He regained consciousness only after choking on a mouthful of liquor, but it still felt unbelievable. You know, Norman Osborn was less than 50 years old this year, had nearly 100 billion in assets, and enjoyed the most complete medical team and security team. It was inevitable that people were shocked by his sudden death.
Peter couldn't think of any good words of comfort, so he could only pat Harry on the shoulder.
"My condolences."
Harry took a sip of his drink and shook his head.
"It's okay. After all, you know the relationship between him and me. I'm not sad, I just feel a little lost."
Hearing Harry's indifferent words, Peter opened his mouth but hesitated to speak. This was Harry's family affair and he had no right to criticize him, but he felt a little distant from Harry in his heart.
"Peter, this is not the reason I came to see you this time." Harry put down his wine glass and stared at Peter. Peter could clearly see the heat, desire and madness in his eyes.
"What is that?"
"Peter, our Osborne family has a congenital genetic defect that has been passed down from generation to generation, retroviral proliferation. My father asked me to come to you before he left."
"You must have a way to cure me, right, right?"
"Please Peter, I don't want to die. I'm still young."
After telling the truth, Harry became more and more agitated, and finally hugged Peter and burst into tears.
Spider-Man was confused now, but his mind was still thinking about what Harry had just said. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and remembered the genetically modified grafting technology that his boss had given him some time ago.
He patted Harry's back excitedly and said loudly:
"Harry, I have a solution, but I'm not sure if it can cure your illness."
After hearing what Peter said, Harry came to his senses and grabbed Peter's shoulders tightly with both hands. He looked so miserable, like a person who had fallen into hell and suddenly saw a ray of light.
"Really? Don't lie to me."
Looking at Harry's expectant eyes, Peter nodded firmly.
"It's absolutely true. Although I don't know much about your illness, if you use that technology, your chances of recovery are very high."
"but..."

"But what? If you need money, I'll give it to you. I'll give you any amount."
Faced with Peter's hesitation, Harry felt very uncomfortable and anxiously asked Peter to make conditions.
"That's not the case, Harry. How could I threaten you with your life?"
"My boss gave me a technology a few days ago. I'm studying and researching it, but it will take some time before I can deliver the results."
Peter saw that Harry had misunderstood him and hurried to explain.
But Harry, who was already overwhelmed by fear, could not wait any longer. After he learned about his family's genetic disease, he felt that his body was rotting every moment. He did not want to feel this creepy feeling for even a moment.
"Peter, give me this technology, and you can name your price."
In Harry's mind, Peter is just a smart student. By the time he develops the finished product, Harry would have been dead. So he wants to get this technology that can save his life, and then hire a large number of researchers to develop it and solve his genetic defect as quickly as possible.
But what greeted him was Peter's rejection without hesitation.
"No, Harry, this technology belongs to the company. I can't give it to you. It's already bad enough to reveal it to you."
"I'll give you 10 million."
"no!"
"50 million."
"no!"
"One hundred million."
Harry gritted his teeth and said that one hundred million US dollars was all the assets he could take out now. After all, he had not yet taken over Osborn Industries in full.
"Absolutely not, Harry. Believe me, I will be able to develop a finished product in no time."
Peter still shook his head firmly. Skynet Technology treated him well and he could not let down this trust. Besides, he was not a fool. A company that could come up with this incredible technology of transgenic grafting would have unlimited achievements in the future. He had already boarded this giant ship that was about to set sail, so there was no need to ruin his future for some easy money in the future.
"Why?"
"Why?"
"Why didn't you help me, Peter? You obviously had a way to solve it, so why did you just let me die?"
Maybe it was because the last glimmer of hope in his heart was extinguished or maybe it was because he was drunk, Harry suddenly stood up, grabbed Peter's collar and yelled at him hysterically.
Peter was also frightened by his appearance. He pried his hands apart, picked up his backpack and ran out of the bar. Before leaving, he said to Harry:

Peter was also frightened by his appearance. He pried his hands apart, picked up his backpack and ran out of the bar. Before leaving, he said to Harry:
"Harry, calm down. You just need to wait for a while, trust me."
After saying that, he turned and left without hesitation, ending this unpleasant reunion between old friends.
"Peter Parker..." Harry said gritting his teeth as he watched Peter's receding back.
Then he smashed the glass in his hand. The flying glass fragments scratched Harry's cheek, and blood flowed down his skin into his mouth. Harry, who tasted the blood, suddenly laughed wildly.
"Since you won't give it to me, I'll take it myself. Don't blame me, Peter Parker."
At this moment, Harry's low voice was just like his father Norman Osborn, sinister and cold, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.
Peter, worried about his friend, called Uncle Ben and Aunt May, then returned to the company to continue his research, striving to develop a finished product as soon as possible to save his friend's life.
He was so intently looking at the gene sequence in the microscope that he didn't notice a brightly colored spider crawling down the silk thread from the ceiling, its destination being the back of Peter's neck.
This spider was newly hatched by Peter these past two days according to the technology provided by Skynet. It has integrated the genes of many kinds of spiders and has all the advantages of spiders: super jumping, super strength, self-healing, intuition, etc.
"Hiss, what the hell is that?"
Peter suddenly felt a pain on the back of his neck, as if an insect had bitten him. However, he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, being bitten by an insect was a very common thing in anyone's eyes. At most, he would just curse his bad luck.
However, Peter, who was concentrating on research and development, did not expect that there would be no insects in the laboratory that had been completely sterilized and there was almost no dust.
Slowly, Peter felt his body getting hotter and hotter, and gradually he could not even stand steadily, and his vision became blurred. Finally, when Peter realized that something was wrong and wanted to take out his phone to call Skynet for help, he could not bear the dizziness and fell to the ground and fainted.
