Of course, it was impossible to decide just like that. No one wanted to stay, and everyone was clamoring to leave.
This is also related to the national conditions and atmosphere of the United States. Many people say that study here is not stressful, but in fact it is social interaction. Many people say that school here ends at 3 p.m., but no one says that after school, you have to join six clubs and two clubs. community activities.
These clubs and activities are indeed not very tiring, and can also exercise people's social skills, but if the starting point of doing these things is not to seek happiness, it must be painful.
It's one thing to socialize because of your personality and hobbies. It's another thing to socialize for the purpose of broadening your circle of contacts, squeezing into the upper class, and achieving class leaps.
After all, there is a standard answer for studying. If you do something wrong in social circles, you don't even know where you are wrong. If your parents are also ignorant, the possibility of advancement will be completely cut off.
The vast majority of American teenagers take a social path. After all, basically nothing is taught in school. If they want to be a real scientist, they must either spend money on elite education, or they can only rely on their understanding and talent like Peter.
Although most people cannot be called psychological geniuses, they have gained some insights from doing this since childhood. They know very well how to obtain social suppression. Again, the rule of social suppression is to never talk about things.
"This damn lunatic! He just doesn't like me!" Big Wave started yelling again. She gritted her teeth into her peaked cap in a standard Kardashian tone and said, "You are a typical sexist. Right? Do you know that my good figure is worth $200,000? That’s money you can’t earn in your lifetime!”
At this time, the black elder sister spoke: "Okay, girl, I didn't want to speak before because I think we should focus on business."
Penguin almost applauded her, but then he heard the black lady say:
"You shouldn't always talk about your breasts, butt, and good figure. This is serious body discrimination. Do you have to link your unattractive figure, which you have acquired, with money? Do you think you are? Who? That Kim Kardashian bitch?”
"Hey, don't talk about her like that." The tattooed man said, "I quite like her husband."
The black eldest sister was like a dynamite keg that was suddenly ignited. She began to spit out a series of black slang words to curse Kim Kardashian, and her spit almost sprayed into the Penguin's face.
But this was just the beginning. Penguin finally interrupted their quarrel and decided to let them all go out to inform others that he and Peter would stay to work. However, the short-haired girl raised objections again.
"Why are we blocking the door with our cars? We should be getting some weapons instead of hiding in this hut like we're afraid of them."
"It's easy for you to say, where can we get weapons?" The tattooed man raised his voice and said, "Are you going to bribe the police?"
"We should show those police officers how powerful they are." Da Lang said again: "I agree, we can't just hide here, we must go to the streets to defend our rights."
This was echoed by others, and Penguin stretched out his hands helplessly and said to them: "Wait, listen to me first, these security measures are only temporary, preparing us to fight for our own rights."
Hearing what he said, the short-haired girl mumbled a few words without saying a word, but Big Wave flipped her hair again and said: "Those two scrapped cars are of no use at all. When I came here, I saw a bus stop at the intersection. We
The bus driver should be asked to bring the bus over."
"Now our mayor is in danger. He fell to this point because he spoke for us. Are we the only ones who stand up to protect him? Why can't the bus driver stand up?"
"It makes sense." The short-haired girl nodded and said, "We are not trying to rob the car, we are just asking him to drive over and temporarily block the back door. This is to defend our collective rights. He has no right to refuse."
"But I saw the police over there." The tattooed man said hesitantly.
"The bus driver drove the bus voluntarily, can the police still take care of it?" Da Lang said again in a pinched tone: "This is our freedom, why should he take care of it?"
As they said that they were going to the bus stop to find the bus driver, Penguin quickly walked to the door and stopped them, saying: "It is not appropriate for us to conflict with the police now. After all, no one knows whether they are real police or sent by someone."
The killer is coming."
Several people immediately showed surprised expressions, and the short-haired girl took a step back in fear, as if they had not thought of this possibility at all.
"Let's call more people first." The Penguin still adhered to his plan and said: "I need more people to know what we are doing. Only by spreading our voices can we have greater hope.
.”
In fact, Penguin just saw that the few people who stayed behind were all weirdos. His rich experience from gang boss to black and white had given him a superb ability to recognize people. Now, except for him and Peter...
Except for Parker, all of them can only talk nonsense.
However, in this case, there can be no higher requirements. The so-called garbage is resources that have been misplaced. Since you can talk nonsense, call more people, and there will always be someone who can do the work.
Then Penguin discovered that he was completely wrong.
The first few people in the hut did call for more people, and in less than one afternoon, more than 50 people gathered on the street, and many more were on their way.
The Penguin hopes to eventually organize more than 200 people to protest in front of the Gotham Police Station. The police must withdraw the arrest warrant, followed by the issue of the city government and the state assembly. Of course, the upper-class companies that target him cannot
Let it go.
But the problem is that when there are more people, there are more conflicts. The previous quarrel between a few people in the cabin was a condensed version. After the number expanded to 50 people, they divided into several factions and began to attack each other crazily.
What's even more frightening is that the environmentalists led by the short-haired girl reprimanded the people of Hell's Kitchen for pouring dirty water into the river and even using chemical agents to wash clothes upstream. So they rushed over and beat those standing by the river.
people.
Transgender groups represented by Dabo believe that others in the group are discriminating against them and require them to apologize immediately, otherwise they will call a lawyer to pursue legal action.
The small group led by the tattooed man seemed to have a fight with another rock group over their different musical opinions, and some people had their front teeth knocked out.
The black eldest sister organized a black group and had a fierce verbal confrontation with the white people on the other side, which was about to develop into a physical confrontation.
The game boys mingled with Gonzalez's group of street boys. They were not aggressive at all, but they just planned to go to the nearby electronic machinery waste treatment plant to buy some equipment to play games.
"I'm warning you again, you damn transsexual sissies, why do you deny our musical taste?!"
"Say it again, I recorded that word just now, and I will let the lawyer sue you and bankrupt you!"
"You have no idea what we are doing now! We are fighting for our own legitimate rights and interests, you damn loser! This is the reason for your failure!"
"It's all quiet, it's all quiet, can't we talk?"
"Who wants to fight with this group..."
boom!!!
The moment the gunfire rang out, no one could react. The short-haired girl screamed for the first time and looked at the big wave tremblingly. At this time, there was a bloody hole in her chest.
Peter immediately pulled a few people around him and ran back. Everyone screamed and dispersed. When the crowd dispersed, Peter discovered that the cap's hand was holding a gun.
boom!!
Another shot hit an abandoned iron barrel nearby. The bullet reflected and hit a man's calf. He let out a scream and shouted to the person in front of him: "No, I've been shot. He's going to kill me."
If he kills me, he will kill me!!"
The peaked cap began to shoot indiscriminately. Peter immediately went around the back of the small house, picked up a piece of iron sheet, and threw it at the peaked cap's head with all his strength.
Because the angle was diagonally behind the peaked cap, right in the blind spot of his sight, he was not noticed. With a bang, the peaked cap was knocked down.
Gonzalez, Peter and his team rushed up to hold him down. The police came soon and Cap was put into the police car.
Then people learned that he was an accessory to a school shooting three days ago. Because the suspicion was very small, and he could only be a tip-off, he was only fined community service.
But now it seems that it is very likely that he framed it to someone else. He was the main culprit who actually fired the gun. He had no other reason for committing the crime, just to take revenge on society.
This group of monsters and monsters was finally calmed down, and they could finally be quiet and listen to the Penguin's speech.
Just when Penguin thought things were getting better and started conveying tasks to them step by step, he realized that this was not the end, but just the beginning.
The short-haired girl thinks that Penguin's idea of letting them go to the protest march is a good one, but they are determined not to allow the parade to use signs made of paper shells and plastics. Instead, they must use environmentally friendly cardboard made from secondary recycled pulp.
Otherwise, not only would they refuse to participate in the parade, they would also hold a new environmental march here to protest against the non-environmental behavior of the people in Hell's Kitchen.
Although Da Bo who was shot was sent to the hospital, other transgender groups demanded that since their group participated in the parade, they must display their flag. They proposed that the rainbow flag must be included in the parade.
element, otherwise not only would I not participate in the parade, but I would also protest against the people here’s discrimination against the transgender community.
The music group represented by the Tattooed Man believes that they must add rock elements to the parade, perhaps get some musical instruments and car stereos, and ask the streets where they parade to lift the silence law.
The black group led by the black eldest sister demanded that Penguin speak out for the black race, because although the victim Anderkin was not black, after he fell, he caused two car accidents at the intersection, including a bus that overturned.
with two black men.
Everyone asked to express their demands during the parade, and their demands must be the main priority. No matter how the Penguin persuaded them, their opening remarks were "Although you are a hero, but we...", followed by a series of fierce doctrines
Viewpoint output.
Penguin finally sees that heroes are not important to them, they themselves are important to them.
Then Penguin discovered something even scarier: he couldn't run away.
Now it is no longer a situation where everyone will just go home if he tells them to stop. The topic of Penguin, the heroic mayor, is getting louder and hotter. All the activists who come here want to take advantage of the popularity of this topic. They want Penguin to stand.
On their side, express their demands on their behalf.
Soon Penguin began to face hell's questions.
"Mr. Mayor, why don't you answer my question directly? Do you think Brooklyn's environmental issues are not worthy of attention?"
"I did not say……"
"To answer my question, Mr. Copot, why can you ignore that the trans community is being harmed? She was even shot, she was dying! And you don't do anything, you see how this society persecutes us.
!”
"I do not have either……"
"I must emphasize to you again, Mr. Mayor, during your term of office, the employment rate of black people has not improved. This shows that we are still facing severe discrimination problems. You have to give us an explanation."
"I'm not……"
"Why aren't niche groups of art lovers allowed to exist? The strange looks we face are the consequences of lack of education! We need living space! Don't you think so?!"
"I……"
Looking at the Penguin who was surrounded by the crowd, his face turned red but he couldn't say a word, Peter wanted to say that he was professionally trained and generally wouldn't laugh unless he couldn't help it.
Peter couldn't hold it back, and neither did Bruce. The two of them were as happy as two huskies playing in the snow.
