American Comics: The Girl Next Door is Spider-Gwen

"Ms. Morse."

Ye Li put away the playing cards again. "Tell me your real name."

"What do you mean?"

Barbara's heart skipped a beat, but she maintained a calm expression. "My name is Hill, Hill Morse. My grandmother gave me this name."

==

Ye Li was speechless.

You're using this name to impersonate someone. Does Hill know? There must be some personal grudge between you two.

"This was the agreed bet."

"The loser must answer one question honestly."

"You were the one who proposed it, Ms. Morse."

Ye Li straightened his slightly wrinkled sleeve. "Since you're unwilling to honor the bet, the game ends here."

Barbara was conflicted.

Damn it, what's going on?

Logically, even a professional psychologist shouldn't be able to see through her disguise.

Why did she feel as if this man could see right through her?

Barbara didn't know.

Not to mention, Ye Li had already recognized her.

His enhanced super-spider sense even had a lie-detection feature.

With the addition of the special electrotherapy he accidentally used at Cindy's house, Ye Li felt he could even become a top-tier psychological therapist.

"Alright..."

Agent Barbara's decisiveness told her to cut her losses. "My real name is Barbara Morse."

Since the name was already under suspicion, she might as well reveal her real name. Adaptability was key!

Although there was a risk of mission failure, as long as she chose her words carefully, it was also an opportunity to restore trust!

Besides, even if the mission failed, it wouldn't be a big deal.

S.H.I.E.L.D. wasn't a cold-blooded organization that executed agents for failing missions.

However, to her surprise.

When she revealed her real name.

Ye Li didn't question why she hid it; instead, he nodded and moved past it. "Good. You said you wanted to join the club. I welcome you."

Even if Mockingbird Barbara was dealt with, next time, maybe it'd be someone like Black Widow.

So Ye Li agreed to Barbara joining and decided to properly train this S.H.I.E.L.D. agent in the future.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Big news!"

Ned shouted at this moment.

"Latest forum news: Flash Thompson got thoroughly humiliated by the Lizard!"

As Peter's best friend, Ned couldn't help but gloat at Thompson's misery.

Hearing this, Ye Li fiddled with something nearby, and the club's large screen displayed the forum content.

There were many newly uploaded videos from various angles, clearly showing Thompson's embarrassing state.

It had to be said, New Yorkers were enthusiastic spectators, even live-streaming during an encounter with the Lizard.

Below were various comments, mostly from students at Midtown High School.

After all, they had firsthand knowledge of the situation and knew what happened.

Random student: [Didn't expect Thompson to be such a coward. Such a big guy, groveling on the ground like a dog.]

Football fan: [Begging the Lizard to kill his girlfriend? Not a man at all. Can't believe I used to be a fan!]

Spider-Man fan: [Ghost Spider showed up, and the Lizard immediately backed off! Who still thinks Lady Knight is stronger than Ghost Spider? Step forward!]

[Liz, is the Lizard's tail that tasty? You really are a tramp!] This one was probably posted by a classmate who didn't get along with Liz.

Ned, seeing this comment, grinned like a creep, grabbed a remote from the bar, and switched the video.

In the video, the tip of the Lizard's tail was pulled out of Liz's throat, leaving behind a horrifying mess.

A few girls watching shivered involuntarily.

Even Barbara raised an eyebrow at the sight, clearly no stranger to such scenes.

Ned clicked his tongue and sighed, "What a pity, what a pity Liz actually got 'broken in' by the Lizard's tail."

Mary Jane frowned. "Ned, can you stop replaying that scene? Be mindful of the club's image."

Skye, meanwhile, couldn't help but inch closer to Ye Li.

Taking the opportunity, Ye Li placed his hand on her shoulder, slowly sliding it to her smooth neck, whispering softly, "Do you want to give it a try~"

Gwen was already quite skilled.

He hadn't tried things with Skye yet.

Judging by her passionate kisses, no less intense than Gwen's, it was likely to be amazing...

"Well..."

Skye gave him a pitiful look, shrinking her neck a bit, clearly hesitant.

But seeing Ye Li's expectant expression.

After a moment of hesitation.

She swallowed nervously and whispered, "Maybe... okay..."

Ye Li saw a flicker of desire in Skye's eyes, her tongue briefly gliding across her lips. He knew she was moved.

He pulled her up and instructed the others, "I'm taking Skye to the training room to deal with something."

"Jane, take care of Barbara. I think she has the potential to become a great club member."

Mary Jane smiled and winked knowingly. "Leave it to me. You and Skye go handle your business~"

Ned perked up and leaned over, saying, "Hey! The vice president is gone. Let's play, Jane. Hehe I'm a card game master!"

Mary Jane maintained her smile. "Get lost."

She still held a grudge from the last time Ned yelled at her over a broken phone, so she naturally wasn't going to be nice to him.
