"Han, you were the one behind what just happened, weren't you?"
Peter Parker asked. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't imagine a normal person crying like that under normal circumstances. Even if his own father had died, he probably wouldn't have cried that hard. "Didn't you say he bullied you a lot? After today, he probably won't have the face to go to school anymore."
Han Yu didn't deny it. Instead, he smiled as he spoke. In fact, his heart was blooming with delight too.
Flash had cried because Han Yu had used the Storm Crying Potion on him. He'd thought it would only make him cry a little, but he hadn't expected the name to be literal. It really did make him cry up a storm!
This item is so much fun. Getting a few more wouldn't be bad either.
That was what Han Yu thought. All of a sudden, his head was filled with wicked ideas. How much fun would it be to use it on some deadly serious supervillains?
At the memory of what had just happened, Wanda burst out laughing too. It was the first time in her life she'd seen someone cry like that. If it had been used on a good person, or even an ordinary person, she might have had some objections.
But seeing it used on a school bully like Flash, Wanda could only laugh.
Starting with Flash, Peter Parker told Han Yu and Wanda all sorts of stories about school as they ate. Han Yu and Wanda listened with great interest.
One of them had gone to high school, but not abroad. The other had never gone to high school and was very curious about what life there was like. Both found Peter Parker's stories fascinating.
Just as they were enjoying their meal, an explosion suddenly came from a bank beside the restaurant. The shock wave shattered quite a few of the restaurant's windows.
Han Yu and the others were sitting by the window. When the explosion came, Han Yu used his mental power to deflect the shards of glass it sent flying.
They turned to look and saw a gang of robbers robbing an ATM beside the bank. They'd gotten hold of a bomb somehow and blown the machine open, and now they were taking the money out.
"What, want to give it a try?"
Han Yu saw the expression on Peter Parker's face. He wasn't afraid; on the contrary, he looked excited. Han Yu knew what he was thinking.
"Can I go?"
Although it was his choice to make, Peter Parker still instinctively asked Han Yu for permission. He already thought of Han Yu as an older brother, so whenever Han Yu was around, he instinctively asked for his opinion.
Han Yu smiled. "Of course. Be careful."
It was just a little ATM robbery. A robbery of this scale was suitable practice for Peter Parker.
After getting Han Yu's permission, Peter Parker gave a delighted whoop under his breath. He hurriedly grabbed the backpack beside him and ran to the restroom. Before long, a red figure swung over to the scene on a white line.
"Good evening, gentlemen. That's not a great choice of after-dinner exercise."
The first thing Peter Parker did after swinging in wasn't to bring the robbers to justice. He opened his mouth and made small talk.
The robbers exchanged glances. The next second, they pulled out their handguns and aimed them at Peter Parker in unison.
Peter Parker suddenly jolted, and his body reacted at once. He shot a web at one robber's gun hand and pulled, making the man slap his companion hard across the face.
The robber on the far side was momentarily stunned by Peter Parker's fighting style. By the time he came to his senses, a red fist was already growing larger before his eyes.
That punch knocked down a man who looked to weigh eighty kilograms, leaving him unconscious on the floor. Peter Parker bound the other two with webbing and tied them to the ceiling.
Peter Parker could hardly keep from shouting with delight, but when he saw the crowd outside growing larger and larger, he decided it was better to make a quick getaway.
"Wait, who are you?"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
Peter Parker was about to shoot a web and leave. He thought for a few seconds, then swung away on his web, leaving them with one sentence.
"I'm Spider-Man!"
Five minutes later.
Looking at Peter Parker, who had returned to him with his hair still a little messy, Han Yu smiled. "Enjoy yourself?"
"I sure did!"
Peter Parker's face was still full of excitement. He had lived an ordinary life for more than a decade, and this was his first time stopping a robbery. Although it had only been a small ATM robbery, it had stirred him deeply.
"All right, we've finished eating. Let's go home!"
Han Yu said. He had originally planned to give Peter Parker a lecture, warning him not to get so caught up in the excitement, but on second thought, he felt it wasn't necessary.
After all, he had already given him three life-saving safeguards. For a teenage hero his age, no amount of preaching would do any good without a few brushes with death.
After they had taken Peter Parker home, Wanda finally spoke to Han Yu on the way.
"He's only a high school freshman. Isn't it too dangerous to give him equipment like that?"
They had been out in public earlier, and she hadn't said it in front of Peter Parker out of consideration for his feelings. Even she thought it was a little too dangerous for a freshman boy to have equipment like that.
Han Yu said, "Those are his own abilities. They have nothing to do with my suit. Besides, even if I hadn't made it, sooner or later he would have made one himself. I've already put three life-saving safeguards in the suit. If he can still be a superhero after three brushes with death, that's his business. If he can't, those three safeguards will be enough to make him calm down."
After hearing Han Yu out, Wanda nodded and said no more. Peter Parker was also a Metahuman, and a sixteen-year-old boy at that.
If Han Yu hadn't helped him and had let him blunder around on his own, the outcome might have been even worse.
When they returned to the ground floor of the general store, Han Yu saw that the lights were on in the second-floor lounge. He pushed open the door, and from the first floor, he could hear the commotion upstairs.
He went up and discovered that it was Fire Fist Ace and Marco the Phoenix of the Whitebeard Pirates. The three of them were sitting together playing cards.
When they saw Han Yu and Wanda return, they greeted them casually.
Han Yu wasn't surprised. While they were eating earlier, he had received a message through the Green Lantern Ring. Quicksilver had asked if he could bring Ace and Marco over to hang out at the general store.
Han Yu had told him it was fine, as long as they didn't cause any trouble.
Leaving the second floor to Quicksilver and the others, Han Yu and Wanda went up to the third floor.
While Wanda took a bath, Han Yu sat alone on the lounge sofa, lost in thought.
From Peter Parker, who was still more or less an ordinary high school student, he had learned about most students' daily activities.
Usually, apart from going out to have fun, they stayed at home and slept.
Entertainment in the Marvel Universe was pitifully scarce. It wasn't that there were no games, but this had originally been a movie world, with considerable limitations.
Even though it had now become a real world, it only had a few simple 2D games. Whether in terms of production quality or plot, they fell far short of those in Han Yu's previous life.
"If I bring over the games, novels, movies and TV shows from my previous life, they'll definitely take the whole world by storm!"
Han Yu's eyes lit up. No matter how powerful he was, he was still only a young man in his early twenties. He couldn't spend all day thinking about how to complete missions or what missions to take on.
There was no need. With Han Yu's current strength, he already had enough to stand proudly above the world.
At that thought, Han Yu immediately ran into his room and turned on his computer.
"Why not try writing a novel first? This world's literature doesn't even include web novels. How are people supposed to let their pent-up feelings out? No wonder the crime rate is so high."
Han Yu had written web novels in his previous life. Unfortunately, he had been a minor flop, but things might be different in this world.
He opened a novel website. It was a huge site with its main server in China, called the Sky Dome Novel Website.
Perhaps because of advanced technology, the novel website actually connected China with the rest of the world. On it, readers could find authorized foreign novels translated into Chinese, as well as Chinese novels translated into foreign languages.
Han Yu couldn't help thinking, My motherland is awesome. Whether in his previous life or this one, China was still second to none.
After familiarizing himself with the novel pages, Han Yu deftly registered as an author and immediately published his first urban novel in the Marvel Universe.
The novel was called A Thrilling Book.
