Marvel's Dark Knight

Chapter 236 Private Party (Please subscribe)

No one expected that Stark would say such a sentence.

You must know how difficult it is to implement the death penalty in the United States.

Those on death row can even write to the president asking for their cases to be reopened.

The retrial naturally means that they can live peacefully in prison during this retrial period.

Even though it's not as easy as the outside world, America's prisons are.

Supermax prisons housing supercriminals occasionally have problems, let alone ordinary prisons for serious offenders.

This kind of thing is so normal.

The Mighty God of Thunder didn't have any objections. As a female God of Thunder, she had seen too many things.

Rising Stars and Marvel Girls are still young people, and they are new members. Naturally, they have no say in this aspect.

They are just watching how the situation develops on the field.

To be honest, Nova was quite interested in what Stark brought up.

Even the Nova Corps has a death penalty system.

Those who commit heinous crimes should be turned directly into cold corpses in the universe.

On the other side, the second-generation Captain America, Sam, had a different opinion: "But if we directly interfere in this kind of issue, will the American government think that we are interfering in their politics?"

Sam is quite aware of the American government's fear of superheroes like them.

If they interfere with New York's death penalty system now, then the United States will be worried about whether superheroes will sit directly in the Oval Office one day.

"Yes, and it will definitely happen." Of course Stark knew how difficult this matter was.

"Then you still do such a thing?" Sam asked.

While Stark can be quite out of touch at times, there are a lot of things that he's at least... well, out of touch with.

But this thing was really too sudden.

"Don't worry, I won't let superheroes take sides. What we need to do is to rationally use the moves those guys have used." Stark smiled. At this time, he didn't look like that superhero, but he looked very much like him. A profit-seeking businessman.

Obviously now he has a set of quite reasonable plans.

He just needs some people to help him.

Bruce, who had finished handling the Wayne Group work in the evening and wanted to return to Wayne Manor, had already received a phone call that surprised him.

Tony Stark actually called him.

In Bruce's speculation, Stark should not make this call so soon, but should wait a few weeks before making the call.

Bruce's words to Stark were not without purpose. He knew very well that according to Stark's character, he would definitely promote this matter.

Whether it is as a superhero or as a super rich man who is often compared with others, even if it is just compared with the virtual characters in comics, he has to fight for a winner.

Apparently now the Iron Man is ready to implement his own plan.

"Hello, Stark. If you're calling me at this time, you probably don't have any business cooperation to discuss." Bruce answered the phone and spoke to Stark on the other end of the phone with a smile.

"No, no, no, there are really no good projects for business cooperation, but I do have another project for you to cooperate with. I organized a private party tonight, with only three or two people coming, to discuss what I want to do. I want to talk to you about the project." Stark stated his purpose quite directly.

Bruce pretended to be confused and asked, "Why don't you tell me what the theme of this time is?"

"To be honest, I'm not afraid of your laughing when I say it. I want to bring back the death penalty system in New York." Stark's voice was quite serious, and he also said the word that Bruce was thinking about.

Sure enough, the reason why this guy came to find him was to reintroduce the death penalty system in New York. As a city with more than 700 heroes on the entire east coast, New York City couldn't handle those super criminals who jumped repeatedly.

Not only because those super criminals can easily escape from prison, but more importantly because the death penalty in New York has long been in a semi-deserted state, and no one would even think of using it to impose punishment.

And Stark started taking the lead.

Apparently one of the reasons he invited Bruce was because of Wayne Group's aloof status.

Whether it is Stark Industries or Parker Industries, there is no way to compare with Wayne in terms of status.

Wayne is like the uncrowned emperor of the business world, always sitting on the throne and never being shaken by anyone.

"I won't laugh at you, Stark. I think this matter is quite meaningful." Bruce said this to Stark.

Then Stark's somewhat excited voice could be heard: "Then it's settled, I'll wait for you at my house at 8:30 tonight."

"Don't worry, I will go there on an empty stomach and try to drink as much of your wine cellar as possible." Bruce said to Stark half-jokingly.

"Then I think you may have to prepare two bellies. The wine in my wine cellar is not so easy to drink up." Stark followed Bruce's joke and took a bite, "The rest of the matter , I think it would be better for us to talk face to face, after all, this matter is likely to be a major project that changes the current chaotic situation in New York."

"Okay, see you tonight." Bruce smiled and hung up the phone, and then he saw Alfred beside him.

"Master Bruce, did you go to Stark's house tonight? Do you not need to prepare your dinner?" Alfred spoke to Bruce calmly, "Do you need me to inform Miss Jessica? Miss Jessica will go with you?"

Bruce thought for a moment and finally shook his head.

Although Stark has not yet revealed who he has invited, Bruce can use his toes to figure out who Stark can invite.

<divclass="contentadv">And none of the guys who can be invited by Vestak are now married and have a business, and can bring their female companions there.

If he brought his female companion there, Jessica could only sit aside boredly. It would be better to let her eat and drink well in Wayne Manor. If she was really bored, she could go out and become Spider-Woman.

"Okay, I understand, Master Bruce. I will take good care of Miss Jessica." To tell the truth, Alfred had already opened the back door of the vehicle.

Bruce glanced at Alfred and then got into the car. He always felt that after he brought Jessica back, Alfred's attention had been on Jessica a lot.

But this can be considered a good thing.

8 pm.

Bruce arrived at the door of Stark's mansion early and looked at Stark who was waiting for him at the door.

Bruce smiled: "I didn't expect that I would have such a big reputation to let you wait for me at the door."

"After all, what we are going to talk about now is too important. I am always very serious about important things." Stark said this to Bruce quite seriously, but the next moment he The power had been broken, and the originally calm and even serious face immediately turned into a playboy's playful smile.

"Hahaha, okay, another person has arrived." Stark patted Bruce on the shoulder and said something that surprised Bruce.

"I thought I arrived half an hour early, which was already very early, but there was someone who was earlier than me."

"I couldn't help it. He was too close to my house at the time, so it would be much faster to come here." Stark didn't think there was any problem, because the other invited guy also had his own hidden identity.

It just so happened that they could have a good talk about this matter.

Bruce took a deep look at Stark, and then withdrew his gaze. Just relying on Stark's current performance, he was already able to determine who was sitting inside.

Besides Peter Parker, the now-famous chairman of Parker Industries, who else could have arrived here before him?

After all, Peter Parker's identity is also Spider-Man.

Being able to arrive at Stark's mansion early did not surprise Bruce.

Sure enough, when Stark walked in with Bruce, he already saw Peter Parker sitting beside him.

"I really didn't expect that the chairman of Parker Industries would come so early." Bruce walked up to Peter Parker with a smile and stretched out his hand to Peter Parker.

Peter Parker was not as surprised as Bruce. During the time when he came in advance, Stark had already explained to him who the other person who would come here was.

"I'm just passing by, and it's a bit close to here. But Mr. Wayne, you came very early." Peter Parker said with a gentle smile, and I have to say that this neighbor, a New York citizen, does give people quite a good impression.

"You guys chat first, I'm going to get two bottles of wine from the wine cellar. Someone told me on the phone that they wanted to drink all my wine cellar." Stark smiled and turned around and left, heading towards his wine cellar. went.

At this time, Peter Parker set his sights on Bruce.

"But I never thought that Mr. Wayne would be willing to come here. You must know that what we are talking about now is likely to be criticized as useless by those so-called human rights defenders." Peter Parker is very aware of the death penalty in New York. Although it has not been abolished, this is the reason why it has not been fully implemented.

Don’t we face the fact that those human rights defenders have been marching, building momentum, and even calling for the abolition of the death penalty in New York City?

Although New York City has not directly abolished the death penalty, no criminals have been sentenced to death in recent years.

It can be said that the current death penalty in New York City is just a piece of legislation that is looked upon but not used.

"I am quite aware of the difficulty of this matter, but when those people are calling for the human rights of death row prisoners, have they ever thought about the people who have been violated by death row prisoners?"

Bruce said to Peter Parker with a smile, and at this time Stark came back again, holding two bottles of fine brandy in his hand.

"There is a weapon called a boomerang. If you throw it out, it will always come back to your own hands. The human rights slogan now spoken by human rights defenders is that their boomerang will always come back directly to themselves." Bruce smiled and said to Peter Parker, "Of course we can't rule out those saints who are really willing to let the condemned prisoners escape death."

"It seems that you guys talked a lot while I went down to get the wine." Stark poured himself a glass of wine and sat on the other side.

"The question I can help you with is, do you have a plan now? For something like this, I think those guys will definitely come to the superhero organization and let them prove that not killing is the best. "Bruce had already looked at Stark when he spoke. Everyone knows about Stark's identity as Iron Man.

It's quite normal for Bruce to look at Stark when he says this.

"I called together several former Avengers members and explained this matter. They will notify more superheroes." Stark put down his wine glass when he said this, and he did not answer casually. Instead, he responded to Bruce quite seriously.

"They will help us when the time comes."

"In this case, the biggest resistance has disappeared, then this plan can naturally proceed smoothly." Bruce nodded as if he was evaluating the feasibility of this plan. Bruce turned to ask Peter now. Parker, "I wonder what Mr. Parker wants to say?"

"I only hope that all laws should strictly comply with the situation, and it is best not to have any problems." Peter Parker did not look at Bruce when he said this, but looked at Stark emphatically. emphasized.

Stark naturally knew what Peter Parker meant, and he nodded.

"Don't worry, I will carefully check everything on Friday and do my best to avoid any unjust, false or wrongful convictions." Stark emphasized.

"Then I have no problem." Peter Parker then shook his head. He indeed had no problem. This meeting seemed to have been hosted by Stark and Bruce from the beginning to the present, and he just came to express his position.

Although Peter Parker still has some unfavorable views on such things, it is inevitable and must be implemented now that Stark and Wayne have joined forces.

Stark smiled and poured the brandy into the glasses in front of Bruce and the others.

"I don't like to open the champagne in advance. After everything is settled, we will go back to guard again. I will prepare you the best champagne in the world." Stark raised his glass and spoke to Bruce and Peter Parker.

"Then we'll see." Bruce also raised his glass.

Peter Parker is no exception.

The crystal clear wine is a little intoxicating under the light.
