Chapter 24 The God Hidden in the City
After school, Lorraine made an appointment with Peter Parker to visit Gwen.

If she didn't use Peter's name, Lorraine really had no reason.

Gwen's home is in an upscale apartment on Parklo Avenue.

Lorraine bought some fruit on the way and rehearsed her words in her mind, hoping to leave a good impression on Stacey and his wife for the first time.

However, when he arrived at the door of the apartment, Peter rang the doorbell for a long time, but no one answered.

"Maybe he went to the hospital?" Peter looked worried, "Could Gwen's illness be more serious than I thought?"

……

"Mr. Stacey, the inspection report is out."

In the hospital, the doctor held a report with a heavy expression on his face.

This emotion also infected the middle-aged couple in front of him.

George Stacey was a burly middle-aged man with a steady temperament who had been fighting criminals for many years. He said in a deep voice: "How is the situation?"

"It's very unsatisfactory." The doctor handed the report to George. "Your daughter's body is obviously normal in all aspects, but her body functions are constantly declining, and the reason cannot be found at all."

"How could this happen!?" George couldn't accept this result.

"In fact, our hospital also admitted several patients like your daughter yesterday. They were gang members sent by the police."

"I know this." As the police chief of New York City, George naturally understood what happened last night.

Gangsters on the dock trade dangerous goods, and a leak causes the factory to explode.

But what does this have to do with Gwen? !

The doctor explained: "The patients sent last night had the same symptoms as your daughter. Their bodies are normal but their functions are declining, but the rate of decline is dozens of times that of your daughter."

George immediately asked: "What is the situation of those patients now? Have you found a solution?"

"terribly sorry……"

The doctor whispered, "Those gangsters didn't make it through last night."

"Oh!"

After hearing the news, Gwen's mother Helen Stacy finally couldn't hold on any longer. She fell into her husband's arms unable to hold back her tears.

She sobbed and asked: "Then...what will happen to Gwen..."

The doctor was silent, not daring to answer the question.

But this attitude is actually an answer.

Mrs. Stacey cried even harder, why did her daughter suddenly encounter such misfortune!

But what she didn't understand, George Stacy already knew.

"hateful!!!"

George Stacey's hand holding his wife couldn't stop shaking.

revenge!This is the gang's revenge on itself!
The dangerous items leaked last night might have been an accident. The original purpose of the gangsters' deal was for him, the police chief!
Since you want to take revenge, you should take revenge on yourself!

Why hurt Gwen!

George couldn't wait to go back to the police station now to gather people, find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and make him pay a heavy price!
But George still had to suppress this anger first. The most important thing now is Gwen!
She is still in a high fever and coma.

George tried to calm himself down and said, "Doctor, you just said that Gwen's situation is still a little different from those of the gangsters. Could it be that you made a wrong judgment?"

"Mr. Stacy." The doctor said in a very slow tone, "If you wish, we will do another check-up on Miss Gwen, but her current condition cannot be delayed. If measures are not taken to alleviate the decline in physical skills, she will Very likely……"

The doctor didn't go on.

George suddenly felt helpless: "Then what measures can you take? What can I do?"

The doctor did not answer directly, but said softly: "Maybe the latest targeted gene therapy will be effective."

"Then try it!"

George Stacy was so disheartened that he could only temporarily accept the doctor's advice.

When they returned to the ward, they were heartbroken to see their daughter who was still suffering from a high fever. "Gwen..."

Mrs. Stacey reached the ward, held her daughter's hand, put it against her forehead, and sobbed silently.

George's face was livid, and he had so many thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't think of any solution.

At this time, every second seems as long as a year.

"Mother……"

A call made Mrs. Stacy look up suddenly, and she quickly agreed: "Gwen, mom is here!"

But there is no further text.

The call just now was just Gwen's unconscious call due to high fever.

"Mom...Dad...Lorraine..."

Every call made Stacey and his wife feel more painful and guilty.

They don't know who Lorraine is, maybe he is someone their daughter likes.

Yes, unconsciously, Gwen has grown up.

I have someone I like.

But as parents, they have no idea.

Do they not care enough about their children?
Is this the first time Gwen has someone she likes?Why should we encounter such misfortune at an age that should be blooming like a flower?

She obviously still has a lot of youth to enjoy!
George Stacy was filled with self-blame. He felt that he had caused his daughter to suffer.

After a hard inner struggle, he spoke with difficulty, his voice hoarse: "I'm going to find the guy named Lorraine. If he's around, Gwen will feel better."

Mrs. Stacey did not object. He knew that her husband had a way to find Lorraine.

George left in a hurry, leaving only Mrs. Stacey and Gwen in the ward.

"Gwen, don't be afraid, mom is here with you."

Mrs. Stacey wiped Gwen's hair away from her forehead due to sweat, her eyes full of doting and tenderness towards her daughter.

If Gwen is gone...

Such thoughts just crossed his mind and were quickly extinguished by Mrs. Stacey.

Will not!Certainly not!

If Gwen was gone, she would go with her and never let her children feel alone!
"Madam, I know how to save your daughter."

At the moment when Mrs. Stacey made up her mind, a gentle female voice suddenly came to her ears.

It was a nurse, and Mrs. Stacey was so focused on Gwen that she didn't even hear anyone come in.

But what she just said made Mrs. Stacey seem to be grasping at straws.

"You said you know how to save Gwen!?"

"Yes!"

The nurse said softly, "It's just that there may be a price to pay."

"Any price is acceptable!" Mrs. Stacey said without any hesitation, "What do you want? As long as I can save Gwen, I can meet all your requirements!"

But the nurse just shook her head: "I don't have this ability, madam, but I know who can save your daughter."

"Who!?"

"Then please let me introduce to you the god hidden in this city, the savior of us lower class people."

The nurse’s eyes revealed endless fanaticism, “Their names are——

"Shadow Council!"
