Chapter 460: The Journey
"Why don't you fly?"
Mawson was speechless for a moment.
I knew that Peter would be pulling him in a car, and he wouldn't have acted with him anyway.
"Crossing the entire U.S. from the East to the West is a rare experience for anyone. I've always wanted to drive across the United States once, but I didn't have the chance, so this time we went to San Francisco together......"
Peter looked ahead, serious.
Mo Sen looked blank, believe in you to have a ghost.
"Do you know how far it is from New York to San Francisco, it's almost 4,000 kilometers in a straight line in the air, and if you drive it, it will increase a lot."
Peter also felt a little embarrassed by the reason he said, but he was always bad at telling Mawson the truth.
With Mawson's ability to cause trouble, it is quite possible to turn the world upside down in San Francisco, and Peter will definitely participate in the battle at that time.
What Peter couldn't accept was that when he met Mawson in Jinhe's underground bank, this guy didn't make any disguise, and directly showed his true face.
Peter felt that his decision was very wise, if he and Mawson took a plane in New York, once there was a battle, Mawson's identity would be exposed in minutes, as long as someone carefully investigated, his true identity could be picked up.
He has indeed offended many people in New York City over the years, he doesn't care, but Aunt May and Gwen will definitely be affected.
The most important thing is that once Spider-Man's true identity is revealed, he may no longer be able to enjoy the ordinary life of ordinary people in the future.
For Peter, the ordinary life of an ordinary person and the high-rise superhero, these two identities are equally important.
One allows him to freely bear evil and promote good under the mask, while the other can also take off all his defenses when he is tired and scarred.
He didn't want to ruin everything now because of Mawson.
Although he thought so, it was not easy to speak directly to Mawson, so he thought of some messy reasons.
Mawson could see that Peter was insincere, but he didn't care too much, and on the whole, the little spider's character and personality were still trustworthy. Since someone is willing to drive, then he should relax and take a special road trip.
I made up my mind that he wouldn't touch the wheel for the whole trip.
Turn on the car radio and tune the channel to San Francisco.
"Urgent news reported that at 10 o'clock last night, an accident occurred on NASA's space station, and the returning spacecraft was close to low-earth orbit. The spacecraft suddenly caught fire, causing spontaneous combustion after entering the atmosphere, and then exploding after disintegration. ”
"NASA is now collecting the wreckage of the spacecraft, and the exact cause of the fire is still under investigation."
"This happened." Peter was driving while listening to the news on the radio, and then took the opportunity to change the subject.
"I remember that NASA's project lasted for many years, and thanks to the space environment, many technologies made major breakthroughs, and I really didn't expect it to suddenly explode when I returned home."
"But it's been a bit too much lately, and I remember a few months ago, the San Francisco-based Life Fund sent an exploration spacecraft to the outside world."
"This attracted great attention at the time, it was just a test voyage, and it did not fly too far to return to Earth, but the Life-1 spacecraft had an accident in the process of returning."
"This incident shocked the whole United States at the time, and everyone discussed it for a long time."
Peter didn't become a journalist in this world, he had a solid foundation and majored in applied physics at university. After graduating, I joined a laboratory and is now half a scientist, so I pay more attention to similar information.
Of course, no matter what he does, Peter Parker's main job is Spider-Man.
Mawson listened to Peter babble as he flipped through the materials in his hand.
Mawson was still surprised when he saw the picture of Eddie Bullock, the person in the photo was familiar to him, or rather familiar with the actor who played Eddie Bullock.
The famous Tang teacher, Tom Hardy.
"A few months ago. When Eddie Bullock interviewed Drake, the president of the Life Fund, he clashed over heated rhetoric, and it seems that he himself lost his job because of it. ”
Mawson secretly made a note of it, and although he didn't know if it was part of the plot development, he felt that it was at least a breakthrough close to Eddie Bullock.
After thinking about it, Mawson suddenly asked, "You and Gwen, one in the eastern United States and the other in the western United States, what do you think?" To fall in love and cross the whole of America?"
The little spider looked confused, "It's Gwen's father, and he doesn't like me being with Gwen." ”
"After the revelation of what happened in Osborne Industries, Mr. Stacy became famous and later became a member of parliament......"
"Gwen had good grades and had planned to go to university in Oxford, but although I changed my mind, she went to San Francisco under her father's influence."
After graduating, she joined the Life Fund and quickly became famous, and it is said that she recently received the attention of the company and joined a secret experiment.
"Since she joined the experiment, we've seen each other less often, not even on video calls."
"Compared to her, I'm just a low-level researcher with a meager salary, and I don't even know when I'll be able to buy my own house in New York."
Peter looked melancholy.
To be honest, it's really rare to see a superhero who mixes like Spider-Man, Mawson smiled, "Lack of money, I'll lend it to you?"
Peter's hands trembled, thinking about the way Mawson made money, and refused without hesitation.
"I remember the last time I left, I gave you a share of Osborne Industries, and I learned about the recent stock market situation, and if you cash it all out, it will be enough for you to buy a house anywhere in New York."
"Where did you get all that money?"
The little spider scratched her head, "Donated." ”
"Didn't leave any of them?"
"No ......"
Well, it's Peter Parker.
It can be seen that the little spider regrets it now.
As soon as the conversation box was opened, he poured bitter water on Mawson, what identity gap, family opposition, distance between each other.
Balabala said a lot, and Mawson didn't interrupt him, patiently listening to him whining, this kind of trivial matter between ordinary people, Mawson hasn't felt it for a long time.
Everything is so close, yet so far away, and the trivial things that are so ordinary for ordinary people make Mawson feel a little fresh.
It can be seen that Peter Parker is still the same Peter Parker, and his love for Gwen is undoubted, but he has encountered a little doubt at this stage of his life.
And Mary Jane, who happened to be from an ordinary background and had a similar personality, broke into his life.
"By the way, is your other little lover, Mary Jane, working for the Global Daily?"
After listening to Peter Parker's chatter, Mawson suddenly asked.
"yes, why are you asking this?"
Peter nodded, looking at Mawson warily.
"Oh, nothing, just ask."
Mawson laughed and snorted, if memory serves, Eddie Bullock worked at the Global Daily before he left New York.
