Chapter 41

After Spider-Man and the police finished cleaning up the mutant together, Sheriff George raised his gun and aimed it at Peter Parker.

"Spider-Man, come back to the station with me. Take off your mask and reveal your identity!"

The audience had thought the sheriff was going to threaten Spider-Man, and they had been quite worried.

Then Sheriff George lowered his gun again.

"Relax, I'm just asking you to give a statement. Under federal law, you also have the right to refuse to remove your mask."

Just then, the Green Goblin stepped onto his glider, grabbed Gwen in one hand, and flew up above the Osborn Building.

"Gwen! No!!!"

His girlfriend was captured, and Spider-Man's heart sank.

Seeing Spider-Man's reaction, Officer George frowned.

That voice... he had instinctively called out his daughter's name just now, does that mean...

"Go! You go! Please, save my daughter!"

Sheriff George finally set aside his prejudice.

"Leave it to me, she'll be fine!"

Spider-Man shot a web and flew up.

Sheriff George wasn't reassured, so he personally led officers charging into the Osborn Building.

The heroine was held hostage by the villain, and the audience's hearts clenched again—could Gwen truly not escape her fate of death?

Watching Peter launch himself toward the top of the building like a slingshot.

Before the Green Goblin could react, Spider-Man's slingshot flying kick landed heavily on his face!

Kicking the Green Goblin away, Spider-Man caught Gwen in his arms mid-air, and shot a web to anchor himself to the building.

"Got you!"

"Peter! Over there!"

Gwen discovered in horror that the Green Goblin had gone utterly mad, firing missiles to bomb the observation elevator!

It was packed with researchers in white coats, who had wanted to take the elevator to escape, but the Green Goblin had set his sights on them!

"Oh—Come on? Is there ever an end to this?"

Peter complained helplessly—there was no time to pull Gwen up, so he could only let her hold onto the web and stand on this small platform.

"Wait, I'm coming right now! Don't look down!"

The elevator cables had already snapped, and it plummeted at high speed!

Spider-Man arrived in time, shot a web to catch the elevator, and with superhuman strength, desperately stopped it from falling!

"Aaaaaaaaa—"

The downward momentum was too great, and Spider-Man nearly gouged two deep furrows into the building's outer wall.

After catching the elevator, Spider-Man fired several more webs in succession, flipped up to the top floor, and tried to pull the elevator up.

"Yahahahaha---"

Hearing that laugh, the damned Green Goblin was back again!

While Spider-Man was in a flurry, the Green Goblin seized the chance to unleash a barrage and beat Spider-Man down.

Immediately after, he flew down to scoop up Gwen, and grabbed the web with his other hand to hold the elevator!

"Spider-Man! You like being a hero, right? Today I'll let you be one to your heart's content!"

"On this side is the woman you love, on the other side are innocent civilians! Ever heard of the trolley problem? This trolley problem was tailor-made for you!"

"Yahahaha... being a hero comes with a price!"

Caught in the Green Goblin's hand, Gwen was still very brave.

"Go save them! Don't worry, I won't—"

Before she could finish, the Green Goblin had already let go with both hands at once!

"Shit!"

Such a crisis scene made the audience's hearts pound with terror!

Spider-Man faced an agonizingly painful choice!

They didn't even have time to eat their popcorn—clutching it by their mouths, jaws wide open, they stared fixedly at the screen, afraid of missing a single moment!
