The interrogation lasted for hours, and the police used every trick in the book, but they were unable to find any flaws in Lin Mu's perfect defense.

Ultimately, they had to admit that, from a legal process perspective, they could not directly link Lin Mu to any crime.

After completing the lengthy release procedures, Lin Mu walked out of the interrogation room accompanied by his lawyer.

Just as he stepped into the police station lobby, a clear, anxious female voice rang out.

"Lin! Are you alright?"

Gwen Stacy rushed over, her long golden hair flying with her movements, shining brightly under the cold white lights of the police station.

She was wearing a simple white T-shirt and slim-fit jeans, her face full of worry. She ran straight to Lin Mu and looked him over carefully, as if afraid that he had suffered some injustice.

"I'm fine, Gwen. It's just routine, cooperating with the investigation."

Lin Mu gave her a reassuring smile and asked gently, "How did you end up here?"

“I heard you were taken away by the police, which startled me, so I rushed over to check on you.”

Gwen breathed a sigh of relief and naturally reached out to take Lin Mu's arm: "Are all the formalities completed? Can we leave now?"

This scene was witnessed by Sheriff George Stacy, who had just come out of the next room and was rubbing his throbbing temples.

The weariness on Sheriff George's face froze for a moment, then was gradually replaced by another, more complex emotion.

It's the heartbreaking feeling of having your carefully nurtured little cabbage eaten by a pig.

His gaze, like a searchlight, was fixed on his daughter's hand clinging to Lin Mu's arm, and his face darkened visibly.

"Gwen."

Sheriff George's voice was terrifyingly deep, carrying an unquestionable authority: "What are you doing here? And..."

His gaze was sharp as a knife as he turned to Lin Mu: "What's going on here?"

Gwen then realized that her father worked at the police station, and a hint of unease flashed across her face. However, she did not let go of Lin Mu's hand; instead, she instinctively hugged him tighter and raised her chin: "Dad, Lin is my boyfriend."

"Boy friend?"

Sheriff George repeated the word, his brow furrowing into a deep frown.

My daughter is currently in her final year of high school and will be taking the college entrance exam soon, so her studies should be her priority.

Moreover, his years of experience in handling cases had honed his intuition, which told him that this young man named Lin Mu was not as simple and harmless as he appeared on the surface, but rather a dangerous person.

He didn't believe it was a coincidence; the fact that the other party could quickly gain Norman Osborn's extreme trust and generous gifts was itself highly unusual.

·· ···Requesting flowers· ·······

And now, this "extremely unusual" dangerous individual has such a close relationship with his innocent and naive daughter.

George scrutinized Lin Mu from head to toe, his eyes filled with a palpable wariness and scrutiny. He said stiffly, "Mr. Lin, your questioning is temporarily over. You may leave."

He then looked at Gwen, his tone leaving no room for argument: "Gwen, you stay. I have something to ask you. Now, immediately, come to my office."

Facing Sheriff George's almost undisguised hostility, Lin Mu remained calm and even politely returned a smile: "Okay, thank you, Sheriff Stacy. I won't bother you any longer."

He gently patted Gwen's hand, gave her a tender and reassuring look, and whispered, "Don't worry, and don't argue with your father. I'm leaving now, I'll contact you later."

After saying that, he calmly turned around and walked steadily out of the police station lobby under Sheriff George's almost fiery gaze.

Gwen watched Lin Mu's departing figure, then turned back to look at her father, whose face was ashen and who exuded a suffocating aura. She couldn't help but stomp her foot, her tone full of complaint: "Dad! What kind of attitude was that just now! It was so rude!"

..... ... ....

Seeing his daughter completely unaware that she had been "kidnapped," Sheriff George felt a tightness in his chest.

On one side lies a series of bloody crimes that are shrouded in mystery, involve immense pressure, and have far-reaching implications; on the other side is a beloved daughter who may have been swindled away by a shady young man with a complicated background...

He felt a throbbing pain in his temples and a splitting headache.

"Enough talk! Come to my office!"

He finally just sighed heavily, suppressed his turbulent emotions, and commanded in an unquestionable tone.

There may not be enough "suspicion" in this case to justify his detention of Lin Mu.

But in his mind, this young Chinese man who suddenly appeared beside his daughter, shrouded in mystery, had already been thoroughly labeled as "highly suspicious" in a bright red mark.

However, it won't be easy for him to find out any dirt on Lin Mu.

With his spider-sense, Lin Mu can sense any danger or hostility immediately.

The only thing Sheriff George could investigate was what Lin Mu wanted him to see.

Another week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Because he didn't become Spider-Man, Uncle Ben, who played Peter Parker, is still alive and well.

With Osborne's high-paying job, life has improved, which is a kind of happiness.

The plot has deviated from its intended course, but it's not a major issue.

However, when Lin Mu was reading the newspaper today, he saw the headline "Spider-Woman".

His gaze shifted to Cindy Moon and Gwen Stacy: "You two went out to be heroes?"

Gwen Stacy lowered her head: "I'm sorry, Lynn, but that child was in danger..."

“I don’t mean to blame you. Protecting the weak is a virtue, and I support you in doing the right thing, but you also need to learn to protect yourselves.”

Lin Mu calmly said, "There are more and more cameras on the streets now, and satellite cameras in space are also being upgraded. If you keep wandering around like this all day, you'll be discovered sooner or later."

"When the military or other forces come to arrest you, will you cooperate with them to conduct human experiments, or will you fight them?"

"If you want to be heroes, you must be prepared to sacrifice yourselves and those around you at any time. More than seeing you become so-called heroes, I hope you stay safe."

Chapter 52: Peter the Green Goblin

Seeing Lin Mu's meticulous guidance and care, Cindy and Gwen felt warm and deeply moved.

She glanced at Lin Mu and then tackled him to the ground, letting her actions speak for themselves.

Three poles in the sun.

With the afternoon sun shining brightly, Lin Mu, having nothing to do, strolled over to the tennis court to stretch his muscles.

His simple white tracksuit made his figure appear even more upright and refreshing.

Across from the stadium, there are two completely different yet equally dazzling sights.

Gwen Stacy wore a classic white tennis dress, her golden ponytail bouncing lively with her movements, and her blue eyes sparkling with a spirited and indomitable light.

Cindy Moon, on the other hand, was dressed in a black sports vest and shorts, with her black hair tied up high. Her movements exuded the agility of a wildcat and a silent, explosive power.

"Ready, Lin? Two against one, don't blame us for bullying you later."

Gwen chuckled and swung her racket, her tone playfully challenging.

Cindy didn't say much, but lowered her center of gravity slightly, her eyes sharp, and she was fully prepared.

Lin Mu smiled easily, lightly tossing the tennis ball between his fingertips: "Bring it on."

As the match began, Gwen's serve displayed amazing power and a tricky angle, showcasing her exceptional athleticism.

Cindy's movement was as fast as a ghost, covering almost half the court, and her returns were accompanied by strong spin, making them difficult to track.

However, Lin Mu's behavior made the two girls even more alarmed.

He seemed to be just strolling around the court, moving only a small area, but he always seemed to anticipate and appear at the best hitting point in advance. Every return shot seemed plain and unremarkable, but it accurately hit their most uncomfortable spot.

Lin Mu's movements were incredibly efficient, as if he could completely see through their intentions.

"We need to step up our efforts!"

Gwen whispered to Cindy, beginning to hold back her power.

"boom!"

The tennis racket was swung out with a whooshing sound, and the tennis ball shot past like a cannonball, its power enough to break bones and tendons in an ordinary person.

Lin Mu remained calm and composed, returning the ball with a precise backhand.

The three of them moved back and forth at great speed, their figures intertwined. Lin Mu, in particular, seemed to leave two faint afterimages as he moved at high speed, as if two people were present at the same time.

Cindy's gaze became increasingly focused. Her spider-sense was exceptionally sensitive to the trajectory of objects, but Lin Mu's return shots always carried a strange deceptive quality, repeatedly thwarting her proud senses.

After another round of intense rallies, with a crisp "crack," Gwen's racket broke under the strain, bringing the match to an end.

Lin Mu strolled to the net, looked at the two girls in front of him, who were drenched in sweat and slightly unwilling, and smiled: "Your strength is quite good. Gwen, your skills and strength are well combined; Cindy, your speed and instinctive reactions are particularly outstanding."

He then changed the subject: "But there is still a lot of room for improvement in your way of moving around. It is especially inefficient when dealing with complex situations or multiple objectives."

Gwen wiped the sweat from her brow with a towel and asked curiously, "Movement method? Do you need special footwork to play tennis?"

"It's not just tennis."

Lin Mu shook his head: "In any situation that requires extreme speed and dodging, a set of superb movement techniques is crucial."

"It can give you the upper hand in battle, and even turn the tide in a desperate situation."

Cindy's intuition told her that what Lin Mu was about to say was anything but simple, and she subconsciously focused her attention: "You have a way?"

Lin Mu glanced at the two of them, his smile fading as his expression turned serious: "Your control over your own power has reached a high level. Next, I will teach you the 'Six Illusions of Phoenix Dance'."

"This is a top-notch movement technique. When mastered to perfection, the body moves like a phoenix soaring through the sky, making it difficult to catch. Furthermore, it can create multiple afterimages while moving at high speed, confusing the enemy and making its whereabouts unpredictable."

"Illusory afterimage?"

Gwen's eyes widened in surprise: "Just like you did just now?"

"In theory, when speed and control of the body reach their limits, visual persistence can create afterimages."

Cindy tried to explain it scientifically, but her eyes were still filled with disbelief.

"Theory is theory, and practice is practice."

Lin Mu didn't say much: "Want to learn?"

The answer is self-evident.

Afterwards, Lin Mu took them to a private training room in the club.

He first gave a complete demonstration of the basic footwork of "Phoenix Dance Six Illusions".

His figure moved swiftly and gracefully through the room, seemingly real yet illusory. At his fastest, he could leave seven lingering afterimages in the air at the same time, like a dream.

Gwen was mesmerized and exclaimed, "Amazing!"

Cindy focused intently, trying to analyze: "This footwork... contains a unique way of generating power and ultimate control over the body."

Lin Mu began to break down the movements, explaining in detail the techniques for generating power, breathing rhythm, and coordination with one's own senses.

"Remember, the key lies in the instantaneous transformation between the virtual and the real, and the sudden burst of power centered on the waist and hips."

"Don't use brute force, use skillful force, guide your body with your mind, and perceive the most subtle changes in the airflow..."

Gwen struggled a little with the learning.

She possesses exceptional physical abilities, emphasizing strength and agility, and is somewhat slow to grasp the nuances of this technique, which embodies Eastern philosophy and requires precise control.

But she worked extremely hard, imitating and adjusting repeatedly.

Cindy, on the other hand, demonstrated an amazing talent for learning.

She has a photographic memory, and coupled with the microscopic perception of herself and her environment granted by her spider sense, she is often the quickest to grasp the subtle nuances in Lin's demonstrations that can only be understood intuitively.

Cindy's movements quickly became standard, and she could even occasionally create a faint afterimage. Although it was fleeting, it already earned Lin Mu's secret praise.

“Cindy, your sensory abilities are an excellent talent for learning this movement technique. Try to integrate them into your footwork, turning passive perception into active ‘prediction’ of everything around the next landing point.”

Lin Mu gave her a few pointers.

Then he said to Gwen, "Gwen, your advantage lies in your explosive power. You can put aside the pursuit of afterimages for now and focus on improving your speed and power generation techniques to find your own rhythm."

When teaching others, one cannot generalize; one must find their individual strengths and weaknesses, and teach them according to their aptitude, maximizing their strengths and minimizing their weaknesses.

Lin Mu possesses numerous martial arts skills, and "Phoenix Dance Six Illusions" is currently the most suitable choice for them to quickly improve their strength.

In addition, Lin Mu also taught them the "Heavenly Frost Fist," which covers footwork, internal energy cultivation methods, and fist techniques.

Time flew by as I focused on my practice.

With the cooldown period for the Gate of All Heavens approaching, Lin Mu would occasionally visit Osborn Industries to keep abreast of the progress of the human enhancement drug and to propose key improvement plans from time to time.

Exceptional comprehension is not only reflected in martial arts.
