Chapter 3429: Son of Midnight (Twenty-Eight)
Danny had completely lost control of his body. He leaned over the steering wheel, trembling, and tried to keep his head down.
At this time, Schiller heard a female voice: "There's something wrong with that man. I'm talking about the man who just spoke to you. Some kind of magical power in him is affecting Danny..."
"Ms. Francis?"
"It's me. Take Danny away. He won't last much longer."
Schiller held the car door with one hand and Danny with the other, and looked back at Dario. It was hard to see his expression under his sunglasses, but from his body movements, it was clear that he was here to cause trouble.
Schiller stood up, slammed the car door, turned to look at Dario and said, "There is an appointment you don't want to go to, but you have to go. You want to find an excuse to miss the appointment, so that it will not cause serious consequences and you will not offend the person you invited. Do you think this is a good idea?"
Dario paused, his hands in front of him, one holding the ring on the other.
"I've heard of your name, Dr. Schiller." Dario seemed to know Schiller's identity. He said, "I heard that you are a psychological consultant for S.H.I.E.L.D. Since Nick is unwilling to solve the problem, I think you might be willing to help."
“I’m always happy to help,” Schiller said, “but you didn’t seem to ask Nick about my salary.”
"I'm the chairman of Roxxon Energy. I can give you any amount of money you want." Dario walked up to him without any hesitation, patted Shiller on the shoulder and said, "To be honest, I'm in some trouble, doctor. An annoying guy suddenly asked me to go to his company, but I have other visitors to wait for."
"This guy is also a well-known figure. If I refuse, I will inevitably offend him. But if I have an accident on the way, it can't be blamed on me if I don't show up on time. I can get away and do something else. If you are willing to help me, money or anything else is not a problem."
"Let Danny leave." Schiller tried to negotiate with him. He glanced at the vehicles coming and going behind Dario, and then said, "I can stay here with you to deal with this traffic accident, but my friend's situation can't be delayed any longer."
"No, no, no, doctor. A simple traffic accident won't delay you for long, and no media would be willing to report it. But if someone suddenly turns into a monster and goes crazy on the street, it will definitely become a big news tonight and tomorrow morning. I am also a victim of a super criminal's crime, so it's not my fault."
"He's not a super criminal," Schiller said. "So let me go. I don't want to be involved in this or be photographed by any media."
Dario put a hand on Schiller's shoulder, exerted a little force, smiled and shook his head and said, "That won't work, doctor. Only if a big internet celebrity is involved, the coverage will have breadth and strength. Besides, I heard that you are friends with many superheroes. That annoying guy will worry about you first, but he won't have time to take care of me."
"If you want everything, be careful that you end up with nothing."
"As long as you have enough capital, you will naturally have a good appetite to swallow everything." Dario withdrew his hand and turned to walk towards the car.
Schiller walked back to the car, and Jarvis' voice rang out over the car radio: "Would you like to remind Mr. Stark that you are in some trouble, doctor?"
"No need, I have a way."
Danny had completely lost his mind, and flames were blazing in his eyes. At this moment, Schiller's hand was on his arm, and silver power spread up along his shoulder.
"I can't delay for too long," Kong Su said. "The spirit of vengeance in his body is very powerful. It won't be long before it breaks through the blockade."
"It will be resolved soon."
Schiller took out his cell phone and made a call. Ms. Francis and Khonsu, who were watching from the side, thought he was going to call Stark or Captain America.
But Schiller picked up the phone and said, "Hello? Manhattan Police? My friend has a mental illness with aggressive tendencies and needs medical treatment immediately, but we encountered a traffic accident on the road and the other party did not want to let us go. My friend has a seizure and needs stability and restraint measures. Can you come over to help and contact the nearest psychiatric hospital?"
"Yes, we are not far from the intersection. The other vehicle involved in the accident is an extended Lincoln, which is very eye-catching. Okay, I'll wait for you here..."
In less than five minutes, two police cars drove over, one behind the other. One passed the accident scene and blocked the road at one end, while the other slowly approached from behind.
Schiller stepped out of his car, raised his hands and said, "I called the police. We need help."
Dario also got out of the car, waved his hand and said to the police: "Hey, this is our private matter!"
"My friend is ill and has aggressive tendencies. He has injured others before. I need you to give him a sedative immediately."
Two policemen got out of the police car, approached slowly with guns raised. Schiller immediately stepped aside. One of the policemen walked to Danny's car window.
Schiller had rolled down the window. The police saw Danny twitching on the steering wheel. The moment Schiller released his control of Danny, Danny sat up straight and turned to glare at the police.
Seeing the fire in his eyes, the police quickly stepped back and waved to his colleagues to stay away.
"Okay sir. We can call an ambulance for you, but you'll have to handle him on your own. We'll keep you as safe as possible."
"You can't let them go. They damaged my car." Dario said immediately, "This is not your job as a police officer. If you insist on protecting them, I will file a complaint against you!"
The police looked at each other and clearly wanted to back off.
The New York police are notorious. In addition to sting enforcement and violent enforcement, they are also particularly good at evasive enforcement. If they judge that the complexity of a matter is beyond their scope of responsibility, no matter how urgent the other party is, they will directly retreat to a safe range and then ask for support. When support does not come, they will do nothing, even if people die in front of them.
Dario was obviously a little proud, and he turned to look at Schiller. But while he was talking to the police, Schiller had regained control of Danny and moved him to the passenger seat.
Then, he got into the driver's seat, closed the door, stepped on the accelerator, turned the steering wheel sharply, and bypassed the police car blocking the way. The car rushed out in a flash.
This was the New York police's comfort zone. The two officers quickly got in their car and started chasing.
Schiller actually doesn't know how to drive fast. He always drives at the speed limit and is often honked at by others.
That's right, in the United States, the speed on the speed limit sign is roughly equal to the minimum speed of drivers. The probability of speeding on the road is about 99%. If you are significantly slower than the speed limit, others will honk their horns to overtake you.
Schiller was not driving fast, but the police did not dare to stop him. After all, there was a lunatic in his car who seemed to have super powers. If it exploded on the spot, the closer they got, the faster they would die.
Schiller slowly left the scene of the accident and headed towards the place he had agreed to meet with Wanda.
"Jarvis, call Wanda and tell her that I'm in trouble and ask her to help."
"Okay, I'll tell her."
As they approached the agreed location, Schiller slowed down. The two police cars behind him were still a little hesitant, not knowing whether to approach or retreat and wait for support, so they also slowed down and stopped on the side of the road.
At this moment, a red light flashed, and all the policemen in the car fainted. The red light flashed again, and Wanda appeared in the back seat of Schiller's car.
"What's wrong, Doc? Why are the police chasing you?"
"Things are a bit complicated. Take the kitten away first, and then check on Danny's condition." Schiller turned to him and said.
Wanda picked up the cat from the back seat, checked it, and found nothing wrong with it, so she put it in the airline box with the other three kittens, preparing to take it to the pet hospital for vaccination later.
She got out of the back seat, opened the passenger door and glanced at Danny. Her eyes flashed red, and Danny stopped twitching, and the fire in his eyes quickly died down.
"Something has disturbed the balance between the two souls in his body." Wanda's eyes flickered, as if she was looking at the other soul in Danny's body. The vengeful spirit that Kong Su said was very difficult to deal with was now as quiet as death.
"Did you drive here?" Schiller asked.
"Yes, I just drove here from Queens. There's not much traffic lately. I quite like driving."
"Lend me the car, ma'am. I have to go back and take care of some minor problems. I'll leave him in your care."
Wanda shrugged and said, "I still have to go get the kitten vaccinated, just let Jarvis watch him. Here are the car keys."
Wanda threw the keys through the car window to Schiller who had already walked out, then pointed over there and said, "That blue Ford over there."
"Thanks ma'am, I'll fill you up."
After saying that, Schiller got in the car with the car keys, turned the steering wheel and drove past several police cars nearby, all the way to the location of the accident.
It didn't take long for them to arrive at the original location, but the Lincoln was gone. It seemed that Dario knew he couldn't rely on Schiller, so he drove away to scam other unlucky people.
But Schiller had no intention of letting him go. He had already guessed who the annoying guy was, so he drove towards the Stark Building and looked for the Lincoln in the traffic.
The extended Lincoln was indeed very eye-catching. Schiller drove for less than 10 minutes before he saw the car on a ramp behind Chinatown. The damaged bumper showed that it was Dario's car.
Schiller stepped on the accelerator, changed lanes twice, and approached the right rear of Lincoln at the fastest speed. Then he accelerated suddenly, and then turned his head, and the left bumper hit the right rear door of Lincoln.
"Bang! Sizzle—"
The extended Lincoln is very long, and the impact from the rear caused the vehicle to swing out of control. The vehicle body suddenly swung to the left, and then the whole car turned sideways, almost flying into the flower bed behind.
But the driver of this car was also very skilled. He quickly turned the steering wheel to the left, and then used the torque of his whole body to swerve to the right. After shaking twice in succession, he managed to stabilize the car.
Dario, who was sitting in the back, leaned out of the window and looked back. Schiller's expression looked very cold behind the reflective windshield.
