Marvel Administrative Officer

Chapter 216 The next mayor...

After the conversation, when Raymond left the office, Jack began to clean up his personal belongings.

There is no way, he has been dismissed by Mr. President as the director of the Sky Hammer Bureau, and it is shameful to continue to stay at the base of the watchtower.

Although everyone in the know knew that no one could replace Jack's position in the Sky Hammer Bureau, and the so-called dismissal was more like a formality, but the face project still had to be done.

When Jack packed his personal belongings, Elizabeth arrived...

Jack's dismissal document has been publicized in the Sky Hammer Bureau, and people who don't know the truth really think that the Sky Hammer Bureau has changed to "heavenly"!

And Elizabeth... is also one of the people who don't know the truth.

As soon as she entered the office, she bumped into Jack who was holding a cardboard box.

The latter is like a street boy who is about to be kicked out after being squeezed out of his potential by the company...

Elizabeth couldn't bear it anymore, she quickly hugged Jack.

How should I put it, at the beginning, Jack was a little embarrassed, after all, who likes to show his "down and down" side to his girlfriend!
But smelling the fragrance of Elizabeth's hair, Jack suddenly felt that such a misunderstanding was not bad.

After hugging for more than ten seconds, Elizabeth straightened up, looked directly into Jack's eyes, and said:

"I have submitted my resignation to Misty, I will go with you..."

Jack wanted to laugh...Jack held back.

Anyway, Tianhammer Bureau is like your own back garden, if you resign, you will resign!

……

Early the next morning, Jack woke up from the gentleness, gently removed the arm hanging on his chest, and then he tiptoed out of the bedroom.

In this life, Jack has come into contact with many outstanding people, and he has learned a lot from them. Among them, Jack has benefited the most... is his excellent ability to act.

No matter how good an idea is, if there is no action, it will always be a castle in the air.

So in the "busy schedule" last night, Jack still made an appointment with Norman.

Accompanied by Frank, Jack then came to the Osborne Building.

According to the news from Misty, during this period of time, Norman has almost taken the company as his home, and he wants to use his last afterglow to pave the way for his son.

In recent years, because of accepting Jack's suggestion, Osborne Group has focused on the biopharmaceutical industry. Although the company's size has shrunk, its financial report has returned to [-]% of its peak level.

As soon as Jack walked into the Osborne Building, he felt the life of the company.

Then, under the guidance of the blond secretary, Jack came to Norman's office...

When the latter saw Jack, he laughed and waved the secretary away.

Jack accidentally discovered the resentful look in the secretary's eyes when he left... Apparently, the boss Norman had something to tell his secretary.

But this is also normal. As far as Jack knows, Norman has never married after Harry's mother died, and it is not easy for him.

Norman is very happy about the arrival of Jack. He is quite a loner. In his opinion, Jack is one of his few friends.

"Jack, although you don't like money, I still have to report to my director the overall income of the Osborne Group last year..."

Jack smiled and waved his hands, signaling the excited Norman to continue.

"Last year, we cut down many lagging projects and concentrated our efforts on biopharmaceuticals. According to your shares, your net income last year should have reached 1.2 million US dollars..."

Probably noticing Jack's indifferent expression, Norman smiled and continued:

"Maybe this 1.2 million is not much... But just a few days ago, I won the renovation project of the New York power grid. This is a big cake. I guarantee that your income will be even higher this year!"

"Oh, maybe investing in the Osborne Group is the wisest decision I've made. However, as your friend, I care more about your body..."

Jack's words made the originally lively conversation go silent.

After about 2 minutes, Norman said with a wry smile:

"My illness has already begun to attack. Although I have received treatment, the doctor said that I only have half a year to live."

"How come so fast?"

Jack was surprised.

Norman explained: "My grandfather named the retrovirus for the genetic disease in our family. Wisdom, but you have to pay for what you gain, the smarter Osborn is, the shorter his lifespan... and I seem to have overdrawn my wisdom, which should not belong to me, so I have to pay more."

This was the first time Jack heard about the inside story of the Osborne family's genetic disease. Before that, he only knew that the Osborne family had a genetic disease.

Moreover, the characteristics of this retrovirus shocked Jack very much. He did not expect such a weird virus to exist in this world.

In this way, mediocrity is not necessarily a bad thing.

"You're still hiding it from Harry?"

Jack took the initiative to bring the topic to Harry. Now Norman is determined to die, which is not in Jack's interest.

Hearing his son's name, Norman was obviously touched,

"Jack, my friend, Harry is still too young, and Osborne needs your help again."

Jack said sincerely, "What do you need me to do?"

"Continue to purchase the shares of the Osborne Group in your name. After my death, the Osborne family will purchase these shares at twice the price."

"Why don't you buy it yourself?"

Jack expressed his doubts bluntly.

Norman said with a wry smile: "The equity relationship within the Osborne Group is complicated, and they are all staring at me. If I implement the acquisition plan, they will not only raise the price, but may even refuse the transaction... These people are rich Wolf, you won’t give up until you maximize your profits!”

Norman's thinking is correct. In the past year alone, the Osborne family has experienced two crises. If Jack hadn't intervened, the Osborne family might have lost control of the group.

Facing Norman's request, Jack pretended to hesitate for a while, until Norman couldn't help rubbing his pants, then he said slowly:
"Norman, in fact, this time, I also came to ask for your help.

After the massacre in the square, I assumed most of the responsibility. Just yesterday, I was dismissed from the position of director of the Tianhammer Bureau.

And my political partner Snyder also announced his withdrawal from the mayoral race..."

"What do you want me to do?" Norman interjected.

"I would like to invite you to participate in this New York mayoral election and become the mayor of New York."

Jack finally stated the purpose of his trip.

Norman wondered: "Since you are no longer the director of the Skyhammer Bureau, why don't you run for the election yourself... I know that your goal has always been in the political world."

"The timing is wrong... As for the timing, please forgive me for keeping it secret."

Norman forgives Jack's reservations, and everyone has secrets.

Then, without any thought, Norman replied directly:
"Jack, I can participate in the election, but with my body, I'm afraid I can't last too long..."

Norman's directness exceeded Jack's expectations. He thought it would take a lot of rhetoric and exchange of benefits to persuade the other party.

But now, Norman agreed to Jack's request without even asking Jack to make a corresponding promise.

"You're surprised?"

Looking at Jack, Norman smiled and continued:

"Do you remember what I told you once? Osborne never disappoints a friend."

Norman's sincerity moved Jack very much.

Hanging around in the political field, Jack learned to intrigue. I don't know when, he no longer trusts those so-called bigwigs.
But today's Norman taught Jack a solid lesson.

Not everyone can afford expensive trust.

Osborne will not let his friends down, and neither will Murdoch...

Originally, Jack didn't intend to take out the last hole card easily, but facing Norman's sincerity, he said in a deep voice:

"Norman, I need your blood."

"What do you want to do?" Norman asked puzzled.

"See if it can save your life."

Norman stood up immediately, went to the safe in the corner and took out a few tubes of blood, along with a bottle of wine.

After passing the blood to Jack casually, he filled the wine glass again,

"Jack, about 150 years have passed since the first generation of Osborne came to New York to establish the Osborne Group. Successive generations of Osborne have tried to change their own destiny, and I am the craziest of them all...in order to cure diseases , I almost lost the Osborne Group..."

Norman pushed the wine glass full of fine wine to Jack, and didn't continue talking, but his meaning was very clear...

Jack picked up his glass and laughed at himself.

Compared with Norman Osborn, Jack knows nothing about biological knowledge. According to common sense, if Norman can't solve the problem, Jack certainly can't solve it!

However, Jack is a time traveler.

Although he doesn't understand biological knowledge, he does know the way to save the Osborn family, and there are more than one!
The first is the super soldier serum... According to the development of the original plot, Norman finally chose this path.

However, he failed to solve the psychological problems after the serum injection, which led to the emergence of the big villain Green Goblin.

And then there's the spider serum...it's just that Norman doesn't have the key formula for the serum.

Even if Norman deduces the equation, he will probably still fail because he will be missing a crucial step...

Richard Parker is definitely not a simple scientist. After receiving the funds provided by the Osborne Group, he not only concealed the key equations, but also played a trick...

Spider serum has never been used for direct injection, its purpose of existence is to breed super spiders that contain Parker family genes.

The bred super spider is the key to the problem!
This is also why Norman is extremely intelligent, sitting on three super spiders, but still can't get the final result.

From this perspective, Richard Parker did not serve the Osborne Group sincerely from the very beginning, and his ultimate goal is to make himself "Spider-Man"!
The Osborne Group is nothing more than taking advantage of the research and development funds.

It's a pity that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. Richard died in an air crash, and his stupid son Peter Parker became the big winner.

But all of this is Jack's inference. Richard is dead, and no one can solve the mystery of the year.

In fact, Jack wants to solve the retrovirus of the Osborn family, as long as he uses the genes of the Osborn family to breed super spiders, and then let Norman Osborn be bitten, the latter will become a "Spiderman"!
Genetic diseases are also naturally cured.

But Jack didn't say all this directly, he planned to ask Tony to help calculate the possibility first.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Jack doesn't want to give his friends useless hopes.

After drinking, Jack and Norman talked about the mayoral election for a while, and then left.

Turning around, Jack came to Stark Tower again.

Strike while the iron is hot!
For some reason, Tony changed a laboratory, but he was still tossing the steel suit without doing business.

If Norman saw this scene, he would definitely be very envious.

After all, both of them are the chairman of a large group. One works hard day and night, while the other plays with machines. The gap between the two cannot be calculated.

Thinking of this, Jack unconsciously looked at Pepper Potts who was standing still on the other side of the laboratory. Perhaps there was only a small pepper difference between Tony and Norman.

"Hi Pepper, long time no see."

Jack greeted first.

Pepper replied politely: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Murdoch."

Jack looked at Pepper with a little surprise. The reply was very strange, not like Pepper before.

But Pepper was a little restless under Jack's gaze, and quickly left the laboratory.

"Something went wrong between you?" Jack was a little puzzled.

Tony put down the wrench in his hand, stood up and replied:

"we broke up."

Jack laughed, as if something like this had happened in the original plot, but it must have been temporary.

Tony can never live without Pepper.

"Okay, let's talk about your troubles... I heard that you were fired from the Skyhammer Bureau!" Tony said, wiping his hands.

"I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly."

Tony raised his eyebrows slightly, and mocked: "Mr. Jack Murdoch is a big shot..."

"Hey Tony, don't take your anger out on me, I'm not involved in anything between you and Pepper."

"Am I mad? I'm not... The breakup is a relief for me, playboy Tony Stark will be back in the headlines soon!
Forget it, why am I telling you this... What are you holding in your hand? "

Jack glanced at the Norman blood in his hand, and took advantage of the momentum and said:
"This is Norman Osborn's blood. Their family has a rare genetic disease. I think Peter's spider serum can cure this genetic disease..."

"So, this is another new topic?

Jack, do you know how many problems you have sent me?
That old man Hank Pym took over my lab, and you booked me a duel..."

Jack quickly interrupted Tony, who was constantly complaining, and comforted him:

"Those who can do more work, who makes you the smartest person in the world."

Tony lowered his head and laughed at himself: "The smartest person? It's a pity that the smartest person can't understand love. Pepper has become very strange. I don't know how to win her heart..."

Seeing that Tony changed the topic to love, Jack immediately dropped his blood and slipped away.

It's hard for an honest official to decide on housework, so let Tony solve these problems by himself!
For some reason, on the way back to Long Island, the phrase Tony said "Pepper has become very strange" always flashed in Jack's mind,
In fact, Jack felt the same way.

However, after returning to the Long Island Manor, Jack immediately threw these things out of his mind, and there was still a dainty beauty waiting for him at home.

　I finally adjusted the update time to morning!
　　Hope to keep it up!
