Chapter 219 The So-Called Perfect Ending
Late at night, Colt stood alone on the roof.
"If you want to come out and talk, just come out." He said to the shadow beside him.
After a while of silence, Scarlet Spider slowly came out.
"Doctor Octopus..." He started, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Colt waving his hand.
Scarlet Spider wanted to say something, but saw that Colt just motioned for him to follow him.
Pushing open the door, Scarlet Spider followed Colt into a room.
"You!" Everyone in the room and Scarlet Spider shouted in surprise.
"Tell yourself," Colt said, and he turned and walked out of the room and closed the door.
In the room, Peter and Scarlet Spider looked at each other awkwardly.
……
Colt went downstairs and he saw Valeria sitting in the living room.
Tilting his head, he planned to go directly to his room.
"This is your plan?" Valeria didn't give him this chance.
"I just think they all have a right to know the truth," Colter said.
Valeria stopped talking, and Colt sighed and closed the door.
……
"You said, you are actually a clone?" Peter looked at the scarlet spider in disbelief.
Scarlet Spider had already taken off his mask, revealing the same face as Peter inside.
He nodded and said, "Yes, although I don't want to admit it, I'm probably a clone created by Dr. Octopus, your clone."
Peter frowned, seemingly in thought.
"I've looked for evidence..." Scarlet Spider said, "but... nothing..."
"I didn't expect that." Peter replied, his mood became very weird, he was a little happy that his past was not a lie, but he didn't know how to face his other self.
"This is my mistake, and I will fix everything." Scarlet Spider replied, "I just hope to tell you the truth of the matter, and you are not the one who made the mistake."
"I'm sorry, I'm a bit messed up now, I may need a little time." Peter said, rubbing his eyebrows, "It's a bit too strange to accept the existence of another self, no matter who we are clones."
"I understand." Scarlet Spider replied, "Now, I should go. I will find a way to tell you about Dr. Octopus' plan."
"Yeah." Peter nodded, "Be careful, Octavius is not easy to deceive."
He looked at the back of Scarlet Spider who was about to leave, thought for a while, and added: "Scarlet Spider, that's a very good code name."
The scarlet spider paused for a moment with its right hand stretched towards the doorknob, then he turned his head: "Maybe..."
Walking out of the laboratory, Scarlet Spider also saw Valeria.
"Is everything clear?" Valeria asked.
"Hmm." Scarlet Spider nodded.
"You know what Spider-Man stands for." Valeria replied, "I hope you can stick to it."
Scarlet Spider was a little puzzled by Valeria's words, but he just subconsciously thought that it was Valeria's distrust of him originally obeying Dr. Octopus.
"Maybe I'm a clone, but I'm also Spider-Man." Scarlet Spider replied firmly.
Valeria waved her hand, not interested in continuing to chat with the other party.
Valeria let out a long sigh after seeing the scarlet spider leaving from the roof.
"You look upset." Franklin floated out. "If it's that hole in the living room, I can make it go away right away."
"You know I'm not thinking about that." Valeria shook her head as she sat down on a chair on the roof.
"You have too many things to worry about. If you don't talk, I don't know what you're thinking." Franklin pulled out a reclining chair, sat on it, and rested his chin on the back of the chair.
Seeing that Valeria was still not interested in talking, Franklin pursed his lips and said again: "So you're still worried about Colt?"
Valeria acquiesced.
"Are you worried that he's going astray?" Franklin shrugged. "To be honest, isn't it your style to keep things a secret from others, not to share with others, and just mind your own plans? Whether it's you or Dad, most When I work with you guys, it always feels like charades, which I don’t think is ok, or that you’re starting to get a little emotional because you’re not the smartest guy in the room anymore?”
"Are you an idiot?" Valeria snapped at him, "I don't care about these things, what I'm really worried about is himself!"
"Do you think he did things too extreme? Hiding the truth to hurt Peter?" Franklin thought for a while, "But isn't he leading Scarlet Spider to explain the truth now? Although I don't understand why he didn't say it before, but, This kind of false injury, in fact, after the truth is revealed, it is impossible to have any effect at all, right?"
"You don't understand anything at all!" Valeria's face was gloomy, "I'm talking about worrying about him, not about what he did or anything else. Temporary concealment and deception are just a means. There may be extremes or some other problem, but that's not the most important thing!"
Franklin blinked inexplicably: "What's the important thing?"
……
Colt was in his room, watching from a distance through the window the figure of the scarlet spider pulling its silk to leave under the darkness of night.
"I'm sorry," he said softly.
Then, he leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes.
"But, at the end of the day, everyone has a happy ending."
……
What is a good story?
This is an interesting question.
People instinctively dislike tragedies, and those broken endings may have a stronger impact, but this does not prevent people from disliking them. People like those happy endings, and people want to see those beautiful things.
Just like those princess fairy tales, the best ending is that everyone lives happily together forever.
But even in those fairy tales with the best endings, isn't there a lot of pain and frustration before the ending?The big bad wolf ate grandma, and Snow White ate the poisoned apple...
However, will all this make people think that these stories are tragic tragedies?
Of course not, what people care about is only the ending.
If everyone gets a perfect ending, then this story is a beautiful one.
And now, I'm going to make it a fairytale ending.
Colt closed his eyes.
At the end of the day, the best for all comes out.
I'm sorry...the exam is coming again...I'm trying to keep updating this time...
