Darkness Rises

Chapter 157 Connors' Research Project
Island City Prison
Starting from Manhattan, after driving for more than an hour, I came to the beach. Looking through the car window, there is an island more than 2 kilometers away from the coast.

After checking the pass in front of the arched bridge, a convoy of black Cadillacs came to the gate of the prison.

This is Daocheng Prison, where more than 2000 criminal suspects awaiting formal trial are detained. At this time, a key suspect is being detained here.

In the detention room, which was only a few square meters in size, there was only one toilet, sink and one bed. In the monotonous environment, Dr. Conners was sitting on the bed in a daze, thinking about something.

He is now in jail, there is no doubt about it, who made him try to turn all the citizens of New York into lizards.

Such a serious crime, with immeasurable and dangerous consequences, I heard that the New York District Attorney did not want to make a deal with him, and wanted to directly sentence him to a sentence of hundreds of years.

This also means that his whole life is ruined. As a top human biologist, he no longer wants to continue to do experiments and realize his life value.

but……

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glanced at his right arm, which was no different from ordinary people, and he couldn't feel any abnormal strong right arm.

His pursuit of life for decades seems to have come true.

He no longer has to toss and turn every day, pondering whether the experimental data is right or wrong, he doesn't have to exhaust his brain, entangled in whether the application formula is right or wrong, and he doesn't have to worry all the time that the company will cut his experimental funding, or even cancel the experimental project directly. .

It can be said that the ideal of life that he has been striving for for decades has been realized. His right arm has recovered and he can look like a normal person, no, he is a normal person.

He no longer has to endure all kinds of inconveniences in his daily life, as well as the curious eyes of passers-by from the opposite side when he walks on the street from time to time, the unscrupulous loud inquiries from the brats, and what makes him even more uncomfortable, those students, Painful eyes flashed from time to time.

It stands to reason that he can calmly accept his unfree time in the future, after all, he is to blame for all this.

But why, his heart is so empty, even uneasy.

That's because none of this was achieved because of his hard work. His right arm didn't re-grow because of his own hard research and development experiments, but because of...

That mysterious man!
Thinking of this, Connors couldn't help trembling with his originally dull face, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

At that time, he was fighting Spider-Man on the rooftop of the Osborne Building. After he lost to the opponent, Peter, the kid, went crazy in front of his face, cursing on the empty ladder except for the two of them.

He thought the other party was crazy, but in the end he realized that the young one was himself.

Because at that time on the rooftop, apart from the two, there was indeed a third person, hidden in a dark place that could not be seen.

And this person, after Spider-Man and the Green Goblin left because of the battle, suddenly appeared in front of him in an overly mysterious way.

It was a man shrouded in a hazy red light, and even the voice that spoke to him was tinged with emptiness, making it impossible for him to discern the true identity of this man.

And it was this mysterious guy who, just by waving his hand, regenerated his right arm, which had been disabled for decades, and returned to normal.

Dr. Conners still can't forget the kind of direct shock.

At that time, he asked the other party urgently whether this change was temporary or permanent, but the other party gave him the answer that he needed him to do things for the other party.

Hehe, work!
Yes, anyway, he has been working for others all his life, and he is not afraid to do things for another person, as long as the other person can ensure that his arm can grow permanently and healthy on his body.

After all, falling from full of hope to the abyss again, that kind of psychological gap is not what he is willing to experience.

But now that he is in jail, how should he do things for the other party, and how long can he keep this arm.

But in the dark, Dr. Connors felt that a change was coming, and the other party would never let him go so easily.

In particular, I don't know how to explain it, even if the other party didn't show any figure at that time, even if the voice seemed to be nothing.

But there is always a sense of familiarity, faintly lingering in his heart.

He may have known this person already!
"Clang clang clang!"

The sound of a baton hitting the iron door awakened Dr. Connors who was in deep thought. Before he could react, the prison guard's voice came in: "Curtis Connors, someone is here to see you!"

Hearing the prison guard's voice, Connors was surprised. He didn't know that someone would come to visit him, but so what, given the crimes he committed and the contacts he had known, it was also a case of someone wanting to visit him suddenly. unusual.

When he was about to wait for the cell door to open and followed the prison guards to the meeting room, he was shocked to find two people standing in front of him outside the wide open cell door.

"My God, Alvin Hammer, how could it be you!"

It was Ivan who came, and the loyal Bullseye Dex accompanied him. The arrival of the two made Connors into a great shock.

How could they go directly into the cell to meet him? He should have gone to the meeting room to meet outsiders under the surveillance of the prison guards.

Seeing Ivan standing in front of him with a smile on his face, a strange sense of familiarity suddenly hit Connors' heart, and he suddenly wanted to shout loudly: "You, it's you, that night was..."

"Shh~~~"

As Ivan stretched his index finger in front of his lips, Dr. Connors' mouth suddenly closed involuntarily, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.

And this terrifying experience also made him completely confirm the identity of the other party.

Alvin Hammer, the mysterious man who recovered his right arm that night!

"It seems that you are in a good state now, let's go, fulfill our promise, now is the time for you to do things for me!"

Dr. Connors, who was unable to speak, looked at Ivan with a pair of extremely shocked, even terrified eyes. He never thought that Ivan Hammer actually possessed such terrifying power and such deep scheming.

What does he want to do!
Dr. Connors, who has no ability to refuse, or he never thought of rejecting Ivan at all, because he knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect that the real mysterious person was Ivan Hammer.

All the way out of Daocheng Prison, all the prison guards encountered on the road did not stop their behavior, so they left safely and easily.

More than an hour later, Dr. Connors saw the skyline of Manhattan again, and he returned to this bustling city.

It's just that he can imagine that in the future, he will no longer be able to walk on the street openly.

The convoy arrived in front of the building of Hammer Industry, and Dr. Connors was taken to the laboratory on the first floor, equipped with top-notch experimental equipment and manpower.

But he has only one research task, which is the trembling little bald boy in front of him!
