Stewart's introduction to Brian is very interesting. When he introduced Kai to Brian, he used the description "my little brother in the Special Forces", but when he introduced Brian, he used "comrade".
The special forces that Kay and Stewart served in were real shadow forces. There were no records or files in the Pentagon. Only Special Command and the Joint Chiefs of Staff had their files. But when Stewart told Brian to introduce Kay, he still revealed something.
Although there is very little information, it is enough for these people. After all, their information is completely confidential. I did not see that after Kai retired, in order to avoid trouble, he never mentioned to anyone that he, Saji and the others were serving.
What was the situation at that time?
But in turn, when Stewart introduced Brian to Kai, he used a very broad term - comrade-in-arms. This is interesting.
Although Kai and Stewart didn't get along for a long time, only more than a year, they experienced a lot of life and death moments together! This kind of comradeship cannot be defined by the length of time together, it is a real life and death relationship.
But even so, Stewart did not reveal any information about Brian.
Comrade?
What comrade?
Stewart is famous for having a complicated background. Although he is from the military, he has cooperated with many agencies. So where does Brian belong? CIA? FBI? Department of Homeland Security? Or which special forces?
In short, there is only one possibility why Stewart is vague about Brian's background, and that is that Brian's background is not easy to explain.
Although Kai was curious about Brian's background, it was not a big deal, and Kai would not be unhappy because of it.
Anyway, since we are here, we are friends, what can we do? Let’s drink.
They kept drinking until past midnight.
"By the way, Kai, how is Saji?"
"Retired with me." Saji is older than Kai, and he has been with Stewart longer. The Destroyer, Duke and Meatball are not very familiar with each other. They are players recruited by Kai after him. As for the Destroyer, Duke and Meatball are not very familiar.
Portman, he is older than Sage, but...Stewart almost hit Portman with a black gun on the battlefield, and the relationship between the two was very bad, so Stewart didn't mention him at all.
As for the reason for the bad relationship between the two, it is also very simple. Stewart particularly hates homosexuals. Don’t look at Stewart’s unshaven face and unkempt appearance all day long, but this guy has very conservative ideas. He believes that men should be with women, otherwise
Why did God divide people into men and women?
That's why he particularly dislikes Portman. Of course, Portman himself is indeed very annoying, which is one of the reasons.
"I heard..." Stewart patted Kai's shoulder comfortingly. But he soon laughed: "But, well done! I've been unhappy with that guy Ross for a long time! I heard others say that he
This time I am so embarrassed! I haven’t dared to see anyone for a long time. But for some reason, he was promoted. I really don’t know what the big bosses above are thinking? Are they looking at people with their butts?”
This guy Ross... How should I put it? If you are the kind of radical soldier, you might like him. He is a typical hawk, tough, unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals, etc. In the eyes of some extremists, these are
Advantages, but in the eyes of others, this guy is just a lunatic who does not regard the lives of his subordinates as human lives. He will do anything to get promoted and make a fortune.
Stewart had interacted with Ross before, so he really didn't like this guy who didn't regard soldiers as human beings.
Others howled when they heard that Kai was retired after beating a general.
That's what soldiers are like. They can sacrifice their lives for the country, but it doesn't mean they like their bosses, especially those high-ranking officials they have no contact with at all. So when I heard that Kai actually dared to attack a general, I felt full of empathy.
They all asked him to give details.
Kai just smiled, but didn't know much about what happened in the first place. Firstly, his comrade died because of this. Kai didn't like to use this as a talking point. It was disrespectful to the goat. Secondly, there were too many things involved in it.
Yes, it’s hard to talk about.
Others are also from the military, and they are very clear about the confidentiality regulations for some special events. It can be said that not only will they go to jail, but they will also have to pay compensation! For Americans, going to jail is nothing, the important thing is to pay compensation.
So everyone saw that Kai didn't say anything, so they very wisely did not continue to ask questions.
Of course, we can't talk about that incident, but we can about what happened recently.
"The day before yesterday, I met that bastard Ross in Chicago."
"Oh? How's it going? Isn't his expression very exciting?" Stewart was very excited when he heard this. No matter where he goes, that guy Ross always looks like a man of five and six, and he makes himself look like Patton. He doesn't know how many soldiers there are.
Seeing him unhappy, Stewart was very unhappy seeing him anyway.
"Well... I guess he can't make any expressions." So Kai told Rose's tragic experience.
Once again it caused a roar of laughter!
"You mean Rose...!! Or use a magazine?!! Hahahahaha!"
“Nice job!!!”
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Although they were both born as soldiers, the United States is different from China. They are all young soldiers. Their discipline is far different from that of Chinese soldiers, so they appear to be full of gangsterism. Not only do they not feel the slightest reaction to this blatant retaliation
It was inappropriate, but everyone clapped their hands and applauded.
But Kai noticed that Brian didn't seem to mind this. Although he was also laughing, it seemed more like he was perfunctory. Everyone was laughing, and he didn't want to be special.
Kai didn't have any objections to this. He himself knew that what he did at that time was a bit insignificant and it was normal for others to look down on him. Even if it were someone else, Kai himself would not bother to use this method.
But for Ross...Kay hates him!
"But... won't you get into trouble if you treat Ross like this?" Stewart asked a little worriedly at the end. Although they all agreed that Ross was an idiot, the problem was that this idiot was a lieutenant general, and more importantly, Ross's father-in-law had once
He is a general and chief of staff of the Air Force.
Anyone who knows something about the U.S. military should know that the U.S. military has always been run by aristocrats. The U.S. system originated from the British. Although it has changed, it is indeed greatly influenced by the British system. As for the military system, it is even more so.
, when the United States was born, Britain was the world leader. So they also inherited the British aristocratic military system.
Looking at the list of senior generals of the US military, you will find a big problem, that is, the upper levels of the US military are controlled by a group of elites. It is even a bit hereditary. For example, the famous George Patton, whose
The family is originally a military family with a long history. During the American Revolutionary War, his family was already a senior military officer in the US military. His grandfather and uncle were both senior military officers. His father also graduated from the Military Academy, but he did not become a senior military officer.
He was only a soldier, became a lawyer, and became the Los Angeles District Attorney. His mother was also from a well-known family, and the family even had the mayor of Los Angeles.
If you read Baidu Encyclopedia, it will be said that Barton was born on a small farm. Hum, this "small farm" is actually a large manor of 810 hectares...
So even though Ross is a bitch-hating, others are very tough behind the scenes. This is also thanks to his father-in-law having already died, otherwise Ross would be even more arrogant now. But even though his father-in-law has been dead for a long time
, but among the top brass of the U.S. military whose hierarchy is almost solidified, Ross can still get a lot of help.
After all, classes are solidified. Those people have known each other since their ancestors and have their own set of relationships and rules of the game.
Under this kind of rules, even if Ross is a real idiot, he will reach a high-ranking position. What's more, Ross is not stupid. He is actually quite capable, but... his personality is really bad. In short, if there are no accidents, Ross is here
Before retiring, it should be no problem to get to the rank of general.
But now that Kai is doing this... I guess he's hanging.
Under such circumstances, it would be strange if Rose didn't fight to the death with Kai. Even if Kai had done a perfect job, neither Rose nor the military had an excuse to say anything, but if he couldn't stand it, it would be impossible for Rose to forget this humiliation. He would definitely find an opportunity to take revenge.
.
"Don't worry, I can handle it!"
Kai really didn’t think anything was wrong. Even if Ross was completely silent, Kai would be unhappy! His brother’s life was on the line! Ross wanted to just end the story like this? Impossible!
They still have fun to play!
After that, everyone made a tacit understanding and didn't mention this matter. What else? Did they conspire together to kill Ross? That doesn't make sense.
Everyone was talking like this, not knowing how they ended up in the current situation.
Stewart led a group of comrades-in-arms to work in the security industry in Los Angeles. I have to say that he was very right in doing so. A group of fighting men didn't have many skills to make a living except for the use of force. Should they go to work in the underworld?
That's even more impossible. After all, he is a soldier. He still has a bit of arrogance, so a career in security is just right.
Moreover, Los Angeles also has a demand for this field, and with their quality there, they are living a pretty good life.
There are a total of twelve people in their team. Stuart is responsible for contact, intelligence and mission planning, and the others are responsible for execution. Each time he takes an order, the daily income can reach 40,000 US dollars. Although he does not work every day, after a month, there are
Income of hundreds of thousands.
This is the reason why they only take on normal security work. When they registered, they did not apply for the qualification to carry guns. Therefore, most of the jobs with higher safety factor are temporary bodyguards for the obvious, or maintaining order.
of life.
To open a security business in Los Angeles, you need to register with the police station and the application can be approved before you can open the business. The security review for those who can carry guns will be more stringent, and you will need to pay a considerable fee every year.
Stewart felt that since the brothers had finally retired from the hail of bullets, there was no need to make retirement life so intense, so he just did some light work, earning less but with security.
No, they have another job the day after tomorrow, which is to provide security for a female star's fan meeting.
The whole journey takes about five hours and the reward is US$150,000.
Don't think that the reward is high, after all, this is security for a large event, which is very troublesome.
The only problem now is that they don't have enough manpower.
According to the other party's description, there were about 2,000 people at the scene. Even if the organizer's manpower was added, it seemed that they could handle it, but in fact there was still a shortage of people. The security industry is not as professional as other industries. Even if the organizer
There are people, and professionals are needed to provide guidance and on-site dispatch, but Stewart only has about ten people under his command, so he is really short of people.
"Brian, what do you think? Come and work with me. You are retired anyway, so you can't always stay at home and listen to those old vinyl records, right? If you work with us, you can kill time and make some extra money.
What’s wrong with that?”
Brian smiled a little shyly.
"Half of my life has been dedicated to this country, and now that I'm retired, I want to spend the rest of my time with my family."
When Kai was chatting with them before, he heard that Brian was once a workaholic and was away from home for many years, so that his wife and children were strangers to him and even resented him very much. But his sense of responsibility was too strong.
He had a job and had no time to go home. As a result, his family broke up. His wife divorced him, took away his daughter, and married another man.
Now Brian wants to make amends.
"Then you should do it with me! I remember Kenm is eighteen years old, right? She's going to college soon, right?"
"Well, UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles)!" Brian's face was full of smiles when he said this. UCLA is a world-renowned public research university, a member of the Alliance of Pacific Rim Universities and the International Public University Forum.
It is the university with the largest number of applicants in the United States and the number one public university in the United States. Among its alumni, there are 24 Nobel Prize winners, 4 Turing Award winners, 3 Fields Medal winners, 31 MacArthur Genius Award winners and 7
A Pulitzer Prize winner.
It is definitely a famous school among famous schools. It is no wonder that parents are unhappy if they can be admitted to such a university.
"What about tuition?"
"That's no problem. My retirement salary is enough to pay for her college tuition." Brian said confidently.
Retirement wages for people with special professions like theirs are very high. Otherwise, why would others work so hard just for the sake of patriotism? Don’t be ridiculous, no matter how patriotic you are, you still have to live.
"That's UCLA!"
Capitalism is like this, you get what you pay for. The first public university in the United States also has the most expensive tuition fees in the United States! In fact, this is not bad. After all, it is a public university with state financial subsidies, and the tuition is not as high as that of private universities.
It's not cheap for such a black heart. And the tuition is pretty good. What's more expensive is the living expenses. After all, this is Los Angeles!
With Brian's character, he will definitely pay his daughter's tuition and living expenses in full. Calculated in this way, it is definitely a big expense. What's more, he also has to live on his own, he has a loan, and he is not originally from Los Angeles.
He moved to Los Angeles just to be closer to his daughter. His house, car, medical insurance, life insurance, etc. all cost money!
It’s true that his retirement salary is very high, but the things above are even more expensive!
