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

Chapter 419 Roman Holiday (4)

The biggest advantage of being a thief is that you won't be robbed, and you can steal from others.

Without a doubt, Felicia was the kind of person who wasn't very honest. Not only did she prevent her wallet from being stolen, she also found a lot of pocket money in the thieves' pockets. Of course, she wasn't going to return the money.

Of course, being a thief also has its downsides, namely that you'll be watched.

At that very moment, Sylvia was watching her from not far away.

"You're wearing a coat over your armor? Aren't you hot?" Felicia completely ignored Sylvia's presence, first picking out gifts in the gift shop to see what would be suitable to take back: "Or do you actually have no private life? Are you immersed in training and combat 24 hours a day?"

“My strength comes from training, not from a simple bottle. That’s why I don’t have as much free time as you guys for entertainment.” Although Sylvia was wearing combat gear under her coat, she still looked like an ordinary girl. “When the gap between you and your enemy widens, you know what level you need to improve, and that’s when you’ll seize the time to improve yourself. For example, if you had really done specialized combat training, you wouldn’t have failed to defeat a single member of the Viper Gang on the ship.”

Felicia simply smiled, picked up a black cat pendant and examined it: "Or perhaps, my duty isn't to fight. Nobody said that technicians are needed for combat, right?"

"Then what is the purpose of your injection of the Super Soldier Serum?" Sylvia raised an eyebrow, looking at Felicia. If it was really as Felicia said, then shouldn't the Black Cat not need any enhancements?
After all, superheroes only need to fight, while super thieves have a lot more to consider.

Felicia raised an eyebrow, refusing to answer the question. The two were not familiar with each other at all, and Felicia had no need to tell Sylvia that she had injected the super soldier serum for revenge.

No matter who did it, once she finds that person, she will kill them without hesitation.

"It seems you really don't have a personal life, putting everything into fighting and training. What are you working so hard for? To make money?"

After paying and taking the black cat charm, Felicia smiled and asked a question, but Sylvia's answer caught her off guard: "For revenge."

Felicia was stunned.

“When I was 15, my mother was assassinated because my father was working on a project in Europe to combat crimes involving superpowers. An unknown enemy was selling superpowered prisoners as weapons to terrorists. They were wiped out by the Wild Band led by my father. In retaliation, this group attacked my home, intending to kill my mother and me. I was lucky to escape.”

Sylvia said, pulling at her silver hair: "Before that day, my hair was light blonde. After that day, my hair turned silver. It wasn't dyed."

"So..." Felicia roughly understood: "After that, you didn't go to school, but became a mercenary?"

“I asked my father to train me because I knew that an incompetent daughter would become a burden to him again. As long as I was not able to protect myself, I could be attacked again. My father would have to be distracted in order to protect me.”

Sylvia looked at Felicia: "That's why I chose to become a soldier, a soldier who specializes in fighting superpowered individuals. That's also why I didn't inject myself with any of the captured superpower products, because I won't become the kind of person who killed my mother."

"I don't object to you superpowered individuals doing good deeds, whether it's for money, for voluntary purposes, for fame, or simply because you want to do something good. But please remember, I will always be watching you. The Wild Chapter was founded for only one purpose: we, as ordinary people, will devise countermeasures against superpowered individuals."

"...So you really don't have a single private life." Felicia gave a somewhat forced smile, skipping over the topic, and then asked about other things: "So what happens after you've taken your revenge? Of course, even if you've completed your revenge, you'll still have things to do, but shouldn't you have some of your own thoughts?"

Sylvia answered after only a moment of silence.

"I plan to go to university."

Felicia was stunned again. She turned to look at Sylvia, wondering if the other had seen through her or was genuinely honest, as she was willing to answer any question. While Felicia was still confused, Sylvia countered, "And you? After you've completed your revenge, what are your plans?"

“I never said I wanted revenge.”

"Then why did you inject yourself with the super soldier serum?"

Felicia was stumped by the question, so she simply chose not to answer. After the two walked for a while, Felicia still couldn't help but ask, "Why have you been following me?"

"Make sure you don't see anything you shouldn't. Nick Fury sent some men, and he doesn't seem to trust you very much, so I've asked him to keep an eye on you."

Felicia rolled her eyes when she heard this. Okay, it's Nick Fury again. Big shots seem to think they can keep everything a secret.

She glanced at Sylvia and couldn't help but ask, "And what about you? Don't you find this strange? Maybe we should go and see what Nick Fury and his Boy Scouts are up to."

"Don't underestimate Nick Fury. Although I don't think he's a good person, one thing is certain: Nick Fury is definitely not someone to be trifled with."

Do you even need to tell me?

Felicia couldn't help but roll her eyes, but she had already started planning how to shake off Sylvia. She probed again, "What if? What if what they're investigating is related to your mother's death?"

"You can't be sure there's a connection."

“Perhaps I can.” Felicia’s expression turned serious. “My father was killed while investigating the whereabouts of the super-soldier serum in Europe. I’m here to investigate his death as well, and coincidentally, I know some things behind the scenes. So… perhaps you could come along?”

As Felicia spoke, she handed the black cat ornament to Sylvia.

"Interested in going on an adventure together?"
