"Is that real or fake?"
"It succeeded?"
After Hawk finished his call with Dr. Connors and hung up the phone, he felt it was quite miraculous.
After all, he had originally thought that Dr. Connors's regeneration experiment was unlikely to succeed, given that this World only had Spider-Woman and no extraordinary Spider-Man.
Never would he have thought...
Hawk got up and walked out of the bedroom, thinking about his conversation with Dr. Connors.
Dr. Connors was in a very good mood, so he revealed some more detailed information to Hawk.
For instance, during the recent mouse experiment, it was initially thought that this experiment would also end in failure, just like the previous ones.
However, an unexpected event occurred.
After one mouse was injected with the lizard serum, its life signs disappeared at the time, but after a while, its life signs reappeared, and the tail that had been severed due to an accident last month, when it took the opportunity to escape, also regrew at a visible speed after its vital signs reappeared.
This discovery greatly excited Dr. Connors.
Hawk, on the other hand, felt it was quite miraculous.
But it was only a momentary miracle.
After Hawk walked out of the bedroom, sat down at his folding table, and opened the U.S. lady's used laptop he bought from Skye for five hundred U.S. dollars, he put this matter out of his mind.
Compared to whether Dr. Connors's experiment succeeded, he was more concerned about the situation at Quantico Base.
Soon.
After searching for some information online, Hawk's expression once again became strange.
No intrusion.
Only an exercise.
This was a Washington, D.C. newspaper that reported on the intrusion alarm at Quantico Military Base at the time.
But in the newspaper, the Base's news spokesperson denied the claim of an intrusion, stating that it was just a routine exercise that night, but unexpectedly, during the exercise, a building collapse accident occurred, and more than a dozen soldiers unfortunately died in this exercise.
Hmm.
Quantico pushed everything onto the exercise.
This was also normal.
Still the same old saying.
That was Quantico, the location of the Marine Corps, next to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Federal Police Academy, and next to the CIA's Langley Headquarters. Under these circumstances, no matter what, the Military Base would definitely not admit to being invaded.
As for the others...
Hawk searched around but didn't find any useful clues.
He didn't even catch any related keywords in any relevant reports that could be linked to the young Black man's corpse.
Either the young Black man's corpse had not yet been discovered.
Or the young Black man's death was simply not worth the media's attention.
After all, every year, no, every day, many Black people die for various reasons. It's normal for a Black person with no identity to die without even making a ripple.
Hawk thought for a moment, shook his head, closed his laptop, got up, and walked into the bedroom to prepare for sleep.
The next day.
Hawk was woken up by a phone call.
Lying in bed, Hawk opened his eyes and saw the photo frame facing him. Only then did he reach out his right hand and grab his phone, which was charging on the nightstand.
"Hello."
"Come downstairs."
"..."
Hawk froze for less than a second, then got up from bed, put on his T-shirt, walked to the living room window, opened it, and then saw Gwen, standing across the street next to that yellow corolla, waving at him.
Oh.
No.
It should be his girlfriend Gwen now.
He still found it somewhat unbelievable.
Let me say it again.
Gwen Stacy is my girlfriend now.
Hawk thought to himself, smiled, and waved at Gwen downstairs, then hung up the phone and walked towards the door.
Before long.
Hawk appeared at the apartment building entrance, crossed the street, and came before Gwen.
"What's wrong?"
"Are you free tonight? My mom invited you over for dinner tonight."
"Uh..."
Lemon Perch!
When Hawk heard Gwen invite him to her house for dinner, the first thought that flashed through his mind was this.
After all, this dish, in a sense, could be considered well-known.
Hawk's thoughts swirled. He looked at Gwen's expectant gaze, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Okay."
"Then it's settled. What are you planning to do later?"
"Hmm, I guess I'll go to the library to read."
"..."
After saying this, Hawk looked at Gwen, who was silent but smiling at him, and chuckled, "This time, I'm really going to the library to read."
After all, school starts tomorrow.
Twelfth grade, the last year of high school. If nothing unexpected happens, New York University will send people this semester for the final assessment and scholarship confirmation.
Although he said he didn't even care if he could go to New York University.
But...
If he could, he still wanted to go. After all, attending New York University to study law and then finding a way to become a local prosecutor or even a judge was his dream before he awakened his Little Universe.
And for the past three years, he had been working hard for this.
Gwen looked at Hawk seriously, then a brilliant smile bloomed on her face.
"Let's go then."
"Where?"
"Aren't we going to the library? I'm also going to the library. It's perfect, you can take my car home after reading, but you have to come with me to Osborn Biological Industry first."
"Get in."
Hawk watched as Gwen, while talking, walked to the driver's seat, opened the door, and motioned for him to get in. He didn't hesitate, pulled open the passenger door, and sat down.
Just as he said.
He really planned to go to the library to study today.
It's about balancing work and rest.
In the Little Universe, the Phoenix star chart transformed into a Phoenix, absorbing the colorful gamma nium from Quantico Base, which flowed within the Phoenix star chart.
Phoenix was still fully refining the gamma nium at this moment.
For an entire day, Hawk and Gwen came out of Osborn Biological Industry, arrived at the library, and then stayed quietly reading books.
He wanted to go to New York University.
Gwen wanted to go to Berkeley.
Hmm.
Both of them were working hard for their future.
In the afternoon.
When Hawk left, he registered and took the book he hadn't finished reading.
By the time he walked out of the library, Gwen was already waiting in the car.
A man nearby, who had just quickly gone in to borrow a book and came out, screamed in agony as he saw a parking ticket tucked under his windshield wiper.
Hawk watched this scene. After getting into the car, he asked curiously, "Didn't your car get a ticket?"
Gwen shook her head and said with a smile, "Dad registered my license plate into the Police system."
Hawk suddenly understood.
