Chapter 186 The Gears of Destiny Turn

Tony looked at the sunlight outside the window. "I admit this is indeed complicated, but I believe you can help me block them."

"The most important thing is trust, Tony, you have to tell me what you've been through so that I can help you."

Obadiah walked to Tony's bedside and gently patted his hand.

"Okay, I have to go. Take good care of yourself and leave the company's affairs to me."

As he said this he walked towards the door and prepared to leave.

"etc."

Tony suddenly called out to Obaday, "Any news about Spider-Man?"

Obaday was stunned for a moment, not knowing why he suddenly asked this.

"Not yet."

After Obaday left, Tony Stark dragged his body and leaned on the pillow.

The scene in the underground world of the copper mine stayed with him for a long time.

He developed an irrepressible curiosity about Spider-Man's identity.

Calling up the computer system of this special ward, he operated the virtual keyboard with his fingers and began to enter information about Spider-Man.

While operating the virtual keyboard, he took a deep breath and felt a piercing pain in his chest, which almost made him faint again.

"Fuck, damn Danforth!"

He couldn't help but curse at the other person again.

After collecting all the information, he began to build a retrieval matching model.

He hopes to investigate Spider-Man's true identity.

Anyway, this bastard has saved me several times and I owe him a lot.

And he wanted to know, could Spider-Man really stop those alien monsters in the underground world from crawling up to the ground?
Forest Hills, Parker House.

Peter had a hearty breakfast.

From the kitchen came the sound of a spoon stirring something in a cup.

The hot oil in the pan was hissing and smoking, and the sound of forks scraping against plates and dishes could be heard.

Gwen kept her head down, staring at the pile of things in front of her.

Two eggs fried soft-boiled, buttermilk pancakes, four sausage slices, and whole-wheat toast.

On a separate plate in front of Peter was a toasted cinnamon bun.

Cinnamon buns slathered with maple syrup.

To be honest, this was the first time she saw Peter eat so much.

She was very worried about Peter's absence last night.

Although Peter secretly went out at night and hid it from Aunt May and Uncle Ben, he couldn't hide it from her as Spider-Woman.

Did Peter secretly do something big last night, which is why he is so tired?
"Peter," Gwen said, looking at Peter as he ate, "you're eating like a lumberjack."

Peter, who was full and feeling relaxed, raised his head and looked at Gwen.

"Really? I don't know why I have a particularly good appetite today."

Peter popped a yolk and let the overflowing yellow liquid join the maple syrup surrounding them.

Gwen didn't believe his lies, "You didn't even eat when school started."

“People’s appetites change.”

"It's people who change, not appetites."

Gwen glanced at Aunt May who was busy in the kitchen, then sat closer to Peter and said, "Did you save the world last night?"

"more or less."

Peter looked up at Gwen and said, "Our Lord Mayor should give me a medal."

“I haven’t seen any news about you.”

Gwen looked like she had seen through me. "So don't try to hide it from me, Peter. We are the only ones who know each other's secrets."

"Ok."

Peter put down his fork and said to Gwen, "You really want to know."

"of course."

Peter said seriously, "I joined Tony Stark's expedition last night."

"But that's impossible. He didn't invite you. I mean..."

Gwen, whose voice was a little loud, immediately lowered her voice and whispered, "I mean, he didn't invite Spider-Man."

"I can go without an invitation."

Peter said to Gwen, "You know the source of my ability may be related to the Queen. The Queen may have sensed something last night, so I followed the Queen to the entrance of the copper mine."

Peter briefly told Gwen what happened in the underground world.

But the story of how he finally controlled the Alien Queen was hidden, as was the matter of the Dark Book.

While listening, Gwen kept her mouth wide open with an incredible expression.

"That is to say, the place is now full of aliens."

"Yes."

Gwen immediately showed a worried expression, "What if those aliens crawl up?"

"As long as we keep it closed like before, it should be fine."

"Ugh!"

Gwen sighed in frustration, "You should have dragged me along on adventures like this."

As she was talking about her regrets, Aunt May came over with a tray of food. Gwen immediately stopped her discussion with Peter and sat up straight. "Good morning, Aunt May."

Gwen greets Aunt May in Chinese.

Aunt May looked at Gwen in surprise, "You can actually speak Chinese, Gwen!"

Gwen said proudly, "Peter taught me. He's a Chinese genius, but now I can understand recipes in Chinese restaurants."

Aunt Mei put down the plate and said to Peter in surprise, "It just so happens that Mr. Li is from China. I can take you to meet him someday. Maybe you two can get along well."

Peter was stunned, "Which Mr. Li?"

"Martin Lee, have you forgotten? I am the director of the FEAST charity organization, and I work there."

When Peter heard Aunt May talk about him, he immediately thought of him.

"Well, there will be a chance."

Peter nodded.

If I have time, I would like to meet this fellow villager.

Since today is Saturday, Peter did not go to school after breakfast.

Gwen went to school and practiced with the band.

MJ joined the band, and the band members needed to get back to work with each other.

In Gwen's words, MJ looked like a girl who was very serious about music, so she probably couldn't be lazy in the future.

Peter didn't go to see MJ in this world. At this moment, he was reading the newspaper.

Almost all the newspapers reported that Tony Stark encountered unexpected things during this expedition.

It seemed that the media all wanted to know what exactly happened to him.

But no one from Stark Group has spoken out.

Peter put down the newspaper.

Maybe I should warn Tony Stark and tell him not to bother with the copper mine anymore.

At this time, he didn't know that the other party had already begun to investigate his identity.

After nightfall.

Gwen asked Peter out for dinner.

Outside a Waffle House fast food restaurant, Peter stood on the street holding an umbrella.

It has started raining.

This type of fast food restaurant can be found everywhere in the southern United States. Not only is the restaurant small in appearance, it is also square.

The place is often filled with a noisy atmosphere as diners stuff their mouths with handfuls of hash browns, sausage and the signature waffles.

Gwen arrived quickly in the rain.

"Hey, Peter."

Gwen, who didn't have an umbrella, greeted him.

Gwen's blonde hair was quite wet, and she walked quickly under the umbrella held by Peter.

"Would you like to invite me to dinner here?"

Peter asked her.

The two stood outside the store. It was drizzling and cars were whizzing past.

“The atmosphere in this fast food restaurant is a little bit bad.”

Gwen came here on the recommendation of a friend, but found the environment daunting.

Her face turned red and she felt embarrassed. This was also a very new thing.

Gwen racked her brains to find a witty remark or two to break the awkwardness, but her usual cleverness suddenly disappeared.

She felt like a ship with its anchor pulled out, swaying back and forth, unable to find her center of gravity.

"It's pretty nice here." Peter said nonchalantly.

He thought it was quite lively.

Gwen wanted to get away now, to run as far away as possible.

"Change to another one."

Gwen grabbed Peter's hand, ready to take her boyfriend to a different environment.

This is not a good place for a date.

Just as Gwen was about to pull Peter away, an accident happened.

A bicycle was coming towards them from a distance.

The rider was riding a bicycle with extremely narrow tires and was fully equipped with all kinds of equipment, as if he was specially hired by the bicycle company to do advertising.

Just when the other party was about to arrive, a figure suddenly rushed out.

The black shadow with lightning speed suddenly rushed towards the cyclist.

The dark shadow pulled off the other person's shoulder bag.

Caught off guard, the wheel hit a rock, the rider slammed on the brakes and leaped forward.

At the same time, a sharp car brake sound suddenly sounded, and his butt was hit by the bumper of a car.

The rider's body fell on the hood of the car like a puppet off its strings, and his helmet was thrown out and smashed the windshield.

Gwen witnessed all this happening, so she naturally would not stand idly by.

In a flash, Gwen rushed towards the shadow.
