Chapter 1183 Showdown
"Starlight, you really need to think it over carefully. The board has voted and is just waiting for your approval."
Stan Edgar was ready to leave when Gwen Stacy said, "Okay, I agree to be the captain."
The countdown for her choice was almost over, and she didn't have much time to think about it.
According to her understanding of Starlight, she thought that if Starlight herself were here, she would probably choose to agree.
Although this would provoke the hostility of the Homelanders, they were opponents in themselves, and they would have to deal with the Homelanders later, so they couldn't care less.
Gwen Stacy couldn't play the undercover backstabbing drama, so it was more suitable for her to be simple and direct.
Stan Edgar smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, Starlight, I am looking forward to what new achievements your seven-member team will make under your leadership."
In fact, these were just some meaningless polite words. Gwen knew very well that the other party did this entirely for public relations.
Looking at himself now, no, it should be that Starlight’s popularity and image are very good and positive, so he tried to use this to whitewash Vought Company. This is the real reason why he wants Starlight to become the so-called co-captain.
As for the real power mentioned earlier, making the world succumb to one’s will, etc., it’s all bullshit.
It’s just a trick to fool people. Although Gwen is young, she can still see this as an outsider.
But Starlight in the original timeline might be fooled.
After leaving the meeting room, she went to find Queen Maeve to continue the side quest.
This side quest is Gwen’s biggest headache now. She is very smart and has noticed that Queen Maeve has seen through her "ulterior motives" and knows that the other party may be playing tricks on her.
But there is no way. Things have come to this point. You can’t give up halfway, right?羖
"Well, I found a nice restaurant tonight. Let's go check it out. I heard that steak there is very good." Gwen tried her best to recall the routines that boys used to pursue girls in school, and then used them on Queen Maeve in a realistic way.
However, her level was naturally not enough in front of the battle-hardened Queen Maeve, and she just felt like a silly fool.
Queen Maeve was also more and more curious about what "Starlight" was planning in front of her, so she smiled and said in a cooperative manner: "Okay, it happens that I have nothing to do tonight."
The two agreed on a time and place, and then chatted awkwardly for a while before saying goodbye to each other.
They were actually quite busy. Starlight's popularity peaked, and Water Company treated her as the latest top star and arranged many activities. She was very busy.
Although Queen Maeve was a little free, she also had a lot of things to do.
Soon the night fell. When the agreed time came, Starlight took the initiative to drive Queen Maeve to the restaurant. The atmosphere on the road was still very awkward, and Gwen really couldn't act like a lesbian.羖
Queen Maeve wanted to cooperate but couldn't, she shook her head helplessly and said: "You know, you are actually a p, but you have to treat yourself as a t, which is very awkward."
"Uh...what do you mean?" Gwen was confused.
Queen Maeve rolled her eyes, you don't know anything, why are you acting in front of me? Simply asked directly: "Okay, let's end this boring game. Starlight, what are you going to do?
Don't fool me with the lame excuse before. If you are really...a lesbian, you should know that there will be special feelings between lesbians. In short, you didn't give me any feelings, and your acting skills are terrible."
Queen Maeve's straightforward showdown made Gwen feel more and more embarrassed. How can she explain it?
The system's affairs must not be exposed, otherwise her identity will be exposed, the mission will fail, and she will not be able to get the redemption paper...
After thinking hard for a long time, Gwen really couldn't think of how to explain it. She shook her head with a bitter face and said, "I, I just want to be friends with you. Really, I promise, there is absolutely no bad intention!" 羖
"If it were before, Starlight, I would believe what you said." Queen Maeve crossed her arms, looked at her calmly, and said in a deep voice: "But now I'm not sure. There is something wrong with you. I can see it with my eyes."
After that, she snapped her fingers and added: "In addition, I really can't pretend to be blind. It's too difficult, just like you can't pretend to be a lesbian at all."
Gwen Stacy sighed in her heart, and couldn't help complaining about this weird mission again. What should she do now?
It's a deadlock!
At this time, the car also drove to the restaurant where they agreed. Gwen Stacy looked out of the window and immediately stepped on the brakes.
"Huey! He seems..."
"Where?" Queen Maeve asked with a raised eyebrow, while also looking out following Gwen's gaze.
Sure enough, she also saw Huey in an alley not far away.
Huey Campbell staggered out of the alley, pacing back and forth with great hesitation, and then turned back. Not long after, he supported a woman who hung her head and seemed unconscious and walked out of the alley.
"What is he doing? Picking up corpses? Wait, I remember that woman should be his boss, right?"
Although Queen Maeve did not have the super vision of her countrymen, her eyesight was also very good. After only one or two glances, she recognized that the woman Huey supported was Victoria Newman.
Gwen also noticed this and thought it was really a coincidence. Huey probably had an appointment with Newman to eat at this restaurant, and they bumped into each other.
Her mission should be over, but don't let Huey be implicated.
She quickly covered up and said, "Uh... I heard from Huey that he had a date with Newman, and they had a good relationship. Newman must have been drunk, and Huey sent her home."
"You are not right, very wrong." Queen Maeve looked at Huey Campbell with a strange face, "Both of you are not right. You have been separated for such a short time, and you are looking for new targets again?"
She didn't just know Xingguang and Huey, and she had dealt with them before. Because of this, she felt that Xingguang and Huey in front of her were very problematic.
Gwen was even more helpless. This was another difficult question to explain. Suddenly, she had an idea and changed the subject: "Maeve, how much do you know about the soldier boy?"
Queen Maeve raised her eyebrows: "Wait, I have already given this information to Butcher... I understand, you approached me to get information about the soldier boy?"
Gwen nodded: "Yes, that's it! Maeve, let's go to your house, it's late now, let's talk about this soldier boy!"
Queen Maeve laughed dumbly: "To be honest, you give me the feeling of a hot-tempered young man. Well, it's worth talking about that person."
