Peter? Parker was in trouble. There was no doubt about it. Now it just depended on how much influence this trouble could have.
New York City had not been peaceful recently, and the superhero world had not been peaceful recently.
Let's not talk about the global news of Captain America suing the US military. Another piece of news that broke out in the last two days also received strong attention from New Yorkers.
His lawyer, Lou Carr, questioned the Spider-man's arrest of New Yorker Mike Mahon (the convenience store robber) on TV news.
Not only did he point the finger at the Spider-man for illegally arresting citizens, but he also implicated the New York Police. He believed that it was their excessive indulgence and inaction that allowed the hippie in red and blue tights to wander around New York City every day to do whatever he wanted.
According to Lou Carr. "The Spider-man thinks he is the law and he can arrest anyone he wants. As long as he swoops down and ties spider silk to the suspect he identifies, the police will obediently take the person 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 the criminals that the police can't catch, so the New York Police have already bowed down to him! "
Lou Carr's words could be said to be very, very damaging. Not only did he expand the problem of the Spider-man, but he also used this method to completely tear apart the relationship between the Spider-man and the police, which was already in a delicate state.
For a time, the argument of whether the New York Police was useless, and whether the police would directly detain the Spider-man or other superheroes who arrested criminals, and whether they were 100% convinced that they were guilty, had a huge problem.
George? Stancy really wanted to open his mouth in front of the media. But as the image of the New York City Police, he had to make as reasonable an explanation as possible at the press conference and keep smiling.
Keep smiling, keep smiling! To hell with it! Keep smiling. George? Stancy vented his anger with a sandbag in the police activity room. He punched the sandbag as if he was punching the Spider-man.
The media kept harping on the Spider-man issue, and the New York Police were also being investigated by Peter? Parker was dragged into this. George? Stancy had never been so angry before. A few of his best agents had submitted their resignations to him today.
The job of the New York City Police was getting harder and harder. George felt extremely stressed at work today. He wanted to go home earlier.
At least he would feel warm at home. There was his gentle and virtuous wife and his beautiful and smart daughter. But when he thought of his daughter, George got angry again. Her daughter's boyfriend was coming over for dinner.
Okay, Peter? It wasn't the first time Parker had visited Gwen's house. If he wanted to have a date with Gwen in the evening, he would have to come to Gwen's house and yell at her parents.
Today, the atmosphere at Gwen's dining table was eerily quiet. George didn't want to talk. Peter, who was usually talkative, didn't want to talk either. He didn't go on a date with Gwen today.
Gwen just invited him over for dinner and to do homework together in the evening for a casual chat.
But Peter, who was usually very happy, had a lot on his mind today. George? Stancy silently ate the sea bass made by his wife and stared at Peter with a murderous look. This made Peter even more restless.
"Dad, how was work today?" Gwen wanted to break the awkward situation. But maybe she made the wrong decision.
"It was terrible, Gwen. Did you see today's news? What did the media say about us?" George finally didn't have to stare at Peter with a murderous look. This made him sigh in relief.
"They belittled the police to the point that they were worthless. They thought everything was done by Spider-man. The police didn't do anything. Seriously. I just want to arrest Spider-man as soon as possible now! He keeps breaking the rules and illegally arresting all kinds of people. Who gave him the right to do that! He's not a cop! "
George almost roared the last sentence. It was very loud. Even Gwen was frightened by him. She had never seen her father so rude. At least in front of her and her mother, her father always had a kind face. He was a good husband and a good father.
"I'm sorry. I was rude." George also felt that he spoke too loudly. "Today, four of the best agents under me have resigned, and I have no choice but to resign. The New York Police lost another important force. I shouldn't have been angry at you. I'm sorry. "
George said with a bit of disappointment. Gwen and her mother hugged George gently. "It's okay. It'll get better."
Peter was also upset by today's news, especially when he heard George wanted to arrest Spider-man. He felt very awkward. He wanted to ease the atmosphere. "Uncle George, I think Spider-man just wants to help."
"You said it yourself. New York's best officers resigned. Wouldn't Spiderman's help lighten your workload a little? "He tried to make his words as light as possible.
"Help?" George looked at Peter Parker in disbelief. Parker. "You don't know anything, Peter. You don't know anything. "
"Spider-man's actions aren't helping the New York Police. He's making trouble! He's making trouble for our work. "
Peter didn't agree with George's point of view. "Hey, really. I think he just wants to help. "
"Yeah, he really helped us a lot. Last month at the docks, he arrested 15 gang members who traded guns. That's the information we got after three months. Because of that, the people in charge of the case worked overtime and didn't go home for three weeks! "George said to Peter Parker in a serious tone. Parker said.
"They were waiting for the moment to catch all the criminals! But when they took action, they found out that all the criminals had already been arrested. Spider-man was the one who caught them. He even left a note telling everyone not to thank him. "
"Maybe he just wanted to make a joke." Peter explained.
"Really? This joke made a good detective who has been a police officer for 15 years quit. "George stared into Peter's eyes and said. This kind of sharp gaze made Peter want to avoid it.
"Do you know, as a police officer, what makes these people willing to pay such a high price to arrest criminals?"
"It's a sense of mission, a sense of responsibility, a sense of honor, and a sense of achievement. All the honest police officers who are committed to eliminating criminals rely on this to have the motivation to work without sleep, just to arrest the criminals and restore peace to society! "
"You have to know, the police's salary isn't that high. Especially in the face of those vicious criminals who could kill at any time. This low salary seems so insignificant. "
"If you want to make money, the private security companies are willing to spend a lot of money to hire those excellent police officers. They can give much better treatment than the New York City Police Department! "
"And Spider-man took away all this. He used a despicable method to steal the honor that should belong to these police officers. He used other people's achievements to crown himself! "
"I don't deny that Spider-man did do some good things. But in my opinion, these things are just to satisfy his vanity. And that sense of justice that has no place to put it. "
"Peter, you have to understand one thing. Everyone in this world needs a sense of identity, a sense of achievement, and a sense of honor. Spider-man isn't the only one who needs it. He satisfied his own sense of achievement, but he took away the sense of achievement that belongs to others. "
"He is a superhero, yes. However, as a superhero, he had destroyed even more ordinary heroes. Those heroes who live simple lives, but are contributing to this world. "George said to Peter in a sad tone.
"Most of them may be unknown their whole lives, and the halo of all of them combined won't be as dazzling as Spider-man. But they are irreplaceable in this world. "
"If the price of making a superhero like Spider-man is to destroy countless heroes who live ordinary lives, then I will put Spider-man in prison!"
