"Woo——"

A dull voice echoed in his ears, and Peter, who was wearing a bat helmet, suddenly woke up. He woke up gasping for breath, and then looked around in confusion. He felt inexplicable fear and couldn't even remember where he was.

I subconsciously wanted to get up, but immediately felt severe pain all over my body, as if I had just been beaten and then thrown into the washing machine to dry.

By the way...I did get beaten up.

After confirming that no one was around, Peter took off his helmet and gently rubbed his stinging temples with one hand, and his recent memories gradually became clearer.

Yesterday, after fighting Bullseye and the Prowler one after another, he finally reunited with Diane, and at the same time met his childhood sweetheart Gwen Stacy. However, Peter, who was extremely tired, did not care about anything else and came directly to this place with the two of them.

I found a place behind the safe house and fell asleep.

But the first sleep experience after time travel was really terrible.

Holding back the pain, Peter stood up. He looked around and found that he was in a strange concrete room.

The room is very empty. Apart from the stainless steel bed under him, there is only an empty iron shelf. The gray concrete walls are decorated with various futuristic alloys.

A pale white chandelier hangs at regular intervals on the top of the room, making it feel like you are inside an air-raid shelter.

Putting on his helmet again, Peter pushed open the iron door and came to a corridor, and iron doors stood on both sides of the corridor.

It’s hard to imagine that this is actually inside a subway tunnel.

This so-called "safe house" is actually more like a small shelter.

Its internal space is thousands of feet, enough to accommodate at least twenty people.

Only the Bernano family, which undertook the government's subway construction project, could build this "safe house" to such a scale.

This "safe house" was built during the Cold War, and its main purpose was to defend against possible nuclear strikes.

But as time passed, the place was gradually abandoned and forgotten, and eventually only Diane and her father knew of its existence.

Compared with the previous "safe house", this one is undoubtedly much more reliable.

Walking along the corridor, Peter soon came to a hall, and then he was surprised to find Gwen and Diane sitting at a round table discussing something.

Gwen first noticed Peter, then she curled her lips and said helplessly:

"Brother, I think you are more dedicated to COS Batman than your own job. You actually wear this broken shell even when you sleep. Is this some kind of spiritual symbol?"

Peter ignored her. He went straight to Diane and carefully examined her condition.

Then, as expected, a large amount of bloodshot eyes were found in her eyes, and her eyes were dim and lifeless. At this time, Diane seemed to be a walking corpse.

"How long have you been awake?"

Peter frowned and expressed concern. If he remembered correctly, Diane had not slept with him once since they met. Even a conservative estimate was that Diane's last sleep was two days ago.

But Diane smiled bitterly and waved her hand. Obviously she could no longer care about her sleeping condition at this time. She pointed at Gwen and said slightly excitedly:

"Peter... Bateman, I have reached an agreement with this ghost Spider-Man. She will provide some assistance in our next operations, so you may need to cooperate with her next."

Seemingly realizing that Peter did not want to reveal his identity to Gwen, Diane deliberately did not say Peter's name.

She then pushed a piece of densely written paper in front of Peter.

"As for Milk's supporter, the new character Fisk, Ghost Spider-Man has dealt with him a lot. It seems that he is not an unknown person, he has just been hiding under the water.

It’s no wonder he was able to let Milk take control of the family in just a few days. My stupid cousin probably still doesn’t understand that sooner or later he will become the opponent’s puppet, and with his level, sooner or later he will be sold.

So our current goal is not to defeat Milk, but he is now a stabilizer. If we kill him, other powerful members of the family will not immediately recognize my inheritance rights, and they will definitely fight for power.

So the key to our action is to rescue my father. Only he has enough prestige and means to suppress others. Only by rescuing my father can we regain control of the family after defeating Milk."

Diane was very excited at this time. She finally came up with a feasible plan and kept talking while holding up the piece of paper.

"Now, if nothing happens, my father will definitely be in Fisk's hands. He will definitely not kill his father easily, otherwise he will become Milk's scapegoat.

And Milk has enough reasons to get rid of him and attack him, so he needs my father as a means to check and balance Milk.

So now our top priority is to collect intelligence on my father's location, and I will use the cash provided by Cotton to recruit some people.

Once I can confirm my father's location, I will send them to attack head-on, and you can secretly rescue my father."

However, Peter scratched his chin in embarrassment, and then raised his hands tremblingly, like a primary school student who had made a mistake.

"That...that cash is gone..."

"No more?!"

Diane, who had been talking endlessly just now, was stunned for a moment. She stared at Peter, and with her red eyes, she looked like an angry tiger.

Peter subconsciously took a step back and then said helplessly:

"When we were attacked, I only had time to save you. The box of cash and weapons were left in the car. After my attacker was defeated by me, he used incendiary bombs to burn the car and the box of cash in order to escape.

Naturally..."

Seeing Diane's frightened and angry look, Peter quickly explained:

"But not everything was burned. At least the two bundles of banknotes you left for me are still there."

Then Peter hurriedly searched his arms, but only took out a bundle of scraps of paper.

In the battle with Bullseye, it was naturally impossible for Peter to dodge Bullseye's bullets. Peter was able to resist many bullets simply by relying on his strong body.

Although the person is fine, the banknotes in the clothes are not that strong. After being pierced by bullets and burned by prowlers, naturally not many survived.

Diane stared blankly at the crumbs in Peter's hand and murmured:

"I...so we don't have a penny now...so we are poor now?"

Gwen made a timely stab.

"Strictly speaking, he should be called a pauper."

Diane took two steps back as if she had been hit hard. Peter was about to step forward to help her, but Diane stood firm on her own. Then she glanced at the two of them and said softly:

"I'm tired..."

Then he turned around and walked tremblingly towards the depths of the "safe house".

However, Diane fell directly to the ground before taking two steps. Fortunately, Gwen reacted quickly and grabbed Diane with spider silk.

Just as the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, dark red traces gradually expanded on Diane's dress, and the traces exuded a familiar smell to Peter.

It's blood! Diane is injured?!

Gwen obviously recognized the blood stains and quickly opened Diane's clothes to look for wounds.

Suddenly there was a snap, and a soft, sticky sound sounded in my ears.

It was an object stained red with blood... shaped like a band-aid... David, who was not unfamiliar with physiological knowledge, recognized the object instantly.
