The New Year's bell is about to ring tonight, but the people of Hell's Kitchen are not in the slightest joy, and are still in a state of panic.

No one knows what the reason is, only Kim and began to purge the gang that did not obey his orders.

Again, no one knows how long it has been since Kim has been like this, brazenly showing his strength to all the gangs.

The king, who sat on his throne, sent his army to exterminate the rebellious ministers and thieves.

Ruthless, ruthless, and intolerant of a little disobedience.

In the face of Jin Ji's order, there must not be a single "no", which is the consensus of all gangs.

At the same time, all the gangs are also cursing in their hearts about who angered Kim and woke up the sleeping lion.

Even if it is Jin He's partner, Mrs. Gao is very panicked now.

Because none of the people he planted around Kim had any contact, from the cleaners in his company to the accountants in his charitable organization, none of them survived.

While it's normal to plant people in each other's hands, it's the King, the underground king of the East Coast.

The things that gave Mrs. Gao a headache were far more than Jin Ji, but also Daredevil and Spider-Man, who had resurfaced, and carried out precise strikes on their factories.

The workers are blind and will not leak secrets, which means that some of their subordinates have become traitors.

It doesn't matter if you can't find the traitor, as long as there is a suspicion of contact with the outside world, it will never be wrong to get rid of all of them.

Mrs. Gao's purge has undoubtedly made the New Year in Hell's Kitchen even more prosperous.

Peter's New Year was similarly prosperous, as the vampire gave him a mansion, a large estate in East Hampton, to clear up the previous misunderstanding.

Even though it took two hours to drive here, Peter was satisfied.

Unlike the mansions in other areas, which are often decades or even hundreds of years old, this is a new house that has just been built.

Surrounded by boxwood gardens and lush green landscapes, it is immaculate.

Push open the custom-made wooden doors to meet the oak floors and tall ceilings, custom-made wood-paneled walls and exquisite decorations, and the overall atmosphere is elegant and natural.

"Uncle Ben, this way!"

Peter walked towards the dining room with Ben Parker and Aunt May on his face, his face full of joy that could not be written.

The restaurant's floor-to-ceiling bay windows are completely floor-to-ceiling, integrated with the ground, connecting to the view of the courtyard outside and bringing in the sunlight outside.

The mahogany table is already lined with a variety of delicacies, waiting to be enjoyed.

Peter invited Ben Parker to sit on the throne, and as soon as he sat down, he saw a portal open in the courtyard behind Aunt May, and Landau walked out with Tony and Potts.

"I'm going to pick up a friend."

Peter hurriedly stood up, attracted the attention of the two elders, and hurried towards the gate.

Pulling open the door, Tony was still complaining to Landau, "Oh my God, how can there be such unreliable magic!" You actually told me that revitalizing a pot can make wonderful food, and I actually believed it, I really ......"

Landau smiled awkwardly at Peter, glanced inside the room, and said, "Peter, I'm sure you wouldn't mind having a few more people to welcome the New Year with you." ”

Peter, who looked confused, hurriedly stepped aside and invited, "Please come in, thank you very much for coming here today!" ”

Tony led Potts into the house, and Landau scratched his nose and followed Tony into the house.

Peter led a few people to the restaurant and introduced them to them, "This is my Uncle Ben, and my Aunt May, both of whom are my closest relatives. ”

Ben Parker, who stood up, walked up to Tony, extended his hand enthusiastically, and said, "Mr. Stark, thank you for taking care of Peter. ”

Seeing Ben Parker reach out to Tony, Peter stepped forward in embarrassment, and was about to explain to him that Tony didn't shake hands, but was surprised to find that Tony was holding Ben Parker's hand.

"Peter is a good boy with gifts, talent is a gift, but character is the key to making it shine."

Potts looked around at the hand sanitizer, but was surprised to find that Tony's face was still smiling after shaking his hand, and it hadn't changed.

Tony looked back at the surprised Potts and introduced Ben Parker, "Virginia Pepper Potts, my love. ”

This was Landau's surprise, Tony revealed his heart to Potts so early, which was something Landau didn't expect.

If you think about it, Monday in Tony's body requires Tony to always be sincere and kind, which is also a natural thing.

Tony turned to Ben Parker and said, "This is Landau Addison, a doctor who knows a little bit about everything. ”

After a hearty luncheon, only Peter and Landau were left in the huge mansion.

The sunlight outside gradually turns into lights, the fireplace in the living room is lit, and the clock rings on the TV for the New Year.

Sitting around the fireplace, Peter looked up at the crystal chandelier overhead, crystal clear but also very cold.

"Perhaps, I mean maybe, life alone is not as good as it seems."

Landau was not surprised, after all, Peter, as a seventeen-year-old child, was spending the New Year alone for the first time, and it was inevitable that he was a little uncomfortable.

"And you're going to move back? Go back to Brooklyn and continue to live at your uncle's house? ”

Holding his chin in his hands, Peter stared at the fire in the fireplace, the light of which was reflected in his pupils, sometimes shaking and sometimes firm, and said lightly, "No, once I have seen the wider world, I will never go back." ”

"Is it that you can't go back, or do you not want to go back, and you don't want to go back?"

Peter's hand was lowered and he looked up at the TV, where the news anchor was announcing the news of the Life Foundation.

"Just like this news, I'm happy for the rescued astronauts now, but I also think about why this happened."

Peter turned his head to face Landau, his eyes blazing, and said, "Is the company deliberately creating such news, or is there some kind of deal behind it?" ”

"The crimes in the streets cannot be ignored, and the black hands hidden behind the scenes should not be tolerated."

Landau shook the red wine in his hand, responded to Peter's question, and said slowly: "I never interfere with anyone's decisions, but I have a question, Peter, do you have a plan?" ”

"Even though you don't have the pressure to go on to higher education, we won't let you take a break from school."

"Your construction company, and the beauty programs you're already working on, are going to take up your time and energy, so do you have any plans?"

Peter, who had been ambitious just a moment ago, was stunned and suddenly realized how much pressure he was about to face.

"Well—" Peter hesitated for a moment, unable to think of any good solution, and turned to Landau for help, "Dr. Landau, do you have any good ideas?" ”

Landau shook his head, took a sip of red wine, and said, "Since you don't have a plan, make enough plans to deal with everything." ”

"Everybody says that plans can't keep up with changes, but Peter, you know, if you prepare enough back then, most accidents will no longer be accidents."

"Like Batman, there's always a backup plan?" Peter picked up the milk he had and took a sip.

"But it's just a comic book character, a cartoonist's imagination."

In the face of Peter's defense, Landau sneered and said, "Peter, tell me, did you think that superpowers and magic really exist before you obtained them?" ”

Peter leaned back in his chair and said very frankly, "No, although I fantasize that I might one day gain superpowers, I know that it is all fake. ”

"Even though I'm sitting here now, with such a big mansion, with my own company, and with people who love me, I'm sometimes worried, worried that it's all a dream."

"Even I sometimes dream, the tree is gone, Aunt Mei doesn't remember me, everyone doesn't recognize me......."

"So I'm afraid to study magic now, I'm afraid the price of magic will cost me all this."

Putting down the wine glass, Landau didn't expect Peter to dream of Peter Parker from other universes, thinking that it was the four hundred aunts of the main universe who were beckoning helpers.

Landau thought for a moment, then said, "You should learn more magic, learn everything you can." ”

"Anyone may misunderstand you and betray you, but you have to believe that what you have learned and the truth that has been confirmed will not."

"Batman is fake, but you can be real!"

Peter rubbed his hands, lowered his head and secretly looked at Landau, and said crampedly, "Dr. Landau, you once said that you wouldn't teach me magic. ”

Landau was stunned, remembering that he had indeed said such things in order to persuade Peter, and touched his chin, and in a blink of an eye, he understood Peter's careful thoughts.

"Peter, it seems that you didn't just learn to pick up girls, but you also learned something. Well, I've changed my tune, I'll teach you magic. ”

"Yay!"

Peter jumped up from his seat excitedly and happily said to Landau, "When are we going to start?" Now, isn't it too late? Magicians don't care about day or night......"

Landau looked at Peter, who was in his original form, smiled, and casually opened the portal door in the bedroom, "I really don't care, but you're still young, let's go rest first." ”

The darkness of the night is driven away by the rising sun, hiding behind the houses.

Peter, who had risen early, finished washing, happily ran to Landau's room, pushed open the door, and said without thinking, "Good morning, Dr. Landau!" It's time to teach me magic......"

Finding the room in front of him empty, Peter clad down the stairs and saw Landau and Doom sipping coffee.

Landau beckoned to Peter and motioned for him to sit down, "You all know each other, so I'm not going to talk nonsense." Doom, you're going to take care of Peter, teaching him the basics and do's and don'ts first, and then a little bit of simple magic. ”

"Peter, I have some things to deal with, so follow Durm well."
