Xu Rui and the crew of the Silverfish arrived in Seattle and were warmly welcomed by the Americans. In the evening, they checked into the most luxurious five-star hotel in Seattle. Just as Xu Rui was about to rest, Kelly knocked on the door and said she wanted to
I slept in Xu Rui's room and had to take a shower.
Xu Rui had no choice but to agree to Kelly's request. Kelly kept humming songs while taking a shower, asking Xu Rui to hand over towels and soap.
Xu Rui had no choice but to follow the instructions one by one. After taking a bath, Kelly entered the bedroom. One moment she said that the room was cold and asked Xu Rui to get her quilt. The next moment she said that the floor was too slippery and asked Xu Rui to get her a mop. In short
, which made Xu Rui very helpless.
Late at night, Kelly actually sang a beautiful love song in the bedroom, which made Xu Rui distracted. However, Xu Rui still gritted his teeth and persisted, and did not sleep well the whole night.
Early the next morning, Xu Rui left the door early with red eyes. When he met Joseph who was going to the toilet, Joseph asked: "Colonel, what did you do?"
Xu Rui just smiled bitterly and said he had some insomnia.
Joseph said: "Colonel, you must take care of yourself. When I go back this time, I will report to my superiors and apply for retirement, and I will try my best to run our fast food restaurant."
Xu Rui said: "Joseph, does your room have a sofa?"
"Of course." Joseph said.
"Great, I want to take a nap in your room." Xu Rui yawned and entered Joseph's room...
Early in the morning, all the members of the Yinhanyu had breakfast, and then took a group photo with the hotel staff. In the photo, everyone was smiling happily. Only two people were different. One was Xu Rui, who kept
One of them was yawning, and one was Kelly, with a gloomy look on her face.
Everyone only stayed in Seattle for one night, and then took a plane to fly to Washington. The plane was flying in the air and suddenly became bumpy. Then, the plane's broadcast said: "Our plane has encountered strong convection and it is very dangerous. Please keep your back."
Parachute, ready to jump at any time.”
Then, two flight attendants immediately helped everyone carry their parachutes, and after a while, Kelly screamed.
"Oh my god, I don't have a parachute!"
After hearing Kelly's words, everyone was shocked. The turbulence of the plane became even more severe. It was shaking constantly and could lose control at any time. If there was no parachute, it would be shattered into pieces if it fell from an altitude of 10,000 meters.
When Kelly was helpless, Xu Rui gave Kelly his parachute.
After a while, the plane finally calmed down, and the radio said: "We have safely passed through the strong convection area. I wish everyone a pleasant journey."
"yeah!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with smiles on everyone's faces. They put away their parachutes one after another. Xu Rui went to get the parachute that was given to Kelly. Unexpectedly, Kelly instead of thanking Xu Rui, she dropped the parachute.
On Xu Rui's body.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned and wondered what was going on. Even Xu Rui was puzzled. He left the chance of survival to Kelly in times of crisis. Why did he treat himself like this instead?
Just listen to Kelly say: "Xu, you were so brave just now, why were you so timid like a mouse last night?"
Xu Rui was completely speechless. In an instant, he finally understood that all Kelly's actions last night, including singing and bathing, were clearly throwing herself into her arms.
In the cabin, all the men cast jealous looks at Xu Rui. Apparently, they understood something from Kelly's words. James broke the embarrassment in the cabin and said: "Guys, the danger is over. , I think we should take a good rest, I’m afraid we’ll be busy when we get to Washington.”
Seeing James coming to his rescue, Xu Rui returned to his seat, yawned, and fell asleep...
The territory of the United States is really vast. From Seattle on the Pacific coast to Washington on the Atlantic coast, the plane flew for several hours. In the afternoon, the plane slowly landed in Washington, the capital of the United States.
Washington, the administrative center of the United States, after a long journey for most of the day, the plane finally landed at the Washington Airport. Then, the scene at the Seattle Airport repeated itself again, and the scale was larger than that of Seattle, and even the special assistant to the President of the United States, Cole He personally went to the airport to welcome the heroes' return on behalf of the president.
The officers and soldiers of the Silver Hanyu were drowned in flowers and applause.
At the airport, Cole shook hands cordially and took photos with Xu Rui, James and others. Afterwards, the Silver Man and his crew were arranged to stay in a five-star hotel not far from the White House. Soon after, news came that President Roosevelt will receive them tomorrow morning and will attend a dinner to raise funds for the war effort tonight.
When Xu Rui and others heard about the dinner, they thought of the scene in Seattle, the fake smiles and the noisy scene. Many people even felt that they were like a clown, showing their hypocritical side under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes. .
However, for the vast majority of people, they have no choice. The reason why they can return to the United States is mainly for propaganda purposes. MacArthur and the U.S. government have determined to turn the officers and soldiers of the Silver Hand into American-style heroes. They built up Americans' confidence that they would be invincible.
In fact, for these politicians and generals, the Silver Hanyu's achievements were more significant in terms of political propaganda than in actual combat.
The dinner party came soon. Each member of the Silver Hanyu was wearing a brand new military uniform, looking heroic. Sixty people stood in two rows, and everyone showed their best side in front of everyone.
First, the representatives of all parties gave passionate speeches, and then the host's inflammatory language. Every member of the Silver Hanyu even felt a little redundant. The meaning of their existence was just a symbol, and they did not need to say a word. , just keep the smile on your face.
As for the power to speak, it always belongs to the big shots.
The dinner lasted for a full two hours, but none of the members of the Silver Hanyu had a sip of food or a sip of water. They just stood there, watching the dignitaries talking and enjoying the food on the table. of delicacies.
"Major, I'm so hungry," Carl said.
James said, "Man, please bear with me for now. We can have something to eat when the dinner is over."
"Damn, I've had enough!" Joseph said while keeping a smile on his face.
"It should be over soon." James said.
At this moment, a surprising scene appeared. Xu Rui walked out of the Silver Hanyu team and sat in front of a table. Everyone stared at him dumbfounded, wondering what he wanted to do.
Two soldiers in charge of security came over and politely whispered to Xu Rui: "Sir, what do you want to do?"
Xu Rui said: "We have been flying for a whole day and haven't eaten lunch. I thought, should we eat something?"
At this time, the officer in charge of the dinner came over and said, "What on earth do you want to do?"
Xu Rui said: "I'm just hungry and want to eat something."
After Xu Rui finished speaking, he picked up the knife and fork, took a set of tableware, cut a piece of veal steak, and started eating.
This sudden scene made several wealthy businessmen frown, and one wealthy businessman said to the people next to him: "What a rough man, he doesn't understand any rules."
Xu Rui and the rich man were sitting at the same table. Naturally, he heard the words of the rich businessman very clearly. A cold light flashed in Xu Rui's eyes and he said loudly: "Say it again."
The wealthy businessman was shocked by Xu Rui's momentum and did not dare to say anything. He just turned his head and face aside.
"If you dare, say it again!" Xu Rui said in a cold voice.
Xu Rui's voice was so loud that the hall instantly became quiet and you could hear a pin drop.
A staff member in charge of hosting the dinner came over and asked: "Mr. Officer, what can I do?"
Xu Rui said: "This gentleman just said that I am rude and don't understand any rules. I am right."
The wealthy businessman mustered up some courage and said: "Yes, what kind of occasion is this? How can you come to my table to eat without permission?"
Xu Rui snorted coldly and said: "Everyone, have you heard this? The reason why this gentleman called me rude is because I went to his table to eat. Well, gentlemen, I want to ask, are you
Do you think so too?"
No one answered Xu Rui's words, but Xu Rui saw disdain in some people's eyes.
Xu Rui spoke again: "Gentlemen, you are the elites of the United States. To you, we are just a group of rough soldiers. We have no rules and even disturb your fun. I'm right."
"Colonel, tell me if you have anything to say in the back," the dinner staff member said.
"Shut up!"
Xu Rui's voice went cold, and the staff member was immediately shocked by Xu Rui.
Xu Rui said: "Yes, we soldiers are a bunch of rough guys and don't know any rules, but have you ever thought about it, while we are bleeding on the battlefield, you guys are sitting here eating steaks and drinking whiskey
, when you are reuniting with your wives and children, and reuniting with your family, many of the children of us poor people have died on the battlefield. How many wives have lost their husbands, and mothers have lost their sons, but without the bloodshed and sacrifice of we rough people, you would have become
Slaves of the Japanese!"
"Today's dinner is really interesting. You say that we are heroes, but in your hearts you completely treat us like rubbish. You are talking loudly and impassionedly on the sidelines. We can only stand aside and look at you with a smile. You are in front of the table.
Tasting fine wine and delicious food, but we have to stand there motionless and watch you eat and drink, while we ourselves are starving. In your eyes, there is a natural gap between us soldiers and you superior people. We are not worthy of being with you.
Sitting together and savoring the joy of victory, you have fucking forgotten that without us soldiers fighting the enemy out there, you are just a bunch of stinky fucking shit and deserve to be stepped on by the Japanese..."
