Chapter 2: Lies and Funerals
"I'm sorry, Harry, we didn't have the ability to save your father. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Jie spoke first to Harry's puzzled gaze.
Harry was so emotional that he grabbed Li Jie by the collar and yelled. "Tell me, what the hell is going on. What the hell is going on with you. ”
"Don't excite Harry. Take it easy. Li Jie patted Harry's hand and signaled him not to get too excited.
"I'm sure you've seen the news these days, about Hell's Kitchen. ”
"Yes, I did. You go and show your might, and fight and kill a bunch of ninjas. Ha~ But what does this have to do with my father!" Harry's tone was still not very calm.
"For the Peace of Hands is planning to resurrect an evil god named the Beast. Li Jie continued.
And the beast was possessed of Peter. ”
"Uncle Norman, your life is coming to an end because of your family's genetic disease. But he can't reassure you, so you make a pact with a demon to prolong his life. ”
"It can't be. Harry shook his head, he couldn't believe that there were demons in this world, and he didn't believe that his father would make a pact with them.
"Listen to me. Li Jie motioned for Harry to continue listening to him. "Everything he does is to be able to work out an antidote to the virus in your body. ”
"The demon forced Uncle Norman to do things he didn't want to do, like kill Peter. "What Li Jie is saying now already has an element of lies.
The hardest thing to debunk is that half-truths and half-truths are lies.
"For the devil thirsts for the power of the beast. This is Li Jie's own inference, but it is indeed true that he stumbled by mistake. "Driven by the devil, Uncle Norman was forced to become a demon minion. ”
Harry looked at Norman's corpse on the ground and couldn't help but kneel beside him and weep.
But he was not willing to become a demon minion, and he rebelled against the demon's control. He tried to break free from the demon's bondage and helped us kill the beast. At this, Peter couldn't help but turn his back.
Lying is not what he's good at at all, and he's afraid of revealing flaws.
Although when Li Jie first discussed this statement with him, he did not particularly agree. But Peter didn't have a better idea.
And since Norman is dead, there are many things that don't need to be investigated, otherwise how will he face Harry in the future?
Li Jie didn't care about Peter's movements, and continued to talk to himself. Then the demon found out, and the demon descended on the earth. ”
"So you want to tell me that my father was killed by a demon?" Harry's tone was still unbelieving, but not as resistant as he had been.
"Yes, Uncle Norman rebelled against that demon. He didn't want to be that demon's puppet. Li Jie tried to keep his face expressionless as much as possible, so as to increase his credibility.
"In the end he was killed by that demon, and we are no match for the demon, so we can only watch him leave the earth. "Among those present at the time, the Green Goblin knew that it was Norman Osborne. I'm afraid there is only one Li Jie, so this lie is not so easy to debunk.
Harry was afraid that he would not be able to find the people of the Supreme Mage to verify what had happened, and they were nowhere to be found.
At that time, the only person who witnessed the battle was Iron Man Tony Stark. The Osborne Group and Stark Industries are inherently competitive.
And at that time, Iron Man didn't know that the Green Goblin was Norman Osborne, and Harry probably wouldn't ask him.
As long as these two groups of people don't speak out, then only Peter and Li Jie know the truth on the spot. Now that Peter doesn't speak, then Li Jie will say what is what.
Li Jie didn't know if it was right or wrong, he didn't expect Harry to be burdened with his father as a demon, and he and Peter were afraid that the truth would break Harry.
They chose to cover up the truth with lies, and maybe they would tell Harry the truth slowly, but not now.
Seeing that Harry was now holding Norman's corpse and crying loudly, neither of them dared to say anything.
"If what you say is true, then I will stand up to all the demons!" Harry's words gritted his teeth, anger and deep sadness.
The weather was not very good on the day of Norman Osborne's burial, and the first snow fell in New York in November, and small snowflakes fell from the sky on the day of the funeral.
Peter, Harry, and Li Jie were all coffin bearers. There is also a distant relative of the Osborne family, a middle-aged man who has a good relationship with Norman.
Peter and Lee Jay became coffin-bearers at Harry's request, and they couldn't refuse the request. Especially at a time when Harry was so vulnerable.
When the last white rose was thrown into the tomb, Harry began to shovel the first shovel to cover the earth. The brown earth slowly covered the black coffin.
This is the private cemetery of the Osborne family. Harry went from the first spade to the last, and he didn't stop in between.
Now that New York has officially entered winter, he is tired and sweating profusely outside in the cold.
He was about to be the send-off for Norman Osborne's final journey, and he didn't care how hard it was.
"Harry, take a break. When Harry covered the final covering, only Major and Peter were left waiting for him in the biting cold wind.
The rest of the workers began to do the final work, and Harry couldn't get his hands on it, and Li Kit forcibly dragged him away.
"Thank you, thank you for being by my side. The corners of Harry's eyes were a little red, I don't know if it was because of the relationship that had been blown by the cold wind for a long time, or if there was something else.
"Don't be stupid, we're good brothers. Peter gave Harry a hug as he spoke, and then Li Jay hugged Harry and patted him on the back.
"Cheer up Harry, you still have a huge business empire to take care of. Don't let your father's hard work go to waste. Li Jie motioned for Harry to cheer up.
Norman may have prepared a way out, and Jenkailine's experiments in the Osborne Group did not escape Norman's surveillance.
But Norman resigned himself to it, because this set of genetic sequences was the antidote he had always dreamed of. He knew that unless he did it in a special way, he would not be able to break free from Stannis's grip on him.
So the way had been paved for Harry, and all the previous secret experiments had been destroyed by him. All data is deleted.
He removed any stain that might damage the Osborne group, because he knew that Harry wasn't him, and Harry couldn't play with that many ghosts, at least not now.
He was too young and needed more experience.
Norman left only the genetic sequence of the successful part, and in the letter he indicated that he needed the help of two friends.
Because he knew that neither Li Jie nor Peter would refuse Harry's request at this time, and they would definitely help Harry.
"Don't blame me for repeating the same old tune, Jason. I need your help and I would like to hire you as my special advisor. I can't handle those board guys on my own. Harry perked up and brought up the invitation once more.
Li Jie struggled a little inwardly. "Well, I promised your father that I would help you. But I don't want to be full-time, you know. It's okay to do counseling once in a while. ”
"Thanks, man. Harry slammed a punch into Jack's shoulder as a way to thank him for his support.
"And your brother, thank you. Harry smacked Peter on the shoulder.
"Oh, don't be too intimate. I still have Gwen, don't you want to go see Mary Jane? She was crying outside just now, or did I persuade her to go back first? Peter said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
