The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

disappointment?

On the hospital bed, Schiller picked up a piece of orange and threw it into his mouth. While chewing, he said: Stark and Bruce are the same kind of people. Don't I know what their virtues are?

On the table, Pikachu struggled to open another orange with his short hands, but his eyes were hit by the splashed orange juice. He rubbed his big dark eyes, and then asked: Then you are going to stay here like this? To be honest, even if you are really mentally ill, being hospitalized here shouldn’t solve the problem, right?”

Schiller did not answer the question, but opened the drawer of the bedside table and said, Where is the remote control? I remember the nurse told me that this TV can be watched...

There is a TV on the wall facing Schiller's bed. This is rare. Generally speaking, there is no TV in the ward of a mental hospital because the TV programs are relatively mixed, with some pictures, sounds and lights. It may irritate the patient, but it may be because Stark informed the hospital in advance that the ward where Schiller lives is more like a convalescent ward, and it is expensive and has all kinds of equipment.

The hospital bed was raised, the fruit plate was taken, and the TV was turned on with the remote control. Schiller began to eat oranges and watch TV at the same time.

Just then, his cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and glanced at the number, then answered the call and said, Yes... you want to come over? Okay, I happen to be free now. You told me last time You were on a TV show, I was planning to watch it...

Schiller listened to Peter's helpless voice on the phone and pressed the remote control to change channels. Just when he finally found the variety show, there was a pop and a dull sound came from the window balcony.

Wow, the balcony door was opened, and Peter, wearing a Spider-Man uniform, walked in, took off his hood, and threw his schoolbag on the chair next to him. When he saw the program being broadcast on the TV, he shook his head with a complicated expression. , and then said: Actually, there is nothing to see...

Peter quickly walked around the hospital bed, high-fived Pikachu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, took the remaining half of an orange from his hand, peeled off a piece and threw it into his mouth, and then his facial features wrinkled together with soreness.

Schiller handed him the bunch of grapes in the fruit plate. After eating two ripe sweet grapes, Peter recovered. Seeing the hospital gown Schiller was wearing, Peter pursed his lips and sat down. Asked by the bedside:

Doctor, can you tell me what's going on?

Peter lowered his head, twirled his fingers and said, Before, I heard in the Avengers base that Mr. Stark said that you...

What did he say? Schiller asked in a relaxed tone.

He was discussing with the captain about getting you a doctor. They said you seemed to have some psychological problems. What's going on?

As he spoke, Peter looked up and looked around the entire ward, and then said, So, do psychiatrists also have psychological problems?

Of course, Peter. Schiller picked up another orange and said while peeling it: A doctor cannot heal himself. Many times, a psychologist is more likely to have psychological problems than a normal person.

Why? Peter asked curiously.

When you come into contact with various patients and listen to their stories, it often brings invisible mental pressure...

Psychological trauma is different from real wounds. It is not easy to notice when it has not accumulated to a certain extent, but once it breaks out, the accumulated negative emotions will widen the wound, leading to more serious consequences than usual...

Is this the case for you too? Doctor, do you also have psychological problems because of treating other people?

No, Peter, I don't have a psychological problem, but a mental problem. Didn't I tell you before? I suffer from savant autism. Although for some reasons, it has basically healed on its own, I am still a psychiatric patient……

Peter looked at Schiller who was lying on the bed and concentrating on peeling oranges. At this time, he did not frown and looked gentle. In Peter's impression, mental patients should be nervous and in pain.

Since you have recovered on your own, why are you still here for hospitalization? Peter asked, and he continued: You sent me the address of the new nursing home before, but I haven't visited it yet. I heard from my uncle, It’s a town with the most wealthy people, so the environment should be very good, right?”

You are welcome to come there at any time, but before that, let's talk about this first. Schiller pointed to the TV hanging on the wall with the remote control. At this time, a huge squiggle popped up on the TV screen. ——The Strange Man of New York.

The three-dimensional squiggles rotated for two weeks and then gradually shrank. The lights flashed. The host in a suit walked onto the stage and raised his hands to welcome the applause. The host wearing exaggerated sunglasses held the microphone and said in a high-pitched tone:

Welcome to New York TV's newest and best show - The Strangers of New York!

Countless cheers came from below the auditorium, lights flashed, and ribbons erupted. The camera zoomed in on the host's upper body. He first read an advertisement, and then said:

Please allow me to be here to tell you some good news, no, maybe there is more than one good news!

You should already know the first good news. Less than two months after it was launched, this program won the ratings championship!

This all depends on those strange people operating in New York. They have all kinds of magical abilities. They are strong, powerful, handsome, and cute. It's you, me, and everyone!

We all love these weirdos, right? With their quirky masks, brightly colored uniforms, and all kinds of funny code names, what's more fun than watching them have fun while doing the laundry at night? ?”

As a result, this brand new show has become the most popular rising star show ever on New York TV! And it's all thanks to you, the strange people, or superheroes, who move around New York!

Okay, there is no need to mention the past glories. Let's talk about another good news. Bob, the most famous talent scout since the show started, sent me some great news!

Guess who he met on the way to scouting? You will never believe that he met the famous Spider-Man!!!

The host's tone was almost breaking with excitement. Schiller turned to look at Peter, who shrugged and introduced:

This is a new variety show launched by New York TV station, called New York Strangers. There are 12 talent scouts in this show. They will search all over New York to find those strange people with special abilities, let them be interviewed, and even Visit their lives.”

What kind of person is this strange man? Schiller asked.

They are superheroes who have special abilities and are responsible for fighting criminals. There are a lot of them in New York recently.

Peter scratched his head and said: There are more and more superheroes wearing uniforms and masks, but most of them are ordinary people, but occasionally one or two do have special abilities.

The talent scouts will communicate with them, understand their stories, and show their lives to the audience...

In a previous issue, they interviewed a mutant who used special abilities to fight criminals, which caused a lot of controversy. As you know, mutants have never been very popular. Some people were surprised to learn that there were also superheroes among them. , some people feel very scared...

But this has brought a lot of popularity to this show, making it the most popular variety show now.

Schiller touched his chin, looked at the host who kept introducing the rules and procedures, then looked at Peter and asked: So, you participated in this show?

Actually, I didn't participate on purpose. Peter sighed, and then began to tell what happened yesterday.

After Schiller was killed by Amit, the Iron Demon Stark shook the seals of all the gods on the earth, causing many demons to escape. The mysterious forces of various countries on the earth gathered urgently, and in Kama Taj and the Earth Defense Network With the cooperation, most of these demon gods were stewed.

However, this incident still has some aftermath. After the seal in the city or suburb is broken, the surrounding residents will be affected to some extent. Some people have ghosts in their homes, and some people are delirious.

The mages sent people to solve most of the problems, but due to the chaos that occurred for a period of time, the crime rate increased and the police were overwhelmed, so superheroes such as Spider-Man helped fill the gap.

Ever since the two super heroes Iron Man and Spider-Man became a hit in New York, there has been no shortage of imitators. Most of them just imitated the appearance, but some did have special abilities.

Being willing to become a superhero, even just pretending, shows that this person essentially wants to do good things, and when encountering chaos, many of them stand up to fight criminals and help the police solve troubles.

Therefore, the group of superheroes began to be more active in the public's field of vision, and New York TV Station seized this hot spot very well and launched a variety show called New York Strangers.

Since confessing their identities to Gwen, Peter and Gwen's relationship has quickly warmed up. However, Peter has to be busy with his superhero career and also take care of the research in the Connors Laboratory. Gwen begins to look for internships, participate in summer camps, and prepare for... While preparing for their own university, both of them were very busy, almost like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and they couldn't see each other for a week.

Just yesterday, after finally finishing the work at hand, Peter heard that Gwen was also on vacation. The two of them were overjoyed and prepared to go to the exhibition after a long absence.

However, just because he was too excited, Peter didn't take the spider silk launcher when he left Connors' laboratory, and it would be unreasonable to go into the sewer before going on a date with his girlfriend, so he walked directly through the streets and alleys, planning to Run to the rendezvous location.

But just in time, the strange talent scouts in this variety show were searching the streets for these superheroes.

In the past, popular chickens like Spider-Man and Iron Man were always high and low, either flying in the sky or swinging upstairs. However, it was impossible for ordinary talent scouts to get in touch with them. Therefore, although this show has received It has attracted a lot of attention, but has yet to find a real red and purple superhero as an interview subject.

The talent scout met Spider-Man by chance and was so excited that he almost had a heart attack. The way he rushed up to him made Peter almost think he was a robber.

But then, he explained the purpose of his visit, which made Peter a little interested. After all, he grew up in New York and watched New York TV programs with his uncle and aunt since he was a child. He was still full of yearning for being on TV. I heard that it was just It was a simple interview and he agreed without thinking too much.

At this time, the host on the TV screen raised one hand, the camera panned upward, and the screen switched to a table in front of a Mexican stall. Schiller opened his eyes slightly, and Peter said helplessly:

I don't know how that talent scout dared to go to Hell's Kitchen, but anyway, I met him at the place where we had tacos before...

Having said this, Peter sighed helplessly and said, Then he reminded: Doctor, you'd better turn down your voice.

Turn it down? Why? Are you speaking loudly? Schiller asked with a smile.

At this time, the bearded talent scout's rough voice came from the TV screen:

Look at our Spider-Man! The best superhero in New York! I'm your biggest fan and if you don't sign my T-shirt later, I will go home and cry with my teddy bear... …”

Peter on the screen was laughing so hard, the two clinked their drink glasses, and then officially started the interview.
