All Chapters_Chapter 57 A Little Interlude
Sabah's path up the hill wasn't too steep, and in addition to a few of them, Parker hired three locals from the farm to carry some of the heavy loads. You're just like that, except for Sabah, the rest of the people, including Parker, one of the four bigwigs, are also carrying no less than ten kilograms of belongings.
At the foot of the mountain, the position of Sabah's finger was not far away, but when he actually walked up after lunch, Ah Cuo deeply realized the meaning of the ancient Chinese saying - what it means to run a dead horse on the mountain.
But what is even more unexpected is that Sabah has obviously been here before. At first, he thought that he would find a few locals at the bottom of the mountain to be not only porters, but also guides. But when he got up the hill, Sabah was at the forefront. With the exception of a few newly opened forks in the road, which required a few locals to be asked, almost all of the routes were decided by the Dark Night Leader.
Without waiting for Ah Wrong to ask, while resting on the way, Sabah took the initiative to say to Ah Cuo: "During the period from the beginning of World War I to the end of World War II, the headquarters of Dark Night was set up in Zurich. At that time, we had a good relationship with the Swiss government and shared the responsibility of monitoring the countries around the Alps. At the beginning of the First World War, I was a young adult child, and my father, Al-Sabah, personally took me up this road countless times. However, after the end of World War II, the honeymoon period with the Swiss government has passed, and after the headquarters was moved, I came to this place relatively rarely. ”
When Sabah said this, Ah Cuo sensed that something was wrong. However, he didn't react for a while, and when Sabah finished speaking, he understood what was wrong: "Wait a minute, you were just an adult when the First World War began. I don't know much about history, but I know that it's been almost 100 years since the end of World War I. A hundred years ago, you were just an adult, and now you have a hundred and twelve, right? ”
"One hundred and twenty-three years old" Sabah seemed to say a simple number, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he continued: "The soul of the supernatural is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and as long as there are no accidents, they basically have a long lifespan. ”
Speaking of this, Sabah showed a self-deprecating smile on his face, sighed slightly, and continued: "But as an anomaly, it's really not easy to avoid accidents. When Sabah said this, Parker and Catherine both glanced at their big boss, intentionally or unintentionally.
After a few more hours of walking, it began to get dark. Sabah quickened his pace, leading the men to a relatively flat spot before it was completely dark. This is supposed to be a place for campers to sleep in the open, and you can also see some household garbage for picnics around.
Sabah chose to camp here, and after a short rest, the locals began to get busy setting up tents and cooking. Catherine herself set up an alcohol stove to make coffee, and Parker helped Sabah to sit in a folding chair, and the two of them began to mumble as they sat together.
At this time, Ah Cuo found that the little finger of Parker's left hand had broken off at the heel, but the good left hand had only four fingers. Seeing his stumpled hand, Ah Cuo suddenly remembered the scene when he first met Sabah, when Sabah threw two fingers to Monroe, saying that it was an apology from Dante and the emperor, and it seems that the person in front of him who is second only to Sabah in the dark night is one of the reasons why Monroe refuses to return to the dark night.
After recognizing Dante's severed finger, Aco had no intention of getting over. But he had nothing to do, and when he was about to help the locals set up their tents, Catherine had already made coffee. I asked Ah Cuo to help divide the coffee into several portions, including a few locals, who could get a cup.
It wasn't long before the smell of rice wafted in again, just as the locals beckoned Sabah to go to dinner. In the distance, there was a sudden sound of footsteps of 'Xi Xi Suosuo', and then Ah Cuo faintly heard the voice of someone talking: "There is a light ahead, someone is camping there, hurry up, they should be able to help us......"
Not only Ah Cuo, but everyone present heard it. But the trio in the dark didn't seem to hear it, Parker was still talking to Sabah, and Catherine poured herself a second cup of coffee. As he drank his coffee, he looked up at the starry sky, completely ignoring the voices coming from afar.
The locals saw that Sabah and the others did not mean to get up, and after discussing for a while, they left one person to guard the place, and the remaining two greeted the place where the voice sounded.
About three to five minutes later, several figures appeared in the distance. With a few shouts from there, one of the remaining locals also greeted him with a flashlight.
After a few more minutes, seven or eight figures staggered up. Two of them seemed to have been injured in some way, and one of them appeared to have a broken leg and was lying on his companion's grief with a painful expression. The other man was wounded in the stomach, and blood was oozing from his clothes. Although he was barely able to walk with the support of his companions, his face was as white as paper, and his body trembled as if he could faint at any moment. Except for the two of them, the remaining young people were all more or less wounded.
Seeing that four or five of them were college students, it should have been an accident when they went camping together on the Salps.
One of the three locals walked up to Sabah and said in a somewhat disdainful tone: "Mr. Abdullah, those young people came across a rockfall while they were camping. One of them was injured and needed help, I saw Miss Jones with first aid medicine, could you set aside some to help those young people? ”
"It looks serious," Sabah looked at the young men covered in mud as if he had just seen it, and then said to Catherine, "Give them our first aid medicine." If the injuries are severe, they can call the police on behalf of the young people and ask the local police to organize a rescue team. ”
As Sabah spoke, Catherine had already opened her backpack and pulled out a first-aid kit. Ah Cuo glanced around him, and he didn't think that in addition to the medicine, there were five or six small needles inside. It may be full of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs.
Then, Catherine changed her style just now, and in addition to this small pill box, she also took out a few rolls of medical bandages and disinfectant potions, and then walked to the young people with these things. In addition to giving antibiotics to the two seriously injured young people, he also poured water himself and let the other injured young people take anti-inflammatory drugs.
Is it necessary to bring so many pills to go up the mountain to find Monroe's clues? Ah Cuo stared at Catherine, who was still busy, this style of behavior can change, but it is a little too fast. This matter is not so simple, it will inevitably affect the pond fish, Ah Cuo pretended to help those locals to eat, and took the initiative to distance himself from this side.
When Catherine was almost done, the two young men who were leading the group discussed it, and then limped to Sabah's side. One of them, who was a little older, was the first to speak: "Thank you very much for your help, we really don't dare to imagine what the consequences would have been without a few gentlemen and ladies." If you don't mind, please tell me your names. My father was a member of Parliament, and he will formally thank you to the gentlemen and ladies in the future. ”
Sabah smiled, looked at the young man in front of him and said: "I didn't expect to meet the son of a congressman in such a place, none of us are Swiss and we don't need your father's thanks." But the name can be said, my name is Kimura Zhongichiro, do you want to know the name of other people? ”
After the name of Kimura Tadaichiro came out of Sabah's mouth, the faces of the two young men in front of him immediately changed, and the two of them hurriedly retreated, and the skin on one of them had turned the color of steel when he retreated.
"It's too late, since you dare to play such a trick, you have to have the consciousness of failure......"
