang's businesses.

Who on earth has such extraordinary abilities to find this evidence of crime?

Stark Villa.

"Sir, all of the Blackfire Gang's properties have been seized, and the gang's leader, Derek, and all the important leaders have been arrested. Only a few low-level members are still at large."

Jarvis provided Tony Stark with real-time updates on the police operation to capture the Blackfire Gang.

“Good. Now transfer the remaining payment to those three mercenary groups, and also give them an extra $1000 million as a reward for this operation.”

Tony Stark, while playing Stardew Valley on his computer, gave the order to Jarvis without turning his head.

In order to find evidence of the Blackfire Gang's crimes, he first had Jarvis investigate three hidden locations that the gang might be using to store evidence.

They then hired three more mercenary teams at a high price to raid the three locations simultaneously, and finally found all the ledgers and other criminal evidence of the Blackfire Gang's transactions in one of the locations.

Derek never imagined that someone as high and mighty as Tony Stark would go to such lengths to deal with them!

The next day, Mark saw news on major New York news websites that the police had completely wiped out the Blackfire Gang.

Police seized more than 3 tons of various drugs and over 300 illegal firearms, and rescued 153 abducted women, including 24 underage girls.
