Chapter Seventy-Two: Gwen, Symbiote

Peter Parker had never remorseled so much as he did today, for his indulgence led to Uncle Ben's death. He didn't even dare to look at his weeping aunt in the living room, let alone tell her that he had caused all this. He was like a little beast who had been hit and hid in his den, licking his wounds alone, unwilling to come into contact with anyone.

Even if it's the girl he likes, Gwen Stacy.

Even if it's his best friend at school, Harry Osborne.

"It's not that Peter doesn't want to see you, it's just that he probably needs a space to be alone right now." Aunt May sent Gwen and Harry to the door, hugged her and Harry gently, and comforted her. The death of her husband also made her extremely sad, but it also made her realize that this family needs someone to stand up and support it. As an adult, she is more able to control her emotions in front of others.

"I know." Gwen also hugged Aunt May, "Tomorrow if there is a need, I will help Peter ask for leave." I'll be coming to see him every few days. ”

"I'll come to see him often, too." Harry chimed in.

"You are all good boys, and I'm glad Peter had a friend like you." Aunt Mei squeezed out a smile, and only closed the door after watching the two people who waved goodbye leave.

"Need me give you a ride? My driver is nearby. Harry and Gwen walked side by side, pointing to their own driveway parked on the side of the road.

"Thank you." Gwen thanked him and didn't refuse Harry's kindness. The two of them sat in the back seat of the car, and Harry commanded the driver in the driver's seat. The car started and headed in the direction of Stacy's house.

It was quiet in the car, and both Harry and Gwen were silent, as if no one wanted to speak to break the silence. Harry could see the worry and loss on Gwen's face, but he didn't know how to comfort people. His tricks of teasing girls with their rhetoric didn't seem right to use on an occasion like this, on Gwen's body.

"You like that boy." Gwen, who was silent with her head down, suddenly heard a voice. She raised her head in a bit of a trance and looked at Harry next to her, "What did you just say?" ”

"What?" Harry was taken aback by Gwen's sudden questioning, and asked back.

"Didn't you just talk to me?" Gwen blinked, she had just heard a voice talking to her, but she couldn't concentrate and couldn't tell where it was coming from.

"Of course not, I thought you needed to be alone right now." Harry shook his head.

"You like that boy named Peter!" Another voice was clearly captured by Gwen.

Gwen glanced around a little blankly, and finally her eyes fell on Harry next to her, "You really didn't talk to me just now?" ”

"I promise not!" Harry raised his hand.

"But I just really heard someone talking to me." Gwen frowned.

Hearing this, Harry looked at Gwen with some concern: "I know you're worried about Peter's condition, but don't put so much pressure on yourself. I think you're having auditory and visual hallucinations. I occasionally get too stressed out academically, and I do that. Sometimes I dream of my father's disappointed face, and that's terrible. ”

"Maybe." Gwen didn't argue.

Stacy's house wasn't far away, and soon the driver was at his destination, and after saying goodbye to Harry, Gwen got out of the car with his backpack and walked in the direction of his home.

"You've got that boy all in your head, can you change some other picture?"

The sudden voice sounded again, and Gwen suddenly stopped. Her face was a little pale, and when she looked around and saw that there was no one but her, she frowned and said tentatively, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm you." The voice was quick to reply.

"You're me?" Gwen felt a little ridiculous for a moment. She felt that she was mentally normal, stable, and without the slightest precursor to schizophrenia. Some time ago, I joined Hebolun and enjoyed a full body monitoring, and everything was normal!

"You can just think of me as an alien symbiote, where we can coexist, coexist, and grow together with our host." The voice said. "You don't have to look for me, I'm in you. I'm talking to you right now with consciousness. ”

"Symbiotes? Do you have your own mind and will? When did you enter my body? Gwen had a barrage of questions, and she felt that the fright she had experienced in a year was not as big as it was today.

"Of course I have my own mind and will, but when did it enter your body? I think it's been a few days. I feel like your brain is a good fit for me, and I don't like hosts that are too stupid. The voice said.

"Wait, can you know what I'm thinking?" Gwen suddenly realized something she had overlooked at first.

"Of course, it's instinctive. We feed on the emotions of the host, and different individuals have different tastes, such as me, I prefer to be happy, especially the happy emotions obtained from knowledge, I especially like it. You're in a terrible mood today, and it makes me have a bad appetite. It's like a chef who makes a big table of difficult dishes that you have to finish eating. This is not the most terrible thing, what is even more terrifying is that this chef has no intention of stopping, he is still cooking more unpalatable dishes.

I didn't want to frighten you, but I couldn't stand it. I'm not one of those rough guys who doesn't refuse to eat any emotion. I don't have a big appetite! The voice grumbled frantically.

Strangely, Gwen felt the dissatisfaction of a certain consciousness in herself. Gwen wasn't sure if it was her hallucination, though, or if it was real.

"I'm sorry." Under the influence of this emotion, Gwen subconsciously apologized.

"Do you like that boy? If you like it, why don't you confess? I've seen your memories, and for you, as long as you confess, you can be together. The voice repeated the same words. But I suggest that if you really want to be together, you must give yourself a little more personal space and learn more knowledge, at least so that I can eat well every day. Although the dopamine secreted by love is also good, it can't be considered a meal for me. ”

"I feel like I need to get my body checked." Gwen Road. She didn't want to have such an unknown symbiote in her body all the time, especially if the other party could still share her memories.

"You're in good health. In fact, I can make you healthy even if it's not healthy. You don't need to worry about what kind of threat I am, I have a symbiotic relationship with you. The voice could easily sense Gwen's inner turmoil and thoughts, but it didn't show any heat about it, but tried to reason with Gwen to gain trust.

However, Gwen was determined, and she decided to go to the company as soon as possible to check, even if this parasite that kept saying that symbiosis and co-prosperity were harmless to humans and animals, then at least let her know what this thing in her body was.
