Chapter 122 They saw hope they shouldn't have seen
Atop an apartment building near Hell's Kitchen in Manhattan.

Three little kids who were not even ten years old stood on tiptoe and climbed on the concrete guardrail, with half of their heads exposed, looking at the street on the west side.

"Gwen, why did your father arrest them? There were children inside." Peter Parker's face was full of confusion.

"Idiot, is that what my dad wants to catch?" Gwen Stacy is a girl, and she is a little more mature than boys of her age.

"My dad was just following orders!"

"Peter, Gwen, let's go."

Ned Leeds, the fat boy on the far right, said anxiously, "I feel it's very dangerous. If we are discovered, we will be arrested."

"Don't be afraid!" Peter, who was fearless, comforted his best friend: "Uncle George is here, he will definitely not catch us."

Gwen, however, was not as blindly naive as him. She frowned and said, "I think Ned is right. There is danger here."

"But if I run now, I will definitely be discovered..." Gwen thought for a moment and came up with an idea: "Go into the apartment and find a room to hide first."

The three little kids happened to go to Manhattan to play today, and saw the scene of people from all sides surrounding Hell's Kitchen. They saw countless old, weak, women and children being shot and taken away, and their little hearts were greatly shocked.

Like Peter, the other two kids also didn't understand why children who were the same age as them or even younger than them were taken away and killed.

Unlike the crude Peter, the relatively precocious Gwen senses the danger.

Although her father, who had been promoted to chief of the Queens Police Department, was definitely in the New York police force, his influence might not be known in such a large-scale, multi-department operation.

There are many snoopers like the three little ones in the neighborhood near Hell's Kitchen. They curiously look at everything that is happening, take photos and videos and try to upload them to the Internet.

However, all social software and portal websites seemed to have increased their censorship efforts overnight. Any words such as "Hell's Kitchen", "Manhattan", "New York" and all photos and videos containing the logos of the departments involved in the operation were blocked.

People around immediately realized that this was a big event. The timid ones didn't dare to upload it anymore, but those who were not afraid of death started to spread it wantonly in the chat group. Although there were no pictures or truth, and only pronouns could be used when speaking, they still spread it with great pleasure.

There were even idiots who contacted the media hoping to get a good price, but what they got instead was the "iron fist of freedom."

What is happening in "Hell's Kitchen" has become a taboo in America, but people with great power still spread the full set of clear videos, and the information channels controlled by the Spear Bureau and the Shield Bureau began to publicize the tyranny of America.

However, the Western media uniformly refused to respond, leaving only an official statement that was meaningless.

In the end, except for the areas covered by the Spear and Bear Shield Bureaus, people in other areas still don't know the truth.

The importance of information channels is evident.

The three little ones hid in a storage room in the apartment until it was dark and they were hungry, then they heard the noise coming from the apartment again.

"The blockade has been lifted, let's go home!" Gwen always makes the decisions when the three little ones go out.

The three little kids mixed in with the crowd, quickly left the apartment, blended into the bustling Manhattan area, and took the tram back to Queens.

They didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they reached their own neighborhood.

"Don't tell other students about this!" Gwen reminded her friends before they separated. She stared at Peter and said sternly, "Peter, especially you. If you can't control your big mouth, we and Aunt May will be in trouble!"

Peter was so frightened that he quickly put his hand across his mouth, indicating that he would definitely close his mouth like a zipper.

The three little ones went home, Peter was scolded by Aunt May, and then they started to eat dinner.

At the dinner table, Peter kept stuffing food into his mouth.

"Eat slowly. If you knew you were hungry, you should have gone home earlier!" Although Aunt May scolded him, she kept picking up food for Peter.

"Woo woo woo...mmmm...mmmm..." "Don't talk while eating!" Aunt May patted Peter's shoulder.

"It's not that I want to eat more, I just can't help it!"

Poor Peter, it was so hard to bear!
On the other side, Gwen also returned home, but Chief George had not returned yet.

This was normal. Gwen, who was almost ten years old, had already learned to cook simple meals for herself. She rushed into the kitchen, put on an apron, opened the refrigerator, took out the ingredients and started cooking.

When George came back, his daughter had already prepared dinner for two.

Today's events left George exhausted. As the chief of the police station, he knew what the other Steve Rogers had done in "Hell's Kitchen" and understood why the bigwigs were making such a fuss.

But all of these are contrary to George's values.

George Stacy is a pure good man and a righteous director. Unlike those bureaucrats who are only interested in climbing up the social ladder, he cares about the life and death of ordinary people and has been practicing his simple sense of justice.

But this world cannot tolerate good people like him.

The colleague who was killed by Adam Smith outside the Wall Street Stock Exchange last year had his pension stopped. Since the "Red Swordsman" became a superhero, the New York Police Department naturally stopped paying pensions to his family.

The dead colleagues are dead, and the injured and disabled colleagues have an even worse fate. Not only does the police station no longer provide them with compensation, it even expels them.

After the "Battle of the White House", Adam Smith's whereabouts were unknown and he lost his superhero identity. George wanted to argue for the compensation that his colleague deserved.

But how can we possibly continue to pay the funds that have already been stopped?
This is so uncapitalist!

George was completely disappointed with the top police officers, so he began to desperately catch criminals. He relied on his inner strength to capture and kill many gangsters and thugs. With his previous qualifications and connections, he was successfully promoted to the chief of the Queens Police Station.

Yes, George plans to rise to the top and then change the things that he doesn't like.

But everything George saw in "Hell's Kitchen" today made him completely despair.

Even if he were to rise to the highest position in the NYPD, would he really be able to change these injustices?
The big guys up there might not tolerate the existence of people like him and Steve Rogers.

Improve and improve, the more you improve, the cooler it gets, cooler!

George was confused and he didn't know where his future lay.

"dad."

Gwen, who had been eating quietly, suddenly broke the dead silence at the table.

Although the little girl asked her friends not to tell anyone, she could not bear the doubt in her heart.

"Those people..." Gwen looked up, stared at George, and asked, "What did they do wrong?"

"You..." George was startled, then suddenly realized: "You went to Manhattan today?"

Gwen nodded.

George sighed and was silent for a long time, but finally told his daughter.

“They see hope that they shouldn’t see.”

 Hehehe, brothers should have discovered it.

  I'm going to attack the little spider and the little female spider~
