With Helen gone, Peter could finally put on his clothes.
Wearing new clothes, Peter followed Kai into an office a little uneasily. Only then did Peter notice that this was actually Stark Tower.
"If Tony hadn't discovered you in time yesterday, you might have died." Kai lit a cigar, and the smoke obscured Kai's face, making Peter even more uneasy. "Tell me, what were you doing yesterday?"
Peter's condition was really bad yesterday. According to Tony, when he arrived, he happened to see Peter smashing into the Hudson River like a depth charge. To make matters worse, the Hudson River isn't very deep, so by the time Tony rushed into the water to rescue Peter, the guy was already buried in the mud!
If Tony arrives a little late, there will be no Spider-Man in New York tomorrow.
Peter hesitated, but decided to tell the truth.
"Matt and I were tracking the group of people selling alien weapons. I was about to catch that person... but he was rescued. So I went after him... but I didn't expect that it would end up like this. ”
Peter finished telling the story in confusion, although it was almost like he didn't say anything.
Kai pouted: "I remember I was investigating this case."
Peter became even more uneasy: "Yes sir. I'm sorry, sir."
"Then why do you think that I can't handle this case well and need your help instead?" Kai became more aggressive.
"I'm sorry, sir." Faced with Kai's forcefulness, Peter became a yes man.
Seeing Peter's head almost stuck in his crotch, Kai stopped pursuing the victory.
"I can understand your thoughts, Peter." Kai softened his tone and was no longer so harsh: "But you must face up to a problem. You are just a high school student, a high school student who doesn't understand anything yet!"
After speaking, Kai handed him a newspaper.
There is no doubt that the headliner is none other than Spider-Man.
But this time it's not a compliment, it's a criticism throughout. Many of the words and sentences made Peter feel a fire burning in his chest. It was not the excitement after being inspired, but a kind of shame.
In comparison, it's like a desperate author looking at his own book review section.
Those merciless criticisms, all-new scoldings, and well-founded bad reviews.
Peter himself suspected that he might not be a heroic superhero, but a criminal with a lot of crimes.
He was frightened.
"Yesterday, because of your recklessness, the police station received hundreds of calls and thousands of complaints. Although I didn't understand why they went to the police station to complain if they had problems with you. But obviously, you yesterday It’s not very good.”
Kay didn't exaggerate or hide anything for Peter.
"I'm sorry, sir." Peter didn't even know what was wrong with him. He seemed to be unable to speak and could only say this.
"No need to say sorry to me." Kai waved his hand calmly. "I only have one request. After I go back, have a good sleep and forget these things. Study honestly."
Peter raised his head sharply.
What did he want to say.
But seeing Kai's calm eyes, Peter lowered his head dejectedly.
"Yes, sir."
…
"That's it?" Tony looked at Peter who left dejectedly, and looked at Kai in surprise.
"Otherwise?" Kai seemed more surprised than him: "What did you want me to say?"
"This kid is pretty good. I don't think he should have to suffer this." Tony looked at the newspaper on the table and said angrily.
"You also said that he is a child. There are some things that he does not need to do. Otherwise, what should we adults do?" Kai was noncommittal. After speaking, Kai sneered and said: "Besides, do you think he is you? If he continues like this, he will receive even more criticism from the Council!"
"What's wrong with me?" Tony shouted dissatisfied.
"Hmph, if you weren't the boss of Stark Group, do you think your situation would be any better than Peter's?"
To be honest, when it comes to willfulness, no one can compare to Tony except the Hulk. Every time this guy goes out, he causes a lot of trouble, such as demolishing other people's homes and destroying other people's cars.
But the problem is, he has money. He has a professional team to wipe his ass, unlike Peter who can only fight on his own when he causes trouble. He doesn't have the money to pay compensation. Ordinary people don't care whether you are catching a thief or not. He only knows that he has suffered a loss and he has no one to accompany him. If he doesn't scold Spider-Man, who will he scold?
The same is true for Kai. He also has a professional team to help him deal with the aftermath. Although generally speaking, Kai will not make trouble, but killing too many people is not good. At this time, the role of the public relations team appears.
In short, Tony and Kay can be famous all over New York without any bad comments. It's not that they are really saints, but... they are rich!
So real!
Tony was choked and decided not to continue the topic. Is it wrong that he has money after all? That's right. If you don’t use your money, isn’t your money in vain? So, he didn't think there was any problem at all. I even think that everyone is happy with this.
You see, he's out of trouble.
And those whose interests were harmed also received satisfactory compensation.
The media and the government will also be compensated by lobbying groups.
A happy situation has been formed, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
"By the way, I've already made what you asked for." Tony said and gave Kai something like an electronic watch, a bit like the later Apple Watch.
"Thanks."
…
Regardless of Kai's side, the camera turned back to Adrian.
Bryce was sent back to the factory where they were.
When he woke up, everyone else was already there. Everyone said nothing, just looked at Bryce quietly.
Bryce saw that no matter how stupid these people were, he knew that what they had done had been exposed.
Seeing his man lowering his head and saying nothing, Adrian felt very irritated.
"Why?"
"I'm short of money." Bryce knew he couldn't deny it.
"Lack of money?" Adrian felt a little ridiculous: "Is it unfair for me to share the money? Is it less for you?"
Although Adrian was the boss, he never planned to take the majority of the profits himself, leaving only some leftovers for his brothers. After all, this is a beheading business. If you don't be generous, something may happen at any time due to uneven distribution. Adrian thought about this very clearly.
Basically, he gets 25% of all profits, the tinker gets 12%, and Schultz gets 10% because he relied on him to open the market in the first place. The other brothers basically get 25%. Can get more than 5%.
There are not many of them, and every business deal can earn at least tens of thousands of dollars in the hands of one person!
After all, their costs are very small and they are expensive to sell, so the profits are naturally huge.
Calculating this, in a few years, even those who take the smallest amount can accumulate a net worth of at least several million.
But now Bryce actually told him that he was short of money!
Isn't this a joke!
You know, just a few years ago, no one here except Adrian himself had a deposit of more than $100... Why didn't anyone say they were short of money at that time? Nowadays, everyone has a net worth of at least millions of dollars, but they are short of money. What the hell is this?
"No... I want to pay off my gambling debt." Bryce didn't hide anything and confessed very happily.
This guy becomes bad when he has money. Although this is a bit of a generalization, it still makes sense, especially for people like them who can make money quickly.
Because money comes too easily and too quickly. He didn't find it difficult to make money at all. It's natural to be lavish.
And whether they are black or not, they all have the same virtues. Once you have money, you like to gather your friends and spend money together to have fun.
So does Bryce.
Considering the environment in which Bryce grew up, how many good birds can he know?
After going back and forth, I didn't learn anything else. I basically learned all those bad habits. If you just drink and take drugs to pick up girls, it won't actually cost you much. (The price of drugs in the United States is actually very close to the people, because it is easy to get, and the government is not very enthusiastic about cracking down on drugs, so it is naturally cheap. Therefore, there are very few people in the United States who say that drug addiction goes bankrupt. Most of them just kill people directly. suck to death)
But he was led to become addicted to gambling.
The cost of this thing is much higher than drug addiction! After all, there is no cap, especially since this guy Bryce has a bad mind. He also likes to go to those underground casinos. It is not easy to be cheated in such places.
Of course Bryce doesn't feel like he's being tricked.
He also won, winning hundreds of thousands in one night!
But in the end they all lost.
He just felt that he was out of luck.
Adrian is going to be pissed off!
He knew that Bryce had a group of helpers, and he also persuaded them. There are not many good people in this thing, they are all vampires. But Bryce felt that they were all his brothers.
Adrian didn't bother to persuade him. The money was his own. What could Adrian do?
Unexpectedly, Bryce would reach this point.
Moreover, Adrian quickly thought of another possibility.
"Who taught you to steal?"
Bryce shook his head: "No one taught me!"
"Fake! Tell the truth! How do you know those gangsters?" Adrian didn't believe it at all. Bryce has had a bad mind since he was a child. Except for Adrian and others, no one is willing to play with him. He is a typical example of a father who doesn't care for his mother. The reason Adrian pulled him over in the first place was because he felt pity for him and he wasn't in any trouble, so he really didn't know much about the people in the gang. Someone definitely needs help with matchmaking!
Bryce seemed very loyal at the moment, but he refused to say who helped him.
Adrian was pissed off!
He walked directly to Bryce, took off his iron fist glove, and threw it to Schultz.
"Go! Find his followers and kill them all! By the way, recover those stolen weapons. Those are all money!"
Schultz glanced at Bryce and nodded.
Unexpectedly, Bryce, an idiot, still didn't understand. He stopped in front of Schultz and shouted: "They don't know about us! You can't touch them!"
Bryce was actually quite miserable. He was not popular since he was a child, but he managed to make money easily. He has a large group of brothers. Those brothers are nice to talk to and all of them are loyal. Why doesn't he defend them? After all, even though he was poor, those brothers did not abandon him. What is this but loyalty?
Since the brothers are loyal, he can't do anything!
So you touch my brother?
no!
Bryce is actually more willing to be with his brothers than with Adrian and the others.
The reason is not responsible, that is, he is with those brothers, he is the boss, everyone flatters him and fawns over him. This was a feeling he had never experienced in his first thirty years of life! And what about being with Adrian and the others?
Even if they bring him along to make money, he is still a dispensable little brother.
"Don't worry about him! He will stay here from now on. He can't go anywhere." Adrian was not interested in hearing what Bryce had to say.
"How dare you!!! If you dare to touch them, I will go to the police station and report you!!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was confused.
Nima, are you speaking human language?
I am bringing you to make money, and you actually want to report us for a few blood-sucking gangsters?
What the hell kind of logic is this.
This is the difference in mutual understanding.
For Bryce, he is the boss, and it is natural for him to protect his younger brother. But to others, Bryce is just a little brother, the insignificant kind. If you pull him to make a fortune, you are looking up to him!
Adrian thought he heard wrongly, so he asked again.
As a result, Bryce had already taken advantage of him and felt that he was extremely righteous.
Then it was repeated.
Now everyone's expressions changed.
Because they heard that this idiot was serious!
Adrian lowered his head, feeling that all his good intentions were lost to the dog. Bryce stole things and cheated on them behind their backs, but he didn't care about it, and even planned to put him under house arrest for a while. These are all looking at the friendship from the past.
In fact, it's not that Adrian has never thought about killing Bryce. After all, if a team comes up with such a thing, if they are not severely punished, there is no guarantee that someone will imitate him in the future.
But at the end of the day, he hesitated.
It's easy to say, but we are all brothers who eat from the same pot.
But now it seems to your mother that his kindness was just a waste of time.
"BOSS." A younger brother looked over.
They are not Bryce, so they are not that clear. They know very well that if they don't kill those gangsters, their affairs may be exposed at any time. When the time comes, not only will the business be finished, each of them will be lucky to be able to get out of prison in their lifetime!
And looking at Bryce's condition, he is no longer trustworthy.
It doesn't matter if he is just saying it or if he really wants to report them.
This person can’t stay!
It is not surprising that people can do anything for their own glory and wealth.
What's more, they feel they are morally defensible.
Adrian looked at his brothers and found that they were all looking at him, with a dangerous glint in their eyes.
He got it. What everyone thinks.
"Bryce...do you know?" Adrian picked up a weapon from the tinker's workbench. "You are fired."
Buzz!
After a ray of light.
Bryce completely disappeared from the world, leaving only a pile of ashes.
The effect of this weapon not only shocked Adrian, but also the people standing around Bryce.
"Fake...I thought this thing was a laser gun!"
"No! The laser gun is over there, it's a melta weapon!" The tinker looked helpless as he looked at the electric sparks dancing around him.
This thing is the weapon that the tinker has been researching recently. The only disadvantage of this thing is that it requires too much energy. Ordinary energy batteries cannot meet the energy consumption at all, so he plans to use an ionization inverter to meet its consumption through high-voltage electricity.
It's a pity that it hasn't been debugged yet, but after Adrian did this, all the equipment was overloaded...
