Marvel: Awakening the Universe

His intuition told him that Hawke was a subway rookie.

The so-called subway rookies refer to those passengers who do not take the subway very often and do not understand the dangers of subway cars and the unpredictable human heart.

These passengers may not be very wealthy, but they are definitely the easiest prey, so they are defined as subway rookies by their peers in the stealing industry.

soon.

Xiao Hei pretended to reach out to adjust his earphones, shook his head, and hummed a song to himself as he came behind Hawke.

next second.

The moment Xiao Hei put down his right hand which was adjusting the headset, he instantly took out a folding knife and intended to slash at the shoulder bag on Hawk's back.

at this time.

Hawke, who was facing away from Xiao Hei, suddenly seemed to lose his balance, stumbled, and took a few steps back.

Xiao Hei, who was standing behind Hawk and about to take action, did not anticipate this scene. The handle of the folding knife that he had just taken out and had not yet adjusted was directly turned in the direction by Hawk's collision. With a "pop", it directly pierced Xiao Hei's wrist.

"what!"

Xiao Hei suddenly let out a scream, his eyes wide open, and he looked at the folding knife that was stuck in his wrist with a gasp.

Blood dripped from the wound on his wrist onto the floor of the carriage with a "pa, pa" sound.

The people around the carriage were startled by Xiao Hei's scream, and then they quickly looked away after seeing Xiao Hei's skin color with a hole in his wrist.

The subway just stopped at the station.

The passengers around all stood up and left the car at the same time.

No one exclaimed.

No one cared, and no one went up to ask Xiao Hei if he needed medical assistance or anything.

Hawke also followed the crowd out of the car.

From beginning to end, he didn't turn his head to look at Xiao Hei.

After walking out of the car, Hawke felt the one, two or three resentful glances cast at his back from behind, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

He was kind enough.

If this wasn't a subway, but some remote area or an alley with few cameras, he would have been able to scatter the ashes of the little black man who tried to steal his ashes.

Didn’t you see that he was wearing all these cheap goods, which together cost no more than fifty dollars?

He is so poor, why the hell does he come to steal?

Is there any royal law?

Are there any laws?

and also……

"Gwen?"

Walking out of the subway station, Hawke, who had been feeling confused and upset about how he almost encountered a pickpocket on the subway, saw Gwen standing not far away, just downstairs of the Osborn Bio-Industrial Building, seemingly waiting for someone.

Gwen was looking around at the door when her eyes suddenly caught sight of Hawke across the street. Her eyes immediately lit up and she raised her right hand to Hawke, waving quickly.

Are you waiting for me?

Hawke was slightly stunned, then took advantage of a gap in traffic to quickly cross the road.

The Battle of New York took place half a month ago. Now, half a month has passed, and there is no trace of the alien invasion in Manhattan.

That's the beauty of money.

The battle in New York ended in the morning, and repair work on the damaged buildings in Manhattan, especially Wall Street, began at noon.

At that time, the exterior wall of the Osborne Bio-Industrial Building also suffered severe damage.

But at the moment, there is no sign that Osborn's industrial building was penetrated by the Chitauri during the Battle of New York.

Hawke looked up at the Osborn Biotech Building, which was as tall as the Stark Industries Building five blocks away, then looked back at Gwen, who seemed to be waiting for him at the door.

"Are you waiting for me?"

"of course."

Unlike her school attire, Gwen wore a long ponytail today and a white lab coat, the standard for researchers. She smiled and said, "How can I find out your secret if I'm not waiting for you here?"

Hawke heard this and shook his head in confusion.

"I have no secrets."

"No, you do. I'll find it."

Gwen said this with a serious face, and then her serious little face regained its smile and said to Hawke, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Mrs. Snow called me this morning and forgot you didn't have a cell phone and you didn't have an Osborn access card. She was worried that you couldn't even get through the gate of Osborn, so she called me and asked me to take you in to find that..."

Gwen paused and looked at Hawke. "By the way, what's the name of the person you're looking for?"

"Max Dillon!"

Hawke revealed the name of the future super villain Electro, now a super little-known engineer.

Gwen's expression was stunned.

"Yes, that's him. Come on, I'll take you to the Bio-Electrical Engineering Department."

"it is good."

Hawke didn't refuse.

Gwen then put her hands in her pockets, shook her ponytail, turned around gracefully, and led Hawke to the card swiping area. After entering, she said a few words to the security guard beside her.

The security guard looked at Hawke in the direction of Gwen's finger, then nodded and manually opened the gate.

Gwen thanked the security guard after Hawke came in.

Soon.

Gwen led Hawke to the Bio-Electrical Engineering Department on the first floor of the annex building with ease.

……

Chapter 22 The bottom line is bound to be broken

"Hawk, take a look at the data."

"One hundred and eight."

"Hawk, I need to go to the SL lab. Please collect the information on my desk for me."

"no problem."

"Huo..."

Today is Hawke's twentieth day working as a summer intern at Osborne Bio-Industries.

But he hadn't found the opportunity to go to Dr. Connors' laboratory yet.

Because in the past twenty days, let alone going to Dr. Connors' laboratory, he hasn't even left the door of the Electrical Engineering Department.

I am busy from the moment I get to get off work until the moment I leave. I am either helping people look at data or on my way to help people look at data.

And like now, helping people tidy up the documents on the desk.

Hawke watched the engineer stand up and leave in a hurry, then walked towards the engineer's desk.

Although he had been in Osborn for twenty days and had not yet had the opportunity to go to Dr. Connors' laboratory, he was not in a hurry.

On the one hand, good food is never too late.

On the other hand, it’s because…

It's busy here, but the salary is really high.

The weekly salary is $800, and there is a cafeteria on the 18th floor with buffets for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Although Hawke had the idea of ​​robbing a bank last month, he didn't put it into action.

The most important thing.

Although the bottom line is meant to be broken, before Hawke broke it, he still wanted to avoid breaking it in advance if possible.

Because he is afraid.

Hawke didn't know what he would become after breaking his bottom line.

Well known.

Time travelers have always been creatures with particularly flexible moral bottom lines, and they are inherently indifferent to everything and everyone.

Hawke is no exception.

This is also the reason why he never socializes, because sometimes when he looks at others, he always feels like he is looking at an NPC.

How should I put it? I feel like everyone else is drunk but I am the only one sober.

The reason why he is still willing to continue to follow the rules after awakening his microcosm is actually very simple.

The education he received in his previous life told him that to be a good person, I don’t expect you to be a good person, but don’t be a bad person.

This is why Hawke still lives a relatively poor life after awakening his microcosm.

If it were any other time traveler, he would probably awaken his microcosm on the first day, and announce to the world on the second day that those who obey me will prosper, and those who defy me will perish.

of course.

The most important point may be that he is kind!

pity……

Hawke felt that this bottom line would have to be broken soon, no matter how reluctant he was.

But no matter what, before that, he was still willing to abide by the bottom line.

Hawke, who had been working for ten days and was familiar with the rhythm of the Bio-Electrical Engineering Department, quickly sorted out the scattered documents on the engineer's desk, then carried the documents to the filing cabinet and put them away in order.

Just then, the office phone rang.

"Huo..."

"I'll pick it up."

Hawke answered in advance, walked over and picked up the phone: "Electrical Engineering Department."

"Hey, Hawke?" A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

Hawke raised an eyebrow, "Gwen?"

He hadn't seen Gwen since she brought him to the Bio-Electrical Engineering Department to report ten days ago.

After all, he is busy.

Gwen is busier.

Even though Hawke is now in the Department of Bioelectrical Engineering, he has heard that Dr. Connors has been doing experiments like a madman these days.

The little white mouse didn't even press it, it just pressed the box.

exaggerate.

Gwen hummed on the other end of the phone.

"It's me. By the way, our lab just had an unstable voltage. Dr. Connors asked you to send someone over to take a look."

"Okay, right away."

Hawke hung up the phone and told the head of engineering department about the incident.

The fifty-year-old, completely bald, and seemingly undemanding supervisor surveyed the empty office. "Every lab is reporting unstable voltage today. I think it's the resistor again. We just replaced it yesterday... Forget it, you, take Hawke with you to Dr. Connors' lab and help them get a new resistor."

Hawke followed his supervisor's gaze and looked at the future Electro who was not far away. He had a silly expression and dark skin, and he looked like an honest man.

Yes.

Honest person.

Max Dillon is really an honest man, not at all like other black people who are sneaky and cunning.

Hawke had truly seen it during those twenty days, and if the Bio-Electrical Engineering Department had an award for a hard-working worker, Max Dillon was the undisputed winner.

If Max Dillon had a little political acumen, he wouldn't just work blindly. As a result, his own supervisor doesn't even remember his name.
