Chapter 294: "Deserter"
In the dimly lit small bar, Lin Rui sat in a corner of the bar, calmly looking at the decadent guy in the distance. ````
That person was the target he was going to recruit this time - Jason.
He was a stout young man, and the shabby yellow shirt on his body didn't seem to hide his strong muscles. Messy hair and unshaved stubble in days made him look a little older than his actual age.
Jason had been drinking a lot, but he was still drinking. No one dared to stop him, especially after the drunk had beaten several people with a billiard cue. No one dared to call the police, because almost everyone here knew him.
This guy who was imprisoned for desertion is the villain that everyone in this town fears and can't hide his disgust.
Lin Rui walked up to him, waved his hand and asked the bartender to bring a bottle of whiskey and put it on the table. "I should treat you to a drink, Jason. Lin Rui looked at Jason and said.
"Who the are you?" Jason said as he looked at him.
"It doesn't matter who I am, it's who you are. Lin Rui said with a smile. "Look here, this is where you grew up and now everyone is afraid of you. You could have come back here as a glamorous and honorable veteran. But because of something, this can never happen. ”
"So what?" said Jason, sneering.
"Not good, but you're a little unwilling. Lin Rui sighed and said, "I can see that you are very unwilling, otherwise how could you be drinking here?"
"What if you don't drink?" Jason said after a moment of silence, "There are some things that individuals simply can't fight against. ”
"Tell me about you. Lin Rui poured him a glass of wine and said, "Maybe I can look at this from a different angle." ”
"You?huh!" Jason said with a mocking wave of his hand, "What are you?"
Lin Rui looked at him and smiled, and said lightly, "Compared to those military officials you have seen, I may not be nothing." But at least I'm not the kind of person who abandons my comrades. ”
"I didn't abandon them, and I'm not one to run away from fighting. It was a mess, we didn't have enough intelligence information, and the locals, they all saw us as enemies. As long as we have weapons in our hands, and if the conditions allow, even women and children will shoot at us. The mission failed, and my only mistake was to survive. And there needs to be someone at the top to be accountable for this. Jason slammed his fist on the table and said angrily.
"So you're the one who was outcast. Lin Rui said calmly.
"I gave up a qiē, in the bloody war of Afghanistan, several wounds, and never complained. Because I consider myself a patriot, a qiē for the United States. But this country doesn't love me at all. How could they treat me like that?" Jason took another drink.
"Because you're just a soldier. Lin Rui said calmly, "The ultimate role of a soldier is to exchange death for victory, in exchange for the benefits needed by certain people or certain groups. This is true regardless of the country's soldiers, there is no difference. So you may think you're being treated unjustly, but war is never just. ”
"I'm going to him for injustice!" Jason slammed the glass in his hand to the ground and shook it, "You're not me, so you don't understand my feelings." For me it was a betrayal. ”
"If you think it's a betrayal, it's first of all because you trust, and only trust will be betrayed. Lin Rui shrugged.
"Who the hell are you?" Jason said, turning his head to look at him.
Lin Rui smiled, "Maybe the person who can change your current situation, I can give you a job, at least so that you can afford to drink, maybe you can also afford to drink good wine." ”
Jason glanced at him, shook his head, and said, "Work? Except for drinking!" he slapped the bar again, "give me another glass." ”
Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Maybe we should talk in another place." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed Jason violently, pulling him backwards. Jason was drunk, but his reaction was still there. At the moment when he fell backwards, he supported the ground with one hand, and the person turned around in the air, and his hands suddenly grabbed Lin Rui's waist. Then he took advantage of the momentum to exert his strength, and threw Lin Rui out with a strong over-the-shoulder throw.
His strength was so great that Lin Rui was slammed into the wall. But Lin Rui was extremely flexible, and his feet kicked the wall first, and then kicked his legs back. Wrapping his body around Jason, an excellent judo technique, threw Jason to the ground.
Jason was pressed under him and roared furiously, and Lin Rui used his anti-joint technique to twist his hand behind his back, and pushed him into the bathroom. "I'm sorry guys, but it's going to be okay right away. Lin Rui turned his head and smiled at the others.
The people in the bar were stunned, and no one thought that this Asian, who didn't look very strong, would actually subdue Jason, a wild bull. For a while, many people were stunned.
Lin Rui pushed Jason into the bathroom, pressed him to the edge of the pool, and turned on the faucet to flush. It wasn't until Jason groaned and couldn't resist anymore that he let go. Lin Rui wiped the water marks on his hands with a tissue and said calmly, "I'm sorry, but I think this is the only way to make you wake up quickly." So that we can talk about the following questions. ”
Jason struggled to get up and angrily pounced on Lin Rui again. Lin Rui grabbed his wrist with his backhand and said coldly, "Do you still want to try? Next time it's not as simple as flushing, I'll put you in the toilet to flush." Until you spit out all the wine in your stomach. ”
"Who the are you?" Jason said hatefully.
"I've already said that I'm a guy who can give you a chance. Lin Rui sneered. "Ever heard of a private military company?"
"Private military companies?" Jason frowned.
Lin Rui nodded, "That's right, there is a new company that needs someone with professional skills like you." Again, we need combat skills, not drinking skills. Truth be told, your drinking skills are far from good. ”
Jason shook his head and said, "The average private military company doesn't recruit someone who has a history of desertion, how did you find me?"
"We have our own messaging channels. And your military technology is appreciated. A member of the Green Beret of the U.S. Army Special Forces, an expert in guerrilla warfare, skilled in ambush and blasting. Cross-trained in other specialties with the ability to train and command an infantry company when necessary. Lin Rui said slowly.
Jason wiped the water marks on his face with his hand, and said after a moment of silence, "What do I get?"
"In addition to having an objective income, it also allows you to get back into the team and live more like a person. Lin Rui looked at him and said slowly, "This is an opportunity." Unless you want to continue to be a nasty drunkard in this filthy and run-down bar. You can think about it, but I won't wait long, I have limited time. Because I have to recruit others. ”
