Chapter 2 Crisis

Not long after Arryn called the police, police cars whizzed by, and surrounded the hotel where Arryn woke up.

After a short but fierce firefight.

Two bodies were lifted from the inn, and Gwen Stacy was quickly rescued and taken to the hospital.

······

Gwen Stacy was rescued, but Erin, who was hiding aside, felt a chill in her heart at this time.

Two.

The police only lifted out two bodies, and did not escort a third person, who had heard three people outside the door.

Of the three people, only two people were finally brought out, which means that one of them ran away in the midst of the police roundup.

Erin didn't know who the man who had escaped.

But he knew he was in big trouble.

It doesn't matter if those people entered the room before the police arrived.

Just from the fact that the police rescued Gwen Stacy in the room this time, the gang only had to look a little to understand that they had escaped before the police broke into the hotel.

Thinking of this precise raid by the police, as long as that gang is not stupid, then nine times out of ten they will settle this account on their own heads.

Then you will be in danger.

In this way, there are only two paths left in front of you.

One is to go to the New York Police Department and seek protection as a victim.

For the sake of saving Gwen Stacy by making that phone call, Erin believed that her father, George Stacy, would not mind helping her.

Can that ······ Is it really safe?

Before, when the guys who kidnapped themselves were chatting, they heard it because one of George Stacy's enemies was dissatisfied with him, and Gwen Stacy was tied up because of this, can he really protect himself?

And with such an accurate grasp of George's daughter's whereabouts, Erin has reason to suspect that the big guy mentioned by those guys is one of the New York Police Department.

If that's the case, then if you go to the police station to ask for help, you're really falling into the net.

"No, I can't put my life in the hands of others."

Erin, who had just crossed the Dao world, was full of vigilance about everything, and was seriously insecure, almost subconsciously denied this path.

Putting one's life in the kindness of others was not what Arryn wanted.

That being the case.

Then he will have to figure out how to solve this problem on his own.

But before that, I have to go home.

Come to think of it.

Erin turned his head and walked towards Chinatown, where he had lived for more than ten years.

······

I took out the key and unlocked the door, and walked into the old-fashioned three-story apartment that my mother had left for me, and as soon as the door opened, I saw Pepper Potts wearing a blanket and sitting on the sofa in the living room with a frown.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Pepper Potts turned around and saw Arryn standing in the doorway.

The moment he saw Erin, Pepper Potts's tight brow immediately loosened seven points, but soon tightened by three points, Pepper took off the blanket on his body, got up and looked at Erin, and said: "It's not a good habit to stay home at night, can you tell Aunt Pepper where you went last night?" ”

Seeing Pepper Potts, Erin was also stunned.

And it looks like Pepper Potts has been waiting here all night.

But soon, the fragments of memory that crossed his mind reminded him of who the person in front of him was.

Pepper Potts.

Personal assistant to Tony Stark, Chairman of Stark Industries.

He used to be a partner in the company of Elin's mother, Kelly Lim, and was also the best friend of Elin's mother.

When Kelly was alive, she invited Pepper Potts to stay in this small building many times, and even gave Pepper Potts a key.

When Kelly died unexpectedly in a car accident, Arryn at that time was as if he had lost his soul, and he was in a blur.

At that time, Kelly's funeral and the inheritance behind it were all helped by Pepper Potts, if it weren't for Pepper Potts, Kelly's legacy would have been divided up by the group of vampires.

With the virtues of those vampires, it would be a great mercy to leave this three-story building to Arryn.

Not to mention any legacy.

And the reason why Iryn, who is an orphan, can still study in one of the top colleges and universities in New York such as Midtown High School is also related to Pepper's great efforts.

After recalling Pepper's relationship with his predecessor, Erin's eyes lit up, and it seemed that there was another way.

Without concealment, Erin recounted everything that happened today to Pepper Potts in detail.

"What ······"

After listening to Aylin's description, Pepper Potts's face changed.

Originally, she thought that Erin had reached puberty, and went to the bar ghost with that fox friend, or dated the girl and spent the night outside.

Pepper didn't say much about that kind of thing, only told Erin to pay attention to safety and not to cause death.

After all, she was also young.

But who knew that Erin's experience last night was much more exciting than she imagined.

Kidnap.

Gangsters.

The police.

Dead person.

When these elements are gathered together, they can all go to shoot a youth idol drama.

After quickly realizing the potential danger, Pepper Potts immediately pulled Erin and said solemnly: "Leave this matter to me, I'll solve it, don't go home these days, go to live with me for a few days." ”

Hearing this, Erin shook his head, "Aunt Pepper, I'm already grateful for your help, and as for me, I won't go back with you." ”

Pepper Potts lives in a predominantly white, middle-class neighborhood with much better security than Chinatown, but it is also limited.

If Arryn stays with him, he can't be guaranteed much in terms of safety, and it will even involve Pepper Potts.

That's not what Erin wants.

When Pepper Potts heard this, he thought that Erin didn't want to leave his house, so he put his hands on Erin's shoulders, and analyzed the pros and cons of Erin in a serious tone: "If it's really like what you said, that group of kidnappers has actually been eyeing you for a long time, and it's not safe for you to stay here alone until the matter is resolved, Erin." ”

"Believe me, when the time comes, you just need to stay at Aunt Pepper's house for a few days like you did when you were a child, and when the matter is settled, Auntie will send you back."

Without waiting for Pepper Potts to finish speaking, Erin spoke again: "I know, Aunt Pepper, I don't want to trouble you, I will find a place to hide these days, Chinatown is very big and xenophobic, that group of outsiders, it's not easy to find me here, don't worry, Aunt Pepper, I will protect myself." ”

"Moreover, the New York Police Department is not vegetarian, and those people kidnapped the police chief's daughter, and now they may not even be able to protect themselves, but they may not necessarily think of me."

After saying that, Erin showed a gentle smile to Pepper Potts: "Of course, the school still needs Aunt Pepper to help me call and ask for a leave." ”
