Chapter 88
Silton returned home.

Although I have witnessed a lot of disputes between Polina and Iron Man intermittently, it has nothing to do with me after all.

What really affected me and most New Yorkers were the results of their disputes—the Sokovia bank robbery and the bombing of the Metropolitan Opera House in New York.

The former resulted in the death of a bank employee, while the latter killed as many as [-] spectators.

Thinking of the explosion at the Metropolitan Opera House, Silton felt grateful to Eddie and Venom, after all, they protected May's safety.

He took out the key and opened the door, and saw Mei leaning on the sofa, watching TV.

Her expression was dull, her eyes were fixed, as if she was thinking about something, she was staring at the TV screen in a daze.

Just as Silton was about to ask about Aunt May's recent affairs, he felt itchy at his feet, and it was the puppy Bullock who rubbed against him.

After a few days, the little guy has grown up a lot and looks more energetic.

When communicating with Eddie before, I learned about the past deeds of this little guy——

After helping it drain the venom by itself, it ran to the place where it got off from Wood's car at night, found another infected mouse, and regained the venom.

Later in Barney's car, Bullock passes the poison to Eddie.

In addition to giving the host superpowers in terms of combat effectiveness, venom is also like a fluid of consciousness, flowing between different creatures.

Therefore, Eddie also obtained Bullock's memory to some extent, and relayed Bullock's memory to Silton, which gave Silton a more comprehensive understanding of Bullock's thoughts—

For example, at night, when both he and Mei are asleep, he likes to sleep in Mei's cotton slippers;

For example, it prefers fried pork ribs to dog food;
For example, if Silton is too busy with homework or other things to play with him for a long time, he will be very sad.

Silton picked up Bullock, teased it, and came to Aunt May's side.

"Is Miss Polina all right?" May asked.

Although Mei didn't know the deeper inside story, she knew that Silton was going to accompany Polina.

At that time, Polina called May, a patient and good friend, and hoped that Silton and Jenny would take care of her. Considering that she didn't have to go to school recently, May agreed.

"It's good. She was transferred to another hospital recently, so we don't need to take care of her." Silton said.

"Yeah." May nodded, "The vicinity of Elmhurst Hospital is not peaceful either. A residential building opposite seems to be on fire this morning. It might be a good thing to transfer to another hospital."

The two were silent for a while, Mei was still thinking, and Silton didn't talk much.

A boring advertisement for cheese hearts and chocolates was playing on the TV, and Brock, as if feeling some kind of atmosphere, lay quietly in Silton's arms without moving.

"Honey," May broke the silence, "Reporter Eddie...

What kind of person is he? "

Mei thought, sometimes he is like her guardian, sometimes like a schizophrenic pervert, and sometimes like a grandstanding clown, for example at this time——

The picture on the TV is a rebroadcast of the whole process of the suicide of the big reporter Eddie.

Before the ad, Eddie jumps off a building, leaving suspense; after the ad, the re-connected scene shows Eddie slowly falling slowly with a black parachute on his back.

Who would commit suicide by jumping off a building with a parachute if not a grandstanding clown?

Silton wanted to say a few good words for Eddie, but after thinking about it, forget it.

Mei's affairs are left to her own choice, and she may be superfluous if she says more.

Back in his bedroom, put Bullock by the desk, and Silton picked up the book and studied.

The school was closed because of the bombing, but the classes didn't stop.

Mr. Harrington asked every student to go home, study the content of the second half of the book by himself, and complete the homework after class. When the school resumes, he will check the homework and take the exam.

The knowledge of high school physics is not difficult for Silton, and after Banner's guidance, Silton has even reached the level of a graduate student.

But homework still needs to be done, and a lot of time was wasted with Polina, and Silton had a hunch that he and Jenny should be involved in the task of tracking down the escaped Sokovian.

While thinking wildly and doing homework, a system prompt sounded in my brain:
"Ding-dong-"

[Find out the "enemy" who wants to hurt Polina. The task is complete! 】

[Reward: 90% treasure chest opening rate! 】

This task is completed?
Silton originally thought that the mission would not be over until he caught the short Sokovian man.

However, I think the real meaning of the task statement should be to help Polina distinguish the real enemy.

Polina always thought that her enemies were fanatical fans of Iron Man, and it was this group of people who killed her daughter; but she didn't expect that her real enemies were a group of Sokovians who wanted to intensify the conflict.

When I left the hospital, I saw that Polina's mental state was not right. I think I have completely figured it out and accepted it now, so the task is completed.

Before completing the quest of dating Eddie and Aunt May, there was 10% of the completion of the treasure chest, plus the current 90%, it is exactly 100%, and a treasure chest can be opened.

Silton closed his eyes slightly, looking inside the system.

A golden treasure chest appeared in the field of vision, which was the reward for completing this mission, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart - "It's great to have a system!"

Dong Nian opened the treasure chest, and three cards appeared in front of him.

The first card is "Old Friend" [Taunting], I remember that I had this skill at the very beginning, but I didn't choose it every time.

The second card says [Speed ​​Boots], after choosing this card, you will get a pair of shoes.

The shoes are "abstract items" like the red bow tie [sonic controller], and their appearance will not be perceived by the real world, but they will give Silton some superpowers——

[Speed ​​Boots: Increase the user's movement speed by 10 times! 】

This is the introduction of 【Boots of Speed】.

The third card is called [Human Skin Mask], which can change the user's appearance.

Silton wanted to choose the second card, because although he was invincible in defense, his mobility was poor.

Increase the movement speed by 10 times. As time goes by and other tasks are completed, the increase rate of [Speed ​​Boots] should increase.

In comparison, the [taunt] of the first card is useful, but limited.

Now that I have Ba La La Little Devil Eye, she has plenty of ways to irritate opponents, maybe not as strong as 【Taunt】, but she is not weak either.

Silton thought about it, and recalled the pain of his arm being pinched and swollen by Jenny...
