Chapter 2711 Hollywood Rhapsody (Forty-Three)

Chapter 2685 Hollywood Rhapsody (Forty-three)

When Natasha received Stark's call, Nick had already returned. It seemed that he had something to discuss with Natasha, but when he saw Natasha answering the phone, he gestured to her and returned to his office.

"What did you say? No, no, no, don't come over. With your current mental state, I'm really afraid that you will die in SHIELD...Okay, tell me what information you want, and I'll send it to you."

"Why did you suddenly think of this? Well, it's not a secret. You asked the right person. I'll be there soon, but before that, take care of your brain first. I don't want to see a crazy mental patient."

After Natasha hung up the phone, she took her authority to go to the data room. Not long after, Nick appeared outside the door, leaning against the door frame and asked her, "What's wrong? I asked you to investigate Have you found anything?"

"Don't worry, it's been prepared." Natasha rolled her eyes and said, "There's nothing to investigate about Schiller's past. You know who he has the deepest connection with without me telling you."

Nick sighed and said, "I don't have to know, but I have to know at least what his connection with the Soviet Union is, so I can find a way to keep it from others. Otherwise, if it's really revealed, who will benefit?"

Natasha searched inside and found a pile of information that she had obviously prepared long ago. She walked to the door and handed it to Nick, letting Nick take a look, and then stretched out his hand to take it back.

Nick glanced at the information and showed an expression of "as expected". He glanced at Natasha and said, "Who do you want to give this information to?"

"Tony Stark, he just called and wanted to know what happened back then. Anyway, it's not a secret. He is also half a party involved. It's okay to tell him."

Nick hesitated and said, "Howard's fake death is a big shock to him. It's normal that he can't accept it. I am also responsible for this matter. I can't hide it from him at this point."

"The only thing that worries me is Schiller. Is it really okay to tell Tony about Schiller? Will he think... Howard and I deliberately let Schiller get close to him?"

"Don't you?" Natasha asked back.

"Whether it is or not is different from whether he knows it." Nick said, "It's not good anyway... Forget it, Tony is not a child anymore. No matter what he thinks, he should know the truth. Go."

Watching Natasha's back, Nick's thoughts drifted farther and farther. Even when Coulson came in and called him, he didn't respond. He thought of what happened many years ago.

"Go investigate a psychiatrist named Schiller right away. I want all his information right away."

That was the first time Nick set his sights on Schiller. Nick put down his hands that were pressing the headphones. Not long after, Coulson gave him the results. The SHIELD agents investigated Schiller's residence and his workplace and found that he might be addicted to alcohol and drugs.

But more importantly, Coulson found some scribbled papers in the drawer of Schiller's office. They were full of all kinds of crazy nonsense, which looked like the nonsense of a mentally ill patient.

Most of these papers were shredded by the shredder, but the remaining ones still gave a glimpse of clues. Coulson and the evidence analysis team he led did not find any clues on these papers, so they had to hand them over to Nick intact.

And Nick seemed to understand something the moment he saw those crazy patterns.

Howard Stark contacted Anton Vanko.

Of course, with the help of Schiller, the two of them communicated on the Internet. Anton soon became a close friend of Howard, and Howard also learned about Anton's recent predicament.

Anton Vanko is a good scientist, but the Soviet Union is no longer in an era where being a good scientist can contribute to the country. Anton has been frustrated.

Being in the game, he can't get rid of the current predicament. No matter how reluctant he is, he still hopes to get Howard's help, so that there is hope to turn the situation around.

But it is too difficult to get a scientist out of the Soviet Union. Even if the other party does not have any important research results, as long as he takes action, he will definitely be targeted by the other party.

Howard has already provoked Congress and Hydra, and the FBI has been watching him. He can't provoke the KGB again.

At this time, Howard thought of a person, that is Nick Fury. The relationship between the two of them has to start from the Howling Commandos. Of course, it is not the original version, but a team reorganized by Nick after Captain America disappeared. Howard provides them with technical support.

Howard trusted Nick and thought he could play a role in this matter, but Nick was still surprised to hear that Howard wanted to rescue someone from the Soviet Union, and couldn't help asking Howard what he wanted to do.

Howard didn't hide anything. He showed Nick some of his research materials on the Ark reactor model and mentioned the new elements.

Nick immediately realized that this might be a big guy who could completely subvert the world situation. He didn't hesitate and used all the resources at his disposal to get Anton Vanko over.

After Anton came, he was very excited to see the research data of the Ark Reactor. Obviously, as a scientist, he could understand more deeply than Nick that this thing could not only change the international situation, but also change the status of mankind in the entire universe.

This means that mankind can have unlimited energy.

The two immediately began to study, and in the process of research, both sides found that the two had a strange good compatibility. Howard always had all kinds of wonderful ideas and genius inspirations, while Anton had a solid foundation and was quite rigorous in thinking. The two were simply confidants and perfect matches on the road of science.

In this way, the two made great breakthroughs in the field of Ark Reactor technology at a speed that ordinary people could not imagine, and the day of reversing the current situation of mankind seemed to be coming.

Being obsessed with scientific research made Howard almost forget his dangerous situation, but the good times did not last long, and the dark shadows hidden behind him eventually caught up with him.

One day, Howard returned to the laboratory of Stark Industries and looked at Anton, who was hesitant to speak. Anton had the roughness of a Soviet man, advocated speaking directly, and could not stand Howard's procrastination, so he asked him what was wrong in a bad mood.

Howard was searching for Schiller in the lab. Schiller had rarely left the lab during this period. In the eyes of Howard and Anton, he was a computer genius who had surpassed this era and could use various computer technologies to deploy various machines in Stark Industries to maximize their research efficiency.

Both of them liked the boy very much, especially Anton, who also had a child who was not much older than Schiller, but lived far away in Moscow, and they could not see each other except for online communication.

He poured all his fatherly love on Schiller, and told him about the scenery of Moscow when he had nothing to do, and about his several trips to the Soviet Union for scientific research, and how he walked through the snowfields, crossed the birch forest, and rested in the ranger's hut.

Schiller always listened attentively, and it was not entirely acting, because Dr. Anatoly used to like to tell him these things, and the joy and pride revealed in their tones were exactly the same.

But sometimes the topic was not so easy, and Schiller often saw the same expression on Anton's face as Dr. Anatoly. This was an emotion that was difficult to describe, very complicated, with sadness and disappointment, but also nostalgia and love.

Things finally came to the point where they had to make a choice. Howard found someone staring at Maria and Tony's car, and more than once someone was hanging around Stark Manor.

And Anton also heard about the recent situation in the Soviet Union. Everything was going in a very bad direction. It was even heard that they were organizing a big vote to choose whether to kill this great country.

Both of them were a little restless, and they could no longer concentrate on their research as before, until one day, Nick came to the laboratory in a hurry and talked with Howard for several hours. When he came out, Howard seemed to have made up his mind.

"The existence of the Ark reactor technology has been exposed." Howard opened his mouth with a terrible piece of bad news. He looked at Anton and said, "We only have three days at most, and this technology will fall into the hands of some people who are determined to destroy the world."

Anton's expression was very complicated. He said, "They will not let you go, no matter where you go, no matter how you..."

"No, there is another way." Howard looked at Schiller, as if to confirm with him, and Schiller nodded to him gently.

"I know you need this technology." Howard approached Anton, looked into his eyes and said, "Although I don't think this technology alone can save your country, it will be a complete tragedy, but if you want to try, I'm willing to help you."

Anton's lips moved, and Howard said resolutely: "The only problem now is that there is not enough time. The technology of the Ark reactor is not perfect enough, but at least there is no room for us to continue experiments here."

"So..."

"I will create an accident and fake my death. We will go to the Soviet Union together until this technology is completed. Of course, you must take us in, and as a reward, you can use this technology anywhere you need it. I won't object."

Anton widened his eyes and looked at Howard in disbelief. Howard lowered his head, looking very sad. He looked at Anton and said: "No matter what, at least there are people you can trust in your hometown, but I don't have any here, almost none."

"When I think about it carefully, I can't find a few people who can be completely unmoved by this technology, but I know you have, you have, right?"

"Yes." Anton took a deep breath and said, "I do know a few friends, I can guarantee that they are completely trustworthy. Like me, they don't want to see the demise of this country. They will also respect you and respect everyone who wants to make the world a better place. We can complete the research of this technology there."

"Then do it." Howard said, "But I have to take Schill with me, I can't leave him alone."

Anton walked over and touched Schiller's head. Schiller just raised his eyes and still looked at him with that focused look, as if he saw a long time of the past from his face.

"Let's go, little Schill, I'll take you to see Moscow."
