Marvel: The Superman Survival Guide

Chapter 72 Unconventional Meeting

To be honest, Link doesn't think much of Richard Parker; the guy has character flaws.

He joined the Osborne Corporation with his friend Dr. Kurt Connors to lead interspecies gene transplantation projects, especially since Kurt Connors was there for his own amputated arm regeneration.

The Osborne Group provided the money and equipment, while Kurt Connors provided the labor, and there was also investment from the military.

Richard Parker succeeded in his research, but he used his own genes to complete the research, which was unusable by others. Then he ran away with the results.

They screwed over the Osborn Corporation, screwed over Dr. Kurt Connors, and ultimately the Osborn Corporation lost the military's research and development funding.

Norman Osborn was at his wit's end. On one hand, he had a genetic disease, and on the other hand, the board of directors had removed him from the board. With no other options, he used the incomplete enhancement serum himself.

Thus, the Green Goblin was born.

Peter Parker inherited his father's legacy, became Spider-Man, and eventually defeated the Green Goblin and later Harry Osborn.

The Parker family triumphed over the Osborn family; no matter how you look at it, Richard Parker was completely wrong.

His reasoning was that the Osborn Group wanted to sell its research results, which sounded unreliable. The purchasing power of the US military alone would be enough for the Osborn Group to make a fortune, especially in terms of stock price.

How much can I sell it for secretly?

This is a long-term business, and the Osborn Group doesn't even know he's successfully developed it, so how can he sell it?

This makes absolutely no sense. Richard Parker's identity is not simple, and it's even stranger that he's taking technical documents abroad.

The Osborn Group was unaware of his success; he was intercepted on the plane, and the information had been leaked.

Upon closer examination, it becomes clear that Richard Parker is not a good person. Link took his technical data and left a video for his son, which is considered a good deed; otherwise, he would have smashed everything.

……

The two monitored him for a day, and after Norman Osborn left the corporation's building, they followed him all the way to Osborn Estate.

Afterwards, he observed from the outside, looking for various security systems. Link used X-ray vision to observe all the lines and already had a complete security plan in mind.

The two then left, had a meal outside, and then Link drove Frank home before returning to his own apartment.

When Jessica saw Link return, she went over and helped him take off his coat, asking, "What have you been up to?"

"Busy making money!" Link then revealed his thoughts, including his desire to control the Osborn Group and his reasons.

After listening, Jessica asked, puzzled, "Why do you want to do that?"

"Aren't you an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Link said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't all that safe either. I feel there's something wrong with it. Like the intelligence I've gathered before, which involves huge sums of money."

"However, the destination of these funds is unclear, and things are not so quiet inside S.H.I.E.L.D."

"Furthermore, you know our special status, so we must have sufficient identity and social standing, and in this country, money buys everything."

"Especially large corporations. After I take over the Osborn Group, I will develop some things. You know I have a very strong mind."

Jessica asked with some concern, "Will you get into trouble later?"

"What's trouble for me?" Link smiled. "At worst, it's just revealing my strength. Then it won't be us who's afraid, it'll be others."

"After all, everyone has read the Superman comics. If a real Superman appeared, would they be afraid?"

Jessica laughed and said, "That would be very interesting."

……

The following afternoon, Link and Frank returned to the Osborn Group building to wait for Norman Osborn to come out; this guy was not one to leave work on time.

Around 8 p.m., Norman Osborne came out again, this time with only one driver.

They drove him back to Osborne Estate. The car pulled up, and Link and Frank parked nearby before getting out and walking over.

The two observed from the outside and found that there weren't many security guards, but the security system inside was the most advanced available.

Link climbed over into the blind spot of the surveillance camera, with Frank following closely behind.

Frank followed Link's footsteps, their pace varying from fast to slow. Link was comparing the moving surveillance cameras, including some hidden ones.

Thus, they arrived directly at the side door, which was the passage used by the servants and was not locked at all.

Wearing gloves, I opened the door and went inside, then wandered around to the study.

Norman Osborne was sitting in the kitchen. He hadn't had dinner yet, and the cook was preparing a simple meal for him.

He wasn't a picky person because he had too little time. Norman Osborn was now paving the way for his son after Richard Parker's escape.

But his son also has a genetic disease, which has become a huge burden on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe. His own son cannot understand him, and he does not want to put any pressure on his son.

But what if you collapse yourself?

He's under so much pressure right now!

After quickly finishing his meal, he headed towards his study, pushed open the door, closed it behind him, and then turned on the light.

"..." Norman Osborn saw two people, one of whom he recognized.

Link is no longer an unknown figure. Although the Jessica Charitable Foundation holds Stark Industries stock, how could Norman Osborn not look into it?

Stark Industries and their Osborne Group are competitors, for example, in military contracts, as well as in the pharmaceutical and energy sectors.

"Mr. Osborn, don't panic!" Link said with a smile.

"Mr. Lin?" Norman Osborn had indeed seen his share of storms and remained relatively calm.

"That's right, I'm here to discuss cooperation," Link said.

"Why not go to the company to discuss it?" Norman Osborn asked.

"It's simple, because the premise of cooperation is that I can treat your family's hereditary disease." Link then took out a piece of paper. "These are several test subjects who had the same problem as you, but they have already been cured."

"You can investigate first, and finally, here is my phone number."

Link placed a piece of paper on the desk, and Norman Osborn's pupils contracted. This sentence had the greatest impact on him: Could it really be a cure?

He quickly picked it up and looked at it; it was full of names and the hospitals where people had sought treatment.

Norman Osborn looked up at Link with a complicated expression. Could the disease he had been so concerned about really be cured?
