The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 45: Dance Farce
“Thank you to the Mary Janes for their wonderful performance. Let’s give them a round of applause.”

The host, Harry Osborn, actively mobilized the atmosphere and led the applause.

In fact, he didn't even need to do anything, as the atmosphere on the scene had already been pushed to its peak by Mary Janes' explosive stage performance.

"I knew you were the best!"

"Those rookies from the Midtown band are no match for you!"

"I love you so much Mary Jane!"

The sudden courtship caused an uproar at the scene, and American teenagers who were looking for excitement and liked to be rebellious sent their blessings to the Warriors.

"It's Thompson!" "I've always known he likes Mary Jane."

"But isn't Mary Jane with Peter?" "Everyone knows Peter and Thompson don't get along, so this is going to be fun.

"Where's Peter? Has anyone seen Peter?" "Shh! Don't get involved."

Normally, at this time, the host of the party would either calm the audience and cleverly change the topic, or take the opportunity to liven up the atmosphere and act as a matchmaker, but these were obviously not options for Harry.

"Look who's that? It's the crybaby Lightning Boy! Wake up, no one likes a loser who cries after getting beaten in a fight."

When Harry saw someone trying to seduce his good friend's woman, he directly opened the microphone and scolded the person. He really opened the microphone and the whole venue could hear what Harry said.

The most feared thing when scolding someone is that their weaknesses are exposed. Being beaten by Peter and crying can be said to be the real shame of Thompson's high school career. During that period, anyone could step on his head. If he had not joined the rugby club and his performance improved by 10%, it is very likely that he would have directly become the bottom of the school and become the target of bullying.

Thompson, whose reverse scale was touched, was so angry that his face turned red, and he started cursing without caring about anything.

"Fuck! Who are you calling a crybaby, you bastard!"

The simple-minded Thompson only said some dirty words that children couldn't hear, but these obviously couldn't make Harry angry. Harry opened his mouth again with a sarcastic tone.

"Oh~ It seems I have to take back what I said, otherwise Crybaby Thompson will start crying again~"

Harry deliberately used a funny tone and actions, causing the students in the venue to burst into laughter.

The students were happy, but the teachers frowned. The male teachers began to squeeze to the front of the stage, ready to stop the farce, otherwise the quarrel might escalate into a physical conflict.

Thompson was already angry after being ridiculed by Harry again, and his anger escalated after hearing the laughter from the people around him. He pushed the people around him away and ran onto the stage to beat Harry up.

Harry seemed to be completely fearless, but in fact he had quietly tightened the microphone in his hand, ready to give Thompson a big blow.

Seeing that Thompson had lost his mind, the teachers immediately shouted warnings and pushed forward even harder. However, in order to make the students feel more comfortable, the teachers were basically on the periphery of the venue and could not keep up with Thompson in terms of speed. In order to confess his love, Thompson, who had occupied an excellent position, had already jumped onto the stage.

Just as the teachers were despairing and the students were watching excitedly, a figure stood between Harry and Thompson.

It was Mary Jane, who stopped the angry Thompson.

"I think Peter will definitely like to see what comes next." Yang Le, who had already put away the VCR, saw this scene, took it out again, and started a new round of recording.

"Get out of the way Mary Jane, this is between the two of us."

Thompson was already furious, but he stopped when he saw the woman he loved.

"I'm going to give him a good beating!"

"Wow! I'm so scared, I'm about to cry, but my crying might not be very pretty. Can you teach me, crybaby?"

Harry started to mock Thompson again, and at the same time, he added a loud voice to the whole audience, which caused a new round of laughter.

"Okay, Harry, stop provoking him." Mary Jane turned around and said helplessly, while Thompson's hair stood on end in anger. "Thanks for the kindness, Thompson, but I already have someone I like."

"Why? Is it true, as the rumors say, that you like bean sprouts?"

All of Harry's sarcasm just now might not have been as lethal as this one sentence. After Thompson got red-hot, Mary Jane broke through his defense again.

"Take that back, Thompson." This time it was Gwen, not Mary Jane, who spoke, and before she knew it, the other members of the Mary Janes were standing next to Mary Jane, all glaring at him.

Harry was one of them, by the way, but he was blocked by the girls and no one could see him.

"Shut up Stacey, I'm not asking you!" Thompson roared.

"Crack."

The video recorder made a strange noise when Yang Le pinched it. Yang Le thought that Thompson might need some extracurricular tutoring, the more intense kind.

"Apologize to my friend, Thompson." After Thompson yelled at Gwen, Mary Jane completely lost her good attitude towards him and no longer cared about Thompson's face.

"Why! How am I not as good as him?" Thompson, who had lost his mind, questioned Mary Jane again.

"Sorry, that's a long story, and I'm not going to waste my time on you," Mary Jane said coldly.

"Wow!" "That's too harsh."

"That's so cool Mary Jane!" "I'm going to be your fan forever!"

"Get out of here, Thompson!" "Yes! Get out of here! No one wants to see clowns outside of the circus!"

"Clown!" "Clown!" "Clown!"

"Shut up! Everybody shut up!" Thompson turned and yelled at the audience. "I said! Everybody shut up!"

The teachers who wanted to stop this became even more desperate. The students had already begun to consciously form a human wall to prevent them from passing. Their warnings were drowned out by the voices of the crowd, and they could only helplessly watch what was happening before their eyes.

"I'm done." This was the inner voice of the teachers present.

Thompson looked angry on the surface, but he was actually scared. Now he had completely become the bottom of the school. He had stood against all the students in the school. No one would be friends with him anymore. He was now the victim of bullying.

And the ones who caused all this were Peter Parker and Mary Jane!

Thompson looked resentfully at Mary Jane, who had already turned her back to pack up her instruments. It was all because of Mary Jane. Why didn't she accept his confession? If she had accepted, none of this would have happened. In fact, because of this confession, he would have become a celebrity in the school. No! He should have been a celebrity!
Not a funny clown!

"Why..." Thompson murmured with his head down, slowly moving his feet towards Mary Jane.

"Why!"

Thompson suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Mary Jane.

"careful!"

The people in the front row who saw it immediately shouted to warn, but they were still drowned out by the deafening cries of "clowns".

Thompson's eyes were filled with resentment as he stared at Mary Jane's back. Just when he was about to reach her, he felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

"You are under arrest, Thompson." Gwen looked at Thompson lying on the ground with great heroism.

"Sheriff Stacy said so."

(Unexpectedly, I didn’t pigeon, but this is another kind of pigeon.)
