The Death Knell

Peter didn't know what was going on in Gwen's little head, but he felt that she didn't seem to have any intention of telling her embarrassing scene, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

In order to prevent her from recalling the embarrassing scene just now, Peter quickly took a sip of water and chatted awkwardly with the girl next to him.

Peter has a wide range of knowledge. As long as it is related to hot topics on the Internet, the otaku always knows something about it.

Gradually, he discovered that Gwen was not the indifferent flower of the high mountains as imagined. On the contrary, she could pick up the topics he asked. She had also played many video games, and she was even still... Run groups with netizens online.

She seems to be quite a homebody, so she is one of her own.

Peter then relaxed and communicated with Gwen freely. Unknowingly, the sense of time and space in the past disappeared, and the more the two chatted, the more they became more and more congenial.

This made Mary Jane, who was sitting behind them, narrow her eyes and prick up her ears to eavesdrop.

Mary understands Peter best. To put it simply, Peter has a boring personality.

When you are not familiar with him, he seems like a transparent person with no sense of existence, but after you become familiar with him, he is extremely talkative and always talks endlessly.

However, Mary always thought that Peter liked Marshall Jones, who was now beside her, because MJ had the most outgoing personality and got along well with many boys in the class.

It turned out that the guess was wrong. Was it Gwen that Peter had been peeking at in the class?

It makes sense, after all, in this small group, Gwen is the most beautiful and gentle, has the best family background and is the best at dressing up.

Girls are always very sensitive to gazes. Does Peter think he won't be caught hiding behind textbooks and peeking?

In fact, the girls have already discovered it, but they didn't say it out for their own reasons. Anyway, being looked at will not make you less sexy, and it can also prove that your small group is more popular with boys, right?

Marshall showed a funny expression and whispered in Mary's ear: "You guessed wrong. You owe me five dollars."

"Not sure yet, maybe he suddenly turned around and confessed his love to you." Mary also replied softly. Although Peter and Gwen seemed to be enveloped in a pink atmosphere at this time, she still wanted to stick to her past opinions.

Peter's personality should complement the cheerful Marshall!

"Hehe, if he really has the courage, I will agree." MJ rubbed Mary's face with his afro and smiled: "But I always think it will be Gwen. After all, boys only care about who is the most beautiful."

"That's someone else. Peter is not that kind of person." Mary shook her head, knowing that her childhood companion was not such a superficial type.

The Latin girl shrugged and seemed very open-minded: "Sisters, times have changed. In your impression, he is a child who eats snot, but in fact he is now an adolescent boy. Believe me, under the influence of hormones, he is now There are some embarrassing things in my mind."

Mary pinched her thigh angrily and retorted: "I think you are thinking about those things. You have obviously never been in love, and you still pretend to know everything."

"Yes, you are right, you are the one who knows the best among us."

Marshall laughed and ducked, then started to retaliate with tickles, and the two girls giggled and twisted.

Not to mention what the girls were doing, let’s just talk about the driver of the school bus, a fat middle-aged man who was confused at this time.

Midtown High School is located in Queens, about a three-hour drive from Manhattan. He is very familiar with the road after crossing the bridge, but something strange happened today.

"Two hundred meters ahead at the intersection, turn left."

The navigation placed next to the dashboard issued such a voice prompt, asking him to turn left at the next intersection.

"No, it should be to the right. Did I remember it wrong?"

The fat uncle slowed down a bit and began to bargain with the car voice navigation device produced by Stark.

"You did remember it wrong, so 150 meters ahead, turn left."

The voice navigation seemed to understand what he said and patiently explained it.

"No, no, no..." The driver's head shook like a rattle, and the fat on his chin rippled: "I am the lead car leading the way. If I go the wrong way, it will be troublesome. It’s bigger, I remember it’s to the right.”

The voice navigation said again: "Are you the kind of person who is unwilling to admit mistakes? Well, you can turn right, but I am sure you are wrong. I am a computer. Believe me or not is up to you! By the way, The road to the right is blocked today. This morning the police station received a terrorist threat from the Middle East. If you are not afraid of death, go ahead. I say it again, 100 meters ahead, turn left."

The fat driver rubbed his face. He was a little shaken after hearing the terrorist attack:

"Really? If there was a terrorist attack, why didn't the news mention it? I watch the weather forecast on Wilson News Channel every morning."

"Man, are you really going to take carloads of children astray? Make them suffer pain they shouldn't have to endure just to visit the Osborne Building?" The map on the voice navigation device began to flash. , looking a little impatient: "50 meters ahead, turn left."

"I have never used a smart device like yours before. Someone gave it to the school last night. My mind is a little confused now. You seem to be a living person."

The driver's hand on the steering wheel trembled slightly. This device that seemed to be alive made him a little scared. Omnic crisis scenes from various science fiction movies flooded into his mind.

"Now! Turn left! Use your turn signal, you idiot!"

The voice navigation was silent for a while and then suddenly roared, which was exactly the same as the voice of the instructor when the driver was in the driving school.

When this happened, the driver was so frightened that he subconsciously obeyed. The bus made a squeaking tire screeching sound at the intersection and turned to the left. Seeing this, other school buses followed.

"I... hope you're right."

The driver resigned himself to his fate. Sweat appeared on his forehead, staining the collar of his blue uniform black like oil.

The small black box of the navigation instrument came out with a satisfied sound of approval from the driving school instructor:

"You did a good job. Now keep driving forward and go faster. The light will turn red in 47 seconds at the next intersection."

In this way, under the guidance of Stark's high-tech voice-enabled fully intelligent navigation device, the driver had a smooth journey without encountering even a red light, and delivered the students to their destination in just half an hour.

The navigation device controls the school buses to automatically open the doors and play music to remind the children to get off.

Peter also got out of the car with Gwen, but when he looked up, he was dumbfounded.

The torch-shaped building in front of me towers into the sky, and the shining glass seems to reflect people's shadows, but the key is not here, but there is a series of huge English letters on the side of the building.

STARK.

These school buses took them outside the Stark Industries headquarters building. It was not Osborn Industries at all. They were going the wrong way!

Just when the teachers and drivers were at a loss and began to try to contact the school leaders, a gold and red armor in the sky suddenly landed in front of everyone, assuming a classic landing posture, which attracted a burst of cheers from the children. .

"Iron Man! Look, it's Iron Man!"

"No, it's Mr. Stark, he's here to pick us up!"

"Wow! Tony, you are so handsome!"

Iron Man stood up, opened his arms enthusiastically, and the mask popped open to reveal Tony Desser's face inside.

"Children, welcome to Stark Industries! Since its establishment in 1872, it has always been at the forefront of technology. It is completely different from a certain biotechnology company that was only established in 1967. Ahem! In addition to the open visit today, I We have also made some other arrangements, hiding some secret gifts in the building for you to discover. At the same time, the company restaurant is open to everyone for free, and you can have all-you-can-eat the best Wilson fast food here!"

He believed that everyone knew him, so he didn't even need to introduce himself, just smile.

"Really?" asked a student in the crowd who loves to eat.

Tony patted his chest and put his hands on his hips:

"Of course, superheroes don't lie. And, those are just some of the many surprises! Later in the evening, members of the Avengers, including Captain America, will come over to meet you. What are you waiting for? !”

He smiled and got out of the way. The opportunity to go directly to the entrance of the building was right in front of everyone. At this time, the light reflected by the spacious glass door seemed to become more dazzling.

As soon as Captain America was mentioned, a child who was as strong as an adult ran past him into the building, as fast as lightning.

Someone is taking the lead, how can the students control themselves? They rushed into Stark Tower one after another and began their own journey of exploration and learning, having long forgotten about Osborn.

Mystery gifts, free food, superheroes!

Who can refuse this?

Which company visit is not a visit anyway? The conditions given by Stark Industries are here, and only a fool would go to Osborne.

"Teachers and driver friends also have gifts, business alliance shopping cash coupons from Stark Industries and Wilson Enterprises!"

Tony rubbed his hands together, and two large handfuls of discount coupons spread out in his hands like fans.

He began to use them to fan the scent of the banknotes to the hesitant adults.

So the teachers gave up their struggle, hung up the phone calls from the principal, took a step forward, approached science with the children, and enjoyed the happiness that 'real technology' brings to people.
