He's Spider-Man in Marvel, but he insists I'm Superman.

Thump... Bang!

George, standing outside the door, suddenly heard several muffled thuds and asked anxiously, "Gwen, what's wrong?"

He had already taken a few steps back, as if he was ready to break down the door and barge in if he didn't hear Gwen's reply.

"Uh... Father, I'm fine. I just accidentally fell off the bed!"

Fortunately, Gwen responded promptly. Although her voice sounded tense and uneasy, it seemed there was nothing seriously wrong.

"How are you? Are you alright? Do you need me to come in and help?"

George's tense expression subsided somewhat, and he pressed his ear against the door, listening carefully to the sounds inside.

"Um...no...no need, I can handle it myself!"

Although Gwen's tone was somewhat incoherent, it was still relatively normal and did not sound like she was being threatened.

Moreover, George, as the police chief, did not sense anything unusual in the room, and was finally completely relieved.

"Alright then, Gwen, remember to come downstairs as soon as possible; your mother has already prepared dinner!"

After he finished speaking, George waited at the door for a while, and only after hearing Gwen's response did he slowly walk downstairs.

"Phew, that was close..."

Gwen finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her father's clear footsteps gradually fade into the distance and he had already gone downstairs.

"Wait, when did my hearing become so good?"

Then, she suddenly realized that her hearing seemed to have become extremely sharp, and she could even hear her father's light footsteps outside the door, which was definitely not normal.

"My body? What on earth happened?"

I recalled how I was startled awake, and with just a little effort, I suddenly leaped several meters into the air and crashed into the ceiling.

And the sudden enhancement of her senses made Gwen realize that her body must have undergone some unknown change!

She couldn't help but sit on the bed, raise her hands, and examine them closely.

Her fair palms and backs of hands, and slender fingers, looked perfectly suited for learning to play the piano; she seemed no different from before.

"Wait, no, what happened to the bite wound I got earlier?"

Suddenly, Gwen remembered that earlier that day in the Osborne Building, she had been bitten on the back of her hand by some unknown creature.

A clear scar remained on the back of my hand until I got home in the afternoon.

But now, no matter how she looks at it, the skin on the back of her hand is completely intact, as if it had never been bitten.

She clenched her fist suddenly, and a tremendous force surged from her hand. The speed and strength of her clenching were so great that the air itself was compressed into a crisp popping sound.

"Could it be that being bitten by an unknown mutated creature caused a genetic mutation, resulting in some unknown change in my body?"

Gwen forced herself to calm down and thought carefully, and then a guess came to mind.

"Yes, that must be it!"

Gwen looked at her hands, feeling the immense power within her body, her eyes resolute.

"However, the fusion of unknown genes with human genes, resulting in gene mutations, is inherently difficult to predict."

"Although my physical condition seems to be better than before, I must not let my guard down and must have a comprehensive check-up as soon as possible!"

As a top student at Midtown Science High School and also Professor Connors' intern, she knew very well that genetic mutations in humans were not a good thing.

Even now, her body shows no abnormalities; on the contrary, it has made her stronger.

But who knows, things might suddenly take a turn for the worse, and her body might undergo some kind of undesirable mutation.

I imagine that in some science fiction movies, being bitten by an unknown creature might lead to a transformation into that creature.

Gwen couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.

"No, even if I die, I will never become a hairy monster!"

Gwen couldn't accept that she had become some kind of strange monster.

But now that it has happened, she must have a full medical check-up as soon as possible tomorrow.

……

Soon after, Gwen finally managed to temporarily accept the fact that her body had mutated.

Remembering that her parents were still waiting for her downstairs for dinner, she cautiously approached the door.

Click!

The doorknob made a creaking sound as it was overwhelmed, leaving several fingerprints on it.

"I tried my best to control myself, but I still..."

Gwen stared at the clear fingerprints on the metal doorknob, realizing for the first time just how powerful her mutated body truly was.

Gwen carefully finished dinner with her parents, then hurriedly returned to her room, afraid that her parents would notice her unusual behavior.

But she didn't realize that this was a very strange behavior in the eyes of her parents, who knew her very well.

"Why is this girl eating so fast today?"

Her mother watched her retreating figure, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"I think our daughter might be in love!"

George stared at Gwen's retreating figure as she disappeared down the stairs, a glint of wisdom flashing in his eyes.

……

As night fell, Gwen tossed and turned in her bed, fearing that something bad might suddenly happen to her body.

Meanwhile, Peter left Tony's villa in the evening and flew home at top speed.

After all, he was still a student and couldn't be a bad kid who stayed out all night.

Although, after having dinner with Uncle Ben and Aunt May at home, he went back to his room and flew out the window to return to Tony's villa.

But in Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei's eyes, he was still a good kid who came home on time and went to bed early and got up early!

Little did they know that Peter was at that moment working on clearing out and expanding Tony’s underground laboratory.

He moved all the space-consuming facilities out of the basement.

Then, in the empty basement, using an incredibly hot and dazzling thermal vision, they cut through all the walls, successfully creating a huge and unobstructed underground laboratory.

Although Peter was very efficient, he was busy until the early hours of the morning before flying back home, lying in bed, and falling into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, Tony boarded a private plane bound for New York.

Because he had promised someone that he would be at their doorstep on time the next morning.

The night passed quickly, and the sun, brimming with vitality, gradually rose.

Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei were already up and busy early in the morning.

Uncle Ben was tidying up the yard and warehouse, while Aunt May was preparing a sumptuous breakfast for the family.

Peter also got up exceptionally early today.

"Peter? Why didn't you sleep in a little longer today? There's still plenty of time before school starts!"

Aunt May spoke gently as she watched Peter descend the stairs, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Normally, Peter would get up right on time, seemingly never afraid of being late for school.

"Aunt Mei, I have something to tell you all later when I'm done with my work!"

Peter sat at the dining table and spoke with a very serious expression.

……

Soon after, Uncle Ben finished his work, opened the door, and went into the room.

"Mei, you don't know, there was this annoying guy driving a luxury sports car, just driving around on the road, I don't know what he was doing?"

As soon as Uncle Ben entered the door, he began telling Aunt Mei about the interesting things that had just happened to him.

However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Peter and May were sitting very formally at the dining table, as if they were waiting for him to return.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Ben, Peter has something to tell us, but he insists on waiting until you get back!"

Aunt Mei explained the current situation to Ben.

"Oh? Peter, did you get into trouble at school? Don't be afraid. No matter what you've done wrong, face it bravely and never run away..."

Uncle Ben sat opposite Peter and spoke to him gently and solemnly.

"Where's Tony? Is he lost?"

"Forget it, let's not wait for him, let's just say it directly!"

Peter couldn't help but blame Tony, that unreliable guy, in his heart, and then spoke solemnly to the two old men.

"Uncle Ben, Aunt May, actually... we're billionaires now!"
