109 Christmas Eve
December 24, Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve.
When the lights come on, all the streets of New York City are lit up with colorful lights, and the whole world is in the Christmas atmosphere.
The glittering Christmas tree, the snowflake stickers in the cake shop, the amiable Santa Claus in front of the shop, the eye-catching Sale logo in the mall, and the Christmas songs that always echo in your ears......
The most crowded place on Christmas Eve is not the dance floor or the streets of the city, but the open area of the church. Especially in this era of the rise of superpowers, social turmoil, and chaos, the celebration of Christmas Eve in church is more and more sought after.
Midtown Institute of Science and Technology is an aristocratic school, and the church is also built in a magnificent and exquisite way, both in terms of floor space and craftsmanship, which exceeds the churches in many universities.
The red brick walls, the white stone pillars, the blue-gray slate tile roof, and the huge and full onion head dome on the crown dominate the tent roofs of different sizes on the four wings, forming a master-slave layout.
Under the Gothic arches, Locha stood at the door of the church waiting for Gwen to worship.
On Christmas Eve, the school's chapel is open to students, staff, and nearby residents, but Locha does not enter it.
Lotchach didn't believe in Jesus because he was Satan.
Gwen has no objection to this, everyone should have freedom of belief.
Inside the church, the faithful pray that God will cleanse the world of its sins, such as taking away demons!
Of course, there are also people who are unhappy with superheroes, such as Gwen, who has strong hearing, and hears the person next to her whispering a prayer for Spider-Woman to disappear......
As usual, Gwen's prayer is simple, family and friends are in good health, but this year there is one more, which is about her boyfriend Loxia.
This is followed by the Mass, which is a liturgy of the Church, the Mass is the highest sacrifice of the Catholic Church, the Holy Body and Blood of Jesus Christ are consecrated on the altar and become a true sacrifice, which is a repetition of the sacrifice of the Cross, so it is a religious ritual of the Catholic Church to commemorate the sacrifice of Jesus.
Gwen walked against the crowd towards the exit of the church, she did not continue to attend the climactic mass later, and Loxia was still waiting for her outside.
New York has had a heavy snowfall in recent days, and the whole city is covered in snow. Shortly after Loxia stood under the arch, a layer of snowflakes fell on both of her shoulders.
Suddenly, a pair of warm hands blindfolded him from behind, and Gwen suppressed his voice behind his back and said, "Guess who I am?" ”
"Hannah? Betty? Mary Jane? Losha guessed, "Who's that?" Anna? Ivanka? Susan ......"
Loxia was still guessing, the smile on Gwen's face had diminished a little, and she was dissatisfied with a little strength to pinch Locha's shoulder, so painful that Loxia quickly urged the horse charm.
"Murder?" Loxia put her arms around Gwen and grabbed her delicate neck with one hand and said, Loxia shook it, and Gwen's head shook with her, "Miss Spider, you don't know how powerful you are?" ”
"Humph!"
Gwen gave Loxia a roll of her eyes with a sideways face, expressing her displeasure at the fact that Loxia had just reported such a bunch of girls' names.
The two walked along the snow-covered cobblestone path toward the off-campus.
Losha was wearing a long black trench coat, and he pulled a white knitted hat from his trench coat pocket and brought it to Gwen. To enter the church, you need to wear formal attire and take off your hat and crown.
Gwen wore a red and white-trimmed overskirt, flesh-colored stockings and deerskin boots. Gwen slipped a hand into the pocket of Luxchae's trench coat and held it with him.
Gwen adjusted the knitted hat on her head with her other hand, her face was a little ruddy and cute in the cold weather, and it was even more stunning with the loose blond hair.
"Come on, I don't even know those girls!" Losha said helplessly.
Gwen is still struggling with this problem along the way, and it seems that Spider-Woman is just a little girl.
"Hannah, too?" Gwen seized on the loophole.
"Uh......" Rorschach could only blink innocently.
"What did you just say before God?" Rorschach began to change the subject.
"You don't know Hannah either?" Gwen was unrelenting......
Gwen stood alone at the school gate, playing on her phone, waiting for Loxia to pull the car over.
Suddenly, a black Maserati slowly slid across the snow and stopped in front of Gwen.
Gwen frowned slightly, it was normal to attract some wild bees and butterflies with her appearance, but luckily Loxia went to drive, otherwise someone would definitely suffer!
Gwen was about to walk away, but the passenger driver's door slowly lowered, revealing a charming face.
"Miss Gwen, do you want a ride?" Natasha said with a smile.
Gwen was slightly startled, it was actually Black Widow...... On the day of the Demonic Project, she had met the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.
Gwen was a little confused, but what was Black Widow looking for herself? Or what is S.H.I.E.L.D. doing with a high school graduate? Could it be that they found out her identity as Spider-Woman?
"Thanks, my boyfriend is on his way." Gwen shook her head and refused, "We know each other? ”
The Maserati cab door opened, and the American team stepped out of the car.
"It may be a bit of a bother, but we really don't have a good way to get in touch, Miss Spider." Team America said, "Natasha suggested contacting you via email, but I vetoed it. ”
Since Team America was rejected by Tony, Hill summoned the forces of S.H.I.E.L.D. to find out Spider-Woman's true identity, and with the work of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s intelligence department, this task was not difficult to complete, and it took a week for them to determine Spider-Woman's identity...... A graduate of Midtown Institute of Science and Technology, Gwen Stacy.
"What's the matter...... Captain. Gwen covered her face and said that since her identity was exposed, there was no need for her to continue acting, and the American team was also an admirable superhero in her eyes, "Is there anyone who threatens the safety of the world?" 'Devil Project 2.0' is here again? ”
"No one threatens the security of the world yet." Natasha also got out of the car, and she held out her hand to Gwen, "Your outfit goes well with Christmas!" ”
"Thank you." Gwen politely shook hands with the agent in front of her.
"Or it's more accurate to say that there are people threatening the security of the world at any time," the U.S. team said, rounding the front of the car, "you know what I'm talking about." ”
"Demon ......," Gwen said without thinking.
"yes, that's right, it's this guy!" Natasha shrugged as she leaned against the car.
"Do you know about the Anti-Demon Alliance?" The U.S. team asked again.
"Hmm...... There should be no one in the whole of New York who doesn't know about the Anti-Demon Alliance, Captain, and you personally announced the formation in front of the world's media. Gwen seemed to understand what they were trying to do.
"Yes, he's still wearing that uniform! Solemn oath is coming......" Natasha teased.
"Today is Christmas Eve, and it may be the last Christmas Eve for mankind, and no one knows if the demons are brewing the next plot to destroy humanity in some corner of the world tonight...... We all know that he has this ability. ”
"We're here to invite you to join the Anti-Demon Alliance...... Spider-Woman! The U.S. team said straight to the point.
"Find a place for us to talk? Is it convenient? Natasha looked around and said, "This is not the place to talk. ”
Suddenly, there was a roar of car engines at the intersection, and a Ford sedan sped up in their direction.
The American team was full of surprise, Natasha made preparations for battle, and the two thought that they were terrorists who had come to attack them.
Gwen smiled silently as they watched the two of them react.
"It doesn't seem convenient, my boyfriend is here." Gwen said as he looked at the Ford that was still accelerating.
"Seventy kilometers per hour, braking distance about thirty meters, in snow it gets longer, but your boyfriend has no sign of slowing down." Natasha said quickly, "I hope he has the money to pay for my car repairs." ”
After saying that, Natasha turned around, as if she couldn't bear to look at the picture of her car being hit by a rear-end collision.
Gwen only kept smiling, and she said lightly, "He can't afford to have me." ”
There was a tooth-aching sound of sudden braking of the car, leaving two dark marks on the road where the Ford passed, and something that Natasha did not expect happened, the car with a speed of seventy yards per hour actually stopped suddenly within ten meters! It's more than two meters away from her car!
"Modified cars?"
"Perhaps......" Gwen said, nodding.
Loxia honked her horn and motioned for Gwen to get into the car. But Gwen stood there and beckoned for Loxia to get out of the car.
Gwen is bent on leading Loxia to become a righteous superhero, and now that she has met Captain America, the most positive superhero in the world, she will definitely not let go of this opportunity to let Loxia and Team America get acquainted.
Loxia couldn't help but smile as he looked at Team America and Natasha outside the car. He pushed the door open and walked over to the three of them.
The American team looked up and down at the oncoming Locha, who was dressed very formally, wearing a full black suit and long trench coat, wearing custom-made leather shoes, walking calmly, with a somewhat wanton smile on her face. This feeling of elegance reminded the American team of an acquaintance......
Natasha's eyes flashed with light, "Miss Gwen, your boyfriend is quite handsome......"
"Really? Thanks for the compliment. Gwen smiled and replied, "I think so too." ”
Gwen stepped up to take Lochach's hand, but Loxia put her arms around her waist first.
"My boyfriend! I don't need to be introduced, right? I'm sure you've all read my profile. Gwen smiled, and she introduced Loxia again, "Miss Natasha, and ......."
"Captain America!" Loxia interjected, and he took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, "I also watch the news." ”
The U.S. team stretched out their hands, and the two shook each other, and Natasha on the side took the initiative to reach out again.
"The captain and Miss Natasha are here to invite me to the Anti-Demon Alliance." Looking at the surprised expressions of the two, Gwen continued to explain, "Loxia knows about me, superhero Spider-Woman or something......"
"Wow! You guys have a great relationship. Natasha looked at Lochael and said, "How does it feel?" Have a superhero do his girlfriend...... It would have been cool if it were me! ”
"Hmm...... It's pretty good. Rorschach replied.
"What do you mean it's pretty good?"
Gwen was a little dissatisfied, and she looked at Loxia with an expression that seemed to give you another chance to organize the language.
"It was amazing! Spider-Woman being his girlfriend should be what many people dream of, right? "But it's okay for me, because when I met Gwen, she wasn't Spider-Woman, I liked Gwen, and it didn't have much to do with whether she was a superhero or not." ”
"Wow...... Natasha looked at Loxia with admiration, and she asked Gwen, "Are all the students so sultry these days?" Are there any boys in the class who are as good as Lochach? Older agents also need to deal with singleness. ”
"If Miss Natasha wants a relationship, I think there will be a lot of good men who will flock to it......," Gwen said with a smile.
"Let's get down to business, shall we? Are Miss Gwen and Mr. Lochach interested in visiting the headquarters of the Anti-Demon Alliance? We can talk about it in detail then. The U.S. team said seriously.
He didn't interject into the topic just now, Loxia and Gwen seemed to have a good relationship, and even he knew that Gwen was Spider-Woman, and Gwen didn't even tell her father the news......
However, the American team's impression of Loxia is somewhat negative, driving fast on the ice and snow to show off their driving skills, acting frivolously, and even some rhetoric.
As an ordinary person's boyfriend, he is qualified and even excellent, but his girlfriend is Spider-Woman.
The American team's evaluation of Spider-Woman has always been very good, powerful, and the most important thing is that she was born in a police family with correct values and a strong sense of justice and responsibility.
But apparently none of this has anything to do with him, and the purpose of his trip is only to invite Spider-Woman to join the Anti-Demon Alliance.
"Is this already settled?" Loxia asked curiously, "Gwen, have you agreed to join the Anti-Demon Alliance?" ”
"No, not yet." Gwen shook her head and said, "It's a big deal for me, and I need to think about it!" So what is your opinion, Losha? ”
Gwen's words made both Team America and Natasha feel a little bad, there should be no boyfriend who would tolerate his girlfriend joining a violent organization and fighting a powerful enemy like a demon every day, right? Even the follow-up will have an impact on him, and it is not unheard of for criminals to take revenge on the superhero's family.
If Gwen joins the Anti-Demon Alliance, both the danger and the impact on her life will be huge.
Gwen values Lochacha's opinion, after all, Loxia is the only one around her who knows her identity, and she can only discuss these things with Lochael.
"As long as it's your choice, I'll support it." Locha's answer surprised both Team America and Natasha, "But Captain, what I want to ask is, is the world really in danger right now that a high school student needs to save it?" A member of the Anti-Demon Alliance? It sounds like a formal job, but Gwen should go to college for the rest of her life. ”
"It's not about age, it's about ability." Team America said seriously, "Miss Gwen has great power, we need her to join, for example, in the last 'Demon Project' Miss Gwen played a key role, without her more people would have died, maybe we can't even stop the 'Demon Project'." ”
