CHAPTER 36: Gwen confesses

NYPD

George took Gwen and other relevant employees to watch the laboratory surveillance video in the evidence room.

Since most of the cameras used during the experiments were dismantled and taken by Industrias Oscorp.

The only camera that remained was one in the corridor adjacent to the laboratory room, it was possible to see at a glance what happened in the laboratory.

"It has now been confirmed that Peter Parker mutated and became that lizard monster because of an experimental Serum."

"But at this time, we have no way of determining whether it will cause harm to the public."

"So we're going to need to have a response plan immediately."

George's analysis also drew great approval from every officer in the room.

After some conversation, everyone left the room and went to do their things.

Soon there were only father and daughter left in the office, and George comforted her: "Don't worry, Gwen, I'll help you get Peter back."

"He's a good kid. I think he just couldn't accept what happened to his body, so he must have run to hide it."

"I guarantee he won't hurt anyone."

Gwen nodded, "Dad, you can go to work. I want to be alone."

"Right."

Gwen has always considered Peter her best friend since she was a child.

But now something totally out of her expectations has happened.

Although the mutation she suffered because of the spider bite was not at that level, Gwen understands well the feeling that Peter must be feeling right now.

(Will Peter be aggressive? Will he attack people?)

(This will depend on the reptile from which the genetic material used in the serum was taken.)

(If it is a herbivorous reptile, then there is no concern about Peter attacking ordinary people)

(But if you're a carnivore...)

Thinking of this, Gwen immediately left George's office and walked towards the detention room.

Gwen knew the layout of the police station, after all, she has been going there since she was a child.

Thanks to the cooperation of Curt Connors, he is now only temporarily detained as a suspect and is not closely guarded.

Gwen made up a random excuse to see him, and the guard let her in.

After entering, Gwen found Connors immediately.

Connors sat in the corner of the holding cell with a self-blameful look.

"Dr. Connors, I want you to answer me something."

"Gwen, I've already said everything I needed to say to the police officers."

"Please find Peter, don't let him make you regret it."

This sentence immediately made Gwen realize the seriousness of the matter: "Dr. Connors, what reptiles were used to make that Serum?"

Dr. Connors took a deep breath.

This question was never asked by these police officers because they did not understand the subject.

To protect Peter as much as possible, he also did not take the initiative to talk about it.

Unexpectedly, it was Gwen who asked at the end.

"Gwen, promise me."

"We need to convince Peter to come back, and only you can convince him."

"Dr Connors, answer me! What reptile was used to make that serum."

Connors approached: "We use cells from crocodiles, some species of gecko lizards, and some species of snakes."

Gwen's fears came true.

Gwen wasn't too worried about the cops.

Because they will certainly be equipped with firearms during the search process and will be able to resist at least for some time when they find you.

But what if he attacks ordinary people?

Gwen turned on her heel and ran out of detention.

Back at George's office, Gwen immediately grabbed her backpack and headed out towards the police station gate.

She wanted to find Peter herself.

The worst that could happen is that he ends up being killed by the police.

As soon as he walked out of the police station, Gwen saw Arthur's car parked not far from the station.

Arthur himself was leaning against the car door, looking at her.

Gwen seemed to have finally found an outlet, she ran and threw herself into Arthur's arms: "Arthur, something horrible has happened to Peter."

"I know."

Arthur gently stroked Gwen's head, letting her rest against his chest.

In this world, it was Gwen who gained the spider powers.

But before that, she was also a girl.

[A/N: There was a typo here that was honestly kind of funny, hehe]

It's normal for girls to be sentimental.

After a brief silence, Gwen, still hugging Arthur, raised her head and said: "How did you know I was at the police station, Arthur?"

"The news showed the situation at your university, I knew George and you could go there."

"That's why I asked the Red Queen to locate your cell phone, after which I came to you immediately."

After listening, Gwen felt warm in her heart.

"Arthur, there's something I want to tell you."

"I know that if I don't tell you, you won't agree with what I'm going to do next."

"Arthur, actually-"

"You're Spider-Woman."

Arthur spoke Gwen's lines first.

Gwen's eyes widened and she looked at Arthur in disbelief, "Did you know that?"

Arthur nodded.

With a straight face, Arthur said, "Did you think this costume would stop me from recognizing you?"

With a mischievous smile, Arthur squeezed Gwen's waist and said: "And I would recognize your body anywhere."

Being hugged like this and hearing his words, Gwen's face immediately turned red.

"So you're okay with me going?"

"But of course, being Spider-Woman is the path you chose, Peter is your friend and you want to bring him back."

"I also know that if I stop you, you will hate me forever."

Gwen tightened her arm around Arthur and asked.

"So, Arthur, what should I do now?"

"It's too late now, and Peter went into the sewers to escape. It won't be easy to find him."

"Come on, get in the car, we can talk on the way."

Now that there is no other way, Gwen could only nod in agreement.

In order not to worry George, he called him first and said that he had gone home first.

George also believes that Gwen is not in a good mood and that staying at the police station will not help her.

Returning home is the best option.

Now at home, Gwen also told her mother about it.

Gwen quickly returned to her room, locked the door, and put on her costume.

She opened the window and jumped out.

Below Arthur was waiting for her.

After getting into the car, Arthur handed the laptop into his arms: "The Red Queen has already hacked every camera in New York City."

"The moment Peter appears, he will be immediately found by the Red Queen."

"In addition, I ordered the Red Queen to hack the Oscorp Industries database and obtained all the data from the experiments."

"Maybe there's a way to deal with Peter, or get him back to normal."

Arthur could easily obtain this information with his hacking skills.

But he wouldn't bother doing something he could just tell the red queen to do.

"Arthur, I should have confessed to being Spider-Woman to you much sooner."

Without knowing it, Gwen's admiration for Arthur increased...

Arthur stepped on the accelerator and left the place.

And he ran through the streets of New York with Gwen...
