Chapter 219 Gwen's Death
"Peter? Are you listening?"
"Yes, I'm here."
Peter stood in the woods, talking to Gwen on his cell phone.
After listening to Gwen's story about how Spider Silk and others lost the bracelet device, he was a little surprised.
Are these people so careless?
"Maybe we can ask Reed to help, even though his previous time machine was messed up."
Gwen hesitated and spoke to Peter on her phone.
"You know him well, so I wanted to ask your opinion."
Peter looked at the foggy woods around him, stretched out his right hand, and the black alien spider slowly climbed up his arm, and was then absorbed by his black exoskeleton armor.
"I'm going to teach this naughty kid a lesson."
Peter waited until the alien spider submerged into his body and then said to Gwen on the other end of the phone.
He was indeed about to hang up the naughty kid who had tricked him and beat him up.
But because of an accident, he came here.
After experiencing the battle with the lizardmen in the abandoned underground tunnel, Peter did not stay at the scene.
After the tower collapsed, he disappeared from the sight of Captain America and George Stacey.
But he stayed at the scene, and an alien spider was born in his body.
The alien spider followed the scent of the lizard man and finally came here.
Then these lizard men disappeared into the woods, making it impossible for the alien spiders to continue tracking them.
That's why he's where he is now.
He's not here for the little naughty guy, he just wants to see what kind of organization this so-called "spider thread" is?
Gwen didn't know Peter was outside now, she thought he was still grounded at home.
"Okay, although I also want to grab this naughty kid's ears, there's no need to hang him up and beat him."
Gwen exhaled and asked Peter: "When can you come over? It's better if we go together. After all, you are familiar with each other."
"It might take a while."
Peter hesitated and said to Gwen: "Is it okay later? I have to deal with some things of my own."
"certainly."
Gwen shrugged, "They shouldn't be too anxious now, after all it has happened."
After hanging up the phone, Gwen said to the three people who were looking at her eagerly: "I'm sorry, I think... what I said is not quite right?"
"It's true that I'm not in a hurry."
Jessica sat down on the chair.
"We can study who can steal things under our noses."
Shadow Spider-Man wanted to pick up the beer he just bought, but when he saw several people looking at him, he had to put it down.
“Wouldn’t you try the Budweiser on sale at the supermarket?”
"no thanks."
Spider Silk waved his hand and turned the topic to the suspect, "I was already led away at that time. That guy must have been hiding from your perception."
"Yes, maybe the other person is also a person with super powers and is good at hiding."
Jessica rubbed her chin and said: "Maybe the thief is a Spider-Man like us, so he can deceive our Spider-Sense. At least the other party's perception is similar to ours, so he will not be discovered. "
"spider?"
Gwen frowned when Jessica mentioned spider-like abilities.
In this world, only myself and Peter are Spider-Man, is there anyone else?
"Anyway, we have met our opponent. If that guy uses our bracelet to travel to other parallel universes, he might cause some trouble."
Jessica sighed and sat down.
Then she unceremoniously took the Budweiser beer from Shadow Spider-Man's hand and drank it "gu dong gu dong".
"Are you sure this won't cause harm to your body? I mean... to the baby in your belly."
Gwen glanced at Jessica's belly worriedly.
She was worried that such overeating would be harmful to the baby.
"I'm not that fragile. You have to know, Gwen, that pregnant women have a better appetite. This is a normal way of life."
"All right."
Gwen did not continue on the topic.
After a few minutes.
Shadow Spider and Spider-Man returned to their rooms, while Gwen hesitantly stayed in Jessica's room.
"Well, can I ask you some questions?"
Gwen has been holding something back in her heart, and now she wants to ask it out.
Otherwise she felt like she would be suffocated to death.
"About what?"
At this time, Spider-Woman was reading a newspaper.
On the reverse side of the newspaper was a picture of the Brooklyn Bridge.
Gwen looked at the Brooklyn Bridge in the newspaper and asked Jessica, "Do you know what she looks like?"
"Her? Who do you mean?"
Jessica put down the newspaper.
"Another me, the me in your world."
Jessica thought for a while and said to Gwen: "To be honest, I don't know. After all, it may have been too long ago. I don't know much about it."
She didn't tell the truth.
In fact, Jessica has some understanding of what happened to Gwen Stacy in her own world.
"real?"
Gwen looked at Jessica with burning eyes.
Feeling a little uncomfortable being looked at like this, Jessica was quickly defeated.
She didn't want to deceive this girl whom she liked very much.
"Okay, Gwen, this is a story about a bridge."
Jessica sighed and turned the newspaper over so that the Brooklyn Bridge faced her.
"It was a tragedy. On this bridge, the Green Goblin pushed the Gwen Stacy of our world down. Peter wanted to catch her with spider silk, but the huge inertia of the fall and Spider-Man's spider silk were powerful The upward pulling force and the difference in force caused the tragedy. "
Gwen was stunned when she heard the way Gwen died.
"This is also the pain of Peter Parker's life."
Jessica looked at Gwen, "Every Spider-Man has a painful memory, but they all take responsibility. When the inheritance family is in crisis, Spider-Man from each universe steps up."
Gwen took a deep breath, she had not yet recovered from the news that Gwen was dead.
"You haven't experienced this yet, Gwen. Maybe you can learn from Peter when you get to our universe."
After a while, Gwen raised her head and said to Jessica: "Is she dead? I. I have always thought that if there was another universe, I would live a normal life in that universe, fall in love and get married to Peter, such a life What kind of life would it be like, I often think about it, but will Gwen Stacy really not live her life normally? "
Gwen felt a little sad for herself in the other universe.
"Hey, listen, Gwen, honey."
Jessica reached out and held Gwen's right hand, "I have been doing this for a long time. Believe me, normal life does not exist. Another Gwen, her death was unfortunate, but it did not end because of the perfect life like in the novel. But because she has experienced all the good things and mistakes, she has no regrets in her life.”
Jessica expressed her views as a spiritual mentor.
"I understand you, my dear, I understand the dream of having a simple life, and you can understand it just by looking at me."
Putting her arm around Gwen's shoulders, Jessica continued:
"But believe me, when you encounter difficulties, when you are not sure that you can do things, you are actually figuring out who you are and what the meaning of your life is."
“But take it day by day and try your best, that’s what we’re about.”
"Thank you, Jessica."
After a moment, Gwen reached out and hugged Jessica.
At this moment, she felt that Jessica felt a bit like a mother and a sister to her.
Although the two have known each other for a short time, this feeling is particularly strong.
"Crack!"
Peter turned off his phone and put it away.
His eyes looked at the fog that was getting thicker and thicker around him.
"Bang!"
Suddenly!
A spider's thread shot from the misty woods.
Peter immediately raised his arms.
His skeletal arms were in front of him, blocking the incoming spider silk.
"prick!"
Peter ripped the webbing off his arm.
Spider-Man?
He really didn't expect to meet a guy who could shoot spider silk here.
"Bang!"
The next second, he stepped on the ground and moved forward, and in an instant he arrived at the place where the attack came from.
The other party was wearing a red and black uniform and had a stern face. He looked like the kind of guy who was serious about his words.
"Who are you?"
Peter didn't attack him directly, but frowned and asked him.
"I'm Agent Jesse."
The other party did not hide his name, but said it directly.
"This is no place for you, Spider-Man, get out of here."
