Chapter 163: Interesting Story
After dinner, the central hall.
Hua Xuning came back after urinating in the toilet and continued to make a cup of coffee. He walked into the central hall and immediately noticed that Chen Yunhan and the others had been sitting in their seats for a long time, waiting for Kudo to tell a story.
Each person has a diary in their hand and a fountain pen.
What does that mean? Is there an annual summary of the company? Isn't there still a month to make the annual summary, is it possible to listen to a story and take notes? I don't have to be so serious in class, and I look like I'm serious at this time. What age is it, and you still use a book to remember? We are all the pride of the new era, of course, with a voice recorder! Otherwise, how can it be worthy of this trendy era.
"What are you guys doing? Tonight is just listening to stories, not a meeting, so you don't have to take it so seriously. Hua Xuning walked to the coffee machine with a bone china cup, he didn't eat a few bites, but he drank a lot of coffee.
"Oh Shet! No ink. Achu shook the pen in his hand, and didn't get a drop of ink out for a long time. He opened the pen and looked, oh Shet! Sure enough, there was really no ink, just like an octopus running out of ink in its belly, and then it was about to pour in the black ink.
Li Luoyi, who was sitting next to him, immediately held a notebook to cover her face, and she was worried that the guy would suddenly throw out the ink. Even though she knew that Achu's pen was out of ink, she was still afraid. Don't ask why, because it's a law of nature.
"I'll go get the ink and I'll be right back." Achu stood up with a pen, but was stopped by Hua Xuning.
"Hey, come back, come back, I've said it, tonight is not a meeting, you don't need to take notes, just listen to a story." Hua Xuning stopped Ah Chu, he really wanted to know which bastard proposed to listen to the story and take notes?
"Okay then, then I won't fill the ink, anyway, I have a good memory, I'll write it down with my brain." Achu sat down, and he scraped around with an empty ink pen in his notebook.
"Are you sure you're listening to me? Tonight is just listening to stories, not meetings......" Hua Xuning looked helpless, the coffee beans in the coffee machine, after a minute, had already brewed coffee.
Hua Xuning took a sip of coffee, with a fluttering feeling, "Ah! That's the flavor, and that's the exclusive brand of Fahrenheit. It's a pity...... Compared to the hand-ground coffee of ice cream, it is still a little less hot. ”
"Mr. Kudo can come in, finish the story early, I have time for a meeting." Hua Xuning walked over to his seat.
"Meeting?!"
Hua Xuning suddenly stopped, he looked at Chen Yunhan and the others with wide eyes, and he seemed to have said something wrong.
He immediately corrected his slip of the tongue, "Uh...... No, it's about something important, and it's not related to the meeting. ”
"Oh Shet! Then I'd better go and fill the ink. Achu stood up again, but was stopped by Hua Xuning again.
"Hey, come back, come back, come back, don't have to fill the ink, I'll lend you my pen, right?" Hua Xuning put down the coffee cup, then took out a fountain pen from the pocket of his clothes and threw it to Achu, fortunately, the guy could catch it, otherwise an expensive fountain pen would have to be damaged.
Achu caught the fountain pen, first expressionless, and then after seeing the brand of the fountain pen, his face changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and his eyebrows were about to take off. If this is made into a TV series, his expression will rotate with the top spiral, and then his eyebrows will spiral into the sky.
"Pie...... Send...... Pai ......" Achu was surprised.
"Send what?" Li Luoyi watched Achu stutter from the sidelines.
"Spike?"
"Chocolate pie?"
Hua Xuning sat on the seat and picked up the coffee cup, he knew that Achu recognized the brand of the fountain pen.
"Parker (PA
ke
Fountain pens? Damn, it's too extravagant, isn't it? The most expensive fountain pen I have used since I was a child is only about 20 yuan. Ah Chu's hand was trembling with the pen, he really wanted to know what brand of ink this expensive fountain pen had to use to match its identity?
"I think...... It's better to have a hero fountain pen, after all, it's domestic. As a Chinese, you must use domestic production! Hero fountain pen models 616 and 329, special for students! It's cheap and durable! You deserve it! Achu held someone else's brand fountain pen and said that the advertisement of his own brand fountain pen was really promising.
Hua Xuning sat on the seat with an embarrassed smile, and he didn't know whether to drink this coffee or not. It's not that he doesn't like to use domestic fountain pens, but the main thing is that the fountain pen was given by Mo Fei, and the fountain pen sent by his lover, can he not cherish it? Even if it's a stall, it's a unique stall.
"The pen...... It was given to me by Murphy on my birthday last year. Hua Xuning said this lightly, and then continued to drink coffee.
"Oh?" Achu grabbed the pen with two fingers and stood in place stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"Oh! It turned out to be sent by Aunt Fei! No wonder it's so precious. Chen Yunhan and the others smiled evilly, and even Xiao Yusheng, who usually had an iceberg face, also smiled.
"yes, isn't that weird?" Hua Xuning drank coffee proudly, and then glanced at the door, the one-meter-nine guy hid at the door and didn't dare to come in, is this shy?
Kudo Kuke hid by the door and slowly poked his head out, his hippie smile face, "Hehehehehe...... You continue to talk about the fountain pen, I still have something to deal with, I'll bring you supper later......"
"Come back! The story is not finished, and you can't go anywhere. Hua Xuning called Kudo Kuke.
"That's right! You can't go anywhere until you finish the story, and you can only go out to buy supper after the story is finished! By the way, bring me some udon noodles back. Achu spoke confidently to Kudo Kuke.
Although that guy is tall, temperamental, handsome, and able to make weapons, with these points, why is Achu so arrogant?
"Udon? Why don't you eat Lanzhou ramen? Jiang Yixue thinks Lanzhou ramen is the best.
"Lanzhou ramen? I think the car noodles are more delicious, although cheap, but delicious. Chen Yunhan suddenly interjected, she was fortunate to go to a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant once, and the car noodles must be eaten with Q-bomb curry fish balls, which is the authentic Hong Kong common people's fireworks taste.
"No, no, no, it varies from person to person, China is so big, there are many types of pasta, and everyone's taste preferences are different. Some people like udon, some people like Lanzhou ramen, and some people like Chezai noodles. It is because there are many types of pasta, and each kind of pasta has different characteristics, so ......" Xiao Yusheng suddenly spoke, but what he said was strange.
"You just say it...... What kind of noodles do you like to eat? Chen Yunhan asked domineeringly.
"Wuhan hot dry noodles." Xiao Yusheng told Chen Yunhan frankly that he was really a frank boy.
He opened his mouth and trembled slightly, as if he still wanted to say something, "If it weren't for the last Wuhan lockdown, which caused all parts of the country to hide at home for confinement, otherwise, I would have to go to Wuhan, eat Wuhan hot dry noodles, and see the characteristics ......of Wuhan's scenery."
"Okay, okay, don't be verbose, like your mother." Chen Yunhan couldn't stand the boy's crookedness.
"Udon? Lanzhou ramen? Che Tsai noodles? Wuhan hot dry noodles? Actually, it doesn't matter what kind of noodles I have, as long as I can eat enough, but if I have to say what kind of noodles I like, I still prefer Beijing fried noodles, hee-hee-hee-haha. Lin Jinyu smiled very awkwardly, and at the mention of food, her stomach was hungry again.
"Ahem, everyone...... Have we forgotten our purpose for tonight? Li Luo coughed a few times, and it seemed that everyone present was normal.
Kudo stood in place with his hands on his inner thighs, looking shy, completely inconsistent with his temperament and height.
"It's okay, when you finish talking, I'll tell the story when you do." Kudo said humbly.
"Uh...... I'm hungry as I say that, it's all your fault......" Achu rightly threw the pot to the others, and then he scratched his ass and sat down.
"If we don't talk about food, what else can we talk about? Why don't you talk about the sister next door? Jiang Yixue put down his mobile phone, he had already started a game, but he was brought out of the room.
"Go, go, what's going on in your head all day?" Li Luoyi poked Jiang Yixue's head with his finger.
"Games, and pretty beauties." Jiang Yixue told her frankly.
"It's getting late, Mr. Kudo, you can get ready to tell a story." Hua Xuning looked at the time on his watch, it was only about eight o'clock.
"But I've always been there, huh...... Well, I got it. Kudo felt like he had no sense of existence.
Kudo straightened his jacket, he stood shyly in place, his hands with nowhere to put him, he stood in front of everyone like a mimosa.
"I ...... The story I'm going to tell tonight is about an incident that happened to the Nevada Killer Whale Commando nine years ago. Kudo scratched his hair, his eyes had no fixed target, even every pore on his skin was very unnatural, and a series of subtle movements were all displayed, as if he was a thief.
Everyone in the audience all focused on Kudo Kuke, like seven spotlights shining on him at the same time, which made Kudo Kudo more and more nervous, and even his speech was slurred, like a network delay.
Kudo cleared his throat and told everyone, "The story begins, in the Navy Special Operations Command in Nevada, USA, a military special forces unit 'Kille
whalecomma
dos', abbreviated as KWC, Chinese name 'killer whale commando'. That's where I met those wanderers, in the same unit we belonged to, in the same group. My number is ...... 1306。 ”
"At that time, the more famous one was the Orca Commando No. 3 Underwater Demolition Team, which was the group to which I belonged to a group of wanderers. Because of the excellent work of various underwater blasting missions and the spirit of not being afraid of death, he was called the 'Killer Whale Thirteen' by other groups at that time. ”
"Thirteen? Which thirteen? Can you tell us about it? Achu asked, curious why it wasn't Eleven, just like the "Inazuma Eleven" in the Japanese anime.
"Didn't Uncle Kuke say it? The thirteen were, of course, the group of wanderers, including Uncle Kuke himself. Didn't you hear each other when you were in the North End yesterday? Chen Yunhan suspected that Achu had cleaned up the hard drive again.
"Oooh...... I forgot. Achu said it all.
Chen Yunhan wanted to speak, but Kudo Kuke took the lead, "It's okay, it's okay if I say it again." ”
Kudo Kuke was helpless, obviously he didn't want to mention the events of the year, but all the troubles were caused by himself. So no matter what, you have to bear all the consequences. If the other party really can't forgive, then there's really no way.
Kudo Kuke told everyone, "At that time, there were thirteen killer whales, namely Chao Remnant Leopard, Liu Beiye, Li Hongjiao, Yu Wenfei, Tang Chuanhai, Wei Guangsen, Wu Zhonghuai, Hu Bincang, Han Yu, Tao Mu Zhi, Jiang Chaoxi, Zhang Xiuke, including me!" ”
"Why are there women in the same group?" Achu was curious about this.
Kudo told him, "Our team, regardless of gender, is a good unit as long as we can work together to complete the blasting operation." ”
"Uh...... That's it. "Achu understands, this is the so-called male and female matching, and they are not tired of working.
"Then why...... Will the other party hate you? Yesterday I saw that little kid with a kitchen knife, and when I saw you, my whole body instantly burned with anger, as if I saw an enemy, you shouldn't kill his father, right? Jiang Yixue asked Kudo Kuke, he will never forget the little kid who carried the kitchen knife yesterday, his eyes were sharp, like Kurosaki Ichigo on the line.
"Alas...... It's all a long story, it's all my fault, and if it weren't for me, I wouldn't have been in the situation I am in. If only I had confessed my mistake in time, or ...... If we hadn't fled back to Japan in embarrassment, we might not have been where we are today. Kudo looked sad.
"So what the hell is going on?" Chen Yunhan asked Kudo Kuke.
"Hmm...... The reason can be traced back to an underwater blasting operation in the Black Sea nine years ago. Kudo pretended to be calm, but his hands were in his pockets and he was trembling.
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened to Kudo Kuke continue, and Hua Xuning sat in his seat and drank coffee quietly.
Kudo put his hands in his pockets, and he didn't need to tell a series of stories through handmade drafts, because the drafts were in his mind, the memories of eternal guilt. Even if the brain is washed away by the deep sea, it cannot wash away the memory of the brain.
"At that time, the troops asked us to complete an underwater blasting operation in the nearby Black Sea, which is a military area that is forever blocked," he told the group. The operation was codenamed 'Operation Black Sea Blasting'. ”
"The people who participated in this blasting operation are thirteen of us killer whales. We had been involved in many dangerous underwater blasting operations, and we had been training to the death, so we were not afraid of the mission at all of us. The only thing we were worried about was that the military sea area was not open to the public at that time, and we had never seen that sea area before. Moreover, it is also stipulated that the black sea area is not allowed to be used for any kind of underwater blasting operations, as well as any covert operations. ”
"Despite the prohibition from above, we took on the mission, so all of us drove the hydrofoil to the Black Sea that night, and we were accompanied by a helicopter, who was sent by the army to protect our lives. We were all confident that we were confident in our own skills and that we had helicopters to keep us safe, and if something happened and we signaled under the sea, helicopters would come to our rescue. But...... None of us could have imagined that we would be reduced to such a humble ......"
Kudo's face gradually darkened, and his eyes were not quite right. After so many years, he still remembers it vividly, and he spoke at length so smoothly, as if it had just happened yesterday. It shows that he has never let go of this matter, and he has never forgotten everyone in that group.
The central hall was as quiet as water, and everyone listened quietly as Kudo continued, "As we sorted out some underwater blasting tools, we wore wetsuits, and each of us carried a tank of oxygen on our backs and went into the sea, which was how it was at the time......"
"There were thirteen people in groups of three, so there were four groups. The situation was surveyed at four corners of the black sea, and then the underwater blasting operation was completed. And I'm the extra one, so there's no way, the army has regulations, because underwater operations are simple or serious, and they must be completed together, not alone. ”
"So I had to stay in the hydrofoil at sea, and if something was wrong under the sea, I could send a distress signal to the helicopter. When the time came, all four groups of people went to the sea with self-confidence. Each of them wore diving helmets with communicators connected to the hydrofoil's receiver, so in any case down there, if they called for help, I could immediately signal the helicopter. ”
"At that time, for all of us, it was just a normal training underwater blasting operation, and all the equipment was so perfect that we could turn the tide even if there was a one percent accident, but who ......knows."
Kudo's voice suddenly stopped, even the air stopped, and everyone suddenly stopped breathing, did we have to hold our breath as soon as we reached the climax of the story? For fear of breaking the climax atmosphere.
Kudo's face became more and more uneasy, his mouth opened and trembled, and he told everyone, "As a result, we encountered an ocean storm in the Black Sea, which was an unprecedented accident. The blasting was forced to stop, and everyone had to return to the hydrofoil, the helicopter's last command. If, within ten minutes, everyone has not come out of the sea, the helicopter will have to leave the area. Otherwise, they will never bear the consequences, because they gave instructions and we didn't escape within the allotted time, that's our business. ”
"I remember very vividly that I was standing on the hydrofoil and watching the storm of the ocean slowly come towards me. The sea was raging, and the sea breeze was blowing desperately in my face. The helicopter remains in mid-air, and at any moment it could be damaged by an ocean storm. This is called the force of nature, and none of us can fight against nature. ”
"I used the receiver to tell the remnants of the leopards to come out of the sea immediately, otherwise they would be buried under the Black Sea, even me. Standing on the hydrofoil, I vaguely saw someone swimming up under the sea, one, two, three, or four people poked out of the water, it was the remnant leopard, but I didn't find Momoki and Hanyu. ”
"The remnant leopard told me that Momoki and Hanyu were trapped under the sea and that they were running out of oxygen cylinders, and that we had to call a helicopter to rescue them both, otherwise they would all die below......"
Nine years ago, Nevada, Black Sea.
Black clouds rolled in, accompanied by fierce winds and thunder and lightning, and wild wolves on the sea splashed high cliffs. A storm in the ocean is about to arrive in the Black Sea, and it will be an unprecedented battle for life at sea. The helicopter staying in mid-air, the propeller overhead cannot withstand the power of the ocean storm, and it may face the possibility of a crash at any time.
The hydrofoil stayed on the surface of the sea, the wolves under the sea were undulating, Kudo Kuke was unstable, and the voice of the person in charge came from overhead.

The ocean storm is five minutes away from reaching the Black Sea, and our rescue time is less than five minutes, and if we stay here, we will all be buried in this sea! I repeat again! The No. 3 underwater demolition team will return to the hydrofoil immediately! The Black Sea blasting operation has stopped! The ocean storm will reach the Black Sea in about five minutes ......")
"Remnant Leopard! Hurry up to the hydrofoil! The ocean storm is coming! Kudo Kuke stood on the hydrofoil, he grabbed the steel bone behind him, and his other hand reached out to the sea, with his own strength, he could definitely pull everyone up, but he found that Momoki and Korean fish were not on the sea.
He wanted to ask, but was robbed of the microphone by the remnant leopard on the sea, and all of them showed half of their bodies, blowing this extremely strange and even terrifying wind.
"No! Wood planting and Korean fish are still down there! They're trapped, and the oxygen cylinders on both of them are running out, so we'll have to call for air support! Or they'll all die! ”
"It's too late! An ocean storm is coming! If we don't leave, we'll all die......" Kudo Kuke hadn't finished speaking, but Chao Remnant Leopard interjected from it.
"Kuke! Muzhi and Korean fish are our family, you said it yourself! You told us personally, and you will take good care of the wood! You'll always think of him as your own brother! Did you abandon him like that?! He and Han Yu were trapped under the sea, and immediately faced a lack of oxygen and a storm in the ocean, both of which were deadly threats to them. ”
Chao Remnant Leopard shouted at Kudo Kuke, Kudo Kuke was stunned, he was completely at a loss. Indeed, he really regarded Momomu as his own brother, and he also said that he would take good care of that guy for the rest of his life, but now he is facing an ocean storm, which is the natural enemy of a sea strangler, and the natural enemy of everyone.
If he doesn't leave, it's really too late, and it's really hard for him to make a choice. Kudo was silent, and the sound of a strong wind blowing in his ears pierced through his right ear to his left ear.
"No...... We must get out of here, that kid...... Abandon him......"
Chao Remnant Leopard was stunned on the spot, he didn't expect Kudo Kuke to say such cruel words, not only Chao Remnant Leopard alone, but also others. Li Hongjiao beside him was silent, he looked at Mr. Kudo in front of him, Li Hongzheng had nothing to say.
"Kudo...... Remnant Leopard ...... "Chao Remnant Leopard softly said the other party's name, the wind was sandwiched with the voice of Chao Remnant Leopard, and even the slowly annoyed emotion in his heart, Chao Remnant Leopard opened his mouth and trembled slightly, his face was already wet with rain, the cold rain and sea water, could not extinguish the anger in his heart, he began to hate Kudo Kuoke from this moment, and he will never forget him for the rest of his life.
"You give me a memory...... You're no longer my friend to the leopard, and you're no longer a friend to all of us, you're just a ruthless and unrighteous fellow. You'll disappear here for me right away! Get out of here! Even if I die here, I will die without regrets. If I hadn't died...... I'm going to take all my anger out on you! ”
After saying that, the remnant leopard sank to the bottom of the sea, and then the others did the same, desperately trying to rescue Momoki and Hanyu together. And Li Kestrel was still floating on the sea, he glanced at Kudo Kuke, and he smiled very gently.
"Kudo さん、さようなら! (Mr. Kudo, goodbye!) These were the last words that Li Kestrel said to Kudo nine years ago.
After saying this fluent Japanese, Li Hongzheng also sank to the bottom of the sea, and the ocean storm slowly came, the wind blew the waves undulating, and the thunder and lightning resounded in the sky. The nightlight under the helicopter shone on the hydrofoil, and Kudo knelt on the hydrofoil, not knowing if he was doing the right thing.
After realizing that he thought he had done something wrong, from this moment on, it was irreparable.
……
"In the end, I followed the helicopter back to the unit, and when the ocean storm passed, the army sent people to the Black Sea again to retrieve the remnants of the leopard, even if it was a corpse. Can...... The time will go for five hours, and under the entire black sea, no leopards and others have been found, and the troops were suspicious at that time. Maybe they were swept to another ocean by an ocean storm, or their bodies were eaten by huge sea creatures, although there are many speculations, but I still don't believe it. ”
"Because of this incident, I automatically withdrew from my position and returned to Japan in embarrassment. Since then, about the remnants of the leopard...... There was no news. Until now, I have encountered the remnant leopard again, but I have always felt guilty, and I feel guilty that I did not save the situation back then. ”
“なるほど! (I see!) Ah Chu held his chin with two fingers, as if he understood.
"Then why don't you go with the remnant leopard to save Momoki and Hanyu?" Chen Yunhan asked.
Kudo shook his head slightly, but didn't say anything.
Jiang Yixue looked like he understood, and suddenly became enlightened, "That kid survived an ocean storm, and I suddenly feel that he is so powerful!" ”
"Look at the people and look at you, alas......" Li Luo had nothing to say.
"Tonight's story is over, I'm out for a late-night snack." Kudo held his pockets in both hands.
"The story is over, and I still have something to say." Hua Xuning finished his coffee, put down his cup and stood up.
