American Comics: The Law of Strength

Chapter 71: Gordon is better

Watching Peter Parker's uncle, who he once admired, now bow to him for his daughter Gwen, Peter's feelings are very complicated.

What happened tonight was completely unexpected for Peter.

He was originally planning to sell Gwen a favor tonight and improve his favorability in the future so that he could be drawn into his team.

Unexpectedly, Gwen did not choose to leave after getting out of the crisis, and the items originally used to "escape" gave her courage to face her fear and take off her mask in front of her father.

And George's seemingly gentle performance is actually more intense than Gwen, it should be said that they really deserve to be a father and daughter.

If George Stacy is rejected at this moment, then Peter can fully foresee that he will replace Gwen as the number one public enemy of the police department in the future.

Although he probably was, at least he was not a criminal, and all the police did not dare to take any action against him because of Peter's public popularity.

But once George sees him as a thorn in his side, all his future actions will inevitably be focused on by the police.

Moreover, George's attitude at this time made Peter really unable to refuse this uncle who was once regarded as a family by Peter Parker.

"Hah..."

Peter sighed helplessly, and finally had to say heavily:

"Sorry, I refuse your request."

"You damn it..."

George suddenly raised his head, his eyes shot a sharp light, his right hand had reached for the beloved Glock pistol in the holster, and he vowed to let Gwen escape the clutches of the bastard in front of him even if he broke through the bottom line that he had been guarding in his heart!

"Bang!"

The dull voice sounded again, and Chief George's love gun once again smashed heavily on the floor, fortunately, the pistol was well-made, and George's careful maintenance on weekdays, and the pistol that smashed the floor twice did not fire.

But George had no intention of caring about his own gun, he looked at the person in front of him dumbfounded, and even couldn't help but rub his eyes, and then patted his head, remembering whether today was April Fool's Day or some hell heart disease induction day.

Because in front of him, Peter was calmly holding the plastic Batman helmet in his hand and tossing it up and down, Peter did not take the initiative to speak, just waiting for George to digest the situation in front of him.

"He... Peter? Are you Peter Parker? No... This... I obviously personally watched the burial, are you a clone? Or some kind of ghost or something? "

"Well, I'm a clone."

"That's right..."

George Stacy breathed a sigh of relief, then picked up the pistol again and aimed it at Peter.

"What a fart! You bastard, hurry up and give me an honest explanation! Who are you?! "

And in the distance began to faintly sound sirens, Peter put his helmet on again, and then held his head with one hand, frowning and recalling:

"About three years ago, you secretly encouraged me to get closer to Gwen, I was afraid of being bullied by Gwen, so I asked you to promise that you would be optimistic about Gwen, and you said at the time that I would believe you, although you don't make promises, but you will do what you say."

As a result, I kissed Gwen on her birthday that year, and she beat her all over the house, and you and Uncle Ben and Aunt May were laughing and watching the play...

And then two years ago..."

George's face gradually became embarrassed with Peter's accusation, and before Peter could finish speaking, he quickly interrupted:

"Okay, okay! I see, you are Peter Parker himself, just... I couldn't accept it for a while... God, Peter, it's been a long time since your funeral, you... Can you tell me what happened at that time? "

"Like Gwen said, it's a complicated situation that I can't explain in detail, but one thing I can guarantee is that she is indeed innocent, although she did kill me."

George's face suddenly became very strange, he looked Peter up and down again, and asked incredulously:

"So... Are you really dead? "

"That's right, and then I crawled out of the grave again, but don't worry, this is not a cliché B-grade zombie movie, I am completely alive, and now I am in good physical condition, but my fertility has been affected a little."

"Well..."

George frowned, rubbing his temples with one hand while stuffing the pistol back into the holster, everything that happened in two hours tonight was comparable to a whole set of family emotional dramas at eight o'clock in the morning, which made him unable to slow down for a while.

Although he had thousands of questions he wanted to ask at the moment, only one was left on his lips in the end.

"I can't believe you're still alive, Peter, are you doing well all this time?"

"Not bad."

Peter stood up, pushed the chair back into place, looked at the ambulances and police cars speeding in the distance, and said while counting the time:

"Uncle George, the reason why I identify myself is just to make it clear to you that I will not hurt Gwen or use her to do anything bad.

On the other hand, I also want to prove to you that Gwen is indeed innocent, and someday in the future, I will prove this to others, just not now, so I want you to keep my identity a secret. "

George also got up, he weakly stepped forward to hold Peter's arm, and asked urgently:

"What about your Uncle Ben and Aunt May? They are all heartbroken by your death, at least you should meet them and let them know that you are still there..."

"Impossible."

Peter interrupted George with a sigh.

"I'm not actually afraid of revealing my identity, even if the public knows my identity.

But the reason I kept wearing this helmet was because of three people, except for the government and careerists who might want to explore the secrets of my resurrection.

Uncle Ben, Aunt May, and Gwen.

I told Gwen she wasn't ready to face you, and I wasn't ready to face them. "

"Well... I can understand, but you kids are really amazing, the days you and Gwen sat around playing Lego seemed to happen yesterday, and in the blink of an eye, you grew up and became..."

George looked at Peter's Batman helmet, couldn't think of an adjective for a long time, and finally had to shake his head and smile bitterly, and then he glanced at the Ring of Dolan in Peter's hand covertly, and coughed lightly twice.

"So Gwen still doesn't know your true identity?"

This time, it was Peter's turn to smile wryly.

"According to the custom, she will beat me to death first when she knows it, and this time it must be really killed."

"yes... This is indeed what the girl will do, and I don't know who it looks like. "

Peter glanced at George's gun, rolled his eyes, and then pulled George away from his hand and helped him back to the wooden chair.

"Okay, so that's the end of today's show.

By the way, Gwen should have been frightened by the threat you just made, she left a note at home, now that the person has slipped to Diane's house, she should be staying for a while, you don't have to worry, I will take care of her. "

George frowned, just about to say something, but then he suddenly realized something, and his expression immediately became ugly.

"You're still spying on her?!"

"It's not just her, I'm still watching the lady who caused this riot, and my dear employer, it's more of a protection than a surveillance."

George was shocked by Peter's righteous honesty for a moment, and for a while he didn't know what to say, and finally had to cry and laugh and praise:

"I think you're about to surpass the real Batman."

Peter pushed open the door of the backstage, passed by the arriving police and doctors, and then responded mockingly:

"Then you need to work harder, whether as a father or as a police chief, you are far worse than Gordon."

George was stunned for a while, he watched Peter's figure walk towards the outside of the campus, and finally got on the bus and disappeared from his sight.

I don't know if the scene of Batman riding the bus is too dramatic, or the joke left by Peter at the end cuts to George's laughter, and George "puffs" out laughing after being silent for a long time.

And the more he laughed, the more intense he became, and finally he laughed irrepressibly.

The officers who came to support looked at each other in front of the laughing George, and one of them picked up the walkie-talkie, looked in the direction of the departed Batman, and whispered:

"I think we might need a psychiatrist, and our chief seems to have been turned into a clown by Batman..."
