Chapter 33: Be Honest

"So, the reason you were discharged from the hospital was because someone with mind control had taken control of your friend, and you wanted to find him?" George struggled to suppress his ridicule. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info: "Have you watched too many movies and comics?" Peter, I know you may have some psychological problems, but I think it's better for you to try to find a psychiatrist. ”

"He's not alone." Peter's expression was still extremely serious. "He also has a companion who has enhanced strength and a skin that is strong enough to block bullets. However, I don't think he followed Kilgrave voluntarily, and should have been one of the victims of his abilities. ”

At this time, Ge Wen's eyes also began to have a trace of strangeness, and she was also a little suspicious of his words.

Peter was also quite helpless at the suspicion of the two in front of him, he closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then turned to face George. "Give me a coin."

"What?" George didn't think he heard clearly. "You want a coin?"

"That's right." Peter nodded.

"You can't be a bandit now, so you will go to the homeless man under the bridge to ask for change?" As soon as he finished speaking, George felt a sharp pain in his lower back. He turned his head to find his daughter looking at him with a smile that made his scalp tingle.

My daughter is older, and her heart is already biased towards outsiders. George silently burst into tears and pulled out his wallet. He took out a twenty-five cent coin and handed it to Peter.

But Peter didn't reach out to take it, he just nodded, and the coin suddenly floated on its own, slowly drifting into his hand. With a few finger movements, the coin began to spin at a breakneck speed in his hand.

"That's what I'm capable of." Peter said quietly.

β€œwhat,the,fuck。” George directly burst out foul language, and he directly subconsciously stood up and took a step back. His hand was also on his gun, ready to pull it out at any moment. And Ge Wen's eyes lit up on the side.

"Super electromagnetic cannon? Your ability is electromagnetic manipulation?? Gwen slapped the table and cried out excitedly. Will you be able to overshoot the electromagnetic cannon? It's the kind that flies out with a flick of a finger. ”

The father and daughter made a little more noise, attracting the attention of the other customers in the cafΓ©. Peter quickly put the coin away, and George sat down, his expression still solemn.

"Mutants? What's that? Gwen asked the two of them questions first. Looking at the eager eyes of the two, George hesitated for a moment before answering.

"You don't know that they're normal, but their main activity was in the sixties and eighties. And even in that time period, not many people had heard of them. George said slowly. Peter and Gwen's ears were cocked, and they listened intently to George as they told them secrets they hadn't heard of. "I don't know much about them. But even what I know is semi-confidential information. ”

"Mutants are said to possess extremely powerful superpowers, and these abilities come from some kind of mutation in their bodies. They seem to be quite hostile to us 'ordinary people'. Fortunately, there were only a few of them, even in the eighties there were only a few thousand in the whole of America. And after the nineties, there was no news from them. ”

"Did something happen?" Peter and Gwen asked in unison.

"Having said it, I don't know much." George spread his hands. "Maybe it's some cataclysm, maybe it's some kind of disease. But after the nineties, there was hardly any news of mutant activity. Personally, I prefer this possibility later, because no new mutants are born now. ”

"So, if Peter were a mutant, he might be the first mutant in nearly twenty years?" Gwen asked, and George nodded.

"No, I'm not a mutant." Peter pondered for a moment before giving his thoughts. "My abilities don't come from myself, I'm more like... How to say... It was chosen by a force and got the right to use it. You all know the Force, right? ”

To his surprise, both Gwen and George shook their heads.

"The Force? Star wars? Peter looked at the two of them incredulously, and gave up a little frustrated when the other made sure he didn't know anything about it. Well, it's an older movie, but I think you've at least heard of it..."

"Overall, the Force is like an incomparably vast web that runs through everything in this world. And I can do a series of things that ordinary people can't do. For example, the telekinesis shown earlier. Peter turned his finger again, and the coin floated again.

"Treat your injuries quickly." Peter gestured to his right arm, and George nodded thoughtfully.

"And a certain psychic ability." This sentence came directly into the minds of Gwen and George, startling them both. Gwen shuddered violently, her blonde hair standing on end like a fried cat. George, on the other hand, accidentally knocked over the coffee in his hand and smashed the cup to pieces.

After apologizing to the waiter who had come to clean, George's face became uncertain.

"I need to get my friends out, that's my bottom line." Peter was frank that now that the matter had been exposed, he didn't need to hide much more. "You've told me to stop my usual actions, and I'm going to try to do that, but I have to get my friend out first. I should pay for my fault, not my friends. ”

"This 'friend' of yours sounds like just a dangerous person who ignores the law." George commented unceremoniously. "To tell you the truth, I'm skeptical that you tell you the truth about some of these things."

"Then I don't have anything else to do." Peter was a little helpless. "That's all I have."

"However, I can't completely deny that everything you say is a lie. I need to do more investigation. After all, if you are telling the truth, it is indeed too dangerous for a person who can freely control the minds of others and has no moral bottom line. But until then, the pact between us is still there. You do whatever you want, and I'll reveal your identity. ”

Looking at Ge Wen next to him, who was unhappy again, he added another sentence lightly. "It doesn't matter who pleads for you."

-----

George sat for a short time before leaving, and he was going to look up some information. Looking at his anxious look, Peter's words still carried some weight in his heart.

The remaining two couldn't help but fall silent. After this happened, there was a trace of embarrassment between the two who were originally very close, and neither of them knew whether to take the initiative to speak.

"Peter, you're a bastard." Gwen suddenly took the initiative to speak, her expression quickly freezing after George left. Peter, who was drinking his own milkshake, didn't know how to answer, so he could only continue to take two more sips.

"You've been lying to me since the beginning, and then you've done this kind of thing." She continued to speak in a flat tone, but Peter knew very well that Gwen would only be like this when she was really angry.

"I'm sorry... But I didn't think to lie. ”

"Are you sure, Peter? Parker? Gwen shook her head. I asked you what you were doing on the weekend, and you said you were going to work overtime. I asked you where the injuries came from, and you said they were accidentally done during training. In retrospect, you really lied a lot. ”

"I... I just want to protect me, protect you..."Peter's voice was much lower, and he was a little afraid to look into Gwen's eyes.

"Protect me from what? Don't want me to see your true side? I like you, I trust you, but you destroy that trust yourself. What you've done breaks my heart. ”

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Peter, still looking rather low, grabbed his hair and fiddled with it in his own hands. "I just don't know... Can you accept me like this? ”

"Ten tiramisu."

"Huh?" Peter was suddenly stunned by Gwen's words, and he looked up to see the smile on Gwen's lips.

"Very tiramisu, once you have a professional massage, I will consider whether to forgive you."
