I'm not Spider-Man, even though I'm parasitized by an alien!

"of course can."

"When?"

"anytime."

Chapter 209 What is a surprise?!

Once she establishes the multiverse in which Peter and Gwen reside, she can find a way to bring them into her camp.

"After we leave, will we be able to come back?"

Jessica replied, "Of course, with this bracelet you can travel through the multiverse at any time."

She didn't say what came next—"At the same time, you also have to shoulder some responsibilities."

That's so cool!

Gwen is now even more certain that this veteran Spider-Woman is her idol.

"Are we leaving now?"

Spider Silk frowned and asked the group a question.

Gwen looked at Peter questioningly, and Peter shook his head. "Could you give me a little time? I need to do something."

The following night.

Wright, the truck driver who had once given Peter a ride, was driving his truck to his lodgings.

There was a girl in the passenger seat at that moment.

The girl also hitched a ride on the way.

Judging from the girl's appearance, she must have suffered a lot.

This reminded Wright of a student he had once tutored named Peter Parker.

After the girl arrived at her destination, she thanked him and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

Wright suddenly called out to her, then climbed to the passenger side and opened the glove compartment.

As he spoke, he rummaged through the storage box and finally took out a white envelope and handed it to the other person.

Upon opening it, the girl saw what was inside: money.

The money wasn't much; it was all in twenty-dollar bills.

Wright used his calloused thumb and forefinger to pull out five bills and handed them to the girl.

"Take it."

"I can't have it!"

The girl was a little flustered.

"I have plenty more to go."

"You seem to be facing some difficulties. This amount of money may be important to you, even if it's not much."

He grabbed the girl's hand with just the right amount of force, enough to keep her standing still without hurting her hand.

He then stuffed the banknotes into her hand.

"This is a hundred dollars."

"I--"

“It’s alright, kid. Listen, just keep walking down this road. In about half an hour you’ll see a motel. It’s a row of bungalows, and there’s a gas station and a bar next to it. Just follow this road, and you can’t go wrong. But don’t walk on the highway. It’s the middle of the night, and you might run into some crazy people.”

The girl bowed deeply to Wright, moved, and then left, expressing her sincere gratitude.

In a good mood, Wright drove home and suddenly noticed a letter in the mailbox.

Is it an advertising flyer?

Puzzled, he opened his mailbox and found a thick envelope inside.

The author is Peter Parker.

"Peter? It's that child."

To Wright’s surprise, he opened the letter and found a thick stack of US dollars inside.

The bills were all in denominations of one hundred US dollars each.

"Forehead"

He froze in place.

at the same time.

In Queens, New York, the night was dark and all was quiet.

A house stands quietly beside a road.

Most of the house was tightly entwined with wisteria, looking like a lush grape trellis from a distance, with the purple flowers resembling bunches of plump grapes.

The velvety night sky was dotted with stars, each one like a sparkling pearl.

"Crack!"

What followed broke the gentle silence.

Sarah turned the key and entered the room.

She was in a bad mood.

Last night, after saying goodbye to her, Peter left his own universe.

Although it was unavoidable, she was still somewhat depressed.

Although Peter assured her that he could travel through the multiverse at any time in the future.

But after all, they are separated by two universes, so how could it be done at any time?

Her mind was in turmoil, a thousand thoughts fluttering around her like countless butterflies, impossible to shake off.

"Buzz!"

Just then, her phone rang.

Sarah, her thoughts interrupted, picked up her phone and saw that it was her mother calling.

"How are you doing, Sarah? We'll be back soon and give you a surprise."

"Just so-so."

Sarah sat on the sofa, showing absolutely no interest in the surprise her mother had described.

"You seem unhappy, Sarah?"

"I'm okay, it's just... I'm heartbroken, Mom."

Upon hearing her daughter's words, Sarah's mother was so shocked she almost dropped her phone.

"Breakup? When? You got a boyfriend? Oh my god, you didn't even tell us!"

Sarah's mother's loud voice came through the phone.

"How can this kind of thing be controlled?"

Sarah pressed her hand to her forehead. "Believe me, Mom, if you went through what I went through, you would fall for it immediately."

Sarah's mother immediately asked her, "So how did you break up with him? Did he dump you?"

"It's a long story, but I won't be able to see him anytime soon."

Sarah's mother thought for a moment and then comforted her daughter.

“It’s nothing. If you like him enough, time and distance won’t be an obstacle. Sarah, I know you. Girls like you rarely take the initiative to pursue anything. But I still want to tell you that you have to have confidence in yourself and take the initiative.”

Sarah listened to her mother's words without arguing back.

"Although you have your own ideas, maybe you know these things, maybe you don't, but I've noticed that you always have a pessimistic view of everything, which is not a good sign. Don't worry, I've also had dating experience, and I know what it's like. Love and disappointment are like twin brothers, don't you think? If you don't put in a little effort, love will turn into disappointment."

Sarah asked her mother, "Are you trying to persuade me not to give up, Mom?"

"That's it."

Sarah's mother paused for a moment, then changed the subject instead of continuing on that topic.

"Okay, Sarah, to cheer you up after your breakup, I'll reveal the surprise I've prepared for you in advance. We're going to buy you a Toyota. Don't you love owning your own car?"

"Forehead"

Sarah wasn't surprised at all.

“I know that the old Tramy Jackson family on Orchard Road had one. I guess it belonged to his daughter, but she got a scholarship and was the first in their family to go to college, so no one drives it anymore. It’s just sitting on the side of the road every day, covered in pollen, leaves and all sorts of other things.”

Sarah complained to her mother:

"He said he was willing to sell it to me, so it wasn't really a surprise."

Sarah was about to continue speaking when she suddenly heard the doorbell ring.

"Wait, I'll call you later, Mom."

After saying something to her mother, she hung up the phone.

Standing outside the door was a FedEx employee.

The other party said there was a package she needed to sign for.

Who would send themselves a package?

Puzzled, Sarah opened the package and found a car key and a car purchase receipt inside.

A note was attached to it.

"A surprise for you—Peter Parker!"

Upon seeing Peter's handwriting, Sarah covered her mouth in surprise.

Is this a surprise Peter gave himself?!
