"What do you want?"

"Come back with us, doctor, and we will treat you."

"I swear, if you are really innocent, I will never hurt you, nor will I let anyone hurt you. I guarantee it with the honor of Captain America." Steve said seriously.

"I don't believe in the reputation of Captain America." Schiller also looked into Steve's eyes and said. He saw a trace of disappointment in Steve's eyes, and then he continued: "But I believe in Steve's reputation."

Rogers."

After saying that, he took the initiative to come up to Steve and said, "What are you going to do? Put handcuffs on me?"

"No." Steve shook his head and said, "It is precisely because I am unwilling to do this, to treat you with violence and a disrespectful attitude, to treat an innocent person who has not done anything bad, that why I did not directly

Take action."

Schiller stared into Steve's eyes and saw that there was still fatigue and vicissitudes of life there, which was nothing like the energetic eyes of Captain America in the past.

He sighed and said: "Steve, you know what? Now I stand in front of you and am willing to surrender, not because you or Stark really have the ability to threaten me, but because of you, Steve

husband……"

His tone became a sigh: "Steve Rogers, a truly good man."

Ten minutes later, Schiller sat on the only chair in the center of an office in the SHIELD underground base. It was not an interrogation chair, just a very ordinary armchair, so there was no restraint device, and neither was this place.

The interrogation room was just an empty staff office.

But Schiller still sat calmly on the chair, making no movement. He just looked up at the flickering light bulbs, quite like lying down and accepting defeat.

His very cooperative attitude made Stark not know what to say. Schiller did not look at Stark standing at the door. He still looked at the light bulb on the ceiling and said: "I think you should be here now."

I think if I fight with you, it will be more conducive to promoting the development of things."

"However, the situation of not knowing each other without fighting and letting go of grudges with a smile is not suitable for me. I don't like unnecessary consumption."

"If the outcome of a battle is that everyone can sit down and talk in peace, then it's best to skip this strenuous fighting process. How about you just treat us as if we've already fought and start talking directly."

"Are you aware of your other personality?"

Schiller nodded but did not speak. Stark then asked: "Who will show up first, you or him?"

"It seems that you have indeed studied a lot of psychology books, and you got the point right."

"So?" Stark had a bad feeling.

"He came first." Schiller told the truth.

Stark's premonition came true. The moment he heard the answer, he closed his eyes hard and cursed in a low voice.

"So, he is the main personality?"

Schiller shook his head but said nothing. Stark took a deep breath and said, "It seems that psychological treatment is more difficult than I thought."

"I've told you a long time ago that if the patient is unwilling to cooperate, then the psychiatrist can't actually do anything."

"Why are you unwilling to cooperate? Are you worried about what measures we will take to deal with your other personality?"

Schiller lowered his head, looked forward, looked at Stark and said, "You didn't understand a key issue. It's not that I'm unwilling to cooperate, it's just that I'm unwilling to cooperate with you because you can't cure me."

Stark took a few steps forward and came to the opposite side of Schiller. He looked down at Schiller from top to bottom, but he did not feel any pressure on him. He said: "I know, as long as

After studying theoretical knowledge for a few days, I can't be called a psychologist, but at least I can ask about your symptoms, right?"

"Tony, like Peter, you are not suitable to be a psychiatrist." Schiller tilted his head and said slowly: "This is not because you are not smart enough, nor is it because you have not systematically studied theoretical knowledge."

"What's that for?"

"Because you are too compassionate."

“Shouldn’t doctors be compassionate?”

Schiller shook his head and said: "In a sense, compassion is the fundamental motivation for becoming a doctor. It is precisely because of compassion for patients that one can learn complex and difficult knowledge to treat them."

"But in fact, if you get to the end of this road, you will find that excessively entering into the patient's situation and empathizing with them will only destroy yourself."

"Not to mention..." Schiller looked up into Stark's eyes and said, "You are still trying to treat me, Tony, this is very dangerous."

The look in his eyes made Stark want to retreat, as if he was the patient sitting in the chair receiving treatment.

Stark realized that some of the theoretical knowledge in the book was very difficult to apply in practice. For example, a condescending posture could not strengthen his confidence as a doctor, and this "patient" who was sitting in a chair receiving treatment

", more like a doctor than him.

Just as Stark was about to say something, his phone rang, and the screen showed a call from Steve. He paused, then turned and walked out of the office, answering Steve's call.

"Hey, I'm here with Bucky, you'd better come over."

"Why should I go there? To disturb you and your old best friend?"

"I'm not kidding, Tony. Bucky told me how Schiller's other personality kidnapped him and... I can only say that he is more dangerous than I thought. You'd better not rush to give him

treat."

Stark hung up the phone. He tilted his head and glanced at Schiller who was sitting quietly through the window above the office door. He put away his phone and strode towards the corridor.

When he came to the ward where Steve and Bucky were, Stark paused before opening the door. At this time, he heard Steve's slightly serious voice coming from the ward: "Bucky

, do you still remember what happened during this time?"

"Yes, I remember." Another hoarse voice came: "My memory is a bit broken and chaotic, but some of the fragments have been swirling in my mind..."

"Do you remember...Howard Stark?"

At this moment, Steve heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and Stark walked into the ward, as if he had just arrived. Steve immediately stopped the topic. He stood up and said to Stark:

"You'd better come and hear what Schiller did to him."

Stark stood there without moving, but glanced at Bucky, then at Steve, and said: "Are you sure he is awake now? I don't want him to stand up suddenly and give it to one of us.

Go up."

His tone was very unfriendly, but Steve didn't care. He said, "I was about to say this, do you want to know how he got rid of the brainwashing?"

Stark looked up at Steve, waiting for his next words. Steve looked back at Bucky and said, "Schiller not only kidnapped Bucky, he tortured him for 6 hours, and then..."

Steve swallowed, his Adam's apple trembling, as if he was remembering something terrible.

"In 6 hours, he completely tore apart the personality that was brainwashed by Hydra."

"He drove some wedges into Bucky's body..." Steve made gestures with both hands, trying to explain the process clearly, but Bucky's deep and hoarse voice came: "'Some' is not very accurate, he used

I bought more than 40 wedges.”

"If I had not received special modifications, I would definitely be dead by now, and it would be caused by pain."

Steve covered his forehead, lowered his head, and sighed deeply. He said, "No matter what, Schiller's personality is too dangerous."

"The word 'danger' is not very accurate either." Bucky's dry voice came again: "He is a madman."

"At the beginning, he woke me up. I thought he wanted me to suppress the brainwashed personality. But later, I found out that he just wanted me to witness all this. He wanted to find an audience to see him.

performance.”

"He tortured that personality crazy in front of me. I don't know how many pieces it broke into, but in the end, he was completely wiped out."

Bucky's voice seemed a little numb, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, but it sent a chill down Stark's back.

Bucky was lying flat on the bed. He moved his eyes away from the ceiling and looked at Stark and said, "I remember Howard Stark. I remember that I was ordered to cause a car accident and kill the couple."

"No, Bucky, don't say that." Steve turned back and stretched out his hand to stop Bucky from continuing, but Stark walked up and stopped Steve's movement. He looked into Bucky's eyes and said:

"Do you know who I am?"

"I know that you are very similar to him." Bucky closed his eyes and said, "The reason why I mentioned this topic is because, after that lunatic did all this, he told me that if I saw a person with

If you look like Howard, tell him all this."

"The death of the personality brainwashed by Hydra was very painful. Even as a spectator, it made me feel extremely scared."

"This is the reason why he woke me up before he did all this..." Bucky's hand held the guardrail tightly and said, "That personality has paid the price, and now it's my turn."

Steve heard an unusual meaning from Bucky's words. He quickly walked to Bucky's side, held his arm and said, "Don't be like this, Bucky, I think we can talk...

"

Bucky's expression has always been numb, as if he has been in a controlled state for many years and he can no longer make expressions, but Steve saw a kind of determination in his eyes.

"Someone has already paid the price for you." Stark glanced at Steve, and then said to Bucky: "You should be lucky that your friend, when faced with a choice that should have nothing to do with him,

The choice as always...sacrifice yourself."

Stark tilted his head to the side and said: "...a complete bad guy."

Bucky turned his head to Steve. He had guessed everything from Stark's words. He saw that Steve was in a very haggard state. He had a lot of problems due to sudden anxiety symptoms and continuous insomnia.

He has heavy dark circles under his eyes, a pale face, no blood on his lips, and red bloodshot eyes all around his blue eyes. He doesn't look like Captain America at all.

Bucky stared into Steve's eyes and said, "I've never seen you like this."

"Sorry, I'm a little tired recently. Maybe I'll be fine after a night's rest."

"No, I mean, I'm glad that the first person I saw when I woke up was Steve Rogers, not Captain America."

Bucky's numb tone finally had a slight fluctuation, and he said: "Forget those damn lies they fed you. The war is over, and there are only two of us left."

Steve's arms began to tremble non-stop again, and the various negative effects caused by acute anxiety have not faded away. This has made him very mentally unstable, seriously affecting his body control.

Stark interrupted everything in time and said: "What we want to discuss now is Schiller's status."

"It stands to reason that if that personality is also Hydra, he has no reason to help Bucky get rid of his brainwashing state." Steve sighed and said, "On the way here, I thought about it calmly.

.”

"If he is really Hydra, what kind of damage has he caused?"

Stark continued to think along his train of thought. He thought for a while and said: "Although the difficulty suddenly increased when we were dealing with Hydra, the final result was that we ran to the tentacle monster's lair.

There was a fight there and it was all ruined."

"My monitoring shows that Hydra seems to have died down a lot recently, and the number of cases that used to pop up incessantly has decreased a lot."

Steve touched his chin and tried hard to concentrate on thinking. He said: "Although he kidnapped Bucky, he helped him remove his brainwashing. If you ignore these violent methods, maybe only he can do it.
