Chapter 520 Schiller's Daily Life in Hospital (Part 1)
The rich green swayed in the dense rain, and mist rose between the trees, as if they had grown into towering trees overnight, piercing into the misty waves of clouds. The raindrops hit the glass like a slightly dissolved painting.
"Da, da, da..."
The metronome at the bedside made regular sounds, and the breathing gradually got rid of this rhythm. The chest began to rise and fall faster and faster. With a "Zeng", Schiller sat up from the bed.
He used the bottom of his palm to support his drowsy head, turned his body, sat on the bedside, and saw his face reflected on the white floor tiles.
He exhaled and felt a little dry in the mouth, so he habitually reached out to press the call bell by the bed. After he did this action, he was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something.
The call bell on the bedside table lit up, and it was Stark in the iron suit who walked in. After seeing him, Schiller shook his head and threw some memories out of his mind.
Fortunately, it was not the attending doctor who came in and told him that he was a patient with delusional disorder, and all his previous experiences were his imagination. He was actually just a mental patient who had been hospitalized. This development was too cliché.
But Schiller still didn't understand why he was here. He looked up and looked around the ward, and then found that this was a high-end ward in the hospital.
The smooth tiles on the floor were spotless, the flowers placed on the bedside had no irritating smell, and all the corners of the bed had protective measures. Schiller, who had worked in the Presbyterian Hospital, knew that this should be the best ward in the mental hospital.
"Zila——", the mechanical friction sound of the steel suit came, the suit opened, Stark walked out, he walked to Schiller and sat down, and then looked at Schiller with his eyes.
That look was basically between "you can tell me whatever you have" and "you don't treat me as a friend if you don't tell me."
Schiller felt a little headache. He certainly knew that Stark and Steve must have made up something in his mind, but the problem was that when he returned to the Mind Palace, he did not find any clues. He had no idea what the two people saw in his Mind Palace.
At this time, Schiller had reacted. He was sure that he was tricked by a personality in his Mind Palace. But which one was it? Is there any need to ask?
"Fairy Wood Romance"
At the beginning, he left him an abacus, but he actually repaid his kindness with hatred. Schiller thought angrily that he must take off all the abacus beads and throw them away next time.
Now, there is an information gap between Schiller and Stark. Stark learned some things in Schiller's Mind Palace, but because of a petty person, Schiller himself did not know what Stark and Steve learned in the Mind Palace.
It's like the police arrested a prisoner for a case. The police knew the details of the case, but the prisoner didn't know.
At this time, the police asked the prisoner to confess, but this prisoner was not an ordinary prisoner. He was a serial killer who had committed many crimes. He didn't know which crime the police asked him to confess. If he spoke rashly, it would be easy to reveal more.
Schiller is in this state now. He knows that Stark must have made up something in his mind, but he doesn't know what Stark made up. If he tells all the possible pits in his mind, it may take until next year, and he will never be discharged from the hospital after that.
Schiller reasoned based on the details he knew now. It is known that the biggest change he made this time was actually to release a personality that had never surfaced since he came to this world, that is, Moonlight Schiller, also the young Schiller.
At the same time, Kong Su chose this personality as his power carrier. When Schiller took this personality out to deal with the Egyptian gods, Kong Su should still be in the psychiatric ward of the insane asylum.
Although Schiller only regarded Kong Su as a tool, he also gave him certain authority, allowing him to move freely on the 10th floor.
There were no people below the 10th floor of the Mind Hall. After Stark and Steve entered the Mind Hall, they walked up from the first floor without taking the elevator. The first person they met might be Kong Su.
If Stark and Steve were to track down Schiller, they would tell Kong Su their purpose and Kong Su would take them to the ward where the young Schiller lived.
With Stark's intelligence, he should find some clues there to speculate about Schiller's experience as a teenager.
In this case, Schiller thought, what he exposed to Stark might be some fragments of memory from his youth.
From Schiller's perspective, this speculation is not a problem. After all, he could not have thought that DC Schiller colluded with the ego and put on a show for Stark and Steve.
The so-called ego is actually the most instinctive side of human beings, that is, the real self. It is actually difficult for this part to do anything in a planned way. The ego will cooperate with this matter, and even DC Schiller, who set up the bureau, feels surprised, let alone Marvel Schiller.
After repeatedly pondering this speculation, Schiller felt that there was nothing wrong with the logic.
Since things have come to this point, it is better to take advantage of the situation. Schiller said:
"Do you want to judge me?"
Schiller turned his head, looked into Zhang Stark's eyes and said: "Pry into other people's inner world without their consent, find out some evidence that others are abnormal, and then use despicable means to put him in a mental hospital... "

"Tony Stark, do you still want to say that this is for my own good?"
Stark was stunned. He did not expect that Schiller, who had just woken up, would be so aggressive. He spread his hands and explained: "That's not it. In fact, we just..."
"Then why am I here?"
Schiller stood up, looked down at the hospital gown he was wearing, then turned around and looked at Stark, who was still sitting on the hospital bed, and asked:
“Do you support Kongsu or Amit?”
"...What?" Stark was confused.
"Do you know why the two of them were fighting?"
"Why?"
"Khonsu believes that he only has the power to judge and adjudicate after a crime has been committed."
"What's the problem?" Stark asked.
"Amit believes that the crime that has occurred is irreversible, so the criminal should be killed before the crime occurs."
"Absurd." Stark commented, "If we follow this theory, everyone in the world is a sinner."
"Then what are you doing?" Schiller looked at Stark and asked.
"You dug up some old events in my mind palace, so you concluded that I should be imprisoned in a mental hospital, so I appeared here."
"But have I hurt others because of my mental abnormality? Have I ever committed a crime because of it? Don't those abnormalities only exist in my mind?"
"Essentially, you are doing the same thing as Amit." Schiller stared into Stark's eyes and said, "Even though he just killed me."
Stark took a deep breath and said: "We are not trying you, and we are not locking you here..."
"Okay, I'm leaving here now..." After saying that, Schiller turned and left. A black shadow passed by him. Stark walked in front of him and stopped him. Schiller stopped and shrugged. He shook his shoulders and said:
"If you would have asked me to get out of here, you wouldn't be wearing a suit today."
After saying that, he glanced at the suit parked in the center of the ward, showed a somewhat mocking smile, and said, "The cigarette I handed you back then became the weapon you use against me now."
"When you used it to kill Amit, did you feel that you were very righteous? And when you use it to stop me now, do you feel the same way?"
"Although I didn't do anything, you monitored me as a criminal because of my possible danger and uncontrollable power, and even used force to coerce me when necessary..."
Schiller walked across from Stark, looked him directly in the eyes and said: "One day, you will pay for this idea of yours."
Just when Stark thought Schiller would leave the ward directly, Schiller turned back to the hospital bed, lay down with his back to Stark, and stopped making any sound.
In the moment before Schiller turned his head, Stark was convinced that he saw a deep disappointment in his eyes, which made Stark start to waver.
Schiller did not accuse him, but only repeated the internal logic of his behavior. When this logic was put on the table and analyzed openly, it sounded as ridiculous as Amit's concept.
This made Stark begin to doubt whether he had really done something wrong. After all, as Schiller said, Schiller did not actually do anything harmful to society because of his mental abnormality. On the contrary, he does not care about it now. Both his behavior and conversation are very normal. He even used his wisdom to benefit human civilization before.
If a person is born with a bomb and no one knows whether it will explode and hurt others, should he be imprisoned forever and be unable to do anything?
Between individual freedom and public safety, which one should you choose?
Before, Stark had always preferred the latter, but now, he began to think about the nature of the problem. Is it the fault of this person who was born with a bomb? If not, then why should he pay the price of being imprisoned?
Even Schiller would still feel deeply disappointed after being treated like this. So, how many people in this world have lofty ideas and are willing to sacrifice themselves to maintain public safety?
"You know what? The moment he questioned me, I was really thinking, are we really sending him to the hospital to treat him, or are we afraid that he will lose control and threaten us?"
"Do I really have the right to do this? To look at him like a potential criminal when he hasn't done anything?"
In the Avengers base, Stark sat at one end of the table and Steve sat at the other end. Steve heard his question and said with some confusion: "Why do you wear a suit to visit the sick?" ?”
"How am I going to get there without wearing a suit? Do I drive? Do you know how congested the morning rush hour is in New York?!" Stark asked.
"Then why don't you explain to him?"
"I……"
Steve covered his forehead and said, "You must have been taken into the ditch by him again, right?"
Stark sighed and said: "I would rather that he deliberately provoked me like he did in the past, rather than really feeling sad and disappointed about it."
