Midtown High School.

In the rector's room, Principal Phils was talking to a reporter.

On Fils's desk was the heavy ceramic ashtray he used to hold the shredded tobacco he used to smoke his pipes.

The eyes of the reporter can even see Rodin's "The Thinker" head on the ashtray.

"Spring Ball Event?"

Principal Fils showed a slightly surprised expression when he heard what the other party meant.

He didn't expect that so much time had passed, and that there would be reporters to investigate such a thing.

"Actually, there's been quite a bit of coverage in the media, and if you want to get the details, or if you want to dig up something, maybe you can talk to the police, and I'm sure they know more than I do."

Principal Fils said to the other party.

Faced with the principal's refusal, the middle-aged reporter replied with a smile: "I have already talked to the police, so now I want to talk to you." The police counted the list of people who participated in the ball, including those who were not at the scene after the incident. Parker, I remember calling it by that name. ”

"Peter. Parker? ”

Principal Firth's brow furrowed, and he brushed his thinning hair, "Let me think about it, he's Ben. Parker's son, huh? ”

"No, he's Ben. Parker's nephew. ”

The middle-aged reporter corrected him.

"Oh, yes, I remember, his father was Richard. Parker, right? ”

"Sorry, my memory is a little skewed, if you've been in school for thirty years like me"

The corners of Principal Firth's mouth rose slightly, and he said, "It's really amazing to see a child who looks familiar, and then you find out that his father was your first student." ”

"I'd like to interview the students who participated in the ball, Peter. Parker is the subject of my proposed interview, but before I can do so, I need to know a little bit about him, Mr. Fils, can you provide me with his 'credit and evaluation profile'? ”

The middle-aged man couldn't stop the car as soon as he talked about other things, coughed, and directly stated his purpose.

"Credit and Evaluation Files?"

The principal groaned, "According to the rules, student files will not be released to the public, Mr. Paul. ”

The journalist, also known as Paul, explained to the principal: "Although I am a journalist by profession, it does not mean that I will not keep secrets. Mr. Fils, I won't divulge any information about the students, but I just want to know more about the person I'm going to interview before I do the interview. ”

"Well, I think I need to think about it, why don't you come back tomorrow?"

The principal pondered for a while and said to reporters.

"Of course, thank you, Headmaster."

Reporter Paul stood up and thanked the principal.

This journalist is sitting in the open air café, and Tony. The reporter Stark was talking to.

After the other party stood up, he pushed the door and left.

The perspective is elongated, and everything in front of you is captured by a certain gaze.

Peter, who was peeking into the principal's office, heard that the reporter wanted his own credit and evaluation file, and his expression became serious.

The credit and evaluation files include not only the student's name, parents, address, date of birth and other personal information, but also the results of various ability assessments, as well as the evaluation of all teachers.

Consulting the "Credit and Evaluation Portfolio" is a means of getting to know a high school student in all aspects.

Sitting in the playground stands, he reached forward.

The pitch-black bat was born from his hand and flew forward, catching up with the reporter.

After freeing the bat that was used as a surveillance, sharing his consciousness, Peter turned his gaze back to the playground.

On the playground of Midtown High School, the young and beautiful cheerleaders are dancing enthusiastically.

The members of the rugby team trotted into the playground.

Although Midtown High School's football team doesn't do well, it's still the most popular sport in the school.

Not only Midtown High School, but all schools, regardless of their grades, can be regarded as the most popular sport.

"Pay attention to your positioning, don't get caught, and if you don't have a chance to attack, immediately punt the kick! Do you understand? The boys? ”

The coach, who has a voice comparable to that of a hair dryer, patted the players on the shoulder and yelled.

"Understood!"

The team members replied in unison.

From the stands, Peter watched rugby training on the playground.

Among them, he found two acquaintances, "Lightning" Thompson and "King Kong", and was slightly interested.

"Drop!"

After a whistle, the game begins.

The stout "Lightning" took the rugby ball and subconsciously ran forward.

But in the next second, he was knocked down fiercely.

"Lightning!"

A hot-tempered rugby coach walked over and grabbed him with a lightning helmet and pulled him up.

"Don't give me a damn soul again! If you look like a fool like this, get out of here! Cheer up and give me an attack, understand?! ”

The coach, who gritted his teeth as if he wanted to swallow the "lightning", roared at him.

"Clear!"

Seeing that "Lightning" was not in a good state, "King Kong" of the fox friend came up and whispered to him, "Hey, 'Lightning', you stayed up late again last night?" Otherwise, why be absent-minded? ”

"No, I just"

"Lightning" glanced at Peter in the stands, "Didn't you see Parker in the stands?" ”

Looking in the direction of the other party's gaze, "King Kong" nodded.

"See, so what?"

"Hey, have you forgotten the last time we played basketball, this guy snapped up the basketball hoop? He's not the kind of muscular man who weighs more than one hundred and fifty kilograms, how can he do it? ”

"Lightning" said to his dead friend with some fear: "And don't you think this guy is getting more and more dangerous?" ”

"I doubt him"

He lowered his voice and said to "King Kong": "Like Iron Man, he is also a superhero or a supervillain, in short, he is by no means a normal person." ”

"Lightning" quickly associated with the news he saw this morning.

"Amount"

Hearing what the dead party said, "King Kong" also began to be a little suspicious.

After all, this guy has changed a bit lately.

I've bullied him before, what should I do if the other party wants to retaliate?!

The two wanted to say something more, but the coach's urging quickly interrupted their whispering.

The second round of training begins.

Adjust the mood of the "lightning" and force yourself not to look at Peter in the stand.

He exhaled and glanced at his opponent.

"Drop!"

A whistle blows!

"Lightning" immediately rushed forward with the rugby ball in his arms.

A wide receiver leaps into the dragon gate and pounces on the spirited "Lightning", ready to capture him.

But the "Lightning", which had been prepared for a long time, under the cover of "King Kong", leaned on one shoulder and slammed into the tall and large wide receiver who pounced.

"Well done, Lightning! This is fucking decent! ”

Looking at the brave "lightning", the short-sized coach clapped his hands and encouraged loudly.

Peter, who was sitting in the stands, continued to stare blankly at the rugby training on the playground.

The dialogue between "Lightning" and "King Kong" was naturally heard by him.

But he didn't take it to heart.

The current "Lightning" is not yet a later Venom agent, and there is no threat.

Even if the other party becomes a Venom agent, it will still be useless to him.

"Hi, Peter."

Peter was watching the rugby practice on the playground when he heard a familiar voice.

He looked back and saw that it was Jessica. Jones stood behind him.

Jessica wore a pair of short jeans and an open-breasted sweatshirt that perfectly complimented her figure and the sheaveness of her chest.

"Jessica?"

Peter looked at the girl who came over and sat down beside him.

"How's it going?"

Peter asked her casually.

"Uh-huh, not bad, thanks to your help."

Jessica thanked Peter, "Otherwise, I'd continue to sleep in that unsafe hotel." ”

Looking at Peter's side face, her expression was a little complicated, and her stomach was full of words to ask.

For example, why Peter controls people who have died, such as whether the black lightning that broke through the dream was sent by Peter in his dream that night.

Thinking of her own friendship with Peter in her dreams, her face turned slightly red.

"No, we've reached some kind of cooperation, so you're welcome."

Peter said to her, "I seem to have seen your sister just now. ”

"Yes, she went to the Parent-Teacher Association meeting, although I don't quite understand why she could take the place of a parent."

Peter nodded, "The Parent Classroom Association meeting means that your teacher said, 'You're a very smart kid, but now you're confused. ’”

"Yes, but that doesn't mean I have to be lectured every eight weeks."

Jessica looked into the distance, her expression slightly complicated, "She asked me to move into the house as soon as she saw me now, and in a way, she didn't completely hate me, and I was too. But I understood that I never belonged there, and that I had no home since my parents died. ”

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said this to you."

Jessica apologized to Peter, "I just don't know why I thought so much about it. ”

After apologizing to Peter, she hesitated for a moment and continued to ask the other party, "Did you know about the group coma incident that happened before, Peter?" ”

Peter was a little surprised to hear the other person mention "nightmare", and then nodded.

"I know, Aunt Mei also fell into a coma."

"Do you know what's going on?"

"Hmm."

Peter nodded, looking away from the rugby team on the playground and at Jessica.

"But trust me, you don't want to know what's going on."

Peter didn't hide it, but he didn't say it directly.

"Everyone is in a coma and haunted by nightmares, and I guess it will become a shadow for many people, and the best way to do this is to forget about it."

Listening to Peter's words, Jessica had a faint guess in her heart.

"What about you? Are you being dragged into a nightmare? ”

"Nope."

Peter shook his head and looked at the two rings on his left hand.

"I don't even know what I'm afraid of."

"Really?"

Looking at Peter's side face, Jessica was somewhat attracted by his confidence and laid-back temperament.

She felt as if she was facing a mysterious black being.

At the same time, the other side.

Gwen stood in the distance, looking at Jessica, who was sitting with Peter in the playground, with an unhappy expression on her face.

"Okay, Jessica took my place and watched the game with Peter."

She was a little aggrieved.

Although I have a good impression of Jessica, and I took her to the hospital last time, it doesn't mean that I don't mind the relationship between the other party and Peter.

"Maybe I'll have to talk to her."

She exhaled a breath out of her mouth, not knowing whether to say it to herself or to the symbiote in her body.

"That's right."

Gwen suddenly remembered something and asked the symbiote in his body, "Did you say that the existence in Peter's body is something that scares you?" What is that? ”

"I don't know, the moment his finger touched me, I felt it!"

The symbiote speaks of itself, a momentary spying sensation at Peter.

Symbiotic with Gwen, it began to spy on each other when they first met Peter.

But the moment it touched, the moisture formed by the strange and terrifying invisible object continued to devour the subtle existence that he had probed into.

It could feel as if it had entered a terrifying existence in pitch black.

In the darkness of the vast expanse of space, there are icy clouds glowing with blue fluorescence.

A black cloud appeared in the chaos, then swallowed up by the boundless darkness.

A black bat-like monster with huge wings appeared in the darkness, and in a flash, he heard the whispers of extraterrestrial creatures.

An indescribable bat monster, a spider-headed being, a nightmarish whisper that makes it shudder

Even deeper, he vaguely felt the presence of those who could not even peep into himself.

A terrifying darkness, and some beings are even on the verge of being because of his probing.

It probed Peter's mental and physical consciousness, and was startled, and was instantly filled with fear.

Even if he was an alien creature from the Star Sea, he had never seen such a strange and complex spiritual world.

It swears that Gwen, who is symbiotic with him, is as pure as an angel compared to this guy.

"He's dangerous!"

The symbiote reminded Gwen of its host.

"So, I suggest you'd better stay away from him."

"Even if you say that, my answer is 'no'!"

Gwen said to the symbiote, "I think you're more dangerous than Peter!" ”
