Chapter 64: Reminiscences

Hanako picked up the wine glass in front of her and drank the wine in the cup for a long time, as if she was recalling the long past, and as if she was looking for the words to begin.

Li Jun and the others didn't speak, just sat there quietly and watched Huazi.

Finally, Hanako opened her mouth and began to tell her story: "My name is Wang Chao, and I used to be a soldier. ”

This answer was expected by Li Jun, and he could guess it from the skills he showed when he cleaned up those little gangsters before.

Wang Chao continued: "I am an orphan. I remember when I was very young, I used to worry about what to eat, and this continued until I was discovered by my master. ”

"That day, the master went down the mountain on something, and he happened to see me in the garbage heap and grabbed food with wild dogs, and he saw that I was pitiful, so he took me back to the mountain. Since then, I've been able to eat a full bite of food every day. In addition, the master will teach me some martial arts and metaphysical things every day. ”

Just said the beginning, Li Jun and the others were already completely attracted, which is completely a plot that can only be found in martial arts novels.

"When the master found me, he was not young, and it may be that he felt that there was not much time left, so in the following time, he tried to teach me everything he knew without reservation. ”

"With human power, after all, it is impossible to go against the forces of nature. Although the master lived for a much longer time than the average person, he finally left me forever when I was fifteen years old. ”

"After the master passed away, I stayed alone in the mountains for two years, practicing the exercises taught by the master every day, and my life was quite happy. But in the end, I couldn't bear the loneliness and came to the bottom of the mountain. ”

"I have been living in the mountains for many years, and suddenly I came to the bottom of the mountain, and I couldn't adapt to it for a while, although I didn't have to compete with wild dogs for food like when I was a child, but I also suffered a lot. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Chao stopped, reached for the wine glass on the table, and Li Jun hurriedly filled it for him.

After drinking, Wang Chao continued: "After that, I met another important person in my life besides my master. ”

"He was an officer and was in charge of conscription. I was wandering the streets when he took a fancy to me. They began to encourage me to join the army, and I really didn't have a place to go at that time, so I agreed in a vague way. ”

"After entering the army, the life of the boot camp began. This kind of intense training is nothing to me who has been practicing martial arts in the mountains since I was a child, and all my grades are among the best, so it is natural that I am favored by the special operations forces. ”

"After the boot camp ended, I joined the special operations forces, only to find out that the company commander was the officer who persuaded me to join the army in the first place. And then I stayed under him for years. ”

"I really like the atmosphere of the army city, where there are my relatives and brothers who accompany me from birth to death. Together, we have accomplished many tasks that would be impossible for ordinary people. Wang Chao had a smile on his face, probably remembering the good times when he was with his brothers.

At this time, Li Jun finally couldn't help it and asked, "Since that's the case, then why did you leave?"

Amalia and Ye Mindong both nodded, they were equally curious.

Hearing Li Jun's question, the smile on Wang Chao's face disappeared without a trace in an instant, replaced by bitterness.

He picked up his glass and drank it down and said, "Originally, I thought I would stay in the army for the rest of my life until I was too old to go out on a mission again. But the world is unpredictable!"

Wang Chao's words aroused Li Jun's curiosity even more. Li Jun didn't dare to interject again, and after filling the wine glass for Wang Chao, he quietly waited for the following.

"That was my last mission, and my comrades-in-arms and I were ordered to go abroad to maintain peace, and it was my company commander who led the team. Of course, he is now the battalion commander. ”

may be the need for secrecy, Wang Chao did not say where he went to maintain peace, Li Jun and none of them asked, just listened quietly.

"Maybe it's because we've had almost no problems in the past, so we've been a little too complacent and haven't been able to face up to our opponents. There, for the first time, we encountered a tricky enemy. ”

"By the time we started to face up to the opponent, it was too late, and the team led by me and another comrade had already fallen into the trap of the opponent. ”

Speaking of which, Wang Chao's eyes, which originally radiated a dazzling light, were completely replaced by anger, but soon, anger turned into sorrow again.

"For the sake of our two squads, the battalion commander personally led people to rush in, and finally succeeded in rescuing us. But unfortunately, the battalion commander died during this operation. ”

"The battalion commander's behavior was an unauthorized action, and after the sacrifice, not only was he not rated as a martyr, but he was criticized by his superiors. Of course, our comrades-in-arms who have been with the battalion commander for many years can't agree, especially the people of the two squads rescued by the battalion commander, who are even more aggrieved for the battalion commander. ”

"The army has the rules of the army, and it can't be broken because a few people make trouble, and we understand this, but we can't get over this hurdle emotionally. In this way, the matter got bigger and bigger, and in the end, the superiors could only fire a few people who took the lead. ”

Even without explanation, Li Jun could guess that Wang Chao was also one of the expelled people, he was not only the battalion commander's old subordinate, but also the leader of one of the squads rescued by the battalion commander, he must be the one who made the most trouble.

"Come, drink!"

Li Jun didn't know how to express his feelings, so he could only toast Wang Chao.

After drinking, Wang Chao continued: "After leaving the army, I was a little idle, and the battalion commander died, so I was a little depressed, and I lived in the anesthesia of alcohol every day, and finally became the appearance you saw before." ”

Li Jun was stunned, no wonder when he saw Wang Chao twice, his body exuded a pungent smell of wine.

Wang Chao continued: "In the days after leaving the army, many retired comrades-in-arms also introduced me to jobs, most of them were bodyguards for some wealthy people, and the treatment was not bad. But after meeting with the employer, I didn't accept any of them. ”

"Why?" Amalia had already been attracted by what Wang Chao said, and she couldn't help but ask questions when she heard this.

Wang Chao glanced at her and said, "I don't want to be driven by those who only recognize interests, it's as simple as that." ”

At this time, Li Jun couldn't help it, and asked, "If I shouldn't ask, why are you willing to help me three times or twice?"

Wang Chao had a weird smile on his face, and his eyes stared at Li Jun without blinking.

Just when Li Jun felt furious, Wang Chao said: "That's because ......"
