I Am Leaving
Gwen followed Kino out of the classroom, and only when they were far away from the crowd did she finally ask, "How... did you do that?"
Kino shrugged and smiled. "A talent."
Gwen rolled her eyes at him but didn't press the matter further.
Arrived at the laboratory.
Kino also started gathering materials and began making Silk shooter.
Prepare chemical reagents.
The casing is made using a 3D printer.
Kino put away the last two small wristbands.
Gwen was eagerly anticipating it; when she saw the chemical reagent, she guessed what it was.
"Don't worry, I'll give it to you after school."
Kino it somewhat amusing.
If Gwen were given this now, she'd definitely be shooting webs all over the school; after all, who could resist a Silk -shooter that can scale walls and leap across rooftops?
"I can't wait for school to end."
After finally getting through school, Gwen took Kino to an abandoned warehouse and eagerly put on the Silk- shooter Kino had given her.
Gwen put on the Silk shooters, her eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.
She took a deep breath and pressed the launch button on the distant beam.
A silver Silk shot out instantly, accurately sticking to the beam, and then with a strong pull, the person was lifted into the air.
Wow!
Gwen shouted excitedly, the wind whistling past her ears, the feeling of weightlessness and rapid forward movement making her heart race.
She swung through the air in a graceful arc, skillfully adjusting her direction, and then launched Silk towards another wall.
The moment the Silk stuck to the wall, she used the momentum to run a few steps along the wall before launching herself again, weaving back and forth in the warehouse.
She had only just acquired it when she began to skillfully use the Silk shooter.
Kino leaned against a pillar, a doting smile on his lips, his eyes following Gwen's figure.
Watching her fly freely like a joyful little bird, occasionally letting out a gasp at a dangerous move, and then laughing triumphantly the next second after escaping danger, Kino felt that Gwen was full of energy and charm at this moment.
"Kino! Look!"
Gwen suddenly stopped in mid-air, hanging upside down and waving at Kino, her hair falling down and fluttering in the wind, her cheeks flushed with excitement.
"This is so cool! I feel like I've really become a superhero!"
As she spoke, she playfully swayed her body and fired Silk towards Kino.
The Silk stuck to a pillar next to Kino, and Gwen rushed towards him at top speed. Kino smiled and opened his arms to welcome Gwen's arrival.
A glint of excitement flashed in Gwen's eyes just as she was about to collide with Kino.
She reached out and gently wrapped her arm around Kino's waist, then shot out another Silk, changing direction, and the two of them soared into the air together.
Like prey caught by the mother spider.
Were you startled?
Gwen held Kino with one arm while shooting out Silk with the other, constantly adjusting the direction, like riding a roller coaster. Unfortunately, she didn't see any fear on Kino's face.
He always seemed calm and composed in her presence.
"Gwen, remember to replenish the Silk solution in the Silk emitters on time, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?"
However, the next second, Gwen personally experienced the consequences that Kino was about to describe.
The Silk solution in the Silk emitter ran out, and the two of them instantly plummeted straight down from a height of five meters.
Having only recently gained her powers, Gwen's mind went blank. In this critical moment, she instinctively hugged Kino tightly, trying to cushion his fall with her own body.
Gwen opened her eyes.
Why doesn't it hurt?
Turning her head, she saw a latex mattress underneath, perfectly absorbing the impact of her fall.
"Waaaaah--"
Kino's sobbing came from below. Gwen down and saw that Kino's neck was being strangled and her face was buried in her chest.
"Kino, are you alright?"
Gwen released her grip, looking at Kino, who was still on top of her, with a hint of guilt.
"With the protection of the Ghost-Spider, of course I'm fine."
Kino got up, subtly removing his hand from Gwen's Gwen buttocks; the feel was still familiar.
Gwen blushed, pretended not to notice, and got off the mattress.
"Luckily we had this mattress, otherwise it would have been dangerous. But did we have this when we came in?"
Gwen asked, puzzled.
"Yes, but you're so focused on the Silk shooters that you've forgotten about them."
Kino said without changing his expression.
Gwen thought about it and realized that must be it.
Otherwise, it couldn't have appeared out of nowhere.
Having experienced this minor danger, Gwen lost interest in continuing to play. She removed her Silk shooter and left the warehouse with Kino.
As for that latex mattress, let some homeless person who might happen to pass by have a chance to use it.
In the days that followed, Kino went to school with Gwen every day, and the two were inseparable, their relationship developing rapidly as they spent so much time together.
On campus, they attended classes and discussed problems together. During breaks, Kino would secretly give Gwen her favorite snacks, and Gwen would stand by Kino's side like a little guardian when he was surrounded by classmates asking questions.
All of this made Kino feel as if she had returned to her school days and was experiencing a sweet and innocent romance.
Kino also gave a lot of feedback on Gwen's uniform.
Until Kino saw a news report on television.
The Life Foundation's spaceship crashed.
Kino knew it was time for him to leave this little family.
That night, Gwen returned after carrying out her duty of justice, jumped straight into Kino's small room, and pounced on Kino's bed.
Kino sat in his chair and asked with a smile.
"Welcome back. How was your day?"
Gwen removed her hood; her blonde hair clung to her face with sweat, but there was no sign of excitement.
"Kino, the radio you modified for me to eavesdrop on police reports is amazing! Today I helped the police stop a group of robbers, and I even met one of my fans..."
Gwen chattered on about what had happened to her that day.
Kino listened quietly to Gwen's story, his gaze lingering gently on her flushed cheeks and bright eyes.
After she finished speaking, Kino slowly said, "Gwen, there's something I need to tell you."
Gwen sat up.
"What's wrong? You look so serious."
"I'm leaving."
"..."
Gwen's smile froze on her face, and the air in the room seemed to suddenly become thick and sticky.
It's time to leave.
Yes, Kino has her own home too.
Having lived together for the past few months, I've gotten used to his presence, and I come over every night to chat. Subconsciously, I feel that he will stay here forever.
"But don't worry, I'm just going back to the estate. I'll still stay in New York, just not be able to accompany you to school."
Seeing Gwen's dejected look, Kino felt a pang of heartache and quickly comforted her.
However, this also relieved Gwen, and most of the discomfort in her heart disappeared.
He beckoned to Kino with his finger.
Kino walked over, and Gwen pushed him down onto the bed and started hitting him with a pillow.
"You're making it sound like you're going abroad. Don't you know to say the important things first?"
Kino found an opening and hugged Gwen. The two fell onto the bed, their eyes meeting and their noses lightly touching.
