My Marvel Superman Girlfriend.

My aunt doesn't like taking pictures, especially selfies.

This is something hope Nian knows.

It's not that my aunt is ugly or doesn't photograph well.

Xinian could confidently say that his aunt was an absolute beauty, comparable to or even surpassing the female celebrities and models on television. From the day his aunt found him on Christmas Day in 1995, in his memory, her appearance had never changed with age; she was a true ageless goddess.

"No, next time I must have my aunt take a picture with me."

"If I'm assertive... then using a cutesy approach might still work, right?"

Just as Xinian was making up his mind, the doorbell rang.

who is it?

hope Nian frowned slightly. In his memory, his aunt had never forgotten her keys before.

Just as Xinian walked from the living room to the door, before he could even look through the peephole, a photograph was slipped in through the gap under the door.

Upon seeing the photo, hope Nian paused, his expression slightly stunned.

The photograph was unusually black and white, and its pixelation and natural yellowing suggested it was an artifact from the last century. The urban wasteland background, resembling a battlefield from World War I, further corroborated this.

What shocked Xinian was...

In this quirky old-fashioned photograph, surrounded by officers and soldiers, a figure resembling his aunt appears!

Chapter 2, Childhood Sweetheart Gwen

A winter morning.

Large snowflakes fell from the sky, blanketing every corner of the metropolis. Even in the early morning when the sky was just beginning to lighten, Washington, as a world-class city, was already radiating its characteristic vitality. Students and office workers could be seen constantly moving through the streets that had just been cleared of snow.

Dudu!

A local police car slowly drove up and eventually stopped on the side of the road in the neighborhood. The door opened, and a cute blonde girl jumped out of the back seat with a schoolbag in her hand.

"Gwen, slow down, your water glass."

In the driver's seat, Officer George, dressed in a police uniform, opened the door and got out. He was holding a thermos in his hand, and looking at his beloved daughter, this big man's tone couldn't help but show some affection: "Don't you really need me to take you to school? The roads are slippery, and it's snowing."

Gwen took the water bottle and put it in her bag, then crisply declined, "No need, I have rain gear and I'm wearing non-slip boots."

"But."

Officer George was about to say something more when Gwen's eyes suddenly lit up, her cheeks flushed with joy and excitement, and she hopped around like a rabbit, excitedly waving her arms in one direction: "hope Nian, here! Here!"

"I knew it."

Officer George sighed inwardly, turned around, and sure enough, saw a familiar young figure appear at the street corner.

When Xinian heard someone calling his name, he looked up and saw the two of them. He immediately smiled and nodded in greeting, "Good morning, Gwen, Uncle George! What a coincidence to run into you again!"

Xinian was quite familiar with them.

Gwen, whose full name is Gwen Stacy, is a peer who lives in a nearby neighborhood.

As children, Shion and Gwen attended the same daycare, went through elementary and middle school, and now study at the same high school, making them childhood sweethearts with a deep bond. As for her father, he is a police officer of some prestige and power in the area, who happens to be in charge of the security of their city area. His full name is "George Stacy".

“Yes, what a coincidence.” Gwen’s eyes crinkled with laughter.

The surrounding snow was very white and sparkling, but Officer George's face was a little dark.

Is this a coincidence? Absolutely not!

It was clearly all for this kid; they deliberately timed it perfectly and bumped into him here at the exact moment.

of course.

Officer George was too busy protecting his daughter's girlish thoughts to expose them on the spot. Besides, he had investigated Xinian's family background ten years ago; she was indeed a pitiful but kind child.

"Hey! Xinian, why aren't you wearing a hat or carrying an umbrella!"

Gwen said in surprise, quickly moving closer to Xinian. Before he could reply, she had already brushed the frost off his hair and eyebrows with her hands.

"I was in a hurry to leave and forgot." hope Nian smiled nonchalantly, temporarily putting aside her chaotic thoughts.

"But remember to keep warm, what if you catch a cold?" Gwen puffed out her cheeks a little angrily, which only added to her playful and cute appearance.

Without thinking too much, she put her fluffy hat on Xinian's head and breathed warm air onto his slightly cold face. To others, this would be considered a very intimate gesture, but for the two who had grown up together, it was so commonplace that it held no special meaning.

"It's cold outside, let me take you to school," Officer George said, unable to bear it any longer.

Gwen didn't respond, but instead looked up at Xinian.

"The school isn't too far away, I'll still..."

Xinian initially wanted to refuse, but feeling Officer George's sharp gaze, she nodded in agreement: "Then thank you, Uncle George."

Seeing this, Gwen smiled and said, "Then we'll have to trouble you to give us a ride, Dad."

"You're welcome."

Officer George stood tall and proud, clearly prepared to become a tool for his beloved daughter!

A short while later, the police car started up and drove onto the main road, heading towards the high school.

In the well-heated car.

Gwen and Xinian sat together in the back seat. After getting in the car, Xinian looked at the winter street scene rushing past the window, his face and eyes occasionally looking dazed and lost in thought.

Suddenly, his hand was grasped by a gentle, soft hand. hope Nian turned to see a girl with a worried expression on her face.

Gwen asked him, "Xinian, how are you today? Are you feeling unwell? You look so preoccupied."

"Me." hope Nian didn't know how to start.

What had been weighing on his mind ever since he left home was the photograph that had been slipped into his house. Although he later opened the door to check, the mysterious person who had slipped the photograph in was nowhere to be found, leaving behind a host of strange mysteries.

Was that photo really taken during World War I? Who is the woman in the photo wearing armor exactly like his aunt?

My aunt's mother? No, World War I was almost a century ago. According to seniority, she's probably my grandmother's mother.

If we ask Gwen's father for help, we should be able to find the person who slipped the photos in, right?

hope Nian hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'm fine, I just felt a little cold."

"Then you won't be cold anymore." Gwen changed to wrapping her arms around Xinian's left arm. At this distance, they could clearly feel each other's body temperature.

Officer George, who was driving, almost lost his temper after only glancing at the rearview mirror.

Watching your own tender, white cabbage being offered to a pig, even if the pig is handsome and was raised by you, is something that probably no father in the world could tolerate!

and many more.

Officer George, with his experience, had a sudden thought. Looking at the young couple through the rearview mirror, he could see his daughter's intentions clearly, but the boy didn't seem to have the same idea!

Yes, it's even more painful for a father.

……

The police car stopped on the road in front of the middle school. When Gwen and Xinian got out of the car, they immediately attracted the attention of many students.

It was only then that Xinian noticed this.

Today, Gwen was wearing a new beige down jacket over a close-fitting handmade sweater. Her long legs were encased in white jeans, and she wore tall black boots that made her appear even taller. The sixteen-year-old's body exuded youthful energy, and coupled with her radiant blonde short hair and delicate face, she looked absolutely stunning to everyone else!

Having grown up together, Xinian was used to it.

When he saw the envious and jealous reactions of the other students, he suddenly realized that Gwen seemed to be quite popular at school.

"Gwen, please let go of my hand," Xinian said.

"No, it's warmer this way."

Gwen hummed as she hugged him even tighter, so much so that Xinian's right arm was completely enveloped in the warm, moist embrace.

Compared to the extreme softness of marshmallows, there is also an indescribable suppleness.

Xinian himself naturally had no such thought.

The students nearby, however, had red eyes and were internally screaming, "Damn it, let go of me!!!"

"If you don't let go, I'm going to be killed by their eyes." hope Nian gave a bitter smile. If eyes could kill, he would probably have died countless times by now.

"You dared to threaten a knife-wielding thug with your bare hands when you were in elementary school, are you scared now?" Gwen covered her mouth and let out a silvery laugh, finally letting go of Xinian's arm. Then, her little face belatedly turned red.

"Stop bringing up my dark past." hope Nian's lips twitched. Back then, he was a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur). Not long after watching a documentary about Captain America, he always thought he had the potential to be a superhero.

If the police hadn't arrived in time, he would probably have been reincarnated a third time by now.

Having spent sixteen years as an ordinary person, Xinian, a reincarnated individual without any system cheats, has completely come to terms with things.

Where are there so many exceptionally talented superheroes? Of the five or six billion people in the world today, only a handful, such as Captain America, Iron Man, Batman, and Superman, have truly stepped onto the stage as superheroes!

In this story, Superman is an alien (Kryptonian).

It's not that I'm afraid of trouble.

hope Nian ignored the angry students and walked into the warmer corridor of the teaching building. Looking at the girl next to him, he teased, "Of course I don't care, but I just feel that this is not good for you. Aren't you very popular? I heard you're almost running for No. 1 here."

"Where did you hear that?!" Gwen couldn't help but spit.

But in this very moment.

Gwen suddenly realized that childhood sweethearts weren't necessarily a good thing.

Sometimes, once a relationship has become established over a long period of time, it is very difficult to change it gradually.

Just as Xinian and Gwen walked down the school building corridor, in a classroom of the tenth grade, a girl wearing glasses in the last row of a corner seat stared blankly at the outside, her gaze subtly following Xinian as he moved backward down the corridor.

"Kara, what are you looking at?"

A female classmate leaned closer to the table and asked curiously.

“I wasn’t looking at anything.” Kara Danvers quickly looked away.

"Really?" The female student was skeptical. She followed Kara's gaze and saw only a clean white wall.

The thick walls blocked the outdoor corridor, preventing any view of the outside world.

Chapter 3, Touching the Extraordinary

Unable to concentrate on any of the lessons all day, Xinian hurriedly returned home as soon as school was over.
