Chapter 1887 Schiller Disappears Again (Part 2)
In the office of the Interstellar Security Committee, Thanos looked up from the pile of documents, took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes and sighed, but the secretary who pushed open the door brought new documents.
Most of the documents related to interstellar security are sealed in special storage devices. One device can store a large amount of information, and such devices in front of Thanos have piled up like a mountain, which shows how busy he has been recently.
In fact, Thanos has been working overtime for a week, and judging from this situation, he may work overtime for even longer. The physical and mental consumption is nothing to the Titans, but Thanos just wants to figure out one thing-where the hell do so many cases come from?
Thanos flipped through the device next to him, and one holographic projection after another popped up on it. The text can be called messy and the pictures are also confusing, but Thanos also knows that he can't expect more. Even if the officers in the entire security bureau have four legs, they will have to run three of them at this time.
Most of the seven cases that popped up in the file were local wars. Generally speaking, although interstellar security matters include war mediation, they basically only mediate large-scale wars. Some small frictions in the region are ignored and cannot be managed.
But the location of the war is not some remote countryside, but the border of the old and developed civilization around the Ring Star Region. Although it is a border, it is also a very prosperous civilized star region, not those dark star systems where people often sue each other for sovereignty.
Logically speaking, after tens of thousands of years of development, the pattern here has been quite stable, and there is no border dispute at all.
But these cases are either important figures being assassinated and the murderer fleeing, or disputes about marriage, or the loser of the struggle for succession running away. They are all events that touch core interests and negotiations cannot reach any results. After many times, the border areas are naturally ready to move.
Since Thanos has risen rapidly in the interstellar social and political system, he has been particularly concerned about his career. After all, the Ring Star Region is the center, and he is also paying attention to the prelude of these cases.
His previous evaluation of these events was that although there were unstable factors, they would not erupt in a short period of time. For the time being, they only needed to keep an eye on them and did not need to intervene. They were also somewhat powerless to intervene.
As I said before, any so-called joint political system is actually controlled by the more powerful existence in the group. Whether it is the Interstellar Alliance Parliament or the security department, they are actually completely controlled by the three empires. The old civilization union also got involved. It is always controlled by others and it is difficult to play a role.
But who knew that there were so many mines in this area, and they were all detonated in just a dozen days. Compared with dealing with these disputes, Thanos wanted to know who was so capable that he dared to stir up trouble under the noses of the three empires.
Thanos took the new file from the secretary, and the secretary specifically mentioned: "The Special Service Department has marked several important figures. You can take a look."
Thanos nodded, lowered his head and began to search on the equipment, and indeed found some photos taken by the Special Service Department.
The Security Committee is not an intelligence department. Most of the time, it only mediates open conflicts. However, this series of events is too complicated, so Thanos has to arrange personnel to investigate the cause personally. The special service officer sneaked into many banquets under the pretext of mediation and locked several suspects.
Thanos slid down the picture and memorized the appearance of these key figures in his mind, but suddenly his fingers froze because he saw a familiar face in the picture.
Thanos hurriedly pressed the power button, looked up and was a little dazed for a while, then quickly stacked the equipment in his hand with the other equipment that had just been delivered, put it at the farthest point, took off his glasses, and stood up from the chair.
Thanos called the secretary a few times, and when he heard the call, he walked in. Thanos stretched out a hand and said, "How much vacation time do I have left?"
"Why do you ask this suddenly? Uh, well, you still have two months of vacation, and if you add the diplomatic invitations later, you can probably save up three months..."
"Prepare the spaceship, I'm going on vacation!"
The secretary looked at him in amazement, and Thanos also looked at him with wide eyes. The two stared at each other for a few seconds. The secretary asked in confusion: "You are going on vacation now? But... but the interstellar area..."
Thanos had already come out from behind the table, and said as he walked: "Do you remember the principles of interstellar security work? Maintain interstellar stability and respect the fate of civilization. Now it's time to practice the second half of the sentence."
"But where are you going on vacation? "
Thanos paused while buttoning his coat. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Where is the most remote vacation spot that other committee members often go to? It has to be a place where no one lives."
"That... that's probably Earth."
"Change it!"
"How about Centaurus? The gambling industry there is very developed, and it is prosperous overall. There are many official reception venues and entertainment centers. Many committee members will go there to play a few games when they don't have enough time during the holidays..."
"Is there a place farther away from the solar system? !"
The secretary said with some embarrassment, "The most remote place within our official itinerary is the Milky Way. The civilization in the Laniakea Supercluster has never been very developed. If it weren't for the beautiful natural scenery on Earth, no one would go there..."
Thanos sighed. He thought about it and felt that since Schiller chose to go to the ring-star area to cause trouble, it means that his target this time is not on the earth. The so-called most dangerous place is the safest place, also known as under the light. Hei, maybe hiding on the earth at this time is a clever move?

Thanos also knows that there is no better choice. After all, five-star General MacArthur said that as long as Schiller leaves the earth, no place in the universe will be absolutely safe.
Thanos thought for a while and felt that the earth was Schiller's home after all, so if something happened it wouldn't be a big problem. More importantly, if he hesitated, he might not be able to escape.
Thanos made up his mind and said directly to the secretary: "Prepare the spaceship. I am going to Earth for a three-month trip. No one can contact me before the trip is over. I will leave the work in the ring star area to Orlo. I know that guy with eight hands has been staring at my position..."
Thanos got on the spaceship like his butt was on fire. After the spacecraft started moving, he remembered that there was no one to receive him even if he went there, so he had to say hello to the local residents.
Thinking of a local steel demon living on the earth, Thanos's head started to hurt again. It's true that the earth doesn't create myths, so how can all human beings be so capable?
After thinking about it, Thanos still called Asgard first. After being polite to Heimdall who answered the phone, he said: "I applied to the Security Committee to go on vacation to nine countries. Our official ship has already taken off. Sorry, I'm really presumptuous to bother you, but it happened suddenly..."
Heimdall hurriedly asked what was going on, and Thanos pretended to smile bitterly and said: "Something happened over there in the Ring Star Zone, but for safety reasons I can't talk more about it. I wonder if His Majesty the God King can approve my entry permit... …”
Heimdall immediately went to send a message, and it didn't take long for Asgard to reply, expressing a warm welcome. When Thanos' official ship landed at the port of Asgard, Loki personally brought people to greet him.
"What brought you such a busy person here?" Loki smiled and hugged Thanos and said, "Last time I asked you to go to the hot springs and drink under the World Tree, but you were always busy with official duties. How are you lately?"
Thanos rolled his eyes and said as if he was joking: "How could I be so busy without you? Forget it, let's not talk about it. I have to find your brother quickly. The situation in the Ring Star District is not right, so you have to hurry up. Be prepared.”
Loki has long expected the alliance between Thanos and Thor. Asgard needs an introduction to return to interstellar society. Thanos, a lonely Titan who has no backer, also needs a strong force to support him. In addition, Loki It can help Thanos establish his power very well, and the interest alliance between the two parties is already very solid.
The two of them chatted and entered the Asgard. All Loki who worked in the Asgard seemed to have seen a ghost when they saw Thanos swaggering in. Loki looked around and winked, and then all the Loki who wanted to watch were turned away. They all drove away.
"I don't want to hear about any good things I did in other universes." Thanos directly intercepted Loki's words and said: "I will give a medal to those who killed you in other universes. Just write How about 'Cosmic Security Guard'?"
"Then you have to find a good stove." Loki crossed his arms and sneered, "In most universes, you are the one who kills me."
"Then half of the medals should be written with 'removing harm for the people'."
The two walked into Thor's palace all the way. Thor obviously changed his clothes in a hurry and walked out without taking the crown. He frowned and looked at Thanos and said: "What's going on? What's going on in the Ring Star District?" Is there something urgent going on here that warrants your trip?"
"I should ask you this, Your Majesty, what are the plans of the Nine Kingdoms in the Ring Star Region? Why didn't you tell me before taking action?"
Thor and Loki looked at each other. Loki shook his head slightly at Thor. Thor thought for a moment and then looked at Loki. Loki thought about it and shook his head.
"You don't know either?" Thanos asked tentatively.
Both of them looked at Thanos. Thanos cleared his throat and said concisely: "...I saw Schiller in the Ring Star District!"
"Cough cough cough cough!" Loki almost choked to death on his own saliva.
Thor patted Loki on the back, looked at Thanos and asked, "What did Schiller do there? Are there any recent movements among humans?"
Thanos shook his head and said: "We don't know yet. I just know that he is fanning the flames all over the Ring Star area and is about to turn it into a big battlefield."
"I was worried that he had another desperate plan, so I quickly took leave and ran out, leaving the mess to my competitors."
Loki secretly gave Thanos a thumbs up. Thor shook his head, led Thanos to sit down and said, "Whether it's official business or private travel, since you're here, Asgard will not neglect its guests. It's just right." Loki is fine recently. He will take you to visit the nine kingdoms, and then go to Earth to stay for a few days. The environment there is very suitable for recuperation..."
Thanos and Loki were still talking about their next trip when they walked quickly out of Asgard. Loki's idea was to spend a few days in Asgard first, then visit the dwarf kingdom of Frost and the Underworld, and finally go to the World Tree. Take a dip in the hot springs and then set off for Earth.
Loki, who was looking around, heard that Loki of this universe was going to take Thanos to Earth, and he immediately geared up. Shouldn't he take it down on the spot?
And Thanos was still muttering: "I have a bad feeling. I always feel that this is not a coincidence. I just had a competitor in the Security Committee, and Schiller started this drama. I wonder if he has his own views on the interstellar security situation..."
"I think this may be related to Asgard." Loki nodded and said, "I hope I am worrying too much."
Little did they know that in all the circles that had heard of Schiller's glorious deeds, the "sickness coming for me" was spreading from person to person like never before.
For a while, everyone in the universe was in danger, except for the Molecule Man who was really the first to bear the brunt.
