The darkened Parker, Gwen’s little secret

~16 min read 3,103 words

​In the office.

Norman Osborne was waiting for Luo Xiu's answer. He was confident that Luo Xiu would agree to join his group, because he had the world's most advanced genetic research laboratories and scientific researchers there, as well as generous benefits, which he could not get as a middle school tutor.

"Yes, I can only go to the Osborne Group to do research when there are no courses. Of course, if you feel that you can't accept it, then don't talk about it." Luo Xiu said.

It is rare to come to a universe where the danger is not so great, of course it may be on the surface.

After all, it’s just a story surrounding Spider-Man, and the villains that appear won’t be that strong.

Luo Xiu also wanted to stop for a while, sort out his abilities, improve his body control, and also study science to see if he could use the power of technology to make further progress.

If he wants to control the molecular level, theoretical and experimental research are essential. That is not an ability that can be achieved through meditation. It requires many experiments and research on the structure of matter.

"Okay."

After Norman thought deeply, he agreed.

First of all, Luo Xiu is indeed a top talent in this field. One person is as good as his experimental team, and he doesn't want to miss it.

Secondly, perhaps due to experience and experience, he instinctively felt that Luo Xiu was not simple, and he was unwilling to offend him unless he had to.

In the United States, some extremists kidnap researchers to do too much for themselves.

Just like what happened to Luo Xiu in the Iron Man world, Dr. Ethan and even Iron Man himself were kidnapped by the Ten Rings Gang and kept making weapons in the cave.

"Wish us all a happy life."

After talking about some salary issues, Norman Osborne left Midtown High School.

As a tutor and professor here, Luo Xiu doesn’t have many classes, only three or four classes a week, and the rest of his time is quite free.

Luo Xiu turned on the computer and began to browse information about the world and collect intelligence.

Sure enough, there was news about the Avengers, the Hulk, Thor, and S.H.I.E.L.D.

But because it now belongs to the Spider Universe, the Avengers may have less presence.

Now, neither Gwen nor Peter Parker has become Spider-Man.

"I remember that the mutated spiders are in the radiation laboratory of the Osborne Group. I can study them when I go to the Osborne Group."

Luo Xiu had an interesting idea in his mind. The abilities of mutant spiders are not fixed. Some special abilities can be added through artificial genetic modification, thus giving Spider-Man other superpowers.

For example, invisibility, electric discharge, and flame spraying can all be given.

……

Midtown High School, playground.

Peter Parker takes photos everywhere with his camera and takes pictures of unique scenery. This is his hobby. Preserving the beautiful things of time gives him a great sense of accomplishment.

And his wish is to enter the largest newspaper in New York, the Daily Bugle.

However, daily necessities are not peaceful. He doesn't mess with other people, but trouble comes one after another.

Fleisher, a big man who felt that he had been robbed of the limelight because he and Gwen solved the equation left by Luo Xiu, wanted to teach Parker a lesson.

While Parker was taking photos, a basketball flew through the air and hit Parker in the face. Parker was caught off guard and dropped the camera in his hand, breaking it.

This blow was quite serious. Parker immediately had black and purple circles under his eyes and bleeding from his nostrils.

Ignoring the pain on his face, Parker immediately picked up the camera on the ground and was very sad to see that the casing was cracked and the lens was full of cracks.

When many students around saw this scene, they started to cheer as if they were watching a joke.

This kind of scene has become so common that it happens almost every day.

As the school bully, Fleisher chooses to bully based on his mood every day. If he is targeted, it will be very pitiful.

Fleisher walked up to Parker arrogantly and mocked: "Coward Parker, I hit you on purpose and broke your camera. Hit me!"

Seeing this, Parker smiled unnaturally, with a hint of cowardice in his eyes, and turned around to leave.

He didn't want to provoke Fleischer. This big bully had a notorious reputation. Fighting back would only lead to bigger beatings and ridicules.

Faced with Parker's show of weakness, Fleisher raised his hands proudly, greeted the cheers of the surrounding students, and enjoyed the pleasure of being noticed.

"Flisher, give Parker, an orphan without parents, a good beating." Among the crowd, a yellow-haired man booed, not wanting Parker to leave just like that.

Fleischer heard this and thought it was a good idea.

But when he heard that Parker had no parents, he frowned slightly because his parents were divorced and he was very sensitive to this aspect.

Turning around, he saw that Huang Mao was also a gangster from Zhongcheng High School. His name was Gordon, and he was a scumbag.

Fleisher walked up to Gordon and lifted the thin Gordon up with one hand. In full view of everyone, a violent blow came.He threw it over his shoulder and cursed angrily:

"Gordon, are you teaching me how to do things? Look at the garbage you look like, your parents must be proud of you."

As he said that, he punched and kicked him again, causing Gordon to scream repeatedly.

"Stop fighting, I surrender, I surrender." Huang Mao Gordon quickly begged for mercy. .

Fleisher was very proud and said:

"Okay, then you kneel down and crawl over, and I will forgive you."

Gordon's face was extremely ugly, but in order to avoid being beaten by Fleischer, he still chose to surrender.

He is a bad person and has no good reputation among his classmates, so no one is willing to stand up for him.

Fleischer was very satisfied with this. He stopped Parker and said: "Parker, my good friend, use your camera to take a picture of us."

"If you satisfy me, I'll give you a new camera and I won't cause you any trouble in the future."

Although Parker just dropped his camera, he can still take pictures.

Parker held the camera tightly and refused:

"Flisher, my camera is not designed to take pictures like this."

After hearing this, Fleisher felt that he was losing face and said loudly:

"Parker. Isn't it just to take a photo? Or do you care about this bastard Gordon? He just screamed for me to beat you up."

"It has nothing to do with this." Parker replied, mustering up the courage to look at the school bully Fleischer.

If he really took the photo, he would probably be ashamed for the rest of his life. This was a camera given by Uncle Ben, and he was speechless for doing such a shameful thing.

"Fuck."

Fleischer couldn't help it and rushed forward and punched Parker in the abdomen.

The powerful force made Parker curl up and fall to the ground, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

"I am unstoppable!"

Fleischer cheered and motioned to Gordon to pick up Parker's camera and take a photo of them.

In response, Gordon did not hesitate to grab Parker's camera and prepare to take pictures.

He would not be as stupid as Parker and offend Fleischer for the sake of his so-called self-esteem.

Parker was in unbearable pain. Listening to the ridicule and ridicule of the classmates around him, it would be impossible to say that he had no negative emotions at all.

He is also a human being, he also has seven emotions and six desires, and he also has hatred and anger.

"Why, why are you bullying me?"

Parker thought to himself, his inner emotions bursting out, looking at the ugly faces of the people around him, he was about to collapse.

At this moment, he felt that Uncle Ben's teachings about being kind to people were of no use at all. The nature of this world was too bad.

But he can't beat Fleischer, he's too weak.

"One day, I will make you regret it." Parker thought so, bearing Fries' shyness, his self-esteem was trampled to pieces at this moment, and there was a tendency to darken.

"That's enough."

At this moment, a scolding sound sounded, and Gwen, who originally didn't want to care about these things, came over.

She took away Gordon's camera, deleted the photos inside, and mocked:

"Gordon, at least don't be ungrateful. Parker didn't treat you like that just now."

Gordon's face turned ugly and he subconsciously took two steps back.

Fleischer walked up to Gwen and asked condescendingly, "Gwen, what does this have to do with you?"

"Flisher, do you think I want to care about your nonsense? But this time I went too far." Although Gwen is a little petite, her momentum is not weak at all.

"Don't think that because your father is the police chief, I won't dare to take action against you, Gwen. Be sensible and leave as soon as possible."

Fleischer pretended to be calm and threatening, which he thought was cool and manly.

"Flisher, he's a man, then do it. Don't care that my father is the police chief." Gwen didn't give up, but used words to stimulate him.

"You!" Fleisher was furious, feeling like he was riding a tiger with difficulty at this moment.

If he really takes action, Chief George will definitely put him in jail and ask for a half-month package, or even longer.

But if I don’t take action, I will have no courage, let others laugh at me, and I won’t be able to survive in school in the future.

The situation became tense for a time, and the two sides began to stalemate.

"It's so lively."

Luo Xiu, who had been watching the show for a long time, walked to the front of the crowd.

He didn't expect that Parker would have such a hard life before he became Spider-Man. He was bullied every day and couldn't straighten his waist.

"Professor Luo Xiu."

The students saw Luo Xiu, who had an extraordinary gentlemanly temperament. They all took the initiative to get out of the way.

Luo Xiu walked up to Parker and helped the poor Parker up.

"Thank you, Professor." Parker whispered, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.

"You're welcome."

Luo Xiu replied casually and looked at Fleisher and Gwen.

"Flisher, as a classmate, what do you think about bullying Parker?" Luo Xiu asked.

"Professor, we are just joking." Fleischer quickly explained.

He was domineering among his classmates, but when he saw Luo Xiu, his heart sank and he lacked confidence.

This may be the natural suppression of students by teachers!

"Parker, are you kidding?" Luo Xiu asked.

Facing Luo Xiu's question, Parker didn't know how to answer, and he found that Fleisher's eyes were full of threats, so he said timidly: "Professor, this is indeed a joke."

"..." After hearing this, Gwen had an expression of hatred for steel.

Professor Luo Xiu even came out to support him, but Parker still didn't dare to face the reality.

"Well, it turned out to be a farce."

"But since you are so free, why don't you do some voluntary labor?" Luo Xiu did not pursue the question.Go down and don't bother to seek justice for Parker.

"Professor, I'm actually the best at voluntary labor." Fleisher volunteered.

"Yeah, that's great."

"Today's senior toilet is clogged. Please clear it, Fleischer, and mop the floor. As long as it's done well, you'll get credits." Luo Xiu said with a warm smile.

"..." Fleisher's smile solidified and disappeared.

To put it bluntly, it’s not just cleaning the toilet.

Although there are credits to get, he doesn't care about the credits.

Originally, I wanted to finish middle school and then go out to hang out in society.

"Go." Luo Xiu said, waving his hand.

Fleischer reluctantly left.

"Classmate Gordon, you go too." Luo Xiu pointed to Huang Mao aside.

"..." Gordon.

Luo Xiu looked at Gwen again, and Gwen quickly waved her hand and refused: "Professor, don't let me clean the toilet."

"Classmate Gwen, you misunderstood. What I mean is that middle school is about to end and college entrance examination is about to begin. At this critical time, you must review carefully and strive to get into an ideal college." Luo Xiu said.

"Parker, you too. Study hard and work hard to change the status quo."

Luo Xiu looked at Parker, who was bowing his head next to him, and gave him some encouragement.

He actually didn't understand that Parker was submissive now, timid and unconfident.

Why did after becoming Spider-Man, he became a talkative person, talked a lot of nonsense, and was also a social bull?

Could it be a split personality?

"Well, thank you, Professor. I will do it." Parker took a deep look at Luo Xiu, and he felt the long-lost respect from Luo Xiu.

"Bye, Professor."

Gwen waved her hand and left the campus with brisk steps.

……

A secret warehouse near Zhongcheng Institute of Technology.

After leaving the school, Gwen came to the secret base without stopping. At the same time, she looked around and found that no one was following her. Then she entered the password and entered the warehouse.

The warehouse is not large, but it is filled with all kinds of fashionable musical instruments.

In addition to Gwen, there are three girls inside who seem to have different dressing styles.

One is Mary Jane, one is Geglia, and the other is Hannah, all students at Midtown Institute of Technology.

Because her grades were not good, Mary Jane wanted to debut as a star, so she formed a band, and Gwen, who was in the rebellious stage, joined as the drummer.

Although Gwen's grades are not as high-achieving as Parker's, with extraordinary talent, they are not much different, and she can get into a very good university.

But her father, George Stacey, was very demanding of her and insisted that she go to a prestigious university. He always used his distant cousin as an example, saying that this cousin was already a professor at a young age, and he was also a scientist and had multiple degrees.

To be honest, Gwen has never met this mysterious cousin.

Therefore, under constant nagging from her father, Gwen rebelled and just joined the band to vent her pressure.

"Gwen, why are you here?" Mary Jane asked.

Although Mary Jane is a high school student at this time, she looks mature and sexy in a red dress and wavy red hair.

"Something happened. The school bully Fleischer bullied someone again, and the bully was Peter Parker. I remember that Parker seems to be your neighbor, Mary Jane."

Gwen said, slowly sitting down on her drummer's seat, picking up two drum sticks, and getting ready to play hard.

"Parker is a good person and shouldn't be bullied all the time." Mary Jane said.

"Indeed, he was very timid and allowed Fleischer to be arrogant. Fortunately, Professor Luo Xiu came in the end, otherwise I would have had a fight with Fleischer." Gwen said carelessly.

"Gwen, are you serious? I think you will cry if Fleischer punches that big guy." Hannah, wearing casual clothes and glasses, laughed.

"..., it's impossible, I can also do a few captures." Gwen looked arrogant.

"But, don't you think that the new Professor Luo Xiu has a very mysterious temperament. Especially his eyes, I feel like stars, unfathomable, and my soul will sink when I look at them."

Geglia showed some infatuation, her eyes were full of longing and yearning.

Like Gwen, Geglia also has dazzling long golden hair, fair skin, and a tall figure.

"Very handsome. According to Professor Luo Xiu's background, he is already a successful person and a socialite. How could he come to our high school?" Mary Jane said, a little confused.

"Those big shots always have some strange hobbies, don't they?" Gwen said.

"I really want to have a romantic and wonderful encounter with Professor Luo Xiu." Geglia covered her face and smiled redly.

"Me too." Hannah looked fascinated, and her brain began to fantasize.

"??"

Gwen's face was full of question marks, not only Geglia, Hannah, but even Mary Jane also showed a thoughtful expression.

As for that? Why does it seem like you've never seen a man before?

Aren’t they here to practice music today? Why did Luo Xiu suddenly get involved?

"Luo Xiu!"

He looked at the police car that suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped in front of him. A middle-aged man also got out of the car.

This middle-aged man even called his name.

"You are?" Luo Xiu was surprised. He had no impression of this man at all.

Could it be that the panel also edited other interpersonal relationships for itself.

"I am your Uncle George." The middle-aged man said.

"??" LuoQuinn looked confused.

Seeing this, George explained:

"Your father and I used to be teammates. We had a life-long friendship, just like brothers. Later he became a pilot. During a mission ten years ago, your father's plane had an accident and he died unexpectedly."

"..." Luo Xiu was silent again. Is this another unfounded memory?

"Hey, I have been busy with work these years and have never gone to Manhattan to see you. I am really ashamed. I recently heard that you are here and you are also a tutor at Midtown College here, so I rushed over..." George continued to explain.

In the next few minutes, George explained his relationship with Luo Xiu’s parents. Although it was edited on the panel, it did not actually exist.

Luo Xiu probably figured out the relationship, and the man in front of him was George Stacey, whose name was very similar to Gwen Stacy. It was possible that they were father and daughter. This was such a coincidence.

According to seniority, he calls George uncle, while Gwen may have to call her brother, although it is not a close relationship.

"You haven't eaten yet. Come to my house tonight, and your uncle and aunt will help you clean yourself up." Chief George's eyes were concerned.

"Okay." Luo Xiu agreed. He had nothing to do for the time being anyway.
