Chapter 972 - On Vacation

Lin Rui and the others returned to St. Kaiser Island, and Long Noon once again reiterated the idea of letting them take a period of vacation. 『『【Big > book> bag> small > said> net dashubao]

"At the moment, the island of Saint-Kaiser is still under construction. There is a lot of infrastructure work. We have to build roads, power facilities. No new assignments will be accepted for the time being. I know that this short period of time has been very difficult, and I would like to take this opportunity to give you a full rest. Long Noon looked at the team members under him and said.

"I don't want to rest. Lin Rui hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "Maybe I can stay on the island during this time." ”

"No, this is my order. Besides, you can't do anything to stay. Financial management and resource co-ordination, construction and maintenance are all of Angel's expertise. No one is better at this, and as a combatant, you can't do it again. Long Noon shook his head and said, "And you need to relax very much." ”

"That's right, boss, we might be able to go to Europe to cool off. Sergei smiled and said, "Lincoln, where are you going to go on vacation?"

"I, I don't know. Maybe to Asia. Lincoln shrugged.

Lin Rui frowned and said, "I don't know what to do when I'm idle." ”

"Yes, then maybe Yelena can help you. Long Xiaowu smiled and said, "Boy, remember my words, anyone needs to rest." Especially with our high-stakes work, which is very stressful. I've seen a lot of guys who thought they were tough guys, and they either ended up in a mental hospital or died on the battlefield.

The only ones who survived were old fritters like me and Silver Wolf, and there were not too old fritters like Gu Lei and Zhao Jianfei. As for you, lad, you're still too tender. In our eyes, although you are no longer a rookie, you are also a small piece of fresh meat. ”

Lin Rui smiled bitterly, no matter who said this, he would not be convinced. But when this dragon fat man said this, he couldn't find any reason to refute it. No way, this dead fat man is qualified enough to say that. If he hadn't fought desperately against Brigadier General Lannis, his brothers would still be in a difficult situation.

"Don't take yourself too seriously, you're human too. It doesn't hurt to relax. Long Xiaowu smiled, "Pressure can make people alert and forge ahead, but too much pressure will completely destroy a person." It doesn't hurt to find a time away from the battlefield and feel comfortable. ”

Lin Rui shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything more. In the end, he reluctantly agreed to Long Noon's decision. But he really didn't have much interest in going on vacation, and in the end, at Yelena's repeated requests, he went on vacation with her to Russia. The place they went was Sochi, the world-famous Black Sea seaside resort city. Both men entered Russia under false identities and as tourists.

There are snow-capped mountains, as well as hydrogen sulfide hot springs close to 4, and a pleasant climate. Caucasian barbecue, Georgian finger dumplings, Turkish salad, and all kinds of delicacies are considered a good retreat. Lin Rui wasn't much interested in this, but when he breathed the air of the Red Polyana Snow Mountain for the first time, he was still shocked.

"How's it going? Yelena said to Lin Rui with a smile.

Lin Rui nodded, "Yes." ”

"I grew up here my entire childhood. When he was eleven years old, his family went to Zabaikalsk, the border area of China, Mongolia and Russia. I learned Chinese there, and I also learned to shoot there. Yelena said with a smile.

"At least I learned Chinese well, not like the guy White Bear, who had the taste of Northeast China dialect as soon as he opened his mouth." Lin Rui smiled and looked into the distance. From the mountains to the sea. This city is the longest and narrowest city in the world, with the Black Sea on one side and the Caucasus Mountains on the other, and the climate is almost pleasant all year round.

The streets are filled with happy tourists and a handful of locals, and the qiē here seems to have moved away from the sound of gunfire and gunpowder. They are here to enjoy. They don't know that there are people on the other side of the globe who spend their days in gunfire and bloodshed and even death, and that there are people who work as traffickers in bloodshed.

Yelena was like a happy little girl, and here she no longer had that gloomy face and creepy viper nickname. She's just a young girl. Lin Rui does sometimes admire these Russians, they are resolute enough, but they are very easy to be satisfied and happy.

Yelena ran over from a few vendors selling tourist products and handed something to Lin Rui, "Lin Rui, this is for you." ”

"What is this?" Lin Rui frowned and looked at the ornament-like thing, like some kind of badge and ribbon.

Yelena nodded, "This is the St. George ribbon, a kind of ribbon created by Russia to commemorate the victory in the Great Patriotic War. This ribbon with orange and black stripes symbolizes victory in Russia and is a sign of the heroism of the warriors on the battlefield. Yelena smiled and said, "It's a good match for you." ”

Lin Rui took the hand of the ribbon, his movements were a little stiff, he knew that victory and honor were perhaps the things that this nation was most proud of. But for him, none of this means much. Because he knows that bravery is not directly related to victory, and honor is only a false name.

He still took the ribbon badge and pinned it to his chest, but he didn't want to disappoint Yelena too much.

Just as Yelena took his arm and turned around, Lin Rui's eyes suddenly moved, and he frowned slightly as he looked at a figure flashing on the corner of the street. Even in the middle of the city, it is difficult for him to change the alertness habit that has been formed during the battle for a long time.

With just a glance, Lin Rui could be sure that he had seen this person before, and it seemed that he had been with them for a long time.

Lin Rui sighed and said, "We may not be able to get our wish on this vacation." ”

"What's wrong?" Yelena frowned.

"We're in trouble. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Someone is following us." ”

"Could it be that you're too nervous?" said Yelena with a frown.

"Maybe you're too relaxed. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "But there is only one way to prove it." He pulled Yelena away quickly, turning to one side of the street. Lin Rui knew that if this was a stalker, then this person would definitely follow him again. He also preferred that he was wrong.

Lin Rui quickly turned into a narrow alley with Yelena, and then stopped, waiting with Yelena for the stalker to appear. But to their surprise, no one had ever walked into the narrow alley.

Yelena breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Maybe you should really relax." ”

Lin Rui frowned, looked around, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid I'm right." We're really in trouble, and it's big trouble, and it's not just one person, it's a whole surveillance team. On the right, there was someone watching us from a high place at two o'clock, so there was no need for that person to follow up. ”
