Then Skye sent a message: [I covered for you, and told Gwen and the others you were out having fun. Remember to reward me!]

“I think…” Cindy saw him checking the messages and guessed what was going on. “You should go now, right?”

"If you want me to stay overnight, I won't object."

After making a joke, Ye Li added, "By the way, you were a bit impulsive today and you're probably going to skip class. But I have some connections at the school, so you don't need to worry about losing credits."

"Hmm... Remember to think of me." Cindy didn't care about school; she only thought about Ye Li.

"I will, my dear Cindy~"

Ye Li bid farewell to Cindy, saying, "If you'd like to join the Ghost Spider Club anytime, feel free to contact me. I'm leaving now."

"I will consider."

Cindy peeked out from behind the door.

"You must remember what I said, and be careful of Moron and his successors!"

"Got it~"

……

The next day.

Ghost Spider Club.

"Wow, brother, you had so much fun yesterday! You suddenly ran off to play and were gone for most of the day."

Jessica looked at Ye Li suspiciously, "I heard from someone at school that you were chased by three girls?"

Gwen winked at Ye Li and chimed in with a smile, "Some people say it's thirty~"

Gwen is still the best~

Ye Li knew perfectly well that she was saying this on purpose to help him out of a tight spot. "Look, Jessica, the rumors are getting more and more outrageous. Rumors can't be believed."

"I don't care about you."

Seeing Gwen's lack of enthusiasm, Jessica stopped worrying about it and instead said, "Li, you said the gift for Ghost Spider is ready. Can we contact Ghost Spider now?"

Ye Li suppressed a laugh and glanced at Gwen without realizing it. "Of course, you can inform her. I'll wait here."

Ye Li has already brought over a series of improved spider silk launching devices that Tony had prepared.

We've already met Gwen... oh no, Ghost Spider.

Chapter Thirty-Three: Landlord Game! A Rampage! Super Spider-Sense!

[Agent Morst, after so much investigation, these are the only obvious conclusions you've reached. I doubt your abilities.]

[Hill, don't talk to me like that!]

Barbara said angrily into the communicator.

Oh my god! Do you know what it feels like to be relentlessly struck by lightning?

No! You don't know!

I feel like I'm about to explode with anger!

Hill: [So, according to you, Skye has awakened a superpower—the ability to control lightning?]

Barbara: [Very likely!]

Let's put this matter aside for now.

The Lizardmen have reappeared at Midtown High School.

You are one of the closest agents. If it's convenient, go and gather some information.

Barbara: [I'm not available! I'm already disguised and at the club entrance!]

Well then, I wish you success in your investigation.

Hill, on the other end, didn't press the matter and hung up the call.

S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't devote too much energy to minor incidents like the Lizard Man that occur within New York City.

"Alright, this time I'll infiltrate the club and I'm sure I can find something out."

Barbara took out a small sliding mirror to check her appearance.

After deciding on a look that resembled a student, I encouraged myself with the words, "Go for it, Barbara!"

...

"Hi~ Is anyone there?"

I heard a soft female voice coming from outside the club.

Little Ned's eyes lit up, and he scurried to the door, opened it, and poked his round head out to look.

He saw a young woman looking at him with a smile.

The young woman was dressed in trendy sportswear, with her long blonde hair tied into pigtails at the back of her head, and a white baseball cap worn at an angle on her head, giving her a very youthful and beautiful look.

"Oh, hello, beautiful lady!"

Ned quickly opened the door wide and said solicitously, "Of course there are people here. May I ask what brings you here? Are you here to join the club?"

Barbara wasn't in a hurry to reveal her purpose; instead, she asked him, "Is Jessica Ye at the club?"

"Are you a fan of the female knight?"

Ned scratched his face, embarrassed, and said, "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. Corey Sutter Skye at the club?"

"They are here."

Ned quickly pointed inside, afraid the new beauty would run away, "Look, it's right there!"

Barbara's gaze followed his pointing finger and looked inside—

Ye Li slammed two playing cards on the table: "A pair of 2s!"

Skye looked at the good hand in her hand, her handsome eyebrows furrowing slightly. "I can't play..."

That shouldn't be the case. With her hacker-level computing power, how come she hasn't won a single hand of cards with Li?

Ye Li, on the other hand, was smiling very happily.

The Super Spider Sensor works so well! I win every game of cards. I should go to Las Vegas or some other gambling city to try my luck sometime.

"airplane!"

"Shunzi!"

"Wang Bang!"

Under Ye Li's relentless attacks, the poor "peasants" Skye and Mary Jane were quickly routed by the wicked "landlord" and lost another round.

"hateful!"

Skye looked at the few cards she had played in her hand and felt her pride had been hurt...

She discussed with Mary Jane, "Jane, we can't let Li become the landlord next round! Otherwise, we'll both lose!"

Hmm... If you can't beat them, join them. If you're with Ye Li, at least you can lie down comfortably for a while.

As Ye Li quickly arranged the cards, he pointed to his face and said, "Come on, a bet is a bet."

Mary Jane smiled gently.

He stretched his neck and gently kissed Ye Li's face.

She and Ye Li did not have that kind of ambiguous relationship.

But in the United States, this can be considered a polite gesture and not a big deal.

It only adds a little fun to the game, and neither side cares.

But when it was Skye's turn, she was about to kiss Ye Li on the other side of her cheek, but Ye Li pointed to her own mouth and said, "Kiss here, Skye."

“Huh? Why?” Skye paused.

Ye Li blinked. "Because you are special."

"Ha, Gwen and Jessica just left, and you dare to be so arrogant~"

Although Skye said that, she was still very happy and leaned in to give Ye Li a light kiss on the lips.

Ned, watching from the side, was incredibly envious, and kept eating lemons...

He also wants to play this kind of game.

Unfortunately, nobody wanted to play with him. ⑧

Peter? ⑨

Oh, he couldn't imagine that scene...③

...By the way, where did Peter go? He's disappeared without a trace, just like Harry. ⑨

I saw in the news that a lizardman appeared at the school. Hopefully, he's not there. ⑥
