In the dark night, the cars passing by on the roadside made a unique roar and flashed past with their headlights. As the lights flashed, Peter's figure was revealed in an instant.
Also exposed was a figure downstairs from Gwen's house. It was Gwen who went to Wayne Group today.
Peter frowned. Usually Gwen would sit at the desk early in the morning, but this was the first time he had seen her come back so late in the past few months.
The black mesh eyes on Peter Spider-Man's hood slightly reflected Gwen's figure. He jumped up and quietly appeared at the corner of the streetlight, standing quietly in Gwen's sight.
Peter walked towards the alley on one side.
Gwen was slightly stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then turned to another alley.
This alley is rarely visited by people, but the federal government has rarely thoughtfully installed lights on both sides. Even if it is a long time ago, it can still emit a warm yellow light covered with a layer of sand.
At this moment, two guests suddenly appeared in the usually deserted alley.
In a speechless environment.
Gwen saw Spider-Man in front of her stop and turn to face her.
But until this moment, Gwen moved her lips, but couldn't make a sound. She could only let the light quietly vent her emotions, driving her body, mind, and perception to welcome the arrangement of fate.
So in her eyes, Spider-Man reached out and took off his hood, tearing away the last trace of luck in Gwen's heart, or confirming her vision, the familiar chin gradually appeared, and then his eyes with dark circles,
And that golden hair that cannot be ignored...just like her hair.
The two looked at each other and were silent for a long time. Peter quickly got rid of this feeling that seemed to be trapped in a swamp. He did not forget the true purpose of his coming.
Clenching his teeth, Peter felt that nothing in the world was more difficult than speaking. Even blocking a train in the flesh would be ten times a hundred times easier than his current situation. He gritted his teeth and said: "Gwen, I..."
"I am Spider-Man." Peter could only hold back this sentence in the end. This was his most instinctive words and the emotion he most wanted to express these days.
He is Spider-Man!
He is a hero!
Gwen was stunned, and she tentatively walked towards Peter: "Peter, you..."
Peter interrupted her question, and the veins on his forehead stood out. He seemed to remember something, and suddenly shouted: "Yes, I like you, I, Peter, like you, I like you Gwen, but there is nothing we can do about it.
It's impossible, I'm Spider-Man, I can't drag you down..."
His voice became smaller and smaller, and his steps gradually retreated. The distance between the two did not get closer as Gwen moved forward, but became further and further away.
Peter turned around, his body paused, and he was about to turn his head again, but when his head was turned halfway, it suddenly stopped like a stuck gear. He stretched out his arms stiffly, sprayed out spider silk, and disappeared in an instant.
In the night.
Gwen did not catch up with Peter. Even though she ran as hard as she could, Peter was ten times a hundred times faster than her and disappeared into the air far away from the road.
In the darkness, Peter staggered on the rooftop. He kept following Gwen's footsteps until Gwen's search was fruitless. After returning home, he raised his head.
He seemed to have lost something, leaning against the wall of the rooftop. His face was covered with a crumpled Spider-Man hood, and he was already sobbing.
"Peter...Spider-Man...Peter...Spider-Man..." Gwen muttered to herself in despair.
Seeing her like this, Mr. and Mrs. George looked at each other in confusion, their eyes showing concern for Gwen.
Although Gwen had told her that she was going to Wayne Group to join Bruce's research team today, she never expected that such a situation would happen.
As soon as I came back, I felt like I had lost my soul, and I whispered to myself in a low voice, not knowing what I was confirming.
Just as George was about to speak out, his wife across the street stopped him with her eyes. They were just two children, and they were determined not to make any mistakes.
It wasn't until Gwen's mood stabilized a little and she stopped talking that Mrs. Stacy persuaded her: "Gwen, you don't have to be too sad. After all, the young master of the Wayne Group is not a good person, and you have only known each other for a short time..."<
/p>
Bruce?
Gwen's eyes were confused, what does this have to do with Bruce?
Isn't Bruce being pestered by Jessica?
Gwen quickly interrupted: "Mother, not Bruce."
"It's not Bruce? Who is that?" George suddenly said. He didn't believe that his daughter's heart was so easily seduced by a boy.
Gwen realized that she had let something slip, and quickly shook her head: "No..."
In order to prevent her parents from worrying and overthinking, Gwen had an idea: "I just met a robber on the way back, but a man wearing a red tights saved me. I was a little shocked just now."
"So that's it..." Mrs. Stacy nodded, and she gave George a meaningful look.
George analyzed: "The boy in the red tights, you should be talking about the recently popular Spider-Man...this group of lawless guys."
George looked grim and dared to point the finger at his family. George had to take the initiative to let the rats in Queens know that he did not get to this position through bribery, but because of his real achievements and qualifications.
p>
It just so happens that a young man in the bureau recently, James Gordon, is very motivated. He sneers at these dark and violent things and wants to devote himself to the anti-black cause all day long. Previously, George was worried about breaking the balance in Queens, but he didn't support Gordon much.
But he is vaguely more optimistic about Reyes, who has a conservative attitude.
Now it seems that this group of people in Queens also want to imitate the group of guys in downtown Gotham City and start to "protest and parade" unscrupulously. So George doesn't have the courage to fight back, and he doesn't mind killing these guys.
spirit.
Gwen saw that the atmosphere was not right and did not want to talk to her parents. After telling her that she was slightly ill, she went back to her room.
Mrs. Stacey’s worried eyes never moved away from Gwen.
"George, tell me, Gwen, is she in love?"
"Hard to say." George shook his head.
"But the truth is definitely not as simple as what Gwen said. She may have encountered a robber, or she may have been rescued by Spider-Man, but there must be something else hidden from us..."
Stacey said cautiously: "I want to say, could it be that spider..."
"Impossible." George raised his hand. In his opinion, people who rely on force to act tyrannically, whether they are gangsters on the street or heroes who claim to be righteous, are all the same, because no one can be sure that these so-called
The hero will always represent the so-called justice, which means that the hero is also an unstable factor.
As long as he did not join the police or join the federation, George would not recognize the other party. Even if it was Bruce, although George recognized him as a person, he did not approve of him being his daughter's boyfriend.
However, it is not a good thing for people from the Federation to be too strong...
For example, James Rhodes, the Iron Patriot who was decentralized from the city center... not only reached out to the police station, but also openly extorted Bullseye's bounty. Even in the face of his direct descendant Reyes,
He didn't give him any face at all, and he seemed to treat him as the police chief of Queens as nothing.
"The two of us have been observing Gwen more recently. If we find her, I think we can sit down and communicate." Stacey said.
