Chapter 1209

"How do you know about the briefcase and the decay rate algorithm?" Peter Parker looked at Su Quan in surprise, his eyes widened like copper bells.

"I know everything."

Su Quan shrugged and continued with a shocking statement: "I not only know that your father left behind the decay rate algorithm, but I also know that he left you another wealth that cannot be measured by money."

"Honestly, your father was a bit of a dog in how he did things."

Peter Parker frowned: "I won't allow you to talk about my father like that!"

Su Quan shrugged: "I'm stating facts, and besides, I said it, what can you do? Hit me? Scold me? Do you believe I'll flip his coffin lid?"

Since it concerned his father, and Peter Parker was a hot-blooded teenager, how could he endure it now? Without thinking, he let out a shout and swung his fist directly at Su Quan.

Professor Curt Connors, who was on the side, saw this, and even though he only had one arm left, he wanted to pull Peter Parker back immediately, while Gwen Stacy stood directly in front of Su Quan, wanting to protect Su Quan with her body.

"The truth—don't you want to know it anymore?"

Su Quan's calm voice made the angry Peter Parker stop instantly. He stared at Su Quan angrily: "The truth! Tell me the truth!"

Su Quan patted Gwen Stacy on the shoulder, kissed her cheek with a smile, and then, under her slightly shy gaze, slowly began to talk about what happened back then.

"Your father, Richard Parker, was a researcher at Osborn Corp back then, researching genetic engineering together with Professor Connors. But after the research succeeded, your father worried that Osborn Corp would use this research for illegal profit, so he and your mother took the research and ran away."

"The Osborn family has a natural genetic disease called Retroviral Hyperplasia. The genetic engineering your father and Professor Connors researched was to cure this disease."

"Osborn Corp invested a huge amount of funds into this project and also gave your father and Professor Connors very generous personal treatment, but your father used the groundless excuse of 'worrying that Osborn Corp would use this research for illegal profit' to take away the results of the project that Osborn Corp had invested funds to research."

"Do you think this is appropriate?"

"Why didn't he have this worry at the beginning of the experiment? Moreover, did Osborn Corp use this research for illegal profit? No, right? It was just his worry, and then he ran away with the results!"

"Taking a step back, does a giant company like Osborn Corp, with a scale of hundreds of billions of dollars, need to use this project for illegal profit? Would it earn more than normal profits?"

Peter Parker opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to defend himself, but had nothing to say.

"Norman Osborn, in order to cure himself and his descendants of the genetic disease, paid out of his own pocket to find people to research the project, but after the research succeeded, the researcher ran away with the results. So, is he wrong to send people to catch the researcher and want to get the results back?"

Su Quan's words were like a knife, fiercely stabbing into Peter Parker.

If what Su Quan said was all true, then his father was indeed—indeed a bit unethical.

"You think your father only did these things? No, no, no, he also did something even more excessive to Osborn," Su Quan sneered.

Peter Parker asked hesitantly: "What, what else did he do?"

"The decay rate algorithm is true, but even with the decay rate algorithm, this experiment wouldn't easily succeed! Or rather, this experiment could only succeed with you!"

"Wh—why?" Peter Parker was puzzled, not understanding why it could only succeed with him.

Su Quan curled his lips: "Because your father mixed his genes into the bred spiders, so that only he and his descendants would mutate if bitten by the spiders!"

"This is what I said, the wealth your father left you that cannot be measured by money. You can possess various extraordinary and powerful abilities because of this, and from then on, a loser becomes a hero!"

Peter Parker was silent, and Professor Curt Connors was also silent.

Especially Professor Curt Connors. After Richard Parker's accident, he stayed behind to continue researching this project, hindered by Osborn Corp's threats and his ambition to restore his arm.

At the same time, he cut off contact with the Parker family and never went to see Peter Parker.

He did this partly to protect Peter Parker, and partly because he felt ashamed, feeling he had failed his sacrificed friend.

But now, hearing Su Quan say this, Professor Curt Connors just wanted to say, "Screw him!"

So everyone was screwed by you, and others' investment and others' efforts all ended up benefiting your son?

Su Quan was right; you were truly a dog in how you did things!

"Let's make a deal."

"You assist Professor Connors in completing the experiment, and I will let you obtain superpowers and have the Osborn family forgive your father's actions and stop pursuing them."

Just when Peter Parker was overwhelmed by the truth, Su Quan spoke up.

Peter Parker was stunned and said: "My father is already dead."
