Chapter 62 - 61: Where did she learn that?
Chapter 62: Chapter 61: Where did she learn that?
Arthur got out of the car with Jean in his arms, Jean was passed out.
Although she is no longer affected by the Phoenix force, after all, the use of her powers just now was still excessive.
It is also necessary to compress that gas and protect everyone present from touching it.
For her, this performance was already very good.
After putting Jean back to bed, Arthur covered her with the quilt. In fact, Arthur could feed Jean a senzu bean now.
This will completely restore her.
But Arthur didn't do that, because Gwen needed to realize her mistake tonight.
Otherwise, she will still make the same mistake when she encounters this kind of situation in the future.
It's okay to be kind.
But not for everyone.
Peter in this state has lost his humanity, Gwen's soft heart could cause disaster for her.
"System, please log in today."

[Double Heavenly Water: The temperature can be adjusted according to the user's needs]
"Hum?"
(Ah~ What the hell... Me and my weird luck...)
How can I win something like that?
Arthur silently stored it in the system space.
There was a sudden noise outside, and Gwen ran from the balcony.
Before she could recount the joy of victory.
She saw Jean lying on the bed, appearing unconscious.
"Arthur, what happened to Jean?"
With Arthur's explanation, Gwen understood everything immediately.
Immediately, his expression fell: "It's all my fault..."
Arthur said a few simple words of comfort and then left the room, leaving Gwen to stand beside Jean.
After leaving the room, Arthur sighed helplessly: "Damn... This is going to be another night sleeping alone."
At this moment, the Red Queen suddenly appeared.
Looking at Arthur with some doubts: [Master, is it comfortable for us to sleep together?]
Although the Red Queen's database holds virtually all of humanity's knowledge, some feelings cannot be described in words.
Neither do the photos.
Movies don't work either.
Arthur's face suddenly froze, and she looked at the red queen.
It seems that self-awareness is not a good thing. If you don't believe me, the current Red Queen will take the initiative to ask him questions.
"Red Queen, don't think too much."
"Remember to pay attention to Jean's physical condition at all times."
Although I just verified that there is no problem with Jean, she is just in a coma, but after all, she still has the Phoenix force in her body.
It's impossible not to keep an eye on her all the time.
[Understood, master.]
Seeing Arthur returning to the room, a confused expression appeared on the Red Queen's face.
Is it really comfortable?
She searched her entire database and although there were many descriptions, she felt nothing.
As a cutting-edge artificial intelligence, a trace of thirst for knowledge began to appear in his eyes.
But soon it disappeared again.
-------
Early the next morning.
Jean woke up from bed and after a night's rest, she was not only better, but even more energetic.
Before Jean could understand what was happening, she felt something pressing down on her.
Turning his head, he saw that Gwen was sleeping next to his bed.
She immediately realized what was happening and was about to cover Gwen with the quilt and get up first.
But Gwen woke up.
Seeing that Jean was fine, Gwen held back her tears and hugged Jean's neck.
In the end, I couldn't help myself: "Jean, I'm sorry."
"Okay, stop it, I'm fine."
"I just used my powers too much."
Arthur, who was preparing breakfast downstairs, heard Gwen crying, but he didn't pay much attention and then smiled slightly.
He believed that after this scare, Gwen would no longer be so merciful.
Having a soft heart often leads to disaster.
For example, in a certain parallel universe, Spider-Man, who had already experienced a cosmic war, ruined everything because of his soft heart.
It's okay to be kind.
But don't be reckless.
That's what Arthur wants to teach Gwen this time.
Half an hour later, Jean came down the stairs with Gwen, whose eyes were red from crying, still wearing her outfit.
Gwen walked up to Arthur with a hurt look and hugged him directly.
As if seeking comfort.
Jean stood in the kitchen doorway and smiled slightly as she looked at Arthur jealously.
Arthur smiled and just patted Gwen on the head, "Are you hungry?"
"Hum!"
"Go and change your clothes first, and then deliver them to the Red Queen. The Red Queen will improve your outfit based on yesterday's battle data."
"Come eat."
Sad girls come and go quickly.
After eating the delicious food, Gwen looked the same happy and excited as before.
She and Jean talked and laughed at the dinner table.
The two women completely ignored Arthur.
After eating, Arthur returned to his room and turned on the computer to continue writing his books.
A short time later, Jean prepared a glass of warm milk and leaned against Arthur's back.
Arthur felt the softness on his back.
He was distracted for a moment, but first he had to resolve the things in front of him.
Jean looked at him for a while and said half-jokingly, "So Arthur, have you decided to turn your books into movies?"
"That..."
In fact, Arthur had completely forgotten about this since the incident with the Kingpin.
And as an X-Man, Jean knows the weight of gold.
"I have this plan, but I haven't found a good partner yet. Do you have any ideas, Jean?"
Jean shook his head, "Just out of curiosity, are you writing A Song of Ice and Fire?"
"Yes, the last part."
"After I finish this part, I'll take a break and spend more time with you and Gwen."
Jean understood the meaning of Arthur's words: "You scoundrel, who wants you to accompany me?"
"It's just that a certain someone always begs me to go slower, but when I go slow she asks me to go fast."
Jean's face quickly blushed after hearing Arthur's words, but she soon thought of a way to restrain Arthur.
After pulling Arthur away, she hid under the computer desk.
"Ohh!"
Arthur froze for a moment.
Where did Jean learn this?
------
Empire State University.
As soon as Gwen entered the campus, someone called out behind her: "Gwen, do you know anything about Peter?"
Behind her, a young man appeared.
"Oh! Harry, I know everything."
Harry Osborn, son of Norman Osborn, friend of Peter.
Harry's face was a little ugly, as if he was explaining, "Actually, I told my father not to cut off Peter's lab funding..."
"But you know how he is..."
Although Harry was Norman Osborn's son, he never really tried to have any conversation with his father.
The only opportunity was to try to help the school organize that exhibition at Oscorp.
But at that time, we can only say that Norman also had the idea of promoting Oscorp to young people.
Gwen also comforted him: "Harry, you are not to blame for this incident."
"I'm going to see Peter later. Are you coming with me?"
Gwen thought for a moment and then nodded.
It was already noon and, at Gwen's request, George drove to the school gate.
Gwen sat in the passenger seat and Harry in the back seat.
George said: "Peter Parker is currently under police surveillance and recovering in hospital."
"By the way, the hospital is part of Oscorp."
George didn't forget to remember Harry in the back seat.
Harry could only smile wryly.
George continued: "It was really thanks to Spider-Woman last night, otherwise we could have been eliminated."
It's not just about him and the police here, it's about the city and maybe the whole world.
After this battle, George also had a much better view of Spider-Woman, at least not as hostile as before.
Along the way, George talked a lot about what happened next.
Soon the three of them arrived at the scene, with George leading the way and definitely no one stopping them.
After arriving at a tightly guarded ward, the two entered together.
Peter was lying in the hospital bed, receiving medical observation, watching his two friends come to see him.
"Gwen, Harry, I..."
For a while, Peter didn't know what to say.
In the end, after the three people in the ward chatted casually, the visit was considered over.
After they left, Harry was about to share his feelings with Gwen.
At the end of the corridor, another figure approached.
"Dad?"
Harry couldn't believe he would see his father, Norman Osborn, there.
George was also wondering why Norman showed up at the hospital.
Even though this is their hospital, as far as he knows, Norman rarely sets foot in these places.
Norman also noticed Harry's figure in the crowd.
He walked over with a hint of displeasure on his face and told George he was there to see Peter.
As for the reason, he said he had met Peter once and admired his intellect.
The reasons were endless, and George had no reason to stop him.
Norman went to Harry's side first and patted him on the shoulder: "I know you're very unhappy right now."
"But there's no need to stay home for so many days, just come home with me later."
After finishing speaking, Norman walked in, not paying attention to Harry, and Harry knew that he wouldn't be able to escape this time.
He could only obediently stand at the door, along with some of Norman's bodyguards.
After Norman entered the room, Peter was also surprised.
"Mr. Norman Osborn, why are you here?
Norman indicated that he was Harry's father and that it was appropriate for his son's friends to come and see him.
After getting closer, Norman continued asking, "Peter, can you tell me in detail how you felt after injecting that serum into yourself?"
"Erm..."
Although Peter didn't know what Norman wanted to do, he still honestly expressed how he felt...
After half an hour.
George, who was outside, became a little suspicious.
Harry and Gwen have a very good relationship with Peter and haven't talked for so long, but why did Norman talk for so long?
"Harry, do your father and Peter know each other?"
"As far as I know, this is the second time they've met."
Harry had a straightforward temperament and had no other ideas, but George felt something was wrong when he heard this.
Just as he was about to open the door and see what the two of them were doing inside.
Norman opened the door and walked out, seeming to sense George's doubts.
Without George asking, he explained, "I talked to Peter about biochemistry."
"You should know that we have a lot to talk about on this subject."
"Let's go, Harry."
George looked at their backs, opened the door and walked in: "Peter, what did Norman talk to you about just now?"
"He asked me how I felt after the mutation. He's also a biologist, so I understand where his curiosity comes from."
Before George had time to think, Peter suddenly asked, "Uncle George, what will happen to me now?"
"I don't know, Peter. I was just in charge of picking you up."
"The rest of the matter is beyond my control and I will not know until you recover from your injuries."
Peter looked at Gwen in the doorway with guilt in his eyes.
"Gwen, I'm sorry."
Gwen smiled slightly: "Peter, welcome back..."

Meanwhile, at a beach house
"My God, what are you doing here, Tony..."
Pepper, who slept with Tony that night, woke up and couldn't find him, so she went to the lab to look for him.
Only to find that the lab had completely changed.
Not to mention the messy pile.
There was still an opening in the wall, anyone who didn't know thought they had come across a house being demolished.
"I was doing a new experiment, don't worry, I've already contacted you to fix this."
"They will be here today..."
As soon as the words fell, JARVIS's voice came: [Sir, the renovation team has arrived.]
"Look, here we go..."
"JARVIS, tell them what to do. I'm taking Pepper somewhere else."
"Tony, I'm afraid I can't right now."
"The company still has a lot of things for me to deal with..."
Tony took Pepper's hand nonchalantly, "I'll give you the day off, I'm the president and I have the final say."
"Other things can wait..."
Everyone knows Tony's character, let them wait obediently.
Otherwise, there is no need to cooperate.
Pepper had no choice but to change her clothes and get into Tony's car. After getting into the car, she still asked, "Tony, where are we going?"
"Do you remember the milk tea I brought last time? Was it good?"
"This is definitely the best drink I've ever had."
Pepper said happily, now that she thinks about that flavor, he still feels a little urge.
Before drinking that milk tea, she basically never thought that there was such a delicious drink in this world.
This was simply beyond his imagination.
"Then I'll take you out for milk tea now..."
"Really?"
"So my rest is meaningful."
"Isn't the meaning of your break to go out with me?"
Tony's rhetorical question left Pepper at a loss for words, and in the end he could only say, "It's the same thing."
"You are very important, but milk tea is better."
"For this reason, I agree!"
Tony immediately went to Arthur's property.
-------
At Stark Industries.
Happy received a message from Tony and Pepper: "It's okay, have fun."
"Leave the business to me and Miss Rushman."
"Have fun, even if you don't go back to the company today, it doesn't matter."
After hanging up the phone, Black Widow, who had just arrived from work, also entered the office and found that Pepper was not there.
"Happy, where is Miss Potts?"
"Oh, she went off with Tony today, and now it's just the two of us here."
"Let's talk and watch movies together."
"Actually, you can rest today."
"Desculpe, Happy."
"I have a lot of paperwork to do. If you have time, go make me some coffee."
"Yes..."
"As a gentleman, I am always at your disposal."
"Please wait."
Happy walks towards the coffee machine, while Black Widow secretly sends the message to SHIELD...
