Chapter 525: Schiller's Origin Story (Part 2)
Steve pressed the projector on the table, and a list was projected on the wall. Everyone could see the information of cryogenic scientists who met a certain filtering condition.
There are not many scholars on the entire planet who can be called cryogenic scientists. Even if those who have passed away are included, the number is only three digits.
Among these people, there are probably only a few dozen famous scholars who may be able to develop such genius low-temperature technology, and about 30 of them have spouses.
However, neurodegenerative disease is a relatively rare case. Among the 30 cryogenic scientists, no one’s wife has this rare disease.
Even among these 30 cryogenic scientists, except for two who were widowed and eight who were divorced, the rest can be said to have happy families and happy lives, and there are no tragic stories of life, separation, or death.
At this time, Strange spoke again: "I have said before that I am the best neurosurgeon in the world. If someone suffers from this relatively rare case, then I should have at least seen or heard about it. Yes, but I really haven’t.”
"Moreover, when he gave me the information, he emphasized to me that the patient could not come for a consultation. However, if it is true as he said, it was his friend's story, then even if the patient cannot come due to physical reasons, Xi As the husband of Le’s friend, why didn’t he come forward in person?”
Stark's voice came from the suit, and he said: "If there really is such a person in this world, then I will never find it."
No one will think that he is talking big words, because in addition to being Iron Man, Stark is also the leader of Stark Group and the world's richest man with the largest capital in the world.
Coupled with Jarvis's artificial intelligence and Stark's unparalleled information collection technology, it is absolutely impossible to find such a person if he is determined to find him.
But Stark did not find a cryogenic scientist who matched Schiller's description. Whether he is still alive or dead, as long as there is such a person in human civilization, Stark will definitely be able to find his traces. But the fact is, there are no clues.
"So, is this just an excuse for him to cover up his story?" Steve frowned and said, "Another suspicious point is that Schiller actually named his sanatorium Arkham. nursing home."
"Where did the name Arkham come from? And the nursing home has moved once, and he still doesn't want to give up the name."
"Tony, can you find the last name Arkham?"
"I'm checking." Stark replied. After a while, he said with some confusion: "No, no, I have screened all the information on people related to the name Arkham in human history. , but there is no match.”
"Maybe it's not the last name, but the middle name." Matt suggested again, and he continued: "And don't forget, if Schiller wants to cover up a person's traces, you may not be able to find it."
Everyone knew that if the cryogenic scientist friend's story was true, it didn't make sense that nothing could be found.
Because Schiller had absolutely no need to conceal his friend's identity. Although it was a bit shocking to freeze his wife to wait for treatment, when things have developed to this point, it no longer matters what others think. Instead, he announced his own situation. Only by coming out can you get more help.
If this situation were replaced by Schiller himself, it would be even more convincing.
"As far as I know, in the doctor's profession, many people's spouses are their peers." Strange said again.
So Steve started to connect the story together.
"Schiller was sent to a mental hospital because he witnessed his parents being killed when he was young. He became aphasic, perhaps because of the stimulation."
"During the treatment in the mental hospital, he did not receive enough attention, so he developed an antisocial personality."
"He spent his teenage years in a mental hospital. Perhaps he met his former lover during this period. She cured him, and Schiller gradually transformed into a normal person."
"After that, he embarked on the academic path of seeking the secrets of human psychology and spirit and achieved extremely high achievements."
"But later, his wife suffered from a neurodegenerative disease that cannot be cured by current medical methods, and he had to use a freezing technology to freeze her until the development of human medical technology."
"Maybe the lack of progress in this area for a long time is one of the reasons why he is having mental problems again." Steve sighed.
"Then, the key still lies with his wife." Stark emphasized, and asked: "Does anyone know where Schiller goes every time he goes on vacation?"
Everyone shook their heads, Peter hesitated, and then said: "I only know that every time Dr. Schiller leaves, he doesn't take anything with him. It doesn't look like he is on vacation..."
"That means that he may have another home that he can move into directly. Perhaps that is where he and his wife once lived..."
"But there's no way Schiller can tell us where his wife is." Steve found a chair and sat down, then said, "Obviously, he doesn't trust anyone on this issue."
"We have to find it ourselves." Stark said, "Maybe because of emotional reasons, Schiller came to the conclusion that he didn't need anyone's help, or he thought it was more necessary to conceal this matter."
"But in fact, it's not the case. We can all understand him and are willing to help him. It's not a big deal. If magic doesn't work, we will ask Asgard. If Asgard doesn't work, we will ask other cosmic demons..."
"In general, the diseases suffered by humans may not be difficult to solve in the eyes of these non-human beings. If this problem can be solved, Schiller's mental problems may be fundamentally solved.
"The key is, where should we start looking?" Peter said with a headache: "I stayed at Dr. Schiller's for a long time, but I didn't find any clues worth noting."
"As long as a thing has its roots, it will inevitably leave traces." Steve said very confidently: "As long as this person has existed, it is impossible that there are no clues left."
"We still have to start with Schiller." Matt suggested: "Maybe we can find some traces of his life with his wife from the environment he lives in. ”
Steve slapped the table and began to assign tasks. He said:
“Peter, go to the Hell’s Kitchen clinic where you and Schiller lived together before to investigate. I remember that Schiller should have left a lot of things there.”
“The Arkham Sanatorium on Wall Street before Stephen went there should not have been renovated yet, and there may be some traces.”
“As for me, I will go to the new sanatorium, maybe I can find some of Schiller’s living habits there…”
After Steve made the arrangements, Stark looked at him, and he also looked at Stark. Steve shrugged and said, “I think, according to Schiller’s current mental state, he may not like you rushing into his sanatorium.”
Stark snorted, then said, “How are you going to get into his new sanatorium? Climb over the wall?”
“Then how are you going to get in? "
Half an hour later, Stark got out of the sports car, Steve walked out from the other side, closed the car door, and walked into the gate of the nursing home with a swagger. As soon as he walked in, he was stopped by the nurse.
Before the nurse could speak, Stark moved his sunglasses down a little, then looked at the nurse from above the sunglasses and said, "Don't you know who I am?"
"Oh, you are Stark, the world's richest man Stark!" The nurse on the other side was shocked, but then silently stepped back two steps, obviously having heard of Stark's reputation.<.
Steve walked up and patted Stark on the shoulder, saying, "It seems that face recognition doesn't work very well?"
"Who said I was going to use face recognition?" Stark snorted coldly, stopped the nurse and said, "I want to go to the director's office, how should I go?"
"This is a nursing home with an appointment system, and you need to have..."
"How much is the highest level lifetime membership? "
The nurse's eyes lit up, and she immediately led Stark to the front desk with a smile. Stark pressed the device on his wrist twice, and with a ding, the sound of money arriving sounded. The nurse immediately said:
"Now, you can use all the facilities here for free, and we have many welfare guarantees..."
"I just want to go to the dean's office."
"Uh, but the dean himself is not here, this..."
"Do you think he will refuse a senior lifetime membership that costs so much? If one is not enough, I can charge another one. I believe you should know something about your dean..."
After hearing this, the nurse thought about it and seemed to think that what Stark said made sense. If Schiller was here, Stark was willing to spend so much money, and Schiller would definitely invite him into the dean's office with a smile.
Thinking of this, the nurse pointed to the stairs and said: "The second room on the left on the 4th floor, but I'm not sure if the door is locked or has a key. If you can't get in, then there's nothing you can do. "
Stark shook his head and motioned Steve to follow. Steve shook his head helplessly. No one was better than Stark in using money.
When they arrived at the door of the Dean's Office on the 4th floor, Stark found that the door was not locked. He walked in directly and began to search the room with Steve.
These Dean's offices are very spacious, with bright floor-to-ceiling windows and brand new modern style decorations. One of the huge desks is located on the east side of the room, which is densely packed with many documents.
It took the two of them a long time just to look through these things, but apart from some messy medical records, what else could they find? I didn't find it either.
There was a bookshelf on the desk, and a row of drawers on the bottom side. All the drawers could be opened at will, and they were filled with paper documents. Only the bottom drawer was locked.
Steve Stark noticed this, and they squatted down next to the desk and began to study the drawer.
Strangely, there was no handle or keyhole on the drawer. It was more like a solid box than a drawer, and it looked like it couldn't be opened at all.
Stark hesitated for a moment and gave up the idea of violent disassembly. He stood up and replaced the core of his mecha.
As the magic light flickered, a light spot appeared on Stark's gauntlet, and then he pressed his finger on the cabinet door, and the magic energy was transmitted along the cabinet door, and then he found a very special lock on the inside of the cabinet door.
With a "click", the lock was opened, and Stark reached out and opened the cabinet door. What appeared in his field of vision was an old-fashioned folder.
On the folder, a badge with a sickle, hammer and red flag was shining.
