Matt practiced muscle relaxation for himself, otherwise when he woke up, the sore muscles would make him unable to walk. Many people mistakenly believe that just warming up before exercise is enough, but ignore that the body also needs maintenance after exercise. .
Matt is not a newbie hero, he knows what to do to maintain combat effectiveness.
Even in the depressing days, he persisted in training hard.
In the bitterly cold winter, he practiced martial arts and meditated in the snow, and did not stop until the ice cubes turned into snow water.
Daredevil does not have advanced high technology or cool magic, but only a righteous heart and a belief in the pursuit of justice.
"How's Hell's Kitchen going?" Peter said.
Matt said while rubbing his shoulders: "Those bastards have curbed their criminal activities recently, and they should have been like this for a while."
In view of the intensity of Sol's beatings, many gang members were not sent to prison, but directly to the intensive care unit of the hospital.
This allowed them to temporarily escape legal sanctions, but the price was broken arms and legs. I wonder if they would think it was worth it.
Peter said, "But Hell's Kitchen shouldn't get any better, right?"
After Matt was silent for a while, he said: "Yes, the people there are still living in poverty and misery. When I was on night patrol last time, I overheard a couple arguing about their children. They I don’t want my children to go to school in Hell’s Kitchen and not be able to leave this hellish place.”
People living in Hell's Kitchen are not happy that there are no drunken gangsters on the streets now, but feel a little disappointed. People who have paid protection fees are even more worried about losing their asylum and worrying about having to pay protection fees again if a new gang takes charge.
Matt said somewhat sullenly: "Some people are even looking for new gangsters to move into Hell's Kitchen to take the vacant positions."
In anger, he slammed his fist down on the ring, leaving a medium-sized muddy fist mark with sweat.
Peter said: "It's just labor pains. Because of long-term suppression and control, people in Hell's Kitchen all suffer from Stockholm syndrome towards gangsters."
Stockholm syndrome refers to a condition in which the victim becomes emotionally dependent on the perpetrator.
Similar situations usually occur between kidnappers and hostages. This is the first time Matt has heard the theory that residents in the entire area are suffering from this disease, but I have to say that Peter's description is very appropriate.
So Matt asked Peter how to treat the disease, and Peter said he didn't know.
"How could you not know?" Matt said seriously.
"I don't know, I haven't thought about this kind of thing." Peter spread his hands and said helplessly: "When the hostages are taken hostage by the kidnappers, all I think about is how to kill the kidnappers and rescue the hostages. As for the emotional problems the hostages will have, I still want to keep them. Let the hostages deal with it themselves.”
"We can't control that much, Matt. Superheroes are not omnipotent." Peter said seriously.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This does not mean taking all the responsibilities on yourself, but doing what you feel is right within your capabilities.
Peter doesn't think he can take care of everyone's emotions, nor does he have the responsibility to do so.
He's just using his spider powers to do the right thing.
Matt also realized that he had just fallen into the misunderstanding of his thinking, but he quickly adjusted back. After all, he was no longer the young boy who could let words influence his beliefs.
His belief in punishing evil and promoting good has been tempered extremely hard in countless nights and countless battles.
"You're right, man." Matt laughed suddenly: "Whether it is as a friend or as a hero, you are the outstanding one."
Matt suddenly stood up, punched the air, and said, "I think my performance just now was not good enough. Can I do it again?"
After understanding the idea, Matt was eager to try and couldn't wait to exert more strength.
Peter smiled bitterly and said: "Of course. You can use your short stick, in that case I will use the spider web"
Peter also kinda wants to see the power of Matt Murdock's bludgeoning weapon. He had already seen Matt's fists and kicks, but he had yet to experience his unpredictable short stick.
In the comics, his short stick has a rope connected in the middle, which can be used as a hook lock under certain circumstances.
Matt reached out and pulled Peter up from the ground: "I allow it. Use all your unique skills and let me see what Spider-Man can do."
Peter smiled and said: "You should be careful, I can do everything a spider can do."
Small fights are not enough for them, so they have to get serious next time.
There was only one light above the head, and the light shrouded the arena like a yellow mist, surrounded by dense darkness.
In the silent space, the heartbeat and breathing became more and more obvious, and Peter and Matt stood facing each other.
Suddenly they rushed towards each other, shaking their powerful fists at the same time.
The next day, thanks to his super self-healing ability, Peter didn't go to work with a sore back, but Matt might have needed more rest.
As soon as he returned to the company, Professor Connors said: "Boss, there are guests waiting for you in the office."
"who?"
"I'm afraid you won't be too pleased to hear his name," said Professor Connors.
Peter guessed that it might be Stark coming over with his good wine, or maybe Deadpool knocking on the office window.
"It's Doctor Octopus."
Beyond Peter's expectation, when he opened the door to the office, it was that familiar voice.
Doctor Octopus's four mechanical tentacles supported his feet off the ground, and his voice was like a slowly approaching train in the old days: "Peter, long time no see."
Doctor Octopus's real name is Otto Octavius. During a nuclear test, his nerves were combined with the four mechanical tentacles he used to lift objects. He can control them at will with his thoughts.
Peter was a little touched. This former enemy, a somewhat tragic villain, is now no match for the power of time. He is old.
Peter said calmly: "Long time no see, Doctor."
