Chapter 1054: Shocking the Ordinary People (31)
The next morning, when Eddie got up, he found a pile of messy Christmas decorations on the table. He jumped up from the sofa, then hit his head hard and said, "Venom! Venom! Did you sneak out again last night? And you pulled down the decorations on the street?!"
"Are you stupid?" Venom's lazy voice sounded, as if he had just woken up. He smacked his lips and said, "Didn't you notice that the wrapping paper was thrown on the ground? These things are new, how could they be pulled down from the street? To me, you really have no detective talent. How could I have such a stupid host?"
Eddie rubbed his eyes with his palms in confusion, and said hoarsely, "New? How can there be new Christmas decorations? There are still a few days before Christmas, and I was planning to go out and buy some tomorrow..."
Just then, the door "clicked" open, and Thor came in with a bunch of bags, followed by Schiller. Eddie turned around and asked in confusion: "Where did you go so early in the morning? What's the matter with these decorations?"
"Yesterday, the dessert gift I brought was swallowed by Venom, and you and Schiller didn't even eat it. I flew to Norway again this morning to buy some more, but the store was holding an event, buying desserts and giving away Christmas decorations, so I bought a little more, this is a gift."
"I bought one more..." Eddie turned around following Thor's line of sight and found a whole wall of dessert bags. He took a breath and said, "How much did you buy? Can we finish it?"
Thor put his hand He put down the things on the ground, shrugged and said, "I landed in an alley in Norway. As soon as I walked out of this street, I met a few people who claimed to be photographers. They said I looked like Thor and asked me if I could be a model for them to take pictures."
"Although I don't understand why you humans like taking pictures so much, I still agreed. After that, he insisted on paying me. I said I didn't want it, so he gave me a membership card of a dessert shop with several thousand kronor in it, so I bought more."
Eddie's eyes fell on the things in Thor's hand again, and Thor also looked at the pocket in his hand. He said, "Oh, this is the material for Christmas dinner. You see there are turkey, steak, and some good fish..."
Eddie looked at him confusedly and said, "You don't Do you think there is something wrong with this? You are Thor, the god of thunder! "
Eddie yelled, "You are a god of the Norse pantheon! Why are you celebrating Jesus' birthday? ! ! ! !"
Thor opened his mouth and said, "So Christmas is celebrating Jesus' birthday? I thought you humans just found a name to make fun of it..."
"Well, that's true..." Eddie hesitated and said, "Last time our station held an event to interview passers-by about the meaning of Christmas on Christmas. At least half of the people didn't know that Christmas is celebrating Jesus' birthday..."
Thor shrugged, put all the packaging bags on the table, and then said, "You see, this is how you humans are. You can celebrate the festival with any excuse. Sometimes I envy you. Although you are weak, you are very happy."
"Thor, I take back what I said yesterday. You haven't changed at all. You always make people angry with your compliments. "Eddie also stepped forward, helped him sort the packaging bags, took out the contents and froze them in the refrigerator.
Schiller held the two bags in his hands and walked to the sofa. After putting the shopping bags on the table, he took out two cans of beer, three large boxes of cigarettes, a box of cigars, and two bottles of strange medicine.
At this time, Eddie remembered that Schiller had also gone out. When he turned around, he saw Schiller holding a handful of small pills and putting them in his mouth. He quickly stretched out his hand in that direction and shouted: "Venom!"
Instantly, black mucus surged out, and with a "whoosh", the pills in Schiller's hand disappeared. The next second, Eddie covered his neck and began to cough violently. He said: "What is this? Why is it so bitter? !"
"Cough cough! Cough cough cough!" Eddie coughed hard a few times, then began to retch again, half-knelt on the ground and pounded the floor and said: "Venom! Venom! Get that thing out! "
Venom started laughing gloatingly, and then he found that Schiller had opened another bottle of medicine. Eddie stumbled to the sofa, grabbed Schiller's wrist, shook off the things in his hand, and then turned to Thor and said, "Did you take Schiller to Norway?"
"I don't know. When I activated the teleportation, he suddenly came over. This is a range magic, so..." Thor shrugged his shoulders, glanced at Schiller's state, and said indifferently, "Didn't you just buy some wine? What's the big deal? This little wine is not appetizing enough in Asgard."
"He is a mental patient!" Eddie emphasized, "He is in the process of getting sick now. He must abstain from smoking and drinking, and can't take medicine at will!"
Thor thought of Loki's previous instructions, he shook his head and said, "You humans just think too much. In my opinion, what troubles can't be solved by a few bottles of good wine? "
"Forget it, Schiller, don't drink those tasteless beers. Next time I go back to Asgard, I will bring you our good beer. Asgard also has good tobacco, which is definitely stronger than the ones on Earth!"
"Thor Odinson!" Eddie patted the back of the sofa.
Thor turned back and stopped talking. Schiller kept using his fingers to pry open the mouth of the can, but he seemed to have no idea how to exert force. He couldn't pry it open for a long time.
Eddie said to Venom in his heart: "I remember that the teacher at the special education school didn't say that this disease would affect the limbs? Do you think we should read some professional books?"
"With your brain, you still want to study psychology?" Venom snorted coldly and said: "Let's go, turn on the computer, and look at mine."
Before Eddie left, he locked all the beer, tobacco and medicine that Schiller bought into the safe. Schiller sat on the sofa and felt sleepy, but his fingers were shaking.
Coming to the study, Eddie began to look up information. While he was looking, he read: "Symptoms of limb twitching... I didn't see it. Wait a minute, here, complications may..."
"Look, it says here that people with autism spectrum disorder can return to normal social life after certain treatments, but they must pay more attention to mental health than ordinary people, otherwise, the possibility of suffering from other mental illnesses or psychological problems is higher than normal people..."
As he read, Eddie's brows frowned deeper and deeper, and Venom said in his heart: "Isn't this normal? This disease cannot be completely cured, and their behavior will be a little different from that of ordinary people."
"And you humans, let alone different behaviors, even if the behaviors are exactly the same, you have to find other reasons to exclude others. If you are excluded in society and your mental state is unstable, of course you are more likely to have other psychological problems."
"I think , this won't work. "Eddie shook his head and said, "Although I didn't participate much in the solar system development plan, I also know that this psychiatrist is very important. What do you think we should do?"
Venom really hesitated for a while, and then said, "It's definitely not okay to let him stay in your house like this. Haven't you noticed? He now relies on alcohol, tobacco and drugs to numb himself, but this state can't continue forever."
"Don't Stark and the others care about him?" Eddie said angrily, "I remember that Schiller, Iron Man and Captain America are all friends? Don't these superheroes care about their friends?"
Venom suddenly "grunted" and whistled a few more times. Eddie said with some doubts, "...Are you hiding something from me?"
"No, you think too much. Let's think about how to treat Schiller, right?" Venom said with some guilt.
Eddie slid his mouse to browse the information and said, "I just happened to have something I wanted to do, but I'm not sure if Schiller's current state can help... Forget it, it's better to divert his attention."
After saying that, he put his hand on the cover of the laptop, closed the computer, walked out of the bedroom, and came to the living room. He found that Thor had already started to play with the Christmas decorations.
Eddie sighed, looked at Thor and said, "Have you noticed that you bought everything? There is only one thing missing..."
After that, he raised the string of colored lights in his hand and said, "Without a Christmas tree, where are you going to hang these things?"
Eddie clapped his hands, attracted the attention of the two, and said, "Since we plan to spend this Christmas together, it is better to decorate it well and make a big meal."
"But now, I have to take Schiller back to his clinic to get the luggage."
After that, Eddie was about to take Schiller out, but Schiller seemed to have returned to normal and was going to get his dirty coat. Eddie found him one of his own coats. Schiller showed a somewhat disgusted expression, but still put it on.
The two walked out of the apartment building. Because it was not far from Schiller's clinic, it only took two blocks to cross, so the two did not choose to drive, but walked there, but soon, Eddie regretted it, because Schiller fell ill again on the way.
He began to tremble all over again, mumbling, and even completely unable to control his upper body. He could only lean against the wall and take deep breaths.
Eddie, who has a symbiote, can also heal most of the external injuries, but he has no good way to treat the limb twitching and adverse reactions similar to withdrawal reactions caused by this mental state. He can only wait by the side and hope that Schiller will recover by himself.
Schiller squatted by the wall and couldn't control himself. Eddie looked at him and felt a little sad. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, reached out and touched the pocket of his clothes, and then cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, I forgot to bring cigarettes, Venom, why didn't you remind me?"
"Who said he wanted to quit smoking before?" Venom said unhappily.
Eddie sighed as he stood there, and then began to look around to see if there were any shops nearby.
But at this moment, a man with a leather bag in his hand and wearing a black hooded jacket suddenly walked out of the corner where Schiller was squatting.
The man didn't seem to expect to meet two people like this at the corner. He immediately took a step back warily and covered the bag in his arms. Noticing his movements, Eddie also became alert.
But at this time, Schiller began to cough non-stop, and then half-knelt on the ground and retched, as if the muscles of the respiratory tract suddenly twitched, making him unable to control himself, and then began to twitch his limbs, and then kept a movement, completely motionless, as if frozen there.
The man holding the package was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said: "Epilepsy, neurological epilepsy!"
Eddie rushed up to help Schiller, but the man dropped the package, then stopped Eddie and said: "Don't touch him when he is showing stiffness, otherwise it is easy to twist the joints, stay away from him..."
At this time, Eddie turned his head and saw that the zipper of the briefcase thrown on the ground by the strange man was torn open.
Looking through the gap, the briefcase was not filled with office supplies, but a large bundle of explosives.
