I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 40: The Sudden Intervention of S.H.I.E.L.D.

On an ambulance.

Mrs. Helen looked anxiously at George, who was receiving wound cleaning and disinfection, and asked the doctor, "Doctor, how is George? Is he alright?"

George waved his hand: "Don't worry, it's just some bumps and scrapes. I'll go check if the kid's alright."

It's just a minor injury; it won't kill him.

On the contrary, George was more worried about Erin's situation.

Thinking of this, George decided to get up and go check on Erin's situation.

"Don't move!"

Before George could get up.

The doctor who was cleaning George's wound impatiently pressed the restless George back down.

After thoroughly cleaning and bandaging George's wounds, he said, "On the surface, they are indeed just some abrasions and bruises, but given that the patient jumped out of a speeding car, we cannot rule out the possibility of some hidden injuries that have not been discovered. I suggest that the patient come back to the hospital with us later for a full examination to be on the safe side."

"Okay, doctor, I promise he will cooperate with your arrangements."

After giving George a fierce glare, Helen said, "Don't worry, Gwen is with Erin. He seems to be doing much better than you."

Helen is right.

In fact, Erin's injuries were much less severe than George's.

After examining Erin, the doctor simply cleaned the wounds on Erin's hands and forehead, applied a pain relief patch, and that was it.

After Erin finished treating her wounds, Gwen, who was standing to the side, covered Erin with the blanket she was holding and then hugged her.

"Thank you, Erin. If it weren't for you, my dad might have..."

Gwen didn't say the last two words, but her red eyes and tearful voice revealed the fear she was still feeling.

After hearing the loud noise coming from the underground garage, Gwen and Helen, who were in the kitchen, both thought of George and Erin who had just come downstairs.

After exchanging a glance, they hurriedly put down their bowls and plates and climbed the stairs from the top floor down to the underground parking garage.

(Due to the explosion, the building's elevators experienced some malfunctions.)

As soon as they reached the underground parking garage, Helen and Gwen saw the headless corpse that had been abandoned by the spider-faced creature.

Fortunately, George and the security guards quickly found the girls who were screaming.

After meeting up with George, Gwen and the others also saw the horrific scene in the underground parking garage, and... the monster's corpse.

With her sharp mind, Gwen quickly pieced together their general experience after descending into the underground parking garage from George's fragmented words.

They also learned from George that they were able to survive the monster thanks to Erin.

(In fact, it was the high-explosive grenade that Erin had, but there were other people around at the time, so George didn't go into details. After all, from a legal point of view, it was illegal for Erin to possess a high-explosive grenade.)

Although George was an upright and undoubtedly good policeman, he clearly did not want to send Erin, who had saved his daughter and even himself, to prison over such a trivial matter.

As for the grenade, George was already prepared to help Erin keep it a secret.

amount.

Somewhat awkwardly, Erin patted Gwen on the back and said, "Actually, I should be thanking Mr. George. Speaking of that monster, it was Mr. George who dealt with it; I just lent a hand."

"Moreover, if he hadn't kindly taken it back, he wouldn't have encountered this monster."

Gwen, nestled in Erin's arms, shook her head and said, "No, if Dad hadn't wanted to take you, you wouldn't have needed to go to the underground parking garage and wouldn't have encountered that monster. But if Dad wants to drive tomorrow, he'll definitely go down to the basement again. I can't even imagine what would happen if he encountered that monster alone then."

"Gwen is right, I really should thank you for this." At this moment, George, who had finished treating his wounds, ignoring Mrs. Helen's murderous glare, limped towards Erin.

But the next second, his gaze fell on Erin's arms as he held Gwen.

In an instant, George's kind gaze turned sharp, and he glared at Erin with hostility, his eyes seeming to say something.

That's enough. How long are you going to keep holding my daughter?

"Cough cough..."

Somewhat awkwardly pushing Gwen away, Erin changed the subject, saying, "Mr. George, it seems I won't be able to go back, right?"

She glared at her daughter, whose cheeks were flushed after being pushed away by Erin.

George said irritably, "Of course, we can't go anywhere until we're certain that the monster doesn't carry a contagious virus."

"After all, no one can be sure whether that monster that escaped from some laboratory carries any terrible virus or whether it's contagious. Besides, you'll have to sit down and give a statement with me next."

As he spoke, George gave Erin a look, indicating that he wanted to speak with Erin alone.

"All right!"

Hearing this, Erin felt somewhat helpless, but still walked over.

After leading Erin to an empty police car, George whispered in Erin's ear, "Hey kid, listen, I don't care where you got that grenade, but possessing such a dangerous item is illegal. This time, I'll cover for you and say it's mine, but don't do it again."

By the end, George's gaze toward Erin had become sharp.

Under George's sharp gaze, Erin had no choice but to say, "I understand, Mr. George."

"Good to know."

Because there were too many police officers around, George couldn't say much, and could only give Erin a warning look again.

Not long after George finished explaining things to Erin.

Several modified, specially armored vehicles suddenly drove into the New York Police Department's cordon.

Then, Grant Ward, who had met Erin once before, led several fully armed combat squads, took out a document, and walked up to George Stacy, saying, "Director Stacy, I am Grant Ward from the FBI. Due to the involvement of a special case, this place will be under the control of the FBI."

George Stacy looked at Grant Ward and the others, his face darkening instantly. He said coldly, "I haven't received any notification to hand this over to the FBI."

Grant Ward smiled slightly and said confidently, "You'll receive it soon."

Before he could finish speaking, a police officer ran up to George with a cell phone in hand. "Deputy Chief Stacy, the chief is on the phone."
