Marvel's Speedster

003 Coffee Shop

In the empty mansion, Ross was sweating profusely alone.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed since he came to this world.

During this period of time, he successfully played the role of a prodigal son. Although he didn't study very hard, he at least maintained the appearance of a normal student on the surface--classes at eight o'clock in the morning, lunch at twelve o'clock, Running between different classrooms until the end of school at 2:30 in the afternoon, and returning home after half an hour of activities on campus, as for what he did after leaving the campus, whether he was carrying out some ulterior secret work or arduous gymnastics Cultivation, it will not be known to outsiders.

In short, for him, this kind of life is both familiar and interesting.

Originally thought that he would never have the chance to enjoy such a good time again, but the goddess of fate obviously played a joke on him.

To be able to come back again, and in this magical world with infinite possibilities, we must live a more exciting life than the previous one.

Ross secretly made up his mind.

While he was sweating in his stretch vest on homemade gym equipment, the home phone rang, and the caller ID was from Illinois.

"...Yes, Mom, everything is normal here, Gregory and Skye, how are you? Greet them for me." Picking up the phone, Ross chatted unhurriedly with the mother of this body, Janet God, in his memory, the Byrne family used to be a happy family, but when Ross was very young, his father was implicated in a major mistake at work. Byrne was sent to prison for a heavy sentence. The unsatisfactory life forced Janet to remarry a farmer named Sutter. Since then, she settled in the Midwest and adopted a daughter, while Ross was raised by her grandparents until the two old people died one after another, and the mother Contacts became frequent again.

These are the painful memories that Ross hides in his heart. Now that he has digested all the memory fragments, he has opened up to him all the past life without reservation. With a little superb disguise skills, even if the other end is the biological mother who is connected by blood. , and did not find any abnormalities, only happy for his changes.

While chatting, he was fiddling with the recently collected experimental materials on the table. These were easy for him. A person who can deal with the world's top scientific circles for many years to spy on secrets originally possesses a very high level and broad vision. The ability to start is even higher than most academicians of the Academy of Sciences.

The lengthy call full of affection did not end until half an hour later, Ross put down the receiver, looked at the time, did not exercise again, but carefully put on latex gloves, and took out a colorful dog from a cage piled up on the table The big spider clamped its xiong nail from the side with energized tweezers, stimulated the secretion of the venom gland at the junction of the front edge of the eye area and the chelicer base, then gently stabbed a glass capillary into it, and watched a small amount of transparent venom flow smoothly. Flow down the tube, and finally pour into the prepared glassware.

"Spider No. 13, code-named Screaming, its main lineage is the combination of the brown recluse spider and the spider spider, and has implanted the gene fragments of the bullet ant and the box jellyfish. Currently, the venom is purified by gauze filtration, and then dried... But It's not enough." Ross concentrated on taking notes, finishing the procedure until the vial was frozen in the refrigerator before relaxing.

"The harvest is great, but if you want to go further, you must find funds to buy professional equipment, at least centrifuges, freeze-drying equipment, large microscopes and a good experimental environment, and more human resources... I hope I My partner can bring me all this as soon as possible." He thought quietly, looking at a lonely one-armed middle-aged man who appeared on the monitor.

"Ross, here, here."

In the coffee shop on the side of the street, the young and beautiful Mary Jane stood up with a smile and waved to the boy who just came in. Recently, their relationship has become better and better. In the girl's heart, Ross's status unconsciously surpassed that of the younger man. Kim's Harry and childhood sweetheart Peter.

"What do you want, I'll treat you." The girl smiled like a flower.

"A latte, thank you." After dismissing the waiter, Ross met the curious eyes on the other side.

"You've changed a lot recently, and I'm almost no longer able to recognize you." Mary Jane stirred the espresso and milk in the cup with a spoon, and sighed at the same time.

"Could it be that the plaid shirt on me is too old, maybe I bought it two years ago." Ross made a joke, which made the girl punch a few times, and then spoke seriously.

"I think it's because of adulthood, you may not know, my family..."

Ross sipped his coffee and told about his own situation. He spoke very skillfully, and with a few casual words, he outlined the image of a young man who was unlucky in his early years, rebellious in his youth, and later worked hard to improve himself. Sad for his childhood, but also happy for the recent changes.

"I didn't expect the relationship between you and Peter to be like this. No wonder you have been at odds." Mary Jane was stunned.

In Ross's memory, the parents of Peter Parker, who became Spider-man, both worked in Osborn Industry, and the old Byrne was their co-supervisor. An accident more than ten years ago, the Parker couple destroyed the research results of the Osborn Group, and In the end, Peter's parents disappeared, and Ross' father unfortunately became their scapegoat to bear the anger from shareholders. This is why Ross often troubled Peter in the past.

But it is different now, Peter has become Spider-man, and he has replaced the original Ross. The two may still meet in the future, but it will never be for the past grievances.

The two chatted casually like this, talking about you and me, until they were interrupted by breaking news on the TV in the coffee shop.

"...Here is the CBS emergency news. Reporter Christina is broadcasting for you. Following the mysterious disappearance of fifteen super spiders at the Columbia University Research Center, another major case occurred in midtown Manhattan. Behind me is the attacked Citibank, Five minutes ago, a strange man wearing red protective gear and an iron helmet rushed into the lobby, forcibly broke open the vault and snatched the gold stored there... about seven security guards were injured, and more than forty customers and bank staff Trapped, a number of policemen shot at him, but it didn't have any effect. Anti-riot experts confirmed that the opponent was Mutant, and S.W.A.T. has been dispatched now..."

Through the screen, everyone in the coffee shop could feel the panic at the scene. The police could only hide behind the car and fired repeatedly, but the strong man carrying the money bag didn't even look at it. A group of people turned upside down.

In the face of villains with super abilities, ordinary people are simply unable to fight.

"God, it's so cruel, this world is getting more and more dangerous!"

"Damn Mutant, why doesn't the federal government deport these dangerous elements?"

"Another car was hit, I swear it's not the first time I've seen this guy rob a bank! No one can stop him!"

"Who can stand against these mutant villains, Spider-man?"

"Don't be naive, maybe Spider-man is also a Mutant. No one knows his evil deeds for the time being. The army should be dispatched to arrest all these guys, and study what strange disease they have to become ferocious like mad dogs!"

There was a lot of discussion in the coffee shop, and the waiters and customers were shocked by the scene on the TV. The reporter was broadcasting nervously in front of the shaking camera with tears in his voice. The wounded of Shen.yin.

Seeing this Shura battlefield-like scene happening in their own city, many citizens hated Mutant deeply.

"Spider-man isn't a bad guy, is he? He must not know what's going on here", Mary Jane tried to defend the idol, but no one listened to her.

"definitely, you're right, he just doesn't know."

Ross responded softly, took the opportunity to sit opposite, and tightly held Mary Jane's cool little hand under the table, while slowly savoring the bitter sweetness in the cup, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
