American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 77 Helping Others
Fighting one against two, Xiao Xian easily defeated Chevrolet and her girlfriend, and went straight to the court with Aunt Mei the next morning.

Peter was wearing heavy shackles, his eyes downcast, sometimes looking towards the judge's desk, sometimes scanning the faces of the jury. Looking at their disgusted eyes, Peter knew that he would definitely be sentenced to a long sentence, but Peter had already expected this.

"Next is the testimony that Ms. Kawakami Tomie gave to the police, but because of something urgent, Ms. Kawakami Tomie did not come to the scene."

Hearing this, Peter lowered his head completely. Did Tomie hate him to the point that she didn't even want to see him?
"Next, please call on the witness, Miss Mary Jane."

Looking up at the witness stand in surprise, Peter opened his mouth, which eventually turned into a self-deprecating smile. His dog-licking behavior over the years seemed so ridiculous.

"Peter Parker, who came from a poor family, gave me a lot of gifts in order to pursue me. Of course, I didn't know at the time that he got them through robbery." Mary Jane testified that Peter Parker did have income from unknown sources.

Peter was too lazy to listen any further. He closed his eyes and waited quietly for the trial to begin. That was until he heard another familiar name.
"Next, please call the witness, Ms. May Parker, to testify."

"Your Honor, I testify that Peter once drugged me and lured Xiao Xian to his home in order to pursue Ms. Kawakami Tomie, in order to record a video of Xiao Xian and me, in order to sow discord between Xiao Xian and Tomie."

"Aunt Mei, why? I, I regard you as my mother."

Peter Parker looked at Aunt May in the witness box in disbelief. Peter could understand Tomie's testimony against Peter, after all, Peter's love was completely unrequited. Peter could also accept Mary Jane's testimony against Peter, and just regarded his youth as a waste.

But Aunt May's testimony against Peter almost made Peter collapse. This was a betrayal from the person closest to him, and the destruction of the last home in his heart. At this moment, Peter was completely desperate.

Losing his parents when he was a child became a lifelong pain for Peter. Fortunately, Aunt May and Uncle Ben healed him, raised him, and gave him a complete family.

But now, after Uncle Ben died because of Peter, Aunt May abandoned and backstabbed Peter, which really made Peter feel all alone.

The world is so big, but there is no place to call home.

"You treat me as your mother, why did you drug me?" Aunt Mei felt a little sad when she saw Peter's broken face, but when she thought of the harm Peter had done to Xiao Xian, she scolded him.
"It would be fine if you only hurt me, but what's even worse is that you actually hurt Uncle Xiao Xian! I cannot forgive anyone who hurts Xiao Xian, so I decided to stand up and identify you."

"Uncle Xiao Xian?" Peter could hardly believe what he heard. Was this still the Aunt Mei he knew?

"But he already has Tomie? Aunt Mei, you can't compete with her, and Xiao Xian is a playboy! Don't be fooled by him!"

"So what? He has never lied to me. He told me clearly from the beginning that I was willing. Even if I clean his house, cook for him, and wash his clothes every day, but in the end I will most likely end up alone, I am willing."

Aunt Mei answered loudly.

Noticing the strange looks others gave him, Xiao Xian quickly said, "I paid her to be a cleaner, with room and board included, don't get me wrong."

"Oh~ What a scumbag, you don't have any manly responsibility." Harry Osborn, who came to accompany Mary Jane to testify, sneered and said with disdain, not noticing the envious look that Mary Jane gave Aunt May.

When could she move into Xiao Xian's house like Aunt May? She would be happy to clean the toilet and wash shoes, let alone wash clothes and cook. "nt" Seeing Harry roll his eyes, Xiao Xian decided to take the White Queen and Mary Jane to the Osborns' house tonight, to play in the bedroom.

"You..." How could Harry bear being scolded like that? He was about to scold back immediately and wanted to stand up and fight, but was immediately stopped by Mary Jane.

"Have you forgotten your promise to me?" Mary Jane looked at Harry and said.

"But he just scolded me, and you heard it!" Harry said angrily. He had never suffered such injustice before.

"You were the one who scolded him first. I heard it all. I haven't even said that you broke the agreement yet. Do you not care about the agreement with me? Or do you not have me in your heart? You don't love me anymore, right?" Mary Jane immediately used the "Do you not love me?" method and her tone became unfriendly.

"Of course I love you, honey." Seeing that his girlfriend was angry, Harry immediately apologized and glared at Xiao Xian who was looking at him with disdain. He never looked at Xiao Xian again, thinking that out of sight, out of mind.

"Xiao Xian."

Hearing Aunt Mei's words, Peter gritted his teeth and squeezed out Xiao Xian's name. Although it was Peter who poached Xiao Xian first and tried to kill him by piercing his heart with a poisoned knife and blowing up his head, wasn't it too much for Xiao Xian to poach her and let Aunt Mei testify and identify herself?
Can't he learn to forgive? Why is he so stingy?

Peter paid no attention to the tearful accusations from the families of the deceased police officers, or the verbal abuse from the police officers who were beaten by Peter and left with lifelong disabilities. Those people were indeed very uncomfortable and in pain.

But Peter didn't feel any pain. His mind was full of thoughts about Tomie and Aunt Mei. Occasionally he would feel sad for his lost youth Mary Jane. He had no time to care about these people's feelings.

It was not until he was sent back to prison, with his hands and feet bound by restraints, and looking at the bright moon outside the window, that Peter realized that according to the judge's decision, Peter would never be able to get out of prison in this life, let alone the next.

When Peter thought that Xiao Xian might be playing fun games with Fu Jiang at this moment, while Aunt Mei was lonely and heartbroken, he was so angry that he wanted to eat Xiao Xian's flesh and sleep on his skin. He wanted to step on Xiao Xian's ashes and hug Fu Jiang happily, and apologize to Aunt Mei and ask her to forgive him.

All of this obviously has a prerequisite, that is, Peter can leave the prison, but at this moment he is locked in a restraint and special drugs are injected into his body. Even if Peter uses all his strength, he cannot break free.

Peter was locked here, and every now and then he was taken away for dissection and human experiments in the name of medical treatment. Meanwhile, Xiao Xian was outside having a good time with Aunt Mei and Tomie. Peter was really fed up with this kind of life!
But unless God blesses him, Peter feels that he will never be able to escape in this life. However, considering what he has done, Peter feels that it is unlikely that God will come to save him, but the devil may be a possibility.

"That's right. Demons always like to help others." An old man with a cane suddenly appeared in the corner of the cell. In his hand, there was a red gem as big as plastic. He looked at Peter Parker who was locked up tightly and said,

“Even if you pray every day, God will not appear when you are in trouble. On the contrary, even if you never pray to the devil, the devil will always appear to help you at the critical moment, and the price you need to pay is just an insignificant soul - or even a loan that needs to be paid after death.”

"Who are you?" Peter said vigilantly as he looked at the old man who suddenly appeared in the prison. This was one of the highest-level prisons, and it would not be easy even for a superhero to get in.

Moreover, this guy talked about demon souls and such, and it was obvious at first glance that he was not a good person.

"I have many names. You can call me Mephisto." The old man took out a scroll contract and smiled at Peter.
