Spider-Man...
No, that’s not it.
The Spider Spirit has finally come online.
Hawk captured the rapidly shrinking pupils of Peter Parker, unable to help sigh in his heart.
Actually, the reason why he chose to stand by in the shower and was indifferent to Peter on the school bus was not just because he didn’t want to get involved in the tragic life of a superhero, but also because he didn’t want his involvement to cause the First Generation Spider Spirit to fail to come online.
There are three versions of Spider-Man.
Hawk exclusively likes the First Generation Spider Spirit that resembles Bully Maguire.
As for The Amazing?
Initially, he didn’t like it, but when Garfield performed "The Amazing Spider-Man 3" in real life, he started to like it as well.
But Spider-Man (Tom Holland)?
Sorry.
Hawk just can’t come to like him.
Let’s put it this way: just because Spider-Man (Tom Holland) liked someone with black skin, it directly made Hawk’s favorable impression of Spider-Man (Tom Holland) drop to negative.
So...
After these thoughts, Hawk noticed the seemingly stunned Peter Parker staring at him and took the initiative to make a greeting.
"Good afternoon, Peter."
"...Good afternoon."
Bully Maguire came back to his senses, and his expression returned to a simple and honest look. After greeting, he looked at Gwen sitting nearby and greeted her: "Gwen."
Gwen happened to see the moment Hawk and Peter looked at each other.
Although Gwen was a bit puzzled inside, she quickly suppressed this suspicion and responded with a smile: "Good afternoon, Peter, I heard you played with Flash yesterday."
Yesterday at noon, Peter and Flash Thompson caused a stir in the cafeteria.
Gwen wasn’t there, but she heard from others that Peter seemed like a different person, making Bully Flash Thompson covered in dirt.
Peter didn’t say anything, just scratched his head and laughed lightly.
Seeing this, Gwen didn’t say much but made a gesture of encouragement: "You should have fought back long ago. You go, Peter."
Peter smiled even more awkwardly.
Lady Snow, seeing everyone was present, clapped her hands and urged Peter to sit down. Once Peter took a seat on the couch opposite Hawk and Gwen, she walked to her desk and grabbed the three documents on it.
After a while.
Lady Snow handed one of the documents to Gwen: "The holiday job offer for Osborn Biotechnology as an assistant in Dr. Connor’s laboratory."
Gwen’s eyes lit up as she took the document from Lady Snow: "Thank you. Dr. Connor just told me he would contact the school these days. I didn’t expect it to be so fast."
Even without this document, she could go to Dr. Connor’s lab.
But having this document further proves the authenticity of her future resume.
Lady Snow then looked at Hawk and Peter: "The holiday job offers, there are two more, but I’m not sure which one you both prefer, so I simply called you to the office to choose yourself."
As Lady Snow said this, she was just about to speak.
Hawk realized something at this moment, raised his right hand, interrupting Lady Snow.
"Hold on, Lady Snow."
"What’s up, Hawk."
"I still don’t quite understand the reason for calling me."
"..."
Lady Snow was taken aback, looking at Hawk’s puzzled expression, she couldn’t help but say: "Did you forget last month’s chat in the office?"
Hawk heard this, blinked, recalling the scene in last month’s routine counselor one-on-one chat.
He remembered it was a routine conversation.
Except...
Before leaving last time, Lady Snow asked about Hawk’s holiday plans, like whether he found any summer jobs.
Hawk said he hadn’t found anything this year, and Lady Snow then said if Hawk needed help, she could assist in finding one.
He didn’t take it seriously and casually agreed.
After all, he really hadn’t found a summer job this year.
Recalling last month’s conversation, Hawk instinctively took a deep breath.
Seeing Hawk’s change in expression, Lady Snow laughed.
"Remember now?"
"I remember."
Hawk nodded.
Lady Snow chuckled again and brought the topic back, shaking the two documents in her hand: "One is also a summer job offer from Osborn Industries, the bio-electrical department, where they need someone to help organize information. The other one is from Horn Newspaper, they also happen to need a summer intern."
Though both jobs sound like they lack technical content.
Indeed, they lack technical content.
But if you were to directly seek them out yourself, whether Osborn or Horn Newspaper, they’d say they don’t need anyone.
Because these aren’t just jobs, they are favors from Lady Snow.
In short.
Only with the documents Lady Snow now holds, can you get a summer job at Osborn or Horn Daily.
Peter Parker instinctively looked at Hawk.
"Hawk, why don’t you choose first?"
"I..."
Hawk, coming back to his senses, was just about to tell Lady Snow he didn’t plan any summer work when he suddenly thought of something, and changed his words: "I’ll go to Osborn."
He just thought of Dr. Connor’s article on Gamma Rays he saw in the library.
Perfect timing.
He was thinking about whether to find an opportunity to meet Dr. Connor, and now the chance is right here.
Seeing this, Peter looked at Lady Snow: "Then I’ll go to Horn Newspaper. I quite like photography."
Yes.
Not only do you like photography, but you also like selfies, and even selling your selfies to your own newspaper.
Listening to Peter’s words, Hawk mused in his heart.
Lady Snow couldn’t care less about their thoughts, and seeing that they selected themselves, she no longer wasted words, directly handing the documents to Hawk and Peter, then instructed them.
"Peter."
"Hmm."
"When you report to Horn Daily, just say you’re looking for J. Jonah Jameson. Once you see Mr. James, just hand him the document and he’ll handle everything."
"Okay."
"Hawk."
"Lady Snow."
"When you arrive at Osborn Biotechnology, go to the bio-electrical engineering department, and look for an engineer named Max Dillon. I’ll call their supervisor in advance."
"Alright."
Hawk listened to the name, nodded unobtrusively.
Max Dillon?
So, isn’t this guy the little transparent engineer in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 who thought he was ignored by the entire world and, after falling into the electric eel power tank, became Electro?
Never mind.
Not my business.
Hawk shook his head in his heart.
Because compared to Electro or whatever, he’s more interested in Dr. Connor’s Gamma Rays research.
After all...
He has a hunch that the ’Gammanien’ he’s looking for is likely related to Dr. Connor’s research.
