Chapter 17: It's a Dream

"Looking for whom?"

Heiko laughed angrily at the old man, hey, as the new boss, the people in this branch base didn't go to the city gate to greet him, and he was even stopped at the gate of the base by a janitor.

It's a joke to spread it, he's a dignified naval colonel, shameless?

His face sank, and he was about to go crazy, when Vito, who was behind him, suddenly touched his ass with his knee and motioned him to look inside the doorβ€”

It's not that they are raised and kicked, but that there is a huge difference in height between the two, and this part is originally at the same height......

"Huh?"

Heiko took a half-step back, searched up and down the base building in confusion for a moment, and finally found something wrong, above the entrance to the luxurious revolving door on the first floor of the building, there was a horizontal plaque with a large line of writing on it.

【City Hall】

Just kidding...... The Colonel's first reaction was that he had misunderstood, and he rubbed his eyes vigorously, closed them and opened them suddenly, and the plaque remained unchanged, hanging absurdly and grandly from the revolving door.

"Again, who are you looking for?"

The bald old man who was guarding the door was obviously a lot impatient this time, "If you have an appointment, you can report your name, so that I can register you as a visitor, and get out of the house without an appointment!" ”

"No...... Didn't you say that this is the base of the 78th branch? ”

Heiko ignored the old man, raised his head and looked up at the pure white building in a daze, "How did it become a city hall, could it be that Sweet's bastard is lying to me?" ”

"78 branch base?"

When the bald old man heard this, he immediately sneered, "Got the wrong address, you guys, go and go, go farther, the branch base you are looking for is next door, such a large group of people, and then keep blocking the door, I can call people!" ”

"Hey, you damn old man, what about the town hall, know I'm ......"

Heiko suddenly became angry, glaring at the bald old man, and before he could finish his cruel words, he was secretly kicked in the ass by someone.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The colonel sighed melancholy, turned back in silence, and led everyone out of the gate of the town hall and towards the front.

Leaving the bald old man, who was already eager to accept this scolding battle, but finally failed to do so, pouted, and returned to the courtyard with a disappointed face.

…………

It was said that it was next door, but because the enclosure of this city hall was too outrageous, everyone walked for half a street and spent nearly ten minutes before finally coming to the real 78 branch base.

It is a complex of low-rise bungalows, and even with the square in front of it, it is no longer than two hectares, and the only thing that can barely be seen is the main building of the fortress facing the gate.

This is still compared to the rest of the bungalows, the so-called main building, is only four floors, Heiko dared to bet his head, this height is definitely not more than twenty meters, compared to the adjacent town hall, not even a podium.

However, the exterior is a standard navy style, with a blue and white exterior wall painted with a seagull holding a scale, which is a symbol of naval justice.

But Heiko would rather be blind himself and not see the damn seagull pattern.

Because this time it couldn't go wrong, everything clearly told him that the warm paradise next door that perfectly matched the fantasy was indeed the city hall, and these dilapidated old buildings in front of him were the base of his 78th branch.

The snowflakes are fluttering, and the north wind is bleak.

Under the dim light of the black street lamp, the dark and cold branch base was like his mood at the moment, full of bleak and cold taste.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Mr. Colonel was aggrieved like a child of more than 300 pounds at the moment, standing stiff in the cold wind, unwilling to accept this cruel reality.

He even wanted to kill Marin Fando a little, grabbed the bastard who ate and took a card to collect a lot of benefits from himself, and sprayed him with a spit on his face:

"Mom, return the money!"

Unfortunately, he still answered his words involuntarily, and after another impatient kick from Vito, he finally reluctantly took a step and stepped into the territory that was already his.

Compared to the pleasure-hungry Heike, Vito obviously doesn't care so much about these external environments, and after entering the gate, he has been silently observing left and right, analyzing the real status of the base from the details.

The gate of the base is not guarded by soldiers, which seems a bit outrageous, but you can see a few figures standing faintly at the door of the fortress building, and the two gates are only a few dozen meters apart, which is understandable if it is for the sake of saving manpower......

A hundred meters away on the left, against the wall, there is a large bare lawn, obviously a training ground, the training facilities inside are quite complete at a glance, but most of them are quite old, and it seems that they have not been replaced for some years.

It was half past five in the afternoon, and it was not yet completely dark, but looking around, except for the few soldiers standing guard at the door of the building, there was no longer any shadow of the rest of the navy soldiers.

The four-story main building of the fortress was only two or three rooms, and the lights were still on, and the rest was pitch black.

"Armament is slack, ......"

Vito meditated in his heart, when he was still in the deep mountains of the Red Earth Continent, he had seen many of the soldiers in the kingdom cities in a mess, and all kinds of military defenses were in vain, but that was because people had been in peace for a long time, and they had the qualifications to fall.

But when did the base of the navy, especially the base on the great route, have such a strange situation, is it because the pirates are coming and they are not dying fast enough?

But that's fine.

The so-called no break or stand, he must completely turn this branch into his own private property in the future, and there are too many places that need to be transformed from scratch.

If you come by yourself and are really a strong and complete base, with a complete set of rules and regulations, it will be a lot tricky to implement the plan.

Vito raised his head slightly, and his eyes leisurely passed through the night, falling on the few rooms on the building that were still lit - all of them were on the third or fourth floor, and they should be independent offices only owned by the high-level of the branch.

It's really enviable, many young soldiers who enter the navy are likely to often look up at these lights in the night, hoping that one day they can be promoted to captain and have a place in the upper floors of the building, right?

It's a pity, what does this sentiment have to do with Vito, he didn't sign up for the army as a recruit, at the latest tomorrow, there will inevitably be a room of his own in that row of offices.

"Come in, Colonel."

He suddenly noticed that Heiko in front of him was still staring at the majestic city hall building on his right, and he couldn't help but chuckle and teased:

"What you saw before, you just forgot about it as a dream, now it's time to wake up, go back to reality, and meet a better tomorrow."
