To put it simply, Lock's job is that of a 'Doctor' who solves urban basic health problems.
To put it broadly, this is work that benefits all of humanity!
After all, which city in which country in the world doesn't have pests, and which country hasn't been troubled by pest problems?
So, Chief Stacy immediately felt a sense of awe toward Lock.
This was a profession that was not inferior to his own as a police officer; it was even a greater profession!
He originally thought Lock was the coldest person in the Parker Family, but he didn't expect Lock to be the greatest person in the Parker Family!
Chief Stacy, who had originally come to find fault with Lock, now found that the more he looked at Lock, the more pleasing he became to the eye.
He even extended an invitation to Lock, saying, "Lock—oh, no, Dr. Parker—since you've arrived so early, you surely haven't had breakfast yet. Why don't we have some together?"
Lock rubbed his empty stomach. Because Peter had disturbed his normal routine, he had left the house before Mei could make breakfast, so he really hadn't eaten yet.
Therefore, he didn't bother with hypocritical pleasantries and nodded with a smile:
"Then I shall accept your kind offer, Chief Stacy. However, please don't call me Doctor. I have only made a small, insignificant contribution to cleaning up the Earth's environment. You can just call me Lock or Parker."
As a police officer, Chief Stacy was not someone who liked the hypocritical social maneuvers of politicians and businessmen. Thus, his favorable impression of Lock, who accepted directly, increased even more.
He reached out and patted Lock's shoulder with satisfaction, laughing, "Alright, then I'll call you Lock. Lock, come on in. You'll love the Mexican-style pancakes Helen makes."
Helen Stacy was Gwen's mother.
So, by the time Gwen had finished changing her clothes as quickly as possible, applied light makeup, and walked out of her room, she saw Lock in the dining room, eating breakfast with her father and chatting happily.
Gwen:?
She had only been inside for less than ten minutes; what had happened?
Why was Lock already inside her house, and why was he chatting with her somewhat 'rigid' police chief father as harmoniously as if they were brothers of the same generation?
Was she actually still asleep and dreaming?
"Hey, Gwen, what are you standing there for? Lock said he invited you to lunch last week. It's one thing that you didn't wake up early to prepare, but how could you leave him outside the door?"
Seeing Gwen come out, Chief Stacy quickly called her over and criticized her a bit while he was at it.
Gwen's mouth couldn't help but twitch as she listened.
To think she was worried before that her father wouldn't like Lock... Now it seemed her father liked Lock even more than she did... But then again, Lock was so excellent, who wouldn't like him!
Therefore, after 0.1 seconds of being speechless, Gwen happily sat down right next to Lock.
If Gwen were sitting so intimately next to any other man, as a doting father, Chief Stacy would inevitably feel some displeasure.
But this person was Lock, who, after his scrutiny, appeared absolutely perfect from every angle. So that was different...
Thus, after Gwen sat down, Chief Stacy tactfully put down his milk glass, picked up his police cap from the table, placed it on his head, and said to Lock:
"Lock, you and Gwen take your time eating. I have a case involving two monsters who caused a ruckus on the Manhattan Bridge last night. The Mayor wants me to root those two out as soon as possible, so I have to head to the station now."
Lock stood up and nodded calmly: "Alright, Chief Stacy. Stay safe."
When Chief Stacy went out, Gwen's mother, Mrs. Stacy, also took their two young sons and went with them to take them to school. Suddenly, only Gwen and Lock were left in the entire house.
With no one else around, Gwen could no longer suppress the joy in her heart and clung to Lock like a sloth.
"Lock, why did you come over on your own initiative today? You haven't sent me any messages these past few days. I thought you had already forgotten about our date today!"
Smelling the fragrance from Gwen's blonde hair, Lock didn't restrain himself this time. Instead, he wrapped his arm around Gwen's slender waist—which he could almost encircle with one hand—and moved her from her seat onto his lap.
This made Gwen's heart race again, and a rosy flush spread across her fair neck.
Compared to Lock's almost blunt date invitation last time, this actual physical intimacy undoubtedly confirmed that Lock's motives toward her were indeed impure!
This was... wonderful!
The man she had been chasing for two years was finally hers!
"You..."
Gwen snuggled into Lock's warm embrace. Just as she wanted to confirm one last time if Lock felt that way about her, she looked up, and her red lips were blocked by Lock's downward tilt.
Looking at Lock right in front of her, Gwen felt like she didn't need to ask anymore.
Because Lock had already used actions to explain everything...
However, why did Lock still have a stick in his pocket? For self-defense?
It was really quite uncomfortable... Wait! That's not right!!!
Finally, Gwen walked out the door with Lock, feeling quite full, her eyes glaring at Lock with a hint of resentment.
Don't misunderstand, what was in Gwen's mouth was breakfast... As for what breakfast was, that's none of your business...
After swallowing the milk in her mouth, Gwen's mood became cheerful again: "Lock, it's still early before lunch. Where are you planning to take me to play?"
To this, Lock gave a mysterious smile: "Of course I'm taking you to a place that is both familiar and fun!"
Hearing this, Gwen instantly became full of anticipation!
A familiar yet fun place... could he be talking about... his bedroom?
After all, the only familiar place she could think of involving Lock was Lock's home.
As for where the fun was... Gwen's face became increasingly flushed.
Ten minutes later...
Gwen looked at the familiar Automobile City in front of her and felt her fists clench!
"So this is the familiar and fun place you were talking about?!"
Lock shrugged and smiled: "Yeah, you accompanied me here last time. Isn't it familiar enough?"
"And isn't picking out your own beloved car fun?"
Gwen rolled her eyes at Lock: "Do you think picking out a car is a romantic thing for a girl?"
Lock smiled and pulled out two amusement park tickets he bought yesterday from his pocket: "Then, as compensation, how about I not only treat you to a meal today but also take you to the amusement park?"
"Let's go! We're picking a car right now!" Seeing the amusement park tickets, Gwen's face changed instantly, and she was once again full of energy!
She even took the initiative to grab Lock's hand, like a soldier about to charge into battle, and rushed into Automobile City aggressively.
She, the warrior Gwen Stacy, was going to defeat the Great Car Demon at the fastest speed today and head to the Dreamy Amusement Park Castle with her beloved Princess Lock!
