Chapter 71 New School Year
Yang Le saw this and was silent for a moment before speaking.
"We were a step late. Kingpin is under protection now."
"What do you mean?" Gwen looked at Yang Le, puzzled.
"Obviously, Kingpin surrendered himself voluntarily," Yang Le explained.
"Alert the Enemy. Rhino's death undoubtedly frightened Kingpin. He guessed that I would seek Revenge on him, so now surrendering himself is to seek the protection of the Nation."
"If I still take action against him in Prison, it would undoubtedly be a Challenge to this Nation."
"How could this be?" Gwen still didn't understand. "Kingpin is a Bad Guy."
"If he were just an Ordinary Criminal, it would be fine." Yang Le scratched his head helplessly.
"Unfortunately, Kingpin is a Big Bad Guy. There must be many people in the Government who don't want him to die."
Gwen said in shock, "Are you saying the Underworld Emperor has connections with Government Official?"
"Otherwise, do you think Kingpin could climb to this Position?" Yang Le sighed and sat on the Ground. "An Overpowering Underworld Emperor, maybe many people in the White House are connected to him."
Gwen fell silent. Under Yang Le's influence, Gwen was not like other young Superhero who rejected excessive Means against Bad Guy. She felt that Yang Le was right.
"If you reject Murder, then break the Limbs of those Criminal, so that they can never commit crimes again in their lives."
Gwen had also asked Yang Le, what if those Criminal had unspeakable sufferings?
Yang Le's Response was: "If he has the Strength to harm others, then he definitely has the Strength to Work. No matter what his reasons are, when he doesn't choose Work, but instead brandishes a knife at innocent people, his sufferings become bullshit."
Yang Le's words brought a huge impact to Gwen. Later, when Gwen was a Vigilante at night, she also discovered that what Yang Le said was indeed applicable to most situations.
Those Ordinary Criminal whose Legs or Hands were broken by them were like frightened birds. Very few people continued to commit crimes after coming out.
As for Supervillain, Yang Le's principle was to kill if possible. None of these guys are innocent, and more or less they are all a bit Psychopath. Killing them will definitely benefit Society.
In this way, under Yang Le's influence, although Gwen would not Murder, she would definitely not be soft. She basically maintained her Strength at the level of breaking other people's Bone.
Under the efforts of Gwen and Yang Le for several months, the Public Security of New York at night has indeed improved. Even in Hell's Kitchen, things like robbery would not happen anymore.
She also occasionally heard people talking about her, praising Spider-Woman's Contribution, and she even had Fans.
Gwen felt more and more Pride in what she was doing. She felt that what she was doing was meaningful.
But what happened today made her fall into Confusion again. She suddenly felt that everything she did was meaningless.
Yang Le saw that Gwen hadn't spoken for a long time, knowing that she was stuck in a Dead End again, so he opened his mouth to Comfort her.
"Don't be bound by Stereotype. The guys in the White House are not good people. Compared to stirring up trouble everywhere and provoking War, sheltering Criminal is already Minor Compared to Major."
"Thank you for your Comfort, my Mood is even worse now." Gwen complained, tore off her Mask, then walked to Yang Le's side and sat down beside him.
Seeing this, Yang Le, fearing that Gwen would be chilled, canceled the Transformation, and transformed from Big Chill back into Human form.
"Do you know Habby?" Gwen leaned on Yang Le's Shoulder and said softly.
"I have more than once been grateful that you can be by my side."
"Understandable." Yang Le echoed. "After all, I am indeed very excellent."
"At this Time, you should say 'Me too'," Gwen glared at Yang Le angrily, but found that he was also looking at her, but in her Eyes was resentment, while in his Eyes was Tender Affection.
Snowball quietly poked its head out and glanced at the two of them, then went back to standby.
Gwen smiled knowingly and put her head back on Yang Le's Shoulder.
"Don't smell my Hair."
"Oh! Please! Don't mention it again, Gwen."
———Line break———
"Ring ring ring!"
The rapid and noisy Alarm Clock sounded, and a pale white Hand stretched out from the Quilt and pressed the stop Button.
Gwen slowly broke free from the Quilt, glanced at the Time on the Alarm Clock, and she, who was still sleepy, instantly woke up.
"Crap! I'm going to be late!"
She hurriedly climbed out of the bed, but when she got out of bed, her feet were entangled by the Quilt, lost her Balance and crashed towards the Ground.
Gwen did not panic, stretched out her Hand to support the Ground, and a somersault brought her to the Locker. She randomly pulled out a set of Clothes from it and hurriedly put them on.
"Habby!" Gwen hopped to the Living Room while putting on her Socks. "Today is the first day of the new school year, why didn't you call me?"
However, there was no Response. Seeing this, Gwen skillfully came to the Restaurant. As expected, Breakfast was placed on the Dining Table, and Snowball was also charging next to the Microwave Oven.
Gwen walked to the Sink and simply washed up. Snowball, seeing Gwen wake up, also became active.
"Sorry Snowball, I don't have Time to play with you now." Gwen shot out Web and took the Sandwich from the Serving Tray into her Hand.
"I won't listen to Habby's message either, I have to hurry to school."
Snowball stretched out its tentacles and saluted to show understanding, and then onto Gwen's body.
Gwen finished the Sandwich in two or three bites, used Web to get her Schoolbag to her side, and walked to the Window. Snowball instantly covered Gwen's whole body, Spider-Gwen appeared.
Gwen pushed open the Window, Optical Camouflage activated, and swung Web towards Midtown High School.
You must be very curious about what happened this year, OK, let's go through it again from the beginning.
'My Name is Gwen Stacy. A year ago, I was bitten by a Radiation Spider Project, and then I became Spider-Man.'
Gwen shot out Web and shuttled between the Building.
'In the past year, my Partner and I fought Crime. We once confronted the Underworld Emperor who was feared—Kingpin!'
Gwen turned around to avoid a Signboard.
'In order to avoid us, Kingpin designed to have my dad—George Stacy arrest him and put him in Prison. With this Merit, my dad was promoted to Police Captain.'
The invisible Gwen arrogantly climbed over the wall and entered the Campus, walked to the Toilet, and transformed into Ordinary Person Gwen and walked out. It was not yet time for the bell, and there were still many Student talking and playing in the Corridor.
'After a period of depression, with the help of my Partner, I rekindled my fighting spirit and once again devoted myself to the Side Job of fighting Crime, until today.'
"Hello Gwen!"
Gwen heard someone calling her Name, turned around and found that it was Mary Jane, and Peter was also with her.
"Hi! Hello everyone," Gwen waved her Hand.
"I didn't see you all the Time just now. We thought you were going to be late. It seems Habby didn't forget to call you." Peter said thankfully.
"Oh, about this, it remains to be discussed." Gwen said gritting her teeth.
