Chapter 342 George and Peter
Peter Parker is in trouble. This is beyond doubt. Now just to see how much influence this trouble can have.
New York City has been a little rough lately, and the superhero world has been a little rough lately.
Let's not mention the big global news that Captain America sued the US military. Another piece of news that broke out in the last two days has also attracted strong attention from New Yorkers.
Regarding the arrest of Spiderman's arrest of New Yorker McMahon (the convenience store robber), his attorney Lucar questioned on the TV news.
Not only pointed the finger at Spider-Man for illegally arresting citizens, but also implicated the New York police. It is their overindulgence and inaction that make the hippie wearing a red and blue tights and wandering around New York City doing nothing more and more do whatever he wants.
According to Lucar. "Spider-Man thinks he is the law, and he can arrest whoever he wants. As long as one swoops down and binds spider silk to the suspect he believes, the police will obediently take him away."
"Because this guy who claims to be a good neighbor of New Yorkers has a huge influence on the New York police. He can always solve those criminals that the police can't catch, so the New York police have bowed to him!"
Lucar's words can be said to be very, very heartbreaking. He not only magnified Spider-Man's problems, but also used this method to completely tear apart the relationship between Spider-Man and the police, which was already in a delicate state.
For a while there were huge questions about whether the NYPD argument was useless, and whether the police took Spider-Man or other superheroes to catch criminals and held them with 100% confidence that they were guilty.
George Stancy was tempted to swear in front of the media. But as the image of the New York City police, he must explain as reasonably as possible in the press conference and keep smiling.
Keep smiling, keep smiling! To hell with it! Keep smiling. George Stancy used a sandbag to vent his anger in the police activity room. He hit the sandbag with a combination of punches, just like hitting Spider-Man.
The media clung to the issue of Spider-Man, and the New York police were also implicated by Peter Parker. George Stancy had never been so angry. Several excellent detectives under him submitted their resignations to him officially today.
The work of the New York City police is getting harder and harder now. George's work pressure today felt extremely great, and he wanted to go home early.
At least the home will make people feel warm, with his gentle and virtuous wife and beautiful and intelligent daughter there. But when he thought of his daughter, George became a little angry again. Because today my daughter's boyfriend is coming to the house for dinner.
Well, this isn't the first time Peter Parker has been a guest at Gwen's house. If he wanted to date Gwen at night, he had to come to Gwen's house and say hello to Gwen's parents.
The atmosphere at Gwen's table today was eerily quiet. George didn't want to talk, and Peter, who usually talked a lot, didn't want to talk. He wasn't asking Gwen out on a date today.
It's just that Gwen invited him to eat at home, and they did homework together at night and chatted casually.
But Peter, who should be very happy usually, is preoccupied today. George Stancy silently ate the sea bass made by his wife and stared at Peter with murderous eyes, which made Peter feel restless even more.
"Dad, how was work today?" Gwen wanted to break this embarrassing situation. But maybe she made a wrong decision.
"It's terrible Gwen, you read today's news, what did the media say about us?" George finally stopped staring at Peter with murderous eyes, which made him heave a sigh of relief.
"They make the police down to nothing. Think Spiderman is helping with everything. The police don't do anything, seriously. I just want to arrest Spiderman as soon as possible! He keeps breaking the rules, illegally arresting people Such an officer. Who on earth gave him such authority! He's not a policeman!"
George's last sentence was almost roared out, very loudly. Scared Gwen. She had never seen her father so rude. At least in front of himself and his mother, his father has always had a kind face. A good husband, a good father.
"I'm sorry, I was a little rude." George also felt that his voice was a bit loud just now. "Four of my best agents resigned today. The NYPD lost another significant force. I shouldn't have gotten mad at you guys, sorry."
George said a little disappointed. Both Gwen and her mother gave George a gentle hug. "It's okay, it'll be fine."
Peter was also upset by today's news, especially after hearing George's remarks that he wanted to arrest Spider-Man, he felt extremely embarrassed. He wanted to ease the atmosphere of the scene. "Uncle George, I think Spider-Man might, might just be trying to help."
"You've said it all, the best police officer in New York has left. Isn't Spider-Man helping you with your work load?" He wanted to try to make his language as easy as possible.
"Help with work?" George looked at Peter Parker with an incredulous look. "You don't know anything Peter. You don't know anything."
"What Spider-Man is doing is not helping the New York police, but adding chaos! He is making trouble for our work."
Peter somewhat disagrees with George. "Hey, really. I think he's just trying to help."
"Yeah, it really helped us a lot. He caught 15 gang members in the black gun trade in the dock area last month. That's the information that took us three months to get. Responsible for this case. The colleagues in the group worked overtime and did not go home for three weeks in a row!" George said to Peter Parker in an extremely serious tone.
"What they were waiting for was the moment to capture these criminals! But when they acted, they discovered that all the criminals had been captured. Spider-Man captured them, and he left a note telling everyone not to thank him .”
"Maybe he was just joking," Peter explained.
"Really? That's a joke that made a good detective quit after fifteen years." George said, looking Peter in the eye. This kind of sharp gaze made Peter dodge a little.
"You know what it is about being a police officer that makes these people willing to pay so much to arrest criminals?"
"This is a sense of mission, a sense of responsibility, a sense of honor and a sense of accomplishment. All police officers who are upright and committed to eradicating criminals rely on these to be motivated to work around the clock, just to catch criminals and return society. A peace!"
"You have to know that the salary of the police is not very high. Especially in the face of those vicious gangsters who will kill people at any time. This humble salary seems so insignificant."
"If you want to make money, outside private security companies are willing to spend a lot of money to hire those excellent police officers to work. The treatment they can give is much better than that given by the New York City Police Department!"
"And Spider-Man took it all away. He stole the honor that should belong to these officers in a despicable way. He crowned himself with other people's achievements!"
"I don't deny that Spider-Man has done some good things. But in my opinion, these things are just his vanity to satisfy his ego. And that sense of justice that has no place to rest."
"Peter, you have to understand one thing. Everyone in this world needs a sense of identity, a sense of accomplishment and a sense of honor. Spider-Man is not the only one who needs it. He satisfied his own sense of accomplishment, but deprived himself of A sense of accomplishment that belongs to others."
"It's true that he is a superhero. But as a superhero, he has destroyed more ordinary heroes. Those heroes who are simple in life but are contributing to the world." George said with a kind of sadness Said to Peter in a tone of voice.
"Most of them may have been unknown all their lives, and the combined aura of all of them will not be as dazzling as Spiderman. But they are also irreplaceable in this world."
"If the price of becoming a superhero like Spider-Man is to destroy countless ordinary heroes, then I will put Spider-Man in prison!"
Peter Parker sat silently on the dining chair, a kind of powerless sadness engulfed his body and mind.
