"When are you coming back?"

Petra put away her phone, pretended not to see the message, and continued to wander.

After a great war, the British wizarding world seemed a little deserted, and the number of students in Hogwarts was reduced by a fraction.Some went to evacuation and have not come back yet, and some ran away with their families after the war liquidation...

She is an ordinary person who doesn't know magic and walks around Hogwarts swaggeringly, but no one cares.After saying goodbye to Harley, she didn't know where to go for a while.

Everyone has a magical dream when they were young, but Petra has already passed the age of receiving letters from owls, no matter how envious she is, she will never have any unrealistic fantasies.

She decided to check out colleges that might accept her application.

Gwen studied at Oxford for half a year, and this was the first time they had contacted.

It would have been embarrassing to talk about the last farewell, so neither of them talked about it.Gwen was surprised by her arrival, seemed quite happy, and warmly invited her to visit the campus.

"Why did you suddenly think of coming here?" He thought for a while, then raised his eyebrows, "Suddenly interested?"

"Oh...I'm thinking about it." Petra chose her words carefully.Then, she suddenly remembered that Gwen had said the same thing back then, and couldn't help laughing.

Gwen laughed too. "I thought you weren't going to leave New York. You loved it so much—"

She said vaguely, "Well, uh, I have to come out to see the world once in a while."

"What about your superhero dreams?" Gwen asked again.

Seeing Petra's expression became tangled, he understood, and his smile became softer: "Who did you have a conflict with?"

She shook her head.

Gwen didn't pursue it to the end, and glanced away inadvertently, and saw a man wearing a knitted hat passing through the corridor not far away.The distance was a little far, and he didn't have time to say hello.

"Look, that's our professor, Mr. Lupton." He gestured to Petra, "He likes you very much."

like me?do we know each other?

Petra looked suspiciously. Mr. Professor was in a hurry, but she had good eyesight, and she saw at a glance that under his unbuttoned coat, the head of the Spider-Man support club was actually printed on the sweater inside.

A super cute spider head!

"Has my reputation come to England?" she was shocked.

"Well, maybe you can say that." Gwen hesitated for a moment, leaned over and lowered her voice, "I'll tell you a secret, his daughter was studying at Hogwarts, and you saved her during the Great War a few months ago—this is Mr. Lupton told me secretly, although he didn't say the name of Hogwarts, but I guessed it based on the time—later, he became your loyal fan."

"..." Petra was lost in thought.

The world is really small.

"He is very nice, and the lectures are very interesting. If you want to come—" Gwen paused and smiled slightly, "You can have 'Spiderman' come too."

Gwen told her a lot of academic knowledge just now, the project he is working on, and how much support the college has provided... Petra was a little moved when she heard it, and nodded: "I'll think about it again."

"Your phone is ringing," Gwen said.

Petra didn't say a word, and he reminded gently: "It seems to be the second time."

She could only take out her mobile phone from her pocket, and it was still a text message. She only glanced at it, then covered the screen guiltily, and looked around: "Um... is there any delicious fast food restaurant here? I want to go back after lunch .”

The "going back" mentioned this time means going back to New York.

Gwen understood, hummed, and slightly curled her lips: "Let's go, I invite you."

Superheroes never have to worry about buying a plane ticket.

Just after eating, the iconic portal of the Supreme Mage appeared between Petra and Gwen.She looked at Gwen, put down the paper bag of chips, and rolled up a piece of paper to wipe the oil from her hands.

"I'm going back!" She was still a little bit reluctant.

"Go slowly." Gwen said goodbye to her unhurriedly, "See you next time."

He had a hunch it wouldn't be long.

indeed so.

The next moment she returned to New York, Petra decided to put her application for a scholarship to Oxford University on the agenda.There is still a year, there is plenty of time, and Aunt Mei also supports her and helps organize the materials she needs.

"England, that's a long way away." Mei was a little bit reluctant, "I won't be able to visit you often."

"I'll be back for the holidays," Petra promises.

"Then..." Mei Zhuang asked casually, "Is Harry going too?"

She was stunned.

"The young man from the Osborne family," May reminded her, "he was thrown to London by his father last year. Are you familiar with him there? If you go together, I will be more at ease if you can take care of each other."

A girl went to school alone in a different place, so it was no wonder Mei was worried.

Petra just smiled slightly, thinking to herself, it doesn't matter who takes care of whom.If there was any danger... well, it goes without saying that it would be her going to save Harry.

Her friends also raised their hands in favor of her decision.

"New York can no longer satisfy our ambitions." Aiwa said confidently, "It's time to go on a journey to the world!"

Danny was silent for a while, unable to bear to remind her: "The premise is that you have to pass the exam."

Aiwa: "..."

Aiwa was lost in thought.

Then, Luke patted Petra's shoulder heavily: "We will support you mentally."

"Are we going our separate ways?" Petra asked.

"Of course not!" Aiwa came back to his senses, and immediately answered with a smile, "We will help you continue to protect New York, so that you can rest easy."

"We can visit you on vacation," Danny said too, thoughtfully. "My lawyer said I could use the group's private jet."

"..."

— "To Oxford? Seriously?"

"Yeah." Petra nodded seriously, "I'm not kidding."

So, Mr. Tony Stark put his arms around his chest and looked at her delicately.

"I think you're avoiding me." His eyes suddenly lit up, and his tone was very confident.

"No..." Petra said, her face flushed—or maybe it was because her brain was congested.Then, she let go of the spider thread, let herself fall from the ceiling, and returned to the positive world of normal people.

The living room at the Avengers base was empty again.

Probably because after the festival, everyone was busy with tasks again. At the end of the year, even the Avengers wanted to improve their performance——Petra guessed.

Anyway, it's just her, Tony, and Friday floating on the screen right now.The surroundings were so quiet that she was so flustered that she didn't dare to raise her eyes to meet him.

Seeing her wandering eyes, Tony couldn't help sighing, making his tone softer: "So, did I scare you, huh?"

It was very sudden, he had to admit—but he was also frightened by this little girl, who would have thought that she would suddenly become bold?Who would have thought that she would turn into a turtle again in the next second?

"I thought..." Petra whispered, tongue tied, "it was just my, uh, delusion... I'm not your type!"

"Nonsense." Tony interrupted her succinctly, "Who have you ever seen me treat so well?"

Petra thought about it seriously, and quickly replied: "Miss Potts."

"...That's already in the past, don't count." Tony also answered very quickly, waving his hands smartly as a past event.

Petra: "Oh."

"So?" He raised an eyebrow.

"So..." Petra hid her face behind her knees, wrapped her arms around her legs, and finally said, "I don't know..."

There was another sigh on the other side.

Petra rubbed her ears and pursed her lips: "I don't know what others will..."

"Do you care what other people think?"

She shook her head: "No, but—"

"There will be a little trouble." Tony said as lightly as possible, "I know how you feel, kid. For example, that aunt who cares about your future..."

Yeah, I didn't even dare tell her that I was Spider-Girl.Petra thought.

He reached out and stroked her cheek gently.The fingertips that have been in contact with machinery all year round are a bit rough, but warm.Petra was a little surprised, but she didn't dodge, and raised her head slightly, as if to cater to this action.

"She's more aware than you are." Tony smiled meaningfully, "But it doesn't matter, I'm very good at dealing with women."

"..."

She seemed to understand, and her face turned even redder.

"You think I'm not prepared for anything?"

"I have no idea……"

"Frankly speaking, I did hesitate for a while. Maybe, if it weren't for you..." Tony said thoughtfully, paused, seeing Petra's extremely embarrassed expression, he couldn't help chuckling: " Don't worry, I still have the bottom line before you reach adulthood."

This playboy for many years tried his best to put on a benign expression. Just looking at his deep eyes, he was still very convincing—or, I don't know if it should be persuasive or deceptive.

Petra was dazed, all she remembered was nodding.Then, the man's face came closer - she closed her eyes subconsciously, but this time, it was a light touch on the forehead.

"But." Petra pressed her hot cheeks and said blankly, "I want to go to Oxford to study at university."

"So?" Tony didn't understand why she was still worried.

She said, "I broke up with Gwen because—"

Tony: "...Do you have to say such a spoiled thing? Are you sure?"

"Because," Petra hesitated and gritted her teeth, "I don't think long-distance relationships are easy to talk about."

"..."

In the end, he just pinched her cheek rather helplessly.

"What a silly girl."

Petra didn't figure it out until a year later.

That was the first time Harry saw Harry put his arm around his godfather, very close, whispering something.He stayed where he was, bewildered.

This atmosphere... He didn't misunderstand anything, did he?

Petra reassured him: "No."

Harry took a short breath.

"Britain is really a more open place than I imagined." After witnessing the behavior of many homosexuals blatantly slapping on the street, Harry expressed emotion again.

Petra hesitated to speak.

"What are you doing here?" She couldn't help asking.

"Come to your opening ceremony." Harry replied naturally.

Petra also brought the spider suit to England. If she wants to continue to be a superhero, of course it is not convenient to live in the school dormitory.

But it doesn't matter, Harry is there anyway.He rented an apartment not far from the school, and just as Gwen was looking for a new landlord, he moved in with him.They are all familiar old friends, and they will always feel much more at ease.

As a result, on the first day of school, Petra was unsurprisingly late.

Obviously the apartment is not far from the school - but Harry and Gwen are not surprised at all.

Before going out, there was a bombing on the block next door to them.

On the current affairs news on the mobile phone, Harry witnessed the video of his friend walking between the buildings... His hands trembled, and when he looked up, Petra was panting and holding a shoulder bag, standing firmly against the wall.

She quietly sneaked into the crowd from the back row of the auditorium.

Harry made room for her.Petra smoothed out the folds on the collar as if nothing had happened, and then stood up straight: "Where did I go? I didn't miss anything important, right?"

Harry shrugged.

"President's speech, famous alumni's speech - blah, blah, blah blah, that's all."

"It's not over yet?" Petra asked again, wiping the sweat from her brow with her sleeve.

"There is another link." Harry said, looking forward, he was taken aback suddenly.

Petra followed suit.On the podium where everyone was watching, the man in the suit looked over with a smile that was not a smile. After a while, she took a deep breath and quickly covered her face.

Why is Tony here to give a speech to this group of freshmen? !

He is not an Oxford alumnus!

However, at this moment, Petra also finally understood.

For Tony Stark—

In this world, long-distance love does not exist at all.
