Chapter 229-231

Heroes of Marvel
Just as Lin Rui was looking around for the missing Peter, Peter was standing on the edge of the roof of a building wearing a Spiderman suit.
Since Venom’s integration into the Spiderman suit that day, Peter has never had a nightmare. But every time Peter puts on the Spiderman suit, his personality will change drastically and he craves to show his powers and that’s where the recent Spiderman incident in New York comes in.
And, as Venom’s influence on Peter grew, he could hardly take off the Spiderman suit. Just like now, Peter has been wandering around New York for a whole day in the Spiderman suit. Regardless of whether he encountered a gang drug deal, a small gang crossfire, or a robbery, a thief, or anything else., Peter will appear and he started beating them up more then he usually does and he seems to like the brutality of punching kicking someone hard.
Under the constant deepening influence of Venom, Peter is now almost completely changed. Not only did he ignore the many call requests from Mirage Knight, he didn’t even go to class now.
Of course, under such changes, Peter also found anomalies in Spiderman’s suit and the most obvious is the color change. As Venom parasitized in Peter’s suit longer, the color of the Spiderman suit quickly spread towards black.
Peter had even seen the entire suit come alive when he took off the Spiderman suit, splitting black tentacles from all over the suit and reaching out to Peter as if he did not want to leave Peter. Peter was still a little bit afraid of this kind of thing but inspired by the inexplicable excitement in his heart, Peter has been using the Venom suit. And now he is even more unafraid to use the convenience brought by the Venom suit, a kind of mental comfort and great enhancement of strength, which makes Peter very addicted to it.



What the hell are you?
Peter whispered while looking at the Spiderman suit that had turned almost black, raising his hand to touch it while he stood a few hundred meters high.
Uh ~
As Peter asks questions, a Spiderman suit on his arm gives off a sort of animated twist. And after the twist is over, the suit’s color gets a little darker again, looking especially eerie in the setting sun.

Then let’s play again.
Peter seemed to be talking to himself, and he let go and fell to the street below.
Call!
Then Peter jumped directly from the top of the building, which was a few hundred meters away. Puff Puff! Between the waves, Peter had disappeared from the streets of New York.
…
At eight in the evening, Lin Rui, who had not found Peter, had to give up his search temporarily. After talking to Aunt Mei again, Lin Rui rushed to the place he previously agreed to meet Captain Rogers.
Because Captain America has a big name now and because Lin Rui obviously wants to meet him as Mirage Knight, the place where they are going to meet is very secret and it is in a deserted park far from New York City. Lin Rui originally thought that he would meet him at a cafe in the SHIELD office, but Captain Rogers doesn’t want his meeting with Lin Rui to be known by SHIELD or Fury.
When Lin Rui wore the Phantom Suit and went to the lake in that park, he found that Steve was already waiting for him. Steve quickly turned to look at Mirage Knight when he heard the movement behind him.



Hello, Captain Rogers.
Lin Rui greeted briefly as he walked in front of Steve.

Hello, Mirage Knight. Thank you for meeting me here.
Steve, dressed casually, suppressed his eagerness and thanked Lin Rui first.

It’s nothing. Speaking of which, you are now the hero of the United States and people have found that you are still alive. Did something happen for you to come to New York this time?
Hearing Steve’s words, Lin Rui walked towards a wooden bench by the lake and asked.

Actually, I came to meet you this time because I wanted to ask you something. I wonder if you could tell me, but why did you deliberately let go of that Hydra Assasin at SHIELD headquarters last time?
Following Lin Rui towards the bench and sitting down, Steve didn’t say anything about Bucky and instead, he asked a question.

Hmm? Let that person go on purpose? Captain Rogers, you have fought with that person. You must know how strong he is. I didn’t catch up with him because he escaped from me.
Hearing Steve’s words, Lin Rui frowned slightly and replied in a calm tone. He didn’t know that the battle between him and Bucky had been monitored and filmed, and now lying was only going to convince Captain Rogers that he was hiding something.

Mirage Knight, let’s not hide anything. I know that Winter Soldier is Bucky Barnes and he is also the assassin made by Hydra, he is my best friend and he should have died 60 years ago!
Seeing that Mirage Knight was going to continue to pretend, Steve said directly.

Also, the surveillance video of your confrontation with Bucky is in my hands, so don’t lie anymore. I know you must know something about Bucky, otherwise, you wouldn’t have let him go. What else do you know?
Steve asked while staring at Lin Rui’s eyes which were exposed from the mask.
In fact, when Lin Rui heard Captain Rogers say Winter Soldier, he already knew things could not be concealed anymore. He must have known Bucky’s identity. So after Steve asked the following words, Lin Rui was not too surprised.

Hoo ~ now that you already know, I have nothing to hide. Yes, I did know from the beginning that there is a Hydra Assasin known as the Winter Soldier who has been around for sixty years. I met him for the first time outside your apartment and I had already confirmed that he was Colonel Bucky Barnes. I didn’t tell you that because I just felt that the timing was wrong. You have to know that the current Bucky is not the Bucky you know now.
Lin Rui said unhurriedly.
The brother-type relationship between Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes is also a major feature in Marvel movies. After all, this kind of relationship that spans six decades is not comparable to ordinary people.



I know what happened to Bucky. I have asked Natasha to help me collect information about Hydra’s experiments on Bucky.
Speaking of this, Steve couldn’t hold back his anger and distress.
After seeing those materials, Steve can’t wait to smash all the Hydra left in this world to vent his heart. During the operation sixty years ago, Bucky fell off the cliff but instead of being killed, Hydra captured him and experimented on him. Finally, after constant physical transformation and brain hypnosis, Bucky Barnes, the heroic soldier, was transformed into the only perfect Winter Soldier. Over the past sixty years, he has been constantly frozen and unsealed to perform various secret missions. His hands have been dyed red by Hydra.

Now that you already know, why did you come to me? I don’t know much more than you do now.
Lin Rui asked curiously when Steve said this.

I came to see you and wanted to know what you said to Bucky the other day? It seems to remind him of something.
From the monitoring analysis of the Bucky, Rogers clearly saw that Bucky had said his name, which is not something that a brainwashed person could say.

Oh! This! Actually, I was just talking about some previous things at the time. I wanted to try if I could awaken Bucky’s previous memories. I didn’t expect it to have some effect.


Do you mean, Bucky can get rid of Hydra’s brainwashing?
Steve asked suddenly, hearing Lin Rui’s answer.

Well, as long as Bucky’s willpower is strong enough, and then he stopped receiving further brainwashing in the future, I think he should be able to recover.
Nodding gently, Lin Rui answered in a serious voice. Lin Rui does not dare to be sure right now, after all, the mind is a mysterious thing and its functioning is very complicated. If BuckyRecovery fails, it will not be a face.

Great! I believe Bucky will be able to recover! But, we have to find him first! Do you know where Bucky is now?
Steve asked, after getting the answer he wanted.
Do you really think that I am some sort of Gennie?!! You do realize that I don’t know everything! Hearing Captain Rogers’s words, Lin Rui reluctantly spoke in his heart.

I don’t know. Whether Bucky has recovered his memories or not, I don’t think he will be easily found. However, with SHIELD’s strength, it shouldn’t be impossible to find Bucky. I believe you will be able to meet him again.




Thank you, Mirage Knight.
Upon hearing Lin Rui’s answer, Steve’s eyes were a little dull and he said in a low tone.

You don’t have to thank me, I didn’t help you that much. However, finding other Hydra bases should help in finding Bucky. After all, Winter Soldier is dead for Hydra.
At the end of the chat, Lin Rui did not forget to pour oil on Hydra, This is conducive to the rapid completion of his mainline quest.


Okay, I see. Mirage Knight, thank you for your message. I will help you if you need my help in the future, goodbye.
The purpose of this visit has been achieved and Steve stood up and said.

Well, goodbye, Captain Rogers.


The next morning after meeting with Captain Rogers, Lin Rui received a call from Aunt May. On the phone, Aunt May said that Peter had only come home late last night and there seems to be something wrong with Aunt May’s tone on the phone. So, while calling and asking for a leave from the teacher, Lin Rui was already driving his broken jeep towards Peter’s house.
Card ~
Half an hour later, when Lin Rui ran to the door of Peter’s house, Aunt May just opened the door from the inside.

Jackson, there you are! Go and see Peter. I don’t think he’s feeling right. I have to go to work today, but I’ll be back early.
As she gathers up her belongings, Aunt May speaks quickly to Lin Rui, who has already walked through the door.

I know, Don’t worry Aunt May, you go to your work, I will talk to him and call you if there is something wrong.
Seeing Peter’s aunt getting worried, Lin Rui quickly answered.

Ok, thank you. Peter is in his room, you can go in.
It seems that she is going to be late for work and Aunt May went out in a hurry.


Bang ~
Lin Rui closed the door after Aunt May went out, and then he walked up to Peter’s room. It hs been a few days since he has seen Peter and the Alliance’s armguards have somehow failed, Lin Rui wonders what had happened to Peter and what’s going on now.
Bouncing ~ Bouncing ~ Dong Dong ~ Dong Dong!!
As soon as he opened Peter’s door, a burst of rhythmic music filled Lin Rui’s ears. Peter, whom Lin Rui had been looking for days, was standing on his bed, dancing to the music, looking very excited.

Hey! Jackson, you are here! Let’s dance together!
Peter saw him when Lin Rui pushed the door open and then he directly asked Lin Rui to dance together with him. Peter in this state was obviously abnormal, and Lin Rui even began to think if Peter had become an idiot.
Card!
Looking at Peter dancing on the bed, Lin Rui didn’t say anything, but went to the speaker and reached out to turn off the music. With Lin Rui’s action, the loud music in the room disappeared instantly and Peter’s dancing on the bed stopped. Looking down at Lin Rui slightly, Peter seemed a little confused as to why he wanted to interrupt his dancing.

Peter, what’s the matter with you? Are you sick? Are you acting out?.
Lin Rui, who was getting stared at by Peter, asked seriously.
In the few moments since entering the door, Lin Rui has carefully observed Peter and even scanned him carefully with the internal force which left Peter’s body after a few seconds, but the result was not very fruitful. However, Peter’s current performance is unlikely to be all right.
Call!
Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Peter jumped out of bed and fell in front of Lin Rui.

What’s wrong? I’m fine! I think I’m feeling much better now than before! Don’t you think?
Opening his eyes to look at Lin Rui, Peter asked with a smile but Peter would not behave like this before.
Huh ~
Staring at Peter’s eyes, Lin Rui’s expression turned pale and he pushed him away a bit. From Peter’s eyes, Lin Rui felt strange. It’s not that strangeness between people you don’t know, it’s more like a kind of indifferent emotion like he isn’t even seeing him as a human being.
Pushed aside by Lin Rui, Peter slides back towards his bed and picks up the controller in front of him, looking like he’s about to play a game.

Why didn’t you go to class for the last two days?
Lin Rui asked, sitting beside Peter while watching Peter’s behavior.

Class? Oh, I forgot. And, don’t you feel that classes are boring? Actually, for us, the current classes aren’t even necessary anymore. Didn’t Harry already leave school early? We have better grades than Harry, why should we go to school when we would learn nothing there?
Peter fiddled with the game controller and replied casually.
Brush!!

Are you really Peter Parker? The Peter I know wouldn’t think like that, he wouldn’t be a person who just played outside and didn’t go home for the sake of his joy, even without class!
Hearing Peter’s answer, Lin Rui couldn’t help it anymore and grabbed Peter’s shoulder, who was going to play the game and forcibly turned him to face him and spoke.
Lin Rui now wants to put on the Mirage Knight suit directly and let Peter know that he knows all his secrets, and then use his internal energy to carefully examine Peter’s body.

Really? I was such a good baby before, but now I have changed.
Peter looked at Lin Rui, who was a little angry and said indifferently.
Then Peter grabbed Lin Rui’s hand and took it off from his shoulders and went back to the game. This attitude was unlike anything Lin Rui had ever encountered before, and he was momentarily stunned. What’s more, Lin Rui felt a slight tingling sensation in the palm of Peter’s hand when he pulled away from his hand, but when he looked back, he found no wound. Lin Rui thought it was an illusion.

Peter, you’re really acting weird right now, haven’t you noticed it yourself?
Lin Rui, who still didn’t know what went wrong with Peter, continued to persuade him and he was also feeling that he had forgotten something important.
Lin Rui has also seen a lot of photos and videos on the Internet about Spiderman’s attack on criminals in the past few days. He feels that he should remember something but he couldn’t remember it.
Peter had become too tainted by Venom to respond to Lin Rui’s concerns, he has grown selfish and unemotional, like a cold machine.
In this way, with Peter’s indifference towards him, Lin Rui stayed with him for a day at his house. Lin Rui plans to change to his Mirage Knight persona after the night and come to Peter again. At that time, he will pull Peter for a careful inspection. He must find out what went wrong with Peter.
However, before the evening, Peter planned to go out before Aunt May was off work. Although Lin Rui strongly dissuaded him, Peter wouldn’t listen to him at this time. Finally, Lin Rui reluctantly went out with Peter.
And Peter’s destination turned out to be a lively bar, a place where Peter would not have come before. Peter who came to the bar seemed to have completely released his
nature
, standing alone under the lights and dancing freely, and soon attracted the entire bar’s attention.
Peter was a little handsome at first, and now he looks cool dancing in the center of the stage, it is normal for him to get attention in this bar. But Lin Rui, who was staring at Peter became increasingly disturbed, Peter’s behavior has now become completely unreasonable to him.
Amid the cheers of the surrounding young people and music, Peter danced and skated to the edge of the dance floor beside a beautiful girl. After sliding in front of the beautiful girl, Lin Rui reaches out and makes an invitation gesture. He is asking the beautiful girl to dance with him!

I’m sorry, you’re not my type, though you’re handsome.
Faced with Peter’s invitation, the beautiful girl refused with a smile.
However, Peter did not seem to hear the refusal of the beautiful girl and he even directly reached out and took her hand in his to pull her into the dance floor. Now the girl was getting a little flustered and was about to break free when a hand reached out to help her stop Peter. It’s Lin Rui and he really can’t stand it anymore.

Peter, isn’t this enough? Let’s go home before it;s too late!
Lin Rui whispered while holding Peter’s hand which was holding the girl’s hand. Peter’s condition was a lot like the symptoms of bipolar or dual personality disorder and Lin Rui had to wake him up before Peter was completely out of control.
What surprised Lin Rui, however, was that Peter whose hand was caught by him only glanced up at him and then a sudden powerful force came from the grasped hand.
Call!
Puff Puff!
Unable to react, Lin Rui was swept aside by Peter’s wave and flew two meters upside down before crashing to a stop on a table. Peter’s wave has a little Spiderman power in it, how ordinary people won’t be able to stand it, but fortunately, Lin Rui is not ordinary, but he also got swept out by accident.

Lin Rui falls to the ground feeling a little confused, he does not know why Peter had hit him back, Did Peter even remember that he is his best friend? However just as Lin Rui gets up with the help of someone else, Peter suddenly looks at him and then hurriedly pushes aside the person next to him and rushes out.

Peter! Peter!
By the time Lin Rui ran after Peter, he had already lost sight of him, Peter had disappeared again.

Are you OK?


Do you want to call the police?


I’m fine, I don’t need you to call the police. He is my friend. He hasn’t been feeling very good recently.
Facing the people around him, Lin Rui waved his hand and explained while thinking.
Peter, what’s going on with you?!

Call!
Brush! Brush!
After running out of the bar, Peter darted out of the busy nearby street under the cover of darkness and finally disappeared under the somewhat surprised sight of passers-by.

What’s wrong with me? That’s my best friend, Jackson! I actually hurt my best friend!
Peter yelled while running fast. At this time, Peter seemed to be recovering because Lin Wei was
injured
because of him. However, Peter who finds himself in a wrong situation will no longer stay with Lin Rui, so he chooses to escape.
After running into the shadows with no one around him, Peter jumped up a little under his feet. As he jumps, Peter’s blazer changes rapidly, quickly morphing into a dark black Spiderman suit. It turned out that Venom had been on Peter and had never left him!
Thwip!
As soon as he raised his hand, a spider silk thread shot from Peter’s wrist and stuck to the high-rise wall. Thwip! Then, Peter, who turned into a black Spiderman, quickly left his original location in a few waves between the high-rise buildings.
That night, Lin Rui did not wait at Peter’s house until he returned. Although Lin Rui was increasingly worried about Peter’s situation, there was no way to find him. So, Lin Rui, who didn’t want to make any trouble for Peter had to resort to asking Tony for help. Peter’s Spiderman suit was designed by Tony. Lin Rui didn’t believe that Tony hadn’t put some kind of tracking device on it, at least a certain positioning function must exist.
While contacting Tony, Lin Rui also gave Sky’s Eye his first mission to find Spiderman in New York through his system and to notify Lin Rui as soon as he found Peter’s whereabouts. Of course, notifying others in the League of Defenders will also do. However, with Peter’s current strength, no one other than Lin Rui in the League of Defender should be able to restrain Peter.
Sky’s Eye, who received Mirage Knight’s mission was particularly excited and immediately put his system into full operation. The dozens of high-performance, self-assembled computers in his home were running at full speed but it was still a lot of work for such a wide range of searches.
Tony’s beach house, Tony is lying on the sofa enjoying the beautiful scenery in the open air. The recent retrofit of the anti-gravity engine for the SHIELD aircraft-carrier is going very well and will probably be ready for final commissioning soon. One of the reasons Tony is so happy is that he had J.A.R.V.I.S intercept the information about him while the top-secret data from the SHIELD was released to the public, including some of Tony’s father Howard Stark’s top-secret tests. Apparently, last time when SHIELD gave Tony his father’s belongings, they were still incomplete.
And just as Tony relaxed and sipped the wine, J.A.R.V.I.S’s voice suddenly sounded out of place,
Sir, Mr. Mirage Knight is calling.


Take it. I don’t know what’s the matter with him this time.
Placing the cup on the coffee table in front of him, Tony replied back softly while squinting.

Yes, sir.
After agreeing, J.A.R.V.I.S had accepted Lin Rui’s call.

Mirage Knight, is there something wrong again? Last time you asked J.A.R.V.I.S for help and I haven’t even asked you for the favor and you called back again, do you want my help again?
Lin Rui hadn’t spoken yet and Tony had already asked.

Uh … I will always remember Mr. Stark’s help. However, this time there is something that requires your help.
Lin Rui said awkwardly at Tony’s slightly ridiculous words.

Well, let’s talk, what’s the matter?
Tony had already guessed that Mirage Knight would only call him if he needs something so he asked calmly.

Well, can you locate Spiderman’s spider suit? I can’t contact Spiderman anymore.
Lin Rui asked without asking talking any nonsense.

Can’t contact Spiderman? I’ll ask J.A.R.V.I.S. J.A.R.V.I.S, where is Spiderman suit at this time?
Tony was a little surprised when he heard Lin Rui’s words and then he ordered J.A.R.V.I.S.
A few seconds later, J.A.R.V.I.S’s voice came out, but his answer changed Tony and Lin Rui’s face on the phone.

Sir, I can’t locate the spider suit. We lost contact with the spider suit.
This is the answer from J.A.R.V.I.S. as it couldn’t detect the position of the spider suit and any information.

How is that possible? Is it a system failure?
After hearing J.A.R.V.I.S’s answer, Tony no longer leaned on the sofa and asked seriously after sitting upright.

The initial assessment is that there has been serious damage to the suit as the signal was completely disconnected 17 hours ago. It is not possible to determine the cause.
The calm voice of J.A.R.V.I.S delivered its analysis.

Serious damage? How is that possible?
This time, before Tony could speak, Lin Rui on the other end of the phone called out. Judging from Peter’s frequent efforts in these two days, the spider suit doesn’t seem to have any damage at all.

Mirage Knight, what happened? Did something happen to Spiderman?
Not expecting that something would happen to that little guy after he didn’t pay any attention to him in the past few days. Tony was a little angry and he asked Lin Rui.

I also want to find out about that, Spiderman’s recent behavior is weird, he is acting like he has a mental problem. Not only is he not acting with us, but he is missing now, and I am worried about what will happen to him.
Facing Tony’s question, Lin Rui was also feeling very helpless. He didn’t know what happened to Peter!

Mental Problem?! Well, I will let JARVIS search for Spiderman. If necessary, I will also send out the Iron Man Armor and we will find Spiderman safe and sound.
Tony clearly heard Lin Rui’s tone and the worries inside it and he mentioned in a slightly consoling tone.
Speaking of the damage to the spider suit, Tony should have noticed it earlier. It was just a signal anomaly and Tony didn’t take it seriously. And now both Peter and the Spiderman suit are gone, Tony has some regrets about not paying attention to the abnormal signal at that time.

Well, I’ll try to find Spiderman here, too. I’ll let you know when I get something!
With a yes, Lin Rui hangs up.

J.A.R.V.I.S.


Yes, sir.


Monitor all of New York for 24 hours a day from now, activate two Mark 5 Ironmen Armor and get them on standby.


Yes, sir.

…
While Lin Rui, League of Defender, and Tony were all searching for the missing Spiderman, there was another person in New York who was looking for Spiderman.
On the top floor of Osborn’s building, in Harry’s office. Although it was late, Harry hadn’t returned home, and he was staring at the videos and pictures on the computer. Those videos and pictures have only one protagonist, Spiderman, Spiderman who fights on the streets of New York.

Spiderman, it won’t be long. I will get revenge for my father, I will put you down for him.
Staring at the aggressive Spiderman on the computer, Harry whispered while clenching his teeth.
Dī Dī ~
Just then, Harry’s computer flashed with an email sigh at the bottom right corner.

Haha! At last!
After clicking on the email and scanning the contents with his eyes, Harry burst into laughter.

Spiderman! I’ll see you soon!
