That night, when Belle went home, it was not yet nine o'clock.

She kicked off her shoes, walked into the kitchen barefoot, took a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc from the refrigerator, grabbed another glass, skillfully unscrewed the bottle cap, and poured herself more than half of the glass.

Belle loves this wine, which is commonly produced in Australia and New Zealand, because they don’t use corks, but screw caps, which makes the opening process simple and efficient.

"Hey, why are you back so early?" Helen asked a little surprised, "Didn't you go on a date?"

"Really? Is that what I said?" Belle said without hesitation, taking a big sip of wine.

"It seems that things are not going well." Helen's spirit of gossip ignited, "What's the matter? There was a quarrel?"

"No," Belle said, looking at Helen's expression, she quickly added, "Really."

Helen said: "Okay, but you have to know that no one will believe what a person who has not yet reached the legal age says after drinking."

"The last time I had a drink, I was in front of the president and the first lady," Belle said. "These two didn't say anything, so don't worry about it."

Ever since she met Deadpool's girlfriend Vanessa, drinking has become a daily activity for Belle.Most of the people around her were not surprised by this, except Captain America who would symbolically criticize her every time and then pretend not to notice.

"No matter what your reason is, drinking to drown your sorrows is not a good way."

Helen's tone of voice was really convincing.

"Actually, nothing happened recently," Belle said, "It's just that I always have a strange premonition that something is going to happen."

"No way, you still believe this?"

Faced with the question of scientist Helen, Belle said very seriously: "My premonition is very accurate, especially when something bad happens."

The two chatted for a few words and then went about their own business.

When Peter Parker went home that night, he felt very depressed.

He lay down on the bed and tossed and turned for a long time. He took out his phone and was stunned for a while. He wanted to send a few messages, but he didn't know what to say.

This matter has been going on for a long time. To put it bluntly, he felt that he and Belle seemed to have different views.

More importantly, he seemed to feel that the distance between himself and Belle was getting wider and wider.

Less than a year ago, the two of them were still in school, playing soy sauce in the Avengers together. Today, Spider-Man is still playing soy sauce, but Belle, a person who does not even have an official title, has unknowingly The ground left him far behind, not even leaving a trace of his back.

She made it to where she is now, but she was also shaped by the situation.She is no longer the little girl who was condemned by her conscience for accidentally killing someone, but has become a bit more decisive in killing.

She first killed Tilda Johnson without hesitation on a rooftop in Los Angeles, and then chopped off O'Connor's arm at Wilson's house.

Although these two people also asked for it, this violated the tacit consensus that Belle and Peter had always had: they themselves could not represent the law, let alone have the qualifications to enforce the law.They can bring evildoers to justice, but they cannot punish them privately.

Tilda's death can be said to be an accident, but the killing of O'Connor this time really crossed the line.

In addition, Belle asked him to rescue Matt Murdock, went to South Korea in person to bring back Helen Zhao, and found out about Louis Wilson.

For each person, Belle gave very reasonable reasons. Daredevil's ability is best suited to find the killer who threatens Aunt May. Helen Zhao is the best person in the world at saving people's lives. For charitable purposes, Helping a veteran is beyond reproach.

But Peter is not a brainless person. On the contrary, he is very smart, but he has never used this intelligence to deal with Belle.Now that he thought about it carefully, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Belle was doing seemed like she was deliberately recruiting these people.

Especially the "New York City People's Hospital Project" that she is preparing is disguised as a beauty salon, but is actually a medical emergency center equipped with top-notch equipment. Belle said it is to prevent the heroic vigilantes of New York from having any more... Due to restrictions, they cannot go to the hospital, thus delaying treatment.

With this hospital, all heroes will indeed benefit, but it will also make them all owe Belle a favor, which is not something that can be repaid easily.

If these people really gathered around Belle to repay their debt of gratitude, they would be a powerful force not inferior to the Avengers.

What is she going to do?

Peter was lost in thought when his cell phone rang unexpectedly, startling him.

"Are you ready for the content of the group discussion the day after tomorrow? fh."

When he saw the news, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was not a big deal.

He quickly replied with a message: "I sent it to you this morning. Didn't you receive it? Then I'll send it again."

Peter rolled out of bed with a sudden jerk, jumped to the computer, quickly turned it on, clicked on the mailbox, and sent another copy.

One minute later, he received another message on his mobile phone.

"I didn't receive it. There may be something wrong with the mailbox. Otherwise, find a time to meet up tomorrow and copy it to me in person. fh."

"Okay, see you in the library tomorrow morning."

Peter didn't think much and replied to the message. After seeing that the computer was turned on, he simply opened the browser and entered "Desperate Housewives", trying to find some clues about the club among the vast amount of American TV series information.

After searching for more than an hour, there was almost no news except a basic official website.

"This is really strange!" He said to himself, "How come such a big and famous club doesn't have any information leaked?"

This more than an hour of useless work not only did not make Peter feel frustrated, but also aroused his enthusiasm. He would definitely not give up until he found something.

When he came back to his senses from the computer, it was already eight o'clock the next morning.

"Damn it! Forgot to set the alarm."

He cursed secretly, hurriedly brushed his teeth, wiped his face, grabbed his schoolbag and rushed out.

When he arrived at the library door in a hurry, his classmates had been waiting there for a long time.

"I'm so sorry, Felicia, I overslept."

A girl named Felicia was sitting on the bench at the door of the library, looking at Peter who was disheveled and looked like he had run all the way here, but his face was not red and he was out of breath. This was like an iron lung.

However, the bloodshot eyes, obvious dark circles, and a livid patch of chin all indicated that it was not possible that he had overslept, but rather that he had not slept all night.

However, she did not expose Peter's lie, but followed his words: "Really? Actually, you can send me a message. There is no need to run in such a hurry. Have a cup of coffee first."

She patted the place next to her, pointed to the coffee at hand, and took out a tissue from her bag and handed it over.

"You still have toothpaste on your mouth."

"Ouch, I'm so sorry." Peter didn't even take the tissue, just wiped it with his hand.

Seeing him like this, Felicia couldn't even laugh or cry.

"You are really capable." She said this as if she was watching something funny. "I heard that your girlfriend is still a model. How did you hook up with someone like you? You can't be rich. Are you pretending to be poor like this second generation?"

"You mean Belle?" Peter said, "We are just friends, we just have a good relationship."

"What you said will make half the boys in the school angry to death, and the other half will have to take advantage of it."

"Let them be," Peter said. "If anyone has the ability to pursue her, I will pay for him to buy a proposal ring."

"When a boy says this, I usually think he is very confident, but for you," Felicia said, "I think you are not only rich, but also surprisingly generous."

"Don't make fun of me, aren't you talking about group assignments?"

"Come on, this gossip is getting louder. It would be a bit boring if I didn't elaborate on it. You haven't had breakfast yet? I'll treat you to this meal. You can have something to eat at the cafe opposite. Let me tell you about your model friend."

After a few words, the two of them seemed to have forgotten about the group homework. They did not enter the library at all, but went directly to Starbucks while talking and laughing.

The school is said to be a pure ivory tower, but life in the tower is also uncomfortable. Most people switch back and forth between being under great pressure and being idle.

Whether it is to relieve stress or relieve boredom, eating melon is a good way.

However, don’t eat melons randomly. The melons must be big enough and sweet enough to arouse the interest of the masses.This kind of melon is not often found.

Today, there happened to be one.

Peter Parker was originally an inconspicuous man, and few people noticed him. However, because he was the rumored boyfriend of a model who caused a lot of trouble, he suddenly gained the limelight.

Unfortunately, most of them are not good words.

You know, if there is such a combination of a poor boy and a rich girl, a nerd and a model, in a place like the United States where core values ​​have not yet been popularized, it will be a disaster if there is no gossip.

And the other half of this melon, Felicia Hardy, is also extremely popular, so much so that no one in the school doesn't know her.

In terms of appearance, she is definitely not inferior to Belle.When it comes to figure, even compared to Black Widow, she is not far behind.Coupled with her cheerful personality, enthusiasm and generousness, she is actually much more popular than Belle in school.

This is all in the past.

Now, most of the girls maintain a sympathetic attitude towards her and stay away from her, while a few of them gloat about her misfortune and just point at her when nothing happens.

Boys, this mentality is complicated.However, their actions were quite unified and they remained polite, but that was all.

The reason is simple. During her freshman year, she was raped.

Due to lack of evidence, the perpetrator is still at large and is even continuing his studies in school.

Ever since, Felicia's situation has become extremely difficult.

When everything is fine, appearance and figure are women's advantages, but once something like this happens, her angelic face and devilish figure bring her endless troubles.

"Why didn't he find someone else but you? Why don't you look coquettish like you wear every day?"

No matter how vigorous the TOO movement is, it is always difficult to improve the public atmosphere. Even universities that have always been at the forefront of the times are not much better.

Anyway, apart from Peter Parker, there were only a few people in the entire school who were willing to team up with her to complete group assignments.

The two topical characters were chatting enthusiastically together, so there was naturally no shortage of good people around them.

A girl secretly took a few photos with her mobile phone and wanted to send them to her friends.

"What's going on?" She said impatiently, looking at the annoying loading icon on the screen, "Why is there suddenly no internet?"

She was a little annoyed and stuffed her phone into her bag, ready to go find her friends and let them see it in person and communicate with them.

She walked a little hastily and didn't look at the road carefully. Somehow, she bumped into a lean boy wearing a college hoodie.

She complained a few times but didn't care. She ran to the classroom and wanted to share the big news she had just seen with her girlfriends. However, she searched all over her backpack and couldn't find her phone.

"Oops, I lost my phone!" See more!Prestige official account: hhxs665
