Three days later, in the suburban town of Dude, Xialin District, two military vehicles parked steadily in front of a house.
Immediately, the eyes of the people in the town who did not have a lunch break were attracted. The mayor and the sheriff of the town, who got the news, appeared beside the military vehicle the moment the door of the military vehicle opened.
"Mr. Colonel, is there anything I can do for you?"
Looking at the middle-aged man in the military uniform in front of him, the mayor asked attentively—although, as the mayor of a town, he always said what he said in the whole town, but that was only in the small town, facing the military Senior officials, he does not have that kind of right and courage; after all, unlike other systems of the highest government, most of the people in the military are known throughout the highest government system for their honesty and ruthlessness; even if he only heard some rumors , but it was enough to make him cautious.
The sergeant was more direct. After saluting, he bowed and stood aside, as if he was waiting to be dispatched—even though the police had been dispatched from the military system at the meeting ten years ago, Executing his own rights alone; however, it is obvious that such orders are not fully implemented, especially when facing some middle-aged policemen, they have long been accustomed to the original method; for example, the one in front of him The sheriff of the town.
"Sheriff, is this Old Del's house?"
Undoubtedly, compared to the mayor, the colonel in front of him also favored his "own people" more. After nodding with the mayor, he asked the sheriff standing beside him.
"Yes, sir!"
Facing the questioning, the sheriff of the small town instinctively straightened his body and shouted a loud answer, just like ten years ago.
"Very good, Mr. Sergeant!"
The colonel nodded in satisfaction; he turned around and walked towards the military vehicle—when he was not separated from the military system, the positions of the police were basically arranged according to the rank of the military, and the sergeant was the rank of the sergeant.
The mayor of the small town who stood aside faced the conversation between the sheriff and the colonel, although he kept a slightly humble and peaceful smile. However, the slightly disturbed look in his eyes from time to time shows that the mayor of this small town is not as peaceful as his smile shows—as the mayor of the town for 30 years, he only has a few years left to retire , any disturbance will make him tense his nerves; after all. In the thirty years of his career as mayor, it is not that he has no plans to seek further progress. He also had the impulsive passion when he was young; but when he saw the miserable end of those better colleagues. He hesitated.
Opportunities wait for no one, and just as he hesitated, everything was settled; some people skyrocketed and sat in positions he could not have even dreamed of, but most people fell into better positions than himself. colleagues. An even more miserable end—compared to his colleagues who are just pawns, those who are really remembered are those who appeared later; When he ended up miserable, he finally chose to give up, and sat obediently in his position as mayor, waiting to retire.
Afterwards, it undoubtedly proved the correctness of his choice-victory and defeat are always mutual. Nobody wins all the time; those who do get high. In the first few years, they were really proud of the spring breeze, with unlimited scenery; but in the next few years, they were knocked down one after another by the turmoil in the highest government system, especially in the few years of their prosperity, it is inevitable to offend others. Therefore, in the end, they all ended up in a situation that was even more miserable than those opponents at the beginning.
After seeing such a situation, the mayor became more determined in his choice. Manage your own town well and never get involved in any dangerous 'activities' - so. When he saw a military colonel appearing in his small town, the mayor's heart was already in agitation; for him who could retire soon. He absolutely does not want to see any accidents.
And when he saw the colonel, walking to the side of the military vehicle, and reporting respectfully; the old mayor's heart straightened up in his throat—for the inspections sent by the highest government every year, he was only equivalent to a major at the military level. Officials; the colonel, for him, the mayor of a small town, is a great high-ranking official; and now looking at the colonel's attitude, it is obvious that the person sitting in the military vehicle is an even more remarkable person.
Could it be a general or the speaker of the military? !
The old mayor, who has long been out of the circle of top government officials, can only judge his guesses by his military rank; therefore, when he saw the people getting off the military vehicle, he couldn't help being dumbfounded—the one who walked in the front He was a thin man with a thin body and face. Although his dark blue body was very military-style, it was difficult for people to associate him with the rigid military that he always showed when he coughed from time to time.
Behind is a young man. Compared with the middle-aged and thin man before, this man in front of him makes everyone, including the mayor and the sheriff, feel more like someone from the military or the army—a well-dressed man. Military uniform, lieutenant's rank star shining brightly in the sun, although he was on crutches, but the wounded leg was wrapped, which gave this slightly elegant young man a trace of iron blood unique to a soldier.
Of course, it was the last young woman who puzzled the old mayor the most; the long golden hair was dazzling even under the night sky, and the appearance that made all the men in the town stare straight. , which made the mayor swear that this is the most beautiful person he has ever seen in his life, even the secretaries accompanying the inspecting officials who he has always considered beautiful are not as good as the young woman in front of him; The disadvantage is that it is too cold; being swept by those expressionless eyes, all the people in the town feel uncomfortable, and they turn their heads and look away.
However, this did not make the townspeople's discussion any less, on the contrary, it became louder and louder - although as the outer suburbs of Dude, it is not far from the bustling metropolis that is so dazzling that any New things will spread here quickly; but compared with all new things, the existence of the military with its own mystery is undoubtedly more attractive to them; especially, after seeing the colonel correcting After getting out of the car, the respect of the three people was like the attraction of flowers to bees, which made them unable to stop.
Although they couldn't understand the true meaning of the rank of colonel like the old mayor, but for them, this rank was high enough, higher than all the existences they had seen. And that's enough—the buzz is getting louder, especially when one or two of the townspeople with good eyes see Del's face clearly. This kind of discussion has reached a new height, even under the obstruction of the old mayor, it still cannot be stopped.
"Look, the young man in the middle should be Old Del's son, right?!"
"True or false. You can't read it wrong, can you?"
"How could I be wrong? Last time I was a guest at Old Del's house, I saw a group photo of their family on the cabinet in the living room!"
The townsman who spoke first heard the rebuttals around him, and immediately yelled loudly.
"Really. Old Del's son?! But didn't Old Del say that his son was working in Port Saas? How could he be a soldier?"
"Some secret missions of the military, of course you can't talk about it; even your parents can't say it!"
Faced with doubts, the townsman who was still the first to speak immediately explained, and after seeing the stunned appearance of the people around him, he immediately smacked his neck; Became a shrunken quail—Thirty years is enough to make the prestige of the old mayor who maintains and builds the town wholeheartedly accessible to five people in the whole town; coupled with the advantage of being a local, the whole town Except for a few long-lived existences. Almost all of them are juniors of the old mayor; even some guys who usually do nothing and cause trouble. If the old mayor is really angry, he will immediately become obedient and dare not make any rebuttals; unless you really don't want to stay in this town any longer.
"Mr Colonel..."
Seeing that the townspeople had calmed down, the old mayor, who was guessing uneasy, looked at the former colonel.
"Lieutenant Del, retired because of a mission injury. On behalf of the military, we will send Lieutenant Del home!"
The colonel's words finally dispelled the old mayor's last trace of doubt; he turned his head. Looking at Del on crutches, he showed the most sincere smile—the last thing he didn't want to see happened. Instead, a hero was ushered in. Of course, the old mayor had reasons to be happy; after all, with the existence of such a hero with a military background, those inspecting officials would definitely restrain themselves; This year's inspection officials have already appeared cautious.
Therefore, the old mayor couldn't help but look more eagerly at Del.
"Lieutenant Del, our hero, welcome home!"
"Have a drink and go home!"
Although he has withdrawn from that circle, as the old mayor who has stepped into that circle, he certainly understands what to say at this moment; and at this moment, the prestige of the old mayor has also played its due role, and the townspeople have followed everyone. Shout out—As for the old Del couple who only moved here two years ago, and their son was in the town for the first time, this kind of thing has long been selectively forgotten by everyone; even if someone brings it up, He will also be spat on by others with contempt, and cursed at the white-eyed wolf who eats inside and out.
In the face of such shouts, it is impossible for the old Del couple on their lunch break to still be immersed in sleep; listening to the continuous cheers, the two old people slowly walked down from the bedroom on the second floor, opened the door curiously. The door on the first floor; then, they saw the son who made them dream and feel sad—although the protagonist in the cheers had been heard before, the two old people didn't think of it for the first time. Their son; a huge remittance every month for ordinary people, as well as unknown words in every letter and telegram, especially a move two years ago, made these two old people very concerned about their son. I had a rough guess as to what I was doing.
There is no better way to know a child than a father, and no way to know a child like a mother.
Some inadvertently exposed abnormalities are enough to make the parents who instinctively care about their children notice—as time goes by, the two old people even had a premonition that they suddenly received bad news about their son one day; and after this premonition appeared, the two did not want to The passive old people began to prepare. They were going to Saas Port to find their sons; however, knowing that their son had been involved or involved in something, they did not go straight to Saas Port blindly. Instead, he used the money remitted by his son every month as the fund, looking for a channel that would not affect his son, and leave the town without anyone noticing and enter the port of Saskatchewan.
Obviously, such a channel is too difficult for the two old people who are not professionals; it can be said that they have no clue; however, the two old people did not give up. After spending a lot of time and money and still not finding the corresponding channel, the two old people continued to search until they saw their son when they opened the door.
"Del?!"
Seeing the older faces of my father and mother. With completely gray hair, Del, who was on crutches, almost rushed to his parents regardless of his injuries, and hugged the two old people to his chest. He whispered softly: "Father, mother!"
Years of longing and depression in my heart melted into my eyes when Del embraced the two elderly people; tears flowed down his cheeks, including tears that only Del knew; and the sudden appearance of his son also made the two elderly A frightened old man. Can't help crying.
clap clap...
Starting from the old mayor, all the townspeople, including the colonel and Moretti, gave the family in front of them a round of applause.
"Old Mr. Del, Del is the glory of our entire town, a hero!"
The words of the old mayor made the old Del couple finally see the military uniform on their son; the colonel came over amidst the surprised expressions of the two old men.
"Dell was specially recruited into the military because of his excellent grades after graduation; because of the special discipline. He couldn't clearly mention it to his family and friends; please forgive me! Now, Del has completed his task, He was allowed to retire honorably by the military! And his excellent record and glorious history will surely become a role model for the next generation of special recruits!"
Undoubtedly, compared to the words of the old mayor. Mr. Colonel's words are even more powerful; the joyful expressions of the two old people are from the inside out. Unabashedly.
Looking at the family hugging together again, Moretti greeted the colonel. He and Lilith got into the second military vehicle, and left silently first—their task this time was to cooperate with the military to fulfill one of the requirements put forward by the Nord family; now that Del has been delivered smoothly, their task will naturally be completed That's it, the military is responsible for the rest of the finishing touches.
As for them
In the bay area, Fort Landing is their next mission location—and compared to the mission just completed, this next mission is the top priority for them.
…
"Has the military become so rotten?"
The blond girl sitting in the back seat still had a gloomy face, even when talking to Moretti, the boss she once respected, she was cold - yes, it was the boss she once respected; when the other party asked her to go to Landing After receiving the order from Fort, the original respect suddenly collapsed in the blond girl's heart.
As a member of the Secret Service who is free from the government system and the military and is only responsible to the highest government, the blonde girl is undoubtedly proud, especially as she is relying on her own strength to achieve this achievement step by step as a woman At that time, that kind of pride can always make her stand upright when facing anyone; therefore, for those same-sex people in the government system and military who sell their bodies to gain status or complete special missions, I instinctively , the blond girl had disdain deep in her heart, especially when facing the former, she even showed disdain.
Therefore, when she knew that she was about to become such a member, that kind of blow instantly shattered all the pride she had insisted on, and even the suffocation that occurred at that moment made her feel like dying. The point—from that moment on, the blond girl's originally resolute face became cold; the gray eyes like a deer became even more lifeless; the smile never appeared again; facing anyone is business Office look.
"If you make a mistake, you will be punished, and making up for the mistake is the most correct attitude!" Looking at the appearance of his former subordinate, Moretti sighed helplessly in his heart, and then explained to the other party in as much detail as possible: "Then This young man deserved it for what he did that night in Port Saas!"
"Then I deserve to pack me up and give it to Ye Qi?"
Moretti's last words immediately received a mocking response from the blond girl—and after she finished speaking, the blond girl straightly turned her head to one side, staring blankly at the scenery outside the window.
As for sad tears
The only thing left in her, the pride of being able to be independent, is not to let herself cry.
ps I just breathed a sigh of relief after being busy with official business, and suddenly found that my clothes were not washed, and the window glass, floor, bedding, etc. at home were not touched; moreover, I will go back to my parents tomorrow on New Year's Eve; I can't help but feel sad Come from the bottom of my heart!
Therefore, after three seconds, the decadent gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and made a decision not to wash or tidy up—anyway, there was still a suit of clothes replaced by the decadent foresight as a reserve; , come back and wash
