NOVEL FROG Chapter 20: Jin Bin
Gwen saw her father furrow his brows, feeling a bit disappointed for some unknown reason.
Gwen still clearly remembered what her father said when Spider-Woman first appeared on the news.
Although George didn't dislike Spider-Woman, he looked down upon the actions of these superheroes.
Even now, Gwen still remembered what George said - "If someone doesn't have a guilty conscience, why would they wear a mask on their face?"
Upon hearing these words, Gwen had once considered confessing to her father, but in the end, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
Seeing her father's expression again at this moment, Gwen couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Seeing George furrow his brows, Peter was initially taken aback, but then he understood what was going on.
As a police officer in New York City, George should be quite troubled by these superheroes.
After all, the work of these superheroes is similar to that of George and his fellow officers.
If all the criminals in New York City were caught by the superheroes...
Then their group of New York police officers would be rendered useless.
At that time, the criticism from the outside world would be directed straight at the New York City police officers.
Definitely, superheroes originally don't have the authority to enforce the law, and it's difficult for George to approve of such behavior where they freely use their powers on ordinary people.
Although Peter guessed what George was thinking, he still smiled and said, "Uncle George, Gwen and I were discussing the news we saw this morning."
"Uncle George, to be honest, it's unbelievable, Spider-Woman encountered... Superman from the DC comics?"
"Superman isn't that a character from the comics? How could he appear in the real world?"
George heard this and gripped the steering wheel, looking at the faces of the two with a solemn voice: "In fact, many people have this speculation."
"Last night, if that person wearing a black battle suit really is Superman, then it's... absurd."
"But whether it's that suspected Superman guy or Spider-Woman, the New York City Police Department will do everything in their power to find out their true identities!" George's voice was calm, but it was unclear whether he was making a promise to Gwen or to Peter.
...
Outside Midtown Science High School, Peter and Gwen stood side by side.
Watching George's police car drive away, Gwen's mood seemed a bit down.
Being denied by her own father undoubtedly struck a blow to Gwen, who had just made up her mind to become a true superhero last night.
"Gwen, are you okay?" Peter gently leaned against Gwen's shoulder.
"I'm fine, Peter." Gwen shook her head, forcing a smile on her face.
But this forced smile seemed a bit strained in Peter's eyes.
After thinking for a moment, Peter could only offer some comfort: "Uncle George is the police commissioner, and he must consider many aspects more than we do."
"Actually, apprehending criminals is the job and duty of the police officers, and the appearance of superheroes does make it a bit difficult for them."
"But no matter what, it can't shake the beloved position of Spider-Woman in my heart."
Peter's words inexplicably warmed Gwen's heart.
Adjusting her emotions, Gwen struggled to tiptoe and pat Peter's shoulder: "Thank you, Peter."
"Thank me for what?"
"Hey! I'm here maintaining your beloved Spider-Woman, Peter. You should thank me!"
Peter found it inexplicably funny, thinking Gwen's excuse was really lame.
Since Gwen didn't tell the truth, Peter decided to tease her: "So, Gwen, is this what you're upset about? The beautiful Gwen Miss is actually considering me?"
"Peter, you rascal!" Gwen puffed up her cheeks and gritted her teeth.
For some reason, Gwen felt that Peter's smile was a bit smug, and it made her want to take a big bite out of him to vent her frustration!
...
The underworld of New York City is ruled by the notorious Kingpin.
Compared to the Kingpin in the MCU world, the Kingpin in Gwen's Spider-Verse undoubtedly exudes a stronger sense of oppression and intimidation.
Mainly because the Kingpin in Gwen's Spider-Verse is of a towering stature, covered in muscles all over, making him look like a small hill from a distance.
Perhaps it's because the Kingpin's physique is too robust, his head appears somewhat small under such a huge body.
In Kingpin's office at the moment.
Kingpin sat behind his desk, clasping his hands together, his expression indifferent as he shifted his gaze to the man in sunglasses in front of him.
"Lawyer Murdock, how is the information I requested? Have you confirmed it?" Kingpin asked in a deep voice while sitting in his chair in front of the desk.
Matt Murdock, whether in the MCU world or in most of the comics he appears in, is a well-known Daredevil.
But in Gwen's Spider-Verse, Matt Murdock is purely a villain.
As Kingpin's top enforcer, Matt Murdock has earned a fearsome reputation in New York City with his brutal methods.
"Boss, the results of the investigation are out. That damn Spider-Woman did indeed set foot in the Hell's Kitchen last night."
"Besides Spider-Woman, there's also the widely circulated Superman on the internet..."
"I have personally confirmed that there were indeed many eyewitnesses who saw Superman on that road last night."
"And the surveillance footage from the nearby convenience store further confirms this news."
As for whether the other party is truly Superman, in my opinion, it may be open to question.
Currently, the individual who resembles Superman, apart from wearing a black battle suit with an 'S' symbol on the chest, being able to fly, and having astonishing physical strength, has not displayed many of the iconic abilities that Superman possesses.
"I understand what you mean, Lawyer Ma. Are you suggesting that the guy is likely someone disguising themselves as a super-powered individual?" Jin Bing furrowed his brows slightly and lightly tapped his fingers on the desk.
"In that case, let's put this matter aside for now."
"Matt, I want you to go to Washington Bridge with Rhino tonight and bring something back."
"It's a meteorite from outer space that Vulture discovered."
"According to Vulture, there seems to be something special about that meteorite, with signs of life energy."
"If that damn S.H.I.E.L.D and the recently active Spider-Woman want to cause trouble, let them pay a painful price!" A cold gleam flashed in Jin Bing's eyes.
"Yes, Boss!"
