Chapter 180 Threat

"Huh?"

Peter, who had just come out of the toilet after changing his clothes, looked around the empty teaching building with some confusion.

Today is the day for the senior students of Zhongcheng Middle School to prepare for graduation defense, and Peter's defense time is scheduled in the afternoon.

Logically, the students who are defending should all sit in the surrounding classrooms and share their defense experiences.

And at the beginning of the morning, Peter did so.

Sit quietly on the seat in the classroom, watching the happy or sad faces of the students who went on stage to defend.

But just after listening to the defense of two classmates, Peter left the classroom because of a serious traffic accident outside Zhongcheng Middle School.

Transformed into Spider-Man to help evacuate traffic.

After evacuating the traffic, Peter solved several robberies and kidnappings along the way.

After finishing the daily tasks of the superhero, Peter suddenly remembered that his defense time was coming.

So after Peter helped an elderly lady get her handbag back and tied a young man who was racing to a street lamp, Peter finally appeared in the school of Midtown Middle School.

But what puzzled him was that the teaching building was silent at this time.

If Peter remembered correctly, there should be more than 20 people waiting behind him for graduation defense.

No matter what, the teaching building could not be as quiet as it is now.

Just when Peter was puzzled, several figures carefully walked down the stairs holding the experimental equipment of the chemical laboratory.

"Classmate." Peter waved to these students quickly.

The students who were still cautious looked at Peter's waist, their eyes full of astonishment.

"You are not..."

At this time, Peter also saw these students clearly, and around their waists, there were circles of rubber-like existence.

"What is this?" Peter's expression also looked a little stunned.

"Go!" Feeling the tightness around their waists, the students whispered to Peter.

Peter was stunned, looking at the anxiety in the students' eyes, and rolled over to hide in the classroom next to him.

"Who were you talking to just now?"

As Peter hid in the classroom, a voice that sounded familiar to Peter suddenly came from the corridor.

"No, no." The leading student swallowed his saliva and looked at Reed's head that suddenly extended from the air with some fear.

"Oh?" Reed glanced at the students, his neck began to extend continuously, and he looked around carefully.

This scene looked like experiencing an immersive horror movie.

The students holding the experimental equipment held their breath and watched Reed's head stretch into the classroom that Peter had entered before.

But soon, Reed's head shrank back from the classroom.

"Go back to the playground as soon as possible." Reed looked at the students with a normal expression.

"I still have a lot of use for these experimental equipment in your hands."

"Okay, okay, sir." The leading student licked his dry lips, and under Reed's gaze, he nervously led the other students to continue walking downstairs.

"." Reed looked at the frightened looks of the students before, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

If possible, he didn't want to hurt these students.

Now he just hoped that the plan could continue to be implemented as he expected.

Kidnap the students of Zhongcheng Middle School, get the ransom, and finally disappear in front of everyone.

And, prove that he has become a criminal.

Reed's expression seemed a little lost, and it was only in this situation where no one was around that he dared to show this expression now.

Now, at least in the hearts of these students, he has become an out-and-out criminal.

But as long as Susan can be saved, no matter how much he pays, Reed feels that it is worth it.

Thinking of this, Reed retracted his lost expression and became more determined.

As Reed's head disappeared into the teaching building, Peter, who was hiding on the ceiling of the classroom, dared to carefully stick his head out of the window to see if anyone noticed him.

"That person just now" Peter jumped down from the ceiling, his expression on his face looked a little puzzled.

"If I remember correctly, it should be Mr. Reed, right?"

"Why is he here?" Peter muttered to himself.

"Why are those classmates so afraid of him?"

What happened?

Although Peter also knew about Reed's public opinion a few days ago, he once told Peter that Reed should not be the kind of person introduced in the report.

But the scene he saw just now made Peter begin to doubt.

Is it really his feeling that is wrong?

Thinking of this, Peter slowly took out the black spider mask from his pocket.

"Thank you for your hard work." Reed nodded to the students who moved the experimental equipment back to him.

"Then you can go back first." Reed pointed to the crowd in the playground.

He looked at the timid looks of these students and said quietly, "Don't worry, as long as the police and the school are willing to pay the ransom, you will be fine."

After Reed comforted the students casually, he let them return to the playground.

His sight was towards the experimental equipment brought by the students.

Various test tubes and some bottles and jars with danger signs made Reed pinch his hands.

"It's been a long time since I made these gadgets by myself."

Then, the students and teachers trapped on the playground saw Reed on the stands waving his hands and starting to mix some reagents.

At this time, outside of Central City Middle School, dozens of police cars had rushed over following the alarm calls from the students and teachers of Central City Middle School.

Sheriff Stacy opened the door of the police car with a normal expression and nodded slightly to his colleagues around him.

"George." A familiar sheriff raised his chin to Sheriff Stacy.

"I heard that your daughter also attends this school?"

"Yeah." Sheriff Stacy looked at the meaning in the sheriff's eyes, and he shook his head slowly: "Don't worry, she shouldn't be in school today."

Sheriff Stacy looked at the dessert shop not far away casually.

The closed door of the dessert shop and the big lock at the door of the dessert shop made Stacy sigh slightly in her heart.

I hope that under Su Yan's leadership, Gwen will not get into trouble.

"Boss, this is the kidnapper's phone."

At this time, a police officer picked up the phone and shouted to Sheriff Stacy.

"Here, hold him steady!" Sheriff Stacy nodded and hurried to the direction of the police officer.

"Hello." Sheriff Stacy took the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Sheriff." Reed kept mixing the reagents with both hands, and greeted Sheriff Stacy with the phone between his shoulders and head.

"Believe me, Mr. Sheriff should have heard what the reporter said just now, right?"

"Yes." Sheriff Stacy responded, and said to Reed in a deep voice: "Mr. Reed, we have indeed received your request."

"The ransom is now on the way."

"But we have learned about your life."

"As a highly educated talent, your usual projects are tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars."

"But this morning you robbed tens of millions of dollars from the Manhattan Bank headquarters, plus the same amount you are asking for now, the two together are less than 100 million US dollars."

"According to your identity, you should not be short of 100 million US dollars."

"So, the reason you did this is because something happened?"

Sheriff Stacy asked Reed.

Speaking of which, letting a scientist be a robber and kidnapper just to get the amount of money that the scientist can get at hand.

This is really too insulting to the scientist.

So after Sheriff Stacy's analysis, maybe Mr. Reed Richards probably encountered something recently, so he acted so radically.

"Mr. Richards, maybe we can continue to talk." Sheriff Stacy continued to say to Reed.

"If you have any difficulties, maybe you can tell me. Although I am just a sheriff, I have known many elites in various industries in New York for so many years. Maybe I can help you?"

"." Reed on the other end of the phone fell silent.

". Sorry, Mr. Sheriff." After a long while, Reed said to Sheriff Stacy.

"You can't help me with this matter."

"Or, if you really want to help me, please prepare the ransom quickly."

Boom!

A deafening explosion sounded from a wall of Midtown Middle School.

Sheriff Stacy looked in the direction of the explosion and couldn't help but look tight.

"Sheriff Stacy." At this time, Reed's words continued to reach Sheriff Stacy's ears.

"I advise you not to think about those little tricks anymore."

"The explosion just now was just a warning. It shouldn't have hurt your police officers."

Reed on the stands looked at the amber test tube in his hand and continued to speak to Sheriff Stacy.

"If you play these little tricks again, don't blame me for throwing the source of the explosion directly into the playground."

"You know, Midtown Middle School is big enough. Even if you break through the fence outside the school, the playground is open enough to see your whereabouts clearly."

Bang--

A sniper bullet shot from a high-rise building in the distance and hit Reed's forehead, but it bounced back to the high-rise building after Reed's rubber-like ricochet.

"Wait!" Sheriff Stacy heard the gunshot and quickly said to Reed on the other end of the phone: "This is not my order!"

Sheriff Stacy's face was ferocious with anger, and she shouted loudly to the police officers and sheriffs behind her: "Who ordered the shooting?! Didn't you do a background check on the suspect before you came!?"

Sheriff Stacy couldn't believe that after being in the New York Police Department for so long, there are still police officers who don't know about Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards?

His rubber-like body is not afraid of physical blows. Even if he listens to his colleagues chatting recently, or occasionally pays attention to the news channel, this will be clear.

How can there be a New York police officer who is so stupid as to think that he can kill Reed with a sniper rifle!

"Okay." Reed nodded slightly listening to the roar coming from Sheriff Stacey on the other end of the phone.

"I will believe you again." Reed whispered to Sheriff Stacey: "Then I will reiterate again, my request is only money!"

"Mr. Sheriff, you'd better not play any more tricks on me, otherwise, be careful of a large number of people being blown up on the playground."

On the bell tower of Zhongcheng Middle School, Su Heng and Gwen looked at the scene in front of them and sighed in embarrassment.

"He is indeed a famous scientist." Gwen looked at the tube of amber reagent held in Reed's hand and scratched his head in embarrassment.

"If I read it correctly, it should be liquid high explosive."

"How did he make that kind of thing using the school's chemistry lab equipment?"

"I'm afraid only he knows this." Su Heng shrugged. Regarding the current situation, he gently looked at the big clock in front of him.

"Actually, Reed's words are easy to deal with." Su Heng shook his head: "But according to the information sent by SHIELD, even if Reed is caught, Reed's girlfriend Susan is still there. people’s hands.”

"Then what should we do now?" Gwen asked Su Heng: "Are we really going to just watch Mr. Reed take the money and hand it to the mysterious villain?"

"It would be great if we could find a way to lure that guy out." Although Su Heng guessed that the person who signed the name of Doctor Destruction was probably Doom.

But there was no evidence, and Su Heng didn't know where the guy hid Susan.

If I were to scare the snake, I'm afraid there would really be a big mess.

Just when Su Heng was hesitating whether to go directly to Doom Industry to catch Doom out, new changes had already taken place on the playground.

"Store manager, look!"

Following Gwen's slightly nervous voice, Su Heng looked away.

Peter was seen wearing a black spider suit, and he had arrived on the platform at some point. The high-explosive liquid bombs previously placed in Reed's hands and on the table were now in Peter's hands.

"Wow, sir." Peter looked at the liquid bomb in his hand in surprise.

"How did you create such a thing with the materials in the laboratory."

"Spider-Man" Reed looked at Peter with a gloomy expression.

"You should know, I know your true identity."

"." Peter, who was still shocked, froze in place when he heard Reed's words.

"I advise you to put down what you are holding." Reed said to Peter with a gloomy face.

"Otherwise, your true identity will be exposed in front of these students and teachers."

"You need to know." Reed clenched his fists and whispered to Peter.

"I don't want to hurt you!"

"So, give me the stuff."

Reed held out his hand to Peter.

Peter listened to Reed's threat and looked at the high-explosive liquid bomb in his hand without much hesitation.

"I'm sorry, sir." Peter placed the tube of reagent on a platform behind him and said to Reed with a stern expression.

"Even if you want to tell the teacher and classmates my identity, I have to stop you."

"After all, this is no joke."
