The police arrived quickly, but there was a reason for that.

"Captain, that's right, this guy should have been responsible for the robbery of the convenience store two hours ago." One of the policemen shouted excitedly after turning the middle-aged man who fell on the ground over. The other two policemen shouted They also gathered around.The last policeman present, who was giving a statement to Peter, raised his eyebrows with a look of surprise on his face.

"Wait, I need to collect my thoughts. You mean, he has already pulled out a gun."

"Well, he has already pulled out a gun." Peter sat on a chair that was turned out casually, his body trembling from time to time.

"Then he put down his gun, giving you the chance to knock him unconscious." The policeman's tone gradually became sharper.

"Well, I asked him not to shoot." Peter was a little speechless. Naturally, he couldn't reveal his special abilities casually.But my experience just now suddenly had a pretty big loophole.

"Then he removed the gun."

"Well, then he moved the muzzle of the gun." Peter could only bite the bullet and continue.

The policeman gave Peter a meaningful look, then wrote something in his notebook, and the scene suddenly fell into silence.

"Well, I won't tell you. You are the luckiest guy I have ever seen in recent years, and you are also probably the stupidest guy." He pointed at the middle-aged man who was just starting to wake up. "This guy just robbed a convenience store two hours ago. Just because he had less than four thousand dollars, he shot and killed the store owner. So he actually stayed at the last moment."

"Of course." The policeman shook the notebook in his hand. "It's not all about your luck. There was slight internal bleeding, two fractures, and at least ten stitches on his face, but you yourself are relatively fine. And according to what you just said, You were still attacked by surprise. As a 16-year-old boy, don’t you need to explain this kind of achievement?”

Peter lowered his head and remained silent.

The policeman shook his head: "Forget it, I don't want to pursue you for anything. After all, the guy lying on the ground is the criminal, and you are just acting in self-defense. Just remember, no matter how powerful you think you are , Don’t risk such dangerous things by yourself. Just leave it to us professionals. You are still young, and it is not worth losing your life for this matter."

The policeman closed his notebook and stuffed it back into his bag. It seemed that the recording was finally over.He then took out another pamphlet and handed it to Peter.

"This is the Victim Counseling Handbook. Most of the information you need is in it. If you need psychological counseling, it also has good suggestions. There is one more thing." The policeman took out his business card and stuffed it into Peter's handbook. in hands. "If you need any help, you can give me a call. You have done us a big favor, and I will never forget this favor."

Peter nodded repeatedly and glanced at the postcard in his hand.Captain George Stacey seems to be a little boss.He finally let out a breath in his heart, but the next second he was mentioned again.The door to the warehouse was opened, and old Jimmy, still in his pajamas, rushed in.

"It seems that the boss here is also here. Well, I hope the insurance of this store is comprehensive enough." Officer Stacey looked indifferent.

Peter looked around.Smashed glass and several boxes fell to the floor.The most serious thing was probably the cabinet that was knocked over, with the remains of several valuable electrical appliances buried underneath. Suddenly, I felt that it was a fait accompli that I was fired.

Looking at old Jimmy walking towards him with a frown on his face, Peter felt that his recent luck was simply terrible.

However, to his surprise, Jimmy rushed forward and grabbed Peter first, looked around at his body, and only turned to talk to the police officers after confirming that he was not hurt.There seemed to be no intention of blaming him at all.

Maybe it's just that he doesn't want to get angry in front of outsiders.Peter thought pessimistically.The damage to the entire warehouse was at least five thousand US dollars. Jimmy, a tough guy who didn't have anything to lose, couldn't just finish it off so easily.

But Jimmy sent Peter home without even a word of rebuke.

In the next few classes, Peter felt obvious changes.Peter is no longer solely responsible for the tedious chores that Peter would receive every time before, and the level of hard work at work has been reduced to a very reasonable level.Although Jimmy and Peter didn't talk much after that night, Peter could clearly feel the change in Jimmy's attitude towards him.

"Am I getting through this?" Peter thought happily.

But what Peter gained that night was far beyond that: at that moment of life and death, the power in his body completely exploded, revealing his secret to Peter.

Although Peter did not know the name of this ability, Peter had given it one of his own.

原力

The reason is simple, it is so similar to the mysterious energy used by the Jedi in Star Wars.

This snake oil-like ability can be used in almost every aspect

helpful.Can enhance one's computing power, enhance one's physical abilities, heal wounds, read other people's thoughts, and even control the other person's mind.A powerful enough Jedi can turn tens of thousands of tons of spaceships into wreckage using only the Force, and take the lives of enemies thousands of miles away.

However, the signature ability of the Force lies in its ability to predict the future.Jedi Knights can predict every move of their enemies and can even block the bullets of hundreds of enemies with just one sword.

Of course, Peter's current ability to achieve the above feats is still far from enough.He can only read the thoughts of those who are not determined, and to control the enemy, he needs the other party to completely trust him, or the other party's own will is already in chaos.He could only remove some bruises when treating wounds. As for telekinesis, he could hardly even levitate a piece of paper in the air.

But that magical ability to predict is still quite useful, at least in the previous two fights.Now Peter seems to have broken some mysterious barrier and is able to freely use a small amount of Force abilities in his daily life, which at least saves him from falling a few times a week.And the ability to use the Force to strengthen one's body can also make the effect of one's exercise more obvious.Now, with the blessing of the Force, he can run five kilometers in half an hour, and can do more than [-] push-ups in a row.Not as good as the top athletes in school, but still pretty good among his peers.

Of course, he didn't share any of these things around.It's a bit too scary to see such progress in three and a half weeks.

As time flew by, the date agreed with Mary came quickly.

Saturday finally arrived, and Peter finally dug out a set of clothes in his cabinet that he could wear out, and stuffed the ticket that Mary handed him yesterday into his pocket.Looking at the reflection in the mirror, and then taking a look at his wrinkled clothes, Peter felt for the first time that the little salary he earned from Jimmy was not enough.

I have taken leave from Jimmy Old today. After that incident, he became quite easy to talk to and even asked Peter if he wanted to use his paid vacation.When Uncle Ben and Aunt May heard that it was Mary who invited them, they even agreed.Aunt May was particularly excited about this, having wanted to introduce Mary next door to Peter for so long that she had turned a blind eye to the fact that they had attended the same school for the past three and a half years.

"Oh, is it the little Mary next door? Wait a minute. You can't go out in such sloppy clothes. Let me go to my room and look through it to see if there are any formal clothes that fit you."

In this regard, Aunt Mei is always the most enthusiastic person.Peter, with a wry smile on his face, could only try to tell her how stupid it was to wear an old-fashioned suit to a rock concert.In the end, Peter even used a little hint of the Force to resolve the matter.

Although he always felt that it was a bit immoral to use the effect of suggestion on his relatives, he still couldn't help it when he encountered a situation that he couldn't solve.No way, this ability is really useful.

The band's performance was at 07:30 in the evening, held at a well-known local bar.After showing his invitation, the security guard at the door let him in with a suspicious expression and repeatedly emphasized that he could not buy any alcoholic drinks in the bar.In the end, he even went to the bar to give instructions.

Peter stepped into the bar. As soon as he opened the door, the tsunami of laughter and noise made Peter stagger.The bar was already crowded, which somewhat surprised Peter and made him a little uneasy.He felt like everyone was looking at him, asking the same question: Who let this little kid in?

Peter felt his legs were a little weak, but he couldn't find any corner where there were few people.At this moment, someone patted him on the back.He looked back and saw that it was Mary, carrying her electric guitar on her back.If I remember correctly, this was her 15th birthday present.

"You're already here" Mary looked quite excited and grabbed Peter's hand.The jade-like smoothness in her hands made Peter's heart tremble, but Peter could clearly feel her nervousness from her hands that were soaked with cold sweat.

"It seems there will be a lot of audience tonight."

"Of course our band is quite famous around here." Mary pointed behind her.

Peter looked behind her, and sure enough he saw three people walking around the corner, each carrying their own instruments, and the crowd around them also took the initiative to make way for them, some of whom were obviously very familiar. Go up to them, give them high fives, and chat with them with a smile.The leading girl looked in the direction of Peter and the others and waved hello.The girl looked somewhat similar to Mary. She also had long fiery red hair and was wearing a leather jacket and black jeans.But this neutral dress makes her look even more charming.

This is like Mary growing up, Peter thought to himself.

"That's my cousin," Mary greeted, and her cousin waved in that direction.

"The performance is about to start. I'm going to go backstage to prepare first." Mary adjusted the position of the guitar on her back, and Peter also made a cheering gesture.

"come on"

"definitely"
