On Peter Parker's 205th day as Spider-Man, the superhero disappeared.

Except Peter himself.

At that time, Iron Man and Captain America were debating the feasibility of Spider-Man joining the Avengers. Recently, crime in New York was rampant and seriously understaffed.

"That's not why you let a high school kid join the Avengers, Stark." Captain America rarely calls Tony that, unless the situation is already serious. "He's underage."

"Cap, I know what I'm doing. Becoming a hero is the way he chose, and even if he doesn't join the Avengers, he will continue to operate in New York as Spider-Man. At least within the Avengers, we can still guide him. .”

In the end, the two broke up unhappy.Before the determination of whether Peter can join the Avengers is determined, the adult superheroes disappear first.

New York instantly became a haven for criminals.Gunshots and screams from the crowd began to resound in the city from time to time.In the beginning, the police in New York were still working hard to maintain the existing order.However, ordinary people's confrontation with super-powered criminals is no different from hitting a stone with a pebble. More and more policemen died in disorder and chaos, and the remaining policemen gradually succumbed to the criminals and began to remain silent.New York City seemed to have been pasted with a huge seal. Facing the powerful criminal, almost everyone closed their eyes and mouth tightly.

In front of the dark window, looking at the street scene of Manhattan with almost no lights on outside the window, Spider-Man is constantly building himself mentally——

"I can do it." Peter Parker took a deep breath, cheering himself up in his heart, and then he shot a spider web towards the opposite building, swinging out of the window.

Half an hour later, his confidence was completely shattered.

After enduring 4 or 5 waves of strong electric shocks, Peter fell hard on the rainy muddy ground.He wanted to struggle to get up, but the previous electric current made him unable to control his body at all—Peter was trembling all the time, maybe it was due to the previous electric current, maybe it was because of fear.

The person whose name could not be mentioned walked up to him, stepped on his body, and took off Spider-Man's hood.Then grabbed Peter.

Peter had uncontrollable physical tears due to the previous electric shock, which made his face a mess.The person who couldn't mention his name looked at his face, and a contemptuous smile appeared on his lips——

"Ah, our Spider-Man is still a child with no hair yet. Let's just lie down on the bed."

His face moved closer to Peter.

"What can you do? You can't do anything," he hissed into Peter's ear. "Compared to Stark, you're not good enough."

After all, the person who could not mention his name slammed Peter into the trash can on the corner of the street.

Peter Parker wandered home distraught.

Aunt May was petrified when she saw him—Peter's face was swollen, his eyes were black, and his body was covered in wounds.

Aunt May threw herself on Peter, hugged him tightly, and cried bitterly.

"I'm fine, Aunt May." Peter patted Aunt May on the back, his eyes lost their expression as if covered by smog, "I will never get hurt again, never again."

As he promised, Peter never went out of the house except to buy food, and stayed quietly in the house all the time.On the contrary, Aunt Mei was a little worried. After learning about a group of asylum seekers in Midtown High School, Aunt Mei asked Peter to go over to visit them from time to time, bringing some daily necessities, or sweaters and scarves that Aunt Mei knitted herself.

—————————————————————

"Brown", Emma said in a deep voice, but her trembling voice revealed her excitement at the moment. "Give this badge to Peter, please, I want to have a word with him."

"You know each other?" Brown asked suspiciously, "Okay, I'll go find him."

Peter was changing the bandages of a Hispanic boy when Brown found him.Peter saved a lot of people when the dormitory exploded two days ago. Brown didn't know that the 17-year-old boy could save people so fast-however, many people were injured or killed in the explosion.

"Peter," Brown patted him on the shoulder and handed him the badge. "I'll do the rest. Take it and go to the opposite room."

Peter looked at Brown suspiciously.

Brown, a black-haired reporter who came to New York from Central City, was praised by many people for his bravery and tenacity during this period, and became a leading role among this group of asylum seekers.Although he couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in Brown's gourd, Peter decided to follow Brown's instructions.

Peter went to the opposite room and closed the door.He looked at the badge, except that the words "Central City Television" became more shining, it looked like an ordinary——

"Peter Parker?" A voice suddenly came from the badge.

Peter was startled, but quickly calmed down.After all, he could often see these strange wireless toys in Mr. Stark's house a year ago.

"I am." Peter replied.

"Hi, I'm Emma Karis from Midtown, a friend of Brown's. Do you have a guardian named May Parker?"

Peter was a little puzzled, and replied, "Yes."

It seems right.It was indeed the Peter Parker she knew.Emma asked the next question:

"Are you Spider-Man?"

The name hadn't appeared in Peter Parker's life for a long, long time.Peter felt that he even stopped breathing for a moment.

"You...I think you are mistaken, ma'am." After the initial panic, Peter quickly calmed down, "This joke is not funny."

The boy's panic made Emma further confirm that the person talking to him at this time is Peter Parker who has become Spider-Man.

"No, he didn't." Although it is not clear what exactly happened to Peter himself, Emma knew that Peter might be her only hope at this moment: "He is here."

"Spider-Man is gone, superheroes are gone that day. So was he."

"Peter", for some reason, although she couldn't see Peter, Emma could deeply feel the boy's pain. "I need you, the world needs you."

Peter's lips twitched, but no sound came out.

"Listen to me. I don't know what happened to you, but you won't, you definitely don't want this world to fall like this. I will go to you, you wait for me."

Trembling, Peter cut the connection.

"The system." After finishing the call with Peter, Emma sat on the bed and asked, "Why is Spider-Man still in this world?"

[When the world consciousness takes care of superheroes, it is considered as a superhero only when it has reached the legal age]

Emma straightened up and sat up from the bed.

"That means there may still be underage superheroes active in this world? Like Teen Titans? Robin?"

[There are no Teen Titans in this world. 】The system said calmly. [The current Robin is Damian Wayne, aged 13, eligible]

"What other underage heroes might exist?" Emma asked.

[Currently known, Spiderman Peter Parker, Red Robin Tim Drake, Robin Damian Wayne. 】

Well, the three minors are in the two most dangerous areas in the world-New York and Gotham.

Emma sat on the bed and thought about the current situation, and decided to go to New York to find Peter Parker first, and get in touch with Robin when she had the opportunity.If there are still some reports on the status quo in New York, then Gotham is completely a backwater. After the disappearance of superheroes, this big city seems to be stripped from the world, and there is no news from Gotham at all. .

And how to go to New York has become Emma's biggest challenge at the moment.

Emma inspected the exchange interface, and finally decided to exchange for the super speed of the Flash - worth 100 points. For Emma, ​​who currently only has 1 point, it is quite a challenge.

In the next few weeks, Emma continued to complete various D-level tasks in various categories. Thirteen days later, after Emma completed the 2-point task of "Helping Sophie Allen find her mother", Emma's points finally reached 110 points - just to be on the safe side, she did 10 more tasks.

Emma came home and packed her luggage—it contained the food she had saved for the past few days, a large bag of hard bread and 20 boiled eggs, and the help he received when he was doing tasks Some food given to her by her lover, candy from the children of Central City Elementary School, apple pie from Dr. Yassen, and small biscuits baked by Mrs. Kanner next door.

Emma's backpack was stuffed to the brim.

Emma did not say goodbye to Katie face to face.When Emma tentatively told Katie that she might bring Brown back from New York one day, Katie changed her expression——

"No!" Emma had never seen Katie so angry before, "You can't go to New York! I've already lost Brown, and I can't lose you again..."

Katie was like a very protective hen, which touched Emma and worried her.After all, she eventually had to say goodbye to Katie and embark on a journey to New York.

This is the task on Emma's shoulders, something only she can do.

Emma wrote Katie a note:

Dear Katie:

Thank you for everything you do for me these days.I'll bring Brown back safely.

Yours, EC

Emma clicks the redeem button for The Flash's super speed ability on the page.

【Ability is loading...】

[The ability has been redeemed, and the usage time is 3 hours. 】

Emma felt her surroundings suddenly slow down.There were some crimson chains around her, and this power filled her whole body. She had never felt so light in her body. Emma found that her clothes also changed when the power came—— Now she's wearing the same red bodysuit as The Flash.

[The system comes as a bonus. 】The system answered Emma before she asked her. [After obtaining the hero's ability, the same uniform can be equipped]

Emma: "... at least give me a cape, what's the difference between this tights and an exhibitionist".

[The system comes with it and cannot be changed. 】

Emma: ...

Emma ran wildly in Midtown at night.

Emma's ears were full of howling wind.

She quickly skipped the main city and ran to the suburbs. There is a large farmland here, with a few sporadic lights, which are the lights that the farming men light when they cook dinner.

Emma carefully avoided places with lights.She is not very proficient in using the Speed ​​Force, her eyes can't keep up with the speed, and she dare not run as much as the real Flash.But she's also faster than any other means of transportation—at this rate, she'll be in New York in 10 minutes.

While Emma was running to her heart's content, she suddenly found that the road in front of her was covered with a thick layer of ice.

Emma was startled, but her super speed gave her no time to turn around again. She rushed straight to the ice and hit it hard.

Emma's head and body ached terribly, and there was a terrible pain in her right ankle.Emma struggled to sit up, and at this moment, a pair of black boots came into her vision.

Her forehead was pressed against something made of cold steel——

"The Flash", Leonard Snyder, aka Captain Cold, squatted down, and was pressing his freezing gun against Emma's forehead, "Long time no see—"

Immediately, Captain Cold's face changed suddenly, and he clamped Emma's jaw with his right hand, forcing her to face him squarely.

"You're not The Flash." His voice was icy cold. "Who are you?"
