There are many episodes of the Bible told somewhat differently. The two passages I gave you are correct, and you have not dealt with that. You only have two choices: either (a) your position is false, or (b) the Gospels are false.
When you have dealt with that, come back. Not until.

All four gospels say that Peter would deny Christ three times. Why didn't Christ say that he would deny him six times? Did Christ get the number wrong or did all four all four of the gospels get it wrong?

The two passages I gave you are correct All synoptic accounts of the second denial are correct. At least one man and at least one woman accused Peter according to them. As St. John writes "They said therefore to him: Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said: I am not" (John 18:25). "They" means several people.
What is incorrect is the idea that somehow the Holy Evangelists wrote in riddles, like a detective story, and forgot to resolve it for us.
