Then Skye also sent a message: [I covered for you and told Gwen and the others that you were out playing. Remember to reward me~]
"I guess…" Cindy saw him checking messages and probably guessed something. "You're leaving, aren't you?"
"If you want me to stay overnight, I wouldn't object."
Ye Li teased her, then added, "Oh, and you were a bit impulsive today, so you'll probably skip class. But I have some connections at the school, so you don't have to worry about losing credits."
"Mm… Remember to miss me." Cindy didn't care about school; she only thought of Ye Li.
"I will, my good Cindy~"
Ye Li bid Cindy farewell, "Whenever you want to join the Ghost Spider Club, you can contact me. I'm leaving now."
"I'll consider it."
Cindy peeked her head out from behind the door.
"You must remember what I told you, be careful of Morlun and his inheritors!"
"Got it~"
…
The next day.
Ghost Spider Club.
"Wow, big brother, you had so much fun yesterday! You suddenly ran out to play and were gone for half the day."
Jessica looked at Ye Li suspiciously, "I heard someone at school say you were chased by three girls?"
Gwen, standing nearby, winked at Ye Li and interjected with a smile, "Some people also said it was thirty~"
Gwen is so good~
Ye Li knew she was deliberately saying that to help him out, "See, Jessica, the more it spreads, the more outrageous it gets. Rumors aren't credible."
"I don't care about you."
Seeing Gwen being so unhelpful, Jessica dropped the subject and instead said, "Li, you said the gift for Ghost Spider is ready, and you can contact Ghost Spider now?"
Ye Li suppressed his smile, trying not to subconsciously look at Gwen, "Of course, you can notify her. I'll wait here."
Ye Li had already brought over the series of improved Spider-Web Shooters that Tony had made.
He could already meet Gwen… Oh no, Ghost Spider.
Chapter 33: Dou Dizhu! Crushing Victory! Super Spider Sense!
[Agent Morse, after much investigation, these are the only obvious conclusions. I doubt your ability.]
[Hill, don't talk to me in that tone!]
Barbara said angrily through the communicator.
[Oh my god! Do you know what it feels like to be chased and struck by lightning like crazy?]
[No! You don't know!]
[I feel like I'm going to die from anger!]
Hill: [So, according to you, Skye has awakened her powers, controlling lightning?]
Barbara: [Very likely!]
[Then let's put this matter aside for now.]
[Lizard Man has appeared again, at Midtown High School.]
[You are one of the closest Agents. If convenient, go investigate and gather some information.]
Barbara: [I'm not convenient! I've already disguised myself and arrived at the Club's entrance!]
[Then, I wish you a successful investigation.]
Hill, on the other side, didn't insist and hung up the communication.
For minor incidents like Lizard Man within New York City, S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't invest too much effort.
"Alright, this time, by infiltrating the Club, I'll definitely find something."
Barbara took out a slider mirror and checked her appearance.
After confirming her look was like a student, she encouraged herself, "Go, Barbara!"
…
"Hello~ Is anyone here?"
Hearing the gentle female voice from outside the Club.
Fatty Ned's eyes lit up, and he scurried to the door, opened it, and poked his round head out to look.
He saw a lady smiling at him.
The lady was dressed in trendy sportswear, with long blonde hair tied into twin ponytails behind her head, and a white baseball cap tilted on her head, creating a very youthful and vibrant look.
"Oh~ Hello, beautiful lady!"
Ned quickly opened the door all the way, eagerly saying, "Of course there's someone here. May I ask what brings you here, are you here to join the Club?"
Barbara didn't rush to state her purpose, first asking him, "Is Jessica Ye at the Club?"
"Are you a fan of Female Knight?"
Ned scratched his face, embarrassed, "That's really unfortunate… She and Gwen just left the Club right before you arrived."
"Is that so…"
Barbara thought for a moment, then asked, "Are Mr. Ye Li and Ms. Kory Sutter Skye at the Club?"
"Oh, they are."
Ned quickly pointed inside, afraid the new beauty would leave, "Look, they're right there!"
Barbara's gaze followed his refer to, looking inside—
Ye Li slapped two poker cards on the table: "Pair of 2s!"
Skye looked at the good hand of cards she held, her pretty eyebrows furrowed, "Can't beat that…"
This shouldn't be happening. With her hacker-level computing power, how come she hadn't won a single game against Li so far?
Ye Li, on the other hand, was very happy.
Super Spider Sense is so useful; he keeps winning at cards. He should find time to go to a casino like Las Vegas to make some money.
"Plane!"
"Straight!"
"Joker Bomb!"
Under Ye Li's continuous offensive, the poor "farmers" Skye and Mary Jane were quickly defeated by the wicked "landlord," losing another round.
"Darn it!"
Skye looked at the few cards she hadn't played and felt her self-esteem was hit…
She discussed with Mary Jane, "Jane, next round, we can't let Li be the landlord! Otherwise, we'll all lose!"
Hmm… If you can't beat them, join them. If she teamed up with Ye Li, at least she could comfortably lie down for a round.
Ye Li quickly shuffled the poker cards while pointing to his face, "Come on, honor your bet."
Mary Jane smiled softly.
She leaned her neck forward and gently kissed Ye Li's cheek.
She and Ye Li didn't have that kind of ambiguous relationship.
But in the United States, this could also be a polite gesture and was not a big deal.
It just added a bit of fun to the game, and neither party cared.
However, when it was Skye's turn, she was supposed to kiss Ye Li on the other side of his face, but Ye Li pointed to his mouth, "Kiss here~ Skye."
"Huh? Why?" Skye paused.
Ye Li blinked, "Because you're special."
"Heh, Gwen and Jessica just left, and you're already so arrogant~"
Although Skye said that, she was still very happy and leaned in to give Ye Li a light kiss on the mouth~
Ned, standing nearby, was incredibly jealous, sourly eating lemons…
He wanted to play that kind of game too.
Unfortunately, no one wanted to play with him. ⑧
Peter? ⑨
Oh, he couldn't imagine that scene… ③
…Speaking of which, where did Peter go? He's gone, just like Harry. ⑨
Looking at the news, Lizard Man appeared at the school. He hoped Peter wasn't at school. ⑥
