Chapter 24 Oops, it’s a heart-pounding feeling!
To be fair, this meatloaf does taste pretty good.
It not only retains certain elements of Hanxia, but also makes adjustments to better suit the taste of the people of Yingguo.
It’s not unreasonable for it to sell so well.
However, to say it is a delicacy in the world, it cannot be called it.
Anyway, Bede feels that it has reached the level of "delicious".
He couldn't understand why Gwen Spider was so excited.
However, what he didn't know was that what excited Gwen Spider was not the taste of the meat pie itself, but the meaning it symbolized...
This meatloaf is actually not big, in fact it is only about the size of a palm.
Half of the meatloaf was finished quickly.
After crumpling the wrapping paper wrapping the meatloaf into a ball, the Gwen Spider seemed to have made some kind of decision.
"Would you like to hear my story?" Gwen Spider said.
Bede was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little happy. He had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.
"You say it, I'm all ears."
Later, Gwen Spider told her story.
In her world, becoming Spider-Man is actually not a pleasant thing.
Before she gained abilities, her life was not a good one.
Her father is the chief of the New York City Police Department and has a high position, but he has little time to take care of her.
So she fell in love with music, formed a band with several friends, and became the drummer of the band.
Her grades are a mess, and her interpersonal relationships are miserable.
After gaining the ability, the actual situation did not improve much.
It got even worse.
She used her abilities to help others, but those people thought she was a "masked person" and did not like her.
Sometimes, she damaged something because she fought with bad guys, and they also marked her head, thinking that she was also a destroyer.
Gradually, "Spider Woman" became an unpopular existence in her world.
But up until this point, it was actually fine.
What really defeated the Gwen Spider was what happened later.
Her childhood sweetheart, Peter Parker, developed a desire for revenge because he had been bullied for many years. So he made a homemade mutant lizard potion and injected it into a lizard-man.
In order to prevent the lizard man from harming others, she resolutely stopped him, and then discovered his true identity.
Peter Parker, after the effect of the potion wore off, suffered severe physical trauma and died in her arms.
This scene happened to be seen by her father.
Her father preconceivedly believed that it was "Spider Woman" who killed Peter Parker, and issued a wanted order for her!
Since then, Spider-Woman has completely become a being that everyone shouts about!
A criminal suspected of murder!
No one recognizes her anymore!
No one understands her!
No one likes her!
Even she herself feels that she is an unlucky person.
But she didn't give up.
From the death of her friend Peter, she realized the principle of "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility", and convinced herself to become a night knight with a double life.
She has paid a lot for this.
Due to her crime-fighting activities, she was often late for band rehearsals.
As a result, she had a falling out with her bandmates and quit the band.
At this time, she seemed to have been abandoned by the whole world and became the loneliest person.
Even if you are injured, you can only lick your wounds silently in a dark corner.
The two-sided life gradually seems to have become one-sided - both Gwen Stacy and "Spider Woman" have become forgotten by the world.
Loneliness was like a huge palm, closing her in it, so oppressive that she couldn't breathe.
Until she came to this world accidentally.
In this world, she met a group of "similar people" who had the same abilities as her.
This allowed her to rediscover the feeling of having a companion.
But the shadow of past experiences makes her afraid of this feeling.
She is afraid that her "unknown" will bring disaster to these companions who have finally met her.
So she stayed away from Bede and the others.
Watching them laugh, she laughed together in her heart from a distance.
Seeing them making trouble, she felt envious in her heart, but she didn't dare to come forward and join them.
Bede suddenly realized.
No wonder Gwen Spider has been acting so strangely before!
However, he can understand this feeling.
It’s not that he feels the same way, but when he watched the 1994 Spider-Man anime, the 94 Spider-Man in it had a similar situation.
94Spider-Man always takes the blame inexplicably due to various coincidences.
For example, it was Mobis who apparently stole his blood samples for experiments and turned into a vampire, but he was framed as the one who kidnapped Mobis, and was even hunted down by the Punisher for this.
Just thinking about it, I can feel the difficulty of that situation and the torment in my heart.
After all, Spider-Man 94 is an adult man with rich social experience, and he also has Aunt May, Mary Jane, Dr. Connors, Dr. Maria and other relatives and friends to help him.
As for Gwen Spider, she only has herself.
And she is only 17 years old this year.
Thinking of this, Bede's heart was filled with pity for the Gwen Spider.
He looked at Gwen Spider's side face and couldn't help but pull her over and hold her in his arms.
The Gwen Spider struggled a little, then stopped struggling. Instead, it took the initiative to hug Bede, enjoying the long-lost warmth.
Holding the girl's soft body in his arms and smelling the faint fragrance between his nostrils, Bede didn't have any distracting thoughts in his heart.
"Gwen."
"Huh?"
"I will be your friend from now on."
"Hmm."
"From now on, my first friend!"
"Why the first one?"
"Because I will take you to see more of the world, more beautiful scenery, and make more friends!"
Bede let go of Gwen Spider, pushed her away a little, grabbed her shoulders with both hands, made eye contact, and said solemnly.
Gwen Spider's face blushed slightly, but she did not avoid Bede's gaze, but smiled: "I'm looking forward to it!"
Seeing the girl's shy look, Bede's heart beat hard.
Oops, it’s a heart-pounding feeling!
At this time, Gwen Spider seemed to have noticed something strange about Bede, and Gwen Spider's face turned red visibly.
Seeing this scene, a sentence emerged in Bede's mind unconsciously: There are not many truths in the world, and a woman's blush is worth a long paragraph of dialogue.
Neither of them spoke, they just stared at each other for a long time.
In the end, Bede felt that he couldn't hold on any longer.
If the stalemate continues like this, he might really do something rude!
"Ahem, um, have you rested? How about I continue patrolling?" Bede took back his hand and said with some embarrassment.
"Well, you go ahead, I will always be by your side and watching you." Although Gwen blushed, she looked much more magnanimous.
This is related to personal character and is also affected by the environment to a certain extent.
However, the throbbing just now made Bede feel a strange feeling towards the Gwen Spider in his heart.
