I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.

Chapter 316 Spider-Woman is Not a Hero

Chapter 316 Spider-Woman is Not a Hero
Gwen, a native of Earth 65, woke up at home, still unable to believe what had happened yesterday. She considered calling Peter from the other world, hoping to find out if it was all true.

She hesitated for a moment, then actually made the call.

To my surprise, the call actually went through. A familiar but long-unheard voice came from the other end: "Um, hello, this number is Gwen's, 65 Gwen?"

"...Why is it 65? My height is not 165 centimeters."

"Because your Earth number is 65, which is determined according to the vibrational frequency of the multiverse, although I think you might not understand it."

It seems Peter is certain that he is Gwen from this world, the so-called Earth 65. Come to think of it, they mentioned Earth 616 several times yesterday, so that must be their Earth.

As short-haired Gwen was thinking this, she suddenly heard a somewhat incongruous female voice: "Peter? Who are you talking to on the phone?"

Oh, no wonder it felt off; that was my own voice after the phone call was processed.

She asked in surprise, "Wait, you live together?"

“Uh, yes, one room, not one bed.” Peter Parker explained on the other end of the phone: “We are currently staying on the S.H.I.E.L.D. airship. I don’t know if you’ve seen the rooms on the airship online, but they are very small, with three bunk beds, and the soldiers are all crammed in. Today I’m going to tell S.H.I.E.L.D. to change rooms, mainly because it’s inconvenient and Gwen isn’t comfortable either.”

Um, I wasn't actually planning to hear your explanation...

After listening to Peter's explanation, short-haired Gwen fell silent for a moment before Peter suddenly asked, "I guess you're not a superhero now, are you? Spider-Woman gets a lot of news, but not much news about her doing good deeds."

"...Yeah, I'm not a superhero. Are you disappointed?"

“No, like Uncle Ben told me, as long as you don’t use your abilities to do bad things, it’s fine. Using them to make money, using them to become famous, it’s all a matter of personal choice.” Peter explained to Gwen with short hair, “The real problem is that you don’t know what to do right now, right?”

“Yes, it’s been like this ever since you… I mean, since my Peter passed away. You two are really different. Even though you have the same face, your personalities are completely different. If he could have been as sunny and confident as you, maybe, maybe none of this would have happened.”

After another silence, Peter Parker from 616 made a suggestion: "If you need, I can go with you to meet Uncle Ben and Aunt May, the Uncle Ben and Aunt May of this world."

For a moment, short-haired Gwen considered accepting the offer, but just a moment later, she shook her head and refused, saying, "No, never mind, I can't accept this offer... not now."

“If you need me, I’m still here, just give me a call.”

After finishing her phone call, short-haired Gwen got up smoothly. Just as Peter said, Spider-Woman wasn't a hero. She was just a high school student who had gained spider powers and had accidentally killed her best friend. She didn't know what to do.

As for going to see Aunt May and Uncle Ben...

She didn't know how to face them. Short-haired Gwen had once visited Parker's house and witnessed Uncle Ben and Aunt May collecting every clue they could find about Spider-Woman. Gwen was terrified in that moment. She felt that Uncle Ben and Aunt May were looking for her, seeking revenge for their nephew.

She's too scared to go to Parker's house now.

Even if Peter from another world were there, so what? Would they be able to forgive her? Perhaps Gwen could convince herself again and again that the lizardman couldn't even recognize Peter at the time, that Peter had lost his mind, and that she might die if he didn't fight back. She never expected him to be so badly injured.

"I can't lie to myself, I can't lie to Uncle Ben and Aunt May..."

A dejected Gwen, the spider, once again shouldered her backpack and headed to school. She chose to use her powers, soothing herself by soaring through the air, when suddenly she felt a pang of fear. Her spider senses rang louder than ever before. Short-haired Gwen looked around, puzzled, and then saw a figure descending from the sky.

"What...what is that?!" It was a bald man with an evil, even somewhat disgusting smile. He spread his dark green wings and pounced on Spider Gwen.

"Let's settle this once and for all, Spider-Woman!"

Peter, aboard the Aegis carrier, had no idea what had happened. After hanging up the phone, Gwen walked in curiously and asked, "Were you talking to the short-haired me?"

"Yes, she wanted to talk to me."

"It's so early. I should have just woken up."

Gwen grumbled unhappily, but noticing Peter deep in thought, she couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"

"I'm thinking……"

"Ok?"

"If you two have the same phone number, then who will answer when I call you?"

Gwen: ...

Is that what you're thinking about?

Gwen sighed as she realized a blind spot: although the months were the same, Gwen Stacy and her peers (excluding spider webs) in this universe were all a year older than her.

While the two were thinking about different boring things, someone knocked on the door. Peter guessed that Carter had come to see him again, so he opened the door. Unexpectedly, the person standing outside was someone he never dreamed would come.

"Hello, Peter, it's been a long time. Perhaps we just met in your universe."

The person outside the door was Harry Osborn. He looked weathered and was noticeably more robust than Harry in 616, indicating that he had received a lot of training.

Peter was somewhat surprised to bring Harry in, and then asked, "Hello, Harry. This should be our first meeting, although I saw you yesterday on my end."

“That’s normal. I heard you’re investigating the Lizard People. I happen to have some information here, and I’d like to ask you a few questions.” Harry from Earth-65 looked at Peter: “You know who Spider-Woman is, right?”

"You want to find Spider-Woman and avenge your friend."

Harry didn't speak, he just nodded.

"Do you really believe Jonah Jameson's claim that Spider-Woman killed Peter Parker?"

"Otherwise, who else could it be?"

"She is Gwen."

Peter interrupted Harry with a single sentence, then asked further, "Do you believe that Gwen Stacy killed Peter Parker?"
