Chapter 4: A New Generation of Soldiers
As soon as Kozo Okamoto's voice fell, the man spoke: "The underground world is not really a world built under the surface, but another world hidden under people's daily ordinary life, this world has the cruelty and truth of human nature, and it affects the lives of ordinary people all the time, but ordinary people don't know anything. ”
Kozo Okamoto smiled slightly: "Are you doing science popularization for me?"
"Of course not. The man's voice was hoarse, but not unpleasant, but somewhat magnetic: "There are countless mercenaries active in the underworld, performing various tasks for money or other purposes. That is, in the tragic battles of various missions, they will give birth to the king of soldiers, who is the recognized king of the underground world. In the underground world, the reliable generation of soldiers is Pang Jindong, and then Cang Hao. The two of them have a master-apprentice relationship, and they share the common nickname 'Blood Lion'......"
"You know what you're talking about. Kozo Okamoto shrugged, "Can you tell me something we don't know?"
Pang Jindong has retired, Cang Hao has also retired, the common denominator of the master and apprentice is the yearning for a plain life. As he spoke, this man took off his hood, and finally let others see his appearance clearly: "After them, another king of soldiers rose, probably out of admiration for Pang Jindong and Cang Hao, and he called himself the Blood Tiger." ”
Kozo Okamoto smiled a little sarcastically: "You can't be a blood tiger, right?"
"No, I'm Quinlan, known as the Night Demon because I like to attack in the dark. Quinlan said, pointing to the bone on his back and telling Kozo Okamoto: "I killed the Blood Tiger and made this out of his leg bone as a souvenir." Because only by killing him can I prove that I am a new generation of soldiers. ”
Qumran had a shaved head, and there were two longitudinal brown markings on the top of his head, which I don't know if they were scars or tattoos, making him look like a beast.
His face is always expressionless, making it impossible to get a glimpse of his inner mood swings, and his skin takes on an unhealthy grayish white.
Kozo Okamoto recalls that when he was held in the cell of Unit 731 for many years, his skin would appear like this.
In general, his appearance is very angular, but it is not clear which nationality he belongs to, and he has always spoken standard American English anyway.
He has dark blue pupils, which give people a very deep feeling, and his eyes are said to be beautiful in color, but they always exude the smell of death.
Kozo Okamoto was a little curious about Quinlan: "What other stories do you have?"
"My home country is a military junta in South America, and my parents were thrown into prison by the military for complaining about the government's curtailment of free speech, when my mother was pregnant. My father died not long after he entered prison, and my mother survived strongly, she had a belief that I must be born......" After a pause, Quinlan continued: "Do you know what kind of prison it is, it is actually an abandoned mine, and all the prisoners are thrown into the mine and left to fend for themselves. There are no guards there, because you can't escape at all, and there is no minimum medical and health guarantee, it is a lawless world, and it is a real underground world. ”
Kozo Okamoto questioned, "So how do you survive?"
"The junta regularly brings in drinking water and food, but it is never enough, so the prisoners fight each other for the limited amount of water and food. After a pause, Quinlan continued: "I said that it is a lawless world, there are no rules and emotions to speak of, you can't trust anyone, and your own strength is the only truth. My mother died not long after I was born, and I grew up in that environment, and the only thing I did every day was to make myself stronger. Because I have to live, but if I want to live, I have to be stronger than others. ”
"I have to say that your story appeals to me. After a pause, Kozo Okamoto asked tentatively, "Then how did you get out of there?"
"When I was a teenager, the rule of the military junta was overthrown and someone rescued me. When Quinlan said this, he smiled weirdly: "It wasn't until I was a teenager that I saw the sun for the first time, and my first feeling was that it was too dazzling." ”
Kozo Okamoto nodded: "Go on!"
"I'm used to fighting in the underworld, I'm not used to living in the sun, and I don't even know what I can do to support myself......" Qumran said, putting his hood back on, "So I became a mercenary!"
Rothschild told Kozo Okamoto: "Quinlan was recruited by us on the deep network and at a large price, and I believe it will definitely meet your requirements!"
Kozo Okamoto felt that Quinlan was very angry with him: "This person is good......"
"Don't be in a hurry to judge me just yet!" Qumran held up a finger and shook it slowly: "The reason why I am telling you my story is because I want you to know what kind of person I am, and no one can say 'no' to me, because everyone who said this word has been killed by me." I have my own set of principles for doing things, I don't need to be told how to do things, and I kill anyone who tries to be my teacher. Also, if you ask me to do things, you have to trust me absolutely, and I don't like people to question me......"
When Rondeblok heard this, he was a little unhappy: "You seem to have forgotten that we are the boss!"
"I haven't forgotten!" Quinlan said this, his eyes fell on Long Debrock, that is, as soon as he came into contact with Quinner Lan's gaze, Long Debrok actually shivered. Quinlan said coldly: "Do you think that if you take out the money, you can point fingers at me, no, the reason why I accepted this mission is because I have the opportunity to fight against the previous two generations of soldier kings, that is, Pang Jindong and Cang Hao." ”
Kozo Okamoto smiled: "Because it's challenging for you?"
"Yes. Kunlan nodded: "Only by looking at the heads of Cang Hao and Pang Jindong, I am a veritable generation of soldier kings!"
"I like this guy!" Kozo Okamoto told the two Jews without hesitation, "That's him!"
Rondeblok sighed, "It's good if you're satisfied." ”
"But I have a question...... "Kozo Okamoto said a little puzzled, "Mercenaries should have a whole team, and it is impossible for any soldier king to fight alone!"
"I don't have a team. Quinlan said coldly to Kozo Okamoto: "I also have a habit of being alone, every time I carry out a mission, I will temporarily recruit my own team members, and disband after the task is completed. ”
"I see. Kozo Okamoto nodded, and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, I can recruit a group of mercenaries on the deep network and be your subordinates." ”
Qumran agreed: "Yes." ”
Kozo Okamoto stretched out his hand to Quinlan: "So happy cooperation!"
Quinlan casually shook hands with Okamoto Kozo, and Okamoto Kozo almost jumped up in pain: "I'm sorry...... Please let go, you're pushing too hard!"
"I'm sorry. Quinlan said expressionlessly, "I forgot that you are more than a hundred years old. ”
Taking advantage of the fact that Quinlan and Okamoto were talking, Long Deblok whispered to Rothschild: "It seems that Quinlan is very interested in competing with Cang Hao!"
"I don't want the two of them to go to war. Rothschild frowned slightly: "Before we complete the Holy City Plan, Cang Hao had better not come to look for trouble!"
"Thank you. Kozo Okamoto nodded slightly, then got up and said to the two Jews, "I'm still going to be busy, so let's leave it at that." ”
Since Kozo Okamoto had already said so, the two Jews took their leave: "Goodbye." ”
After Kozo Okamoto sent off Rothschild and Rondbrok, he went to the vaccine production line, and during this time, Li Hongyou supervised the production of vaccines.
Li Hong saw the work and came to inspect it, and hurriedly reported the progress of the work, but Okamoto waved his hand: "I have confidence in you!"
Li Hongyou smiled flatteringly: "This vaccine is very valuable now!"
"Of course. Okamoto Kozo said proudly: "In order to get a vaccine, the Chinese people almost want to worship me as an ancestor, and Canghao even killed Hideo Sakakihara to blackmail me. But I don't want to give Huaxia too many vaccines, what do you think should I do?"
Li Hongyou immediately understood: "The Changzhou Pharmaceutical bombing case was actually done by yourself?"
"That's right. Okamoto said calmly: "Since the factory building has been destroyed, I naturally don't have too many vaccines, the Chinese people have nothing to say at this time, and I can be regarded as a small punishment for Canghao!"
Li Hong couldn't help nodding his head: "Taijun is smart!"
Kozo Okamoto was stunned for a moment: "Taijun?"
"I mean...... Mr. Okamoto is brilliant!" Li Hong gave a thumbs up: "Where is Cang Hao's opponent!"
"You Chinese people always call Dongying people Taijun, in fact, this is a bit inexplicable, Dongying language does not have this word, it is purely invented by you Chinese people. However, you have one sentence that is right, Cang Hao is indeed not my opponent......" Okamoto Kozo smiled coldly: "Vaccine production has indeed been affected, but the Chinese people don't know at all, I still have a production line in their own country." ”
"What should we do now?"
"Many mercenaries and terrorist organizations have contact information on the deep web...... "After a pause, Kozo Okamoto advised: "You have to find the contact information of the Red Army and the Blood Lion mercenaries!"
"Do you want to get in touch with them?" Li Hongyou was very puzzled: "You can find them directly, you don't need to go through the deep network, it's so troublesome!"
"I have my plan, you don't need to ask. ”
Li Hongyou hurriedly nodded: "Yes!"
"Also, get ready, pack the equipment, and ship it away. Kozo Okamoto told Li Hongyou: "It is necessary for us to transfer the production line!"
Li Hongyou didn't dare to ask anything more, so he only nodded: "Yes!"
