Chapter 596 Tomb Sweeping
May Parker, daughter of Peter Parker.Inheriting his father's spider gene, it can be said to be the second generation of Spider-Man.She showed her talent at an early age.

Peter Parker was both happy and worried about this.Happily, in this dangerous world, May Parker has an extra ability to protect herself.And the worry also comes from this. The stronger the ability Peter believes in, the stronger the responsibility.This is an act of responsibility, but he doesn't want to pass this responsibility on to his daughter, because he knows how painful it is.

Peter Parker of Earth-1915 was born in 30. That was the eve of World War I. The world was in chaos. He grew up in the [-]s and [-]s. When he was working as a young man, he happened to encounter the Great Depression in the United States.It is not uncommon for crimes to rise due to economic depression. Everyone is poor and has nothing to eat, so don't expect hungry people to keep their own lives.

Counting on the handouts from the free food points opened by the government, it is better to find a way by yourself.

The life of Peter Parker in this world has been difficult and poor for many years, he has encountered many setbacks in his life, and he has also experienced many partings in life and death.From the death of his uncle and aunt, and in the 30s he personally solved the big boss of the New York underground organization, Norman Osborn.And in the days that followed, the Osborne Group was completely disintegrated.

When the Second World War broke out in the late 30s, Peter Parker met Howard Stark, who worked for the military's underground front.

He was persuaded by Howard's lobbying, and finally joined the special front anonymously. The dark spider was active behind the enemy's front.From the fall of France to the Third Reich in Germany, he has his presence.

Blow up railways, burn warehouses, destroy arsenals, and rob bank vaults.There are also stealing information and assassinating high-ranking officials. Peter Parker, the dark spider, has done all these things. A single bomb placed on a railway bridge can kill all the Japanese soldiers on a train.

Peter Parker helped the course of the war, but also got blood on his hands.No one can stay out of this war, no one.

The Spider-Man in this world is not simply a nice guy. From his acting style, it can be seen that Peter Parker is more mature and stable, and his spider bites are full of poison.Most of the people who were targeted by Peter were going to die.

So he's the Dark Spider, not Spider-Man, and not many people have even heard his name.He works only in the dark, and as silently as a spider preying on insects.

But sometimes he still has weakness, for example, every December, on the eve of Christmas, he always has to do one thing: go to the cemetery to pay homage to his deceased relatives and friends.

This moment was his weakest moment, and under normal circumstances, Mary would accompany him, but this December was too cold, just the night before New York suddenly had a university, and the temperature dropped seven or eight times. Spend.Mary's health is not as good as Peter's. She will get sick if she goes to the cemetery in the suburbs for two or three hours in this weather.

So it was May who accompanied Peter, and Anthony was grounded by Peter.At present, they are not allowed to go anywhere except the company and home, because the mysterious person who suddenly appeared in New York has no idea where he came from. If he is really dealing with Anthony, it will be difficult for him to run away if he encounters him alone outside.

The car drove all the way into the cemetery in the suburbs, and Peter, who was driving the Cadillac, was speechless all the way, and Mei could see that her father was in a heavy heart, so she didn't know what to say.Peter is like this every year today.

There are cedars planted in the cemetery, which are evergreen all year round.The white snow falls on the green pine, and the white and green are interesting, but no one appreciates it here.

The creaking footsteps came from the snow on the road.

The first place Peter took May to was the graveyard of Uncle Ben and Aunt May.A bouquet of lilies is a memorial service for sweeping graves.

Peter stood in front of the tomb with a silent face, and the eyes of this 50-year-old man revealed a trace of memory.

"Uncle Ben and Aunt May are both good people. They were still willing to help others during the Great Depression. They advocated democratic life and political ideas, but they were not accepted by the mainstream at that time." Peter looked at the tombstones of his relatives and said to May. Said.

"Uncle Ben taught me to be strong, and Aunt Mei taught me what to be strong for."

Mei has never met her grandparents' relatives, but this does not prevent Peter and Mary from often mentioning these things to her. Mei said: "They are all good people. Without them, there would be no father."

Peter smiled, touched Mei's handsome face, and then walked to the next tombstone.The name on the tombstone is Harry Osborne, born 1915 and died 1937.

Peter offered a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums. May had never heard of the name on the tombstone, and she was a little curious.

As if sensing May's curiosity, Peter said: "Harry Osborn, my best friend. I don't think I will have such a good friend again in my life."

Mei looked at her father's sad eyes and asked, "Is it because of illness that you are so young?"

Peter shook his head: "No, the reason is very complicated. If it comes down to it, I killed him."

This answer exceeded Mei's expectations, she opened her mouth wide and did not speak.

Then there was the next tombstone, another name I hadn't heard of, Filiasi Hardy, which I heard was a lady.

Born in 1910 and died in 1940.

Peter presented a bouquet of red roses.

As if introducing all the friends he knew today, Peter said to his daughter again: "There is a beautiful lady buried here. For this lady, your mother has quarreled with me many times. rack."

A 50-year-old man smiled as he spoke, but May couldn't.

"She helped me a lot when I was young, but I didn't know how to cherish it at that time, and it was too late when I wanted to do something." Peter said with some embarrassment.

The next tombstone buried a family, what appeared to be a father-daughter relationship.

George Stancy, born 1895, died 1947.

Gwen Stancy, born 1915, died 1935.

Peter presented a bird of paradise and a white rose to them respectively.

"George Stancy, he was probably the bravest sheriff in the history of New York City. He dedicated his life to fighting crime, until a gunshot in the dark of night ended his life. He died not at all. Glorious, shot by a gangster trying to grab his briefcase. George has no money in his bag, in fact he is poor." Peter said in a low voice, and May could hear that even after so many years, her father was still angry .

May didn't want to ask what happened to the little gangster, and Peter didn't want to talk about what he did back then.

He calmed down and said to his daughter: "Gwen is my first love girlfriend, of course, that was before I met your mother. At that time we had happy things, and unpleasant things happened. Even if it happened So many things, but I never thought she would die so early. New York in the 30s was more chaotic than you can imagine."

Peter took a deep breath, and May saw a deep sense of powerlessness from him.This was something she had never seen before.

The last two tombstones are from Peter's two comrades-in-arms who participated in World War II.

Bucky Barnes, born 1920, died 1944.

Steve Rogers, born 1922, died 1944.

Peter offered cosmos to the two.

"Two brave soldiers." This is Peter's evaluation of the two: "But there was no time when the war was finally won. Especially Steve, when I was writing articles for the Bugle Daily as a reporter, Steve My husband is a cartoonist for the newspaper."

Peter was a little emotional: "Bucky is very strong, and Steve is very thin. Originally, Steve should not have joined the army, but he tried every means, and finally he was squeezed into the field reporter by using his experience in the Daily Bugle. ranks."

"He and I used to be colleagues. He was a talented young man. If he concentrates on painting, he may not be able to become a famous painter one day, instead of using a [cloth tearing machine] (MG-42 general-purpose machine gun) ) was broken into pieces, and in the end even the corpse could not be pieced together." Peter sighed after finishing speaking.

The Stark couple's mausoleum is not here, but in the estate in Los Angeles.Therefore, Peter and May cannot worship these two people here.

For Peter Parker, perhaps Howard was his only remaining friend, but he also passed away in 1955.The dark spider hides in the dark, not wanting to be discovered, and at the same time not wanting to be involved with other people.

To protect myself, but also to protect my family.If it weren't for Howard's accidental death, leaving his young son Anthony in need of care, maybe Peter would never have set foot in New York City.There are so many memories of him here, good and bad.

The Dark Spider is lonely, and perhaps forever will be.There are not many reasons for supporting Peter to live in this world, probably only his wife and daughter.

On the way back, the atmosphere was even more depressing, even more depressing than when going to the cemetery, and Mei could hardly breathe.She offered to walk with her father, and finally walked back to the company.It was only one street away from the Stark Group, and Peter did not refuse his daughter's request.

The two of them were walking on the streets of New York in winter. The temperature was a bit cold, but Mei felt a little better, at least much better than staying in a dull car.Although she was a little cold from the cold wind, and she still had goosebumps on her face.

"It would be nice to have a cup of hot drink." May thought, stomping her feet.

Now in this world, there are no chain beverage stores like Starbucks that provide coffee and hot chocolate. If you want to drink something hot, you must go to a coffee shop.

Now Mei had no choice but to walk in the direction of the Stark Group holding Peter's hand, but a steaming stall on the side of the road attracted her attention.

An ordinary trolley stall, but unlike ordinary trolleys, it sells fast food such as hot dogs.Instead, it says hot soup, hot drink, and Oden on its own signboard.

Mei knows about hot soup and hot drinks, but Oden?She has never heard of this name, but she doesn't care what Oden is. If the stall can provide a cup of hot coffee or hot milk, she doesn't mind buying two cups.

Peter could see that his daughter felt that the weather was a little cold, and the cold wind was blowing in the cemetery for two or three hours. At this time, both of them needed a cup of hot drink.

So Mei brought Peter to this strange little stall, but the stall owner didn't seem to notice their arrival. He was flipping through a pair of newspapers, ten or twenty newspapers, and a lot of magazines. Set aside in a mess.The more he looked at the stall owner's brows, the deeper he frowned, as if he had seen a lot of bad news.

For this, Mei had to pat the iron railing next to the dining car and made a little noise: "Is there any hot coffee here?"

Hearing the sound, the stall owner looked up and looked at May and Peter standing in front of the stall, his eyes suddenly widened.
