Marvel's The Force Awakens
Chapter 25: Red Mask
On the afternoon of the next day, Peter met Mary.
The midterm exam has just ended and students are enjoying their vacation.Peter came to school just to use the gym again.Yesterday the coach gave him a gym card, allowing him to come in and use the equipment here at any time even when the gym is closed.This is generally a treatment reserved for seeded players on sports teams.
When he opened the door to the gym, Peter saw a familiar figure flash past in the second-floor window of the teachers' building.
"Mary" Peter said to himself.
He visited Mary's house many times last week, but he didn't know whether it was because there was no one at home or Mary's father was drunk again, but no one came to open the door.Peter also sneaked in to investigate, but there was no one in the huge house.Everything in the entire house was gone, leaving only the most basic furniture.
The confused Peter finally got some information from Uncle Ben through listening tests: Mary's house has been advertised on the real estate website, and they want to sell the house.
"Philip has lived in that house for more than ten years. It is indeed a pity to sell it suddenly." Uncle Ben took a sip of coffee and continued to read his newspaper.Aunt May, who was taking dinner out of the oven, also joined in the conversation.
"I heard they are asking for 80 yuan, which is not a small amount of money." She placed the plate in front of Uncle Ben, and then set the knife and fork for him. "A house that has been in disrepair for so many years can be sold for so much... I'm afraid our house could be worth 90. If we had so much..."
"Nine hundred and sixty thousand, Louise has called me twice. Honey, we've lived in this house for 96 years. No matter how much they offer, I don't want to sell my home."
"Of course, I'm just saying it." Aunt Mei smiled and kissed Uncle Ben on the forehead.
This was the first time Peter had seen Mary in more than two weeks.After locking the gym door again, Peter quickly ran up to the second floor of the teachers' building.Mary sat on a bench outside the vice-principal's office.When she heard Peter coming upstairs, she looked in Peter's direction.There was surprise on her face at first, and then it turned into a smile.
"Are you okay?" Peter took a few breaths and walked to Mary.
"Long time no see, Peter." She stood up and gave Peter a big hug.After letting go, Peter panicked slightly.
"It's great that you're safe now. I mean, you disappeared, but you're fine now, and I was worried before...so." He stuttered a little, and his words became garbled after his throat.Mary laughed.
"I understand what you mean. It doesn't matter, I'm fine now, fine." Mary combed the hair that had been spread out just now and smoothed it back behind her shoulders. "To be honest, I still don't understand what happened. It feels like a dream."
"What happened?" Peter tried to pretend that he didn't know about it, but Mary smiled and shook her head.
"It's too long to tell, and you won't believe it. I'll tell you later."
Peter didn't know whether to ask further.There was silence again, and Mary only stared at her hands.Peter suddenly thought of a question.
"Why did you come to school today? Today is a holiday."
"Mom is helping me go through some procedures. I will transfer to another school soon." She raised her head, but Peter still didn't react.
"You're going to transfer to another school?" He asked twice in a row. "Which school are you going to transfer to?"
"Over there in Boston." She raised her head. "I'm going to live with my mom for a while. We'll be moving back to New York early next year."
"Then...you will come back"
"Of course I will. I was planning to go to your house tomorrow to say goodbye."
"I was shocked... I thought you would never come back." Peter patted his chest, and Mary couldn't say anything for a moment.
At this moment, the door to the vice-principal's office behind Mary was pushed open, and the vice-principal and a middle-aged woman who looked somewhat similar to Mary came out.Very different from Mary's father's slovenliness.Although the middle-aged woman in front of her is a bit old, her neutral suit makes her look quite concise and energetic.
"Hi, Peter. I didn't expect to see you in school today." The vice-principal adjusted his glasses and recognized this top guy who gave many teachers headaches at a glance.Peter also waved his hand awkwardly without saying anything.The middle-aged woman held Peter's hand.
"Peter Parker was a little boy when I last saw you." Mary's mother said with a smile. "We haven't seen each other for more than three years. Thank you for always taking photos of Mary.
Gu. "
"Uh, no, Mary has been taking care of me." Peter's face turned red unconsciously. "She's a very good person."
"Your mouth is sweeter than before." Mary's mother smiled and took Mary's hand.
"Okay Mary, we have to leave. There are still many things to deal with this afternoon." She pulled Mary, said goodbye to the vice principal, and turned to leave.Mary broke free from her hand and came up to hug Peter again.
"See you in half a year." She said in his ear.
"See you in half a year." He replied.
Watching Mary's figure disappear at the end of the corridor, Peter felt a little dazed.It took him a while to react and then walked downstairs.
I haven’t done today’s exercise yet~
The four-day holiday passed by in a flash, and Peter once again visited the Academy for Lost Children, but this time there was no suitable task for him at Weasel.
"Look, there really aren't many completely clean jobs in this line of work. If you want to be able to feed yourself, it's easier to get your hands dirty." Weasel persuaded Peter in an experienced tone, but Peter didn't agree with it at all. Bird him.
"By the way, how much money do I have left from my last mission?"
The weasel took out his account book and started flipping through it. "Well, the commission of 796, minus the [-]% agency fee, plus the milk money you paid for the last two times... you still have [-] US dollars."
"I didn't drink that milk at all," Peter protested. "I can't drink that milk either. Besides, what the hell is the milk here and why is it so expensive?"
"If you want to talk to me, you have to buy a drink first." Weasel said matter-of-factly. "The extra money is naturally my service fee. My service is not as bad as those of five-star hotels. They charge more than me."
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this topic." Peter stopped the conversation from continuing. "Let's talk about my account. I want to exchange something."
"Exchange something, that little money." The weasel looked at Peter with suspicion. "The little money you have seems not enough to exchange for anything better."
Peter laughed behind his mask, but Weasel quickly interrupted. "Don't laugh, you can barely accept it when you talk normally. Your smile, combined with this mask, is very eerie."
"Back to the topic, if I remember correctly, the money in my account above should be enough to buy this thing."
Weasel turned out the form and placed it in front of Peter.After scanning around, relying on his memory, it didn't take Peter long to find what he was looking for.
A cracker specifically designed to crack the frequency of police radio stations and a matching small radio cost a total of $670.
"This thing" Weasel was a little surprised. "Are you planning a big case? Warn me in advance. If you are caught, if you try to confess anyone here, your end will only be worse."
"Aren't you just a middleman?" Peter's mouth curled up under his mask. "What I use it for seems to be none of your business."
"Okay, okay." Weasel raised his hands. "It's true that I'm nosy."
Two days later, at two o'clock in the morning, outside a closed supermarket in Manhattan, New York.
The two thieves climbed out of the smashed window, holding several handfuls of banknotes in their pockets and several mobile phone boxes in their arms.They accidentally triggered the alarm bell in the office just now, so they could only stop their search and leave before the police arrived.
Wearing a mask and a black and red hoodie, Peter stepped out of the shadows, blocking their retreat.
"If I keep all the things you stole now, I might be gentler later." Peter moved his hands and feet and said calmly.
The two thieves looked at each other and flashed their eyes fiercely.They put down the mobile phones in their arms, pulled out the butterfly knives in their pockets, and rushed towards Peter.
The brutal one-sided massacre that followed does not require much description.In just 2 minutes, Peter's two opponents had already fallen to the ground.When the police arrived, the two poor thieves' clothes had been stripped down to only a pair of underwear, and they were tied to a lamppost.
George Stacey tore a piece of card from the back of one of the robbers.This is a j of diamonds, and there is a line of small words written on the back of the card.
"Your good friend, stay in red mask~"
This really feels like a prank.George shook his head, put the card into the evidence bag, and threw it to the police trainee in the team.
