Chapter 1036: The Shocking Commoner (Part 14)

~12 min read 2,237 words

Ma Te rambled on: "This trip for revenge gave Elektra too much confidence, making her blindly optimistic about the future."

"She said that now is an era of rapid development, and humanity is accelerating into the universe. Our child shouldn't miss this magnificent era. She feels we have the ability to protect him."

Ma Te shook his head and said: "She didn't see the problems hidden under the beautiful vision of rapid development. Putting safety issues aside, I also don't want my child to become a drifter in an era of collision between technological and ideological changes. I hope he can have a more stable growth environment..."

Shiler sighed lightly. This was not a category that a psychologist could manage. Ma Te and Elektra's ideas were both fine; it could only be said that one was inclined to be conservative, and the other was inclined to be radical.

Ma Te didn't want his child to become a test subject for the development of the era. He hoped to wait until the situation was more stable before making plans. Elektra felt that now was the era of dividends, and having a child early could get a head start, allowing the child to seize opportunities as early as possible.

This kind of disagreement between husband and wife had no right or wrong, and it wasn't that the two had any psychological problems. It could only be said that it was because their growth experiences were different, and their worldviews were different.

Elektra was the daughter of a diplomat. Her father had always regarded her as the apple of his eye and had taken her to see many big scenes. She had a broad vision since she was a child and had many views on international situations and future development.

Because Elektra understood the previous international situation better, she felt that the current situation of the whole world uniting to enter the universe was hard-won. She wanted herself and her family to seize this opportunity, which was understandable.

Ma Te's father was a boxer, born from the bottom. Ma Te's current social status was all obtained through his own struggle, belonging to the type who crossed the class barrier through his own efforts. He pursued stability more and felt that his own hard struggle was to create a good living environment for future generations, and he was unwilling to take risks with future generations.

Shiler thought for a while and then opened his mouth to say: "Recently, I received a patient. He is not old, only a few years older than Peter. Recently, because he was stimulated, he has been hospitalized, but the situation is improving."

"He has had more time of restored sanity recently, so I chatted with him about his growth background. His name is Luo Bote. Oh, you should have heard of his other nickname, which is Speedball among the New Warriors."

Ma Te frowned and said: "New Warriors? You mean that group of young superhero teams that show off in the media and don't do any real work?"

"Yes, but they have already disbanded. Some of the members were absorbed by S. H. I. E. L. D. and are busy maintaining local public security. Some members who were mutants themselves joined the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters and went to the Andromeda Galaxy for internships."

Shiler sighed and said: "Luo Bote's personality has big problems. What he shows is excessive self-consciousness and strong vanity, but in fact, his willpower is fragile and he is easily collapsed by small things."

"He is always in a state of terror, afraid that others will expose his disguise. He is irritable and provocative, but in fact, he is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, fierce in appearance but faint in heart."

"According to my understanding of his family, this is precisely caused by the disagreement of his parents' education of him." Shiler shook his head, looking somewhat regretful, and said: "His father is a prosecutor, and his mother is an opera actress."

"His father is about the same as you, born in a civilian family, and obtained everything he has now through his own efforts. He hopes his son will be focused, diligent, serious, sufficiently hardworking, and sufficiently excellent. He must stand out from his peers and must never be looked down upon."

"And his mother comes from a better background, from a wealthy family. She learned dance and drama since she was a child and became an excellent opera actress. She dotes on Luo Bote very much and feels that her child is happy no matter what. She even tends to spend money to settle things when Luo Bote causes trouble, rather than educating him."

"The educational philosophies of these two people are diametrically opposed, which resulted in Luo Bote, whether he caused trouble or achieved results, always unable to get feedback from both of them at the same time."

"The father scolded the mother for doting on the child too much, and the mother scolded the father for being too harsh on the child. The parents quarreled every day. When Luo Bote was a child, he had manifestations of childhood anxiety, but this pair of parents didn't notice this at all."

"By the time he was in high school, his bad personality was completely irreparable. On one hand, he followed his father's teachings, showing arrogance and vanity in front of people, bragging about things he couldn't do and things he didn't have."

"On the other hand, because of his mother's indulgence, he ignored the law and challenged authority. When he was in high school, he was punished for community service because he bullied and beat classmates."

"After he gained superpowers, all of this became even worse. According to the inquiries of S. H. I. E. L. D. agents to the members of the New Warriors team, even the people in the team couldn't stand him."

"And later, because of some things, Luo Bote received mental stimulation. His already unstable spirit completely collapsed. It can be foreseen that even if he walks out of this shadow, this will become his lifelong regret..."

"Clack," the chopsticks in Ma Te's hand fell. He blinked, constantly swallowing saliva, clearly becoming somewhat nervous. He said: "What I'm afraid of is this! Elektra and I don't get along in terms of education..."

"She comes from a diplomat's family. Since she was a child, she has been encouraged to go out and see the world, travel to various countries, and increase her vision..."

"But my father taught me since I was a child that I must first hone my skills, and after pursuing inner peace and stability, when I go out to deal with people, I won't hurt others inadvertently, and I can also have a certain ability to protect myself."

"This is a question of cause and effect." Shiler analyzed: "Is it that increasing knowledge helps personality stability, or is it that personality stability comes first, and then go out to increase knowledge?"

Ma Te immediately looked up at Shiler, with some hope in his eyes, seemingly hoping that Shiler could give him a standard answer. But Shiler shook his head and said: "These two paths have their own pros and cons, but in my view, this is not the most important. What most affects the personality growth during the teenage years is the atmosphere of family education."

"The problem has circled back to the starting point." Ma Te said somewhat helplessly: "Elektra and I couldn't even reach a consensus on whether to have children, let alone education?"

Finally, Shiler could only persuade as a friend: "Although you two haven't discussed a result for the time being, you must not be defeated by this sense of frustration, and even more so, don't feel that if you can't discuss a result, it's better not to discuss it..."

"In fact, the truth always becomes clearer the more it is debated. The more you two discuss, the more you will understand each other, and the more you will be able to understand each other. You have time to drink with me here, why not go find Elektra and talk again..."

Ma Te thought for a while and nodded: "That's true. I plan to tell Elektra the story of Luo Bote. If we can't guarantee a good family education atmosphere, then it's better not to have children. If the child encounters any mental blow and collapses in the future, the two of us will be even more collapsed."

The two chatted for a few hours. When Ma Te left, the night was already deep. Shiler cleaned up the leftovers on the table. He counted, and inadvertently, the two had finished a few more cans of beer.

Shiler discovered that he now somewhat liked the dizziness brought by beer, and his best side dish was not sashimi or any other food, but the surging emotions in the hearts of the people sitting opposite him and pouring out their hearts to him.

After cleaning up simply, Shiler didn't even plan to go to bed. He leaned on the sofa, intending to doze off until dawn.

But just as he was getting sleepy and about to fall asleep, he heard a few "bang, bang, bang" sounds. Shiler was startled awake, sat up from the sofa, and turned to look out the window.

At this time, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the New York sky was still very calm, except for a green figure that suddenly streaked across the horizon.

Shiler squinted his eyes hard. In a daze, he saw a person in a green tight suit stepping on a skateboard, sliding across the horizon at high speed, throwing orange bombs downward with his hands.

Shiler didn't hear any screams. He tried hard to judge the position opposite with his remaining sober consciousness and discovered that this little green man seemed to be throwing bombs into the Hudson River. Not a single person was bombed, but the fish were out of luck.

No, wait, that's not a little green man... Shiler thought, isn't this Green Goblin? What is Osborn doing? Not working hard to make money, why is he wearing a tight suit and going crazy again?

So Shiler rubbed his brow, tried to sober up, took out his phone, called Stark, and asked: "What are Osborn's recent movements? What is he doing?"

Stark was clearly busy with experiments again. He said somewhat puzzled: "What movements does Osborn have? You wait, I'll ask Jarvis..."

After a while, Stark replied: "Osborn Group has been busy grabbing shares of shuttle lines recently. Old Osborn and Uncle Obadiah have to negotiate three or four times a day. Yesterday, the two almost threw punches. Oh, right, you reminded me, I still have to prepare a mecha troop for Uncle Obadiah to support the scene..."

Shiler heard Stark's somewhat disdainful voice on the phone. He said: "Didn't occupy much patent technology, but didn't give an inch when fighting for shares. If I didn't want to avoid monopoly, would he even have a share?"

Shiler frowned, feeling that there was nothing unusual. Osborn should be very busy recently. In addition to aerial transport lines and the immortal factor industry, he had even dabbled in the generalization of lizard serum healing agents and the development of Mercury light-shielding technology.

Osborn Group had ushered in the most glorious period in history, and Old Osborn was a pure businessman. Even if someone put a knife to his neck, he wouldn't cause trouble at this time, because this was also smashing his own rice bowl.

Shiler looked carefully at the Green Goblin flying around in the sky, and then he discovered that this didn't look much like Old Osborn.

Although Old Osborn's age was younger than Obadiah's and half a generation different from Howard's, they were all people from the last era. Even if he maintained himself well through year-round fitness, this Green Goblin's strong physique and flexible posture, no matter how you looked at it, should be a young person.

Shiler speculated that this might be Harry Osborn, the little Green Goblin. But Old Osborn not only didn't die but was getting more and more spirited, able to fight three rounds with Obadiah a day, and didn't look like he was having an episode. How could the little Green Goblin come out?

Shiler shook his head, but didn't have the slightest intention to stop the Green Goblin, because he knew that Spider-Man would definitely go.

Sure enough, not long after, under the moonlight, the shiny luster of the spider silk was like a shooting star. A red and blue figure swung over, kicked the Green Goblin in the waist, and instantly, the two fell down at the same time, fighting inextricably on the bridge frame of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Feeling the sleepiness coming again, Shiler changed into his pajamas and returned to the bedroom upstairs to sleep.

That night, he seemed to have returned to the Spring Festival of his motherland. One moment it was bang, bang, bang, one moment it was crackle, one moment it was boom, boom, boom...

Until the next morning, when he saw Spider-Man like a drowned dog at the door, Shiler really had an urge to use the rolling shutter in his hand to smash a bump on his head. ===== CHAPTER 1037 =====
