Chapter 2686 Hollywood Rhapsody (Forty-four)
Stark was silent as he looked at the records in his hand. After taking the medicine from his family doctor and having a good sleep, his mind became a little more stable, and he could clearly analyze which memories were from the past and which were added later.
It looks like my backstory has been changed.
The first half remains unchanged, as Howard is targeted by both HYDRA and Congress for his genius invention, and has to withstand pressure from both sides.
Then a man appeared, that was Schiller, who became the adopted son of the Hamiltons and created an accident, allowing Howard to realize the horror of Hydra earlier.
In order to save his family, Howard chose to cooperate with a Soviet scientist to jointly develop the Ark reactor technology.
But before the technology was fully perfected, those who had targeted Howard had already begun to attack him. Howard had no choice but to fake his death and take Schiller across the ocean to the Soviet Union.
There, he not only worked with Anton and other scientists to improve the Ark reactor technology, but also raised Schiller and made him a psychiatrist.
Many years passed, and Schiller chose to return to his homeland and went to the United States to attend college. However, because of Howard's experience in the past, he always hated Hydra and eventually killed people.
Because of this murder, Schiller had to cooperate with the FBI, but Stark had a doubt. He looked at Natasha and asked, "Is this case really an accident?"
Natasha looked him in the eyes and slowly shook her head.
"The dead Hydra leader was the one who directly killed the Hamiltons." Natasha said.
Stark stared at her, and Natasha told him about the past that she had investigated.
"Pracha Hamilton, the eldest son of the Hamilton family, had already been admitted to Cambridge University and traveled across the ocean to study in Europe before the Hamiltons met Schiller."
"Because of the long distance and the fact that communications were not very developed at that time, he did not contact his parents very often. When he was about to graduate from college, he suddenly heard the news of his parents' death. He just hurriedly got his degree certificate and rushed back to Hamilton's home."
"Later, with his excellent academic qualifications and abilities, he successfully joined the FBI and became an FBI agent, but for many years he had been looking for the truth behind his parents' death."
"Until one day a mysterious person contacted him through the Internet and claimed that he knew who killed the Hamiltons and could help him get revenge, but Pracha had to agree to one condition."
Hearing this, Stark was slightly stunned. He looked at Natasha and said, "Is this person Schiller?"
"Yes, this person is Schiller who has set foot on American soil again. As the second son adopted by the Hamiltons, he was an eyewitness to the murder of the Hamiltons and naturally knew who their enemy was."
"Is that the dead female Hydra leader?"
"Yes, Schiller killed her, which attracted the attention of the FBI and successfully entered the FBI."
"Did he do it on purpose?"
"Of course, because only within the FBI can he erase the information about his Soviet origins. Otherwise, it will be discovered sooner or later."
"Wait, if he's from the Soviet Union, how could he get into Columbia?"
"Of course it's because someone helped him." Natasha said with a smile.
Looking at Natasha's smile, Stark narrowed his eyes and said, "It can't be you?!"
"That's not the case. I only found out later that it was the KGB that helped him. Now you know why he joined the FBI. It was obviously arranged by the KGB."
Stark pursed his lips, not knowing what to say. This was all just a trick of both sides planting spies on each other.
"But that's not right." Stark suddenly shook his head and said, "Schiller is not willing to be a tool for spy organizations to test each other."
"Of course." Natasha nodded and smiled, "He wasn't a tool to begin with. Someone had other plans."
"Who?"
"Howard." Natasha sighed softly and said, "Your father is not as kind as he seems. Even if he was just a profit-seeking businessman when he was young, after going through so much, it is impossible for him not to have his own plans."
"What did he do?"
"Of course the most important thing is you." Natasha looked into Stark's eyes and said, "He didn't really abandon you for so many years. In fact, he has been keeping an eye on you secretly."
"Really? Why don't I feel anything?" Stark said sarcastically.
"Of course he can't let you have any feelings, otherwise he'll be exposed, but he does try his best to use the Internet to keep an eye on you. Fortunately, you're also quite famous, and you can appear in gossip magazines seven or eight times a week."
Stark blushed and said, "Not that many..."
"Anyway, Schiller is back. As Howard's adopted son, how could he not pay attention to you? But an ordinary medical student doesn't have many ways to get in touch with you, so he has been trying to get in touch with the upper class."
"But you also know that this is not easy, especially as an unarmed medical student. It is impossible to enter the upper-class circle in a normal way. If you want to find a breakthrough, you have to use dirty tricks."
"So he's in the FBI?"
"Yes, it is much easier to catch those big shots than to please them. This is exactly Schiller's style." Natasha said, "And he never failed. Not only did he successfully enter the upper class, but he also gained a good reputation and eventually entered the New York Presbyterian Hospital."
Stark seemed to understand a little bit. He said, "That's why Pepper chose him at that time. Among all the psychiatrists in the upper class, he has the greatest reputation and the strongest professional ability. Among all the psychiatrists with strong professional ability, he is the youngest."
Natasha nodded, affirming his opinion, and then said, "Pepper knows you very well. She knows that with your personality, it is unlikely that you will sit there and listen to those experts and professors analyze your condition. You especially hate those solemn and dignified old doctors. You will never take medicine unless you find someone who has the same temper as you."
Stark touched his face awkwardly, but he always felt something was wrong. Were these things a little too coincidental?
What he didn't know was that Schiller taught Strange how to be a hostage, and Strange taught Stark how to be a hostage. Stark found that being a hostage to Pepper did have its benefits, so he kept acting that way, arousing Pepper's desire to protect him.
Pepper knew how difficult he was to please, and that helping him get what he wanted had become a habit for many years. When he discovered that he was in a bad mental state, he naturally made preparations in advance. After much selection, he found Schiller to be the only one who met the requirements.
Yes, these are jobs created by Schiller himself. All we can say is that everything is a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution will come.
"Of course there is this part." Natasha handed Stark another document and said, "Of course there is no way Nick Fury is not involved in this. He may be the first person to know the truth."
Natasha crossed one leg over the other, hugged her knees and said, "Although Nick didn't want the Ark reactor technology to leak out, he wanted to protect Howard even more, so he staged the fake death accident on his own and successfully concealed it from everyone."
Stark nodded, not surprised. Howard had been cornered at the time, and he probably didn't have the ability to direct such a perfect accident. Unless everyone from the director to the inspector was his own, it would have been impossible to keep it a secret for so long. It wasn't difficult for Nick to do it with his ability."
Although Nick knew that Howard had an adopted son in the Soviet Union, he had only heard of the son's name but had never seen him. After so many years, he still didn't recognize him, and Howard didn't tell him, so when Schiller first appeared in his sight, he didn't know who he was.
"Then how did he find out?" Stark asked, "He must have found out that Schiller was one of his own, otherwise he wouldn't have allowed Schiller to contact me."
This has always been Stark's doubt. Nick is an extremely suspicious and hopeless spy chief, and he, a genius scientist, is the most important bargaining chip in his hand. He will not let any random person come into contact with him.
Besides, those people hiding in the dark have never given up their idea of subverting the world through science and technology. With Howard's previous experience, Nick will only pay more attention to Stark.
A psychologist is a very sensitive role. If a psychologist is professional enough, he or she can almost see into every thought in the patient's mind and exert influence on him or her. How could Nick Fury let an unidentified person be Tony Stark's psychologist?
Unless Nick already knew that Schiller was one of his.
Stark knew that Nick had actually installed surveillance equipment in his office and laboratory a long time ago, but he did need SHIELD to ensure his own safety, which meant that when he and Schiller met for the first time, Nick must have asked someone to investigate Schiller.
"What did he find out?" Stark asked. What he actually meant was that he didn't think there would be any problem with Schiller's identity. Having been in the FBI for so long, with Schiller's methods, all suspicious matters would probably be smoothed over.
"Then how did Nick determine the identity of Schiller's own people?"
Schiller knew Nick would check on him, so he deliberately left something in his office. Natasha handed another document to Stark and said, "Some medical records that look like they record the nonsense of ordinary patients."
Stark took it and looked at it, but didn't see anything unusual, but suddenly he saw an inexplicable pattern between the scribbled lines.
Suddenly he opened his eyes wide and said, "This is not the Ark reactor..."
Then he realized something, lowered his voice, looked at Natasha and said, "So Schiller gained Nick's trust by drawing part of the structure of the Ark reactor model?"
"More than that." Natasha said, "What he drew was not an ordinary model, but the most original one. Nick saw the Ark Reactor model in Howard's hand with his own eyes."
"He remembered it after just one glance? Doesn't he understand any technology?" Stark said with some surprise.
Natasha snorted coldly without answering. Stark also reacted. Although Nick has now become a new-age black-hearted slave owner who captures young men everywhere, in that era, he is absolutely worthy of the title of the king of agents.
Stark also understood that Schiller was using this method to tell Nick that he was one of them, because only four people had seen the original model back then, Nick, Howard, Anton and little Schiller.
There was only one person who was able to draw this pattern at that time, and that was the adopted son who was taken to the Soviet Union by Howard. "Schier" was the nickname of "Schier".
