The Death Knell

Earth 616, New York, World Technology Expo venue, 7:00pm.

At this time, the exhibition hall of Osborne Industries was already in chaos. People were screaming and running, throwing away the Coke and balloons in their hands, even though Norman Osborne stood on the stage with a livid face to persuade everyone not to panic and not to panic. There was a stampede, but how could the people running for their lives listen to him?

The crowd rushed towards the gate, trying to escape to the adjacent Stark Exhibition Hall, thinking that perhaps Mr. Tony Stark's bodyguard Iron Man would save them there.

People don't like Tony, and they don't understand why Iron Man wants to work in Stark. But when their lives are threatened, their instinct will make them give up any dignity.

At this time, Osborne's venue was filled with electricity, and it looked like someone was about to die. Even if he wanted to take a video and post it on Twitter, he had to keep a safe distance, right?

But soon, some brave people discovered that everyone was saved, because the good neighbor of the New York people came. The figure in a red and blue uniform jumped from the ceiling and shot two balls of spiders at the weirdo who was covered in electricity. Silk.

"Stop it, Electro! Let's talk, don't settle everything with force, that's not good. Do you want to go get coffee? Or eat some batteries? Come on, relax man, let me gently Put you down."

The spider silk entangled the figure whose face could not be seen clearly in the light. The little insect clung to the silk thread, wrestling with the opponent like a tug of war.

It was said that he was brought down gently, but Peter was obviously putting all his effort into it. The muscles on his body were bulging and his feet were constantly slipping on the ground.

"You lied to me! Spider-Man! You all lied to me!"

The blue electric light burst out instantly, wrapping around all the surrounding metal objects like a silver snake. The audio and lighting equipment in the hall instantly exploded and burst into flames, with fireworks-like sparks spraying everywhere.

Electro used his elemental ability and escaped from the spider web, causing Spider-Man to fall onto his butt.

But he didn't pursue the victory, nor did he kill people at will. He just stood there and roared at the bug, venting his dissatisfaction.

"No! We are friends! Listen to me." Xiaochong dodged the flying sparks and jumped to the audience seat. He raised his hands to show his sincerity: "I really didn't expect the police to shoot you. They already know they were wrong now, but you have to give them a chance to apologize, right?"

"...Really?" The light on the Electron Man's body weakened a bit: "Then will Dr. Osborne also apologize to me?"

"Did he do anything sorry for you? Tell me and I will listen. The Spider Court will be held now. If he really did something wrong, I can ask him to change it."

Peter glanced at Uncle Norman on the stage. The expression on that familiar face was ugly at this time.

I don't know why, but it seems that after he appeared, his face became even more ugly, and a little green?

Maybe it's the firelight, well, it's definitely an illusion. The most important thing right now is to calm down the Electric Man first.

The person who pretended to be electric obviously liked Spider-Man very much. He was much calmer and actually talked about his grievances:

"On my birthday, I was working overtime without pay, but I was struck by lightning and injured outside the Osborne Building. The HR department not only refused to pay my medical bills, but... they also fired me! I I also have to live, if I don’t have a job, I’ll lose everything!”

Speaking of excitement, the Electron Man even choked up for a time, as if he was in great pain.

Peter nodded repeatedly, he probably understood that it was still about money.

But to put it another way, the key point is that the decision to expel was too hasty, right? An employee was injured on the job but was fired because he couldn't come to work?

"Mr. Osborne?" Peter squatted on the fence of the auditorium, holding his hands between his feet: "Your company's personnel department seems to be very loyal, and it has gone too far with the capitalist tricks."

"I had no idea about this!"

Norman clenched his fists. The microphone in his hand was also burned by the surge of electricity. It was still on fire, but he still held it in his hand. He didn't know why he was distracted.

Peter knew what Norman said was true. After all, he was Harry's father, and he often entertained him at home. He was a good person.

His subordinates must have deceived him, well, that's it.

"So, can you hire him again and give him some medical expenses?" Xiaochong shook his butt and adjusted his squatting posture: "The damage done here at today's venue can be deducted from his future salary."

Well, the destruction of the exhibition and the previous destruction of the streets were all the fault of the Dianguang people. They only needed to pay compensation in installments. No lives were lost anyway.

"I can!"

For some reason, Peter found that Uncle Norman seemed to be grinding his teeth and looked at him a little strangely.

Oh, it must be a matter of concern about public image, and also worries about the future prospects of the electric eel power generation project, I understand.

"Actually, you don't have to worry about whether the electric eel project will be adopted. After all, it is clean energy and the direction of future social development. At the same time, the electricity bill should be reduced a lot. At least it is good news for me."

Spider-Man jumped out of the auditorium, clapped his hands and walked towards Electro. He turned to talk to Norman, winking and speaking in a frivolous tone.

"snort!"

Only then did Norman realize that the microphone was on fire. He dropped the thing, snorted and turned away.

You must have agreed, right?

A smile appeared on Peter's face under the mask, and he waved to the electro-optical man: "Come on, friend, I will take you to the police station, explain the ins and outs of the situation a little, and make a registration."

"Wait, you called me friend, then do you know my name?" The electric man suddenly thought of something, and then made a stop gesture like a traffic policeman.

"Uh, of course, of course I know your name. We are friends, haha." Peter didn't know the other person's name at all. He wanted to make friends, but the electric man couldn't even see his facial features clearly: "Who are you? Well, right?"

While mumbling, Peter moved closer to him, wanting to limit the other party's elementalization at close range, that is, to sprinkle some water on the Electro.

"Who is it? Say my name, who am I?"

The Electric Man's body began to glow again, and his tone also showed violent fluctuations in emotions.

"That, that who, yes, is the one who studies electric eels in the Osborne Laboratory, right?" Peter quickened his pace, and his spider sense told him that something was wrong. He was a mental patient, and he seemed to have some kind of twisted feeling about himself. rely.

However......

"Liar! Spider-Man, you are a liar. I am an employee of the American Municipal Power Company! Not from the Osborne Group! You don't even know my name! Nor are you my friend!"

The electro-optical man cried out, and then launched a frantic attack on Peter. After a few seconds, the entire Osborne exhibition hall was turned into ruins in the white electric light like a Tunguska explosion.
