Chapter 141 The Price of Recklessness

Lille was a little melancholy--

After just two activities like this, the medicine in the accessory heart was almost used up, and it turned out that there were some small problems with his first version of the ratio.

But luckily it's not a big problem.

Even the way George looked at him was wrong - if I remember correctly, isn't your kid about to die? !

Can a person who is about to die be able to run 100 meters in nine seconds?

Gwen's eyes are also weird, but the girl is still wearing a mask.

Fortunately, there were no deaths in this riot, but some people were injured, quite a few - for example, Peter's classmate, Flesh, sprained his ankle while running.

Not to mention the economic losses, the main building of Zhongcheng High School will be completely unusable before the overhaul is completed.

In the darkness, people only saw that more than half of the building collapsed. Along the way, all the sewer pipes burst, and large areas of the road cracked and sank.

But again, luckily no one died.

It seemed that Peter had some sense before he was beaten and controlled his desire to eat.

The NYPD quickly took control of the scene and kept the media out.

Outside the main building of Midtown High School, Lil and Gwen were sitting on student chairs, Peter was lying on a stretcher, and George was sitting on the teacher's chair.

George held a small notebook with a strange expression on his face: "So... we're just going to take notes here?"

In fact, it mainly depends on what Gwen means - the latter nodded.

She was going to rush home soon. She couldn't leave a phone number for George to call her back, and then she could go to the police station to record it, right?

As for George, although he was dissatisfied with Spider-Woman before, this time he is fighting side by side, so naturally he is not so strict.

Finally, Peter Parker was still in a state of confusion. He had glucose hanging in his hand. Apart from his brain being a little confused and the micro-wounds left after the detection equipment was removed, he basically had no injuries.

Even if there is something wrong with him now, it has to be solved in the laboratory, so there is no rush to send him to the hospital - this is Lille's judgment.

Lille thought for a while and took out a mobile phone from his pocket: "Use this. It has a voice input function, so you don't have to write."

".self-made?"

"self-made."

"Nice stuff, cough, let's get started."

George became serious: "First of all, you, Peter Parker, do you know what you have done?"

"I" Peter was extremely disappointed.

This was nothing like what he thought.

In this "great self-sacrifice", he crossed almost every threshold, and after crossing the threshold, almost every situation was beyond his expectation.

He smashed the high-strength glass in his lab, dug through the sewer system, and even tore down his high school --

If someone dies, it will be a lifetime of pain.

After holding it in for a long time, his head felt dizzy, Peter expressed his inner thoughts: "I just want to help, and I want to be special. Just like you guys."

Typical adolescent problems.

Severe adolescent problems will only turn most ordinary people into problem youth, but a capable problem youth has the ability to bring huge problems to society.

The remaining three people could only sigh -

What else can be done?

George began to ask Gwen: "So this... anonymous concerned citizen, I need to know what Peter Parker did when he turned into a lizard."

Gwen didn't know what she was thinking and was startled. She said hurriedly: "I never... I mean, I believe Peter Parker was unconscious at the time!"

The voice he spoke was still a little low - it was obviously pinched.

"You mean, he's in something like a state of insanity?"

"That's right - I think so!"

"Okay. So did he actively attack anyone along the way?"

"No--except me."

"Well, you think he subjectively had no intention of hurting anyone, but it's obvious that he caused great damage. Can you give his route of action?"

"I started seeing him on High School Second Street outside of Midtown High School, and he probably came from the sewer lines."

"OK."

George checked that the voice input was correct, and then continued: "Peter Parker, do you have anything to add? Is what this enthusiastic citizen said true?"

Peter lowered his head: "My memory is not very clear. I only remember that I was at Imperial University and injected the medicine in the laboratory.

I got to the lab very late, and there were people working overtime in the building next door, and then I walked into the lab and Mr. Leal turned off the equipment remotely.

I don't know where I got the courage, and then I readjusted the laboratory wiring and gave the equipment functions - I knew Mr. Lear would definitely not agree to this experiment.

Then I equipped myself with all the monitoring equipment and fixed myself on the observation platform. I didn't expect it to be like this."

Peter didn't dare to look at Gwen. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Lear: "Sir, I."

Lear shook his head and waved his hands: "You did something wrong, there is no doubt about it, and then you have to bear the price - remember what I told you? This is why I will not choose to conduct human experiments rashly.

Why did you do this suddenly? What aroused you? "

Peter looked at Gwen bitterly - he felt that this girl was someone he knew, but he had no proof.

"How is Harry?"

Gwen was stunned for a moment: "I don't know about him. The Osborne Group sent him to a special ward. He said it might be because he didn't take medicine when he went out."

"He knows his problem?"

"What's wrong with him?" Gwen asked, then realized that it didn't feel right to care so much. "Well, I mean, how would I know?"

Peter lowered his head and explained his motivation: "I want to complete the research on the lizard serum as soon as possible, because it may be useful in treating Harry's disease.

He may have a rare genetic disease. "

Lear raised his eyebrows slightly.

Where did you know that? Considering the context, I can only hear it from Norman.

What's interesting is that Harry seems to have been taking medicine. It's hard to say whether he knows what's wrong with him.

As for the conspiracy theory - he just forgot to take his medicine today and then got sick?

What on earth did Norman tell Peter? What was he really thinking?

George was not affected and transferred the inquiry to Lear: "So, Mr. Li, do you think Peter Parker is subjectively malicious? How was his performance in the laboratory?"

"Obviously he did not abide by the laboratory management regulations and conducted experiments in violation of regulations, at least - in violation of the Human Body Protection Act.

But considering that he was conducting experiments on himself, I don’t think he had any subjective malice – of course, I’m not excusing the objective reality that he broke the law.

He must take responsibility for the damage caused. "

Lear's answer was quite strong, making both George and Gwen a little silent——

For this kind of thing, Lille could actually do some other dictation, such as something that went wrong in the experiment.

In this way, the motive - which was good, objective - there were no casualties, and Peter was still a minor - a month shy of adulthood, and financially dependent on his guardian.

Coupled with the understanding and responsibility of the laboratory

But Lille did not want to cooperate with what idea was good, but just executed this defense badly.

Punish whatever you want.

Peter's head dropped lower.

Leal continued: "I think it's important to put the full truth of what happened, both in terms of what he could call 'well-intentioned' motives and the actual damage that he caused.

Peter - You may think I am unkind, but think about it, if the truth about this incident is incomplete, how much impact will it have on experimental ethics?

You think this is a very important experiment - yes, it is very important, so we can't mess with ethics and morals casually. "

No punishment or light punishment means that everyone can do it in the future, and any crime or damage can be said to be an accident.

But as for punishment, everyone needs to know what kind of status quo this level of punishment is based on. The clearer the better.

Peter won't get a harsh sentence, that's for sure - based on his motives, the damage done and eyewitness accounts, and George's help.

Imprisonment for about a year is inevitable, which is not long.

But compensation for economic losses must be sky-high, and it must be a debt that is difficult for ordinary people to pay off.

People must understand the basis of this judgment, otherwise the impact will be very bad in all aspects.

Of course, even if the ins and outs of this incident are clearly restored, the consequences have already been sown -

Evildoers can completely rely on this verdict and fabricate the chain of evidence into a similar situation.

George also quickly understood what Leal meant.

"Yes, this incident is rare and will serve as a typical case. It must be detailed."

Just when George was about to finish, Lear added: "There is another important detail, Sheriff, a genetically modified lizard was lost in the laboratory."

"Are there any consequences to this?"

Lear nodded: "The lizard potion was synthesized by us in the laboratory. Someone may reversely deduce the design route of the potion from the lizard potion."

George had a headache - that is to say, someone might get a second lizard?

"Oh, I understand your point of view more and more. I will tell the truth to New York."

The motivation and the course of events have all been roughly recorded.

Gwen looked at the confused Peter and felt heartbroken, but she could not comfort him at this time.

She suddenly stood up: "Officer, and Mr. Li. I'll leave first."

George looked at the heroine and said: "Okay, thank you for your cooperation, and - I wrongly blamed you before. I always thought you were a freak who just wanted to attract attention. You can do anything but don't Do.

But today, you did New York City a big favor. "

This was Gwen's biggest takeaway from a terrible day.

She nodded, jumped high into the sky, and then disappeared among the tall buildings.

Lear looked at Peter, squatted down to be level with him, and said to him: "Peter, you must bear the consequences, whether it is jail time or compensation. I hope you understand what I mean."

"I know, sir, I'm just...in pain and regretful."

Only then did he remember what Lille said - he is still young, don't always focus on what he doesn't have yet.

By the time he began to realize how wonderful everything he had was, it was too late.

He was originally the most outstanding talent in science and engineering at Midtown High School. He participated in Professor Connors' experiment at a young age, and was very likely to participate in a world-shaking research as an intern assistant researcher.

He is about to enter college, enjoy four wonderful years of campus life, and may even become a slightly famous scientist.

But now, it is impossible for the school to want him. Campus life has turned into prison life, and possible achievements have been ruined.

This is the mistake young people often make - recklessness, and its price.

Looking at Peter who was shedding tears, Lear patted him on the shoulder: "But you can still look at what you still have. For example, you need to know that some major contributions to society may be used to reduce the sentence, and may also help you. Pay off debt.

And then...it might also cure your good brother Harry. "

Peter raised his head suddenly when he heard this——

Lear smiled: "You must be punished, but I didn't say we were going to expel you. Look at it a little bit - it's nothing more than student loans turning into compensation debts, and the place of study turning into a prison.

But you still have a smart head, but don’t be discouraged in prison. Don’t keep your head down and feel like you are nothing. You have to be tougher, do you understand?

And say sorry to your aunt and uncle. "

After finishing speaking, Leer stood up and moved out of the way.

A grey-haired couple stood not far away, looking at Peter sadly.

He thought that Uncle Ben, who was extremely demanding, would look disappointed at him, and that Aunt Mei would be dissatisfied, but the actual situation was

They just felt sad and heartbroken, not for themselves, but for him.

It was as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.

When Peter saw this scene, he burst into tears——

"I, I. I'm sorry, I really am."

Peter hid his face and burst into tears.

George on the side was filled with emotion as he watched this scene. Suddenly, a police officer hurried in, handed him a bag of documents, and whispered something to him.

His expression suddenly changed, he patted Lear on the shoulder and motioned for him to step aside.

Lear stood up and walked side by side with George.

George said solemnly: "Someone died, New York University, Biological Laboratory No. 2, four corpses, scales appeared on the dead, and you can see for yourself."
