The police came quickly, but for a reason. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Captain, that's right, this guy should have done the convenience store robbery two hours ago." One of the policemen shouted excitedly after turning the middle-aged man who had fallen to the ground, and the other two policemen also surrounded him. The last policeman who was giving a confession to Peter was a frown with a look of surprise.

"Wait, I need to get my thoughts in order. You mean, he's got his gun out? ”

"Well, he's got his gun out." Peter sat down in a chair that had been turned out casually, and his body shivered from time to time.

"And then, he lowered the gun and gave you a chance to knock him unconscious?" The policeman's tone grew sharper.

"Well, I told him not to shoot." Peter was suddenly a little speechless, and his special abilities naturally couldn't be revealed casually. But my experience just now suddenly has a considerable loophole.

"And then he removed the gun?"

"Well, then he removed the muzzle." Peter could only bite the bullet and go on.

The policeman gave Peter a meaningful look, then wrote something in his notebook, and the scene fell silent.

"Well, my don't say, you're the luckiest and probably the stupidest guy I've seen in recent years." He gestured to the middle-aged man, who was just beginning to wake up. "This guy had just robbed a convenience store two hours earlier, and he shot and killed the owner just because it was less than $4,000. So he actually stayed at that last moment... ”

"Of course." The policeman shook the notebook in his hand. "You're not entirely lucky, are you? Minor internal bleeding, two broken bones, and at least ten stitches on his face, while you yourself are relatively fine. And according to what you just said, you are still being attacked. As a 16-year-old boy, doesn't this kind of achievement need to be explained? ”

Peter hung his head and was silent.

The policeman shook his head: "Forget it, I'm not trying to hold you accountable." After all, the guy lying on the ground is the criminal, and you're just defending yourself. Just remember, no matter how good you think you are, don't risk this dangerous thing yourself. Just leave it to us professionals. You're still young, and it's not worth losing your life for this. ”

The policeman closed his notebook and stuffed it back into his bag, and it seemed that the transcript was finally over. He then took out another pamphlet and handed it to Peter.

"This is the victim counseling manual, and most of the information you need is in it. If you need counselling, there are good suggestions above. One more point. The policeman took out his business card and stuffed it into Peter's hand. If you need any help, you can also give me a call. You have done us a great favor, and I will never forget this favor. ”

Peter nodded and glanced at the postcard in his hand. George. Captain Stacy, it seems, is still a small head. He finally let out a breath in his heart, but the next second he was lifted again. The door to the warehouse was opened, and old Jimmy, still in his pajamas, rushed in.

"It seems that the owner of this place is also here, well, I hope the insurance of this store is comprehensive enough." Officer Stacy looked indifferent.

Peter looked around. Smashed glass, several boxes that fell to the ground. The most serious thing should be the overturned cabinet, the wreckage of several valuable electrical appliances pressed underneath, and suddenly feel that it has become a fait accompli that I have been fired.

Looking at old Jimmy, frowning as he walked towards him, Peter felt that his luck had been terrible lately.

To his surprise, Jimmy first jumped up and grabbed Peter, looked around around at him, and made sure he wasn't hurt before turning around and talking to the officers. It didn't seem to mean even the slightest reproach on him.

Maybe it's just that he doesn't want to get angry in front of outsiders. Peter thought pessimistically. The loss of the entire warehouse is at least more than five thousand dollars, and Jimmy, the iron rooster who has nothing to pluck out, can't just do it so easily.

But Jimmy sent Peter straight home without even asking a word.

Over the next few shifts, Peter noticed a noticeable change. He was not alone in the chores that Peter had received before, and the hardship of going to work had been reduced to a reasonably reasonable level. Although Jimmy and Peter didn't talk much after that night, Peter could clearly sense the change in Jimmy's attitude towards himself.

"Am I getting through this?" Peter thought happily.

-----------------

But Peter's harvest that night was far from this: at that moment of life and death, the power in his body fully exploded, revealing his secret to Peter.

Although Peter did not know the name of this ability, Peter had already given it one for himself.

The Force

The reason is simple, it is too similar to the mysterious energy used by the Jedi in Star Wars.

This panacea-like ability is helpful to its users in almost every way. Able to enhance one's computing powers, enhance one's physical abilities, heal wounds, read other people's minds, and even manipulate other people's minds. Powerful enough Jedi to wreck tens of thousands of tons of spaceships with the sole use of the Force, taking the lives of their enemies thousands of miles away.

However, the Force's signature ability lies in its prediction of the future. Jedi Knight can anticipate their enemies' every move, and can even block hundreds of enemies with a single sword.

Of course, Peter's current ability to achieve the above feats was not enough. He can only read the minds of those who are not strong-willed, and as for controlling the enemy, he needs the other party to trust him completely, or the other party's own will is already in a state of confusion. He could only get rid of some bruises to heal his wounds, and as for telekinesis, it was now difficult for him to levitate a piece of paper in the air.

But that magical foreknowledge was quite useful, at least in the previous two fights. Now Peter seems to have broken some mysterious barrier, being able to freely use a small amount of the Force ability in his daily life, which at least allows him to fall a few times a week. And the ability to use the Force to enhance one's own body can also make the effect of one's exercise more obvious. Now he can run five kilometers in half an hour with the blessing of the Force, and he can do more than 40 push-ups in a row. It's not as good as the athletes at school, but it's also good among its peers.

Of course, he didn't go around sharing any of these things. Three and a half weeks to make this kind of progress is a little too scary.

As time passed, the date of the previous appointment with Mary also came quickly.

When Saturday finally arrived, Peter finally found a set of clothes in his cupboard that he could wear out, and slipped into his pocket the ticket Mary had handed him yesterday. Looking at the reflection in the mirror, and then taking a heavy look at his crumpled clothes, Peter felt for the first time that the little salary he had earned at Jimmy's was not enough.

He had taken a leave of absence from old Jimmy today, and after that incident, he became quite easy to talk to, and even asked Peter if he wanted to use his paid leave. And Uncle Ben and Aunt May were even more in favor when they heard that it was Mary who had invited. Aunt May was particularly excited about this, she had wanted to introduce 'Mary Next Door' to Peter for a long time, and was oblivious to the fact that they had been in the same school for the past three and a half years.

"Oh, it's the little Mary next door, right? Wait a minute, you can't go out in such a sloppy outfit, let me go to my room and look through it to see if there's any formal clothing that fits you to wear. ”

In this regard, Aunt May will always be the most enthusiastic person. And Peter, with a wry smile on his face, could only try to tell her how stupid it was to wear an old-fashioned suit to a rock concert. In the end, Peter even used a little hint of the Force to settle the matter.

Although he always felt that it was a bit immoral to use this effect of the hint on his relatives, he still couldn't help it in the end when he couldn't solve it. No way, this ability is so easy to use.

The band's performance is held at half past seven in the evening at a small local well-known bar. After showing his invitation, the security guard at the door let him in with a skeptical look on his face, and repeatedly insisted that he could not buy any more alcohol at the bar. In the end, he even went to the bar and gave him a warning.

Peter stepped into the bar, and as soon as he opened it, he was staggered by the tsunami of laughter and noise. The interior of the bar was already crowded, which surprised Peter a little and made him a little uneasy. He felt as if everyone was looking at him, asking the same question: Who let this little kid in?

Peter felt his legs go a little limp, but he couldn't find any less crowded corners. And just then, someone patted him on the back. He looked back and saw that it was Mary, with her electric guitar behind her back. If memory serves, it was her fifteenth birthday present.

"You're early!" Mary looked rather excited and grabbed Peter's hand. The slippery jade in her hands made Peter's heart flutter, and Peter could clearly feel her nervousness from her hands that were already soaked in cold sweat.

"Looks like there's going to be a lot of people tonight."

"Of course! Our band is still quite famous in this neighborhood! Mary gestured behind her.

Peter looked behind her, and sure enough, he saw three people coming around the corner, each carrying his own instrument, and the crowd around them took the initiative to make way for them, and some of them were obviously familiar with each other, and they came forward to high-five them, laughing and chatting. The girl in the lead looked in Peter's direction and waved hello. The girl looked a little like Mary, with long fiery red hair, a leather jacket, and black jeans. But this neutral dress makes her look even more charming.

It's like Mary when she grows up, Peter thought to himself.

"That's my cousin!" Mary said hello, and her cousin waved in that direction.

"The show is about to start, so I'll go backstage to get ready!" Mary straightened out the position of the guitar on her back, and Peter made a cheering motion.

"Come on!"

"Definitely!"
