While Schiller's disappearance was still being discussed in Nick's office, Stark sighed and said, "He deliberately played vanishing to make us worry and lead us to him, and if we do what he wants, there must be a whole bunch of messy plans waiting for us behind it." ”

"I'm also not in favor of everyone going to Schiller." Nick sighed and said, "I also think that his disappearance must be justified, it would be bad if we rushed to him and disrupted his plans, but we can't do nothing, so that we are unprepared when his 'big surprise' comes." ”

"In this case, you guys should do what you should do step by step, I will arrange for agents to look around the earth, and then contact Loki, so that he can see if there is any trace of Schiller in the universe, and always pay attention to Schiller's movements."

A few other people, you look at me, I look at you, I think this is the best solution, after all, everyone is very busy now, and no one can do nothing for a big plan that may exist and look for people all over the world.

"At the end of the day, Dr. Schiller won't hurt us, will he?" Peter said back to Steve as he walked.

And Steve shrugged his shoulders and said: "Every time Schiller prepares a big surprise, it can make a big step forward for the civilization of the earth, but if the way it is announced is not so terrifying, we will not be so worried." ”

Everyone else walked out, but Eddie stayed in Nick's office, and he sat down across from Nick and said to him, "I've rethought a draft of the plan for the documentary I mentioned to you, and you'll see how it goes." ”

Nick took the stack of papers from Eddie's hand, skimmed through them carefully, nodded as he looked, and then looked at Eddie with a slightly surprised gaze and said, "I'm amazed at the long-term of your vision, Mr. Bullock, this kind of group-based documentary is indeed much more vivid than a personal biography." ”

Nick sat down, holding the stack of materials in one hand and putting on his glasses in the other, and said as he looked at it: "It always seems a little thin and pale to tell what someone's personality is from the perspective of God, but it is much more vivid if it is accompanied by a scene restoration and a small story that combines the background of the times." ”

"But that's not as good as a lot of people in a group who evaluate each other and show their connections from a multi-faceted perspective, and people like to talk about their relationships more than superheroes themselves, right?"

Eddie put his hands on the table and said: "I think the same way, when I used to work at the Global Times, I often listened to my colleagues talk about the relationship between Iron Man and Captain America, some people said they were close, some people said they were enemies, they had their own opinions, and heated discussions always broke out." ”

"Complex polyamorous relationships are easy to attract attention, and there will be a lot of topic flow for the discussion of the relationship, which can also ensure economic benefits, but the upfront investment will definitely be large, and it will require the cooperation of all parties."

Nick pushed his glasses and said, "Don't worry, S.H.I.E.L.D. will make sure that the superheroes under our jurisdiction cooperate with your shooting, but unfortunately Dr. Schiller is not here now, otherwise he is the best person to coordinate the relationship between the parties." ”

"Oh, actually, he came up with the idea." Eddie was afraid that Nick would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "This is not my plagiarism, he proposed a rough framework, and I supplemented the draft details on this basis, but it was indeed Schiller's idea." ”

Nick's eyes immediately widened, his eyeballs rolled slightly, put down the document in his hand, looked into Eddie's eyes and said, "Are you sure this was Schiller's idea?" ”

Eddie nodded, he didn't understand why Nick suddenly changed his attitude, but soon Nick reined in his emotions, handed the document back to Eddie, and said, "You go and improve the plan for the first phase first, I'll raise funds, coordinate the staff, how about we see you next Monday?" ”

"Of course, if there's any problem, I'll call your office."

As soon as Eddie left Nick's office, Nick got up from his seat and strode to the secure phone desk, pulling the phone cord with one hand and holding the handset to his ear with the other.

"Hey, Natasha, come to my office now."

Soon Natasha rushed over, and when she saw Nick's serious face, she was a little puzzled, and Nick looked at Natasha and said, "Have you heard the news of Schiller's disappearance?" ”

Natasha nodded, and the female agent shrugged a little indifferently, and then said: "Schiller must be planning some kind of plan again, anyway, no one in this universe can hurt him, there is no need to worry." ”

"Yes, he must be working on some plan, and I've gotten hints from him."

Nick sat back at his desk and picked up a piece of paper and said as he wrote and drawn, "As soon as we found out that Schiller had disappeared and gathered here to discuss, Eddie stayed behind and gave me a draft of the documentary that Schiller had come up with, and this was the clue he left me, he must have wanted me to do something with him." “

Nick tapped his fingertips and said, "The question is what the documentary project has to do with his disappearance, and what am I going to do......"

Natasha sat across from Nick, her forearms folded on the table, and she knew that Nick needed the other side's perspective to help him clear his mind, so she said immediately.

"I've heard about ABC's shooting plan, but I remember that the general concept they came up with at that time was to shoot biographies of key people, but after all, this project was an important project in progress, and they didn't know what the scale of the shooting was, so they found Eddie."

"Eddie approached Schiller with the idea." "But it's not surprising," Nick said, "and if there's anyone who knows the superheroes of New York best, it's Schiller." ”

Schiller thought this was a good thing, but he revised the content of the project, from shooting a personal biography to turning it into a unit drama for a shooting group...... That's right, that's the point. ”

Nick frowned, and said while thinking: "If you shoot a personal biography, then the emphasis must be on the personal charm of a certain superhero, but if you shoot a group biography, it will inevitably involve the conceptual thinking and membership relationship of a certain team......"

"There are quite a few superhero teams, but we don't pay much attention to them." Natasha frowned and said, "Since the solar system development plan was implemented, the focus of S.H.I.E.L.D. has shifted from intelligence to coordinating people and resources on Earth and making space development as efficient as possible, and we have indeed not paid attention to the situation of the New York superhero team for a long time. ”

Nick sighed and said: "Schiller will not be untargeted, it seems that there may be some problems with the superhero team in New York, put down the work at hand first, send a few teams to investigate, before tonight, I want to see the details of all the teams." ”

Natasha was ordered to leave, but before it was evening, she returned to Nick's office with a large pile of papers, and her brow was furrowed and her expression was serious.

Nick immediately stood up at the sight of Natasha's expression, it had been a long time since the Earth had entered a period of rapid development, and he had not seen such a solemn expression on the face of this black widow.

"What's wrong?"

"The situation is not optimistic."

Natasha shook her head, took out two documents and handed them to Nick, and said, "The agents have investigated all the superhero teams that are now stationed in New York, and unfortunately, more than eighty percent of the superhero teams exist in name only, including the Avengers you formed. ”

Nick's eyes widened slightly, and he looked down at the information in his hand, and the most notable data was that the Avengers' base had not submitted any logistical requests for cleaning needs for more than three months.

In the past, the hypocritical Tony Stark would ask S.H.I.E.L.D. to send ten or eight cleaners to clean the base thoroughly every time an Avengers member used the base.

This means that the members of the Avengers haven't been there for at least three months, not even a battle meeting.

He looked at the remaining investigation report on the superhero team in Natasha's hand, there were more than sixty superhero teams under the jurisdiction and funding of S.H.I.E.L.D. in New York, the vast majority of which were squads of five to ten people, and the reports submitted from logistics showed that about sixty percent of the team had no signs of activity in the past three months, and the members were missing.

And the remaining 40 or so superhero teams within the monitoring range have also reduced their activity by 50 percent compared with a year ago.

Nick frowned and said: "This may be because the law and order situation in New York has improved dramatically, especially those super criminals who are beyond the scope of ordinary people to deal with have almost disappeared, and without super criminals, there is naturally no need for superheroes, let alone a team of superheroes united." ”

"So what are we going to do now?" Natasha asked.

Nick paused, sighed, and said, "The Superhero Registration Act isn't necessarily entirely bad, at least it gives us an idea of which superheroes are controllable and which aren't. ”

"Those superheroes whose abilities are completely controllable and can choose to be ordinary people, we should naturally advise them to return to their original lives, but if their original abilities and personalities are unstable, disbanding the superhero team will make them more likely to become security risks."

"If the superhero team is forcibly retained, those superheroes who have already returned to a peaceful life will definitely not be forced to go to the party, or the stability and instability factors in a team will cause conflicts and cause even more chaos."

Nick touched his forehead and said, "I was busy with my feet in the previous year, and I went to look forward to the stars, and I actually forgot that New York still has such a big trouble to solve, but fortunately Schiller reminded me." ”

"I guess he can't bear it anymore." Natasha smiled and said, "Don't forget, those superhero teams funded by us don't work and eat logistics funds, how can Schiller endure this?" ”

"I can't take it either." Nick walked out from behind his desk, straightened his tie and walked out the door: "Inform the departments, and in ten minutes there will be a meeting on the topic of integrating and reorganizing the New York superhero team." ”

"By the way, make a call to the captain and ask him to come over and participate in the meeting, if we want to build a new superhero team system, we need a leader, and he is the best person."

"And what about Iron Man?"

"If he wants to come, he'll pay for the cleaners first, and he won't want to eat my logistics money anymore, haven't I lost enough?"
