This choice was a test for the young Harry. As a businessman, the business was in front, and the people were behind. Many people had been in business for a long time, and only the businessmen were left.
However, most of the businessmen had a vested interest in controlling a large amount of wealth and resources in this society. In the story of Spider-man from another time and space, Uncle Ben Parker said to Peter before he died: The greater the power, the greater the responsibility.
As a businessman who controlled most of the resources in this society, especially someone like Harry, who was already at the top of the pyramid of the entire human society. His every move could profoundly change the fate of many people. Therefore, he needed to be more cautious.
After a long silence, Harry's voice was a little hoarse. "I need to disclose all this. Regardless of whether the company's stock will fall. Some wrong things must be exposed, even if it will cause temporary pain. "
Peter sat next to Harry and patted him on the shoulder. "You did the right thing, Harry. You need to set an example for others. The Osborne Group should not touch any illegal business. "
"Don't be so depressing, you two." Li Jie said, trying to change the somewhat depressing atmosphere. "Crisis, crisis, there is opportunity. We are just anticipating the worst outcome. But this doesn't mean we have to unconditionally accept this worst outcome. After all, we still have to make all kinds of efforts. "
"This is a complete plan. In addition to finding the Great Mouse in the East Ocean, Harry, you also have to prepare for a crisis PR. As long as it is handled properly, this is even a very good opportunity. "Li Jie patted the two on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Just as they were chatting, Li Jie's tablet received a new message.
[The message has been conveyed to Logen, Logen asked to meet as soon as possible.] This was the message from the Innocence Society, which was encrypted and forwarded by Ceng Chu in New York.
"It seems that Wolverine still cares if the child is his." Li Jie raised the tablet in his hand. "I will go talk to him. Maybe he'll try to save the child. "
"On top of that, we still have to face Logen's old flame, Mariko Yashita, in the East Ocean. It's best to let Logen help entangle that woman. Yasuda Eiji needs her to kill me. "
The meeting with Wolverine Logen was arranged by the Pure Truth Society at the izakaya that Li Jie and Peter had visited last time.
Logen's complexion didn't look very good. His brows were furrowed and he seemed to have a lot on his mind. Before Li Jie arrived, he had already finished three 500ml bottles of Big Brew.
Although the alcohol content of the wine was only around 20%, it wasn't considered a strong liquor. However, it was rare to see people like Logen who drank sake like water.
"Don't you want to eat something before drinking? Drinking on an empty stomach isn't good for your stomach. " When Li Jie arrived at the izakaya, he found that Logen was drinking. Without much greeting, Li Jie sat directly next to him.
"Give me some chicken kebabs and a grilled octopus foot." Li Jie didn't hesitate to order what he wanted to eat at the izakaya's owner.
This izakaya was the property of the Pure Truth Society. Today, for the meeting between Li Jie and Logen, a closed business sign had been hung outside. Therefore, there were only two people in the entire izakaya, Li Jie and Logen. Oh, there was also a boss and chef who was responsible for the reception. He was also a member of the Pure Truth Society.
When the owner of the izakaya heard Li Jie's order, he bowed slightly to him and then went to the kitchen to prepare. This could also be considered as Li Jie using this method to send the boss away.
"Is the news you sent true?" Logen didn't have the desire to chat with Li Jie and went straight to the point. "My son? I don't remember having a son. "
"Is that so, Logen." Li Jie took out a small wine glass from the izakaya's bar and directly picked up Logen's sake and poured himself a glass. "You don't know the woman named Yashita Mariko?"
Li Jie took a sip of Daisuyin and took a deep breath, savoring the sweet taste and aftertaste of the sake.
Speaking of Mariko, Logen's frown deepened a little. His relationship with Mariko was not the kind of relationship that the whole world knew. Moreover, it had been more than ten years since he last came to the East Ocean, and the story with Mariko also happened more than ten years ago. Now that Nightcrawler said that he had a relationship with Mariko, it was very likely that what he said was true.
"I've seen that child." Li Jie stopped after drinking a glass of sake. He was not a heavy drinker, and he preferred to maintain a clear mind. Getting drunk was not a good idea.
"There are many mutants in this world who have the ability to heal themselves, but it's almost impossible to find a second one as strong as you. Even Dr. Hank and Professor Xavier were amazed by your recovery ability. "Li Jie pointed at Wolverine's muscles.
"No matter how serious your injuries are, you can quickly recover. This is not an ordinary ability. That's why I immediately thought of you when I saw that child. "
Logen took another big gulp of sake and asked. "What did you see?"
"Self-healing ability. Super strong self-healing ability. It's astonishing that it's on par with you. He cut off four of his fingers, cut them off at the root, and then quickly recovered in less than ten seconds. There were no signs of injury, and it didn't look like it was caused by some kind of genetic mutation drug because there were no side effects. "
Li Jie recalled the boy's appearance that day. "Moreover, that boy is of mixed Yellow and White blood. There are obvious signs of mixed East Ocean people and European and American people. It's hard for me not to think of you. That's why I told someone to tell you the news. "
Logen's eyes flashed with a look of reminiscence. He began to reminisce about his experience in the East Ocean. Come to think of it, what Li Jie said might be true. He had spent quite a long period of time with Mariko in the past.
Thinking of this, Logan's eyes lit up, but it quickly dimmed. So what if she had a child? Since Mariko did not tell him, it must be because she did not want him to meet the child.
To put it bluntly, the current Logen was living like a vagabond. If he had not barely managed to become a history teacher among the mutants, there was a 99% chance that he would still be fighting in an underground boxing ring in Canada.
That was why Logen's initial happiness quickly turned into desolation. He took a deep breath and said. "Is that so? Thank you for telling me the news. At least it's worth a drink. Here's a toast to you. Thank you for bringing me such a good news. "
Li Jie looked at Logen's reaction and was surprised by his calmness. It was as if he did not care about the child. Then, he drank a glass of wine with Logan. He lowered his head and thought for a while. He seemed to have thought of something. So he spoke again.
"You don't care about the child? If he is really your son. "
"There will be people who care about him. I'm not one of them."
"Don't tell me you think he cut his finger for no reason just to test how strong his recovery ability is? Or is he a masochist? "Li Jie asked Logen in a questioning tone.
Hearing Li Jie's words, Logen realized that things might not be as simple as he thought. "Or do you think your genes can prevent you from feeling pain when you are injured?"
