Chapter 62
Chapter 62
Human beings, as social animals, always have a tendency to converge. In a group of any kind of environment, they will inevitably be changed by this environment, and now Stark has a deep understanding of this.
Peter and his childhood sweetheart Gwen are sweet every day. After Gwen officially established a relationship with Peter some time ago, the two of them started dating two or three times a week.
Spider-Man, who hasn't progressed to the part of meeting his father-in-law, has been bubbling with happiness recently. He can hear him talking excitedly every day, what little gifts he received from his girlfriend, or which restaurant he went to eat. The dishes are especially delicious.
Stark had to admit that even if the details Peter said were naive, the restaurant they went to date was a roadside stall that a rich man like Stark would never go to, but every time he heard Peter's description, Stark would never stop. Can fully feel his happiness.
In addition to Peter, the story of Schiller and his wife has become richer and richer in details and more poignant after the mouth of the little clever ghost Scranch.
Originally, it was only the information that Coulson got during his routine investigation of Strange, but how could he keep this kind of gossip in his heart alone? I heard a very real and detailed version.
Strange's short sentences were enriched by the genius agent Coulson into a story, and when this story reached the ears of Natasha and Nick, Natasha was a woman, and she was very interested in this kind of romantic love. The story has a lot of interest, and the emotional brain that belongs to a woman allows her to add more romantic details of her own brain to this story, making it more real.
And Nick, who's a skeptic, knows this fact, and he's bound to investigate.
In this investigation, he really found some clues.
He found out that the medical fees paid by S.H.I.E.L.D. and Stark to Schiller originally only stayed in an American account of Schiller, but just recently, the large sum of money was transferred by him to an international company in Switzerland. In the account, Nick could not check the whereabouts of the money afterward. He guessed that the money might have been used by Schiller to keep his wife alive.
Some time ago, Schiller told everyone that he was going to leave for a while. In fact, at that time, Nick wanted to track his whereabouts, but the agents of SHIELD cast the net like a fish, and they still couldn't touch it. On his trail, Nick thinks that Schiller may have used his magical powers to go to his wife.
Nick has always believed that in order to be a good agent, in addition to careful logical thinking ability, you must also have the ability to associate and diverge. In many cases, inadvertent inspiration may bring unexpected changes to actions.
Therefore, these various factors are superimposed, and Nick is sure that this matter is inseparable.
He believes that Schiller's wife may not be American, because he could not find such a disappeared woman in the file. Schiller may have met her during a study tour. After they fell in love and got married, this lady may Suffering from a disease that is temporarily incurable, but will continue to deteriorate, combined with the low-temperature technology mentioned by Schiller in Strange before, Nick speculates that Schiller is likely to have mastered a kind of permafrost. technology, to seal his wife, prevent the disease from getting worse, and has been looking for a means of treatment.
What Nick sees from this story is not just poignant love, he has always wanted to win Schiller completely to SHIELD, to work for them, if SHIELD can do something about the treatment of his wife. Achievement, Nick believes that soon, S.H.I.E.L.D. will have another powerful arm.
Therefore, Nick also came to the information of various neuroscientists, intending to see who is qualified to solve this problem.
If Schiller hears Nick's heart and knows the story of his brain, he must applaud the king of secret agents. Isn't this the love story of Victor the Freeze and his wife?
Frozen's story is good, the next second is mine.
Later, when the story reached Stark's ears, he naturally thought that Nick must have solid evidence, so he also believed that Schiller was indeed trying to find a cure because of his wife for many years.
This fact has been quite shocking to Stark. After all, in the years he was growing up, most of the people he met were bad people who were almost like his father.
And the more fatal blow came from Captain America Steve.
A few days ago, Stark found that Steve didn’t run in the morning, so he asked Schiller what was wrong. Schiller said that Steve was in a bad mood recently.
Stark was happy, Captain America was in a bad mood, and Iron Man was in a good mood.
When Steve came back, Stark wanted to laugh at him fiercely, but Steve looked very haggard at the time, Schiller also had a serious and sad face, and Peter basically didn't dare to come out.
In these days without Pepper, Stark wandered around, and he finally could read a little bit of air. Seeing that everyone was like this, he also held back his words.
Afterwards, he went to Schiller to ask what was wrong with Steve, but Schiller just shook his head and let him ask Steve himself.
How could Iron Man take the initiative to ask Captain America?
However, Stark's excessive curiosity eventually led him to Steve.
Then he learned from Steve's mouth, his and Peggy's romantic love story that spanned a century.
The weak and helpless recruit who just entered the military camp met a heroic and caring female officer. After the recruit became the famous Captain America, they were born and died together, and they were each other's most perfect soulmates. , even after a century, Captain America is still determined, only Peggy is his perfect dance partner.
But the ending of this romantic story is deplorable. A few days ago, Steve saw Peggy lying in a hospital bed, who was aging, and learned from the doctor that she might die soon.
He saw that the photo of him that Peggy kept was not the strong Captain America after being injected with the serum, but the timid and bullied Steve who had just entered the boot camp. After being transformed into Captain America, It's been a long time since Steve cried so hard that he almost passed out.
He was really about to collapse, and he even rushed to Nick's office a little irrationally, asking him if there was any special serum that could keep Peggy alive.
But unfortunately, in the end, Steve could only accept this ending with great pain and helplessness.
This story shocked Stark even more, because in Steve's mouth, his father Howard was a participant in the whole story, and he and Peggy were once friends.
This can't help but make Stark start thinking, is he a bit too different?
When it comes to women, Stark certainly has no shortage of young magazine models, party girls, or Hollywood actresses. Stark changes one every day, sometimes even several a day.
But when it comes to falling in love, when it comes to true love, Stark thought about it and found that his head was empty.
Growing up, he didn't have a love story that he could come up with that resonated with his friends in the same way.
first love?It seems to be a bit of an impression, Stark tried hard to think about it, but he still has to admit that he almost forgot.
Peter and Gwen have sex with each other, Schiller and his wife are parting ways, and Captain America and Peggy are still alive.
And Stark, surrounded by this group of people, couldn't help but start thinking hard with his genius brain, why is he different?
"Recently, Pepper looks at me a bit strangely." In the cafeteria of S.H.I.E.L.D., Stark, Schiller and Peter sat at a table to eat. After Schiller threw Stark out, Pepper could only foster him Stark was very reluctant to go to S.H.I.E.L.D., but if he didn't go, he would have to sleep on the street.
"Strange? What kind of strange?"
"I'm not kidding, I'm serious, I can't tell what she looked in, she was a little worried, a little relieved, but also a little sympathetic."
"My job should really be entrusted to you. Can you see so many things in your eyes?"
Stark waved his hand perfunctorily and said, "Please, I have met eight hundred women if not one thousand. You can tell what they are thinking from their eyes. Tell me, what happened to Pepper?"
"That depends on what's going on with you recently. What's the matter with you recently?"
"What's the matter with me, I'm fine."
Schiller put down the fork in his hand and snapped his fingers, and said, "Jarvis, can you analyze the difference in your master's behavior trajectory recently?"
Jarvis beeped twice, and Stark put his face in his hands, waiting for his smart butler to answer.
"According to the analysis, you have rejected 18 invitations from the opposite sex within a week, and this is the only thing that is different from the usual behavior pattern..."
In an instant, Stark saw almost exactly the same expression on Schiller's face as Pepper.
"Damn it, I'm not..."
"You don't need to explain, um... If you have figured it out, congratulations, if you are unable to do what you want..."
Schiller shrugged and said: "...then it can only be said that it deserves it."
Schiller knows that in the comics, this guy is a super stallion, not to mention his first love, Meredith, who was beaten by a mandarin duck, and Bane, who has a bad heart, Gamora, Captain Marvel, Wasp, Spider Woman, The female hulks all fall asleep after teasing, and run away after sleeping.
"I'm not..." Stark put down the tableware in his hand, put his hands on the table and said, "I don't think they have anything good..."
"Then who talked about the beauty of a yacht?"
"Okay." Stark said like a deflated ball: "I have never talked about a decent relationship. You are always in my ears, talking about love, love, those romantic stories."
"I thought they were everything, sexy, charming, fleeting and passionate, what's wrong with that?"
"But Peter actually said yesterday that his girlfriend would like to hear how he made those machines, and the two of them talked about it all afternoon!"
"Actually, we haven't talked enough. The next day we went to the exhibition hall again, which is the one in Stark Industries. The machines there are so cool that we didn't feel tired after walking around all day..."
With Stark's murderous eyes, Peter silently stuffed his mouth with a sandwich.
"... Well, no one has ever been willing to listen to me talking about these things. They are more willing to listen to all kinds of Hollywood information, gossip about famous brand shows, and new clothes in winter and spring. How could anyone be willing to listen to me explain how to make machines Armored?"
"But you really want to talk about this, right? In your opinion, mechas are actually much better looking than those famous brand coats."
Stark pursed his lips, he looked very much like a lemon now.
"But it's useless for you to come to us and talk about it. You have to go to Pepper."
"But she doesn't understand these mechs either, and she's already busy."
"It's still the same sentence, as long as you say it, she will definitely be willing to listen."
