Chapter 189: Recovered from Injuries and Discharged from the Hospital
One afternoon six months later, Xu Wenlong was finally discharged from the hospital, and the treatment effect was as strong as an ox and alive as Dr. Li said, no different from the original. It's just that there are some new scars on the body, the body is a little fatter, the skin is whiter, and it is more elegant and steady, less frizzy and impulsive, and it shows more and more the man's rigidity and softness and majesty. He bid farewell to Medical Officer Li and a group of doctors and nurses, and walked out of the First Navy Hospital full of joy surrounded by security guards such as Yang Yingying, Li Jing and Liu Qiang.
As soon as I got out of the hospital, it was like a different world and a different world. The air is fresh, the sea breeze is sweet, and the sun is still dazzling even though it is almost dusk. Xu Wenlong closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and suddenly felt as comfortable and happy as drinking a glass of thousand-year-old wine, and even wanted to tear his throat and yell at it a few times, let go of his hands and feet and jump on it a few times. After all, how boring and tedious it is to follow the doctor's instructions and the nurse's arrangements every day!
Li Jing and Yang Yingying pulled Xu Wenlong's arm left and right, smiling and looking at him with an intoxicated face.
"I'm finally back, thanks to the First Navy Hospital!" Liu Qiang rubbed his hands and said happily.
"yes, in the end, it reassured us!" Wang Dahai, Xie Lian and the others also said with smiles.
Flute, a brand-new, shiny, unlisted Audi honked its horn and stopped silently in front of everyone. A young man in plain clothes walked out of the car, walked up to Xu Wenlong, and said in a very admiring tone: "Manager Xu, Deputy Chief Lu is waiting for you at the 'Regent' Hotel, please come with me immediately." ”
"Deputy Chief Lu?" Li Xianghua was taken aback, looked at the group of security guards and muttered softly, "Which Deputy Chief Lu?" Where's Deputy Chief Lu? Sea...... Rear Admiral Lu Fenglu, Vice Commander? ”
Liu Qiang pulled the corner of his clothes and scolded him in a low voice: "Why are you asking so much? Don't call a taxi yet? ”
Li Xianghua shrugged his nose, and reluctantly pulled Wang Dahai to stop the taxi.
Yang Yingying talked about the change of color of wine, and as soon as she heard the words "Regent Hotel", she immediately asked vigilantly: "What are you going to do in the hotel?" Won't it be a meal or a bar? ”
Chen Yan also said to the young man: "Yes, why do you have to go to the 'Regent Hotel'?" Is there anything we can't talk about? In fact, the environment of the clubhouse is still good. Besides, we all ordered a table of meals at 'Cui Ya Xuan', what should we do when he leaves? ”
When the young man heard this, he immediately attached to Xu Wenlong's ear and whispered a few words.
Xu Wenlong was helpless, so he had to say to Chen Yan and the others apologetically: "It's better for you to go to 'Cui Yaxuan' to eat, I do have some things that need to be passed, and it is inconvenient to excuse myself." Besides, we have a long way to go, and we have time and opportunity. ”
Chen Yan thought about it, so she didn't say anything anymore. Yang Yingying couldn't scream alone, so she had to frown and pout and stand aside. Li Jing opened her mouth to complain, but Liu Qiang preemptively said: "Since there is something important waiting for us, then you should hurry over, and we will celebrate together later, and we are not in a hurry to meet at this time." ”
Xu Wenlong nodded, said hello to everyone, and then got into the brand-new Audi with the young man, turned around and drove towards the city. Liu Qiang also greeted Xie Li'an and others, and took two taxis to the "Cui Yaxuan" food building.
"Regent" hotel is tall and magnificent, towering into the sky, the whole body is inlaid with glass walls, like a thick and huge crystal, elegant and noble, extraordinary bearing, is one of the best high-standard restaurants in Binyang City.
Xu Wenlong, under the leadership of the sturdy guy, walked straight to the box booked by Major General Lu.
"All stand and welcome our heroes!" After a burst of warm and prolonged applause, Major General Lu Feng, who had always been majestic, opened his arms and smiled at Xu Wenlong. Deputy Director Lan of the National Security Bureau also stood up and looked at Xu Wenlong with a smile.
Xu Wenlong and Major General Lu hugged each other, and then said to the officers who were full of extraordinary bearing: "Hello sir! ”
The officers smiled and nodded, and came over in turn to shake hands with Xu Wenlong, say hello, and introduce themselves briefly. There are a total of six officers, all of whom hold a large number of positions, including Staff Officer Li of the War Room of the Military Headquarters, Commander Guan of the Base Guard Division, and Captain Xu of a certain new frigate. The driver was Major General Lu's guard, and after sending Xu Wenlong in, he quietly retreated to the adjacent box and went to eat with the other guards.
After the introduction, Major General Lu immediately dragged Xu Wenlong straight to the top, and said heartily while dragging it: "Come on, come on, sit down, sit down, today you are the guest of honor, and you are a civilian, and you have made such a great contribution, you should sit at the table!" ”
Where is Xu Wenlong willing to agree, said hello to Deputy Bureau Lan, hurriedly shook off Major General Lu's hand and replied: "With two commanders and many seniors here, how dare I sit on the top?" Don't dare! ”
The two of them tugged for a while, and finally Deputy Director Lan spoke: "Brother Lu, don't be embarrassed for the juniors, let's sit on the first place, let Ah Long sit next to you, it is not a matter to save everyone standing stupidly." ”
Major General Lu just gave up, waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, slowly picked up a glass of wine, and said in an extremely sad tone: "First of all, let us deeply remember the few officers on duty who died bravely at their posts. Especially Second Lieutenant Zhu, who was not afraid of danger and bravely fought spies! And as the main person responsible for the security of the base, I cannot escape this blame and am willing to accept any punishment from the higher authorities! With that, he gently spilled the wine from his glass on the ground.
Xu Wenlong and the others immediately stood up and respectfully spilled the wine in front of them on the ground.
The fragrant box was immediately filled with a pungent smell of liquor.
After filling the second glass of wine, Deputy Director Lan looked at Major General Lu who looked haggard beside him and said: "Brother Lu Feng has now been seriously dealt with by the Ministry of National Health, and his military rank has been reduced from major general to colonel, but he is still responsible for the security and defense work inside the base. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, don't say that I am demoted to a colonel, even if I am demoted to an ordinary soldier, or even sent me to a military court, I am willing and have nothing to say!" Major General Lu wiped his moist eyes and replied solemnly.
Division Commander Guan and the others all stood up and said, "It doesn't matter if you are a colonel or a small soldier." In short, in the minds of all of us, you will always be an amiable and respectable old leader. ”
Lu Shao nodded with satisfaction, and said in a tone of great joy, "Fortunately, with the help of Manager Xu Wenlong Xu and the Binyang Branch of the National Military Bureau, we not only sent the murderous and cunning spy to the western sky, but also found out the traitor hidden around us, so that he received the punishment he deserved!" At the same time, the security system at our base has been further upgraded with extremely sensitive temperature and pressure sensors, as well as an automatic rapid-fire machine gun to accompany it. I dare say that if there is a similar person trespassing on the base in the future, it is guaranteed that he will be made to come and go, and blood will be spattered on the spot, even if he has the ability to penetrate the sky! To this end......"
Major General Lu said, looked at Xu Wenlong beside him with kind eyes, took out a bunch of keys and solemnly handed them to him.
"What are you ......" Xu Wenlong hurriedly stood up and looked at Major General Lu at a loss.
Rear Admiral Lu shoehorned the key to Xu Wenlong, and continued: "For this reason, with the approval of the relevant departments at the higher level, we specially purchased a car of the same brand and model for Manager Xu, that is, the Audi you just roin, and it should be regarded as the naval force to compensate you for your losses!" ”
Deputy Blue and the officers present immediately applauded softly.
When Xu Wenlong heard this, he hurriedly handed over the key to Major General Lu, and resolutely refused: "No, no, absolutely not." How can I accept reparations from the army? It's just doing their duty for the country and the people! Not to mention that I myself was once a soldier, even if it was an ordinary citizen, when it came to such a big thing, I believe they would all stand up and sacrifice everything for the good of the country! ”
Major General Lu nodded appreciatively, still insisted on stuffing the key into Xu Wenlong's hand, and then said in a slightly apologetic tone: "Needless to say, we can only express our gratitude to you in this way, and this is what you deserve!" After all, you also lost your car because of our navy. As for other things such as extra bonuses, award ceremonies, flowers, applause, etc., between the frequent training of the Navy, the relative shortage of funds, and the particularity and sensitivity of this matter, I can only apologize to you to say 'I'm sorry'! Including those martyrs who bravely sacrificed their lives, we can't posthumously award honorary titles to them! ”
"I understand this, but I still think the car is still ......" Xu Wenlong still wanted to excuse himself with the key.
This made Captain Xu, who was born with a big shoulder and a round waist and a rough and bold man on the side, impatient. He pressed Xu Wenlong's hand, shook his head and said with a big grin: "Brother, don't push around here, be happy, take it!" Remember, you are the idol of our naval brethren, a true Chinese man! What I admire most in my life is the insightful and bloody man! By the way, wasn't this dinner tonight paid for by Chief Lu out of his own pocket? I think so, after eating, let's simply find a song hall to practice our voices and roar. What about this cost? Our family doesn't talk to each other, except for Deputy Director Lan and Brother Xu, everyone here is 3131, one for each person, fair and reasonable, you can't escape and you can't escape me. ”
Senior Commander Guan and the others were the first to clap their hands in response, but the elegant Staff Officer Li said with a painful face: "I very much agree with everyone sharing the money for dinner, after all, the grade here is high, the price is expensive, and Deputy Chief Lu is not a rich man." As for this singing? I think it's better to forget it! Just you, a ghost crying wolf howl and a broken voice with incomplete voices, didn't sing the dead corpses in the grave to life, it's really a thing worth thanking everyone for! ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
Captain Xu laughed dryly, salivated and begged Staff Officer Li: "Let's go together, don't spoil the fun here, okay?" Even if I invite you, can't you? In addition to leading soldiers to practice, our old Xu usually likes to shout a few revolutionary songs. But because of the limitations of military discipline, you can't go to the song hall to show your talents, so you have to stay at home and howl a few times. Although every time I pick up the microphone, my wife, children, daughter-in-law and granddaughter are anxious to go to the supermarket to shop. ”
Major General Lu hurriedly played a round and said: "Go, go, it's rare to have such a relaxing and happy weekend, we all go in and out together, no one is missing, if you want to play, you can have a good time." You don't have to worry about the cost, so I'll be the one who bears it. Also, Manager Xu, you don't need to be polite, put the key away, we should start drinking. ”
Xu Wenlong couldn't shirk it for a while, so he had to look at Deputy Bureau Lan with eyes asking for help, hoping that Deputy Bureau Lan could help him say good things and solve the siege.
I don't want to Lan Deputy Director but nodded at his jaw, indicating that you don't have to be polite.
Xu Wenlong had no choice but to accept the string of car keys in fear.
After solving the car problem, the banquet was solemnly launched in the stirring toast of Major General Lu. Wine is an old wine, the dish is a delicacy, and it is a high-roller in the army, so a few rounds of wine salute each other, the atmosphere becomes more and more warm, and the mood is getting higher and higher. Anyway, it's a weekend, it's casual clothes anyway, and you don't need to worry about such and such rules and regulations.
After the meal, Deputy Bureau Lan said goodbye in advance due to the temporary departure, but Xu Wenlong was inconvenient to withdraw because of his words, so he had to sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman and wait for the next program arrangement of Major General Lu and others.
"Then," said the red-faced Captain Xu with great interest, "it's time to shift the battlefield and fight again!" Where is the goal? What is the route? You may wish to speak up and contribute ideas to determine the best course of action. ”
Staff Officer Li said in a deep voice: "It's best to find a small song hall that is secluded and sparsely populated and the business is not very sluggish, even if the sound effect is not good." After all, we are soldiers, and we must try to keep a low profile, but don't be too ostentatious. ”
Master Guan nodded, as if he remembered something, and said to Xu Wenlong: "Isn't Manager Xu running an entertainment club?" I heard that you have closed down for rectification and suspended operations, isn't that just right? It's simply the best choice target. There are few people who are quiet, and they are not known by outsiders, maybe they can give us a discount? ”
Xu Wenlong was taken aback, thinking that this was extremely bad. It's true to open a club by yourself, but how many people know the real reason why the club is closed? In case everyone is suddenly unreasonably interrogated when everyone is in high spirits, isn't it a particularly depressing thing? But after thinking about it, he thought that the matter might not be so serious, after all, the club had been closed for too long, and what law enforcement department was full of food and would always pay attention to the club's every move? It's just that I'm worrying too much!
Everyone saw Xu Wenlong's mouth undecided and his face changed, and they all looked at him with surprised eyes.
"What's wrong? Difficult? Major General Lu patted Xu Wenlong on the shoulder and asked, "If it's too troublesome, we might as well find another song hall." ”
"No, no, no, no trouble," Xu Wenlong calmed down, gritted his teeth and resolutely agreed, "It's not troublesome at all." Anyway, the audio equipment is idle, and there are many ready-made drinks and drinks, so there is no need to go to other places. As for the money, there is no need to mention it, it's all free! And once the clubhouse is 'renovated', you can come and play and sing at any time, and no fees are guaranteed! Of course, this is all for the sake of our soldiers, and it doesn't mean to slap everyone! The "decoration" he mentioned naturally refers to setting out the black hands behind the scenes, so that the club can be transferred to normal operation.
"Is that true?" Captain Xu's eyes lit up in an instant, his face was happy, and he pointed at Xu Wenlong and asked eagerly.
"It's true!" Xu Wenlong replied with a smile.
"Talking counts?"
"No jokes!"
"So what are you waiting for?" Captain Xu waved his hand, tore open his throat and shouted, "Brothers, rush me, target the 'Bashan Qing' club!" ”
As a result, a group of officers and their entourage guards, a total of more than 10 people, under the guidance of Xu Wenlong's new Audi, got on the bus dispatched by the base and galloped towards the "Bashan Qing".
