Childhood sweethearts are magic sticks [Comprehensive Yingmei]
Hexagram 13 - Chapter 3
After confirming that Ruth would not hurt herself in order to save Gwen, Peter calmed down to listen to Ruth's next difficulties and offered help.
The thing that bothered Ruth the most was about her inability to speak.
With Peter's help, Ruth asked the school for half a month's vacation in one breath, staying at home and not going out at all.
The reason why the school was allowed to leave was because Peter brought a fake 'sick note' for Ruth, which stated that due to her poor health, she could not go out for at least half a month, because her immunity was extremely low. Easily infected by germs.
After the school got Ruth's sick note, she passed her application easily.
The problem that she wanted to break her head and didn't know how to solve was solved like this.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
As for the origin of the sick leave note, it was because Peter once rescued a child in a fire as Spider-Man, and the parents of that child were both doctors, who happened to be the surgeon who participated in the rescue of Uncle Parker in the operating room.
After discussing with Ruth that night, he put on Spider-Man's tights and climbed to the doctor's office, just as he was on the night shift.
The 'leave note' was easily in my hand.
All that is needed is for Ruth to sign her name on it.
All thanks to Peter.
Next, what worries Ruth more is how Gwen will react after receiving her 'divination results'.
After discussing everything with Peter, she returned home. As soon as she got to the bedroom, she saw a reminder of new emails beating constantly on the computer screen. After opening the contents of the emails with fear, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only did the sentences in the email not contain any words about 'swearing', but the text of Gwen's reply seemed very lighthearted and humorous.
She sincerely said that she was really taken aback after receiving Ruth's divination results, but after reading it carefully several times, she was amused by Ruth's "sorry" at the end.
[No apology needed, thanks for the divination, lol, I won't get you wrong.Although I don't believe these things, I understand that you were also taken aback by such a divination result and wanted to remind me to pay attention.Originally, you could ignore these contents, but you sent them to me because you were worried that they might be true. ]
[I will definitely pay attention! :D]
Not only was Gwen not angry, she was also amused by Ruth's words of apology. Although she didn't seem to believe in divination, she could understand Ruth's concern and concern for her, and expressed her gratitude.
To be honest, after receiving this reply at that time, Ruth's favor for Gwen instantly increased to [-]%.
It's just that she was a little worried about Gwen's reply.
——Gwen seems to be very disbelieving in her divination results. If she hands Gwen the Felicia Elixir that she has worked so hard to make, she will not take it seriously at all. Not only will she not drink it, but it is very likely What if you poured out the Felicia elixir?
This matter has troubled Ruth for a long time, because it is still something she cannot ask. After all, the other party has not scolded her with vicious words because of her recklessness, but now she is desperately trying to make the other party believe that' The vicious curse' is all true, it's really hard to do.
But this difficulty was also solved on the night of the [-]th near the middle of the month.
At that time, Ruth was squatting on her top floor and opening the window to look at the stars in the sky outside.
——Her so-called astrology does not refer to 'astrology', she just uses the astrology to see how the weather has been in recent days, which is all learned in the divination class in Ilvermorny.
Since the time was close to the 15th, Ruth had been squatting in the attic after sunset every day since a week ago, looking up at the stars with her little face up.Although the result she observed was exactly the same as the weather reported on the news every day, it was said that the day of No. [-] would be a bright sunny day with no wind, rain or cloud.
That indicates that the night will also be a good weather with bright moon and few stars.
But for some reason, the closer it was to the [-]th, the more flustered Ruth became, as if she had a little rabbit jumping around restlessly in her heart.
Ruth is startled by a sudden text from Gwen.
She hung the unicorn blood in her hand back around her neck again, took out her mobile phone to check the text messages, and found that the text messages from Gwen were exactly what she had been hesitating these days but didn't know how to solve.
[I'm so scared, I really found something wrong with Dad.Before you told me the result of the divination, I didn't pay much attention to his work at all. Although I said I didn't believe it, I subconsciously paid attention to his actions. ]
Article [-].
[He looks really weird, what if the content of your divination is true?I am really scared. ]
Article [-].
[Will I really die? ]
Article [-].
Three text messages from Gwen showed that she not only believed it, but was terrified of it.It would be nice if she could talk, then Ruth would call Gwen to tell her not to be afraid, to reassure her with words, to tell her that she was actually helping her with this problem.
But she can't speak, and typing can't explain clearly, and it may cause misunderstanding.
After thinking for a long time, Ruth only replied a text message from Gwen, and continued to squat on the ground with her arms around her legs and looked up out of the window, observing the stars.
The content of her reply was only a short sentence——
[Don't be afraid, I will protect you. ]
It was like the promise that Spider-Man who fell from the sky made for her. Maybe she didn't believe it at the time, but later Peter told her with practical actions how much he kept his promise.
She decided to learn from Peter, she didn't need to say so much, as long as she used actions to express how serious she was when she typed this sentence, it was enough.
She wants to save Gwen.
Because Gwen is a good girl, all fairies should live a long and healthy life.
Because Gwen's death may have something to do with Ruth, she didn't want to be the murderer who killed Gwen, let alone Gwen is a good person, even if a bad person's death was related to her, she might not be able to stand by and do nothing.
Because Gwen used text messages to greet herself every morning and evening during the half month when Ruth didn't go to school, and sent her some jokes and funny stories from time to time.How could such a caring girl die in her prime?
Also because...
Also because of Peter.
**
But probably people are always like this, what they are afraid of will come.
Because the most important thing on the night of NO.15 is that the moon in the sky must hang high in the sky at midnight and cannot be covered by any dark clouds.So Ruth pays close attention to the weather very often, and it is also very important.
She even adjusted her biological clock, waking up after six o'clock every evening, and then sitting in front of the window with the dinner and juice brought by Peter, staying for twelve hours, from sunset to sunrise the next morning.
From the rising of the moon to the hidden of the moon.
But under such observations, the weather was fine every day during the week that was not the [-]th. The moon would not be obstructed by any clouds for nearly ten hours, and the weather forecast did not make a single mistake.
But on the night of NO.15, Ruth woke up and sniffed the air, knowing that something was wrong.
——There is a damp smell in the air, with the smell of wet soil, which is the smell that can be smelled just after it rains, or before it rains.
So she didn't even change her pajamas, and ran quickly from the bed to the window. Seeing that it was already eight o'clock in the evening outside the window, but there was no star in the sky, Ruth's heart was always restless. The little rabbit suddenly became quiet at this moment.
It was like a boulder had crushed the rabbit to death.
Ruth looked very worried at the scene outside the window. She quickly picked up the mobile phone on the window sill, without even looking at the content of the dozens of text messages sent by Gwen and Harry, she directly entered the text message editing interface, selected Peter, and edited the text messages. information.
[The weather outside is not right, is it raining today?I just woke up, if I can't add the unicorn blood to the potion base by the moonlight at twelve o'clock tonight, then I will fail! ]
[SOS! ]
Peter returned the message very quickly. He said that he was intercepting a group of robbers from Russia on the street at this time. They robbed the bank's cash truck.
[You go to the basement to get the potion first, I will pick you up in 10 minutes, don't panic, I have a solution. ]
Although he couldn't hear Peter's voice, Ruth could imagine that while he was fighting the robbers, he took out his mobile phone to reply to messages, and he was full of confidence.
[it is good. ]
Ruth was editing, and before she had sent her 'good' word, she received a second message from Peter.
[No, five minutes is fine... maybe four minutes. ]
4 minutes.
Ruth hurried to the basement with her mobile phone, and picked up the potion base that had been stored for fifteen days and had a lot of dust on the bottle.
Although judging from Peter's information, he seems to have found a reasonable solution, and he is very confident in it.
But Ruth was still very worried. She was full of what to do if she failed this time.
If it fails this time, Ruth's hard work of keeping silent for the past half month will be in vain.And because of the demanding schedule, she will have to wait until next month.
And she might not be rich next month.
Even if you have money, you don't necessarily have unicorn blood. How precious it is, and how lucky you are to meet it.
Ruth ran from the basement to the door barefooted. While opening the door, she searched for the pair of shoes on the ground that would be more convenient.
But when she looked down and saw that she was still wearing a white silk nightdress, Ruth didn't think any more, and kicked on a pair of flat-heeled sneakers directly.
——It is also white, convenient and matches the color of her nightdress. Although it is a good color, but under the premise that she is pressed for time and cannot go back to the house to change a new set of clothes, these shoes are indeed her best choose.
This is how women, even in their most urgent forms, subconsciously pay attention to how they dress.
From receiving a text message from Peter to the time she puts on her shoes and opens the door, the whole process takes less than a minute.After Ruth finished all the preparations, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she was startled by the people outside the door.
——Standing outside the door was Harry, he was about to knock on the door with one hand raised, but he froze there because of Ruth's movement to open the door, just like Peter's posture half a month ago.
It looked like Harry had been standing at the door for a long time.
His hair was not styled with spray today, but the black strands were casually hanging on the tips of his ears, looking much cooler than usual.
Harry's other hand was holding the phone, and Ruth, who had excellent eyesight, glanced at it and found that the text message page between him and Ruth was on the screen of the phone.
He sent many messages, and Ruth did not reply to a single one.
"Hi... sorry to scare you."
Harry looked embarrassed after seeing Ruth startled by his presence.
Ruth couldn't speak. After half a month of practice, she managed to keep silent even if she was suddenly frightened. She just opened her mouth wide and didn't make any sound when she screamed.
He caught Ruth's line of sight, and hurriedly put the cell phone, which had edited a large section of content, back into his pocket.
[You're looking for me... what's the matter? ]
Ruth and Harry's movements were almost synchronized, and she also hid the phone she was talking with Peter behind her back.The only difference is that Ruth is wearing a skirt, and she has nowhere to hide her phone.
So she could only put her hands behind her back in embarrassment, and after closing the page of talking with Peter, she took it back to her face, typed this paragraph and handed the screen to Harry.
Whether it was because of her clothes or because she was uneasy about what she was going to say next, Harry looked even more embarrassed than her.
But it was only for a moment.
The next moment, after he saw clearly what Ruth typed on the phone screen, Harry suddenly straightened his back and stood up straight, as if to match what he said, his expression became serious.
"I know you can't talk, and I also know that Peter has conveyed it for you. If there is anything I need to ask you, I will send you a text message."
3 minutes.
Ruth was a little worried that Peter would suddenly appear in front of them as Spider-Man. It might be difficult to explain if Harry bumped into her, because as far as she knew, neither Harry nor Gwen knew that Peter was Spider-Man this time thing.
She nodded, trying to urge Harry to finish quickly, looking around vigilantly, typing out what she wanted to say to Harry on the text page with her fingers.
[If you have anything, you can still send me a message. The reason why I didn't reply to your message before is because I just woke up and haven't had time yet.It's very windy outside, I want to go in and rest, just text me if you have something to do. ]
This passage was a bit long, but Harry read it quickly. Less than two seconds after she held up the phone to Harry, Harry's eyes glanced back at Ruth again.
Ruth thought he would understand her obvious persuasion. After all, Harry was such a considerate and gentlemanly boy, and he would never embarrass her.
But Harry seemed a little strange today. Not only did he not leave immediately after seeing Ruth's message, but he took off his coat and put it on Ruth.
"Sorry, give me another minute."
His feet didn't move at all, and he didn't have the slightest intention to leave.
"I was going to send you a message before, but when I was editing this paragraph, I wrote and deleted the message many times. Yes, I know this is not my character, but it is on this matter that I am like It’s like changing a person.”
2 minutes.
Time passed as Harry spoke, the more anxious Ruth became, the slower Harry spoke.
Ruth is not very good at disguising, she is not even very good at lying.
So at this moment, Ruth's expression could easily reveal her inner thoughts.
— Anxiety, impatience, irritability, restlessness, fear, worry.
Countless complex but unified emotions, all negative emotions.
The more she looked like this, the more hesitant Harry's expression and words became. Half a minute passed, and he still couldn't get to the point.
"I thought about it for a long time. I arrived downstairs at your house two hours ago. Between sending you a text message or telling you this sentence in person, I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to tell you in person."
Even though Ruth felt impatient again, she still listened carefully to every word Harry said, and just as Harry said it, she suddenly felt that Harry's demeanor and words were very familiar to her.
……
just like……
Just like how she acted every time she thought of Peter.
Ruth suddenly thought of a few days ago, when Gwen told her that "Harry obviously didn't have a prom partner, but he rejected more than a dozen girls in a row, and that day he rejected the best-looking blonde girl in the first year of high school."
Out of curiosity and gossip, Ruth asked Harry why on the Internet.
But on the dialogue window with Harry, it displayed 'the other party is typing...' for at least ten minutes, and Harry didn't reply to Ruth any message.
In the end, he didn't even say good night to Ruth, so his face turned gray and he logged off.
She hadn't thought about it elsewhere before, she just felt that she was too lenient and crossed the line, which made Harry feel uncomfortable.After that time, Ruth, who had learned her lesson, stopped talking to Harry about this topic.
But Harry's words and his expression today, including the gentle look he had just wrapped his clothes around Ruth's body, made Ruth feel something was wrong.
This doesn't seem like something a guy would say or do to his friends.
She stared blankly at Harry, and opened her mouth to realize the fact that she couldn't speak. She quickly picked up the phone and tried to type to prevent him from saying the next words, which would disturb her thoughts and make her brain will become blank.
But Ruth's movements were suddenly interrupted, her gaze was attracted by somewhere behind Harry, and she fixedly looked behind him.
"Some things I wanted to tell you the first time I saw you, but I was afraid that you would think I was frivolous and pressed down to the bottom of my heart."
Harry hadn't noticed anything wrong with Ruth yet, maybe it was nervousness, or it might be that the night was too dark without moon and starlight.
"I……"
He's about to get to the most important part.
Ruth interrupted him, looked behind Harry with a frown, and took out her phone to type.
[There is someone behind you, why is he here? ]
"people?"
Harry was stunned, his mind was full of the words he wanted to say but couldn't finish, he was suddenly interrupted by Ruth, and he was asked such an incomprehensible question, which made him unable to react for a while.
[Did you bring it? ]
"No."
Harry first denied Ruth's conjecture, then turned around upon hearing the sound.
1 minutes.
But he didn't see anything, and just when he was about to turn around and ask Ruth, he saw the person Ruth was hiding in the shadows walking out slowly under the wall of Peter's house opposite.
Dark blond hair, a muscular figure that couldn't be concealed by clothes that weren't too tight, and his face that Harry had seen countless times in school physical education class.
"you are not……"
Steve's face became clearer as he approached Ruth step by step.
Ruth nodded, he knew what Harry was going to say.
Steve nodded too, and he gave Harry a weary smile, confirming his suspicions.
"Yes, I'm Steve Rogers, Captain America."
His face looked very bad.
"..."
Ruth looked at Steve's expression froze for a moment, the 4-minute countdown in her heart was passing by every minute and every second, and now it was about to approach the end of the 4-minute period, but at this time, besides Harry, came out again A Captain America.
She was even more worried, and now when Peter appeared, the chance of being exposed was even greater.
After all, Ruth has not forgotten that she was able to know that Peter is Spider-Man, thanks to Captain America's 'accident'.
If only there was still magic power, she could send the group of people far away with a flick of her wand, or she could 'apparate' to Peter.
Pity.
Steve patted Harry on the shoulder, but looked at Ruth and spoke to Ruth.
"I wanted to wait for him to finish. I'm sorry, kid, but I interrupted you."
He walked up to Ruth and spoke.
"You're right, I saw him."
His expression was complicated, and the emotion hidden under the exhaustion seemed to be excited, but it was more mixed with tension and worry.
Although he didn't say exactly what he meant because of Harry's existence, both Steve and Ruth understood who the 'he' in this sentence was referring to.
"I want to talk to you."
He stood at the same position as Harry, and he was much taller than Harry, looking down at Ruth who was typing quickly on the phone.
Her phone suddenly vibrated at this moment.
Ruth, who failed to hide the phone in time, was clearly seen by Steve on the information on the screen.
[I am coming. ]
15 seconds.
The author has something to say: I thought yesterday that I could post it today after I modified it, but when I opened the document today, what did I write?So I deleted it and rewritten it...
Please remember that it is shameless for the author to set the difficulty of tasks for the purpose of gaining favorability.
I'm a real mother, shameless, trust me, the next chapter Su, sweet, cool.
It's time to encourage me with a message, isn't it!So I can write the next chapter of Sweet Susu!right!
The thing that bothered Ruth the most was about her inability to speak.
With Peter's help, Ruth asked the school for half a month's vacation in one breath, staying at home and not going out at all.
The reason why the school was allowed to leave was because Peter brought a fake 'sick note' for Ruth, which stated that due to her poor health, she could not go out for at least half a month, because her immunity was extremely low. Easily infected by germs.
After the school got Ruth's sick note, she passed her application easily.
The problem that she wanted to break her head and didn't know how to solve was solved like this.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
As for the origin of the sick leave note, it was because Peter once rescued a child in a fire as Spider-Man, and the parents of that child were both doctors, who happened to be the surgeon who participated in the rescue of Uncle Parker in the operating room.
After discussing with Ruth that night, he put on Spider-Man's tights and climbed to the doctor's office, just as he was on the night shift.
The 'leave note' was easily in my hand.
All that is needed is for Ruth to sign her name on it.
All thanks to Peter.
Next, what worries Ruth more is how Gwen will react after receiving her 'divination results'.
After discussing everything with Peter, she returned home. As soon as she got to the bedroom, she saw a reminder of new emails beating constantly on the computer screen. After opening the contents of the emails with fear, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only did the sentences in the email not contain any words about 'swearing', but the text of Gwen's reply seemed very lighthearted and humorous.
She sincerely said that she was really taken aback after receiving Ruth's divination results, but after reading it carefully several times, she was amused by Ruth's "sorry" at the end.
[No apology needed, thanks for the divination, lol, I won't get you wrong.Although I don't believe these things, I understand that you were also taken aback by such a divination result and wanted to remind me to pay attention.Originally, you could ignore these contents, but you sent them to me because you were worried that they might be true. ]
[I will definitely pay attention! :D]
Not only was Gwen not angry, she was also amused by Ruth's words of apology. Although she didn't seem to believe in divination, she could understand Ruth's concern and concern for her, and expressed her gratitude.
To be honest, after receiving this reply at that time, Ruth's favor for Gwen instantly increased to [-]%.
It's just that she was a little worried about Gwen's reply.
——Gwen seems to be very disbelieving in her divination results. If she hands Gwen the Felicia Elixir that she has worked so hard to make, she will not take it seriously at all. Not only will she not drink it, but it is very likely What if you poured out the Felicia elixir?
This matter has troubled Ruth for a long time, because it is still something she cannot ask. After all, the other party has not scolded her with vicious words because of her recklessness, but now she is desperately trying to make the other party believe that' The vicious curse' is all true, it's really hard to do.
But this difficulty was also solved on the night of the [-]th near the middle of the month.
At that time, Ruth was squatting on her top floor and opening the window to look at the stars in the sky outside.
——Her so-called astrology does not refer to 'astrology', she just uses the astrology to see how the weather has been in recent days, which is all learned in the divination class in Ilvermorny.
Since the time was close to the 15th, Ruth had been squatting in the attic after sunset every day since a week ago, looking up at the stars with her little face up.Although the result she observed was exactly the same as the weather reported on the news every day, it was said that the day of No. [-] would be a bright sunny day with no wind, rain or cloud.
That indicates that the night will also be a good weather with bright moon and few stars.
But for some reason, the closer it was to the [-]th, the more flustered Ruth became, as if she had a little rabbit jumping around restlessly in her heart.
Ruth is startled by a sudden text from Gwen.
She hung the unicorn blood in her hand back around her neck again, took out her mobile phone to check the text messages, and found that the text messages from Gwen were exactly what she had been hesitating these days but didn't know how to solve.
[I'm so scared, I really found something wrong with Dad.Before you told me the result of the divination, I didn't pay much attention to his work at all. Although I said I didn't believe it, I subconsciously paid attention to his actions. ]
Article [-].
[He looks really weird, what if the content of your divination is true?I am really scared. ]
Article [-].
[Will I really die? ]
Article [-].
Three text messages from Gwen showed that she not only believed it, but was terrified of it.It would be nice if she could talk, then Ruth would call Gwen to tell her not to be afraid, to reassure her with words, to tell her that she was actually helping her with this problem.
But she can't speak, and typing can't explain clearly, and it may cause misunderstanding.
After thinking for a long time, Ruth only replied a text message from Gwen, and continued to squat on the ground with her arms around her legs and looked up out of the window, observing the stars.
The content of her reply was only a short sentence——
[Don't be afraid, I will protect you. ]
It was like the promise that Spider-Man who fell from the sky made for her. Maybe she didn't believe it at the time, but later Peter told her with practical actions how much he kept his promise.
She decided to learn from Peter, she didn't need to say so much, as long as she used actions to express how serious she was when she typed this sentence, it was enough.
She wants to save Gwen.
Because Gwen is a good girl, all fairies should live a long and healthy life.
Because Gwen's death may have something to do with Ruth, she didn't want to be the murderer who killed Gwen, let alone Gwen is a good person, even if a bad person's death was related to her, she might not be able to stand by and do nothing.
Because Gwen used text messages to greet herself every morning and evening during the half month when Ruth didn't go to school, and sent her some jokes and funny stories from time to time.How could such a caring girl die in her prime?
Also because...
Also because of Peter.
**
But probably people are always like this, what they are afraid of will come.
Because the most important thing on the night of NO.15 is that the moon in the sky must hang high in the sky at midnight and cannot be covered by any dark clouds.So Ruth pays close attention to the weather very often, and it is also very important.
She even adjusted her biological clock, waking up after six o'clock every evening, and then sitting in front of the window with the dinner and juice brought by Peter, staying for twelve hours, from sunset to sunrise the next morning.

It was like a boulder had crushed the rabbit to death.
Ruth looked very worried at the scene outside the window. She quickly picked up the mobile phone on the window sill, without even looking at the content of the dozens of text messages sent by Gwen and Harry, she directly entered the text message editing interface, selected Peter, and edited the text messages. information.
[The weather outside is not right, is it raining today?I just woke up, if I can't add the unicorn blood to the potion base by the moonlight at twelve o'clock tonight, then I will fail! ]
[SOS! ]
Peter returned the message very quickly. He said that he was intercepting a group of robbers from Russia on the street at this time. They robbed the bank's cash truck.
[You go to the basement to get the potion first, I will pick you up in 10 minutes, don't panic, I have a solution. ]
Although he couldn't hear Peter's voice, Ruth could imagine that while he was fighting the robbers, he took out his mobile phone to reply to messages, and he was full of confidence.
[it is good. ]
Ruth was editing, and before she had sent her 'good' word, she received a second message from Peter.
[No, five minutes is fine... maybe four minutes. ]
4 minutes.
Ruth hurried to the basement with her mobile phone, and picked up the potion base that had been stored for fifteen days and had a lot of dust on the bottle.
Although judging from Peter's information, he seems to have found a reasonable solution, and he is very confident in it.
But Ruth was still very worried. She was full of what to do if she failed this time.
If it fails this time, Ruth's hard work of keeping silent for the past half month will be in vain.And because of the demanding schedule, she will have to wait until next month.
And she might not be rich next month.
Even if you have money, you don't necessarily have unicorn blood. How precious it is, and how lucky you are to meet it.

It looked like Harry had been standing at the door for a long time.
His hair was not styled with spray today, but the black strands were casually hanging on the tips of his ears, looking much cooler than usual.

Harry looked embarrassed after seeing Ruth startled by his presence.
Ruth couldn't speak. After half a month of practice, she managed to keep silent even if she was suddenly frightened. She just opened her mouth wide and didn't make any sound when she screamed.
He caught Ruth's line of sight, and hurriedly put the cell phone, which had edited a large section of content, back into his pocket.
[You're looking for me... what's the matter? ]
Ruth and Harry's movements were almost synchronized, and she also hid the phone she was talking with Peter behind her back.The only difference is that Ruth is wearing a skirt, and she has nowhere to hide her phone.
So she could only put her hands behind her back in embarrassment, and after closing the page of talking with Peter, she took it back to her face, typed this paragraph and handed the screen to Harry.
Whether it was because of her clothes or because she was uneasy about what she was going to say next, Harry looked even more embarrassed than her.
But it was only for a moment.
The next moment, after he saw clearly what Ruth typed on the phone screen, Harry suddenly straightened his back and stood up straight, as if to match what he said, his expression became serious.
"I know you can't talk, and I also know that Peter has conveyed it for you. If there is anything I need to ask you, I will send you a text message."
3 minutes.
Ruth was a little worried that Peter would suddenly appear in front of them as Spider-Man. It might be difficult to explain if Harry bumped into her, because as far as she knew, neither Harry nor Gwen knew that Peter was Spider-Man this time thing.
She nodded, trying to urge Harry to finish quickly, looking around vigilantly, typing out what she wanted to say to Harry on the text page with her fingers.
[If you have anything, you can still send me a message. The reason why I didn't reply to your message before is because I just woke up and haven't had time yet.It's very windy outside, I want to go in and rest, just text me if you have something to do. ]
This passage was a bit long, but Harry read it quickly. Less than two seconds after she held up the phone to Harry, Harry's eyes glanced back at Ruth again.
Ruth thought he would understand her obvious persuasion. After all, Harry was such a considerate and gentlemanly boy, and he would never embarrass her.
But Harry seemed a little strange today. Not only did he not leave immediately after seeing Ruth's message, but he took off his coat and put it on Ruth.
"Sorry, give me another minute."
His feet didn't move at all, and he didn't have the slightest intention to leave.
"I was going to send you a message before, but when I was editing this paragraph, I wrote and deleted the message many times. Yes, I know this is not my character, but it is on this matter that I am like It’s like changing a person.”
2 minutes.
Time passed as Harry spoke, the more anxious Ruth became, the slower Harry spoke.
Ruth is not very good at disguising, she is not even very good at lying.
So at this moment, Ruth's expression could easily reveal her inner thoughts.
— Anxiety, impatience, irritability, restlessness, fear, worry.
Countless complex but unified emotions, all negative emotions.
The more she looked like this, the more hesitant Harry's expression and words became. Half a minute passed, and he still couldn't get to the point.
"I thought about it for a long time. I arrived downstairs at your house two hours ago. Between sending you a text message or telling you this sentence in person, I thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to tell you in person."
Even though Ruth felt impatient again, she still listened carefully to every word Harry said, and just as Harry said it, she suddenly felt that Harry's demeanor and words were very familiar to her.
……
just like……
Just like how she acted every time she thought of Peter.
Ruth suddenly thought of a few days ago, when Gwen told her that "Harry obviously didn't have a prom partner, but he rejected more than a dozen girls in a row, and that day he rejected the best-looking blonde girl in the first year of high school."
Out of curiosity and gossip, Ruth asked Harry why on the Internet.
But on the dialogue window with Harry, it displayed 'the other party is typing...' for at least ten minutes, and Harry didn't reply to Ruth any message.
In the end, he didn't even say good night to Ruth, so his face turned gray and he logged off.
She hadn't thought about it elsewhere before, she just felt that she was too lenient and crossed the line, which made Harry feel uncomfortable.After that time, Ruth, who had learned her lesson, stopped talking to Harry about this topic.
But Harry's words and his expression today, including the gentle look he had just wrapped his clothes around Ruth's body, made Ruth feel something was wrong.
This doesn't seem like something a guy would say or do to his friends.
She stared blankly at Harry, and opened her mouth to realize the fact that she couldn't speak. She quickly picked up the phone and tried to type to prevent him from saying the next words, which would disturb her thoughts and make her brain will become blank.
But Ruth's movements were suddenly interrupted, her gaze was attracted by somewhere behind Harry, and she fixedly looked behind him.
"Some things I wanted to tell you the first time I saw you, but I was afraid that you would think I was frivolous and pressed down to the bottom of my heart."
Harry hadn't noticed anything wrong with Ruth yet, maybe it was nervousness, or it might be that the night was too dark without moon and starlight.
"I……"
He's about to get to the most important part.
Ruth interrupted him, looked behind Harry with a frown, and took out her phone to type.
[There is someone behind you, why is he here? ]
"people?"
Harry was stunned, his mind was full of the words he wanted to say but couldn't finish, he was suddenly interrupted by Ruth, and he was asked such an incomprehensible question, which made him unable to react for a while.
[Did you bring it? ]
"No."
Harry first denied Ruth's conjecture, then turned around upon hearing the sound.
1 minutes.
But he didn't see anything, and just when he was about to turn around and ask Ruth, he saw the person Ruth was hiding in the shadows walking out slowly under the wall of Peter's house opposite.
Dark blond hair, a muscular figure that couldn't be concealed by clothes that weren't too tight, and his face that Harry had seen countless times in school physical education class.
"you are not……"
Steve's face became clearer as he approached Ruth step by step.
Ruth nodded, he knew what Harry was going to say.
Steve nodded too, and he gave Harry a weary smile, confirming his suspicions.
"Yes, I'm Steve Rogers, Captain America."
His face looked very bad.
"..."
Ruth looked at Steve's expression froze for a moment, the 4-minute countdown in her heart was passing by every minute and every second, and now it was about to approach the end of the 4-minute period, but at this time, besides Harry, came out again A Captain America.
She was even more worried, and now when Peter appeared, the chance of being exposed was even greater.
After all, Ruth has not forgotten that she was able to know that Peter is Spider-Man, thanks to Captain America's 'accident'.
If only there was still magic power, she could send the group of people far away with a flick of her wand, or she could 'apparate' to Peter.
Pity.
Steve patted Harry on the shoulder, but looked at Ruth and spoke to Ruth.
"I wanted to wait for him to finish. I'm sorry, kid, but I interrupted you."
He walked up to Ruth and spoke.
"You're right, I saw him."
His expression was complicated, and the emotion hidden under the exhaustion seemed to be excited, but it was more mixed with tension and worry.
Although he didn't say exactly what he meant because of Harry's existence, both Steve and Ruth understood who the 'he' in this sentence was referring to.
"I want to talk to you."
He stood at the same position as Harry, and he was much taller than Harry, looking down at Ruth who was typing quickly on the phone.
Her phone suddenly vibrated at this moment.
Ruth, who failed to hide the phone in time, was clearly seen by Steve on the information on the screen.
[I am coming. ]
15 seconds.
The author has something to say: I thought yesterday that I could post it today after I modified it, but when I opened the document today, what did I write?So I deleted it and rewritten it...
Please remember that it is shameless for the author to set the difficulty of tasks for the purpose of gaining favorability.

It's time to encourage me with a message, isn't it!So I can write the next chapter of Sweet Susu!right!
