[Zhongyingmei] It's not a slime!

That night, after Peter fell asleep.

Ruby, who finished eating the last energy stone on Peter's stomach, said, "System, you have to trust me."

System: "Oh."

Ruby: "I really didn't leave because I haven't found a suitable S-class host body, not because I want to finish eating these desserts!"

The system sneered: "Explain to me what to do? I don't care."

Ruby: ...

She took a look at her remaining energy after swallowing three energy stones, and it turned out to be as much as [-] points. For Ruby who has been struggling below the food and clothing line all year round, it is simply an unbelievably huge sum of money!

"Should I order a skill or something?" Ruby was lost in thought.

There are many skills that can be learned with [-] points of energy. The most simple and practical ones are to increase the resistance to ultrasonic waves and high temperature. Although it cannot make her directly immune to these two weaknesses, at least it can prevent her from encountering these two things. He died on the spot, losing his mobility.

As for the ability to change the shape, which costs up to 1 yuan, if the irresistible temptation of "being able to become a human" is removed, then its price/performance ratio can be said to be outrageously low.

"Are you sure you don't want to save it?" the system asked, "Didn't you always want to learn illusion?"

Ruby was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Well, I think, it's not that important whether you become a human or not... The important thing is to save your own life first."

Then she said, "I want ultrasonic resistance."

Ultrasound is the most difficult thing to defend against. It is more difficult to prevent than high temperature. At any rate, as long as you stay away from high temperature, there will be no problem. But the evil thing about ultrasound is that it has extremely strong penetrating power and transmission power, even if it is separated by a mountain, it is very strong. The ultrasound can also kill Ruby instantly.

"Okay." The system ordered ultrasonic resistance for her.

[Ultrasonic Resistance]: At the moment you lose your nature and weakness, you become another person—increase your resistance to ultrasonic waves.

"Thank you Steve!" Ruby said very touched, "Whoa, if I had known that there were energy blocks in it, I would... I would have given him half of the Black Forest cake."

system:"……"

I don't think Steve wanted this, and if you did, maybe Steve could crack his shield on the spot.

"That's right." The system said, "When are you going to leave?"

"When are you leaving..." Ruby fell into deep thought.

To be honest, she didn't really want to leave.

She knows how hard it is to find another person who trusts her so much and is willing to share her life with her.

But just as Peter was growing, perhaps she should too.

Now she is still too weak, when the real danger comes, she has no way to protect others.Even now, when she thinks of that dangerous night, she still feels a lingering fear in her heart.

Just one tiny ultrasonic device could kill her and Peter.

What's more, if Peter's compatibility wasn't full overnight, she didn't even have the extra energy to save him, and she might just watch Peter die in front of her.

——What a terrible thing this is.

Even going back further, if it wasn't because she was afraid of the high temperature, maybe she wouldn't have to be deducted [-] energy because of Steve. Such a calculation is a blood loss.

Perhaps, she shouldn't delay any longer.

Ruby said, "I've decided."

System: "Huh?"

Ruby: "After eating the food Steve sent, I'll be leaving right away!"

System: "... After talking for a long time, I still want to fill my stomach first!"

Ruby chirped and said, "The child is about to leave his comfort zone. Don't you even try to comfort him? You are becoming more and more ruthless and unreasonable."

system:……

……

So this delay, another half a month passed.

For half a month, Peter took a pleasant Christmas vacation.Ruby thought that he would take this opportunity to travel and eat delicious food from all over the place, but this guy actually spent the whole seven days of vacation on doing good deeds.

For example, helping a cat down a tree, and almost being pawed by the cat;

For example, when helping an old lady to cross the road, the old lady with poor eyesight said thank you to a red trash can after crossing the road;

For example, to help a foreign friend who does not know English, after a long time of gesturing, the foreign friend walked in the wrong direction while talking about Merci.

Occasionally, when encountering a robbery or something like that, Peter would be too excited. Swinging spider silk is an iron fist punishment, beating the suspects all over the place.After the fight, he hid his achievements and fame, and left on a swing under the attention of passers-by A, B, and C.

Originally, Ruby was quite critical of this: "Tell me about you, it's enough to fight crime, why do you still work as an enthusiastic citizen?"

Until Peter helped an old man find his lost dog, and found out that the old man opened a candy store, and then he was stuffed with a large bag of colorful fruit candies by the kind-hearted and super-kind old man.

Ruby: "...It smells so good."

Sometimes when Peter finishes his good deeds, someone will stop him: "Hey, who the hell are you?"

Peter immediately froze in a handsome pose, turned around coolly, and almost blurted out "I'm a ghost boy", but Ruby slammed on the brakes——

"Don't be a fierce ghost man! Don't be a fierce ghost man!"

Peter was taken aback by such an interruption, and blurted out: "Spider, Spider-Man...?"

So the passers-by applauded and cheered together: "Yeah! Spiderman!"

So the name of Spider-Man spread like this. Everyone knows that there is a new superhero in Queens, not as rich as Iron Man, not as well-known as Captain America, but very close to the people.

In this regard, Spider-Man himself complained: "Why didn't I react at the time? I should say that I am a ghost spider! Spider-Man or something, didn't I leave you behind?"

Ruby: "...the stalk of a fierce ghost is hard to get through, right!"

Peter thought about it, and it was true that Ruby's cute and cute appearance couldn't be called "fierce". He had a new idea: "Uh, so, cute spider?"

Ruby: "...just call the Bride of the Internet."

Peter: "If you like it, it's not impossible."

Ruby: "...go eat your macarons!"

Peter was beaten up by the little symbiont, so he had to gnaw the little dessert in his hand aggrievedly.

Ruby sighed, and said, "Peter, you don't need to worry about me, I might..."

about to go.

She paused, looking at Peter's eyes that were as clear as glass, she suddenly couldn't speak.

Peter waited for a while, seeing that Ruby didn't seem to want to speak, he said, "Ruby, are you leaving?"

Ruby froze for a moment.

She didn't expect Peter to say parting words in such a calm tone.

She didn't expect Peter to be so keenly aware of her intentions.

"Actually, I have vaguely felt this way a few days ago." Peter sat on the railing of the Empire State Building, took off his headgear, and revealed his short, messy, fluffy hair. He looked down at the bustling and affluent Manhattan, and The distant sea and the standing Statue of Liberty, "I'm still thinking, when will you mention this to me?"

Ruby: ...Hey, hey, it's a foul, why doesn't this person play cards according to common sense!

System: As expected of Peter, he successfully predicted your prediction.

"It's okay, Ruby, I'm not a child anymore." Peter looked at Ruby, who had a small head protruding from his shoulder, and saw her little tangled expression, and couldn't help but reach out and rub her softly. Huhu's body, "I thought about this a long time ago, and I thought, wouldn't it be too boring if you were with me all the time?"

Ruby froze for a moment: "...bored?"

"After all, you can only talk to me alone, and you can't communicate with other people." Peter said, "It feels like turning you into my private property. If things go on like this, maybe you will start to tire of me .”

System: This kid thinks too much, as long as she can provide dessert, this scumbag will never get bored with you...

Ruby said quickly: "Don't talk nonsense, I won't bore you."

Peter shook his head and said, "Even so, you didn't come to earth from such a distant alien planet to accompany a high school student to go to school every day, did you? Besides, during the time you were with me, I I have benefited a lot, if I still want to keep you by my side, it would be too selfish."

Ruby looked at him in surprise: "Peter..."

Peter lowered his head, looked at Ruby's eyes shining in the sun, and asked nervously, "Ruby, I, I just have one question... After you leave, you will come back, right? "

Ruby suddenly felt warm inside.

She has never realized so clearly how lucky it is to have a body like Peter.

It's not because he's deceitful enough, obedient enough, accommodating her enough, willing to pamper her unconditionally, and even willing to share life with her, but because he's so warm——he opens up everything about himself without reservation In front of her, because of this, she could see his beating, pure, burning, hot heart under his slightly immature appearance.

"Peter." She spread out her soft tentacles, gently wrapped them around Peter's neck, and gave him a hug, "I'll come back to see you."

Peter embraced the soft and elastic body of the little symbiont, and said, "Then it's done, don't let me go!"

Ruby smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely be back."

They sat on the highest railing of the Empire State Building. At dusk, the winter wind blew the flags beside them, just like the bone-chilling wind of that sleepless night, but at this moment, none of them felt the slightest pain. chill.

In the distance, the afterglow of the setting sun at the end of the Atlantic lazily covered the entire bustling city, reflected in those pure eyes that were plated with a layer of light gold, warm as summer.
