Chapter 54: Memory Fragments

*Sigh*

But now that the matter is over, there's no point in blaming Miles.

So, the three of them discussed their next plan. 

The Amazing Spider-Man B put forward a plan:

First, they have to go to Okmax Labs, the facility used by Kingpin to study the particle collider, to obtain information about the particle collider. With this data, they can carry out the reloading process to repair it in a targeted manner.

This reload key is actually like a Trojan horse virus. It implants a program into the particle collider and affects its systems, thus achieving the effect of destroying the particle collider.

Therefore, if they don't have information on the particle collider, even if they want to repair it, they will not be able to find a way.

Next, they need to find a place to create the reload key.

The last and most critical step is to insert the completed reload key into the collider and send the Amazing Spider-Man B back to his home universe. 

As for Peter, he can go back anytime, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

However, Peter objected to this plan.

He believes that it doesn't need to be so complicated.

As long as they find the home of the deceased blonde Spider-Man (the Peter Parker of that universe), they may be able to find the relevant data directly from his computer, and even the data he used to create the reload key. Then they can simply make one without the need to redesign it from scratch.

Moreover, this way Peter can also obtain the blonde Spider-Man's spider suit to facilitate his subsequent actions.

—He's not worried about the web-shooters. 

In the coffin, perhaps to commemorate him, someone had placed a pair of web-shooters when he was buried, though the web fluid cartridges were a bit depleted.

There is only one set for each hand, estimated to be a few hundred meters worth.

But there were two problems with Peter's suggestion that he raised:

Where would this blonde Spider-Man's home be located?

From the news found online, the blonde Spider-Man and Mary Jane Watson were already married, so his base may have been placed near their home.

But before that, he had lived with Aunt May, so it was also possible that his base was at Aunt May's house. 

After a careful discussion, the three decided to split into two groups tomorrow.

One group would be the Amazing Spider-Man B and Miles, who would go together to Okmax Labs in the Hudson Valley. Because it involved stealth operations, two people were needed.

It would actually be better to leave this to the Amazing Spider-Man B and Peter.

But considering that the blonde Spider-Man's private base may have some identity authentication measures, Peter could only take another route.

That is, they would go to the homes of the blonde Spider-Man and Mary Jane, as well as Aunt May's house, to find the blonde Spider-Man's private base.

Based on the distance between the three locations, they finally decided that no matter whether the mission was completed or not, they would meet at the address of Aunt May's house in the evening.

—After the plan was discussed. 

Since Peter's current body was too weak, they decided to take a good rest tonight and wait until tomorrow.

Peter was not worried that he would never come back. 

Because his spider-sense was telling him that there was already some connection between him and this body. At least, he could return here at any time before completing this mission.

As for what happened next, he didn't know.

They would talk about it later.

Afterwards, Peter temporarily returned to his side.

After a while in the Earth-1610 universe, it was almost dawn in Peter's native universe.

This was one of the reasons why Peter wanted to come back first. 

It would be embarrassing if Aunt May couldn't wake him up after dawn.

However, as long as the morning passed, starting from noon, he would have a period of time completely at his own disposal!

Because Aunt May would go to a place far away in New York starting from the afternoon to take charge of an aid activity, and she wouldn't be back until Monday night.

During this period, Peter was free to make arrangements!

After finally staying up until the afternoon and seeing Aunt May off, Peter quickly returned home and lay on the bed.

—He soon woke up again in the Earth-1610B universe. 

Then he saw the Amazing Spider-Man B sleeping soundly on the spider-web hammock next to him, and the spider suit could not cover his big belly.

Below, Miles was lying on the bed, with the quilt kicked under the bed. He didn't look very well-behaved.

Peter smiled knowingly. 

He clenched his fist and moved his arms and legs. After a night of recovery, the body's functions had recovered at least 70%.

For Spider-Man, even at 70% strength, he was still much stronger than ordinary people.

After waking up the Amazing Spider-Man B and Miles respectively, the three finally reviewed their plans and then went their separate ways.

Peter put on his hat and mask, found a bus and got on it.

The home of the blonde Spider-Man and Mary Jane was located in a high-end apartment in Queens Hill, about two hours by bus from Brooklyn.

Peter closed his eyes in boredom and began to meditate.

After transferring between several buses, he finally arrived at the blonde Spider-Man's home. 

Mary Jane was not at home.

Obviously, the death of the blonde Spider-Man had exposed his true identity, which caused great trouble for Mary Jane's life.

She had to temporarily leave here to avoid harassment by some people.

Just when he was about to enter, he felt something strange.

There seemed to be some memory fragments slowly emerging in his mind.

When he first bought this place, he felt the warmth of building a love nest with Mary Jane here; when they lived together, they had quarrels over trivial matters; he and Mary Jane cuddled together and made plans for the future.

Peter froze in place for a long time. After that, his furrowed brow finally relaxed a little.

Then, he turned around and left.

The inexplicably appearing memory fragments of the blonde Spider-Man told him that there was no private base for him here.

It's not that he was afraid that Mary Jane would know, he had already told Mary Jane that he was Spider-Man before they got married.

It's just because there were many people around and it wasn't easy to carry out large-scale construction.

So, he had just made a small workshop at home and kept some things in it. 

But these things did not include information on the particle collider's reload key.

Peter's departing footsteps suddenly stopped. 

He turned around again, looked around cautiously, and climbed in along the wall.

He dug out a new set of red and blue spider suit from the workshop, as well as several canisters of compressed web fluid for refilling.

After putting on the red and blue spider suit, Peter put his regular clothes back on over it.

The blonde Spider-Man was killed by Kingpin, and their ultimate goal was Kingpin's particle collider.

Therefore, before the final confrontation, he should not expose the fact that Spider-Man had been resurrected, so as not to arouse Kingpin's vigilance.

Then, Peter retraced his steps and left the home. He found another bus and headed to Aunt May's home, which was also in Queens, but in a different area. 

Shortly after he left, Mary Jane returned home. She walked into her husband's workshop, hoping to find some solace there, but found that the spider suit was missing!
