"Ah?"

Cindy grabbed her hair with both hands, "This isn't fair, how come only I..."

"Could it be because you think I'm not good-looking?"

She leaned close to Ye Li, suspecting, "Do you not like me?"

"Oh no, you are very alluring~"

Ye Li certainly wouldn't spoil the fun, "I also want to have a deeper topic with you; why don't we set a time for an in-depth exchange?"

"Hey! I'm not a casual girl!"

Cindy defended herself, then looked at Ye Li and guessed, "Let me guess the teacher's identity. Ghost-Spider is female, so are you Black Spider?"

Ye Li said indifferently, "Then I also think you are Ghost-Spider."

Although the Black Spider identity was similar in appearance to Ghost-Spider, he hadn't shown the ability to climb walls or shoot webs, so there was no necessary connection between the two.

"I am not Ghost-Spider; you can call me [Web], or [Bride]."

"Bride?"

"Just a title!"

Cindy didn't dismiss the guess that he was Black Spider just because Ye Li had taken the initiative.

However, her Spider-Sense noticed that Skye and the others were chasing them again, so she began to take off her clothes.

Soon, only a small tube top and panties remained, with a large area of alluring skin displayed in front of Ye Li.

Ye Li raised an eyebrow, "What are you doing? Here?"

"Don't think wildly! Help me hold this."

Cindy stuffed her clothes into his arms, and then her ten slender fingers danced.

Spider silk quickly appeared at her fingertips, wrapping around her body to form a spider-silk uniform.

The way she used spider silk was different from Gwen's web-shooters; it looked like magic.

"I think you're going to take me away, right?"

Ye Li examined Cindy's new spider-silk outfit, hmm... it felt even more erotic than not being wrapped.

Cindy wrapped one arm around his waist, shot out spider silk, stuck it to a teaching building, and took him flying, "I still have many things to tell you; this is very important! Our identities are more dangerous than you imagine!"

Ye Li held her clothes and took out his phone, "Then I'll notify Skye and the others first, saying I'm going out on a date with you, so they don't worry?"

"Wh... whatever you say."

……. ===== CHAPTER 55 =====

"Damn it! Damn it!"

"The circuit plans for the company were all my ideas; why should the credit be stolen by those guys at the top!"

Maxwell "Max" Dillon was an electrical engineer at Oscorp.

He was drinking to drown his sorrows on the roof of a building, empty beer cans thrown all over the ground, and he was getting closer and closer to the edge.

Since he was a child, Max had believed he had talent in electrical engineering and wanted to become an electrical engineer.

But his single mother thought he wasn't smart enough to succeed and made him go to a factory to work as a wireman.

After working hard for half his life, Max had finally managed to land an electrical engineer position at Oscorp.

But because of the irritable temper he had developed growing up in a single-parent family, his colleagues didn't like him, and he was just a transparent person in the company.

During a major circuit overhaul at the company, he seized the opportunity and provided an excellent plan.

He had expected to be appreciated, but his superiors had stolen all the credit!

The lack of recognition from those around him and his lack of success at work.

Had led him to climb onto this roof.

While drinking to drown his sorrows.

He was aimlessly scrolling through the news.

[Shareholder disputes at Oscorp, currently in chaos, many unprofitable or low-profit research projects have been stopped, the future is uncertain...]

"Heh, it's good that it's chaotic."

["Green Goblin" Norman Osborn latest news, his body has still not been found, experts suspect he faked his death to escape guilt...]

"Norman? Heh, good riddance, pop the champagne!"

[Tony Stark announces the closure of the Stark Industries weapons division, causing an uproar, shareholders are selling off their Stark Industries stocks...]

"Bastard, he cost me a large sum of money! Damn capitalist! They should all die!"

[Ghost-Spider has recently destroyed multiple gang strongholds and provided multiple clues to the NYPD. The person behind the gangs is known as "Tombstone"... Fans evaluate her as the most approachable superhero, but Lady Knight fans seem to have a different opinion...]

"Superheroes? Can they save my damn life!"

Max, becoming more and more angry as he read, closed the screen and didn't look at the next news item about [Black Spider suspected to have appeared in Afghanistan].

Feeling that life was hopeless, under the influence of alcohol, he walked to the edge of the building and wanted to jump.

He didn't notice that not far from him, two people huddled together had swung over.

"Cindy, your home is so far away; going to school must be quite troublesome."

Ye Li had ulterior motives, "Why not move to my manor? Water and electricity are free, rent is free, and I can hire a driver to pick you up and drop you off."

"I'm afraid you'll eat me."

Cindy twisted her body, "Teacher, can you put your hands in a better place? Don't touch randomly in strange places. Be careful I lose my grip, and we both fall."

"I'm just curious about the material of your spider silk; besides, you don't seem to mind."

"It's all because of that strange attraction!"

Cindy: "Clearly the teacher was so graceful in class; if Felicia knew you were so erotic, she would definitely be disappointed!"

"I think she would be quite excited."

Ye Li was about to tease her a few more words when he heard the system issue a message: [Detected Gwen Stacy's enemy of destiny, "Electro", Maxwell "Max" Dillon]

Huh?

Ye Li sensed it and also discovered Max on the roof of the building, and he was the "N-word" version.

Seeing him preparing to jump off the building at the edge.

Ye Li pondered for a moment and decided... to give him a hand.

Anyway, Max wanted to die, so he might as well brush up on some rewards; he just didn't know if "giving a helping hand" counted as a defeat.

Although the opponent seemed to be an ordinary person now, so what? Wait for the enemy to become stronger and pose a threat to his own women?

Being judged by the system as an [Enemy of Destiny] meant that as long as Max didn't change, he would clash with Gwen in the future.

Of course.

Ye Li also had integrity; he would just make a slight move.

If he could survive, he would let him go this time.

Anyway, even if Max became Electro later, he had ways to deal with him; it just wasn't as effortless as taking action now.

And so.

Just as Max was preparing to jump and end his life, he felt a strong wind push him from behind, as if helped by a god.

My god, does even God want me to die!?

Is my life really that much of a failure!?

With this thought, he fell from the roof.

It was just that, contrary to Ye Li's expectations—at the same time, Cindy happened to be swinging from this direction!

"What is that! We're going to collide!"

Cindy subconsciously shot out a large spider web, covering Max and sticking him to the glass window of a building.

"Scared me to death; if you want to die, can't you die further away?"

Cindy patted her chest in fear.

Her Spider-Sense and speed were stronger than Gwen's, but her strength and physique were a notch lower.

If they had collided, it definitely wouldn't have felt good, not to mention she had Ye Li in her arms.

"Uh..."

Ye Li saw Cindy's shocking words, as if she had shown another side, and asked her strangely, "Aren't you a superhero? Why tell someone to go die further away?"

"Who told you I was a superhero?"

Cindy reminded him, "Let me tell you, don't learn from Ghost-Spider and be a superhero just because you have some abilities. We are actually unable to protect ourselves; I'll tell you in detail when we get there!"

Ye Li didn't care; wasn't it just the Inheritors family? He naturally knew, but he didn't care. ===== CHAPTER 56 =====
