"Overnight?"

Peter looked at Gwen standing in the rain in surprise.

He really didn't expect the other party to make such a request.

Could it be that Gwen suffered some psychological trauma during the battle with the vulture last night and wanted to run away from home?

It is said that Gwen is indeed an adolescent girl, and it is not uncommon for her relationship with her parents to have a cold war.

Peter is caught up in speculation about a confused teenage girl in adolescence.

"Uh...... Is it inconvenient? ”

Gwen asked Peter tentatively.

"Peter, who's out there?"

Aunt Mei's voice sounded in the living room.

"It's Gwen."

As soon as Peter replied, Aunt May and Uncle Ben stood behind him.

"Gwen?"

Aunt Mei and Gwen are also very familiar with each other, looking at Gwen standing in the heavy rain outside the door, the couple showed stunned expressions.

"Come on in, it's raining so hard outside."

Aunt May grabbed Gwen's hand and pulled her in.

After taking Gwen's hand and entering the living room, Aunt May hurriedly went to get a towel to help her wipe it.

Uncle Ben got up and poured her a cup of hot water.

Gwen thanked Aunt May and Uncle Ben, and then looked at Peter with a slightly smug expression.

"Aunt Mei, Uncle Ben, Gwen wants to stay here for a few days."

Peter directly stated Gwen's purpose.

When the couple heard that Gwen was going to stay, they were stunned.

After a while, Aunt Mei reacted and said to Gwen: "Of course it's okay, but does your father know?" Gwen. ”

"That's exactly the problem."

Gwen's wiped blonde hair hung down, she touched the tip of her itchy nose, and said in a somewhat depressed mood: "I had some disagreements with my dad, we couldn't reach an agreement, I think...... Maybe both sides should calm each other down. ”

After returning home last night, Gwen and his father quarreled with each other over Spider-Woman's identity.

Her father still had the same point of view as before, and she gave up her identity as Spider-Woman.

But how could she possibly abandon this identity?

It has almost become another part of my life, an inseparable life.

"It's okay, everything will be fine, Gwen."

Aunt May saw Gwen's sadness and came over and gently hugged her shoulders.

"If you like it, you can stay here forever and make it your home, Peter......"

While comforting Gwen, Aunt May said to Peter, who was standing next to her, "You go upstairs and clean up the study on the second floor, Gwen lives there at night." ”

Before Peter could prepare to act, Uncle Ben stood up first, "Ahem...... I'm going to clean up. ”

There were a lot of his collections in the study, just in case he had to clean up by himself.

Evening.

It was getting dark, and the rain had long since stopped.

Peter spoke upstairs to Gwen, who was a little depressed, and went downstairs to the living room.

Uncle Ben went to the supermarket, and Aunt Mei was the only one in the living room sorting out the newspapers that Uncle Ben had bought before.

But for some reason, Aunt Mei suddenly lowered her head and secretly wiped a handful of tears.

"Aunt Mei, are you okay?"

Peter, not knowing what was going on, walked over to Aunt May and asked.

"I ...... I'm fine, Peter. ”

Seeing her nephew coming, Aunt Mei hurriedly pretended to be nothing.

"Is that what happened?"

"No, it's nothing, it's just ...... Seeing Gwen today, I think a lot. ”

Aunt Mei smiled bitterly.

After a moment of silence, she looked up, and Aunt May suddenly asked Peter, "Do you like me and Ben?" Peter. ”

Faced with Aunt Mei's sudden question, Peter was stunned for a moment.

"Of course, why would you suddenly ask such a question, Aunt Mei."

Aunt May reached out and stroked Peter's hair, "Not as an aunt...... or your relative, but as a person. Do you like me as a person? ”

Peter didn't understand why Aunt May asked, but he nodded.

"Of course."

After being reborn, Aunt Mei and Uncle Ben cared for him very much.

He is not a hard-hearted person, and it is impossible to be indifferent to the other party's efforts.

"Hmm...... But Peter, you've been spending a lot of time at home lately, and you've obviously preferred to go somewhere else, and you're focusing on other things. ”

Aunt Mei said her recent knot.

"Yes, but you and Uncle Ben are busy, aren't they? You're going to work......"

Peter organized the wording and whispered comfort to Aunt May.

But his words were quickly interrupted by Aunt Mei, "I mean, I wonder if it's just because life forces us to live together." ”

"I don't know, Peter, if you really want to live with us. After all, sometimes, it is not us who choose to live, but life that arranges such a position for us. ”

Aunt Mei's eyes were filled with tears.

She was constantly worried about whether she was not doing well enough, and Peter was bored and chose to stay away from the family.

The current disagreement between Gwen and her father made her anxiety even worse.

"Nope."

Peter shook his head and took Aunt May's hand, "I love you and Uncle Ben, always." It's just that...... I had an illness. ”

"Sick? Peter, are you sick? ”

Aunt Mei's expression immediately became a little flustered.

"Don't worry, Aunt Mei, the 'illness' I mentioned is more psychological. I sometimes believe that if I get too close to the people around me, I might hurt them. ”

Peter said meaningfully.

On the second floor, Gwen stood in the hallway, listening to Peter and Aunt May's conversation.

She didn't mean to eavesdrop, but when she was about to go downstairs, she overheard the conversation between the two.

When she heard Peter say that she was "sick," she was shocked.

It's no wonder that Peter has changed a lot of time lately.

What kind of "sickness" would have made Peter afraid of hurting others?

Can you help him with your own words?

Gwen leaned her back against the wall in the hallway, lost in thought.

......

At the same time, in a laboratory of the Osborne Group.

Dr. Octavius was lying on the bed, his eyes covered with gauze, and blood oozing faintly from his waist and abdomen.

In a previous experiment, he suffered severe facial and neck injuries due to an explosion.

The consequences of the explosion were not only there, but the mechanical arm he was carrying was embedded in his body when he was doing precision experiments.

At this moment, the hideous mechanical arm was embedded in his body, and the other end hung on the ground.

The experts and scholars in the laboratory are treating and observing him.

"How is he?"

A researcher in a white hazmat suit replied:

"Not a lot of seconds! Dr. Octavius' robotic arm, which was published in Scientific American, is incredible. Now, the metal arm has completely fused with his skin, and seems to be connected to his central nervous system. ”

The director in charge of Octavius' treatment frowned.

"We have to fix this and get him to wake up as soon as possible. Now the government is looking for Dr. Octavius, the 'strange bird' who robbed the helicopter, and has made the police suspect Osbon and Octavius. ”
