Chapter 31 Professor Connors's Departure
"Thank you for your help, Miss Gwen.
In the guest area of the weekend dessert shop, Professor Connors, who had returned to his human form, looked pale and looked at Gwen with emotion: "If it weren't for your help, I might still be immersed in the desire of the beast and unable to extricate myself. "
"It was indeed my loss that I failed to recruit you into my experimental project."
"Professor, please don't say that." Gwen touched her cheek awkwardly: "This is just my luck."
"Are you lucky?" Professor Connors smiled bitterly and shook his head. If this can be considered luck, then what on earth have he been busy with for so many years.
On the afternoon when Gwen returned home, she had already prepared the serum to treat Professor Connors in advance and injected it into Professor Connors.
Fortunately, the serum did not produce any side effects. After a few days of recuperation, Professor Connors finally figured out what happened during this period.
"So what are you going to do next, Professor?" Gwen asked Professor Connors with some worry: "Although others don't know that the lizard man is you, Mr. Norman must have known it."
"So I will never go back to Norman." Professor Connors sighed: "And even if he doesn't know my identity, based on what he did, it's impossible for me to go back to the Osborne Group. Keep going."
"Next, I will probably go to my friend Dr. Otto to avoid the limelight." Professor Connors raised his eyebrows: "I heard that guy is doing well in Hammer Industries. It should be fine if I go to enjoy the autumn breeze. Big question."
"But I remember that there is no business relationship between Hammer Industries and the Osborne Group? Professor, aren't you afraid of being discovered by Mr. Norman?" Gwen asked Professor Connors curiously.
"It doesn't matter if he finds out. After all, although he knows that the lizard man is me, he has no evidence to prove it, right? Besides," Professor Connors silently placed his eyes on a newspaper on the table, with a flash of light on his face. With a hint of guilt: "I still have a reason to stay in New York."
Gwen followed Professor Connors's gaze and looked over, probably understanding what Professor Connors was talking about.
It was a newspaper published by the Daily Bugle last week, and the headline read.
"The Lizard Monster Appears!" New York Hospital for Special Surgery suffered heavy casualties! 》
Although the Daily Bugle's content and headlines have always been prone to exaggeration, there has never been any concealment of the truth.
In that incident, one person died, five were seriously injured, and 13 were slightly injured.
Among the seriously injured people, Chief Stacey should be considered the luckiest one. According to reports, the other four innocent people who were seriously injured are still lying in the intensive care unit under observation.
"Then, I would like to thank you and the store manager for taking care of me during this period." Professor Connors nodded towards Gwen and Su Heng, stood up and said goodbye to the two of them: "If there is anything in the future, If you need anything, feel free to contact me, I will be there if I can.”
"Then let me see you off." Gwen quickly stood up and escorted Professor Connors out of the dessert shop.
"Alas." Gwen stood in front of the store, looking at Professor Connors's retreating back, and a feeling of loneliness instantly surged into her heart.
"Why are young people sighing?" Su Heng, standing by the door, handed Gwen a glass of hot milk.
"I just feel that Professor Connors is so pitiful." Gwen held the milk and said with some regret: "Obviously he didn't want to hurt those people."
"No way." Su Heng shrugged: "After all, no one can tell which will come first, tomorrow or the accident. Instead of sighing here, it is better to think about what to do today."
"Huh." Gwen looked at this high-sounding guy, swallowed the hot milk in his hand, and then frowned: "It's so sweet!"
"Ah, is it sweet?" Su Heng touched his chin, took the cup from Gwen's hand, and sniffed it gently: "It seems that Gan Pai will have to apply less magic power to it next time."
"You actually used me as a test subject!" Gwen raised a brow and punched Su Heng.
Su Heng narrowly dodged Gwen's fist. Seeing her fist hitting the door and making a dent, he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat: "You girl, when did you start to become so violent?"
"I'm happy to!" Gwen patted the dust on his hands and glanced at Su Heng angrily.
Naturally, Su Heng would not know that this was all because of the teasing that Stacey and his wife made about their daughter on Thursday night, which caused someone to be completely hated by Gwen.
"Now that I have said it." Gwen squinted her eyes, looking at the deserted dessert shop with no customers at all, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind.
"Anyway, there's no business in the store today, why don't we go shopping?" Gwen suggested to Su Heng with a smile.
"What do you want to do!" Su Heng looked at Gwen's smiling gaze, and his keen intuition made him cover his wallet involuntarily.
"You couldn't have forgotten the commission you agreed on for the helper that day, right?" Gwen asked Su Heng with her hands on her hips.
"Hahaha, how could it be possible?" Su Heng laughed twice.
If Gwen hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten it.
"So." Gwen approached Su Heng: "I plan to use the money today. Do you have any objections?"
"Then can't I just give it to you?" Su Heng was about to take out his wallet.
"No!" Gwen blew a breath on his fist, waved it in front of Su Heng, and threatened: "Either you go with me, or I beat you up, and then you go with me, choose one!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go with you, okay, I'll go with you." Su Heng looked at Gwen who was pressing step by step, and raised his hands helplessly in a gesture of surrender.
"If you had agreed to it earlier, it would have been over." Gwen looked at Su Heng and raised her chin happily, pushing Su Heng: "Hurry up, hurry up, the mall will be closed if you don't go."
"Don't worry, I have to lock the door anyway, right?"
——
Just when Su Heng and Gwen were preparing to go to the mall.
In a supermarket in Times Square, New York, a thin man wearing a mask and sunglasses that covered half of his face was checking out at the checkout counter.
The cashier looked at the mysterious guy in front of him strangely, picked up the items in his shopping cart and started scanning the code.
But suddenly, the appearance of several soldiers in military uniforms and capable behavior at the entrance of the mall made the mysterious man a little panicked.
He looked at the half of the items that had not been paid for in the cash register, and quickly threw out a bank card, and said to the cashier eagerly: "I don't want the other things, check out quickly."
"But there are so many things," the cashier muttered a little dissatisfied.
"I said check out quickly!!!" The mysterious man suppressed his anger and slapped his hand heavily on the cash register. At this moment, a little green color appeared on the back of his hand.
"Okay, okay." This action obviously scared the cashier, who quickly took the bank card and checked out the items that had been scanned.
"Sir, this is your bank card." The cashier trembled and handed the bank card to the mysterious man.
"Huff, huff, huff--" The mysterious man took two deep breaths, as if calming himself down. He grabbed the bank card, took the things in the shopping bag and walked quickly towards the exit.
"Bruce Banner!" But soon, a soldier who was searching everywhere found the suspicious-looking mysterious man and shouted at him.
Dr. Banner's body stiffened, and he hurriedly continued to run towards the exit.
"It's him, chase him!" And this action just proved that the soldier's judgment was correct. He shouted to his companions around and chased after Dr. Banner.
