Chapter 12 Peter gave Dr. Connors a lesson
Dr. Connors thought Peter was angry.
Gwen thought Peter was sad.
But only Toby knew that Peter was actually just a little embarrassed and nervous.
Unlike the original story, Peter only discovers his father's briefcase and its hidden contents when he grows up.
With the arrival of Toby, the butterfly, many things in this universe have changed as he flaps his wings.
This includes the time when Peter received his father's belongings.
With Toby, a peer, by his side, Peter was not as lonely as in the original story, and his personality became much stronger and more optimistic.
Therefore, Ben did not hide Richard's belongings for fear of causing Peter grief.
Instead, after some time, he handed the briefcase that Richard had left behind to Peter.
So Peter had long ago learned from the photos hidden in the briefcase that his father and Dr. Connors were actually good colleagues and friends.
That's why Peter developed an interest in Dr. Connors from a young age, admired Dr. Connors' knowledge of cross-species genetics, and regarded him as his idol.
According to Toby, Peter's special desire to attend the Q&A session with Dr. Connors stemmed not only from wanting to meet his idol, but also from wanting to personally ask Dr. Connors about his father's past work.
Sure enough, Peter looked up, his eyes not filled with anger, but rather with embarrassment as he looked at Dr. Connors.
"No, Dr. Connors, I'm the one who should apologize. This was originally a project that you and my father were jointly responsible for, but because of my father, you've been stuck in this project. I should apologize to you on behalf of my father!"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Connors stared blankly at Peter: "You're not angry with me?"
Peter scratched his head: "You didn't do anything wrong, why should I blame you? My father's death was an accident, it has nothing to do with you."
Dr. Connors suddenly felt as if his heart had been stabbed, and he looked at Peter speechlessly.
I never imagined that after a lifetime of pride, being hailed as an authority on interspecies genetics, my mentality would be inferior to that of my two children...
Richard, you're not only outstanding yourself, you also have an outstanding son and an outstanding nephew...
Seeing Dr. Connors deep in thought, Peter suddenly pointed to the blackboard on the wall and asked:
"Dr. Connors, may I borrow it for a moment?"
"Go ahead." Although he didn't know what Peter wanted to do, Dr. Connors, who felt guilty towards Peter at the moment, immediately nodded.
Peter was given permission and immediately picked up a pen and began writing on the blackboard.
Dr. Connors stood behind Peter, looking at the algorithm Peter had quickly written on the blackboard and finding it increasingly familiar.
He quickly recognized it; wasn't this the algorithm formula for lizard cell regeneration serum?
That formula that he had tried for ten years but could never get the right result from.
But now, in less than a minute, Peter wrote the complete algorithm on the blackboard, surpassing his ten years of effort!
"This...this is..."
Dr. Connors was so excited that his voice trembled slightly.
thump—
As Peter finished his final stroke, he turned and nodded to Dr. Connors:
"That's right, this is the final algorithm for the lizard regeneration serum. My father had actually completed the algorithm, but he hadn't had a chance to give it to you before the accident..."
Dr. Connors slowly walked to the blackboard, looking at the correct algorithm that had troubled him for ten years now laid out before him. His eyes were filled with complex emotions as he murmured:
"Richard, it's been a whole ten years, and I still haven't expected you to teach me a lesson. You're really something..."
After sighing, a spark of hope rekindled in Dr. Connors' eyes, and he turned to Gwen and said:
"Gwen, could you please tell the interns that I have an urgent research project to attend to, so the Q&A session has to be postponed? Could you please take them to the next stage?"
Gwen knew that the problem that had troubled her teacher for ten years was now solved, and Dr. Connors would no longer be in the mood to teach interns, so she readily agreed.
Then, Dr. Connors looked at Peter and smiled, inviting him, "Peter, would you be interested in taking your father's place and working with me on this significant research?"
Peter pointed to himself, both surprised and delighted: "Me? Really?"
Dr. Connors said leisurely, "Of course, I'll arrange an assistant position for you and pay you a salary."
Upon hearing this, Peter's neck turned red with excitement, and he couldn't wait to agree immediately.
But before agreeing, he turned to Toby and asked, "Toby, is it okay?"
He hadn't forgotten what Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei had told him: he wasn't allowed to think about part-time jobs and had to focus on his studies.
But if Toby has no objections, and Toby is on his side, he believes he can definitely persuade the elderly couple.
Toby said calmly, "It's your own business, you can make your own decisions. Just remember, I will always be on your side."
Peter didn't grasp the deeper meaning in Toby's words, assuming that Toby had agreed. Therefore, he and Dr. Connors eagerly threw themselves into the research on the regenerative serum.
Toby shook his head slightly, deciding not to disturb them any longer, and walked out of the laboratory with Gwen.
Although his plan to take Peter to find the Super Spider had changed, it wasn't a big problem.
He was planning to take a few more super spiders with him anyway, and he'd just put one on Peter and have it bite him.
The result is the same.
Therefore, after leaving the lab, Toby used the excuse of going to the restroom to leave the lab and did not go with Gwen to the intern team, but left alone.
After leaving, Toby made his way to the super spider breeding room with practiced ease.
Now that he's ready to get the Super Spider, Toby naturally wouldn't be completely unprepared.
Yesterday, he commissioned and obtained the structural blueprints of the Osborne Building, as well as the genetic code of the Super Spider breeding chamber.
After avoiding several surveillance locations that might arouse suspicion, Toby quickly arrived at Osborn Corporation's Super Spider Breeding Room.
After unlocking the door with the genetic code he had obtained beforehand, Toby walked in confidently.
According to the information Kingpin provided, there were no cameras in the incubation room, so he didn't need to worry about being filmed at all.
Inside the breeding room, the super spiders that Peter's father bred had their own genetic locks added to them, which meant that Osborn Corporation could only utilize their super-tough super spider silk, but could not utilize the other abilities of the super spiders.
