Chapter 47

Although Spider-Man doesn’t have such resources now, if he joins the Avengers in the future, with the help of the government, it shouldn’t be too difficult to find out his true identity.

Just as he sensed the abundant feast of souls, the part of Ymir’s mind that was the resentful ghost took over, and now it was too late to regret it.

“Um, I’m very sorry.” Due to the other party’s silence, Spider-Man quickly realized what was happening.

It was understandable; just like himself, the other party was someone who didn’t want to reveal their true identity to the public.

Not bad, Spider-Man was a smart person. Without needing much explanation, he already understood Ymir’s intentions.

In his impression, although Spider-Man was a chatterbox, he didn’t have the habit of betraying his comrades. This indicated that Ymir’s existence was still quite secret, and he felt more at ease. He said to Spider-Man, “You don’t need to worry, I have no ill intentions. But shouldn’t we find a different place to talk?”

Spider-Man, crouching on the wall and talking to Ymir, looked to others like he was talking to himself. Ymir, in his invisible state, wasn’t visible to just anyone.

“OK!” Seeing that Doctor Octopus could handle the other super-criminals alone, Spider-Man thought there was no need for him to stay.

The streets were already mostly demolished, and the sirens of police cars were approaching from a distance.

It seemed there was no way out, but for Spider-Man, who had the map of New York memorized, it didn’t affect him at all. He knew where to go to avoid public attention.

“Alright.” Seeing Spider-Man lift a manhole cover on the side of the road, Ymir wrinkled his nose in disgust and followed down.

Perhaps it was karma; he had just played a small prank on Peter’s classmate, Morbius, at New York University, and now he had to go down the sewer. Ymir maintained a distance from Spider-Man, silently following behind.

This wasn’t because he was wary of Spider-Man; it was simply that he couldn’t stand Spider-Man’s endless chatter.

After confirming there were no enemies in the sewer, Spider-Man seemed much more relaxed. He walked forward, whistling with his hands behind his head, and at the same time, tried to sell himself to Ymir: “Hey, Ghost, let’s get to know each other. My name is Spider-Man. You can call me Web-Head or Amazing Spider, but I don’t really like the Web-Head name, so just call me Spider...”

Ymir was speechless: “......”

His knowledge of Spider-Man came from the movies he watched in his previous life, and he never knew Spider-Man’s chatter could reach such an extreme level.

Spider-Man, unable to see Ymir’s expression, took a few steps forward, moved a barrier, and crawled through: “If we weren’t in the sewer, I could buy you a cheeseburger, but it can’t cost more than $7.84. Hey, buddy, it’s not that I’m cheap; I can only spend that much when I take my girlfriend out.”

He listened carefully, and the only sound in the sewer was the flowing water, with no one else around. He didn’t have to worry about being overheard.

“I’m not interested in your girlfriend.” No matter how many girlfriends he had, Ymir only cared that he didn’t harm his sister.

Spider-Man, leading the way, spread his hands and sighed: “I wish my work environment wasn’t always so bad. Dirty and smelly sewers, why can’t I have a job as dignified as Mr. Fantastic? Why is it always sewers?”

Ymir, who already felt a bit itchy in his throat, felt even more nauseous after Spider-Man’s words. He quickly interjected: “Wait, you mean Mr. Fantastic? You know them?”

Ymir never knew that Spider-Man and Mr. Fantastic were acquainted; this wasn’t mentioned in the movies he watched in his previous life.

“Of course, this city doesn’t have just one superhero. For example, the Fantastic Four, the Avengers, the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, but they never appear in sewers. Let me think, there’s also the Hulk, Daredevil...”

The amount of information in Spider-Man’s words was overwhelming, and Ymir didn’t react until he heard the name Daredevil: “You mean Mr. Matt?”

Spider-Man’s steps paused, and he turned to stare at the air, looking surprised: “Yeah, you know Daredevil’s true identity?”

Ymir: “......” He felt the movies he watched in his previous life were unreliable, as no one told him that Spider-Man and Daredevil were also good friends. To be safe, he didn’t reveal himself, just speaking in a hoarse voice: “I’ve seen him once.”

Spider-Man said, “Oh,” thinking that this Ghost didn’t seem like a bad guy, and it wasn’t strange for him to know Daredevil.

He said, “Daredevil and I are among the earliest to know each other’s identities, but that was by coincidence. Mr. Matt is a good person, and I sometimes go to him when I have problems.”

“Alright, that is indeed a problem......” Ymir followed Spider-Man, wanting to leave this chatty superhero as soon as possible.

“Where are you taking me?”

Spider-Man scratched his head, embarrassed: “I forgot...... So, Ghost, where do you want to go?”

“......” Ymir found that the longer he stayed with Spider-Man, the more depressed he felt. He waved his hand, not caring if Spider-Man could see: “Anywhere is fine, let’s get back to the surface quickly.”

“Alright!” Spider-Man agreed, thinking the ghost was easy to get along with. He led the way: “I wrapped my clothes in spider silk and left them in the sewer. If you don’t mind, can I go get them?”

He pointed to his red and blue spandex suit with a spider emblem: “Wearing this on the street isn’t a good idea......”

Ymir checked the time; it was still early. Since Spider-Man had a direction, he had no objections. They walked in the sewer for a while, and Ymir suddenly remembered something: “By the way, Spider-Man, you know the sewers of New York so well, have you ever met the Lizard?”

“The Lizard?” Spider-Man was a bit wary when Ymir mentioned this. His boss, James, the editor of the Daily Bugle, offered a thousand dollars for a photo of the Lizard, which was his top priority recently.

But thinking about it, not every superhero was as poor as he was, and the existence of the Lizard was still uncertain. So Spider-Man didn’t think much of it, just speaking honestly: “I’ve seen reports about the Lizard in the newspaper, but there’s no evidence to prove his existence. It might just be another boring urban legend.”
