American TV series World Rescue

Chapter 9 I’m asking you if you’re afraid (please vote for recommendation)

At night.

On the table.

"Peter, is that enough? Do you want me to make some more for you?"

May Parker couldn't help but ask warmly when she saw Owen dividing the dinner she had specially added by three times. After eating, she was still unsatisfied.

"No, Aunt May."

Owen suppressed the urge to nod. The Parker family's income was very poor. With his body and appetite still developing after the mutation, if he really let go of eating, he would definitely destroy the family.

In the original time and space, the strength shown by Spider-Man is definitely not his own limit. Because the economy is so poor, even the rent is in arrears all day long, how can he have money to eat and drink?

In his memory, Spider-Man was very satisfied when the landlord's daughter bought him a sandwich and milk, which showed that Spider-Man was probably in a state of half-food for a long time.

"Ahem."

At this time, Ben Parker also finished eating, coughed slightly, Mei put away the plate, stood up and left.

"Peter, we need to talk."

"OK."

Owen smiled and said, "Uncle Ben, what do you want to talk about?"

"Hmm~"

Ben glanced at Owen in surprise and considered, "I heard you got into a fight at school?"

"Yes, but I didn't initiate it."

Owen explained.

"But you won the fight, didn't you?"

Ben said seriously.

"..."

Although he knew that Ben was a weird talker, after hearing Ben's logic with his own ears, Owen was still speechless and complained: "Can I just run away?"

"No, you don't have to run away, just..."

Except for the "strongest talker" who didn't know who taught him, Ben Parker has always been an honest man who is not good at words. When Irving asked him this question, he immediately panicked and quickly changed the subject.

"Listen, Peter, you are changing at this age. I have experienced it too. The changes in these few years will determine what kind of person you become in the future. Be careful not to go astray.

The person fighting with you may deserve it, but just because you can beat him doesn't mean you have the right to do so.

Remember: with great ability comes great responsibility~! "

After saying this strongest line of argument, Ben felt refreshed and looked at Owen with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Ben, do you know about the American War of Independence?"

Owen was noncommittal and instead asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

"Uh~"

Ben was stunned.

"Why did the United States have to resist in the first place? Being oppressed and taxed by the sovereign country is just a small problem. How many people were killed and injured in the war?"

Owen smiled and said: "In the Civil War, African Americans were slaves as long as they were slaves. Why did they go to war over this and so many people were killed and injured? In World War II, the island country was attacked by surprise. Why did they fight back and sacrifice more people for it?

Not to mention guiding the whole world and becoming the global police. Uncle Ben, according to your logic, the United States can indeed fight, but it does not mean that it has the right to fight, but it keeps fighting. This is obviously irresponsible behavior. ,Is it right? "

"right!"

Ben nodded and said: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This is indeed irresponsible behavior. Most of us are opposed to war."

"..."

Irving paused and complained in his heart: "I almost forgot, it's a basic operation for Americans to scold the imperial court~"

Fortunately, Irving was well prepared for this and did not expect that his words would impress the other party. He immediately changed the subject and said, "Uncle Ben, do you know BAU?"

"Are you talking about the Criminal Behavior Analysis Section of the FBI?"

Ben was stunned, unable to follow Owen's train of thought at all, but Americans have very complex and long-standing feelings towards criminals. Nowadays, the TV series Criminal Minds based on real cases is currently on the air, so Ben naturally knows about it.

"right."

Owen smiled playfully and said: "The BAU deals with serial murderers on the sidelines. The murders committed by these criminals range from a few people to hundreds of people. Their methods are cruel and horrifying."

"Peter~"

Ben shouted uneasily.

"The BAU conducted a comprehensive analysis of their criminal psychology. In addition to criminal genes and mental illness, the most mentioned thing was that they suffered major setbacks when they were young, which laid the foundation for crime, and then suddenly broke out once they reached the critical point."

Owen smiled to himself: "There are many examples of people who were bullied on campus when they were students, and then went crazy and killed them when they grew up. There are also many honest people who treat others gently all their lives, but when they reach middle age, one day they suddenly There are those who go crazy, kill people for fun, and even kill their loved ones. Uncle Ben, what do you think the reason is?"

Ben looked shocked and opened his mouth, but no words came out.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This statement is true."

Owen said warmly: "But uncle Ben, if you interpret it as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, you are totally wrong. Or a more correct statement should be that greater responsibility requires greater ability. With stronger ability, you can choose Take greater responsibility, but only if you have the right to choose.

In the case of Fisher and others who continue to bully me, I have the ability and the right to defeat them. Why can't I resist them? It is better to block than to open up. If you just tolerate it, the final result will be that you will suffer for the rest of your life, or else you will be depressed for half your life and become a serial killer around you.

Uncle Ben, what kind of life do you want me to choose? "

"..."

Ben was speechless. When it came to rhetoric, he only had one thing to say. Irving could not say anything too early and prepared. More importantly, the examples Irving gave were really scary. When I thought about Irving being bullied for a long time, I felt depressed. He shuddered at the possibility of transforming into a sideline serial killer.

"so~"

Seeing that Ben 'understood', Owen comforted him in a gentle voice: "I won't offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will offend them. This is the best choice."

"Peter, you, you, eh..."

I wanted to say something, but my mind was empty. In the end, it turned into a long sigh. I sighed that Irving was speechless when he refuted him, but I was also vaguely happy that Irving had an independent opinion.

"What do you think about the school bus driver?"

"...He's outrageous, and there should be no person like that as a school bus driver."

Owen told the story of the school bus driver who bullied his predecessor in the past.

"Is it too much?"

Ben subconsciously objected: "Besides, this is different from student fights. This is related to the life of George's family. The economy is not good now and it's hard to find a job..."

"He'll find another job, won't he?"

Owen said indifferently: "This leisurely and bullying job has been lost. As long as he wants to, he can always sell his strength. Besides, if he doesn't do anything, there will be no state subsidies. Even if he becomes a homeless man, there will be With help from various charities, he won’t starve to death.”

The social welfare in the United States is very good, with various subsidies, even for having children. Many families only have three or four children in their lifetime, so they are not wealthy. However, with the subsidies for having three or four children, they can still have basic living expenses even if they don't work. of.

Coupled with the assistance provided by various charitable organizations, the number of lazy and homeless people created is definitely at the leading level in the world. Irving doesn't think that the other party will not be able to survive if he loses his job, and even if he cannot survive, what does it have to do with him?
