Chapter 12
After the "black light virus" swallows the organism, it has the function of absorbing the memory of the organism.

And it can change into the appearance of the absorbed life body, imitating the generated life body, almost exactly the same as the original owner.

The principle is not complicated. When the virus touches the surface of the organism, it quickly senses the hardness, texture, and size of the material, and obtains the color data. After the absorption is completed, it can alienate itself into the data just obtained.

After changing shape and becoming the mutant Huey, Peter stretches out his arms.

With a slight movement of the mind, the right hand distorted and deformed, the black tentacles squirmed, and after a while, it turned into a sharp hand knife.

The blade part is formed by the alienation of cells and looks like a metal blade. It emits a black and red shimmer, which is very eye-catching in the rainy night.

After devouring the mutant, the opponent's talent is also mastered by him.

However, compared with the hand knife of the original host, the hand knife evolved by the "Black Light Virus" is heavier, and the blade is no longer made of bones, and its appearance looks more metallic.

Feeling the alienated "Praying Mantis Knife", Peter suddenly swung the knife forward.

There was a sound of piercing the air. During the swinging process, the knife in the hand cooperated with the strength of the waist and abdomen, and the power conversion skills. During the swinging process, it continued to accelerate, like an afterimage, piercing the dark curtain of the rainy night.

The sudden acceleration of the hand knife during the swing, if it is used during the battle, it will indeed catch people off guard.

unfortunately
Peter shook his head.

This time you're not meeting normal humans.

Turning the knife in his right hand back into normal form, he re-read the opponent's memory.

Huey Hoffman grew up in a Catholic family, but as a mutant, he was naturally disgusted and hated by his parents.

Like all rebellious American teenagers, they struggled with self-awareness and could not escape, so they chose to run away from home.

After experiencing some twists and turns, he came to Hell's Kitchen to join the gang and became Jin Bin's subordinate.

At first, he was just an ordinary fish, but later, because of his aggressive personality, he became a full-time gang killer.

With the mutant's innate talent, he created countless blood debts and gradually became a cold-blooded animal.

"As a natural villain, you can count on what you want."

After reading a eulogy for Huey Hoffman, Peter took two steps forward and picked up the headset on the ground.

The headset was not absorbed by him, and it is still working now, with anxious voices coming from inside.

"Mantis? Are you okay? Hello, Mantis?!"

A hurried female voice called Huey.

"I'm fine, the other party has been killed by me."

Peter turned into Huey, and his voice became exactly the same as that of the other.

He pretended to be Huey and spoke back to the headset.

"Thank goodness, I thought you had an accident, did the bastard who robbed the laundry die?"

After confirming Huey's safety, the woman on the other end of the headset let out a long sigh of relief.

"I can't die any more. I still have something to do. Turn off the communicator first."

After speaking, he tore off the headset and crushed it.

After inheriting Huey's memory, he also had some understanding of the Kimbin gang.

Considering that the current strength is not enough to start a high-profile war with others, so he chooses to temporarily stabilize the opponent.

Using Huey's identity to talk to the other party, making the other party think that the person who robbed the laundry is dead, and Huey disappeared with the money.

This allowed the other party to focus their suspicion on the mutant Huey.

Throwing the shattered headset to the ground, Peter stepped on the rainwater at his feet and walked forward slowly.

the other side.

At this time, George Stacey, who had finished surveying the scene, came out of the room with his partner.

The two happened to pass by Peter.

Since Peter was wearing Huey's appearance at this time, George did not recognize him.

After the two passed by, George stopped, turned his head, stared at Peter walking in the rain, and frowned.

"what happened?"

Seeing his partner staring at a strong white man, Jeff asked him suspiciously: "Is there something wrong?"

"No, it's just. There's a weird feeling, feeling the other side"

"Not a nice guy, is it?"

Jeff interrupted George, "There aren't any nice people in this place, so don't be surprised."

George shook his head, looked away, and got into the police car with his partner.

The rain was getting harder and harder, and the "swooshing" rain quickly turned the city into a vast expanse of whiteness.

The next morning, it was sunny after the rain.

Queens, Forest Hills.

"We got a letter from Midtown High School in the mail."

Ben took a stack of documents from the mailbox and handed the top letter to May.

"From Midtown High?"

Mei accepted the letter in doubt, "This is the first time the school has notified us in this way."

As she spoke, she opened the envelope and read the words on it.

".So, the whole school staff raised donations in the name of Peter. Peter is a very good student. He has helped many people in school. We believe that this accidental injury was not intentional."

"Due to the school's position, we have decided to remain anonymous and we hope you will accept our assistance."

Hearing Mei Nian's words, Ben leaned over in surprise.

Mei looked up at her husband in surprise, and continued reading:

"We hope to help you through the difficult time as soon as possible. The faculty and staff of the whole school have made this donation. Finally, I would like to extend my sincere wishes."

After reading all the text on the letter, May pulled out a stack of banknotes from the envelope.

After counting, it was exactly 2500 US dollars.

After dozens of seconds, Mei recovered from the shock, "Is this true?"

"Wow, Peter is such a lovely kid!"

Ben took the letter from his wife, his words were full of joy and pride.

Mei held the banknotes, her hands trembling slightly, "This is really the best thing that happened to me in my life!"

There was uncontrollable excitement in her tone.

"Yes, we should be proud of Peter."

Ben said to his wife in relief.

On the other side, Peter on the second floor, with his back against the wall, listened to the conversation of the two below.

Naturally, the letter was not mailed by the school, and the US dollars in it were not collected by the school's faculty and staff.

He didn't make special contributions to the school, nor did he touch the top ten figures in the United States. How could the school go so far as to raise donations for him?

The letter was written by him, and the dollar bills inside were stuffed in by him.

As for the source of the money, it was the ill-gotten gains from the laundromat last night.

Considering that it is impossible for Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei to accept him as a high school student and get a lot of money for no reason, so he can only use this method.

"Peter, are you upstairs? Maybe you should come down and see, we've got a wonderful present."

Aunt Mei's voice came from downstairs.

"I'm here."

Peter adjusted his mood, pretended to be nothing, and walked downstairs to the two.
