"Mia, Mia... happy birthday!"

Catherine held the hands of her little friends, and Gwen, who had just joined the small circle, surrounded Mia with a few very seductive girls, singing birthday songs in circles. This devil gang is located in New York. The headquarters has been decked out, filled with streamers and balloons, like it's a holiday.

This is an internal banquet, except for the members of the Devil Gang stationed in New York, almost no one else participated. Mia's cold personality is destined to not have many friends in school. Gwen is her best friend and best friend up,

But even so, the gathering of dozens of people also created a lively atmosphere. The welfare of the Devil Gang is very good. After monopolizing nearly one-third of the arms trade in South America, its form is even better. Like a strictly forbidden joint-stock company, these core members in New York are not short of money at all, so the gifts they gave Mia were all very extravagant things.

Plus presents from Gotham and elsewhere piled up like a pair of hills in the middle of the living room.

Lewis thoughtfully prepared some fruit wine for the young people. Right now they were having fun, and the noise almost lifted the entire roof.

Young girls are always easy to befriend, and in less than 10 minutes, Gwen has successfully joined Catherine's "little devil gang", and they have the pure hilarity of their happiness, and the adults have their own fun.

"Come on, let's drink to Sergey's recovery and the birthday of little princess Mia!"

In the house next to the living room, Saber raised his glass, and beside him, Robin, Lewis, Cooper, and Sergey raised their glasses at the same time, and the glasses containing clear vodka collided together, creating a strong aroma , there are several foods, the best cigars and treats on the table in front of you, and the atmosphere here is a little deeper.

"Speaking of which, Sergey, how do you feel now? There are demons living in your body, do you breathe fire from your mouth while you sleep? I almost burned down my house a few days ago, and it feels... so fucking."

Lewis shook his head, picked up the cigar, moved his fingers, and a dark green flame appeared on the top of the cigar. Obviously, this was his ability after contracting the devil. Faced with his complaints, Sergey shrugged,

"It's not that the mouth breathes fire... The most troublesome thing is that from time to time, there will be some urges in my heart to tear off those who don't like people in front of me, but I can still control it. I heard that other children have the same problem. They are now It's all about you, right?"

Sergey looked at Robin, who nodded,

"Will is the key."

He pointed to his head, and said meaningfully, "You can try yoga and meditation, don't give it a chance to control you, being able to contract a demon shows that your willpower itself is strong, just a little bit of control, Anyway, in my opinion, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and it is a good thing.”

"Yeah, I would love to see my daughter grow up with my own eyes, even if it means falling into hell, but...it would be great if Kevin could be here, he should have a chance."

Sergey drank the wine in one breath, the red light in his eyes flashed, his anger surged, and he slammed his fist on the table, "Damn Constantine! I don't know why that bastard ran, and we don't want his life." ! If you catch him this time, you will break his leg!"

"Hey, you should listen to me on the spot, break the mouse's leg, and see how he runs!"

Cooper lost a finger, but now it has grown back, playing with the cigar in his hand with a cold expression, his eyes have turned into snake-like vertical pupils, and there is a lingering irritability in them, "But That guy is well hidden in New York, and we've sent all our men out, and we haven't heard from him at all."

"Regarding this matter…"

Saber's fingers were dancing on the wine glass, and he closed his eyes slightly, "I already know about Chinatown, and I will deal with it myself after Mia's birthday party is over. Constantine's problem is more complicated. , I probably heard some from other people."

He opened his eyes, looked at the people around him, and said in a deep voice,

"This time I come here, I want to say another thing. Regarding the people left behind by the devil gang in New York, I want to change a batch. After Constantine comes back, I want to put the people who can contract the devil here. Here The situation in New York is more complicated, and ordinary people are useless here...I decided to hand it over to Sergey, but New York has a lot of power, and I actually don’t need you to make any achievements here.”

Saibo pondered for a moment, and thought of a suitable adjective,

"This is going to be a sentry, understand? Let's not lose sight of the situation. I don't need you to take the initiative to get into those bad things."

This statement made everyone else stunned. After a while, Cooper asked tentatively,

"Boss, is something going to happen?"

Saber took a sip of his wine,

"It's not about to happen... It has already happened. The world is going to be chaotic. Ordinary people may not feel it, but it is indeed going to change. Think about the New York Sanctuary War before. If it was the previous era, How can there be such a situation? Before we have had time to adapt, we turned our heads and were already in it."

There was a gleam in his eyes,

"But since I'm already in it, I want to find a way to protect myself, and other things can be done later..."

"In short, you don't have to worry about Constantine's affairs, I'll take care of it! Now, let's enjoy a relaxing and happy moment, then lift up our spirits and start on the road again."

He lifts his filled glass over his head,

"Cheers, guys!"

"cheers!"

The core members of the Devil Gang once again gulped down the wine, but when Saibo put the glass to his mouth, a familiar figure came into his eyes, it was a man who had almost been left behind by him. people, and a memory from a long time ago.

But soon, Saibo frowned, "Why does it feel... not quite right."

Weary Peter Parker walked into the magnificently decorated hall under the guidance of the waiter, and saw Gwen, his girlfriend, who was having fun with those glamorous girls from a distance.

In fact, as a recognized nerd, it was indeed something that amazed the entire Midtown High School for him to be favored by Gwen. Even Parker himself felt that this was unreal, because Gwen had more What a better choice... But that was in the past, and now Parker doesn't take it too seriously.

Because he's different, he's changed, he's still the same nerd with the round eyes, the blond hair, the baggy casual clothes, but he's different, even if he doesn't I'm not used to myself now.

"Hi Gwen, sorry I'm late."

Pak cheered up, smiled and said to Gwen and the other girls, "Professor Connors has strict requirements on experiments, so I had to help him adjust all the instruments..."

He scratched his head foolishly, turned his gaze to Mia, as if he had suddenly realized, took out a palm-sized gift box from behind, and handed it out with both hands.

"I almost forgot this..."

Parker said to Mia in a deliberately deep voice, "You know, my family is not in a good position, so I can't give you very expensive things, but... I can give you what you need most !"

This sounded wrong, and Catherine frowned, but after Mia curiously opened the palm-sized gift box, what appeared in her hand was a manuscript with neat notes, on the cover Written in a very fine lace script,

"To my friendliest friend: Mia, from your loyal friend Peter Parker, this is the best gift I can give you."

When she opened the notebook, Mia's expression changed from surprise to emotion,

"This is…"

"Professor Conners' biological experiment notes on "biological cell recovery", I know you admire him very much, but I can't get you the original copy that he regards as a treasure, so I can only copy a copy by hand."

Parker scratched his head, pushed his glasses, and showed a gentle smile,

"I still remember you saying that it was something very important to you."

"Thank you, Parker!"

Mia stepped forward and gave Parker a hug. It was just a ceremonial hug, which represented her gratitude. She looked at the note in her hand, which she once regarded as the only way to save her comatose father,

"Although I don't need it anymore, but... Parker, this is definitely the best gift I received today."

"Hey, you nerd, you have a way!"

Catherine is not an idiot. When she saw the name of the manuscript, she knew the reason why Mia was moved. The previous misunderstanding of Parker disappeared. She stepped forward carelessly, and was about to pat Parker. shoulder, but was stopped by a voice from behind.

"Come back, Catherine."

Saibo stood at the back of the hall with a glass of wine, and said in a low voice, "The one standing in front of you is not a little guy you can bully casually, in fact, he is so dangerous, the left hand behind his back only needs to One-third of a second to hit your little head, and he's ready to do it, am I right, Peter Parker?"

Hearing this voice, Parker's body trembled, he raised his head, and saw Saber who was holding a glass of wine and nodding at him. It has been 4 years since he saw this gentleman, but he seems to have never Changed by time, seeing those eyes, Parker, who felt danger, hurriedly raised his hands,

"No! I didn't intend to do that, it's just that I felt the threat from Miss Catherine. It was an... an instinct that was hard to control. I didn't think about hurting her, Mr. Sable... You are so good at joking."

After finishing speaking, Parker laughed dryly twice, his eyes looked left and right, and Sergey and Cooper had already faintly blocked his escape path from left to right.

"Brother Cyber!"

Mia turned around in surprise, "Do you know Parker?"

Seber took a look at Parker's expression, he waved his hand, and signaled Sergey and Cooper to get out of the way, he put the wine on the table, walked forward quickly, stretched out his arms to hold Parker who couldn't resist, and looked at him the girls said,

"Of course I know Parker, in fact, I know him before you, that was 5 years ago..."

"No, no, it was 4 years ago."

Parker corrected, he pushed his glasses, "Actually, it was 3 years ago and 11 months ago, in the alley on Mountain Rock Road, Queens, where I met Mr. Seber."

There was a flash of light in Saibo's eyes, he chuckled,

"Of course, it was there that Parker and I teamed up to defeat five bad guys who bullied him. At that time, I brought Catherine to New York for the first time. It was a long time ago. Parker was a very A brave boy, but his bravery is hidden under a peaceful appearance, which is difficult for ordinary people to see."

He turned to look at Gwen,

"Son, you found a great boyfriend, you have a good eye."

Gwen was a little embarrassed by the gazes of Sable and the other girls, she smiled shyly, and this gesture aroused the other people's good-natured laughter, but amidst the laughter, Sable whispered in Parker's ear ,

"You remember?"

Parker nodded inaudibly, "Well... half a month ago, because of some accidents, I just remembered."

"Very good... find a chance to meet me tonight, I will wait for you here!"

"Okay! I'll definitely be there!"
