Huff——
Thank goodness, I didn't embarrass myself in front of the goddess this time.
Although this forty dollars was Peter Parker's living expenses for next week, earned by working eight consecutive hours of odd jobs at a restaurant during his spare time.
But for the goddess, no matter how much it costs, it's worth it.
If worst comes to worst, I'll just work another eight hours of odd jobs!
In fact, Peter Parker had fantasized more than once about riding his used bicycle with Gwen on the back seat, enjoying a carefree day on any street or in any park in [New York].
At least that way, he could feel the embrace of the goddess up close... That's right, holding her waist counts as an embrace, right?
But then he denied this unrealistic and foolish idea himself.
Gwen is so cute, how could she sit on his shabby bicycle?
"Oh, if only I could drive."
"That way I could borrow a sports car from Harry and take Gwen out for a drive to relax..."
But then Peter Parker remembered that he didn't have money for gas or a driver's license, so... this beautiful dream was shattered before it even began.
The first love is beautiful and makes people yearn for it.
But the truth is that it's really difficult for a poor guy like Peter Parker to have love!
Because he often can't even get past himself.
That's right, he can't bear to watch his goddess suffer with him...
"Thank you, Peter, but I don't want to go to the cemetery yet!"
Gwen had already calmed down and said with an extremely firm tone: "I want to wait until I personally confirm that the damn guy has received the punishment he deserves before telling Dad this news."
Although Gwen had thought countless times about using the most cruel torture to personally deal with the murderer who killed her father.
But now that the other party has fallen into the hands of the police, she can accept it as long as he receives a fair trial and punishment.
"Okay, if you need any help, I'm always available..."
Peter Parker hung up the phone with a slight disappointment, but when he saw the forty dollars in his hand, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
Although he didn't get a date with the goddess, at least next week's living expenses are settled.
This should be considered... a win, right?!

……
[Manhattan].
[New York State Supreme Court].
Eddie Brock, who had just been sentenced and convicted of nine felonies, was almost sentenced to death... but was ultimately sentenced to life imprisonment because one member of the jury objected, boarded the prison van under the escort of several police officers.
(Note: Leaving aside the 12 states that have completely abolished the death penalty, according to the laws of the beautiful country, as long as one member of the [jury] objects, the criminal will not be sentenced to death. This is the justice of the "procedure" unique to their self-proclaimed civilized world!)
Next, he will be transferred to [Texas] and spend the rest of his life in the state prison there.
Throughout the trial, Eddie Brock drooped his head listlessly, and the whole person was as lifeless as a walking corpse.
Perhaps it was because of this that he accidentally moved a member of the jury and cast the crucial vote against it!
In the carriage, a police officer with a live ammunition glanced at Eddie Brock opposite him and said to the silent police officer beside him:
"It's really impossible to judge a person by their appearance. I heard that this kid has eaten nearly a hundred people's heads..."
"Really?" The silent police officer curled his lips, obviously not believing it. "Look at his pathetic appearance. He can't even squeeze out a fart with three punches. How dare he eat people?"
"But one thing is certain, he will never want to get out of prison in this lifetime."
"It should be true." The first police officer to speak said with some schadenfreude: "You didn't see how crazy the angry families of the victims and the swarming reporters were before the trial. They almost wanted to swallow him alive..."
"Presumably, the higher-ups must have taken this into consideration before sending him to a prison in [Texas] to serve his sentence... It's just that a few of us have to travel thousands of kilometers back and forth with this guy."
However.
Just as several police officers were talking to each other, the prison van, which was driving at high speed, suddenly braked for some reason and stopped.
Then, before the people in the carriage could react, the door was rudely opened from the outside.
Immediately, a group of fully armed . agents appeared in front of them.
Several police officers were stunned, and a not-so-unfamiliar word involuntarily appeared in their minds—jailbreak?
"Everyone, don't be nervous, we are on the same side."
At this time, Nick Fury walked out from behind the crowd, first glanced at the listless Eddie Brock, and then took out his ID to explain to the extremely nervous police officers:
"We are Homeland Strategic... Forget it, we are from [.]. We have some important things we want to talk to Eddie Brock about."
"If everything goes well, maybe you can return to the police station early to report for duty, so please make it convenient for you!"
While speaking, he gestured to them.
After several bewildered police officers got out of the car, Nick Fury entered the carriage, sat opposite Eddie Brock, and slowly said:
"Eddie, there are two paths in front of you now... One is to follow the court's verdict and rot little by little in the prison in [Texas], like a dead body;
Or cooperate with us [.] and become our extra-staff special agent. The reward is that I will help you deal with all the crimes on your body so that you can see the light of day again!"
Saying that, he raised his wrist and looked at the time, reminding: "Boy, next, you only have 5 minutes to think. When the time is up, I will leave with my men immediately."
Before, in order to get Eddie Brock out of the death penalty.
Nick Fury painstakingly bribed a member of the jury... That's right, the one who voted against it.
So everything is not a coincidence!
However.
Unexpectedly, Eddie Brock gave the answer immediately without even using a second.
He raised his head fiercely like a ghost, and roared hysterically in a hoarse voice:
"I know what you're up to, don't waste your efforts... Anti-Venom has been destroyed by that damn woman, otherwise, do you think I would sit here and accept the trial obediently?"
Because he was too emotional, the black cloth that had been covering his hand slipped to the ground, revealing the arm that had been cut off at the wrist below, and the two shocking wounds that had begun to scab over.
"What? Anti-Venom was destroyed?"
Only then did Nick Fury notice the abnormality on the other party's hand, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He had already seen the combat power of the white symbiote... that is, Anti-Venom, in the relevant videos.
Even dense bullet attacks could not break through the defense at all.
But now Eddie Brock said that Anti-Venom was destroyed?
And it's a woman?
What kind of woman is this that can kill such a monster... another Carol?
Wait?
Could it be that female vampire?
Σ(⊙▽⊙"a？？？
For some reason.
The figure of Selena involuntarily appeared in Nick Fury's mind.
At the same time, he smelled a familiar conspiracy.
The psychological shadow that Carl had "pitted" him out of in the past once again enveloped his heart.
Impossible.
Absolutely impossible!
With the strength of that female vampire, she is definitely not Anti-Venom's opponent.
What's more, if it really has something to do with Carl Mara, with that guy's character, he would definitely take Anti-Venom away instead of destroying it!
That's right, that's how it is...
Nick Fury forced himself to accept the "fact" that this matter had nothing to do with Carl, because only in this way could he feel better.
If he is one step ahead of Carl this time, then he really wants to hit his head and die!
And right now, compared to being entangled in who "that woman" is, he has a more important thing that he must figure out immediately, so he quickly asked:
"That alien symbiote that parasitizes in your body... that is, Anti-Venom, has it ever told you about the coordinates of the comet where they live?"
Seeming to be afraid that the other party would not understand, he gave an example: "It is the planet where the [Life Foundation] first successfully obtained the alien symbiote!"
"Coo...rdinates?"
Eddie Brock was stunned for a moment, and then his body trembled violently, and the whole person was suddenly reborn.
Yes, I also know the coordinates of the "Symbiote Planet"!!
There are thousands of symbiotes there.
In this way, as long as I find a way to deceive this black ghost in front of me and let the organization behind him help me reach that planet, then I can return to Earth with the symbiote army and take revenge on that damn stinky woman and those who have hurt me!!
Thinking of this, Eddie Brock, who was like a newborn, said without hesitation: "Yes, I know the coordinates of that comet, but I have a request."
"Tell me about it..."
The latest novel is first published in Liǔ 9 Shū Bā!!
Although Nick Fury has never liked to negotiate with low-status guys, and thinks this approach is too weak.
But right now, in order to successfully obtain an alien symbiote with a combat power comparable to that of an Iron Man armor, he still decided to endure it.
"It's actually very simple."
Eddie Brock grinned and blurted out, "I must land on that planet with the astronauts!"
"Um?"
Nick Fury looked at the other party with a strange expression.
Seemed to want to see his true thoughts from Eddie Brock's face.
But unfortunately, apart from the elation of a villain, he gained nothing.
Forget it, let's get the coordinates first!
Even if Eddie Brock has any careful thoughts, as long as he is there, he will definitely not be able to make any waves!
"Can."
"Deal... Oh, yes, your [.] technology should be very advanced, can you get me two nano-tech fake hands?"
A few minutes later.
Eddie Brock left the scene in a [.] car.
And those police officers drove the prison van back the same way.
Swish——
A lithe figure landed on the highway with the help of Spider-Man's silk. Gwen looked coldly at the direction in which Eddie Brock and the [.] car disappeared, and murmured:
"Very good, [.], I've noted this down!!"
Obviously.
Gwen, who was hiding in the dark, had a complete view of what had just happened.
The reason why she didn't do it on the spot.
It was because she knew very well that with her current strength, it was not enough to confront a behemoth like [.] head-on.
Otherwise, not only will she not be able to avenge her revenge, but her own life may be ruined because of this.
So... she needs to formulate a sound plan!
…………
……
Night.
A certain area of [Chicago].
A sudden war between humans and vampires is in full swing.
Just half an hour ago, a large number of vampires suddenly emerged from an underground altar somewhere.
They howled and rushed to the streets, pouncing on every pedestrian on the road like mad dogs, then snapping their necks and devouring the blood on their bodies.
After receiving the alarm call, the police immediately dispatched a large number of police forces to the scene to suppress them.
But it's useless...
Faced with those vampires who were in a state of inexplicable frenzy, unless the bullets could directly blow their heads or shatter their hearts.
Otherwise, even if their bodies have been beaten into sieves, these guys can still quickly recover from their injuries by sucking a lot of human blood.
So the battle has been one-sided from the beginning.
The police retreated steadily, with countless casualties.
Fortunately, a large number of [National Guard] carrying heavy weapons came to support them soon.
This barely controlled the vampire army's pace of spreading outward.
However, anyone can see that this line of defense, which has been so hard to build on the periphery, is not as solid as imagined.
Faced with the continuous impact of the group of vampires who seem to never be killed, the line of defense may be broken at any time!!
And the chain reaction caused by fear is also gradually fermenting.
Civilians living in nearby neighborhoods have never seen such a terrifying scene before, and have fallen into unprecedented panic.
They never thought that the "exclusive doom of New York", which was ridiculed by the entire network, would so quickly envelop the city where they live.
So many guys who were scared out of their wits decided to ignore the official warnings repeatedly played on TV to "stay at home, lock the doors, and wait for rescue", and hurriedly took their families and pets, and fled in a panic to farther and safer areas.
However.
The cruel reality taught these people a vivid lesson.
Many people had just left their homes and rushed to the streets, and were directly drowned by the wandering vampire army.
The sound of wailing and screaming was endless.
Even those who were fortunate enough to escape the vampire encirclement and successfully reach the outer defense line jointly established by the police and the National Guard were immediately shot dead as potential carriers.
Clearly, staying at home during this time, locking the doors, and waiting for death was the optimal solution.
A desperate atmosphere gradually enveloped the entire city!
"Heh heh heh..."
A male vampire, his entire body shrouded in a wide black cloak, revealing only a bald head, slowly walked out of the underground altar, accompanied by a vampire elder.
"Master...no, Eater of Smoke."
