Scott Summers arrives later, bringing Jean the blood-drawing device.

"Don't be afraid, it's probably just a little more blood than usual for the physical examination." Smiling and comforting Peter, "Which middle school do you go to? Have you considered transferring to College X? No? Have you ever thought that if your classmates find out about your What will happen to another identity? They may not necessarily recognize you, and they may exclude you. This is a problem that almost all mutant children will encounter, and it will not change other people's attitudes because of what you usually do. Your opinion."

"I'm not afraid."

"What a good boy."

Peter glared at her angrily.

Jean pulled out the needle, "Okay. Look, it's very simple."

"Have you ever been afraid?" Alicia asked: "Most of the superpowers of mutants start to activate during adolescence. How did you feel when you found out that you were different?"

"Scared." Jean put away Peter's blood sample, discarded needles, and cotton balls used to wipe the needle holes, making sure that nothing stained with blood was left behind. "My telepathy came first, and I could hear everyone around me, including my parents."

She pointed to her head.

"You think your parents will love you unreservedly. You are wrong. They are more afraid that their children are monsters. My father fell down when he was repairing the roof and going down the escalator. I used superpowers to hold him up. He literally fell. Turns out, he was more scared than I was."

"They are afraid that you are not ordinary enough." Alicia looked at Peter thoughtfully, "May may have seen many mutants and helped some of them, but if she finds out that you are also a mutant, she will Won't love you as much as now?"

Peter was stunned.

"You have been afraid to tell May, are you really afraid that she will be worried about your safety?"

Peter lowered his head, "I—I can't tell, it's both." He quickly looked up at her, "But she's fine with you being a mutant."

Jean smiled.

Alicia also laughed, "Little fool, that's because I'm just your girlfriend, I'm not the child she took care of for 10 years."

Eric glanced at the two of them, and said coldly: "She will definitely find out. Most mutant children have to leave their families of origin and stay away from their parents. Their parents can't understand them, can't understand Us, fear us more, if you're not strong enough, you won't even pass this one. You'll be miserable, you'll be lost, you'll be like 'if only I wasn't some fucking mutant' and you'll wish it never happened Happened, life can go back to normal, but that's impossible. Eventually you will probably break down—don't think that mutants don't have mental problems, the proportion of mutants who can't resist mental breakdown is even higher than ordinary humans."

"Enough, Eric." Jean had to stop Eric from telling darker truths. "By intimidating him, you won't be able to make him figure this out right away. Take your time."

Scott chimed in, "It's not that scary, take your time, Peter."

Peter was restless and still pale as he ate dinner.

He is actually a well-protected child. After his parents passed away, Ben and Mei immediately completed the adoption procedures and took him home, so in fact he has always been a loved child. The biggest setback in life is school. There are a few children in the book who always taunt him.He is broad-minded and does not feel inferior because of it.After being bitten by a mutated spider, the boy's world suddenly became brighter. His vision was no longer "I want to be a popular boy in school", but "I hope the world is peaceful".

Regarding the fact that he is actually a "Mutant", he has basically never thought of telling others, neither May nor Ben, who is closest to him, nor Ned, his best friend. As for the person who just became his closest person last night Alicia, she found out by herself, not counting his initiative to tell.

So I am still afraid, afraid that Mei will be like everyone else, afraid that her relatives are mutants, disgusted, feared, disgusted.God!If May treated him like this, he would not be able to bear it.If Ben couldn't take it either, he might actually break down.

"Still thinking about what Eric said?" Alicia whispered in his ear.

He nodded, then shook his head, quite frustrated, "Maybe I'm really afraid of letting May and Ben know my real situation."

"That's okay, it's normal, it's normal to be afraid. People are most afraid of change, because you don't know how the people around you will react, it may be a positive reaction, it may be bad. Eric said the worst In this case, I can't lie to you that Mei will accept it very well. She takes care of you more than Ben takes care of you. She is the closest person to you. If she is afraid of you, it can only be said that she doesn't believe in herself educational outcomes."

"I'm really afraid of hurting her."

"Until you tell her, there's no point in guessing how she'll react. Well, eat more."

Eric watched coldly as they chatted in low tones.

With skin-to-skin contact, the two are indeed a little different from before, and it doesn't take much keen observation to see it.Peter was a little timid yesterday and didn't dare to touch her body too much, but today he was able to hug her waist intimately and actively. The number of times the two touched each other was beyond count, and they looked like teenagers in love.

As a real adult and man, of course he couldn't ask "Why did you kiss me last night?" If he did, she would definitely make a merciless joke, laughing at him for thinking too much, but it was just a kiss.

He has seen this kind of women before, and they are used to swaying hormones indiscriminately, but at least they are all mature women.So she is a trick that knows a lot of enchanting women, but she has a girly appearance.What the hell!

After dinner, Jean dragged Scott away.

Scott is a traditional straight and rough guy. He didn't see any problems with those three people at all. He only knew that Alicia and Peter were a young couple.

"I thought you wanted to chat with Alicia a little longer."

"Enough talking, she will go to school tomorrow. Besides, did you really not see Eric's eyes urging us to go?"

"You read his brain again?" Scott scratched his head.

"You are also a fool. His face is so ugly, and he needs brains to know?" Qin sighed softly, "Scott, you have not been beaten to death until now, it must be because you can burn people to death with a single stare, no People dare to fight with you."

Alicia took Peter for a walk by the lake, just the two of them.

Holding hands and walking under the moonlight, her little face was glowing with white light.

Peter finally remembered to ask, "You last night—your body glowed, what happened?"

"I don't know. I think I can. Do you think it looks good?"

"Well, it's pretty, and it's fun. You're like an elf in a Disney cartoon, glowing and flying around."

"Do you want to fly?"

"I can't fly, I have to rely on spider silk." He said honestly.

"I can fly." Her body floated up, her feet were off the ground, "I'll take you to the moon, I won't die in space."

She pulled him up easily.

Peter only felt that his feet were off the ground, too, and he was floating in heaven.

It's very different from swinging from building to building with spider silk. He can't actually fly, he has to use some kind of tool to do it.Humans' desire to fly is probably deeply rooted in their genes, such as the wings of Daedalus in Greek mythology, the dragon flying nine heavens in Chinese mythology, and the feathered fairy in Japanese mythology.

And she can fly without any wings or tools, and she can fly with him.

Of course, Ben Yue was just joking, but he really flew into the air, looking at the Lake Ontario below, and the little lights by the lake were like the glimmer of fireflies. That kind of wonderful feeling is indescribable.

"Are you scared?" he asked softly in his ear.

"Not afraid."

"Then I let go."

"Falling is also falling into the lake water. I think I might at most be hit by the water and break my bones." Holding her waist tightly, he couldn't help kissing her soft lips, "Will you throw me down?"

"No. Peter, did May tell you what love is?"

Peter was a little confused, but still answered her, "I said, you will understand when you meet that person, that is your other half."

"I read novels that say that love is beautiful. If two people love each other, they will always want to be together."

"Yeah, for example, I want to be with you 24 hours a day now."

"What about Spider-Man? I can't be 'Spider-WoMan', can I?"

Good offer, she's capable, but it's just—

"do you want?"

"I don't know, maybe I don't want to." There was a wind high in the sky, blowing her blond hair. "I'm not kind and loving like you. I may be very selfish, and I don't think there is anything wrong with being selfish. If someone died in front of my feet because of violence, I might bypass it without even looking at it." He, and not upset. You can't."

Eric Lanshere heard the sound of two people going upstairs, the door opened one after the other, and the two went back to their rooms respectively.

He walked out of the door, stretched out his hand, and the whole set of trays on the kitchen table downstairs flew to the second floor with the tea set in the tray, and then went up to the third floor.

"Alicia." He knocked on the door, but she didn't respond.

Push the door in, put the tray on the round table on the balcony, and there is a round sofa chair beside the round table.

"You are the master, so you can come in casually?" She came out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel, with a straight face, "Go out."

He stood in front of the window without moving, "I haven't had a chance to have a good chat with you, I'll treat you to drink—evening tea." He pointed at the sofa chair casually, "Sit down."

"I didn't change my clothes, you go out."

He couldn't really just sit around, so he turned and went out.
