Chapter 523 Schiller's Origin Story (Part 1)

Venom's host, Edib Locke, was fired from the newspaper due to the Life Foundation incident and fell into hell's kitchen. However, he later returned to the newspaper due to the incident related to the immortality factor and took the position of editor-in-chief.

However, because of the presence of Venom, Eddie did not choose to move back to a high-end apartment, but settled in Hell's Kitchen.

Eddie and Matt had worked together in the Life Foundation incident, and both had a good impression of each other.

After all, Matt is not a reckless person and thinks of countermeasures before taking action, while Eddie, who is possessed by venom, is also a planner. The two discuss strategies together when they have nothing to do, and they soon become good friends.

Eddie rented a house on the edge of Hell's Kitchen. The location was much better than Matt's previous stronghold, so Matt went to live there when he had nothing to do. Later, it developed into a shared house between the two.

Now Eddie and Matt are both ruthless and talkative types, and they get along quite well with each other, but don't forget that there is a third person in their house, and that is the venom living in Eddie's body.

"You really don't know how annoying he is!" Matt, who came to the ward to visit the patient, put his briefcase aside, adjusted the collar of his suit, and then began to pour out his bitterness to Schiller.

"That piece of mud used to fight with Eddie for magazines when he went to the toilet. The two of them would argue in my toilet for a full 20 minutes!"

"Eddie is an editor. He goes to work at 10 a.m. every day and has his own transportation device. I am just an ordinary lawyer. I go to work at 8:30 every morning and have to go through almost the entire Brooklyn. Every morning, I have to Go to the restroom in the restaurant downstairs..."

"It's just a quarrel. If they quarreled, they would start fighting, and the black mud would block my toilet. After I got home at 10 o'clock at night, I had to find someone to fix the toilet!"

Matt sighed deeply and said: "Just yesterday, he not only blocked my toilet, but also blocked the sewer pipes of the entire apartment building. All the neighbors were asking me what happened... …”

"You know the way they look at me? Damn it, there's no way I could poop a ton in one night!"

Schiller couldn't hold back his laughter and burst out laughing. Matt's face turned even more ugly. He continued: "I don't know what grudges he has against those symbiotes. They have to fight in Hell's Kitchen every now and then." One fight caused chaos to the public order."<.

"You also know how ugly they look, as if they have the words 'I am an alien' written on their faces. Even if the people in Hell's Kitchen are more accepting than the average person, it doesn't mean they can accept it. This monster was running around above their heads."

"Many people took pictures and posted them online. Although most of the comments were to praise their pictures, they also caused panic among a small number of people. After all, even thieves and robbers are still human beings, but that The swarm of symbionts are not human at first glance, and they look fierce.”

"Schiller?...Schiller!" Matt suddenly shouted because he found that Schiller was a little distracted lying on the bed. Schiller shook his head slightly, then looked at him and said: "Oh, I'm listening. …Then what are you going to do?”

Matt did not continue to speak. He stood up, leveled the hospital bed, then looked down at Schiller and said, "I'm sorry, I'm used to complaining to you about this..."

He raised his head and looked around the ward, and said: "It is not your obligation to relieve our worries. You are a patient now and should have a good rest."

Matt turned around and bent down to arrange the flowers he had brought. In such a short time, Schiller's eyelids drooped again. Matt's expression became a little worried, but soon, Schiller rubbed his eyes. , smiled and said:

"Now, you and Peter are employees of SHIELD. I can go to Nick to reimburse you for your medical expenses. I wish you could stay a little longer. That way, the expression on that one-eyed dragon's face when he sees the reimbursement form will be very exciting."

Matt also smiled, and after the two chatted for a few more words, Matt said, "I have to prepare for tomorrow's court session in the afternoon, and I'll see you another day."

After saying that, he picked up his briefcase and left, but when he walked out of the ward, his face became serious. After leaving the hospital, the route he left was not to the law firm, but to a different route. Avengers base.

He just arrived at the base and met Steve walking out. Steve keenly noticed that Matt's face was not very good. He knew that Matt had gone to see Schiller before. He said helplessly:

"You didn't argue with Schiller like Tony, did you? He is a patient now. Taking a step back, everyone has their own opinions on this kind of issue, and arguing will not lead to any results... "

"Tony? He also went to see Schiller? Did the two of them quarrel?"

"It can't be said to be a quarrel." Thinking of this, Steve was helpless. He and Matt briefly explained what Schiller and Stark were arguing about, but unexpectedly, Matt did not join in. Topic, he just said a little angry:

"Seriously, doesn't Tony know that Schiller is a patient? And he has just experienced resurrection from the dead. Even a normal person will be in a bad mental state after experiencing such a thing and cannot be stimulated..."

Steve frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Is there anything unusual about Schiller?"

"I think he is a little sleepy. To be precise, he seems to be suffering from narcolepsy. While I was chatting with him, he kept dozing off. You know, this is not common..."

"Normally, he is already sober at five or six in the morning, and can even scold Peter and Pikachu for more than two hours in a row for staying up late playing games, but now..."

Matt continued: "It's almost 12 noon and he's still sleepy, which is completely abnormal."

Steve was wearing a coat and holding an old handbag. He looked like he was about to go out. Matt asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm just going to see him." Steve put his hands on his hips, turned around, and said, "I'm pretty sure I won't have any argument with Schiller like Tony. I just want to comfort him. "

"You and Tony said before that you found that he might have some childhood trauma? But now it seems that some of his mental illnesses may have relapsed. I think you'd better go and observe."

"Don't worry." Steve patted Matt's shoulder, turned and left the base. Looking at his leaving back, Matt shook his head and walked into the room.

When Steve came to the ward where Schiller lived, a nurse had just walked out of the ward. Just as Steve was about to push the door open, the nurse stopped him and said, "Are you sure your appointment time is correct? ?The patient is asleep now."

Steve glanced down at his watch. It was now past 1 p.m., and he was very sure that Schiller had never had the habit of taking a nap before, whether it was in the small clinic in the kitchen of Hell or in the SHIELD office. This At that time, Schiller should have been eating, or he had just finished eating and was taking a walk.

"Did he have lunch?" Steve asked.

The nurse shook her head and said, "He didn't eat breakfast either. He seems to have a little loss of appetite. I'm going to check the dosage of the medicine with the attending doctor to see if it is caused by the medicine..."

Steve's brows furrowed even more, because he knew that Schiller was not an ordinary human being. Real tranquillizers would not have much effect on him, and there should be no adverse reactions from ordinary people's doses of drugs.

The fact that Schiller did not eat on time was also quite scary. Steve always felt that Schiller was not like a typical American. He had great pursuit of eating and cooked every meal with his own hands. , never eats fast food, never orders takeout, and even frowns at the sight of a pizza box.

Thinking of this, Steve nodded to the nurse, opened the door gently, and walked in. As expected, Schiller was sleeping on the hospital bed, and he seemed to be sleeping deeply.

Steve's brows were almost twisted into knots, because he saw that although Schiller was sleeping soundly, he was not sleeping peacefully. His brows were furrowed and he seemed to be mumbling something.

Steve sat next to him, and the atmosphere in the room solidified for a moment. Schiller, who was asleep, didn't feel it, but when Loki opened the door and saw such a scene, he swallowed the words that were already on his lips. Went back.

Today, Loki is not wearing the formal attire he had before, but the traditional Asgardian attire. But what is more eye-catching is that he is holding a document bag that is common on Earth.

"Well, good afternoon, Steve, are you here to visit me too?" Loki stretched out his hand to say hello, but Steve rarely came to greet him. He just turned back, nodded to Loki, and then became worried. Look at Schiller who is sleeping soundly.

Loki walked over, came to the opposite side of the bed, glanced at Schiller who was sleeping, and at Steve who was full of worry, and he understood something instantly.

He wiped his face, turned into a sad expression, and then said: "Actually, I am also sorry, I came a little late..."

"You also know that the battle for the inheritance is a life-and-death battle. The conflict between Thor and me is getting bigger and bigger. I was imprisoned by him in the dungeon before. I don't understand what is happening on the earth at all, so I can't help. busy……"

Loki showed a somewhat guilty expression and said, "Schiller is also my friend. I am also responsible for what he is like now."

Steve raised his head and glanced at Loki. The guilt in his eyes didn't seem to be fake. In fact, Steve knew that in terms of relationship, those in the Alliance of Radiance were closer.

Especially the three giants of the Holy Sanctuary, Schiller, Loki and Strange. If Schiller and Stark have a pure friendship, and Schiller and Peter have a teacher-student relationship, then Schiller and Loki and Strange can be called a community of interests. In addition to friendship, there is also a cooperative relationship in business, so they understand each other better.

Since Loki has said this, it seems that there must be a big problem with Schiller's mental state.

As soon as Rocky finished speaking, Schiller's eyelids moved. Then, he opened his eyes in a daze. He took a deep breath and sat up, his face looking a little depressed.

He turned his head and glanced at Loki standing next to him, then turned to look at Steve sitting on the other side. Before Steve could speak, Schiller said to him: "Please go out first, I I have something to talk to Loki."

Steve showed a shocked expression. He had never heard Schiller speak to him in such a stiff tone, but Schiller kept staring at him with his eyes, and then pointed at the door.

What shocked Steve even more was that Schiller turned his head and said to Loki angrily: "Why do you want to come here now? Did you two agree?!"

"Wait..." Steve stood up and said, "Don't be angry, I'm leaving now."

In order not to irritate Schiller, Steve immediately stood up and left without even saying a few more words to Schiller. When Steve finally left and walked out of the range where he might hear the conversation, Schiller angrily hammered the pillow and said:

"It's just a stone in the pit, smelly and hard!"

He looked up at Loki with displeasure and said:

"Are you stupid? You actually bumped into Captain America, the conscience of the Avengers, and you were afraid that he didn't know that I sleep every day just to make harassing sales calls?"
