The physical examination report showed that Peter Parker was in good health. The only problem was that it was completely inconsistent with the super strength he showed.
Batman has privately conducted secret physical examinations on many people with superpowers, such as Superman. In fact, most of the instruments used for physical examinations on humans cannot show Superman's physical condition, even if they are specially customized by Batman
When the instrument is pressed on Superman, the beep beep goes out of the display range, or it explodes on the spot.
But the amazing thing about Spider-Man's physical data is that whether it is bone strength, muscle density or cell activity, they are all completely within the scope of normal people, or in the healthiest average, and there is no deficiency in any of them.
But if you look at this kind of data, it is impossible for Spider-Man to have that kind of endurance and strength. In other words, Spider-Man's superpowers do not come from his specialized body structure, but from another non-physical level.
variation on.
"You have discovered the problem, right?" Peter tilted his head slightly, raised his hands to his sides, then shrugged and said: "The principle of my spider's mutation is still a mystery so far. Spiders in other universes before
Xia told me that this may come from the spider totem, but now that I have changed to another universe, the ability is still there, which means that the mutation still occurs in my body."
"But it doesn't matter where it comes from, as long as it can still be used." Peter casually sat on the chair next to him, his expression and posture looking very relaxed.
Batman frowned and turned the corners of his mouth downwards, obviously not agreeing with Spider-Man. If it were in the past, other Robins would have guessed what he was thinking when they saw his expression.
.
Then they will further explain their point of view, trying to convince Batman, or let Batman convince themselves as usual.
But Spider-Man didn't stay on this topic for even a second. He sat on a chair, crossed his arms between his legs, looked at Batman with wide eyes and said: "The inspection is over, let's go next."
Where’s the adventure? There must be a lot of crime in this city that needs to be fought, right?”
"Your uniform..."
Peter then realized that the reason why Batman brought up his uniform was not to take off his mask. He looked down at his uniform, pulled the fabric of his uniform on his chest, and looked up at Batman with some confusion and said: "
What happened to my uniform?"
"I think you need a new set."
"But this is new. Mr. Stark just made it last week. I haven't even worn it for three days."
"Whose assistant are you?"
"Of course it's yours now, but these are indeed new clothes, not damaged or old at all."
"But it doesn't fit my assistant."
"But this is such a waste."
"I'm rich too."
Peter's eyes widened. He quickly caught up with Batman, then stretched out his arms to stop him and said: "This has nothing to do with whether you have money or not. We can't waste things like this. Let's buy new things or
It is made to be used until it is exhausted. If it is broken or worn out, we should repair it as much as possible. If it cannot be repaired, replace it with a new one. Isn't this common sense?"
"But it doesn't fit..."
"It fits perfectly, doesn't impede my movement at all, and has many useful features."
"But the conditions you will encounter in this city may be different from those in the past, so you need equipment adapted to local conditions."
"It's no different." Peter stared at Batman unblinkingly and said, "Didn't I wear this uniform before and defeated a robber who robbed a bank? This shows that it is fully capable of fighting criminals.
, why on earth do you always want me to change it?"
Batman also asked himself this question in his heart.
Looking at Batman's slightly thoughtful eyes, Peter suddenly said with enlightenment: "Oh, I understand, it's actually because this dress doesn't suit your aesthetic, right? You don't like the red and blue color scheme?"
Batman felt like he was being stabbed.
But Peter said in a complaining tone: "Then just say it. If you had told me you thought it was ugly, wouldn't I have changed it?"
"You don't like black, what would you do if I gave you a black uniform?"
"It's okay to wear it." Peter shrugged and said, "You've already done it, so it's a waste if I don't wear it. Besides, I'm your assistant. If I'm wearing a color you don't like and dangling in front of you,
You will probably feel very annoyed, and you may not be able to concentrate on dealing with the enemy. If you think you will be in a better mood if I wear black, there is nothing that cannot be compromised."
Batman stared at Peter for a long time, and then said: "You can wear red and blue, but it's best not to print any patterns on your body other than bats."
"Why is this?" Peter caught up with Batman who was walking forward again, and asked persistently: "Is it because many people in this city have arachnophobia? Or is it because you just like bats and want to make everyone
All their clothes have bats printed on them?”
"Because darkness may permeate every special symbol." Batman said in a low and hoarse tone: "Making them evil and crazy, they will penetrate into your skin and contaminate your heart."
Peter had to speed up his pace and ran in front of Batman, turned around and walked backwards, looking into Batman's eyes and said: "Brother, can you explain it more clearly? Okay, let me guess,
Maybe there’s something wrong with the city’s rainwater, which will mutate my uniform and make me go crazy?”
Batman stopped. He slowly narrowed his eyes, showing his signature expression of suspicion. Then he looked at Peter with suspicion. Peter shrugged and said, "It's not hard to guess. It's never been difficult to guess."
After arriving in this city, my spider sense has been activating a weak alarm, but I didn't find any danger."
"Ever since I defeated the bank robber, I have discovered that this alarm will weaken indoors, and will almost completely disappear when it comes to your base. Then the only thing that continues outdoors is the rain. Am I right?
?”
"Not entirely right." Batman didn't praise, he just affirmed in Batman's way. He didn't expect the other party to understand at all, and usually, the other party really didn't understand and asked him what he was wrong about.
But Peter showed a bright smile and said: "That means that part of what I said is indeed right. My intuition is not bad, right?"
Batman said nothing and walked forward silently, and then Peter kept chasing behind him trying to persuade him.
"If you are worried about my uniform mutating, or about the rainwater contaminating it, then I can wear casual clothes without the uniform. Just prepare a mask for me to cover my face."
"You will be contaminated too."
"I won't."
Batman paused. He had not heard such a positive tone for many years. Even Superman, after getting to know Batman in depth, would not refute his words so firmly.
Peter still looked at Batman with that innocent look and said: "I will not be contaminated, I am a superhero."
Batman's Adam's apple moved violently, but he didn't even know what he was excited about, and then he took a deep breath and said.
"You can't go out without wearing equipment, that's the rule."
To Batman's surprise again, Peter did not retort, but just nodded and said: "Okay, you are the boss, you have the final say."
Batman took Peter to the equipment manufacturing workshop, which is located on the ground floor of the Batcave. It is a huge space that connects the laboratory manufacturing room, the machine tool room and the product warehouse. There is a dazzling array of equipment inside, some of which have long shapes.
It seems to be able to destroy star systems.
As soon as he entered the laboratory, Peter immediately became quiet. He quickly walked to the experimental table and moved a chair, then sat down by the door of the laboratory and watched Batman's back as he walked in.
Batman stopped halfway, looked back at Peter and said, "Aren't you coming in?"
"I am here waiting for you."
"You have scientific research capabilities."
"Yes I have."
"Then you don't..."
Batman couldn't continue mid-sentence. He didn't need anyone's help, he didn't need people to watch him, and he didn't need a chatterbox in front of him. So why did he care if Peter came into the laboratory with him?
?
But he just felt that this was not in line with his assumptions about Peter. Shouldn't Spider-Man happily follow him into the laboratory and fully demonstrate his scientific research talent?
"Mr. Stark said that his laboratory is the soil where his inspiration sprouts, and the weeds that grow in my head are not needed on this soil. Of course, I know he is joking. He does this to anyone.
"But I know he doesn't like anyone disturbing him while he's doing experiments, so I won't go in."
Batman's lips moved, but he still said: "It's up to you."
About half an hour later, Batman brought a uniform. Ninety percent of the fabric of the uniform was non-reflective black, but there were decorative stripes on the collar, arms and waist, slightly red and blue.
Interweaving reflections.
"Wow." Peter exclaimed, took the uniform from Batman's hand, unfolded the uniform on himself and gestured, then smiled and said to Batman: "I've thought about getting one for myself before.
It's a pure black uniform, but I'm worried that people will misunderstand me as a robber. Now I finally have a chance to try it. It must be very handsome. I'll change into it."
After Peter entered the room to change clothes, Batman was still savoring the words he just said. Soon Peter came out after changing clothes, as if he had grown new limbs, constantly making various movements to adapt to the new uniform.
The new uniform still retains the spider pattern, but it has changed from the original very obvious pattern to a dark pattern that is almost invisible to the naked eye. It is also located on the chest, and the decorative lines on the original uniform have become less obvious.
But this gives Spider-Man an alternative temperament. Different from Batman's deep and serious temperament when he wears black, Spider-Man forcibly wears this carbon black to give him a handsome and neat sense of future technology.
"Do I look a bit like an evil robot?" Spider-Man turned around to look at his new uniform. Just as Batman was about to speak, Spider-Man immediately added: "It's not that it doesn't look good, it's just that I think it suits me better.
The image of the neighbor doesn’t quite fit. Would a superhero with this image really not be mistaken for a criminal? People wouldn’t shoot me, right?”
"If you didn't dress like this, they would shoot you."
"ah?"
Batman sighed slightly in his heart, then turned around and walked out the door and said: "Come with me, we only have the last step left."
