Chapter 1096 Father and Son (Twenty-Five)
"Hello, Dr. Schiller, see you again."
Howard, who looked a little tired from work, stepped forward and shook hands with Schiller. He smiled and said: "Originally, I was on the main planet of the Brimstone Dwarves to update the security robots made for Tony, but as soon as I heard that you were coming , I rushed back..."
Schiller smiled and said, "You shouldn't have delayed anything important, right?"
Howard shook his head and followed Schiller's guidance to the sofa next to the office. After Howard sat down, Schiller walked to the cabinet and asked, "Tea, coffee or wine?"
"Anything except wine will do." Howard unbuttoned his suit, leaned on the back of the sofa in a comfortable position, and said, "I have sworn to Maria that I will never drink again."
Schiller brought two thin champagne glasses, placed them in front of Howard, and said, "I do not recommend patients with addiction to undergo cliff-like withdrawal, which may increase the possibility of recurrence of psychological addiction. If it’s not life-threatening, you can try phased withdrawal.”
Howard seemed a little hesitant. As soon as he reached out his hand and touched the cup, he took it back as if he was electrocuted. He shook his head and said, "No, I need to stay awake. I can't cope with work when I'm too drunk."
Schiller did not put away the glass, but neither did he pour himself wine. Instead, he brought a pot of water and poured the cold water into the champagne glass.
Before he could speak, Howard explained as if to make up for it: "Of course, the work is not difficult. It doesn't require me to concentrate too much. It's just repetitive work..."
"I have long heard Tony say that you are the founder of Stark Industries. I am very happy to chat with such a great scientist." Schiller took a champagne glass, took a sip of water, and then said:
"I know a lot of people are nervous about meeting a psychiatrist, thinking that just by stepping into this office, they become a mental patient. Oh, God, can't I be a little bit more than a doctor?"
Schiller raised his hand, showed a helpless smile, and said: "Compared to the doctor-patient relationship, I actually prefer the friendship relationship. Although I am Tony's friend, but speaking of it, we should be of the same generation... …”
"I've heard about it a long time ago. It's really miraculous." Howard looked at Schiller's gray eyes and said, "Actually, I know that there are all kinds of capable people in this world who have mastery of things that ordinary people don't understand. The power, but this is the first time I have made friends with an immortal."
"Oh, you are so humble. Captain America and Natasha are actually immortals, but they cannot live forever. The same goes for me." Schiller shook his head.
"I think having a longer life experience than others should have provided you with a lot of help in your career, right?" Howard took the initiative to chat about topics related to Schiller's career.
Schiller could feel that the old Stark was more talkative than his son, but it was not surprising that Tony Stark was more of a scientist, but Howards Tucker was still a businessman after all.
Although, in that era, Stark Industries had not yet developed into the behemoth it is today, it is undeniable that the founder had more comprehensive abilities than Tony.
"Actually, Natasha and I are the same. We didn't suddenly wake up after sleeping for many years, but we witnessed the changes of the times with our own eyes."
Schiller put down the wine glass in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth gently, and then said: "This has good and bad qualities. Having a richer life experience than others has given me more professional experience, but it has also consumed my Sensitive and inspired.”
"For psychiatrists, inspiration is not too important. We follow logical analysis more. But for a scientist, inspiration for invention and creation is still very important. Therefore, a younger mental age has an advantage. , isn't it?" Schiller said, looking at Howard.
The muscles in the corners of Howard's eyes twitched. This change was very weak, but Schiller still caught it.
Unlike Tony Stark, who likes to write all his emotions on his face, Howard is very good at hiding his emotions. He didn't make any unnecessary movements and just said with a smile:
"Yes, looking at the things created by Tony and the young people of his generation, I really feel deeply that there are geniuses in every era, and the world of every era has its own splendor. This It makes me feel happy and sad at the same time..."
"I'm listening," Schiller said.
He has discovered that Howard is the kind of patient that psychiatrists like best. They know very well how valuable their and their doctor's time is, and they don't like to talk too much, and they are even less willing to go around in circles to cover up their illness.
They emphasize efficiency, have clear goals, and don't like to waste any time on meaningless nonsense.
Since they have walked into the psychiatrist's office, they are here to see a doctor. They do not need a doctor's guidance. They will do their best to explain their situation clearly, hoping that the doctor can understand their situation more than the doctor himself.
People like Peter and Clark prefer to express their emotions when facing psychiatrists, such as "I'm very happy recently" or "I'm very sad recently". At most, they can talk about why they are happy or sad.
But people like Howard like to start from the facts, talk about logic and facts, and work with a psychologist to analyze the contradictions in their inner state. It can be said to be a comprehensive automatic diagnosis and treatment, which saves time and effort.
But Schiller did not show any relaxed posture. On the contrary, he straightened his body and sat up straighter than Howard, because he knew very well that this kind of patient is good at everything, but the doctor's level is too high.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Such people have a deep understanding of their own situation. Before coming to see a doctor, they have even clarified the context of everything through self-analysis, found the key points, and even analyzed some conclusions based on their own personality.
If the doctor's skills are not good enough, the reasoning speed is too slow, the logic is too cumbersome, and it is not as good as their own inference, then they will definitely turn around and leave without wasting time here.
Any patient who is so rational and intelligent is a great test of the professionalism of the psychologist.
Schiller began to concentrate, but Howard had already begun his own story:
"I'm very happy that the future of humanity is better than I imagined."
"Perhaps you also know, doctor, that during the Cold War years, many people were very pessimistic. We didn't know when a terrible war would break out, and we didn't know when our peaceful life would come to an end..."
"But when I woke up, I found that instead of fighting the third or fourth world war, mankind was united together and wanted to move into the universe. And this was not just slogans, many plans had been implemented. It has even achieved impressive results.”
"Human beings have set foot in the solar system, touched the sun, and even looked into the deeper universe. Moreover, in addition to the vigorous development of science and technology, human beings have also embarked on the path of magic. There is no doubt that this has greatly increased the error tolerance rate of our development. Both Going hand in hand and chasing after each other will be the best healthy competition. "
"In terms of diplomacy, I heard that Asgard has close ties with us. I really didn't expect that the country in the mythical stories has actually become an ally of mankind. Their new king has a very close relationship with mankind. He even had a visit on Earth Life experience, this will be the best bargaining chip for our civilization’s future diplomacy..."
"There is no doubt that this is the best era I have ever seen. I couldn't sleep for a few days when I was excited about it..." Howard's fingertips were trembling a little, and as he spoke, he entered a state of excitement again. in the state.

Then, he gently picked up the wine glass and took a sip of ice-cold water. Only then did he calm down a little, and his mood gradually became lower.
"But I also feel a little sad. This is why I came to you, doctor. I don't know why I am sad, but I have some speculations. Do you want to hear it?"
Schiller nodded and said: "Of course, in addition to speculation, you can also focus on feelings and emotions. This part can also be used as an important factor for reference..."
Howard nodded, indicating that he understood. He also felt a little nervous, so he put down his glass, sat up straight, and said:
"On the first night after the resurrection, Maria and I celebrated. Both of us were very emotional. We never thought that we would have the opportunity to start over from scratch after a life that we thought ended in regret. No one would not Rejoice in this second life.”
"During dinner, we all drank a little wine. Of course, not much. Maria couldn't drink too much wine and was worried that I would get drunk, so we only drank half a bottle of champagne. But after that, we all Drunk more than anyone else..."
"After the exciting chat, both of us felt a little tired. Maria and I lay on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep for a long time. After a while, she started to cry. I knew that she felt that she had missed Tony's growth. Pity……"
"But at that time, I realized that I was unable to comfort him, because an indescribable negative emotion rose from my heart."
"I guess this may be guilt. The decision I made at the time hurt Maria and Tony."
Howard slowly closed his eyes, with a trace of pain on his face. He said: "Between family and the world, I did not choose family. I think I am a good person from beginning to end, but I am not a good husband and good friend." Father……"
"How can I enjoy a new life with peace of mind? Can the previous sins be offset by doing it again?" Howard seemed not to be asking Schiller, but more like asking himself.
"If you fail to take responsibility when you should be responsible, and then pay ten times the compensation, can you make up for it?"
Howard slowly leaned back on the sofa again, looking a little decadent. He said, "Of course not. Every stage in everyone's life only happens once. If you miss it, you can never get it back."
"Maria and I should have been accompanying Tony, watching him go to college happily, finish reading happily, and get to know like-minded friends and research partners in the university..."
"Tony should have learned how to behave by my side, socialized with my old friends and their children, learned the business step by step, and slowly established his own personality and social style, just like me The same thing I learned from my father.”
Howard's words always seemed restrained, cautious and polite. Although he was not much older than Tony when he died, he seemed a hundred times more mature than Tony now.
"Some people say I'm a jerk, a playboy who doesn't work properly..." Howard smiled and said, "That's just because this is the social style I have established. I need this style to help me gain an advantage in the business world."
"But Tony..." Howard shook his head and said, "From now on, he has really spent a long period of chaotic and decadent days..."
"And this actually stems from the lack of family education, the lack of parental care, and especially... the lack of his father's teaching by example."
