Amazing Spider-Man!

That sentence directly pierced through Peter's long-standing self-hypnosis.

Yes, that was right. The reason this world's Peter had put on the suit was nothing else—he simply wanted revenge for Uncle Ben!

His Uncle Ben had been innocently murdered one night not long ago by a robber with a star-shaped mark on his wrist.

And the incompetent New York police still hadn't caught that robber.

So Peter had decided to take matters into his own hands.

That was how all his activities after becoming Spider-Man had begun.

No, at that time, perhaps he couldn't yet be called a "hero," because everything he did was merely for personal revenge.

Until just now, when his conversation with Captain Stacy had instead awakened him.

He remembered what Uncle Ben had told him: "With great power comes great responsibility."

So he fell silent.

He pondered.

He left the Stacy house and came here. After thinking for a minute, he made a decision that defied his ancestors—scratch that.

He was going to follow Gwen's father—a New York police captain with his own special task force.

Because he firmly believed Spider-Man was a dangerous amateur and wanted to arrest him.

Not only that, after tonight, he might even look down on Peter Parker and stop him from being with Gwen.

That was not something Peter wanted to see.

Coincidentally, during dinner, Captain Stacy had spoken to him about the importance of strategy. A car thief he had arrested not long ago was actually bait the New York City Police Department had planted to catch bigger fish, and Peter's recklessness had ruined the operation. That was also one reason Captain Stacy disliked Spider-Man.

Peter was someone who took advice well.

So now, he wanted to use a little "strategy" on Captain Stacy too.

That way, perhaps he could change some of Captain Stacy's opinions of Spider-Man.

As for Peter Parker, that could only be dealt with slowly later.

And at that very moment, another Peter took over.

After receiving the information, Peter's first reaction was, "Why did this world's Uncle Ben die tragically too? Does this world have Osborn as well?"

He then tried hard to search through the fragments of memories he had received.

This world did indeed have Osborn, but this world's Osborn seemed to have a close relationship with Peter Parker?

Norman Osborn had been Peter Parker's parents' superior and colleague, while Harry Osborn and Peter Parker had been the closest of childhood friends.

However, Harry had later been sent to a private school run by the Osborn family, while Peter attended public school, and the two had been separated ever since.

They hadn't met again up to now.

It seemed that Osborn in this world had nothing to do with Uncle Ben's death.

Peter was slightly relieved.

If Uncle Ben's death in this world had also been connected to Osborn, then after returning, he would have had to ask Aunt May whether she had a boyfriend named Ben XXX.

Oh, no, his world didn't have Osborn either!

Then it was fine.

Peter shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, no. This isn't the time to think about that. I need to focus and clear my name!"

Peter took the Spider-suit from his backpack and put it on.

Uh, it had to be said that although this Peter had been Spider-Man for about as long as he had, the suit's appearance and material were far better than his baby pajamas.

Especially that huge spider emblem. Wow, why had he never thought of designing it like that before?

"Ready? Then let's go!" Peter stood up, moved his body a little, felt the suit's tight fit, and leaped down.

His target was a police car below.

It was Captain George Stacy's car.

He seemed to have received some sort of call just now, then left home in a hurry without even finishing dinner.

Peter guessed that he must have received an urgent report.

Perfect. He could use this opportunity to recover a little of his image in Captain Stacy's eyes.

That was right, this was his "strategy."

Okay, perhaps this did not count as strategy at all. It was just a little image management.

It would prove that he wasn't fighting crime out of personal revenge.

"Woohoo! This is the feeling! I never expected that after swinging around my side for an hour, I'd get to swing around again over here!" Peter shouted as he raced through the streets.

"Whoa!" At a corner ahead, Peter hurriedly swung around it, only to see a couple making out in a dark alley, their restless hands composing a melody of surging hormones.

But Peter's appearance shattered the intimacy hanging in the air, and two bewildered pairs of eyes looked up at him.

Peter gave an awkward laugh and hurriedly apologized. "Sorry, don't mind me. I'm a professional Spider-Man. My eyes are only on my target. I absolutely didn't see you kissing, and I definitely didn't see your hands, uh—don't, don't pull out a gun!"

Peter landed both feet on the wall and fled along it in a flash.

That guy had no sense of sportsmanship. He actually made a move like he was about to pull out a gun and shoot him. Terrifying!

However, perhaps influenced by the original Peter, Peter was feeling a little nervous now too.

Because he didn't know what kind of trouble he would run into after following Captain Stacy, nor did he know whether Captain Stacy would hate him enough to put out a bounty on him if he ruined this operation too.

He could even picture his own face plastered across a wanted poster.

Oh, that was truly terrifying!

Peter shuddered and nearly fell.

"Ah, fate really loves messing with people. How did he end up falling for the daughter of someone who thinks his other side is public enemy number one? This guy really is 'lucky.'" Peter mocked the original Peter, his tone carrying a hint of bitterness.

Even so, he had to admit that the original Peter's girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, was indeed a real knockout.

A blonde with long legs, a gentle and intelligent top student.

Of course, he also liked a girl at school named Liz, but unfortunately, she barely ever gave him a glance.

Bzzzt~

Just as Peter was letting his thoughts wander while hurrying onward.

His Spider-Sense suddenly began going wild without warning!

No, it couldn't be said that there was no warning.

Because the Spider-Sense itself was the biggest warning!

At the same time, Peter felt something loosen in his hand.

His expression changed.

Oh no, the web hadn't fired!

The web-shooter had suddenly malfunctioned.

Peter was a little speechless, complaining about how unreliable this world's Spider-Man was.

Although his web-shooter was crude and couldn't compare to the one Iron Man later gave him along with the suit, it shouldn't suddenly break down in the middle of use.

And the consequence of it suddenly breaking down was exactly like this.
