Chapter 16 Rhino Man
"Has Aleksei found the target?"
"No." Aleksei crashed another instrument again. "It shouldn't be here. I'm going to check somewhere else."
"Okay, steady now, don't collapse the building. Remember, we only have one target." Adrian, hidden in the crowd, kept his eyes on a man in a suit and leather shoes, who was anxiously communicating with the Police.
"Harry Osborn!" Aleksei said, word by word.
"That's right. If anyone gets in our way, eliminate them all. Just keep Harry Osborn alive." After confirming the target, Adrian hung up the Phone.
"Roar!" Aleksei roared, reactivated his Armor, and strode towards the next area. Along the way, no matter what obstacles, they were all crushed to pieces by his charge.
Not long after Aleksei left, in a corner, there was a wall painted with art paintings. A gap appeared in the wall, and an eye secretly observed the situation from inside.
"He seems to have left."
"Thank you for saving us." Peter looked at the handsome boy in the green jacket in front of him.
"You're welcome. That Rhino Monster would never have imagined there's a Secret Door in this wall." The boy closed the Secret Door and looked at Peter and Mary Jane triumphantly.
"May I ask how you knew there was a Secret Door here?" Peter looked curiously at the triumphant boy in front of him. "Ordinary people shouldn't know this kind of secret."
"That's because I'm the person that Rhino is looking for. This Exhibition Area is managed by my dad's company." The boy pointed at himself.
"You're Harry Osborn? The young master of Osborn Group?" Mary Jane looked at the boy in front of her in surprise.
Mary Jane and Peter's shocked eyes made Harry's nose almost reach the sky.
"Then do you know the identity of that Rhino Monster? And why is he looking for you?"
"Don't know." Facing Mary Jane's question, Harry didn't seem to care. He casually took out his Mobile phone and prepared to contact his father.
"Probably to kidnap me and threaten my dad for Ransom. I've been used to it since I was little, but this is the first time I've encountered such a big scene."
"FK! No Signal!" Harry grabbed his Mobile phone angrily, wanting to throw it to the Ground, but in the end, because he was afraid of attracting Rhino Man, he sighed and put down his Mobile phone.
"It's you guys, I'm really sorry for dragging you into this." Harry fiddled with his Mobile phone with his head down, speaking in a very low voice. If it weren't for the lack of noise here, Peter and Mary Jane might not have been able to hear him.
"It's not your fault." Mary Jane shook her head. "No one wants to go through these things. You're just a victim. I hate this kind of victim-blaming the most."
"Me too, no one should blame you for this." Peter echoed.
"This is really new." Harry scratched his head, looking a little surprised. "You're the first pair who don't hate me after being involved in a kidnapping."
"Let's reintroduce ourselves, Harry Osborn." Harry extended his right Finger.
"Peter Parker."
"Mary Jane Watson."
Peter and Mary Jane shook hands with Harry respectively.
"Do your Mobile phones have Signal?" Harry asked, retracting his Finger.
"No."
"Mine doesn't work either. I guess that Rhino Man blocked the Signal here. It seems we can only expect the Police to find us."
Mary Jane and Peter took out their Mobile phones to check, and sure enough, none of them had Signal.
"No, those Police Officers are definitely unreliable. Their little Guns that can amuse streetwalkers aren't even enough to scratch that Rhino Monster." Harry shook his head repeatedly when he heard Peter's words.
Mary Jane frowned when she heard Harry's dirty joke, while Peter pretended not to hear it.
"Instead of relying on them, we might as well escape by ourselves." Harry looked full of confidence. "I know the Staff Passage of this Exhibition Hall, it's not far from here. We can escape from there silently."
"Isn't it too dangerous?" Peter didn't quite agree with Harry's suggestion. He didn't want Mary Jane to take risks. "You saw that guy's speed, we can't outrun him at all. If he catches up to us, it's a dead end."
"Come on, Peter, don't be so cowardly." Harry looked at Peter helplessly. "As long as we are careful, it's fine. Besides, his target is me. I'm not even afraid, what are you afraid of?"
"I just…"
"Peter is not cowardly!"
Peter was about to explain, but Mary Jane next to him took a step ahead of him, glaring at Harry.
"We are very grateful to you for saving us, but please take back what you just said."
"Whatever." Harry shrugged, showing an indifferent look. "If you want to stay here and wait for the Police, then stay. I'm going to escape by myself."
"Of course, after I escape, I will tell the Police that you are here." Harry slowly opened the Secret Door and said without turning his head.
"If I still remember."
After speaking, he closed the Secret Door and left.
The secret room fell into silence with Harry's departure. Peter looked at Mary Jane apologetically.
"I'm so sorry, Mary Jane." Peter sat on the Ground, curled up his Body and lowered his head. "If it weren't for me, you could have gone out with him."
Mary Jane looked at the dejected Peter, silently sat down beside him and comforted him.
"It's okay, Peter, we are Friend." Mary Jane gently leaned on Peter's shoulder.
"And I saw it, when Harry made that suggestion, you secretly looked at me, right?" Mary Jane twirled her hair with her Finger.
"Are you worried about me?"
"I just…" Peter opened his mouth for a long time, and finally could only lower his head and accept his fate.
"Yes, I am worried about you. I don't want you to get involved in that kind of danger. I'm sorry, I might be meddling too much."
Mary Jane looked at the boy who was lowering his head and feeling depressed, and only found him cute. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a scream.
"Did you hear that?"
"It seems to be…" Peter frowned and confidently confirmed, "It seems to be Harry calling for help."
"Help!"
Harry now wished he had more Legs. Who would have thought that he would encounter that Rhino Monster not far after sneaking out.
As soon as that Monster saw him, it reached out to grab him. Fortunately, he was so scared that his Legs went weak and he sat on the Ground, and then crawled under its crotch to escape.
"Stop right there!" Aleksei shouted angrily. If he wasn't afraid that his Armor would kill Harry, he wouldn't have let Harry run so far.
However, you can escape the first day of the lunar month, but not the fifteenth. Soon, the panicked Harry was tripped by the debris on the Ground and fell to the Ground.
"Stay away from me." Harry screamed, throwing the debris on the Ground towards Rhino Man, while moving himself to escape.
"Got you, Little Bug." Rhino Man ignored the thrown debris and directly reached out to grab Harry.
"Bang!"
Just as Rhino Man was about to grab Harry, a bucket of Paint smashed onto his back.
The pungent smell angered Aleksei. He let go of Harry and turned his head to look, and found a short and thin boy wearing Glasses, trembling, holding an Iron Pipe and looking at him.
"Run, Harry!" Peter shouted.
"Peter…" Harry, blocked by Rhino Man, could only hear the voice, but even though the voice was hoarse due to excessive fear, Harry could still tell that it was the voice of Peter whom he had just looked down upon.
"Crush you! Little Bug!" Rhino Man was very irritable due to the injected Serum, and couldn't stand Peter's provocation at all. He directly activated his Armor and charged towards Peter.
"No! Peter!" Mary Jane, who had just arrived, watched the Rhino Man crashing into Peter in despair.
Peter was even so frightened that he forgot to close his eyes, just staring blankly at the Rhino Man rushing towards him.
"What is that?" Facing imminent death, Peter felt everything slow down. He seemed to see something red extending from beside him in his peripheral vision.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, Peter stared blankly at the Rhino Horn, which was only a dozen centimeters away from him.
"Hey! Little Cow, want to have a Bullfighting Superstar?" Peter heard a voice from above his head, looked up, and saw a red giant protecting him in front of him.
"I'm the Bullfighting Superstar, you know why?" Yang Le, transformed into Fourarms, was full of heroic spirit. "Because I'm so popular!"
