Chapter 193 The Adventures of Thor (Part 2)
"I think... we may be in some trouble." Peter turned around and said to Thor next to him.
Because now, they are facing these vicious hooligans, who are very common in game halls and blackmail junior students.
The group of people Peter met had six or seven people, and they were habitual offenders. They took advantage of the time when the store owner was buying goods from the back door and directly found Peter who was closest to the door.
"Look here, why is there a poor kid with his dad in such a place? What, did he lose the fighting game so badly and cry and go back to his parents?"
"Hahahaha!"
Although they look older than Peter, Spider-Man, who has experienced so many things, is much more mature than them. He shrugged and said, "No matter how good or bad I am at the game, at least I don't have to blackmail others here."
The blond thug in the lead was about to get angry, and the lackey next to him said, "Look, he is still wearing a Captain America commemorative T-shirt, which must be pirated. He made him so dirty, a poor boy who crawled out of the mud pit, forget it, let's change someone..."
Peter just thought they were childish, but Thor couldn't stand their arrogant attitude. He waved his fist and said, "Didn't your parents teach you to speak politely?!"
In Thor's opinion, Peter is a child, and he is an adult. Now this group of people obviously want to bully the child, so he should protect Peter.
"Where are you from, country bumpkin? Your accent is heavier than a sheepdog in the countryside. Go back to your farm and plow the fields instead of hanging around in New York!"
Thor didn't understand what he was saying, but he knew it was definitely not a good thing. The prince of Asgard was not without temper. He raised his fist and was about to hit him.
The gangsters on the opposite side also took up their positions, ready to beat him up.
Though Thor was tall and strong, the gangsters who dared to blackmail him were not bad either. Two of them were as tall as Thor, both nearly two meters tall, so they were not afraid of him.
"Wait! Thor, don't fight here, there's..."
Before Peter finished speaking, several people fought in a group.
The battle-hardened Asgard warrior was certainly not comparable to these street gangsters. He first punched a shorter gangster on the left and knocked him down. Then he bent down to avoid the hook punch from the big guy on the right, kicked him in the stomach, and kicked him out.
As a result, the blond gang leader picked up a chair from the side and smashed it on Thor's head. At this moment, Peter grabbed his wrist and threw the chair out of his hand.
"Stop fighting! Don't..."
Then, Thor also picked up a chair and swung it directly at the other party. The other party was not willing to be outdone and pushed down the game console in front of him. Thor dodged back, staggered two steps, and then threw the chair at the man.
He hit it very accurately. The man was hit directly by the chair on the game console behind him. The game console fell to the ground, and several nearby ones were also implicated.
There was a younger student sitting in front of one of the games. When the game console fell, he didn't have time to hide and was directly pressed under it.
The child screamed, and Peter hurried over, lifted the game console, and rescued him. As a result, he found that his arm had hit the table of the game console and was slightly fractured.
At this time, a gunshot rang out, and the arcade owner came back. The gangsters fled, leaving only Peter and Thor who helped rescue people.
"Look at what you did!" The boss came over fiercely, and Peter stood in front of Thor, blocking Thor who wanted to fight with the boss.
"Sorry, boss! We didn't mean it. They wanted to blackmail us. We just fought back. We will compensate you for your losses, but can you help fix the child's arm? He seems to have a fracture..."
Peter is a regular customer here. When the boss saw it was him, he didn't say anything. In the end, Peter paid the money and sent the child to a clinic in Manhattan to pay for his medical expenses.
When the child's parents came over, Peter apologized to them. Although the other party did not pursue it, they were obviously very unhappy. They regarded Peter as a bad boy who fought and didn't give him a good face.
Thor was furious when he came out of the clinic. He said, "There are no rules on your Earth! Those villains who wanted to bully others were not punished, but you had to pay the money. If it was in Asgard...
"What would happen in Asgard? I guess they would apologize to you in a hurry. Whether it's the perpetrator, the child affected, or their parents, they would definitely come to your house to apologize, but that's because you are a prince..."
Thor didn't understand what he heard again. He said to Peter, "That's because I was right. I stopped those people from bullying others!"
"But you also affected innocent people. Before you started, I reminded you not to fight there. There are many elementary school students in that arcade. Once a fight breaks out, children will definitely get hurt..."
"I am doing justice!"
Peter sighed, and said in a complicated tone: "I never thought that one day I would dissuade others like this, even though I thought so before."
"But later I found that doing good things also requires methods. Blindly upholding justice is no different from sabotage. It is difficult to get good results, and it may even cause a lot of trouble. In the end, others will have to clean up the mess for me."
Peter looked at Thor and said: "I know you are the prince of Asgard. Your parents can definitely handle the troubles you have caused. My friends are the same. There is no trouble they can't handle."
"But I found that I can't always run to uphold justice so rashly, then hurt innocent people, make a lot of messy troubles, and then let others clean up my ass. This will make me a burden to others."
"Uphold justice?" Thor looked at Peter and seemed to be very unconvinced that his small body could uphold justice.
Peter also understood Thor's look. He sighed and stopped. Thor also stopped with him. Peter glanced at the intersection where he was standing. There was a big truck parked there.
The tires of this heavy truck were almost higher than Peter, but Peter stretched out a hand, grabbed the groove of the tire of the big truck, and gently lifted it up. The tires on the side of the big truck left the ground dozens of centimeters directly.
Thor's eyes widened. As soon as Peter let go, the truck fell to the ground, and the ground shook. Thor walked forward and lifted it up in the same way. The truck did not move at all, which means that this truck is really heavy for ordinary people.
He scratched his head and said in confusion: "How long have I not been here? Human cubs have evolved to this point?"
"Cub? I'm not a cub! I have a driver's license, and I have a girlfriend!"
Thor snorted and said: "Your body size is a cub in Asgard, and you are the kind of child who is less than 300 years old."
"3...300 years old?" Peter opened his mouth in surprise and asked Thor: "How old are you?"
"Me? Well, I'm not old either, less than 1,600 years old."
Peter swallowed and said: "Well, you are indeed the winner in this regard. I'm only 16 years old this year."
"I know you can't compare the lifespan of people from Asgard with that of people on Earth, but if you convert it proportionally, you're still a child."
"But compared to me, you're more childish." Peter explained to Thor: "I know that those little hooligans are annoying, and they deserve to be beaten. If it were in the past, I would definitely beat them up indiscriminately to vent my anger."
"But during this period, I thought a lot." Peter sighed and said: "This idea is actually a bit irresponsible. Although I feel good to beat them up, the owner of the arcade is innocent, He broke several machines. Even if I paid him, he would have to spend time and energy to replace the machines and put them back. He might even have to close the shop for a day to clean up the mess. "
"Not to mention the child who was affected. His right hand was broken. His parents had to stay at home to take care of him and couldn't go to work. They might even be scolded by their boss for this."
"If I were replaced by that child, my uncle would be very angry and my aunt would cry out of pain."
"And the fracture is really painful. If I was affected for no reason, I would definitely feel wronged and angry..."
"You think too much." Thor said directly: "As long as I do the right thing, the father of the gods will definitely support me, but I..."
At this point, Thor stopped himself, sighed, and then said in an angry tone: "I did the right thing, why doesn't my father understand me? He also made me..."
"I can see that you are actually a very righteous person. I think we are very similar. We both want to do good things with passion, so I can understand your current thoughts very well, because I used to think so too."
"What do you think now?" Thor looked at Peter.
Talking to Peter, who is younger than him and looks very thin, makes Thor less stressed and allows him to temporarily break free from the rebellious mentality of arguing with his father.
The main reason why he can't communicate normally with the earthlings is that there is some language barrier, and the other is that he is very dissatisfied and aggrieved about his father's behavior of driving him out of the house. Even if he is an Asgardian, once he falls into extreme emotions, he can't listen to others.
But Peter has always had a positive and infectious sunny temperament. This temperament makes people feel that there is no difficulty in the world that cannot be overcome, and it is easier for people to get rid of some negative emotions.
"I find it a bit difficult to talk to you. Ah, of course, I am not making fun of your accent, I am just stating a fact."
"And I don't think I used to be able to listen to long speeches. Let me take you to a friend of mine, Matt. It is his behavior that inspired me, and I think it will definitely help you."
As he said this, Peter was about to pull Thor forward. Thor walked and shouted: "I am the prince of Asgard. There is nothing that must be solved by humans. I can solve it myself..."
"Okay, okay, but we just solved a problem together, so we should be considered friends, right? Do you want to reject a friend's invitation?"
Peter said as he let Pikachu out of his schoolbag. Pikachu also watched the whole process. He said to Thor: "Big guy, I have to say that you beat up those bad guys just now, especially the punch you gave the brown-haired guy..."
Pikachu waved his short arms, imitating the way humans box. He said: "It can be seen that you have practiced. The gangster flew out directly. He will definitely not dare to come to this arcade next time!"
This is exactly Thor was so tickled that he said, "People think I'm best at using hammers and spears, but I'm actually very good at boxing. I just don't have many opportunities to show it."
"If you ask me, I'm the best boxer in Asgard, except for my father!"
Peter also became interested. He said to Thor, "Your moves are really cool. They are different from human boxing. They are more like the moves I saw in the movies. Can you teach me? I also want to look cool when I fight!"
"This is easy. I'll teach you two moves later. I guarantee that when you face those weaklings, you can beat them to a pulp!"
