Chapter 2687 Hollywood Rhapsody (19)

Chapter 2661 Hollywood Rhapsody (XIX)

It turns out that ordinary people are hypocritical, and Schiller is no exception.

He hates restarting the universe because it is to erase the meaning of the existence of the living beings in the universe and negate the efforts they have made to survive.

But when it comes to himself, he thinks it is not a bad idea to negate the efforts of himself and his friends a little, because if he doesn't do this, they will have to make more meaningless efforts to clean up the mess caused by the current situation.

Of course, Schiller is not crazy enough to restart directly. His idea is actually to let Barry take him through time to remind himself who wants to take a vacation like an ordinary person not to be too optimistic. It is better to stay in the sanatorium and fish, and don't go out if there is nothing to do.

Because Schiller is not sure that he can convince himself, he needs some evidence to prove that if Schiller goes on vacation, it will cause a series of chaos later, and the best evidence is the documentary shot by Eddie.

Schiller is now at a point in time when he has become famous and the documentary has been publicly screened, so he directly copied the video materials and some important short analysis videos, as well as many rumors released by marketing accounts, and returned to the day before he set off for the West Coast.

He slapped these things on Schiller's desk. When Schiller saw Barry, he understood what was going on. Looking at these video materials again, wow, the Internet celebrity turned out to be me.

To be fair, Schiller didn't want to get into such trouble at any time, and Schiller, who hadn't set off yet, had more free time to think about what this chaotic situation would lead to.

To be honest, as many people have analyzed, working for law enforcement is not something shameful. As a professional technician, it is actually difficult to bypass this step.

At least many teachers and classmates that Schiller knows have had such experiences. Whether in the previous life or this life, it is inevitable to cooperate with some official agencies, and even participated in many confidential projects.

But his family knows his own business. The biggest problem now is that he didn't know that his background story was copied in his previous life and he made up another background story for himself, that is, he is an immortal Soviet.

He can participate in the work of the FBI as an American, or even as a Chinese-American hybrid, but he cannot participate in the work of American law enforcement agencies as an immortal who survived the founding of the Soviet Union.

Then the FBI and SHIELD can't help but ask, what do you want to do? What have you done? After you did it, why are you still hiding it so that we can't find anything?

This is similar to the fact that what is more terrifying than a cockroach appearing in front of you is that this cockroach appears in front of you for a second and then disappears.

Schiller can fully understand the fear of Nick and the FBI director. If he knew that he had such a background story, he would not make up the latter set.

But the two petty guys, Superego and Pride, dug such a big pit for themselves to jump in order to avenge their memory deletion. How long have they finished making up the origin of this Soviet man before they know what the background story of this body is.

If you say it's just a simple background story conflict, it's okay. Anyway, Schiller has never said what happened to his past. Everything is speculated by others. If there is a contradiction, just deny it.

But these two background stories are well combined.

Nick couldn't find out why Schiller worked for law enforcement agencies in the first place - there must be some reason, just like in his previous life, because Schiller didn't seem to be someone who liked to deal with law enforcement.

Didn't Nick know his colleagues? The jobs they could offer were basically low pay, high workload and far from home. No matter which one, it was a recruitment condition that Schiller stayed away from. How could Schiller be so kind to do such a job?

In this case, there must be something shameful, just like the reluctant experts that the FBI often recruited. There must be some opportunity for Schiller to work for them willingly.

But Nick couldn't find it out.

This is actually because Marvel is a comic world, and everything that is not focused here is presented according to the logic of comics.

There is a term in comics called storyboards, which can be understood as the lens in a movie. The lens is pointed here, and the story is shown here. If it is not pointed here, there is nothing here.

The explanation of a story is divided into many storyboards, and the time jump between the storyboards may be very large. For example, the previous storyboard is a shot of his childhood, and the next storyboard he is already a young man.

So how to show the ten years in between? Many times it is through the dialogue of the characters, such as when he looks back on his childhood after becoming a young man and talks about what he did when he was a child.

From common sense, it can also be known that a good comic book cannot use thousands of storyboards to show every detail of a character from childhood to adolescence to youth. The logical structure of the comic world does not support this.

So the background story written by the superego that conforms to the logical structure of this world is also presented in the form of comics, that is, the whole story is only edited in a few storyboards.

It is probably about going to school in college, going to church to pray, attending celebrity banquets, drug addiction, and working for law enforcement.

Although it seems that there are few storyboards, the main feature of Marvel comics is a large amount of content. There are too many characters. Many characters only have one or two storyboards in major events. It is quite remarkable for a character to have his own origin story. Many of them have accumulated a nearly complete origin story over decades.

Schiller's origin story, which was made up by the superego, is already very complete, but it is inevitable that many scenes are missing, such as why Schiller worked for law enforcement in the first place.

Some people may think that if it is placed on other characters, Nick will definitely be able to find something if he checks it now, because this is required by the plot, but the premise is that the character must be a native Marvel character.

Nick is a character created by Marvel itself. When he has a plot need, there are naturally universe managers and editors who will help him to compile other people's background stories so that he can further advance the plot.

The problem is that Schiller is not a Marvel character. His background story was written by the superego. Marvel's universe manager will not be idle to help him compile the details of the background story, and the superego did not write it, so of course Nick can't find anything.

So this incident will become a perfect misunderstanding.

Schiller may be an immortal Soviet. Before he met these superheroes, Schiller had dealt with law enforcement agencies for some mysterious reasons that could not be investigated.

And it was because of this resume that he was able to join S.H.I.E.L.D. and become a psychological consultant for superheroes. He even completely reversed the situation through his own deterrence during the Superhero Registration Act.

Does it sound like a very complete conspiracy?

In fact, this is indeed a complete conspiracy, but it is not a conspiracy of greed, but a petty superego and arrogance.

If it were in the past, Greed would definitely slam the table and argue with them about how they could be so petty. Forget about making it up, at least open up the memory to me so that I can prepare in advance.

But in the matter of deleting memory, he himself was in the wrong, so he could only admit it and take some more double-standard actions to stop this from happening in advance.

But it turns out that this kind of comic world does not allow time travel to prevent tragedies from happening.

After Schiller decided to stay in Arkham Sanatorium, a bunch of people came to invite him tirelessly, hoping that he would take a vacation.

Schiller wanted to send them away on the grounds that he was busy with work, but everyone felt that Schiller couldn't be so busy, and it would not be good for his mental state, so they had to take him on vacation.

Schiller knew that he couldn't go, so he pretended that his mental state was really bad, and everyone was more worried. After all, Stark didn't plan to go.

In the end, Schiller asked Helen and the Guardians of the Galaxy to cooperate with him in acting. There was some chaos in the universe that Schiller had to solve, so Schiller was able to get away and not participate in the filming.

As a result, because there was no Schiller to mediate and persuade Steve and Peter to help each other to balance the relationship between Stark and Strange, the gunpowder smell between the two of them was outrageous, and finally broke out on the beach.

Stark was already angry because he failed to attract everyone's attention with his surfing skills. Strange was still mocking him. Steve and Peter were busy chatting with the new warriors and didn't even notice that the two of them were about to fight.

Stark didn't wear armor at the time, but he had worked out after all. Strange could use magic without wearing anything, but after all, there were so many people here, so he couldn't fight, so the two of them ended up in a draw.

When the two were fighting, the Sandman came, and this time it was Strange and Stark who were praised.

Strange instinctively used magic to protect himself, but the magic interfered with Stark's path to the armor, and the armor directly smashed into the restaurant and bar next to it, causing a big mess.

This incident was on the news that day, and the reputations of the two were completely ruined. Stark was still anxious and refused to admit his mistake. The two of them started to argue, which led to a more severe decline in public opinion.

As expected, the trouble fell on Pepper again. Pepper wanted to persuade Stark to apologize, but Stark refused to do so. The two had a big fight, and Pepper was so angry that she was hospitalized.

When the news broke out, Schiller knew that it was not good. Now that this group of people got together in this state, they would definitely cause trouble. After thinking about it, he felt that he had to go.

So he asked Barry to take him back to the past and bring all the media and news reports of the first timeline, which was the timeline when Schiller became famous, and the second timeline, which was the timeline when Stark and Strange became famous together, to Schiller in the third timeline.

Schiller No. 3 knew at a glance that he had to go to the filming, because except for him, it would be difficult for others to deal with Stark in this state, and it would turn into a chaotic situation no matter what.

So he chose to go to Hollywood for vacation with a few people, but this time his strategy was to keep silent as much as possible, not to show his professionalism, and to be a small transparent person that no one cared about, so that he should be able to protect himself and not cause trouble.
