Gwen Spider: I'm from Prototype

Chapter 186 Just solve the person who raised the problem
All Jessica said was some community service, which was quickly dismissed.

Because of the gangster who was beaten by her, the injury appraisal report was "severe cervical spine injury".

And demanded a compensation of 50!
"Severe injury and pain, and loss of earning capacity."

Jessica, who had been released on bail by Peter, read the above report in disbelief.

After a while, she put down the injury certificate in her hand, stood up and walked to the window.

She doesn't even have a few hundred dollars now, let alone half a million dollars.

She wanted to ask Peter for help, but she couldn't dial the phone number while holding the mobile phone.

"I can't always rely on Peter."

After a long while, she put down her phone dejectedly and sat down on a chair.

In the rented room, the outside sunlight shone in, adding some light to the room, but there was always a haze in her heart that could not be dispelled.

Back to school with a lot of worries, she received a text message from Peter before the class was over.

"You're going to be sued, aren't you, Jessica."

"Looks like that, the guys made me pay half a million."

Jessica sent a text message with a sad face.

Soon Peter sent her a text message, "I can help you pay 50."

"Really?"

Jessica was taken aback, "You will have 50? Well, I don't doubt you, but this is not a small sum."

"You just need to know that I have the money, but I'm not giving it to you for free, Jessica, just treat it as if you loaned it to me."

Jessica felt a little guilty, "I—how can I pay it back?"

She didn't think she was capable of repaying such a large sum of money.

"After you graduate from high school, work for me and pay back. Maybe I will set up a private detective agency or something, and you can just work there and pay back the money."

Seeing the text sent by Peter, Jessica was slightly confused.

what is this?
What kind of capitalist is Peter, has he started looking for workers now?

She felt like she was on a thief ship.

But after thinking about it, he has already dragged him into the pirate ship, do you have any other choice?

In the end, she hesitated for a moment, and sent a sentence, "Okay, I am willing to work for you as a migrant worker, anyway, I have been caught by you for a long time."

On the other side, Peter read the text on the text message and silently put away the phone.

The idea of ​​beating workers in vain is true, but the idea of ​​spending $50 is false.

He has a better way to solve the problem without spending money.

That is - just solve the person who raised the problem.

The next day, early in the morning.

Jessica soon received a dismissal of the charges against herself.

After she knew this, she was in shock and anxiety all morning.

Those gangsters did not file a lawsuit against themselves.

As for the reason, it wasn't that those guys suddenly realized their conscience, but that they seemed to be finished.

The group of bastards who were found killing each other all died strangely.

The police told themselves that they judged the cause of death to be cannibalism.

Because their fingerprints were on the murder weapon, and the monitoring also showed that one of them attacked the other members.

Although he himself, as the beneficiary of the incident, was very suspicious, in the end the police decided that the incident and himself were innocent.

"what is this?"

She let out a breath and sat back on the sofa.

Is this how your own affairs are settled?
Although the police quickly ruled her out as a suspect, she still felt a little uneasy.

Did Peter do it? !
No, no, the police said that the preliminary judgment was an internal firefight between the two parties.

The killer, a gang member among them, killed the gang leader and took almost all the cash.

In other words, Peter does not have to pay back the money for himself.

But
Why do I always feel that these things are inseparable from Peter?

After all, she watched Peter bring the dead back to life!
She wanted to call Peter to ask, but in the end she didn't make a call.

"Well, although the matter has been resolved, it seems that the other party has not released me as a worker."

Putting down the phone, Jessica let out a helpless breath.

Soon her phone vibrated.

Looking down, he found that it was a message from Peter to himself.

"It's settled."

"Uh, can I ask, is this about you? Peter, I mean, are those guys you..."

Jessica asked Peter cryptically.

"Do you want to say if I solved it?"

"There is such a doubt."

"I have nothing to do with rain."

Jessica frowned slightly as she looked at the text sent by Peter. She couldn't believe that it had nothing to do with Peter.

No one could do such a thing but Peter.

Peter was able to resurrect a dead person last time, and now it doesn't seem impossible to let them kill each other directly.

"how did you do it?"

Jessica typed and continued to ask the other party.

"I am a law-abiding citizen. Compared to me, Jessica, you are the one worthy of the police's suspicion."

Peter texted her, "Anyway, you don't have to be sued, but the agreement between us is not over, you still have to work for me."

"Well, I knew you'd say that, but I can't work until you start a detective agency or something, can't I?"

Soon her thoughts were pierced by Peter, "No, you can work now."

"How does it work?"

"Investigate someone for me, a guy who is suspected of being a mutant but thinks he is a magician."

……

On the other side, Forest Hills.

Because of the weekend, Gwen came to Peter's house early for dinner.

Seeing that Peter had been using his mobile phone to send text messages, her brows were frowned.

"Peter, are you chatting with someone else?"

"already solved."

Putting down the phone, Peter said to Gwen, "Sorry, there are some emergencies."

"It's not another girl, is it?"

Gwen asked Peter with a woman's intuition.

"No."

He lied without the slightest blush.

"Ok."

Gwen didn't continue to ask, but talked about other things, "You asked me the names of two people before, and asked me if I knew them. I went back and checked."

"Well, what did you find out?"

Peter picked up the coffee, took a sip of the slightly bitter taste, and asked her.

"As for the Magneto King you mentioned, I haven't found any relevant information, but the Professor X you mentioned seems to be the principal of a school."

Gwen told Peter the information she found, "And he seems to be a mutant, there are such rumors on the Internet."

"almost."

Peter nodded, "He is indeed a mutant, but...he is different from the mutant terrorists you know."

In modern society, mutants have always been marginalized and suppressed. Most people even equate them with terrorists.

In the mainstream media, Peter rarely sees them being mentioned.

They seem to be a forgotten bunch.

"Really? But I don't have a good impression of mutants when I think about that car blaster bastard."

Gwen said angrily.

She picked up the newspaper that Uncle Ben had ordered on the table, wanting to read the news on it.

Gwen frowned as she read the "gang fight" in the newspaper, "It seems to be getting more and more unsafe recently. Another car explosion and another gang fight."

At this time, Aunt Mei and Uncle Ben were not at home, and there were only two people in the room, so she didn't have to worry about speaking.

Gwen looked at the newspaper and complained to Peter.

"How do you feel?"

Instead of following Gwen's question, Peter asked her about other topics.

"I'm fine, why do you ask me so suddenly?"

Gwen blinked.

"Did the symbiont in your body have any effect on you? Or, did you feel anything strange?"

Peter asked her.

Gwen thought for a while, then shook her head, "No, it's just that I might have nightmares at night, some bad memories from the past."

"that."

Without waiting for Peter to speak again, Gwen suddenly coughed and asked Peter, "I heard from Dad that you helped Jessica go to bail last night."

"Well, she didn't want to contact her family, so she contacted me."

Peter didn't hide.

"But."

Gwen was a little depressed in her heart, and it showed on her face, "I always feel that she will come to you whenever she has something to do. Last time we went to Harry's villa, she confessed her love to you, Peter, I really doubt whether she still It has other meanings."

"I mean, she's getting too close to you."

"You know my relationship with her is unbroken, Gwen."

Peter explained to Gwen.

"I know, but you can't control her mind, can you?"

Gwen's expression was a little irritable, "Peter, sometimes you can't express your emotions, like or hate, or hate, or desire to get these emotions, you hide them in your heart, others can't observe your emotions, maybe this It will give other people an idea, which is what I'm worried about."

"Whether it's MJ or Jessica, I think it's because your attitude gave them the illusion."

Gwen said all of her thoughts at once.

Before, she didn't have such courage.

"You're excited, Gwen."

Faced with Gwen's obviously abnormal emotional outburst, Peter shook his head and said, "You treat Jessica and the others as enemies, but you don't have to. In my heart, you have always been the most different."

"Uh"

Hearing what Peter said, she froze for a moment.

"Well, I'll take it as your confession to me."

Although he was still a little angry, his mood was obviously calmed down a lot.

She also didn't quite understand why she was always so impulsive recently.

She was about to tell Peter about her recent mental changes, and by the way, keep Peter away from those girls.

Suddenly a piece of news was broadcast on TV.

Another car bombing occurred in the New York City area.

"Ah, I think I'm sorry for the time being, Peter."

Gwen stood up and said to Peter apologetically, "I can't watch that guy act recklessly in the city!"
