I Am Gwen's Spider-Man Mentor

At 7 o'clock in the morning, the sunshine of New York City is shining in every corner of the city, regardless of rich or poor, from the abandoned slum where Gwen Stacy lives to the high-end wealthy neighborhood where Professor Raymond Xu lives. In the crowd area, almost everyone is comfortably bathing in the warm sunshine at the turn of spring and summer in New York.

Professor Xu is particularly comfortable. He is currently lying on his 1.8-meter-wide bed, looking up at the luxuriously decorated ceiling. His right hand is naturally resting on the soft bed, and his left hand is touching the soft quilt cover. The professor's eyes narrowed and his mouth grinned, as if he was very happy with his achievements in the past few days.

Yes, Spider-Woman Gwen Stacy joined her lab, Pepper Potts regarded him as a pillar of support in the company after Tony disappeared, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence extended an olive branch to him. ...Not only that, he also responded with "Fcuk you" to Obadiah Stan, the clown with beards who jumped up and cursed from time to time, avenging himself for being oppressed and exploited for so many years.

Next, all he had to do was wait for Tony Stark to return from Afghanistan on a C-17 transport plane, go with Pepper to greet him, and then attend the press conference where Tony announced the disbandment of the weapons research and development department. Obadiah's downfall will surely lead to an eight-magnitude earthquake in Stark Industries, and there will be many positions for him to choose from.

The professor who usually looks like a salty fish stood up like a carp today, happily changed into his nightgown, washed, cooked and had breakfast, and picked out a brand new linen suit that had just been ironed, preparing to welcome today's surprise:

Yes, this is the first day that Gwen Stacey comes to work under him - the professor not only hopes that the graceful and well-built ESU goddess can inject a new style into the laboratory, but also hopes that Gwen's arrival will bring a new atmosphere to the laboratory. Those rough guys who pick at the dead skin on their feet and touch the keyboard and mouse without washing their hands should restrain themselves.

You don’t have to hold your own keyboard and mouse when you go to work on another computer!

Therefore, in order to have a good mood today and in the future, and to express his welcome to Gwen for joining the laboratory, Raymond Xu decided to make an exception and personally pick up Miss Spider to his laboratory.

The professor took the elevator down to the underground garage and chose over and over again among his three cars - the white Audi S8 had just been seen by the protest team in the school and was not suitable for appearance recently; the Toyota FJ Cruiser was too hard-core and seemed inappropriate. The atmosphere is suitable for picking up beautiful girls by yourself. Then, all that's left is...

The professor smiled so hard that he narrowed his eyes and turned his attention to the two-seater sports car painted in dark blue. Although Nathan often complained that this sports car had too nouveau riche aesthetics, it had always been Professor Xu's favorite.

Therefore, on the streets of the Bronx in the early morning, a blue-painted Chevrolet Corvette C6 drove quickly through the dilapidated streets. The speed was so fast that the "living dead" walking zombies raised their heads to look. One glance, and everyone knew that there was another big shot on the block who couldn't be trifled with.

Even the gangs that usually dominate the lower-class neighborhoods would not dare to mess with a "high-class man" who drives a high-end sports car in broad daylight, otherwise no one would be able to bear the NYPD coming.

This is not the first time that Raymond Xu has come to the abandoned areas dotted throughout New York City, but every time he comes here, he still feels that human society is about to end. There is an M9 pistol on the dashboard of the professor's car and another on the passenger seat. Such preparations are always inevitable here.

When driving past buildings and factories that have been in disrepair, the professor can't help but admire the large-scale graffiti. These bizarre graffiti have no logic at first glance, but upon closer inspection they are actually designed with great ingenuity, showing the artist's vitality - a vitality that grows wildly in such a barbaric world.

Life will always find a way to survive, overcome all disadvantages, and overcome all despair.

When the professor who was looking at those graffiti thought of these words, the light in his eyes softened for a moment, as if he saw the vitality in the girl again - which was completely different from his depression and death. Gwen's cheerfulness, enthusiasm and sunshine in dealing with the world made the twenty-four-year-old Raymond, who hung out with forty-year-old researchers and fifty-year-old professors all day long, feel that he had regained the twenty-year-old youth that should have belonged to him. breath.

On the roadside, two stunned Latino gangsters had just been let down from the street lamp and were telling others about how they tried to rob a girl last night and then fainted for some reason. The two uneducated gangsters and the gang members around them explained for a long time, but they could not explain clearly what happened.

Then the professor saw the gang leader giving an order, and several Latinos rushed up together, kicked the two unlucky guys to the ground, and punched and kicked them. Seeing the two people with bruises and swollen faces, the professor beamed, which added to his good mood today.

When he turned around and was about to continue looking for the blonde girl, suddenly, there was a "bang bang bang" knock on the car window next to him. The frightened professor grabbed the pistol on the passenger seat and found Gwen with a speechless face - the girl's lips were tightly closed and extended to both sides, obviously showing a look of extreme helplessness.

The professor who didn't know why opened the car door and let Gwen Stacy sit in. The girl kept a helpless expression, fastened her seat belt in an orderly manner, and waited for the car to start moving before complaining:

"Raymond, there is a big gap between your aesthetics of cars and your age."

"What do you mean?" The professor tapped his finger on the steering wheel, not immediately understanding the meaning of Miss Spider's words.

"That means you're greasy!" Gwen said angrily.

"Greasy?" Raymond, who had not had much contact with women of his own age, was still confused. "Didn't I wash my face clean today?"

Gwen, who has always been expressive and has a pair of smart big blue eyes, didn't know how to position her facial features for the first time in response to the professor's lack of self-awareness. The girl's "helplessness" froze on her face, and was so thick that it almost overflowed. She explained word for word:

"In the morning, I drove a high-end sports car with a nasty paint job to the slums. I drove around several times looking for someone, as if I wanted everyone to know that I was rich -"

Gwen's brows furrowed inward, and her eyebrows stood up: "Are you showing off to me?"

————Gwen’s angry dividing line————

Professor Xu glanced at Gwen Stacy, who was hugging her chest angrily and saying nothing, with an embarrassed look on her face - he didn't expect that his attention would actually become a show off in the eyes of the girl. After thinking about it, he decided to break the silence first: "You... Professor Octavius ​​hasn't given you any trouble recently, has he?"

Gwen Stacy ignored Raymond beside her. The girl just hugged her breasts and looked down at her thighs. Her blond hair just hid the curve of her profile, making Raymond beside her very nervous. It's hard to see his own face clearly.

Gwen lowered her eyes in annoyance, and the scene of the professor watching the car wandering around her home over and over again in the morning came to mind again - why didn't she realize that these men with some career are so annoying, like a peacock spreading its tail, a bit Bad money wants the whole world to know.

Gwen herself is not a character who particularly cares about money, and she also hates using money to distinguish people, races, and classes. Miss Spider believes that is often the root cause of crime, so Raymond's behavior only makes her heart The sensitive girl is bored.

Although that was not the professor's intention - he drove a luxury car, more just to show that he valued Gwen.

After a long time, Gwen said indifferently: "Are you really from a parallel universe?"

"Yes, of course." Raymond chose the words carefully. He began to imagine that he was just a character in a movie, a comic, or a novel - but he finally discovered that it was really a terrifying thing. Everything is predetermined.

Thinking of this, the professor glanced at Gwen beside him. The girl was independent and strong-willed. This kind of person could not stand that she might be a "comic character".

"Why do you know about me...?" Gwen tried hard to suppress her surging complex emotions - she was used to this. The girl just faced the car window with the indifferent face that everyone was used to seeing. He asked word for word, his voice as clear as an announcer's.

"I saw it when I traveled through parallel universes." Professor Xu thought about it again and again, and finally lied. He really didn't want to say such cruel things.

Gwen glanced at him sideways. The smart girl could naturally guess that the professor was hiding something, but she didn't intend to continue asking. Although Raymond has a conceited side to his character, he is also patient, gentle and knows how to take care of people's emotions. If he doesn't say anything about it, there must be a reason why he doesn't say it.

"Then..." When asking this question, Gwen Stacy, who has always been decisive, couldn't help but hesitate, "Have you met my dad during your journey? Is he okay?"

"Superintendent George Stacey?" Raymond looked to the upper right, as if thinking. When Gwen felt a little uneasy, thinking that there would be some bad news, Raymond spoke again: "He...probably misses you very much, and his life is very decadent."

Gwen felt her heart hurt again. She always wanted to take care of everything, but when she found that she couldn't do it, she could only escape from some of these things - of course she wanted her father's love, attention and understanding. , but every time she thinks about the reality that this hope cannot be obtained, and may even cause harm to the people she cares about, her heart will hurt to the point of breaking into her bones.

"Are you okay?" After noticing the low pressure in the air in the car and the lowered head of Gwen next to him, Raymond asked with concern: "Actually, he is okay. He just misses you so much. You can take good care of him." Himself, he will be very happy.”

"Thank you." Gwen lowered her head and murmured to herself: "But I didn't take care of myself either."

"What you have accomplished, if it were me, or anyone else, it would not be better." Raymond wanted to free his hand to rub Gwen's golden hair, but in the end he did nothing. He just continued: "Sometimes you just need someone to share the load with."

Actually, I have to blame for the delay in the plot. The first big plot required several surgeries and was just finalized recently. But once it’s decided, it can start quickly.
