Even after Ébourg left, Clark was still in a daze.
This was the first time he had felt the feeling of being protected …
Clark ate his supper mechanically as he thought hard about life.
Was he considered to have an organization now?
…
On the other hand, Ébourg, who had just returned home, had to face Peter's anger.
"You don't know how worried I was about you!" Peter lowered his voice and said sternly, "I searched the entire house but couldn't find you! I couldn't let Benshu and Aunt Mei find out! "
Peter would now go out on night patrol every night. Having just become a Spider-man, Peter was full of enthusiasm for this job. He wished he could roam the city all day to get rid of criminals.
However, Peter, who was still a high school student, still knew rationally that if he were to patrol the entire night, he wouldn't be able to go to class the next day. Therefore, he set a schedule for himself and had to return home at a certain time every day.
Usually, whenever Peter returned home, he would see Ébourg sleeping obediently. However, only today did Peter get reminded by Aunt Mei not to wake Ébourg up when he returned home. In the end, when he opened the door, there was no one.
Peter searched the entire house but couldn't find Ébourg. Then he remembered that Ébourg could teleport, so he sat in the room with a sullen face and waited for him.
Therefore, when Ébourg returned home, he looked up and met Peter's worried and angry eyes.
"I'm sorry, Peter," Ébourg whispered and pulled Peter's sleeve, but the latter avoided him angrily.
Peter glared at him. "Where did you go?"
Ébourg pursed his lips. "I went to New Mexico."
He hid the fact that he went to see Clark.
"How dare you?" Peter widened his eyes. "It was dark! You're just a child! You went to the wilderness alone! What if you run into danger?! "
"No, Peter," Ébourg said quickly. "It won't be dangerous."
Abel could not imagine that he would be in any danger on Earth.
"How can there be no danger?!" Peter roared. Then, he suddenly realized that he would wake up Benshu and Aunt Mei next door. He lowered his voice and said through gritted teeth, "What if you meet a bad guy? And there were snakes there! Maybe you'll run into a poisonous snake and get bitten. God, if that happens, I won't even know. I won't be able to save you! "
Ébourg knew that what Peter said was not a threat to him, but Ébourg still apologized in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Peter. I won't go there alone next time."
With that, Ébourg grabbed Peter's sleeve and shook it gently. He said pitifully, "Can you not be angry?"
Peter met Ébourg's big green eyes. He looked up at him pitifully, and his anger immediately subsided.
However, Peter still glared at him and asked, "What are you doing there? Are you still thinking about that hammer? "
Ébourg thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well … Yes."
"You can't eat a hammer!" Peter said, breaking down. "Oh my God! You must have pica! I asked my biology teacher. I must take you to the doctor tomorrow! "
"I didn't eat it again! Really, Peter! " Ébourg quickly said, "I just wanted to take a look, and the hammer was gone, so I didn't eat it."
Peter rubbed his face. "Then you shouldn't have gone."
"I was wrong, Peter …" Ébourg said pitifully.
"There definitely won't be a next time!" Peter warned him.
Ébourg nodded repeatedly.
Peter looked at him for a while until he felt that he really knew that he was wrong. Then, he sighed.
He turned around to turn on the computer and said, "Come here, Ébourg. I have to show you this."
Ébourg ran over, and Peter opened a news webpage again.
He said, "I didn't find any information about that mutant, but Ned helped me find this. It was a terrorist attack a few years ago. The mutant Magneto attacked the White House."
The news webpage described the incident in detail, and there were pictures and videos below.
"There was also a group of mutants involved. They probably advocated for getting closer to ordinary humans. He stopped Magneto's attack …"
…
In the end, Peter didn't take Ébourg to the doctor.
That was because he wanted to scare Ébourg. After all, Ébourg was a mutant. Even if he was really sick, he couldn't openly go to the hospital for a check-up. It would be bad if his identity was exposed.
The next morning, when Peter went to school, he repeatedly reminded Ébourg not to run around. Only then did he go to school.
Aunt Mei also went to work. Only Ébourg and Benshu, who was still recuperating, were at home. Benshu found Ébourg some of Peter's childhood toys. Ébourg sat on the sofa and played with building blocks, while Benshu read the newspaper.
When it was almost ten o 'clock, Benshu looked up at the time. He narrowed his eyes and took off his glasses. He said to Ébourg, "Ébourg, come with me to buy groceries."
Ébourg looked up at him. Just as he was about to nod, he saw Benshu shaking his head and saying, "Let's go.
I'll go alone. I'm too slow now, and there are too many people in the supermarket at this time. If I don't pay attention to you, it won't be good if you get lost. "
Ébourg looked at Benshu standing up slowly. He looked up and said, "I won't get lost, Benshu."
Benshu frowned and looked at him for a while, hesitating.
Whether it was taking Ébourg to the supermarket or leaving Ébourg alone at home, he was worried.
In the end, Benshu sighed and said, "Okay, I'll take you with me. It's better to keep an eye on you than to go alone."
Ébourg smiled and climbed down from the sofa. He climbed to the clothes rack and said, "Benshu, I'll help you with your coat!"
…
When the two of them walked slowly to the supermarket, there were indeed many people in the supermarket. At this time, everyone was out to buy groceries.
Ébourg volunteered to help Benshu carry the shopping basket. However, because of his height, Ébourg actually put the shopping basket on the ground and pulled it forward.
When the people around them noticed this, they would all laugh in a friendly manner.
Benshu laughed as he watched Ébourg follow him around with the empty basket. When they passed by the candy rack, he gave him some lollipops and coaxed him that it was a reward.
However, no one noticed that the basket was actually floating about one centimeter above the ground.
Except for a man wearing a mask standing in the beverage area.
Ébourg felt something and turned his head. He happened to meet Erik Rancier's probing eyes and gave him a cute smile.
Erik was stunned and raised his eyebrows.
…
Peter didn't go on night patrol today because he had a lot of homework and really didn't have time to go out. However, he also brought a piece of good news.
"The school organized a visit to the Captain America Memorial Museum. I checked and found that children under the age of 12 can go there for free. I can take Ébourg with me!" Peter mentioned this during dinner.
Peter always felt that Ébourg was very interested in Captain America, so he thought that he could take Ébourg to see it this time. Ébourg said that he had never been there before.
"But can we take Ébourg with us if it's organized by the school?" Aunt Mei asked.
After all, school outings usually started from the school and everyone took the school bus together. Obviously, Ébourg couldn't get in.
However, Peter shook his head and said, "It's okay. Because it's a weekend visit, the school won't send a car. We have to gather at the entrance of the museum on time, so it's okay to take Ébourg with us."
"Well, it's good that Ébourg has to go to the hospital for a final check-up in a few days. He can go on the weekend, so we don't have to worry about no one at home to take care of him," Aunt Mei said.
Benshu's health had improved a lot in the past few days, but after all, he wasn't a young man like Peter. He still needed to rest for a few more days after spraining his waist, so the doctor repeatedly told him that he must go for a check-up on time.
Benshu originally planned to go on the weekend in the morning, but to accommodate Peter's schedule, he changed it to the afternoon.
On the weekend, after lunch, Peter took Ébourg out.
Aunt Mei bought a red cap for Ébourg. Ébourg hid all his hair in the cap, which finally made him look like a little boy.
Peter held Ébourg's hand and took the subway. Fortunately, the subway wasn't crowded today, and there were many empty seats. As soon as they got in, Peter sat down and leaned against the carriage to take a light nap.
Last night, he went on a night patrol again, and because the next day was a weekend, he came back in the middle of the night. He originally planned to catch up on sleep this morning, but he didn't expect that Aunt Mei would ask him to help clean the utility room. Now, he was so sleepy that he could barely open his eyes.
Ébourg sat next to him, took out the lollipop that Benshu gave him from his pocket, unwrapped it, and slowly ate it.
At the next station, the subway door opened again. The people who arrived at the station went down, and then another person came up. A man in a dark jacket sat in the seat opposite Ébourg.
As if feeling a strong gaze, Ébourg raised his head and saw that the person opposite him was staring at him.
Ébourg looked at him, then looked at the lollipop in his hand and asked, "Do you want to eat lollipop too?"
Erik was stunned. He smiled and said, "Are you willing to give it to me?"
Ébourg looked at the lollipop in his hand, then reached out and handed it over. "Here you go."
He was very straightforward and didn't seem like a child who liked to eat lollipop at all.
Erik didn't know what he was thinking at that time, but he really reached out and took it. As he stretched out his arm to take it, he looked at Ébourg's expression. Sure enough, he found that although this child gave the lollipop happily, he was looking at the lollipop reluctantly.
That expression was exactly the same as his precious daughter, Nina.
Thinking of this, Erik couldn't help but reveal a smile.
At that moment, Peter, who was finally awakened by the spider's senses, opened his eyes abruptly and happened to meet Erik's smile.
"Ébourg, look! This person's smile is exactly the same as yours! "
