I Became Spider-Man's Cousin in Anime Crossover

Chapter 514 Trap

Upon hearing this, George instinctively turned his head to glance at Felicia.

Although he couldn't figure out where this Spider-Woman in Riley's suit had come from.

But ever since he discovered Gwen and Peter's identities by observing subtle clues in daily life, and then roughly guessed Riley's identity,

Sheriff George only needed a simple process of elimination to select "Felicea" as a "suspect" from among the girls who had recently had close contact with Peter, Gwen, and Riley.

As for Xiaoyu, who also spends all day with them...

Putting aside the fact that Sheriff George was unaware that the symbiote suit could also alter the user's physical form...

Judging from Felicia's calm and collected demeanor when she spoke just now, Sheriff George couldn't believe that she could have any connection whatsoever with the mischievous Jade!

Having formed a suspicion, Sheriff George turned to Felicia and asked, "It sounds like this opponent is quite troublesome? Is there anything our police force can do to help?"

"I'm sorry, this might sound a bit harsh, but please believe me, I really wasn't targeting the police..."

Upon hearing this, Felicia waved her hands repeatedly, and fearing that Sheriff George might misunderstand, she frantically layered armor on herself before cautiously responding.

"If the opponent is truly a master of imitation, then simply having more people won't solve the problem. Therefore, police involvement won't help our operation; it will only distract us."

George paused for a second. Although he wanted to refute, he could only nod helplessly when he thought of Spider-Man's powerful stats and his agile skills that even bullets could hardly hit.

He then spoke again, continuing earnestly.

"I understand. I will continue to lead the team and be ready to support you from the outside. But you must also remember that safety comes first during the operation... not just for the hostages, but also for your own safety. If things go wrong, evacuate immediately."

"clear."

Peter turned around, ready to signal Gwen and Felicia to move, only to find that Gwen had somehow hidden behind him, half of her body concealed in his shadow.

George noticed it too.

As a father, he couldn't help but glance at Gwen one more time.

But in the end, he said nothing.

He simply sighed softly, turned around, and waved his hand with his back to the three of them.

"Go ahead. Be careful, and remember to signal if you encounter any danger. I'll lead my men in immediately."

Gwen peeked half her head out from behind Peter, looking at her father's back, and suddenly felt a lump in her throat.

My father used to be so proud. He even had a heated argument with Peter at the dinner table about whether Spider-Man should exist, and in the end, neither of them would give in.

But now, with the increasing number of superpowered crimes, his father, who used to be so defiant, has started to willingly play the role of a "supporting actor," just like Sheriff Black.

"Let's go, don't get too emotional yet, there are still hostages waiting for us to rescue."

It was at this moment that Felicia mistakenly believed that Gwen, like Riley and Peter, had revealed her true identity to Sheriff George. And naturally, she misinterpreted Gwen's behavior at this moment as a sign of being "moved" by Sheriff George's "trust."

He then tugged at her arm, lowered his voice, and kindly reminded her.

Upon hearing this, Gwen took a deep breath and nodded.

The next second, three figures simultaneously shot out spider silk, swinging towards the bank's main entrance.

Then, relying on their immense brute force, measured in tons, they easily tore apart the spiderwebs blocking their way and slowly climbed into the bank through the ceiling.

At this moment, an eerie silence reigns inside the bank.

This made Peter frown, becoming even more convinced that Sheriff George's concerns were not unfounded.

After all, logically speaking, after such a long bank robbery, the hostages should be in a state of extreme fear. No matter how hard they try to restrain themselves, there should at least be cries and pleas for mercy.

But in fact, the dozens of people squatting in the corner—judging from their attire, some were bank employees and others were customers—were unusually quiet.

It wasn't the kind of silence born of extreme fear, where one dared not make a sound; rather, it was a silence devoid of awareness.

It was at this moment that Peter's spider-sense twitched slightly.

But the warning wasn't strong enough for Peter to pinpoint the source of the crisis.

"Watch out for the hostages," he whispered to Gwen and Felicia, who landed shortly afterward.

Gwen nodded. Her silver and black Ghost Spider suit stood out under the bank lobby lights, and she landed almost silently.

Felicia was the last to enter, her slender figure encased in a black symbiote suit, her long golden hair cascading down from the edge of her mask. She landed as silently as a true black cat.

"What about the two imposters?" she asked.

Peter pointed to the depths of the bank.

One of the guys in the classic red and blue uniform—the one who had been standing so steadily outside—was now standing motionless behind the counter. The other guy, in black and responsible for giving instructions, was nowhere to be found.

"They split up?" Gwen frowned.

"Or a trap?" Felicia added.

Peter did not answer.

His spider-sense was throbbing, but strangely, the direction of danger was unclear—it seemed to be in all directions, yet also seemed to be nowhere at all.

"Whether it's a trap or not, save them first." He made the decision. "Gwen, you go left, I'll go right. Felicia, you cover, watch out for the one who disappeared."

"clear."

Just as the three were about to make their move, the "hostages" crouching in the corner suddenly moved.

It wasn't running away, but rather—standing up.

A dozen bank employees and customers stood up in unison, all wearing the same eerie smiles, and surrounded the three of them.

"What's going on?" Peter was stunned.

The next second, those people's faces began to twist and deform.

It's not about becoming a monster, but about becoming—the same face.

Peter's face.

A dozen or so faces bearing the same sinister grin appeared on Peter's as they surrounded him from all directions. The scene was so bizarre that even Peter himself felt a chill run down his spine.

"Watch out! This guy can change his appearance at will!"

Upon seeing this, Gwen immediately blurted out, sharing with Peter and Felicia the abilities she had discovered about her opponent.

"These people, can all do this? Could they be escaped members of the Skrull radical faction?" Felicia narrowed her eyes. "No, some are real, some are fake... Watch out! They're about to attack—!"
