Peter swung steadily onto Hawk's apartment rooftop.
"Wow, a spider..."
"Peter?"
Hawk looked at the spider demon on the ground, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Peter pull off his mask, revealing his true face, and his face showed surprise.
After removing the mask, Peter smiled shyly.
He now agreed with what Gwen had said earlier.
"Hawk, your acting is really not good."
"Is that so?"
Hawk was slightly taken aback, looked at Peter who nodded seriously, and shrugged: "Okay, then I'll keep trying."
If one person says his acting is bad, maybe it's that person's perspective.
But if two people say it...
Hawk began to reflect on whether his acting was really that bad.
Peter smiled, and then talked about the lizard doctor he had just dealt with.
"By the way, Hawk, did you see what happened just now?"
"Part of it, but just as I was about to look, you and that lizardman had already disappeared."
Hawk told the truth.
He saw the beginning and the end, but not the middle.
No worries, he'd see it on the news tomorrow.
As everyone knows,New York City media reacts incredibly quickly.
Less than three minutes after Dr. Lizard appeared on the Williamsburg Bridge, he saw three media helicopters belonging to different television stations circling overhead.
Peter, hearing Hawke's words, paused slightly, glanced around instinctively, then looked towards the Williamsburg Bridge, which was almost invisible to the naked eye.
From here?
Peter looked at Hawke in surprise.
Hawke smiled and said, "My eyesight is pretty good, but yours isn't bad either."
Peter nodded again, almost unconsciously.
Indeed.
If he concentrated, he could see the Williamsburg Bridge clearly from here.
Peter thought to himself, then his eyes lit up.
"Did you see where the lizardman went?"
"No."
"Okay."
Peter sighed, "I didn't expect it to be so strong. It threw me off balance, and by the time I was ready to retaliate, it had already jumped into the river."
Hawk asked curiously, "How strong do you think it was?"
Peter glanced at Hawk, thought seriously for a moment, then frowned and said, "It's stronger than me, but not as fast or agile, though it's faster underwater."
Got it.
One-punch guy.
He didn't even need to unleash his full power.
Hawk listened to Peter's assessment, thought to himself, nodded, and prepared to go back to sleep.
But just then.
Peter seemed to have thought of something and said to Hawk, "However, this lizard monster gave me a familiar feeling.
I was thinking about what that feeling was when it threw me off balance."
Hawk looked at Peter.
"So, where do you think that feeling came from?"
"Hmm."
Peter nodded and looked at Hawk.
Hawke remained silent, waiting for Peter to continue.
But seeing the look in Peter's eyes after he nodded, he was first taken aback, then realized what Peter meant.
"You mean me?"
"Yes."
"How could that be?"
Hawke felt a sense of absurdity.
How could Dr. Lizard have his aura? He had only been to Dr. Connors's lab once.

Besides, even if there was a lingering scent from that handshake, more than two months have passed.
How could it still be there now?
He's not a goddess, and Dr. Connors isn't a simp, unlike those simps who don't even bother to wash their hands after shaking hands with their goddesses.
Peter looked at Hawke and said seriously, "I had contact with you at the old gymnasium last time, so I have a very deep impression of your scent.
However, the scent of that lizard monster was very weak, almost imperceptible. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken so long to remember it."
Hawke frowned at Peter's confident words.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm not wrong."
Peter nodded, then thought for a moment, "That lizard monster gave me the feeling that he had contact with you, hence the lingering scent of you, just like Gwen also had your scent lingering, but Gwen's scent was much stronger than that lizard monster's."
Hearing this description, Hawke's expression suddenly understood.
He thought Peter was going to say something else.
So that's it.
Hawke chuckled softly and looked at Peter: "Then I think I know who he is."
Peter's eyes lit up.
"Who?"
"Curtis Connors, from the Osborn Bio-Industry Regeneration Lab.
Gwen went there yesterday, and Dr. Connors is also researching lizards to find regeneration technology."
If Peter had said that the lizard doctor retained his information, he would have been completely confused.
But when Peter compared it with Gwen's aura, he understood.
If his aura was one, then Gwen, who was with him, had absorbed 0.5 of it, and the day before yesterday morning, Gwen had gone to Osborn Bio-Industry again and had contact with Dr. Connors.
So, theoretically speaking, the barely perceptible aura that Peter smelled from Dr. Connors must have come from this.
Peter's mouth dropped open in astonishment as Hawke revealed the true form of the lizard monster.
"It's him?"
"You know him too?"
"Yes, I vaguely remember seeing him with my dad."
"Okay."
After Hawke understood what the residual aura of Dr. Connors was all about, he was completely relieved.
He yawned.
"Alright, it's too late, I'm going to sleep."
"...Okay."
Peter was still planning to continue discussing the dangers of the lizard monsters with Hawk, but seeing Hawk's expression, he had no choice but to give up.
"Goodnight, Hawk."
"Goodnight, spider demon!"
"Uh, I'm not a spider demon."
"Are you sure?"
Hawk, who had already turned and walked halfway back, turned back, tilted his head, and looked at Peter with a half-smile: "Come on, tell me loudly, where do your spider silk come from?"
Peter opened his mouth, his expression turning serious.
"Goodnight, Hawk."
"Goodnight, Peter."
This time, Hawk didn't tease Peter.
Soon.
Peter swung away on the swing.
Hawk also went home, ate his fried chicken leg, took a cold shower, and then crawled into his bed to sleep.
Meanwhile.
Beneath the ground in Queens, in the network of sewers that could even become homes for countless homeless people during winter blizzards.
As a beast-like roar came from the depths, the roar gradually subsided.
Until finally.
The roars ceased.
They were replaced by a human groan!
