Luke's expression didn't change at all. Noticing Darcy's gaze, he asked, "You don't seem to be eating much. Is it not to your liking?"
Darcy shook her head. "No, Selina is your partner. You have a good relationship."
Luke didn't think much of it. "That's right. Good enough to wear the same pair of pants."
Selina glared at him unhappily, as if to say, "When did we ever wear the same pair of pants?"
Luke countered her gaze and explained naturally, "It's a description. Good enough to wear the same pair of pants is just a way of saying that we're very close."
Looking at the two of them exchanging glances, Darcy nodded blankly. "I understand."
She was a college student, after all, and could understand what he meant.
Also, the two of them were so familiar with each other … Did they really wear the same pair of pants?
Tsk tsk. Some strange images involuntarily popped into her head, and she was overwhelmed by the smell of philosophy.
No, why am I thinking about this? She shook her head, collected her thoughts, and focused on eating her lunch.
After lunch, Luke sent her back to the makeshift shed.
Looking at Darcy, who was watching Luke's car drive away, Selvig sighed deeply again. She had been gone for two to three hours, and she had washed her hair and changed her clothes. She was indeed an impulsive young man.
Darcy, however, mumbled inwardly, Does he like her or not? He asked me to take a shower, then asked that beautiful partner to eat with us, and then he sent me back. What … was that supposed to mean?
For a moment, the makeshift shed was as silent as before.
Back at the ranch, Selina was examining the two modified pickup trucks in the tool shed.
When she saw Luke return, she simply asked, "What, are you charmed by an F player?"
Luke said solemnly, "I don't have high standards. A D player is too much. I can also accept a B player."
Selina couldn't help but spit on him, but didn't dwell on the issue.
Jenny was a B player, and Luke indeed didn't look down on her.
More importantly, looking at Darcy's expression, she knew that nothing had happened between this fierce girl and Luke.
Changing the topic, she pointed at one of the two pickup trucks in the shed and asked, "Are you sure you want to use this?"
Luke nodded. "It's better to be prepared. This … might not be enough. "
Selina was surprised. "That's not enough? Then what do you want? A battleship cannon? "
Recalling the information he had received at noon, Luke couldn't help but shake his head. "That's a" god. "His enemies might not be ordinary humans. I can't get a ship cannon, and it's hard to find the right time to get one. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind giving it a try. "
Selina: "…"
She didn't think that Luke was joking.
With his temper and personality, he never liked to go easy on people in battle. If he could deal with them cleanly, he would not leave any loose ends.
Similarly, if he said he didn't mind giving it a try, it meant that he had considered it.
Thinking of this, her expression became solemn. "Are we really going to get involved? I mean, if it's a fight between 'Gods', it should have nothing to do with us. "
Luke sighed. "But" gods "don't consider people's feelings. They can fight wherever they like. If they were messing around somewhere else, I wouldn't know or care, but since they've chosen Shackelford as the battlefield, I can only prepare myself. "
Selena was speechless.
This was her hometown, and she had familiar friends and neighbors everywhere. It would be hard for her to accept seeing the town she grew up in reduced to rubble.
More importantly, nobody knew how many people would die.
After all, this could be a "battle of gods." If Shackelford was reduced to a crater, at least a thousand lives would be lost.
Thinking that, she didn't waste any more time, and returned to Shackelford.
Luke grabbed Gold Nugget by the scruff of its neck and whispered into its ear, "Protect her. If there's a crisis, you can ignore all prohibitions, but make sure she's alive."
Gold Nugget: "Huh?" The safety rules hadn't been so loose before.
Luke rubbed its head and said, "When I'm done working overtime, I'll make you three delicious meals when we get back. You can order the food yourself."
Gold Nugget whined and nudged his hand before it wagged its tail and happily followed Selina.
Naturally, Luke was confident enough to give Gold Nugget such an order.
With the abundance of both black and white funds in his hands, it was completely enough for a person to change their appearance and live comfortably in another place for the rest of their lives.
Also, compared to life, everything else could be compromised.
The money he had and the arrangements he had made over the past few months were enough to reduce the "aftereffects" of Gold Nugget and Selina's exposure to an acceptable level. Naturally, he had to loosen some of the safety rules that bound Gold Nugget.
Then, the day passed quietly.
Daisy had called in the evening to ask when Thor would be released.
Luke simply sent a text message to Phil and told Darcy that it would be soon.
At eight in the evening, Thor was finally brought out by the guards, and the four of them arrived at the ranch at around nine.
Luke provided them with a shared shower room on the ranch and gave Thor two sets of his own clothes.
Luke was now 1.88 meters tall. His muscles weren't as explosive as Thor's, and his lines were softer, but his clothes fit Thor.
Dr. Jane clumsily took care of Thor. The female genius clearly wasn't very skilled at taking care of people, but Thor hung his head dejectedly and let her take care of him. He was once again as dispirited as before.
Luke could only shake his head inwardly. While he was getting them food, he pulled Darcy into the kitchen.
In the end, Darcy didn't know what was going on with Thor. She only said that he had been like this ever since he left the FBI base.
Luke was very sure that he hadn't been tortured.
Even if Thor's right eye was black, it was Luke who had beaten him up. Furthermore, it was only in the name of a competition, and not a one-sided beating.
Thor, who had lost at that time, hadn't looked so depressed, because he had only lost because of his "weak" body.
On the other hand, after communicating with Luke, Phil wouldn't rashly do something so stupid, and would instead keep Thor to "fish."
Of course, what Phil would catch wouldn't be a fish, but a "berserk deer."
After the four of them returned to the shed, Dr. Jane and Thor chatted as they walked in the wilderness at night, and Thor finally told them that his father was dead.
Huh? Odin was dead? Looking at Thor's sad expression on the drone screen, Luke couldn't help but rub his temples.
Did Odin die in the movies? I don't think so.
Although Luke couldn't remember the details, it seemed that Thor, the crown prince, was still the crown prince in the Avengers' battle in New York.
That meant that Odin was still alive at that time.
Odin was the ruler of the Nine Realms. His death couldn't have been a quiet one.
So, Thor … had been tricked?
