Chapter 62 Daily Life in Early Winter (Part 2)

As social animals, humans always have a tendency to converge. When they are in a group in a certain environment, they will inevitably be changed by the environment. Stark has a deep understanding of this now.

Peter is sweet with his childhood sweetheart Gwen every day. After Gwen officially confirmed her relationship with Peter some time ago, the two of them started dating at a rate of two or three times a week.

Spider-Man, who has not yet progressed to the stage of meeting his father-in-law, has been bubbling with happiness recently. Every day, he can hear him excitedly talking about what little gifts he received from his girlfriend, or which restaurant or dish he ate was particularly delicious.

Stark has to admit that even if the details Peter said were naive, and the restaurant they went to for a date was a roadside stall that a rich man like Stark would never go to, every time he heard Peter's description, Stark could fully feel his happiness.

In addition to Peter, through the mouth of the clever little ghost Scrange, the story of Schiller and his wife has become more and more detailed and more poignant after being passed down by everyone.

Originally, it was just information obtained by Coulson during his routine investigation of Strange, but how could he keep such big gossip to himself? The next day, Natasha and Nick heard a very real and detailed version from Coulson.

Strange's few words were enriched into a story by the genius agent Coulson, 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 story. The emotional brain unique to women made her add more romantic details to this story, making it more real.

And Nick, he is a skeptic, knowing this fact, he will definitely investigate.

This investigation really touched some clues.

He found out that the medical fees paid by SHIELD and Stark to Schiller were originally in one of Schiller's American accounts, but recently, this large sum of money was transferred to an international account in Switzerland by him. After that, Nick could not find out where the money went. He guessed that this money might be used by Schiller to maintain his wife's life.

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 SHIELD agents cast a net like fishing, but still couldn't find any trace of him. Nick thought that Schiller might have used magic to go to his wife.

Nick has always believed that in order to be a good agent, in addition to careful logical thinking ability, one must also have the ability to associate and diverge. Many times, inadvertent inspiration may bring unexpected changes to actions.

Therefore, with these multiple factors added up, Nick is sure that this matter is almost certain.

He believes that Schiller's wife may not be an American, because he can't find such a missing woman in the archives. Schiller may have met her while studying abroad. After they fell in love and got married, the lady may have suffered from a disease that is temporarily incurable but will continue to worsen. Combined with the cryogenic technology that Schiller mentioned to Strange before, Nick speculated that Schiller might have mastered a technology that can freeze people forever to seal his wife to prevent the disease from worsening, and has been looking for treatment methods.

Nick saw more than just a tragic love story in this story. He had always wanted to win over Schiller to completely turn to SHIELD and work for them. If SHIELD could make some achievements in treating his wife, then Nick believed that SHIELD would soon have another powerful arm.

Therefore, Nick also asked for the information of various neurological experts to see who was qualified to solve this problem.

If Schiller heard Nick's voice and knew the story he had made up, he would definitely applaud the king of agents. Isn't this the love story of Mr. Freeze and his wife?

Mr. Freeze's story is very good, and it will be mine in the next second.

Later, when this story reached Stark's ears, he naturally thought that Nick must have had conclusive evidence, so he also thought that Schiller had indeed been trying to find a treatment method for many years because of his wife.

This fact was quite shocking to Stark. After all, most of the people he met in his growth years were rotten people who were almost as drunkards as 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 happened. Schiller said that Steve was in a bad mood recently.

Stark was so happy. Captain America was in a bad mood, but Iron Man was in a good mood.

When Steve came back, Stark wanted to laugh at him, but Steve looked very haggard at the time, and Schiller also looked serious and sad. Peter basically didn't dare to breathe.

In the days without Pepper, Stark wandered around, and he finally read the air a little bit. Seeing everyone like this, he also held back all the words in his heart.

Afterwards, he went to Schiller to ask Steve what happened, but Schiller just shook his head and asked him to ask Steve himself.

How could Iron Man take the initiative to ask Captain America?

However, Stark's overly strong curiosity finally made him find Steve.

Then he learned from Steve about his romantic love story with Peggy that spanned a century.

The weak and helpless new recruit who just entered the military camp met a heroic female officer who cared about him everywhere. After the new recruit became the famous Captain America, they went through life and death together and were each other's most perfect soul mates. Even after a century, Captain America remained firm and only Peggy was his most perfect dance partner.

But the ending of this romantic story is lamentable. A few days ago, Steve saw Peggy lying on the bed and aging, and learned from the doctor that she might not live long.

He saw the photo of him that Peggy kept. It was not the strong Captain America after the serum was injected, but the Steve who had just entered the new recruit camp, was bullied everywhere, and was cowardly and weak. After being transformed into Captain America, Steve hadn't cried like this for a long time.

He was really about to collapse. He even rushed to Nick's office a little irrationally and asked 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 made Stark start to think, is he a little too alternative?

Speaking of women, Stark certainly has no shortage of them. Magazine models, party girls, or Hollywood actresses, Stark changes one every day, sometimes even several a day.

But when it comes to dating, talking about true love, Stark thought about it and found that his head was empty.

From childhood to adulthood, he has never had any love experience that can be shown off and resonate with his friends.

First love? It seems that there is some impression. Stark tried to think about it, but he had to admit that he had almost forgotten it.

Peter and Gwen are in love, Schiller and his wife are separated by life and death, and Captain America and Peggy are not born yet.

And Stark, who was surrounded by this group of people, couldn't help but start to use his genius brain to think hard, why is he different?

"Pepper has been looking at me a little strangely lately." In the cafeteria of SHIELD, Stark, Schiller and Peter were eating at the same table. After Schiller threw Stark out, Pepper had no choice but to send him to SHIELD. Stark was very reluctant, but if he didn't go, he would have to sleep on the streets.

"Strange? What's strange?"

"I'm not kidding, I'm serious. I can't tell the look in her eyes. She's a little worried, a little relieved, but also a little sympathetic."

"I should really leave this job to you. You can see so many things from her eyes?"

Stark waved his hand perfunctorily and said, "Come on, I've seen at least 800 women, and I can tell what they are thinking from their eyes. What's wrong with Pepper?"

"That depends on what's wrong with you recently. What's wrong with you recently?"

"I have something to do, I'm fine."

Schiller put down the fork in his hand and snapped his fingers, saying, "Jarvis, can you analyze the difference in your master's behavior trajectory recently?"

Jarvis beeped twice, and Stark also held his face with his hands, waiting for his smart butler to answer.

"According to the analysis, you have turned down 18 invitations from the opposite sex within a week. This is the only difference from the usual behavior pattern..."

In an instant, Stark saw an expression on Schiller's face that was almost exactly the same as Pepper's.

"Damn it, I'm not..."

"You don't need to explain, well... if you figured it out, congratulations, if you can't do it..."

Schiller shrugged and said, "... then you deserve it."

Schiller knew that in the comics, this guy was a super stud. Not to mention his first love Meredith who was forced to break up and Bane who had evil intentions, Gamora, Captain Marvel, Wasp, Spider-Woman, and She-Hulk all flirted and slept, and then ran away.

"I'm not..." Stark put down the cutlery in his hand, put his hands on the table and said, "I don't think there's anything good about them..."

"Who was the one who talked about the beauties on the yacht?"

"Okay." Stark said like a deflated ball, "I haven't had a decent relationship, and you always talk about love, romance, and those romantic stories in my ears."

"I originally thought they were everything, sexy, charming, short-lived and passionate, what's wrong with that?"

"But Peter actually said yesterday that his girlfriend was willing to listen to him talk about how he made those machines, and the two of them actually talked about this topic for a whole afternoon!"

"In fact, we didn't talk enough, and we went to the exhibition hall again the next day, the one of Stark Industries, the machines there were so cool, we didn't feel tired even after walking around all day..."

Accompanied by Stark's murderous eyes, Peter silently stuffed his mouth with a sandwich.

"...Well, no one ever wants to listen to me talk about this. They prefer to listen to all kinds of Hollywood intelligence, gossip about brand shows, and new clothes for winter and spring. How can anyone be willing to listen to me talk about how to make mechas?"

"But you actually want to talk about this, right? In your opinion, mechas are actually much better looking than those brand-name coats."

Stark pouted, he looked like a lemon now.

"But it's useless for you to come to us to talk about this matter, you have to go to Pepper."

"But she doesn't understand these mechas, and she is already very busy."

"Again, as long as you say it, she will definitely be willing to listen."
