"Ugh……"

Ethan stood at the door of the bustling Osborne Building, looking melancholy at the various people passing by, and sighed deeply.

[Looking on the bright side, at least Harry's life is not in danger now. Didn't Dr. Gray also say that he will wake up soon? 】Steel comforted.

"Now we can only wait."

Ethan recalled the scene when he went to visit Peter in the morning and the boy blocked the door to prevent him from entering. He could hear his weakness through the door, so he could only leave quickly without disturbing his rest.

Within one day, both gay friends were seriously injured, and even he himself was injured. He felt really depressed and couldn't lift his spirits to do anything.

"Classmate Walker?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Ethan suddenly woke up from his deep thoughts. He turned around and saw Gwen standing behind him handsomely, looking obviously worried:

"What are you doing here?"

"Harry was seriously injured at yesterday's nuclear fusion experiment site, and I came to visit him." Ethan explained.

"What? How could..."

Gwen covered her mouth in surprise and asked worriedly: "Is he okay?"

"It's nothing serious, just rest and rest... Having said that, I just glanced at him through the window, and the doctor didn't let me in." Ethan was a little helpless.

"It's fine."

Gwen's heart dropped, and she watched Ethan struggle for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask:

"Um, do you know what happened to classmate Peter? I haven't been able to contact him since last night."

The vicious and terrifying look while watching the live broadcast last night frightened the whole family. Especially when George, the head of the family, went to the scene due to his duties as the police chief, the fear of losing a loved one at any time was infinitely amplified.

Just when the whole family was gathered in front of the TV to pray that nothing would happen to George, Spider-Man suddenly appeared, pushing forward desperately with his thin figure that was completely invisible in front of the evil spirit, buying time for the others to escape.

But he himself was tortured to death by the evil spirit.

If it hadn't been for another little green giant suddenly appearing at the last moment, fighting off the evil spirit and saving him, Spider-Man's obituary might have been published on today's morning news.

Gwen was worried all night. After confirming that her father was okay, she kept waiting for Peter's reply, but she couldn't wait until dawn. She could only absentmindedly come to the Aoshi Group. She happened to run into Ethan and hurriedly came up to ask for questions. .

Seeing the girl's worried look, Ethan raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but think:

[Okay, Peter, this boy, took down this girl so quickly. His worried expression was not fake. 】

The information gap resulted in the two not knowing that the other knew Peter's secret identity.

This leads to a person who is anxious but only dares to cautiously inquire about the situation of his beloved;

The other side clearly knew this but could only rack his brains to make up excuses to cover up his friend's injury.

Absolutely.

After all, Ethan is a master of lying and not drafting, and he immediately said: "I just went to Peter's house. The two of us went to the Hammer Industrial Technology Exhibition last night, and you know what happened at the scene. The boy is unlucky, he suffered a minor injury, and is currently being held in confinement at home by Aunt Mei."

"?"

Gwen looked at Ethan blankly.

Are we two talking about the same person? ? ?

She was worried about asking questions when her phone suddenly dinged. She subconsciously opened it and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was an apology text message from Peter:

【terribly sorry!I went to Ethan's house to play games last night. I was so immersed in the game that I fell asleep and woke up now. I'm really sorry that I didn't see your message! I'm sorry! 】

[Pikachu begs for forgiveness for being cute.jpg]

[Pikachu rolls and begs for forgiveness.jpg]

[Pikachu bows and asks for forgiveness.jpg]

"..."

After Gwen read what Peter sent, she silently raised her head and glanced at Ethan.

"...are you looking at me?"

Ethan felt his scalp numb at the sight of her.

"It's nothing. Peter sent me a message to say he's safe. Now I'm relieved." Gwen's smile was flawless: "Then I'll go up and get busy. There are a lot of things in the lab today, so please walk slowly."

"Well, you're busy, you're busy."

Ethan wanted to run away for a long time, but when he heard this, he ran away decisively. After running a few steps, he stumbled suddenly and almost fell to the ground.

[Lin’s phone number. 】

Steel took a pre-emptive strike before Ethan started to curse: [I give you three seconds to prepare, three, two, one, toot. 】

"Your uncle!"

Ethan quickly cleared his throat and said, "Hi..."

[Thank God, you finally answered the phone!How are you?Did the fighting in New York last night affect you? 】Lin's anxious voice came.

"Relax, nothing happened to me. I stayed at home all night last night and was very safe." Ethan quickly comforted him.

"That's good...you scared me to death!"

Lin patted the plumpness on her chest and looked at the news playing on the TV in the window and was afraid for a while:

"I've only been away for less than a day, why are so many things happening in New York?"

[Who knows, suddenly two extremely powerful monsters appeared, and the entire block was almost demolished by them. Fortunately, I hid at home yesterday, otherwise you might not be able to see me. 】

"Slap! Don't talk nonsense! Your life is in danger!"

Lin said angrily, pointing to the food truck on the corner with her left hand, and motioned to Daniel who was wandering around to buy something to eat.

Daniel's mouth twitched, and he painfully took out his wallet, which had shrunk a lot, and ran to buy snacks for the eldest lady.

Oh my God, if she hadn't accidentally seen the news in New York, Her Majesty the Saint might not have planned to eat the entire street in one go.

Daniel breathed a sigh of relief and extended his sincere greetings to the man on the other side of the phone who had never met him but saved his wallet. At the same time, he ordered the stall owner:

"Two tortillas, four...no, eight fritters, one each of croquettes and fried garlic shrimp."

The stall owner with a big beard looked at him strangely and asked confirmingly: "All of the above? Are you sure? Our food is very big."

Daniel looked back at Lin, who was smiling like a flower. Everyone who passed by the girl would be attracted by her unique temperament regardless of gender, and fell in love with her irresistible charm.

Who would have thought that such a good-looking girl could actually eat a meal... Ahem, Her Highness the Saint cannot be criticized.

Daniel dismissed his thoughts, nodded to the stall owner, and said seriously:

"Make more, and I might have to order them all again later."

……

"Okay, don't worry, I will pay attention. I'm home now. Please pay attention to safety when you come back. Uh-huh, okay~~"

It wasn't until Lin reluctantly hung up the phone that Ethan exhaled with satisfaction.

"(﹁﹁)You two are so disgusting."

Steel, who was forced to listen to the whole process, said quietly: "So when will you two get married?"

"What kind of marriage? She and I are just ordinary classmates!" Ethan was furious.

"┑( ̄- ̄)┍Stop it. Who in the entire Zhongzhong High School doesn't know that Lin is yours? No, who shouldn't know that you are Lin's?" Steel pointed out directly.

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know that I would bring it back to my mother one day?" Jasmine said.

"It's too early to bring it back. We haven't even gotten married yet..."

Ethan was so nervous that he picked his fingers and suddenly his expression froze, and he turned away stiffly:

"Mom, why are you here?"

"What's your problem? This is my home. Am I weird here?"

Jasmine picked up a grape with a fork and put it into her mouth. She looked at her son teasingly: "Let's continue talking about that girl's problem. Where are you now? How come everyone in the high school knows that you are hers?"

"╰(*°▽°*)╯That's right!" Steel immediately stood on Jasmine's side.

"I'm warning you not to talk nonsense! I'm suing you for libel, you know? I'm suing you for libel! It's slandering me! It's slandering me!" Ethan was anxious.

"You are in a hurry, you are in a hurry."

Jasmine was overjoyed. She deeply felt the joy of teasing her son, and suddenly said: "Superman Industry will belong to our family from now on."

"She and I really didn't exchange anything...what?! The Superman Industry was handed over to you to manage?!"

Ethan stared at Jasmine in shock: "Mom, is today April Fool's Day?"

"Today is really April Fool's Day, but I didn't lie to you about this."

Jasmine placed the mixed salad in front of Ethan, took off her apron, and sat opposite him:

"Fei Ji just informed me that from now on you can be a rich second generation openly."

"...That's not the point of the problem."

Ethan was a little ashamed, lowered his head and stuffed two mouthfuls of salad into his mouth, and asked in a tone of asking what to eat for dinner:

"Mom, I told Uncle Fei Ji that I was going to ask Dad about it, and he agreed. Is there anything you want to tell me in advance?"

"There's actually nothing to say about your dad. It's just that one night the space agency suddenly discovered a meteorite..."

Jasmine subconsciously began to recall, and after talking for a long time, she finally came to her senses and said in shock:

"Feige promised to tell you? Is today April Fools' Day?!"

"Mom, it's boring to play the same joke twice in a row." Ethan blinked: "Go on, what happened to the meteorite?"

However, Jasmine stopped eating and stared at her son's face intently, making Ethan's skin crawl with goosebumps: "What, what's going on..."

"...It's nothing, I just think it's too early to tell you this now."

Jasmine's eyes were complicated, and she said with a hint of melancholy: "I have been trying my best to let you live an ordinary life over the years. In fact, I have long known that all this will come eventually, but as your mother, I will still try my best. Possibly postpone that day."

"I thought I could let you grow up without worries for a while, and at least graduate from high school smoothly."

Jasmine reached out and stroked Ethan's hair, then gently pinched her son's fair face, her tone mixed with a bit of nostalgic disgust:

"Really, when I was little, I looked so cute when I was a soft and fragrant little ball. Why did I grow up so quickly..."

"I'm not young now, I'm at the age to save the world, hehe."

Ethan grinned and asked impatiently: "So, what happened after the meteorite landed? Could it be that the meteorite was actually a disguised Makino spaceship?"

"This meteorite..."

Jasmine's face suddenly showed a sly smile like a girl: "I have to go to work, you can ask your uncle tomorrow~"

After saying that, she stood up briskly, carried her bag and changed her shoes and closed the door in one go, leaving Ethan with an expectant expression on his face.

"...It's over. Mom is also infected."
