Chapter 1546: The Man Who Chases the Sun (7)
In the Hollywood area of Los Angeles, Peter, who was preparing to go to Mary Jane's crew with two other people, was now faced with a very awkward problem - if according to the original plan, one person would go to lure Mary Jane away, and the other two would go to the crew to investigate, then who would act alone?
According to common sense, of course, it was Mary Jane's boyfriend Harry who went to lure her away, and of course the excuses were easy to find, such as seeing her work hard, coming over to surprise her, etc., it was easy to lure Mary Jane somewhere else, and then let the two Spider-Men enter the crew to investigate the suspicious characters.
But the problem is that if Harry leaves, and middle-aged Peter stays with Peter, then middle-aged Peter will definitely ask Peter what the purpose of this plan is.
How will Peter explain to him that this plan is actually to help the little green goblin recover the person who is your wife in another universe?
Then if Peter and Harry stayed, he would have faced the same problem, and Harry would have asked him what was going on with this Peter of another universe who suddenly appeared, and it would inevitably talk about the life experience of middle-aged Peter Parker - he and Mary Jane were married, divorced and married, and had a lovely little daughter.
And if Peter left on his own, leaving Harry with middle-aged Peter, then Peter couldn't imagine what would happen next.
Peter knew very well that Harry's feelings for Mary Jane were different from his feelings for Gwen, and Peter hoped that Gwen would be fine with him whether he existed or not, and Gwen thought so.
But Harry has a strong possessive desire for Mary Jane, which may be the emotional style inherited by the Osborne family, but Mary Jane is a very independent person, and feels that feelings should not encroach on personal space, and the two of them quarrel about this matter.
So Peter wasn't sure how Harry would react when he learned about the story that took place in another universe, and he decided to try not to let Harry know about it, and not to face such an embarrassing problem.
Soon, they arrived at a live-action building set up in Hollywood for the filming of the movie, this time Mary Jane starred in an urban romantic comedy, most of the scenes were filmed in this building, and when the three of them arrived, the crew had already started working, and there were field attendants and assistants everywhere, and there seemed to be no suspicious characters from the outside.
Outside the crew, the three began to discuss the division of labor, and Harry took the lead and said: "I can use the visit as an excuse to lure Mary away......"
"Nope." Peter interrupted him directly and said, "I know Mary, she is very disgusted that someone disturbs her at work, and it is very likely that what you give her is not a surprise, but a fright. ”
"So what do you say?" Harry asked, spreading his hands.
"We don't really need to lure Mary away, the three of us can sneak in separately and search for suspicious people in the area, as long as we avoid where Mary is, which is more efficient."
After discussing for a long time, the other two couldn't resist Peter, so they planned to sneak in separately, Harry and the middle-aged Peter were in charge of the left and right sides of the theater perimeter, and Peter was in charge of the center.
Because it was a sneak mission, in order not to be too conspicuous, several people did not wear uniforms, Peter quickly got the armband of the field staff from the box held by the assistant who passed by, and smoothly blended into the crew and walked towards the designated position.
But just then, the phone in Peter's pocket rang, and he picked it up and said, "Hello? Oh, Shadow Spider-Man, what's the matter? ”
"Jonah James, are you talking about the boss of that Clarion Daily? No, I don't know him well, and I haven't worked there...... In that universe of yours, you used to work with him? What happened to him? ”
"Nick asked you on a mission, what? You're going to kill Jameson, no, no, no, but don't! …… Ah, yes, he did publish some reports about Spider-Man, but that's not a smear, I did do some stupid things when I first debuted......"
"You found out that he was in collusion with the organization that deliberately smeared me? I don't think it's possible, Shadow Spider-Man, I don't know what your cosmic James is like, but I remember that the Daily Bugle had previously published a clarification article about some of the reports that slandered Spider-Man, and although Jameson didn't like Spider-Man, he was a factual media person. ”
"Your universe too? That's great...... So you just want to make sure if James of my universe is a good person? I can answer you, of course yes, so you can't kill him. ”
Peter was about to hang up when he said as if he remembered something, "You mentioned that he may have colluded with those who have organized a slander against me...... I think there may be some misunderstanding in this, maybe someone is trying to frame him. ”
"Shadow Spider-Man, can you help me leave a note for Mr. James to leave New York recently? I'm worried about him getting into trouble, because he's one of the few editors-in-chief in New York who still has a conscience......"
Shadow Spider-Man said something on the other end of the phone, Peter lowered his head and sighed and said, "Actually, I know everything, but I don't think there's any need to worry about them, so be it, goodbye." ”
Soon Peter was at his target, standing on the roof of the building next to him and looking out of the window, just in time to see Mary Jane finishing a scene and taking her coat from her assistant and heading downstairs.
From Peter's point of view, he could see Mary Jane and her assistant enter the elevator and press the button on the ground floor, but when Peter looked to the ground floor, he found that the elevator that was supposed to open the door did not stay on the ground floor, and Mary Jane did not come out.
Silently estimating the time for the elevator to go up and down the stairs in his heart, Peter instinctively felt that something was wrong, Mary Jian obviously pressed the button on the ground floor, but according to the time when the elevator was running, she might have reached the third floor underground.
Unable to use spider silk, Peter had to run down the building like a normal person, but he knew it would be too late, so he took out his phone and called Harry as he ran, and said, "Hurry up and go to the parking lot on the third basement floor, someone has tampered with the elevator line and brought Mary there, it is very likely that someone sent by your father did it!" ”
Harry gritted his teeth and hung up the phone, and ran quickly towards the entrance of the underground parking lot, he should have thought that Osborne, who has always been strong-armed, would not use such gentle means for a helpless female star, let alone sit down and talk to her, most of it was intimidation and threats.
When Harry rushed into the underground parking lot, he found that it was not actually a real parking lot, it was also part of the studio, and there was only lighting when there was a crew, and now it was pitch black, and there were no emergency lights.
He could only run forward in a panic in the dark, looking for possible traces with the faint light of his mobile phone's flashlight, and after a while, he heard a female voice roaring angrily.
"Are you trying to kidnap me?! I have the next scene in ten minutes, and if I don't show up, the crew will definitely call the police! Then you will be dead! ”
"Miss Watson, please calm down, we're ......"
"Mary! Mary! Harry immediately shouted loudly, and then sped in the direction from which the sound had come from.
Harry rushed to Mary Jane's side and said to the men across from him, "Get out of here and disappear from me!" ”
The others were surprised to see him here, but Mary Jane was even more surprised than they were, she turned her head and raised her eyebrows and glared at Harry and said, "Why are you here?" What the hell is going on?! ”
"Mary, calm down and listen to me......"
"This group of people broke the elevator and kidnapped me here, and I've now missed the time to make up, which may delay the next scene, and the whole crew will have to wait for me, I'm just a Hollywood newcomer, which could ruin my acting career!"
Mary Jane was a little devastated, she took out her phone with a somewhat trembling hand, looked at the people opposite and said, "No matter why you came here, I will make you pay, I will call the police now!" ”
"Wait a minute, Mary." Harry reached out and stopped her, saying, "They didn't want to hurt you, here's how it happened......"
"Didn't you want to hurt me?!" Mary screamed, she began to tremble, apparently irritated, she pointed to the elevator and shouted, "They hijacked the elevator and cut off the power to the lighting fixture, leaving me locked in the dark elevator for three full minutes, when I thought I was going to die here!" ”
Harry reached out to hug Mary Jane, but Mary Jane pushed him away, she looked at Harry coldly and said, "They know you, I can see - they don't dare to speak as soon as you appear!" ”
"Harry Osborne, what the hell are you going to do?!" Mary stared at Harry in disbelief and said, "You don't want me to come to Hollywood to film, you don't want me to show my face outside, so you use this despicable means to intimidate me!" Are you my boyfriend or a damn kidnapper?! ”
"No, Mary, it's my dad who is against the two of us, that's why he sent someone to ......"
"Your dad, your dad, your dad, little Osborne, when the hell are you going to wean?! Who the hell am I falling in love with?! ”
There are many people who show a tendency to anger and violence after being suddenly frightened, which is actually a human self-protection mechanism to avoid the powerlessness caused by the shock, so as to increase the chance of escape, and Mary is obviously one of them, she constantly vents her anger with words.
"I'm trying to stop them." Harry defended: "I'm here to protect you......"
"If you really wanted to protect me, you wouldn't let them be here at all!" Mary Jane pushed Harry away again, and said: "It's because you are not firm again and again that your father dares to take an inch, and now it has developed to kidnap me, just because you actually agree with the old Osborne's argument of a good wife and mother in your heart, you don't want me to come to Hollywood to work, and you don't want me to make money by filming." ”
"You Osborne are all all the way!" Mary sneered and looked at Harry and said, "It's just that your father wants you to find a ready-made good girl, and you want to turn me into a good girl." ”
"And I, I'll give you a middle finger and tell you, fuck the good girl!"
Mary picked up her handbag from the ground next to her, threw it on Harry's shoulder and knocked him back, stood in front of him, looked him in the eye and said, "Harry Osborne, we're finished!" ”
With that, Mary Jane walked away from Harry's side with her high heels, and behind the pillar of the parking lot she had walked on, another emaciated, unshaven figure looked at her departing back and sighed deeply.
Another small figure in his arms grabbed his arm and shook it, and said in a slurred tone, "Mom...... Mom......"
The figure let out a soft "shh
After a while, he heard Peter's guilt-filled voice coming from the door of the parking lot.
"It's all my fault, if we had sent someone to Mary as planned, maybe she wouldn't have been frightened in the elevator."
"So why the hell do you have to let the three of us go our separate ways, Peter, it's not like your usual planning style." Harry's tone was full of doubt.
And at this time, another voice sounded behind them.
"I think it's because, in another universe, Mary Jane is Mayade's mother, my wife."
