After Corin finished his formal self-introduction, he suddenly leaned close to Peter's ear and said in a low voice:
"My name is Corin, I'm staying at the Manhattan Hotel, if you run into trouble you can come find me."
After speaking, he bent slightly and politely greeted Inspector George and his daughter, his manner showing a trace of noble elegance.
He turned and left, light and carefree. .
Peter could not believe that this elegant and powerful man in front of him had just directly told him his personal information like that.
He did not even hide where he was staying. This was simply the highest level of trust toward him.
In secret he clenched his fists and made up his mind that he must follow him and learn well. He himself also had to become someone as elegant and powerful as Corin.
Watching Corin's departing back, Peter Parker's eyes were full of deep respect.
After all, as a student, although he had awakened extraordinary abilities, in terms of mentality he was still a kid.
Even though he had stopped many crimes, he did not think of himself as a hero.
As for this whole incident, Peter actually felt guilty in his heart.
It was all because he had vainly revealed the gene decay rate algorithm to Doctor Connors back then.
What was more, the one who finally eliminated the Lizardman and saved everyone was not himself, but Corin.
At most, all he had done was install the antidote into the launch device, which was something that was originally his responsibility.
Without Corin, Peter did not dare imagine what price he alone would have to pay fighting the Lizardman, he might even die.
Staring in the direction where Corin had disappeared, Peter did not leave for a long time.
This man who had saved him more than once radiated a powerful charm, so reliable and reassuring. How could one not long for that?
Little Spider made up his mind, he had to go as soon as possible… no, tomorrow.
Tomorrow he would go to the Manhattan Hotel to find Corin and see how he viewed and solved all kinds of problems.
———
After saying goodbye to the three of Little Spider's group, Corin had not gone far when his phone started ringing urgently.
Alyssa's aggrieved voice came from the other end of the line:
["It's all your fault!"]
["My phone has been blown up."]
Corin's head was full of question marks, but it was inconvenient to talk over the phone.
"We'll talk when I get back."
———
[Early the next morning, Manhattan Hotel]
["Hello, viewers."]
["As you can see, behind me is the Osborn Building that suffered heavy damage last night."]
["A Lizardman born from a gene experiment attempted to spread the toxin that caused his mutation throughout the entire city."]
["In the end, after tireless efforts 'the New York police' successfully stopped his crazy plan. (rolls eyes)"]
["According to the investigation, this Lizardman was none other than Doctor Curtis Connors, a researcher at Osborn Industries in charge of a certain gene project."]
["For decades, in order to cure his severed arm, he never stopped exploring the field of genetic engineering and finally developed a drug that could alter human genes."]
["It was precisely because he impatiently tried to personally use this drug that he ultimately turned himself into a monster, causing severe destruction to the surrounding neighborhoods and the Osborn Building."]
["So far, Osborn has not made any statement."]
["At the same time, as for Spider-Man, I'm sure everyone is no stranger to him."]
["Ever since this remarkable man appeared, he has always been controversial. Some people say he is a superhero who upholds justice, others say he is a troublemaker who disregards the law."]
["But I think, at least when the public is in danger, they would probably hope for someone like him to show up in time and protect them."]
["Also, in last night's emergency broadcast, a mysterious figure appeared, the Crimson Silver Duke."]
["That's right, although we still do not know his name, everyone seems quite happy to call him that."]
["This mysterious and elegant man left a deep impression on us with his outstanding looks and overwhelming abilities."]
["Who exactly is he?"]
["Will there from now on be one more superhero in New York City?"]
["Or has there been one more outlaw?"]
["What do you think?"]
["This is Christine Elliott bringing you the report."]
Christine was the female reporter who, after spending a wonderful night with Tony Stark at the Malibu villa in California, was mercilessly thrown out by Assistant Pepper.
"Ah! Boss!"
Watching Alyssa, who ran over screaming with her arms wide open and finally managed to hang herself on him, Corin showed a wry smile.
His hands gently stroked that silky waist, and he patted Alyssa lightly, signaling that she was being a bit too enthusiastic and should hurry and get down.
Although it really did feel very nice.
"Boss! You're so handsome! I'm in love with you!"
Getting down from Corin, Alyssa stared wide-eyed at him, her emerald-blue eyes locked onto him, a faint blush rising on her face.
"Did you hear that? They're calling you the Crimson Silver Duke~"
"That name fits the way you look on a mission so well~"
"They're really good at naming!"
"..."
Yes, Corin was famous now.
Ever since he had shown off his overwhelming methods and elegant bearing in front of the cameras last night, the people of New York had gained a new mysterious idol in their hearts.
At the moment, the mainstream media were all enthusiastically talking about Corin and Spider-Man, with related reports flooding the city.
And the reports about Corin were overwhelmingly dominant.
That blazing crimson formal suit and the carved pure-silver mask, together with his jet-black hair and elegant manner, had won the favor of countless women.
You could say it hit them right in the heart. With such a good-looking and powerful gentleman, who would still like Spider-Man.
Even though the public knew nothing about Corin, it did not stop people from giving him a very fitting elegant title, the Crimson Silver Duke.
As the person in question, Corin savored this title and silently complained in his heart, "That's it? Gotta say, these people really do name things in such a simple and rough way, so cringe."
Obviously, Corin was not very satisfied with the nickname he had unexpectedly gained.
But the news that Alyssa said next made him jolt in spirit.
"The commission from Osborn Industries has arrived, but it's not the 600,000 we originally agreed on, it's 1 million dollars."
"They even specially called to express their respect and warm greetings to you."
Having finally calmed down from her excitement, as soon as Alyssa started talking about the mission reward, her emotions got worked up again.
At this moment she had turned into a little money-grubber, her eyes sparkling with dollar signs.
"It's only been a few days? And we already closed a million-dollar deal!?"
"Following you is simply the wisest decision of my life, no exceptions!"
The reason Alyssa was so excited was because in all these years she had never earned such a huge amount of reward on a mission.
'A full one million dollars…'
'OMG~'
Alyssa felt that ever since she met Corin, her emotions had been like riding a roller coaster.
There was no most hyped, only more hyped.
Crazy intense.
This was the life she wanted.
Corin, on the other hand, was thinking about Osborn's intention in increasing the commission this time.
"These capitalists really all have the same face, they bully the weak and fear the strong."
"They just want me to, for the sake of the money, not interfere too much in their rotten business in the future~"
"Who cares?"
"Hmm… unless there's money to be made."
Thinking of Obadiah's false sincerity back then when he "compensated" him with 500,000, Corin realized their behavior was exactly the same.
He curled his lip in disdain and continued asking what exactly had made Alyssa, a veteran bounty hunter, feel the need to call and complain to him.
At this point, Alyssa's excited smile instantly collapsed, and she began to complain sadly.
As it turned out, when Corin was showing his might on TV, many people got the phone number left by "Cockroach" from the deals.
This was no secret.
In fact, that was a new number Alyssa had gotten, because she was the one who took this mission.
The result was, Alyssa's phone got blown up.
All kinds of jobs came pouring in. The poor Alyssa had turned into a switchboard girl and literally did not sleep the whole night.
"It was only when the phone overheated and shut down that I finally had a chance to use my original number to call you for help."
"Boss~ do you see my heavy dark circles?"
