American Comics: The Law of Strength

Chapter 70: Father's Request

Have something to say? George had something to say at this time.

George clenched the Glock in his hand, if he could, he really wanted to give two shots to the Batman opposite who had created one "surprise" after another for himself.

But as a police officer, his identity did not allow him to be so impulsive, only anger constantly brewed in his heart.

But when he remembered the speech of the Batman in front of the manor, the anger in his heart suddenly turned into a strong sense of frustration, and every word that the young Batman said at that time seemed to remind George how failed he was.

Both as a police officer and as a father.

These are the two identities he is most proud of.

"You already know that, right?"

Although George had already guessed the answer, he couldn't help but ask.

"You knew then that Gwen was Gwen the Ghost Spider-Man, that's why you asked for those ridiculous promises in front of me then!

Could it be that you led Gwen down this path?! What do you want to do? No... Should I say what do you want to do to Gwen? "

"Oh my God..."

In the face of George's questioning, Peter looked helpless.

"Director George, I can't believe you haven't learned anything after all this.

You are now like a parent who discovers that your child has made a mistake and immediately blames it on someone or something to blame.

You just made the same mistake, do you remember how you treated Ghost Spider-Man?

Although the case is full of doubts, you immediately define Ghost Spider-Man as the main suspect and go to great lengths to hunt her down.

Even an ordinary person who has seen the news will find that there are many unexplained problems.

Like where did the lizard monster that witnesses saw inside the school go, and why did Ghost Spider-Man kill a high school boy who was no threat to anyone in plain sight?

And the most important point is that if Ghost Spider-Man is a criminal, then she can obviously escape all pursuit or accusations as long as she changes her mask, or simply incognito, isn't this the meaning of masking? No one knows who you really are, and when you take off that mask, everything is none of your business, right?

But why did she bother to continue to wear that mask to do chivalry? "

Batman gently tapped the plastic bat helmet with his index finger on his temple, making a crisp sound of "buckle".

"Think about it, Chief George Stacy, think about it, how can you, as a police chief, overlook so many details? Or have you been handling the cases in your hands like this for more than ten years? "

George fell silent for a while, but Peter was not surprised.

"Because you preconceived everything and labeled Ghost Spider-Man a criminal, you're turning a blind eye to evidence that doesn't support your point of view."

As if it were now, you just asked who led Gwen down this path? Isn't the answer very obvious? I think that answer is in your mind, Chief George, can you tell me this answer? "

Pain gradually crept up George Stacy's face and invaded his heart, his eyes lit up with anger, he looked at Peter, but it lasted less than two seconds before he lowered his head and said in a small voice:

"Looks like I'm a bad father."

Peter nodded in agreement with George.

"I understand you did your best, but you are a terrible father.

Gwen embarked on this path because of your teachings, and because of Peter Parker's death, she understood the weight of this responsibility.

She is embarking on a heroic path full of thorns and tribulations.

And this road is what you chase behind her and force her to finally walk up. "

"Bang!"

This sentence was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the Glock pistol that was originally held tightly by George fell to the ground, making a dull sound, and his body also lost all strength, one of his hands was dead on his face, and the other hand supported the arm of the chair, and the whole person slumped on the wooden chair.

But he quickly broke free from the painful emotions, and he looked Peter directly into the eyes again, and said fiercely:

"All this is indeed my fault, I will try my best to make up for it and correct it, but I will never allow you to take advantage of Gwen!" So you better stay away from her, and that ring! You'd better explain it to me! What exactly is your relationship with Gwen! "

After saying that, it seemed that the inflatable valve of the deflated balloon had been released, and the whole person was instantly full of vitality, as if it was not the same person as the dejected middle-aged man a few seconds ago.

He picked up the Glock pistol that had fallen to the ground, carefully examined it and then stuffed it back into the holster, but his eyes seemed to be aimed at Peter, as if Peter would pull out his gun and shoot the next moment if he couldn't give a satisfactory answer.

Well?

Peter instantly felt his heart jump, and the memory of the dead Peter Parker suddenly came back to life, making him feel like he had returned to the past when he was finally reprimanded by the neighbor's Uncle George because he annoyed Gwen.

I'm not Peter Parker, I'm not Peter Parker, Peter Parker is dead!

Peter hinted several times in his mind before expelling the inexplicable tension from his brain.

Peter put his hands around his chest, relaxed his body, and finally recovered his feeling of being Batman, he no longer avoided George's eyes, stared at each other with the same dead eyes, and asked softly:

"You said you would make up for and correct mistakes, but you immediately made the same mistake, didn't you realize that you were denying Gwen's insistence, and her choice?

Although she is still very immature, she is a real hero, but you only see her as the part of your daughter, you still treat her as a child, and you want to make decisions for her. "

But this time George said without the slightest hesitation:

"This is my responsibility as a father, and I can't watch her in danger! What I regret is that I should not lead Gwen to this so-called 'heroic' path, I just want her to live an ordinary happy life.

If this was a mistake, then I'd rather be hated by Gwen Ji and make this mistake! "

Then George lowered his head, sighed and pleaded:

"So I hope you can stay away from Gwen in the future and keep her out of danger!" You've got her involved in an underworld struggle, and now the whole underworld is about to move, please don't let her go further and further down this path.

This is not an order from a police chief, but a plea from a father. "
