Chapter 128 Family Dinner
[Parker looked at the European sea bass on the plate with a knife and fork, not knowing where to start.]
[“This is a bit difficult to handle, isn’t it? The fish head should be… Help Gwen’s friend cut the fish!” Gwen’s mother saw Parker’s expression and knew that he had never eaten it before, so she asked her son to help. ]
[“I… I have no idea!” Parker was a little embarrassed, and Gwen whispered to him: “European sea bass!”]
【“George! Tell us about what happened today!” asked Mrs. Stacy. 】
"Did you catch the Spider-Man?" their young son asked.
[“NO! We haven’t caught him yet, but we will catch him. He has little experience and attacks ordinary citizens in the middle of the night. He is clumsy and leaves a lot of clues, but he is still very dangerous.”]
[George Stacy took a bite of the fish and said calmly, showing disdain for Spider-Man's performance.]
[Hearing George's words, Parker was a little surprised: "He attacked ordinary citizens? I'm not sure. I watched a video about... him and the car thief. I think most people would think he was... getting rid of harm to the people!"]
George looks at Parker and says, "Most people are wrong! If I wanted to catch that car thief, he would have been caught by the police long ago!"
[Parker casually asked: "Then why is he still stealing cars?"]
【Seeing Parker still arguing with him, George looked at him unhappily. Gwen smiled awkwardly. Due to the presence of his daughter, George could not get angry and could only explain.】
[“Let me explain it to you! The car thief will lead us to the mastermind. This is a six-month undercover operation! It’s called strategy. I believe you know this word! Have you heard of it in school?”]
【“Yeah!” Parker nodded, admitting that George was right. 】
【“GOOD!” George nodded with satisfaction. 】
[Gwen smiled at her mother, who nodded and whispered, "I know!"]
[“Obviously he doesn’t know you have a plan!” Parker said to George while taking a bite of fish.]
[“You seem to know a lot… Do you know something we don’t? Which side do you support?” George squinted at Parker. ]
[“I don’t support either side. I watched a video online…”]
[Parker was interrupted by George before he finished speaking: "Oh! You watched a video on the Internet and the case was solved?"]
[“Oh no! If you watched that video… maybe I could send you a link? It looks like he wants to help?” Parker tried to convince George, but it was clear that George didn’t agree with him.]
[“I’m sure he looks like a popular hero on the Internet!” George thought Parker might have thought he was a hero after watching a video.]
[“NO! NO! I’m not saying he’s a hero, I don’t think he is…” Parker said, shaking his hands. He is Spider-Man, how can he boast that he is a hero?]
[But George didn't quite understand what Parker meant, "So what do you want to say?"]
[“I think he wanted to help, he wanted to do something that the police couldn’t do.” Parker’s original intention was to help the police catch thieves, but he made it sound as if the police were incompetent, which caused George’s dissatisfaction.]
[“What the police can’t do?” He squinted at Parker, his favorability towards Parker dropping again and again, “What do you think we’re doing? Sitting there eating donuts? Not doing anything?”]
【Seeing the tension between the two getting stronger and stronger, Gwen and Helen Stacy hurriedly stopped them, saying, “Dad!” “George! George!”】
[His son was a little curious to know what the hell George was talking about, "What are you talking about, Dad!" Mrs. Stacy stopped her son's curiosity: "Howard!"]
[Parker expressed his thoughts to George Stacy, "I think he is on the same side as you, protecting innocent people from harm!"]
“I stand for law and order, that’s what being a cop is about, okay? I’m wearing a badge, and that guy’s wearing a mask, like a gangster, and he’s hunting down a bunch of criminals who look alike! Like he has a personal vendetta!”
[“He’s not protecting innocent citizens! Mr. Parker!” George’s words left Parker speechless, because as he said, what he wanted more was to catch the murderer! ]
[Gwen saw that the two of them were not getting along very well, so she decided to pull Parker out first to prevent the relationship between the two from becoming more strained, "Let's go out and get some fresh air! Peter!"]
[Then he said to George: "Dad! We need to talk!"]
[“That’s right!” George was a little dissatisfied with Parker. He didn’t quite understand why his daughter liked Peter Parker. He didn’t see any advantages in him. ]
[Parker put down his cutlery and apologized to George: "Thank you for inviting me. I'm very sorry! If I offended you, it was not my intention!"]
[George replied calmly: "You're welcome!"]
[“The European sea bass is delicious! Mrs. Stacy! Thank you!” Parker stood up and thanked Mrs. Helen Stacy again. ]
【“You’re welcome!” Compared to George, Helen Stacy’s attitude towards Parker was much better. 】
"Oh! It seems that you and my father are not happy about that!" Gwen carefully sat down with Parker's help and said to Parker with a smile.
"Yeah! Actually, he is right. I am not protecting innocent citizens. I am just hunting down the murderer who killed Uncle Ben."
Parker admitted that his thinking was a bit narrow-minded, that his goal was revenge, not protecting the citizens!
At this time, George hurried in from the door with a bag of rubber balls in his hand. This was a technique Parker came up with to help Gwen train to master her own strength.
Because just now Gwen had crushed a door handle, two cups, a spoon, a chair and her table, and she had also dented the wall with her elbow.
Parker had to figure out this way to quickly make Gwen realize how hard she should use so as not to hurt the furniture or other people.
George took one out of the bag and handed it to Gwen. The next second after Gwen took it and held it, the rubber ball exploded.
"Wow!!!" Parker used his spider sense to dodge at the critical moment, but George's suit was covered with rubber fragments.
"I'm sorry! Daddy!" Gwen looked at George Stacy embarrassedly. George sighed helplessly and prepared to go out and take off his coat.
Before leaving, he said to Parker, "Let her adapt to her own strength as soon as possible, Peter!" He didn't want his home to be destroyed by Gwen.
"Okay!" Parker made an OK gesture, and then George closed the door.
Helen Stacy pulled her two sons and whispered to George, "What's going on?" George pointed to the plasticine on his body, shrugged and said nothing.
