It was a dark night, and the moon covered with clouds in the sky did not illuminate the world with its brightness.
Arthur stopped the car not far from Gwen’s house.
"You don’t need to walk ho, Arthur"
"If my dad sees you, he’s going to ask a lot of questions."
"Hehe~ Maybe he’ll interrogate you like a criminal."
Arthur smiled understandingly.
He would also do this if his daughter showed up at ho accompanied by a guy.
Before getting out of the car, Gwen kissed Arthur on the cheek.
"Try to hold on a little next ti, my legs are still a little shaky."
"What will I say to my mother if she asks? Know that she is a very perceptive woman."
Gwen said with a cute pout.
Arthur smiled softly, he placed his hand on her cheek and pulled her in for a kiss.
"I can’t promise anything, Miss Stacy." He spoke with a smile as Gwen laughed lightly and got out of the car.
Seeing that she was already at the door, Arthur started the car and drove away.
Shortly after Arthur left.
In an alley not far away, a silhouette walked out of an alley, revealing itself to be a humanoid lizard over 2.5 ters tall, he was wearing tattered pants and an equally dirty and tattered white coat, he looked towards the Gwen’s house.
After a while, the figure disappeared into the dark alley.
anwhile, Gwen returned ho to find George sitting on the couch reading sothing intently.
Without making a sound, she silently walked to George’s side.
And what she saw was beyond her expectations.
George was actually reading "A Song of Ice and Fire."
And judging by the cover, this was the second book.
After watching George carefully read the book, Gwen whispered, "Dad, I’m back."
"Gah!"
As soon as George was startled, he turned his head and saw Gwen smiling at him.
He closed the book imdiately.
"I..."
"I just want to see what kind of books you usually read. I wanted to find sothing we could talk about."
Gwen smiled, "If you enjoyed reading it, you can continue, I won’t make fun of it because Arthur’s books are really good."
George wanted to nod, but his pride stopped him from doing so.
He could only pretend to be solemn and said, "Well, it’s really good."
"He’s a great writer."
Gwen noticed, but didn’t say anything.
At that mont, Helen ca out of the kitchen, her face seed to be much rosier and more youthful.
When she saw Gwen, a trace of disappointnt flashed deep in her eyes.
Gwen didn’t notice this, but George did.
At that mont he couldn’t help but shiver rembering what he went through last night.
If Gwen spends the night away from ho in the future, he should go to the police station to work overti or sothing.
And even if there is no overti, he will trade shifts with other people.
He was afraid his bones wouldn’t hold up if he had to do all this exercise again.
Helen’s eyes beca a little sharp as she noticed the way Gwen walked.
"Why are you walking like that, Gwen?" She asked with knowing eyes.
"N-it was nothing, I just hurt myself a little today, it’s nothing serious..." Gwen said as she deftly walked quickly to the dining room.
Helen chuckled lightly at Gwen’s la excuse as she too followed her into the dining room.
She got close to Gwen’s ear and whispered.
"You have to bring him here later. I’m really curious to know what kind of guy managed to steal my tomboy daughter’s heart."
"What!? N-it’s nothing like that mom!" Gwen spoke in panic.
"Fufufu~ There’s no way I’m wrong, Gwen. A mother’s extincts are very good, you know?" Helen spoke as she sat down next to Gwen.
"Erm... It’s just... Ahhh~ Alright... I admit defeat." Gwen tried to think of so excuse, but when she saw Helen’s smiling face, she realized there was no point in trying to lie.
"I won’t tell your father, but I want to et my son-in-law as soon as possible." Helen smiled and got up from her chair.
(Look what you put through Arthur!!)
(She noticed everything!!)
Gwen put her hands on her face as she scread inwardly, blaming Arthur for being a beast.
Shortly after Helen ca back and put the food on the table, George arrived in the dining room and sat down while looking at the awkward atmosphere between Gwen and Helen.
Gwen seed to exude frustration while Helen had a happy smile on her face.
(What happened to these two?)
He decided to ignore this and started eating.
Although the food wasn’t as good as Arthur’s, Gwen really liked the food her mother made.
The family ate happily, George watched the live news on TV while he ate.
It didn’t take long for reports of Spider-Woman to erge.
George wanted to say sothing.
But after thinking for a while he gave up.
It’s best not to take work matters ho.
However, in the middle of the al, George’s phone rang, and he picked it up and saw that it was a call from a colleague at the police station.
As soon as he picked it up, an anxious voice ca from the other side: "Captain, sothing urgent happened at Empire State University."
"What did you say!?"
George’s face turned ugly when he heard the situation report.
Turning to look at Gwen, "Gwen, did you et Peter today?"
George also knew Peter, after all the boy was Gwen’s childhood friend.
George really liked Peter’s stubbornness.
George wanted to take him to the police academy.
Gwen, who was eating, didn’t realize the seriousness of the matter.
"Well, I t him when I went to class in the morning."
"What happened, dad?"
"Sothing serious happened to him."
"To be precise, sothing happened to him, to Dr. Curt Connors, and to the entire laboratory..."
------
Empire State University.
A yellow banner was erected outside a laboratory to prevent onlookers from entering.
anwhile, a group of fully ard police officers entered to search, and so officers were surrounding a man in a lab coat, questioning sothing.
At that mont, a black sedan stopped on the other side of the lane at this ti.
George and Gwen got out of the car.
The police officer responsible for security saw that George had arrived and imdiately raised the banner, allowing him entry.
He also knew, Gwen.
In fact, most NYPD officers have known Gwen since she was little, they’ve watched her grow up.
Gwen looked around and imdiately walked towards the man wearing a white coat.
The man seed to be in a state of denial.
What was even more surprising was that one of his sleeves was empty; anyone who looked would see that the man was missing an arm.
Gwen approached him.
"Dr. Connors, are you okay?"
Peter Parker’s ntor, a renowned genetic researcher, Curt Connors.
"Oh? Gwen, you’re here too."
Connors also noticed George behind Gwen: "Captain Stacy."
"Dr. Connors, can you tell what exactly happened here?"
Regarding George’s question, Connors was silent.
The police officer next to him handed George a docunt at this ti: "Captain, here’s what we got."
"But the situation is kind of strange."
After reading the docunt in his hand, George’s expression also changed.
"It’s all my fault, it was because of that happened to Peter!"
"I shouldn’t have left him alone in the laboratory, I should have taken him with ..."
Connors began to bla himself deeply.
Gwen imdiately realized that sothing bad had happened to Peter.
Just as she was about to continue interrogating Connors, George handed Gwen the docunt in her hand.
Naturally, only police officers could see this docunt, but with Gwen being the captain’s daughter, she had her privileges.
After reading it, Gwen finally understood what was going on.
It turns out that the people at Oscorp Industries were dissatisfied with the progress of Connors’ research, and tore up the contract.
Therefore, all financial support was withdrawn. According to the contract, all experint data and equipnt used were to be taken back.
During this process, both Peter and Connors fought to get everything back, but it was all to no avail.
The people at Oscorp Industries insisted on removing all data related to the experints.
He had already achieved incredible results in animal tests, but had not yet done any tests on humans.
Not wanting to end up like this, Peter took one of the vials and injected himself.
When Connors returned, the situation was already a ss.
And in the ruins, he saw a figure resembling a giant lizard entering the sewers...
According to Connors’ description and the monitoring data in the laboratory.
The humanoid lizard is Peter Parker...

Hey!! How are you? I just want to let you know that these days I ended up not being able to do any updates on Patreon or WN, because I had to resolve a legal issue. Next week I will need to go there again, so I want to make it clear that if I end up not doing the update on any day next week it will be because of this.
Give so power stones there you go~😉
