Chapter 1226 Terrible Thoughts
"Morning, Peter."

Mary Jane, with her long red hair, youthful beauty and hot body, was walking in the school corridor and greeted Peter Parker who was walking towards her with a smile.

"Good morning, Mary Jane. It's a nice day today... uh."

Peter stuttered before he could finish his words when he noticed that Mary Jane had walked away, her raised hand awkwardly suspended in mid-air.

Heather and Gwen, who were walking not far behind, looked at each other with helplessness on their faces.

Gwen has done her best to bring Mary Jane and Peter together. Knowing that Mary Jane is a big fan of Ghost Spider, Gwen put on the Ghost Spider suit and asked Heather to take several photos and send them to Peter to attract Mary Jane to chat with him.

When a boy and a girl have common topics, the relationship will progress very quickly.

But Peter, a straight guy, had no idea about the "my cat can do backflips" routine. He foolishly sent the photo to Mary Jane, and then he was satisfied just watching her smiling face while holding the phone from a distance.

Then, the relationship that was originally slightly close gradually became distant again.

From sitting together and looking at Ghost Spider photos at the beginning, to now just saying hello and not even having time to listen to a response, both Heather and Gwen knew that Peter's relationship was over.

Yesterday, Peter told Heather that he wanted to invite Mary Jane to the prom. The prom would be held tomorrow, and this was his last chance. But now it seemed that it would be difficult for Peter to even send the invitation.

Bang!
Just as Peter was standing there in a daze, he was suddenly knocked to the ground with great force, and his glasses broke into pieces with a snap.

Ned held the basketball in his hand and looked down at Peter in a pretentious manner: "Oh, isn't this the insignificant Parker? Sorry, you were too small and I didn't see you."

"Ned! You'd better stay away from him!" Gwen immediately stood in front of Peter and glared at Ned.

Heather ran over and helped Peter up: "Hey man, are you okay?"

"I just wanted to remind Parker that an insignificant nerd like him has no business being at the prom."

Ned spun the basketball in his hand, a sneer on his fat face: "What, Stacy and Anon, are you two planning to be Parker's bird father and mother for the rest of your lives?"

Let's not talk about Gwen, the star of Midtown High School. Although Heather is a weak nerd, he has an indescribable aura, which is completely different from ordinary nerds. His previous "achievements" in Connecticut School also spread to Midtown High School. It is said that several school bullies who used to treat Heather as an ordinary nerd and wanted to bully him were inexplicably expelled from school, and it is said that it seems to have something to do with Heather.

Based on her ruthless and fierce record, the low-ranking school bullies at Midtown High School also indirectly acknowledged Heather's status in her high school career.

In addition, since Gwen, the "Flower of Midtown", was won over by Heather, Heather's status in Midtown High School jumped from the bottom of the food chain to the top.

But Gwen and Heather's younger brother Peter Parker doesn't have this treatment.

Even though the two of them took great care of Peter, they still couldn't change Peter's situation.

Perhaps because he didn't want to provoke Gwen and Heather, Ned said a few harsh words and then walked away with his group of friends, talking and laughing loudly.

Heather helped Peter pick up the cracked glasses and handed them to him: "I know a good glasses store. Do you want to go to it after school?"

Peter shook his head. "Dr. Connors' experiment has achieved some initial results. I have to go to the lab after school. Let's do it another day, buddy... Oh, thanks Gwen, see you later."

He took the tissue handed to him by Gwen and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He glanced at Mary Jane who was looking at him from a distance, then turned around and quickly left the corridor facing the sarcastic or indifferent looks of his classmates.

Gwen looked at Peter's retreating figure with some worry, "Is he okay?"

"Being bullied by Ned in front of Mary Jane, especially at this juncture when Peter was about to invite Mary Jane to the dance, the invitation to Mary Jane was 100% ruined. This was a big blow to Peter."

Heather patted Gwen's shoulder and said soothingly, "Don't worry, I'll have a good chat with him at the dance tomorrow."

"Hmm... By the way, how are you doing with your practice? I'll go to your rental house after school to check on your practice progress. Let me make it clear first, my requirements are very strict."

"Uh, I'll try not to step on your feet." Heather was not very good at sports, so she could only do her best.

"No! I'm going to give you a devilish training after school, so be prepared!"

"Haven't you been cleaning up the evil forces in Murdoch's territory after school recently? Do you still have time to supervise me?"

"It's okay to put things aside for now. That Iron Man has been trying to steal our jobs lately. It seems that he's getting anxious because he's lagging far behind in the popularity poll on the website. Let him protect New York City tonight."

During this period, the superhero voting campaign on the official website of the Hero Association was officially launched.

Citizens who have passed the real-name authentication can cast their precious votes in the existing list of superheroes, or they can list heroes who are not well-known but have done just deeds in the blank list.

Thanks to Toheiser's newly released novel "Under the Spider's Web" and Ghost Spider's efforts in the past few months, Ghost Spider ranked high in the popularity voting activity and became very popular.

It is said that a list of super villains is also being drawn up and will be announced in the next few days. At that time, the weaknesses and characteristics of the super villains on the list will be marked so that superheroes can target them.

At the same time, this list of super villains also means that the criminals and villains on the list have been deprived of their human rights by most countries in the world and are no longer protected by any law.

The Hero Association, which caused such a big fuss, did not even invite superheroes to be stationed at the headquarters, even though many superheroes volunteered.

Peter sat in the corner of the classroom, his fingers swiping aimlessly across the screen of his mobile phone.

The gossip about superheroes and the Hero Association that usually interested him could not attract his attention at this time.

As graduation approaches, I still have to stay alone in the corner of the graduation party, watching Mary Jane dance with others.

Why, Heather is a nerd just like me, so why can he date a beautiful girl like Gwen, but I can't even get close to the girl I like.

Just as he was daydreaming, he suddenly heard a familiar voice not far away. It was Mary Jane chatting with Betty.

"Look, Betty. Ghost Spider has cleaned up another block. The residents of this block can go out safely at night."

Mary Jane's voice was filled with undisguised longing.

The black-haired girl Betty chewed gum and said, "What a shame! If Ghost Spider was a boy, you would probably ask him to the dance, right?"

"Of course! If I had such an outstanding boyfriend, I would keep him by my side forever..."

Peter could no longer hear what the two said next.

There was only one thought in his mind - if he could become as dazzling as Ghost Spider and those superheroes, would he be able to win Mary Jane's heart?
Gradually, a terrible idea came into his mind.

lingering.
