Chapter 388: Worker Bees
There are so many nicknames that it's normal not to have a fixed one, but for Gao Yang, they definitely need Tommy to have a fixed nickname.
Gao Yang smiled at Tommy, "Do you have a nickname that you use a lot or a favorite nickname?"
Tommy was silent for a while, then nodded: "I don't have a favorite nickname, as for the most popular nickname, for some reason, I don't want to use it, in recent years, people I know have called me Worker Bee, I think, just continue to use this nickname." β
Ulyanko screamed and said, "Aha, I know, the bee that Zaikhov is talking about is you, or is it a killer bee or something? If he tells me about killer bees, I will know who he is, and he should have called you by your nickname, not Tommy." β
Cui Bo said curiously: "Killer bee?
Bruce said seriously: "Killer bees are terrible, I think Tommy's nickname is killer bees, it must be because after he fired the cannonballs, his enemies knew that the road was in trouble when they heard the sound, and many cannonballs fell at the same time, so that people had nowhere to hide, just like when the killer bee was attacking people, when you heard the sound of the killer bee flapping its wings, it meant that you were going to be stung, Tommy, is that so?"
Tommy shook his head with a smile and said, "No, no, I'm not called a killer bee, my nickname is a worker bee, this nickname has nothing to do with my skills, it's just a summary of my life state and lifestyle." β
Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is only a wrong name, no wrong nickname, and your nickname must be called Worker Bee for a reason." So. What is the reason?"
Tommy pondered for a moment. "The nickname of the worker bee was given to me by Zaihoff, who said that I am like a worker bee in a colony, working hard for the reproduction of the whole colony, without the right to mate, without offspring, and taking on different tasks with different ages. Nursery, build nests, collect honey until you die while defending the hive. β
Cui Bo shrugged his shoulders and said, "Hardworking little bees? β
Tommy said in a deep voice: "No, it's not a hard-working little bee, it's a killer bee, a worker bee of killer bees, for a swarm, I'm a worker bee, for any species outside of a swarm, I'm a deadly killer bee." β
Gao Yang clapped his hands. "Alright, that's the end of the discussion about nicknames. We still have a lot of important things to deal with, and now let's talk about whether or not to go to Colombia. β
After Gao Yang finished speaking, Grolev said in a deep voice: "We have already discussed it last night, let's take this task, although the rainforest is indeed very annoying, this is a rare and expensive job." β
Gao Yang nodded and said, "Now I have received new news, let's make a decision after I have introduced the latest situation, Tommy, you are new to joining, but you can also express your own opinions."
According to the information we have so far, we are hired by a front of the Colombian National Liberation Army (FNN), which is also a drug lord, and our enemy is a front of the largest rebel force in Colombia, the armed forces, and the situation is very complicated, and the area where we are going to fight this time is not yet determined, but the known area is the north-west of Colombia, which includes a large area of the Andes Mountains and plains rainforest. β
Grolev frowned and said: "The Colombian Revolutionary Forces and the Colombian National Liberation Armies are the two largest and strongest rebels in South America, what I don't understand is, why do these two rebel organizations fight?"
Gao Yang shook his head and said, " Although the Colombian Revolutionary Forces and the Colombian Revolutionary Forces are still nominally large anti-government organizations, they are actually very loose internally, and now there is a Colombian Revolutionary Forces front expanding its territory, and a front under the Colombian Revolutionary Forces has been attacked, so we have to find mercenaries to fight back, we can see the fight between them as a war between two drug lords, not two rebels, in addition, our task is to kill a big drug lord who nominally belongs to the Colombian Revolutionary Forces camp, whether it is a forcible attack or assassination, as long as the drug lord is killed, our employer will give moneyγ β
Grolev nodded and said, "Can you get more detailed information?" Such a task may sound simple, but in fact it is very difficult, without detailed information, it is difficult to make accurate judgments. β
Gao Yang smiled bitterly: "Now, the only thing that can be determined is that the target designated by the employer to be killed has enough obvious characteristics, the employer has a photo of the target, as long as the person on the photo provided by the employer is killed, even if the task is completed, but there is no more detailed information, our employer does not know much about his enemy, and even the exact trace of the enemy is not mastered, and the lack of sufficient intelligence is the biggest difficulty we face." β
Li Jinfang also frowned, and said: "The situation is not good, such a vague task, we can't take it, not to mention anything else, the employer asks to kill the local commander, but how can we confirm the results of the battle? Could it be that we shot the target from a long distance, but we still have to get close to take a picture to confirm it?"
Gao Yang shook his head and said, "The employer will send someone with us to participate in the operation to confirm whether we have killed the target, this is the only way." β
Cui Bo frowned and said: "It sounds actually capable, but how do we get our commission? The employer who will give the commission first probably won't agree, but if you give the money after the fact, don't make any extraneous complications at that time, so we have to understand whether our employer is reliable before we can make a decision." β
Gao Yang looked at Ulyanko, and Ulyanko shrugged his shoulders and said: "The employer is still relatively reliable, in addition, my colleague in the Americas is willing to be a middleman, that is, the employer first gives the money to my colleague, if you complete the task, my colleague will pay you the commission, if you fail to complete the task, my employer will return the money to the employer, of course, my colleague must be reliable, I can vouch for him." β
Cui Bo smiled: "It's okay to have the middleman, now I have no problem." β
Grolev and several of them have also expressed their willingness to go to Colombia, and now they are waiting for Gao Yang to make the final decision.
Gao Yang sighed and said, "This time it's a big job, but if we go to Colombia, we will definitely face jungle warfare, but jungle warfare has greatly weakened our equipment superiority, and we don't have experts in jungle warfare, brothers, this is a battlefield that we are completely unfamiliar with, have you considered this?" (To be continued......)
PS: In the end, I decided to use Killer Bee as Tommy's nickname, and I would be unlucky when I heard the sound, which is really in line with the situation where the mortar shells fell.
The reason why there is no direct use of killer bees as a nickname, but a nickname for bees, well, it has something to do with Tommy's reason for being a mercenary, and I will explain it to you later.
Finally, thank you to the brothers who gave Tommy the nickname, although I can only choose one to use, but thank you very much for your participation, well, next time I have a nickname that I can't figure out, I'll ask you to help, ha.
