The Martial God of the Marvel World

Chapter 235 Uncle Ben's Death
Peter was kicked out of the office by Director Garrett, but he had no way to deal with it, because no matter how he thought about it, he knew that he was in the wrong in the first place.

He thought about it, but couldn't find a solution to the problem. At present, SHIELD clearly regarded the false evidence provided by Hydra as real, but he couldn't find a way to destroy this evidence.

As an ordinary high school student, his experience is too shallow, and the solutions he can think of to solve the problem are very limited.

He even had an impulse to just join Hydra. He thought the Hydra people would tell him what was wrong with the evidence. Or if that didn't work, he could just do as his master said and rush in to kill and solve the problem the way he was best at.

Fortunately, his reason controlled his impulse and he did not make a big mistake.

With a sad face, he came to the SHIELD's prison cell again to visit Uncle Ben and Aunt May.

After hearing what Peter said, Uncle Ben seemed to have aged dozens of years, his waist became bent, and his back became hunched.

"In other words, Mei and I have both been identified as Hydra, and there is no way to change that?"

"No, uncle, as long as I can find a way to prove that this is false evidence, I can clear you of the injustice." Peter explained quickly.

"Well, Peter, do you have any idea?" Uncle Ben looked up, his eyes full of expectation.

Uncle Ben has always taken care of Peter as an elder, and this is the first time Uncle Ben has expectations for Peter. If he is not in the prison cell but at home, Peter will be very happy, but now, he only feels heartache.

"I, I don't have any other options. But..." Peter hesitated for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "Hydra contacted me privately. As long as I am willing to join them..."

"No!" Uncle Ben immediately interrupted him in a harsh voice, "I would rather bear the stigma and be sent to prison than to see you go astray!"

Peter protested: "But, but you are obviously not Hydra, but S.H.I.E.L.D. can't tell right from wrong..."

"Peter, this world does not revolve around any one person, and not everything can always run according to the correct rules. No one can always have smooth sailing. There are a lot of people in prison who are wrongfully imprisoned..."

Uncle Ben took a breath and continued sadly:

"It is precisely because of this that the criminal appeal system was established, state compensation exists, and many people support the abolition of the death penalty, because once a person dies, everything is gone, and even if the appeal is successful in the future, it cannot be compensated."

"This world is not perfect, and injustice may happen to everyone. Why should I be an exception?"

"But no matter how the world treats you, you can't give up on yourself. You must be true to yourself and be responsible for your own life. If you feel that the world is not good enough, then find a way to make it better, instead of going along with it!"

Peter's face flushed, he lowered his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, uncle, I shouldn't have said that, I was just too worried about you."

"I understand how you feel, but you are still young, and this is the time to shape your values. Don't make any mistakes, or you will regret it forever."

"Peter, you have to remember that there are many dark places in this world, but there are more truth, goodness and beauty. You can't let the darkness blind you."

After coming out of the cell, Peter finally regained his spirits. He was very sure that Uncle Ben was definitely not Hydra. He decided to continue the investigation, starting with the false evidence.

He went to see Director Garrett again, wanting to see the evidence, but Director Garrett was obviously angry with him and refused to see him. However, he also had some acquaintances in S.H.I.E.L.D., so through some means, he still got what he wanted.

He didn't know how to distinguish physical evidence, so he skipped it for now and focused on the witnesses. Then he found that there was a witness whose name was not marked behind him, but the decisive evidence that ultimately convicted Uncle Ben and Aunt May came from that person. His intuition told him that this witness was the breakthrough. He tried to ask a friend to help find the name and address of this witness, but this person was obviously included in the witness plan, and all information was kept confidential, and only Director Garrett had the authority to do so.

Peter had no choice but to start with the other people. As for the identity of the last witness, he might as well wait a few days until Director Garrett calmed down and then go find him.

Peter went to several places and interviewed all the witnesses, but unfortunately, all of them insisted that Ben Parker was Hydra.

Peter knew clearly that they were lying, but he just couldn't see through it. Moreover, although their confessions were different, they fit together perfectly after being crossed over, allowing the intelligence personnel to piece together the results they wanted.

After a busy day, there was no final result.

Peter called Gwen halfway through the meeting, but the call was hung up. He had no choice but to return home and grab some food to fill his stomach.

That night, Thomas called again.

"Hey, Peter, I mean what I say, right? Whoever I say is Hydra is Hydra, and those idiots at SHIELD can't tell the difference at all."

Thomas' voice was filled with pride, and seeing that the fruit was about to ripen, he came over to pick them.

"Your uncle and aunt are not young anymore. If they go to prison, they may not get out alive. The only way to save them is in your hands. What do you think? Have you changed your mind?"

Peter snorted coldly and shouted into the phone: "Stop dreaming! I will never join Hydra in my life!" Then he immediately hung up the phone.

Thomas on the other end of the line stared at the dropped call, stunned.

Didn't the experts from SHIELD say that Peter's trust in SHIELD has been shaken? This doesn't sound like it!

He hurriedly called his superiors to report, and then SHIELD carefully checked the surveillance and discovered Peter's mental changes before and after the meeting with Ben Parker.

"It seems that Ben Parker has a great influence on Peter. In this case, we can't keep this Ben Parker. Let's get rid of him!"

The next morning, Peter was awakened by a shrill phone call. As soon as he answered the phone, he heard someone on the other end tell him in a cold voice: "Ben Parker committed suicide in the cell last night."

Peter was stunned by these words, as if struck by lightning. It took him a long time to react. When he wanted to ask more, he found that the other party had already hung up the phone.

He quickly put on his clothes and rushed to S.H.I.E.L.D. When he arrived at S.H.I.E.L.D., he saw Uncle Ben's cold body and a white shirt next to it with "I am not Hydra" written in blood.

The head of SHIELD handed him a tablet computer with surveillance footage of the cell. Peter saw with his own eyes that Uncle Ben got up from the bed, picked up a white shirt, bit his finger, wrote blood on it, and then hanged himself. The time stamp of the video was 2:47 last night.

"The evidence is irrefutable. It was pure suicide. There is no need for an autopsy or in-depth investigation. He died to make his will known. Of course, it is also possible that he committed suicide out of fear of punishment."

Peter wanted to retort, but he didn't know where to start!
I want to curse, but I don’t know who to curse!

I want to vent, I want to smash things, I want to kill people...but my reason refuses to do so!
