Marvel's Deadly Guardian

Chapter 72 Negotiation Expert

In the studio of J3 Media, everyone looked at the phone on the table very quietly, waiting for Dr. Otto to call and communicate with them.

Peter is here too, because he just received a call from his boss. He wanted to tell Venom about the progress of this matter, but he didn't have the phone number or contact information of the other party.

Not far from the table in the studio, Anastasha was sitting there. She was no longer the image of a capable strong woman. Although her expression was still serious and she tried to calm herself down, anxiety and worry could still be seen in her eyes.

"Don't worry too much, Anastasia. Otto's main intention should be money. He will definitely not hurt Felicia now, which is not good for both parties." James sat on a chair in the studio and looked at Anastasia who was sitting not far away.

He and Anastasia are friends and partners, and today's news is also entrusted by the other party. After all, everyone knows the efficiency of the police.

For Anastasha, the most important thing is Felicia's safety, and the amount of ransom paid is not an important thing.

Just like the advertisement just now, all the billboards in New York are covered. This is not only a matter of money, but also needs to have suitable contacts. This is why Anastasha came to James for help.

Anastasha was about to respond after hearing what James said, but at this moment the phone on the table rang suddenly.

Seeing the phone ringing, everyone's eyes were also focused there, Anastasha also clasped her hands, praying secretly in her heart.

After the phone rang, James was about to pick up the phone and start negotiating. Robbie, who was standing next to him, pressed his shoulders and told him, "Jonah, if it's really him calling, please calm down no matter what."

"Of course, I have always been calm and composed." James said confidently.

Officer Ford next to him also walked over quickly at this time and said: "Remember, we must drag him and chat for as long as possible, so that we can have time to find his location."

Although Anastasha used her personal relationship to ask James for help, Ford did not stop the investigation. Instead, she cooperated with them and prepared to use the police station's positioning device to find Dr. Otto.

Hearing Officer Ford's explanation to him, James also raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't be so nervous, I watch more detective movies than you."

Officer Ford wanted to say something after hearing the words, but James had already picked up the phone, and he said in a serious and calm tone, "Hello, I'm J. Jonah James."

At this moment, a middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hi, I'm Dr. Otto. Of course, you can also call me by my current name, Dr. Octopus."

"I want you to prepare 500 million US dollars in cash to complete the transaction between us. In addition, I want you to report about me on the news."

"I want everyone to know what they did to me!" Dr. Otto's tone became more and more intense, as if his bad memories were brought back.

James also paused when he heard the words, and then continued to say in a deep voice: "We agree to your conditions. Similarly, you have to ensure Miss Hardy's safety to us. I need to talk to Miss Hardy on the phone."

Dr. Otto also sneered and said, "You are not qualified to negotiate terms with the great Doctor Octopus."

James was a little angry when he heard Dr. Otto's words. He raised his voice and shouted into the phone: "If anything happens to Miss Hardy, I will definitely not let you go!"

"What would you do? You are not qualified to do anything?!" Dr. Otto mocked James' words.

James stood up from the stool when he heard the words, and then shouted loudly: "You better not think so! You stupid octopus!"

Hearing what James said, Robbie also anxiously reminded him: "Jonah! You have to calm down!"

Although Officer Ford didn't speak, his face had already collapsed.

Anastasia's heart was getting colder and colder, and she felt a little out of breath.

"You monster! Short-lived blackmailer! You will definitely be imprisoned in a prison that will never see the light of day for the rest of your life to repent!" James was not aware of his problem, and he was still madly outputting to Dr. Otto on the opposite side of the microphone, venting his anger.

Doctor Octopus on the other side of the phone also turned pale. He gritted his teeth and said in a cold tone: "Very good! How dare you talk to a great scientist in such a tone!"

"Scientist? What kind of scientist are you! You coward who only knows how to kidnap and blackmail!" Before Dr. Otto could finish speaking, James began to mock again.

Peter's eyes widened in shock at James' bold statement. He had never seen a negotiation like James's.

Anastasia covered her mouth with trembling hands. She was full of regrets in her heart now. If she had known what James was like, she would have insisted on waiting no matter how slow the police were.

"Coward! How dare you call me a coward!" The angry Dr. Otto directly smashed the computer in front of him, then grabbed the phone in his hand and said viciously: "I want you to hand over the ransom to me alone! I hope you don't dare to come!"

"What?!" James, who was outputting crazily, was a little dumbfounded when he heard this.

"That's right! It's you alone!" Dr. Otto continued: "I will fax the steps, I hope you don't dare to come! Otherwise, I can't guarantee the consequences!"

After Dr. Otto finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly, leaving James in the studio holding the phone and saying a little at a loss: "He asked me to pay the ransom alone."

Just when Anastasha was about to say something, a figure suddenly jumped out from behind Peter, and then directly choked James and hit the wall behind the studio.

"What did you do?! You damn old guy!" Chen Li said, his eyes were red and he pinched James' neck and gritted his teeth.

He didn't expect James' so-called negotiation and communication to be like this. Because of his extraordinary hearing, he had already heard the call between James and Dr. Otto when he first arrived at the studio floor.

After realizing that this person was unreliable, Chen Liao immediately rushed towards the studio, trying to stop James from speaking out.

But helplessly, James' output was faster, and Dr. Otto had hung up the phone just as he arrived at the studio.

Chen Liao was so angry that he couldn't suppress his inner irritability at all, he wished he could beat up this damn old guy right now.

"Don't be like this! Don't be like this! Your eyes are red! Calm down!" Venom hurriedly said to soothe Chen's emotions, fearing that he would be mentally unstable: "You can still pay the ransom! We just follow up when the ransom is paid!"

After all, there are still so many people now, and that idiot Peter is here. If there is a riot, it will be troublesome. Thinking of this, Venom can't help sighing, he feels that his life is getting more and more difficult.
