the next day.

Hawke sensed the changes in the outside world, his mind detached from his own inner universe, and he slowly opened his eyes to look at Gwen lying on top of him.

"morning."

Seeing that Hawke had successfully gotten up, Gwen kissed him on the forehead, then got up and headed outside: "Come down quickly, I brought you breakfast."

Hawke responded.

Today is the day they're going on a trip to London as a couples group.

Everyone is very excited.

Although the flight was at noon, after a unanimous vote, everyone decided to go to the airport in the morning to avoid traffic jams and missing the flight.

Ok.

The "everyone" here refers to Gwen and Mary.

Hawke and Peter...

Let's not talk about Hawke and Peter.

When Hawke took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and came down from the third floor to the first floor, the first thing he saw was the breakfast that Gwen had brought on the counter.

Gwen stood in front of the fireplace in the living room, looking at it with some curiosity.

"Hawk, did you touch this fireplace yesterday?"

"what?"

Hawke, who had just opened the coffee cup Gwen had brought from home and taken a sip, turned to look at Gwen standing in front of the fireplace in the living room: "What's wrong with the fireplace?"

Gwen turned and walked toward the dining room: "The fireplace feels a little different than yesterday."

Hawke brushed past Gwen's shoulder and glanced toward the fireplace.

"Is it different?"

"You might have misread it."

Gwen shrugged, not caring, and urged Hawke, "Eat quickly, Mary just texted that she's gone to the airport with Peter."

Hawke didn't say anything upon hearing this. He quickly finished his coffee, then swallowed the two pancakes Gwen had brought. He clapped his hands and led the way toward the garage.

Gwen stared in surprise, then, seeing Hawke already heading towards the garage, she quickly snapped out of her daze and followed him.

Have you taken your luggage?

"It's in the car."

"Ok."

Gwen got into the passenger seat, took out her phone, sent a message to Mary, and then looked at the slowly opening garage door: "Dog, dog, dog!"

Hawke smiled slightly, stepped on the gas, and drove out of the garage.

At noon.

International flights from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport to London's Heathrow Airport proceeded on time without delay and took off smoothly after a short taxiing.

Because it was an international flight, and there were a lot of people going to London at that time, the four of them couldn't get seats in a row.

Peter and Mary chose a spot on the second floor.

Hawke and Gwen were in two window seats on the first floor.

After the plane took off and entered stable flight mode, Gwen pulled down her blindfold and told Hawke that she wanted to take a nap.

After all, it takes about seven hours to fly from New York to London.

If you don't sleep, you can't just stare blankly through the long period of time.

Hawke, sitting to the side, turned his head to the side and looked at the scenery outside the window as it gradually rose into the sky. For some reason, he was reminded of his experiences from his two previous trips.

I encountered robbers the first time I got off the plane.

The planes were grounded for the second time due to a military coup.

hiss.

There were unexpected events before boarding the plane, and there were also unexpected events after disembarking.

What about this time?

Hopefully, something unexpected will happen and the plane will fly away.

Hawke couldn't help but think to himself.

After all, things shouldn't happen more than three times. If something unexpected really happens again this time, it can only mean one thing.

He is not suited to leave New York City.

Fortunately...

The seven-and-a-half-hour flight proceeded without incident; even the descent and taxiing were exemplary, and the plane finally came to a smooth stop at London Heathrow Airport.

Hawke breathed a sigh of relief.

Ok.

It seems I was just scaring myself.

next second.

He saw the cabin door open, and a series of London airport police officers walked in with serious expressions, then went up the stairs to the second floor.

Half an hour later, the plot of five Middle Easterners who were trying to hijack the flight to extort the release of their compatriots from London was foiled by the courageous Mr. Peter Parker and Ms. Mary Jane, who subdued them without alerting the other passengers.

All of a sudden.

As everyone watched the five robbers being dragged out of the restroom, and after the flight attendant recounted the incident, thunderous applause erupted.

Peter smiled shyly.

Mary, on the other hand, smiled with great pride.

Gwen, who had just woken up, looked shocked.

Hawke remained silent.

Ok.

My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died. He really wasn't suited to leave New York City.

wrong……

It seems like we can leave. Next time we want to leave, we can take Peter with us. As long as he doesn't make a move, then there won't be any surprises.
Hawke came up with a self-deceiving solution.

Because of this incident, Hawke and Gwen accompanied Peter and Mary to the airport police station to give a brief statement. By the time they came out, it was already 1 a.m. London time.

Airport police officers arranged a car to take them to their pre-booked hotel, which was located near the Tower of London.

This hotel is close to the Tower of London and also close to London Bridge.

So after discussing it, Gwen and Mary decided to stay at this hotel.

Because there is no fundamental difference between the night in London and the night in New York City.

and so……

After he and Gwen got their room key and returned to their room, they took advantage of being in a foreign country to have some exercise. Although they had taken a nap beforehand, Gwen was still exhausted and quickly fell into a deep sleep again.

Hawke looked at Gwen, who had fallen asleep beside him, smiled slightly, covered her with the blanket, and then grabbed his phone to open the email Anna had sent him earlier at the police station, which he hadn't read.

Then, a boarding pass information appeared prominently before my eyes.

Eric Scharvig!

He just flew to London.

That's the doctor who studied astronomy in Thor 1, and also the one in the Avengers who was responsible for researching the Tesseract but was accidentally mind-controlled by Loki using the Mind Stone, opening a wormhole that ultimately attracted the Chitauri army.

Hawke looked at the boarding pass Anna sent him and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

It seems his trip to London came at just the right time.

Dr. Eric Scharvig has arrived.

Dr. Jane Foster should be arriving soon.

His Reality Gem...

obviously.

It will be here soon.

Hawke was in a great mood as he thought about it. He turned off his phone, looked at Gwen sleeping peacefully beside him, turned off the light, and pulled Gwen into his arms to fall asleep as well.

the next day.

In the hotel's buffet restaurant.

A radiant Mary chattered excitedly, gesturing wildly, as she recounted the story of the five Middle Eastern hijackers on the plane the previous day to a similarly radiant Gwen.

For example, how Peter discovered it, how Peter found the air marshal without making a sound, and how the three of them subdued the five Middle Eastern robbers one by one without making a sound.

Mary is not only a good dancer, but also a very good storyteller.

At least Gwen was completely immersed in Mary's vivid and engaging story.

Hawke, who was sitting next to him, was also listening.

He had already made up his mind that he would never leave New York City unless absolutely necessary, and even if he did leave, he would take Peter with him to protect him from any unexpected events.

Let's just pretend we're burying our heads in the sand.

It's better to deceive yourself than to encounter unexpected problems.

Hawke thought so.

soon.

After having breakfast, the four of them prepared to officially begin their London trip.

Gwen's guide was very well done.

For five consecutive days, the four of them explored almost the entire city of London.

The London Eye and Big Ben.

Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey.

Gwen and Mary were having a great time every day, either visiting places or on their way to visit places, and they didn't feel tired at all.

Hawk, the only Saint Seiya in the Marvel universe.

Peter Parker, the only Spider-Man in the Marvel universe.

Both of them had extraordinary physical constitutions, but even so, Peter felt tired after three days, while Hawke was still able to manage.

So, after receiving subtle hints from the two men, Gwen and Mary discussed it and decided to make today their day off.

Oxota Restaurant.

Also known as OXO restaurant, it is located on the banks of the Thames and is known for its exquisite dining experience and unique views overlooking St. Paul's Cathedral.

Hawke and his three companions sat by the window, eating and chatting.

Gwen and Mary gazed out the window at St. Paul's Cathedral, capturing this beautiful moment on their phones.

Hawke and Peter chatted from time to time.

but……

After a woman who looked remarkably like Natalie Portman walked into the restaurant, his eyes fell on her out of the corner of his eye.

Because this woman's name is Jane Foster.

Asgard, son of Odin, and Thor's girlfriend on Earth.

finally come.

Hawke's eyes lit up.

Gwen, who was talking to Mary, seemed to notice something. She glanced at the spot where Hawke's gaze had just swept and saw Jane Foster sitting down opposite a man.

Hawke instinctively looked towards Gwen.

Just then, Gwen turned her gaze away and looked in his direction.

Eyes facing each other.

Gwen smiled slightly, said nothing, looked away, and continued chatting with Mary.

after awhile.

Jane Foster's friend and assistant, Daisy Louise, also came in from outside. After talking to Jane for a while, she turned and left.

soon.

Jane, who was trying to forget Thor and find a new life, apologized to her date today and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Hawke looked at Gwen who was standing to the side.

result……

Before he could even speak...

Gwen spoke first.
