American comics: Starting as the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast

three days later.

morning.

Roy was awakened from his sleep by his cell phone ringing.

Opening his eyes, he saw that the person calling was Gwen, suppressed his morning grumpiness from being woken up, and pressed the answer button.

Before he could speak, Gwen's voice rang out.

"Dr. Connors is in trouble."

Gwen said immediately.

"Something's happened! What happened?"

Roy asked.

He's missing!

"When the cleaners were cleaning, they found his office in a complete mess, as if it had been ransacked by thugs."

"The situation in the laboratory is even worse; a large amount of equipment has been damaged."

"The cleaner reported it to his superiors immediately, but to this day, no one knows what happened last night, and no one can contact him."

Gwen said quickly.

After listening to Gwen's story, Roy frowned slightly.

A week ago, after Gwen told him that something was wrong with Dr. Connors, he took some time to go to the Osborn Building and used his Chakra Sensing Technique to sense Dr. Connors' condition.

Based on the perceived vitality, Dr. Connors' condition was normal, with no indication of having been injected with lizard serum.

"Where are you now, at the Osborne Building?"

Roy asked.

"No, I'm home."

"The cross-species genetics project has been temporarily suspended, and the company has asked everyone to go home and wait for further notice."

Gwen continued.

"Okay, I'll come find you in a bit."

Roy spoke slowly.

"Uh-huh."

"Grace replied gently."

After ending the call, Roy put his phone aside, got up, and headed to the bathroom.

Although we don't know exactly what happened to Dr. Connors, based on the current situation, it is very likely that Dr. Connors lost control after being injected with lizard serum.

In the movie "The Amazing Spider-Man", he and Peter's father Richard Parker are colleagues, both working at the Osborn Corporation, and researching cross-species genetics together.

Peter's father chose spiders as the target for cross-species inheritance.

He chose the lizard as his target.

After obtaining the decay rate algorithm left by Peter's father, he finally broke through the problem that had plagued him for more than ten years and developed a serum containing lizard DNA with super regenerative effects that could regenerate severed limbs.

However, in this universe, Dr. Connors has absolutely no connection with Peter's family.

Peter's father was not a scientist, nor did he work for the Osborne Group.

Brush your teeth, wash your face, and do your hair.

After changing into clean clothes, Roy was preparing to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to head to Gwen's rooftop when his phone rang.

He thought it was Gwen calling.

It turned out that it wasn't Gwen; the screen displayed an unfamiliar number without a contact name.

Without thinking twice, he answered the phone.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, Norman Osborn."

Norman?

Roy frowned slightly and continued, "What is it?"

"I have a commission, I wonder if you'd be interested in taking it?"

Norman didn't beat around the bush and replied quickly.

"What request? To find the missing Dr. Connors?"

Roy spoke slowly.

Hearing his words, Norman smiled and said, "It seems your girlfriend has already contacted you. That's right, I wanted to ask you to go see Dr. Connors."

"He took some things that belonged to the Osborn Group, and I hope he will return them."

After Norman finished speaking, Roy did not give an immediate reply and fell silent.

After a dozen seconds, realizing that the system hadn't approved Norman's request, he asked, "How much are you willing to pay to commission me?"

1000.

Norman replied immediately without any hesitation.

"1000 million is too little."

"I'm not interested in taking on commissions below 5000 million these days."

Roy spoke slowly.

Although Norman's commission failed the system's assessment, he wouldn't mind making a move if Norman was willing to spend 5000 million.

He had previously made some requests that did not pass the system's judgment.

Whether the commission has passed the system's judgment is not the only reason he accepts the commission.

If he is not interested in the rewards offered by the system, he will not accept them even if he passes the system's judgment.

Similarly, he might not refuse a commission that hasn't passed the evaluation.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the lowest-paid commission he ever took.

That was a commission with a fee of only $100.

The client is a middle-aged man who is raising his daughter alone.

The client's wife died in a car accident when their daughter was only three years old.

Although her job was just an ordinary supermarket sales clerk, the person who entrusted her with the care of her daughter took very good care of her.

His daughter also lived up to expectations, getting into Columbia University, an Ivy League school, from an ordinary, neutral high school.

If things continue this way, their lives will improve completely after their daughter graduates.

However, less than a month after starting college, his daughter died from acute drug poisoning at a freshman party.

His daughter doesn't do drugs, and she doesn't even smoke.

According to the police investigation, the person who caused his daughter's acute drug poisoning was also a freshman, and was even his daughter's classmate.

Not only that, this boy is also a second-generation rich kid and a second-generation official.

The boy's father is a senator, and his mother is a director of a listed company.

Although the boy's goal was not to kill the client's daughter, but to take advantage of her unconsciousness to do some adult things.

According to normal legal judgment, he would certainly be charged with manslaughter and attempted rape.

In the end, the boy was only given a suspended sentence.

The client, having heard of the existence of the "Fourth Hokage" somewhere, sent him a request for commission that was tens of thousands of words long on a dark web forum.

This commission is not only Roy's lowest-paid commission to date, but also the one with the most words.

Although the commission statement was written in a very touching manner, he did not completely believe the client's claims and spent some time investigating it himself.

After confirming that the information provided by the client was true, he accepted the commission.

The commission given by the principal is all of his or her own property.

If that's not enough, you can borrow from loan sharks.

Roy refused, asking for only $100.

The rest is quite simple.

He didn't have to exert much effort to get the boy out of the villa and hand him over to the client, as requested.

The client had no idea what the boy did afterward.

However, a week later, he saw the news in the newspaper that his client had turned himself in.

As for the boy, according to the police's subsequent investigation, his dismembered and inhuman body was found in the sewer, and could only be identified by DNA.

"5000 million is too much. With your abilities, find..."

Before Norman could finish speaking, Roy hung up the phone.

He will not force clients to pay exorbitant fees, but once he sets a price, he will not give them a chance to negotiate.

He knew exactly how much he wanted to be paid.

Haggling implies that the other party does not acknowledge his efforts.

Since you don't agree, there's nothing more to talk about.
