Chapter 4 The Future
Back to the pot? Am I making people take the blame? You dare say there's no element of luck at all. Ochoa said unconvinced.
"What does luck have to do with God? Do you mean that God is luck? Morris looked at Ochoa and said.
"Alright. All right... Donovan saw that they could quarrel over such a trivial matter, and quickly stopped: "Can you not be so excited?" Aren't you afraid of a crack in the wound? ”
"I wasn't excited. I'm just telling him that he shouldn't trust any God, let alone be a security guard. Morris said and looked at Ochoa and said, "I'm doing this for your own good." ”
"Don't you believe in God? I thought Americans believed in God. Ochoa asked, looking at Maurice.
"Leave God alone." Donovan said, "Mr. John will come to see us in the afternoon. Chili if you want to stay in Hermet I can help you talk. ”
"What can I do?" Ochoa said: "Of course, Hermet's salary is high, but it is also dangerous, I definitely can't do it now, even if my body recovers, I don't plan to do it." That night was horrible. Seeing you all fall one after the other, it feels like I don't want to have it again, let alone go through it again. ”
Ochoa's words silenced everyone. Indeed, no one wants to have that experience again, besieged, depleted of ammunition and food, and helpless. Watching his companions fall one after another in a difficult situation, and the rest of them also go step by step towards the depths of despair, this is simply the most terrifying nightmare, far more terrifying than being killed by a single shot.
After a moment of silence, Donovan said, "You can go to the base." Go there and be a teacher or something. After all, you're experienced, and what Helmet needs most is someone like you. ”
Ochoa sighed and said, "Just don't let me go to those war-torn places with a gun again." After speaking, he looked at Pete and said, "What about you?" Are you going to keep doing it? ”
"Me?" Pete was stunned for a moment, and the first thing he thought about when he was asked this question was not whether to continue working in Hermet, but whether he could continue to work for his true mission. After all, such one mission after another is too dangerous, and if you die in a certain mission, not only will you have nothing, but it will also be meaningless to your mission and the people who sent you here. But now he has no choice but to continue to do it, and Hermet is the place where he was supposed to lurk.
So Pete said, "If I don't work in Hermet, I don't know what else I can do." I haven't really thought about it yet. ”
"Don't let him interfere." Morris immediately said: "Let him be the security guard who can only get a flashlight and a key by himself." ”
Donovan sighed and said, "We should think about it." Because I'm definitely not going to stay in Team 009 anymore. There's a good chance I'll be transferred. So if any of you are still going to do it, maybe you have to go back to a new team. And I can tell you that after Hermet, there will be more and more tasks of various armed operations, and if you want to continue to do it, the danger will be higher than before, of course, there may not be a situation like this in Iraq, but it is certain that you will participate in various armed conflicts, or be stationed in places where the situation is very unstable or even chaotic. ”
"Are you going upstairs?" Ochoa asked.
What he said about going upstairs meant being promoted, to be in management. Because the management's office is upstairs, he said he was going upstairs.
"Almost." Donovan said: "Maybe there will be news in the afternoon." ”
"I'll keep doing it anyway." Morris said, "But do you think Team 009 will have none?" ”
Ochoa looked at Morris and said dissatisfied, "What are you talking about?" Why not? Revoke? What are we doing wrong or are we too bad? ”
Morris also seemed to be a little weak-hearted, and he immediately explained: "I mean we are already understaffed, and we have been losing manpower for most of the year, this time plus the two of you are injured and retired, how many people are still in this team?" And that's not counting the time it takes for others to recover, which is equivalent to a long period of time, and our squad exists in name only, you know? ”
"It won't be without." Ochoa said: "Not only should we not be removed, but we should also be rewarded." In that case, no one can guarantee to do better than we do. ”
"Chili is right." Donovan said, "Team 009 won't be without. But a long rest is for sure, and I'll ask Mr. John about that later. I don't think he's going to make a decision that we don't want to see. ”
"Good. I hope to keep it. Morris said, "I'm still going to stay in this team, I'm always here." ”
Donovan sighed and said, "No one let you go." After saying that, he looked at Pete and said, "You should go back and ask the others to see what they mean." If there's anything special you want to do just come and talk to me, I'll talk to John together. ”
Pete nodded, then left after a few more small talks. And in the afternoon, at three o'clock, John arrived at the hospital and walked into Donovan's room.
After greeting each other and getting a general idea of their injuries, John had Donovan put on a hospital bed and pushed him out to a relatively quiet place in the hallway.
"I think the doctor understood." John said: "Your injuries this time are more serious, even if you recover your physical skills, you can't recover as before." So you may not be able to lead your team anymore. But don't worry, I said I wasn't going to make you the leader of the squad. I've already arranged your office, so all you have to do is recuperate in peace. ”
Donovan nodded and said, "I'm not worried, I should say I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about our squad, and my brothers are also worried." ”
"Worried? What to worry about? John thought for a moment and said, "Can't you continue to serve in the squad?" Helmet will give him a lot of money if he can't do it, and with Helmet's work history, it is not difficult to go out and find a job and apply for a police officer. If you can continue to do it, there is nothing to worry about. Not to mention that you have done a beautiful job this time, heroic and resourceful, which can be seen from the report of the Intelligence Bureau, they praise you, and those who remain will be reused, so what is there to worry about. ”
"It's not just that." Donovan said: "They are worried that the 009 team will not have it, and they will lose their own team. ”
John laughed when he heard Donovan say this, "Why do you have such an idea? You fought valiantly and completed your mission with honor, why do you have such strange thoughts? ”
