Chapter 64: My daughter is rebellious, but she seems to have matured
Parker's house.
The news is playing on the TV.
"For those of you who have just turned on your television, a major accident occurred in the laboratory of Osborne Industries earlier this evening."
After hearing the news report, Uncle Ben walked over to Peter who was watching TV.
"Although the details of the accident are still unclear, we have evidence that someone was killed in the accident."
"Osborne Industries' achievements in science and medicine are widely regarded as the world's most advanced breakthroughs in the past decade. The medical community has been speculating a lot about the company. According to sources, Osborne has developed a revolutionary new product."
The images that flashed on TV showed the tragic scene in the laboratory after the fire and explosion.
"It is not clear whether what happened tonight is related to the so-called new product. Authorities ask residents to keep their distance from the area where Osborne is located and not to approach."
Uncle Ben looked at the screen on TV and sighed slightly, "I hope Mr. Norman is okay."
The news anchor's voice on TV continued: "It is unclear whether local businessman and entrepreneur Norman Osborn was at the scene of the accident."
Uncle Ben listened to the news report and cast his eyes on Peter.
"Peter, is your classmate Harry okay?"
Uncle Ben had a good impression of Harry when he was a guest at Osborne Manor before, and he asked Peter with some concern.
"I just called him. He wasn't at the scene, so he wasn't hurt."
After Peter learned that the explosion he heard in the hospital in the morning was an accident in Osborn Laboratory, he called Harry to confirm his safety.
"That's good."
After hearing what Peter said, Uncle Ben breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the sofa.
"It's been a very eventful time recently. First it was Sheriff George, and now it's the Osborn family. It seems like all the bad things have come together."
Uncle Ben rubbed his forehead, he had a lot on his mind lately.
Aunt May recently found a new job, and Uncle Ben needs to pick her up and drop her off to get off work every day, which completely ruined his idea of working as a part-time taxi driver.
After all, it is impossible for two people in a family to work.
Someone has to take care of the family.
Peter thought for a moment and said to Uncle Ben, "I remember the company was called Feast, right? I saw their truck on the street."
"Yes, your Aunt Mei was just a volunteer before, but now it's a formal job."
Uncle Ben said to Peter: "The boss of the company is a Chinese. Mei often said that he is a good man who helps the homeless."
When Peter heard Uncle Ben say that the other person was Chinese, he became interested.
After all, I am also a Chinese, and I have a natural affinity with my fellow countrymen.
"Have you seen him, Uncle Ben?"
"No, but I think his last name was 'Lee'."
"Lee?"
Peter nodded.
I can pretend to be a rich man and meet this Boss Li, and ask him to pay Aunt Mei more salary.
Soon he turned his thoughts from his fellow countryman to Aunt Mei.
Although Aunt Mei's new job is now stable, the family's finances are still a bit tight.
It seems that I need to speed up the process of applying for the scholarship I forged.
I don't know if those people who made the fake certificates have been dealt with yet.
After talking to Uncle Ben, Peter went upstairs to his room.
Standing in front of the window, he held a pink transparent glass bottle in his hand.
Got this from Matt Murdoch last night.
The other party used this poison to make George Stacy lose his mind and go crazy. Is this the only effect?
Peter always felt that there was more to this drug than that.
It seems that Matt Murdoch did not tell himself the whole truth.
He held up the glass bottle, pointed it towards the sun, and looked through the glass at the pink smoke entering.
The line of sight was infinitely stretched away, and the dark pupils seemed to fall into an endless abyss.
At the end of the abyss, a pair of blue pupils appeared.
Gwen was originally staring at the liquid in the root beer bottle. When she heard her father's words, she coughed unnaturally and looked away.
She feels a little guilty now.
To be honest, I don't know why I chose to take the bullet for Peter at that moment.
Maybe it was because Peter was close to him?
Well, this reason doesn't convince anyone.
She could see from George's face that her father seemed to care very much about this matter.
"Are you listening to me, Gwen?"
"Of course, Dad."
Gwen pretended to be calm, "Peter and I are just good friends."
"Really? But you're not a good liar, Gwen, I can tell."
Although George had a good impression of Peter, he always felt that this boy had many secrets.
When the gangster raised his gun just now, Peter used his feet to pull the plastic carpet, causing the gangster to fall.
This kid always does things that he can't predict.
So even though he had a good impression of Peter, he was still afraid that his daughter would encounter more dangers after being with him.
What he said to Peter when he lost his mind before might not be all crazy talk, some of them were his real thoughts.
It's just that these thoughts are buried deep in his heart, and he would never reveal them under normal circumstances.
"I know that the pastors in the church always say that purity, kindness, dignity, integrity, and careful words and deeds are what girls should be like, but I am not like that."
Gwen exhaled and said to her father, "I'm just a little crazy girl."
“Since I was little, I loved to secretly read comic books and stand in front of other kids and listen to their rap and rock albums.
In school, I excitedly watched other kids smoking, went home to secretly read my comic books, or listened to harsh rock music night after night, day after day, year after year, I should have completely eliminated the possibility of becoming a good girl in the pastor's mouth. "
"So. Dad."
Gwen blinked and said, "Sometimes I don't listen to you. After all, that's just who I am."
"You know what I'm trying to say, Gwen?"
"Of course, I understand what you mean, Dad. You mean I should be cautious about my views on love, right?"
Gwen's expression became more serious. "Only in matters like this will I instinctively follow my own opinion."
"Forehead"
George was suddenly speechless because of what his daughter said.
How come he didn't see that his daughter would be so rebellious?
but
He sighed and thought to himself: This also means that my daughter has matured.
The next day, early in the morning.
Midtown High School.
As soon as Peter entered the corridor and opened his locker, he heard the discussion.
All that was talked about was the explosion at Osborn's laboratory.
"Hey, have you watched the news? There was an accident in Harry's laboratory, and his father is still unknown whether he is alive or dead."
Thank you all for voting! Bow!
