"Hal!!"

The water Valentin just drank into his mouth spurted out again.

"You are a navy, not a soldier of a kingdom. You should be thinking about how to catch pirates, not bandits, do you understand?"

"Report to the colonel that I caught a group of bandits on the way to find pirates."

"you!"

A female assistant next to Colonel Valentine quickly brought a cup of tea, suppressing a smile and said: "Colonel, please have a good drink of tea. Captain Hal is an upright person. Since he encountered a bandit, you know that he It’s impossible to ignore it.”

Hal said: "Colonel Valentine, you will also be credited with catching the pirates this time."

Valentine snorted coldly.

He calmed down and then asked: "I heard that you had another conflict with the Androser Kingdom's army on your way to the base?"

"Not at all, Colonel. On my way back, I saw their security forces were in trouble collecting taxes, so I helped them. It was all out of kindness."

As the colonel of the 53rd branch, Valentine is the highest commander, and he has a deep heart. He will not listen to Hal's words at all. He knows exactly what kind of man he is in front of him, not to mention that Valentine has a high-ranking official status in the Kingdom of Androser just now. My friend called me and told me everything.

But he had no intention of blaming Hal, he just acted unhappy.

"Huh, as a navy, don't always have trouble with people from the participating countries. You have to know that you didn't get much punishment when you fought against the regular army of the Kingdom of Andros. On the one hand, I suppressed you, and on the other hand, Anders King Andrag of the Rother Kingdom doesn’t take it to heart, otherwise, even I wouldn’t be able to protect you, do you understand?”

Hal nodded silently. Seeing that his attitude of admitting his mistake was quite good, Valentine softened his tone:

"The world government does not regard the navy as very important at all, and these participating countries do not think that our branch can play a big role in protecting them. We just represent a face of the navy headquarters. You must remember Don’t be too unscrupulous about this.”

Afterwards, Valentin explained some things to Hal, until finally when Hal was about to leave, he threw a piece of paper on the table.

Above the document was a transfer order, a change in Hal's position.

Promoted from captain to major.

After Hal left, Valentine's assistant asked Valentine tentatively: "Colonel, those last disrespectful words are not allowed to be said, right?!"

"What does it matter if you tell him? A young man who only makes trouble everywhere and is reckless. If I don't suppress him, do you think he can still stay in the Kingdom of Androser? In the Navy? Believe me, here He is much smarter than you about this matter."

The assistant nodded suddenly, and then asked puzzledly: "Why do you think Captain Hal...oh, no, Major Hal will cause you trouble, and you have to give him a promotion so that he can stay here safely. Wouldn’t the base be a better choice?”

"A restless man will never be idle no matter where you leave him. Should I expel him from the navy? Naturally, the reason for his promotion is to show it to the noble officials of the Androser Kingdom. Even if we It’s a branch, and it’s not something they can sneer at casually.”

Valentin said: "In addition, although it is troublesome to deal with, I like this person's approach. Let him do it to disgrace the Kingdom of Androser. We only need to pretend to be confused at the critical moment, and we will be able to do it afterwards." Why don't you want to let out a bad breath?"

The light from the oil lamp fell on Valentine's eyes, and a hint of cunning flashed through his eyes.

"Give him a little sweetness, and he will know what to do in the future. Otherwise, who do you want me to rely on? Those lieutenant colonels and majors who are waiting at the base for the pirates to come to their door? Or should I take action myself? Give me a little more merit, and it won't take long I can be promoted to the Navy Headquarters and leave this disgusting place."

"Hmph, I not only want to promote him to major, but if he can capture a few more pirate groups for me, I will also promote him to lieutenant colonel. When he leaves here and enters the headquarters, I even recommend him to this job in excitement. The colonel of the branch may not necessarily..."

……

As soon as night falls in the Kingdom of Androser, those "rats" who dare not go out during the day and only dare to sneak out to look for food at night will infiltrate every part of the country.

Under the dark night, this country will become their carnival place.

There is a tavern not far from the 53rd branch. It is brightly lit. It is one of the few places that dares to peek into the darkness of the night amid the carnival of the "rats".

The decoration of this tavern is not luxurious, it has three floors, and its ordinary appearance has nothing noteworthy.

At this moment, in the third-floor room of this tavern, a young man wearing gold-rimmed round glasses, with a delicate and fair face, but a thin body, sat cross-legged on a bed, with a small tea table in front of him. There are many tea sets on the tea table.

He was holding a teapot and pouring tea into the teacup in the hand of a middle-aged man opposite.

Little by little, steaming, brown and fragrant tea flowed from the spout into the cup in the man's hand.

Soon, the tea cups were filled.

The boy showed no sign of stopping. The tea overflowed and spread onto the man's hand. The hot tea made him let out a hissing sound.

But he didn't dare to put down the teacup. He could only open his eyes hard, stare at the teacup, and endure the severe pain.

Until the boy stopped.

"Please taste."

The middle-aged man tremblingly raised his red-hot hands, poured all the still-hot tea in the cup into his mouth, and drank it in one gulp.

The hot tea kissed his mouth, and the severe pain spread all the way to his abdomen. Several veins bulged on the man's neck, but he still could not say a word.

The young man picked up the tea cup in front of him, gently blew the hot air off the surface of the tea, and then calmly sucked a little into his mouth.

"Have you found it?"

"People have been...searching all over the Kingdom of Androser, but so far, nothing...has been found." The middle-aged man lowered his head, his voice trembling with fear.

The temperature of the tea in his hand dropped, and the boy drank it in one gulp.

"You have to understand the truth. Since it is already in our bowl, he can only ask for it if we take it out ourselves."

"If I don't move the chopsticks, then he can't reach my bowl with the chopsticks."

The young man paused and his tone became a little cold: "What should I do if someone insists on reaching out with chopsticks?"

The middle-aged man immediately raised his head. He looked at the calmness on the young man's face, as if he was asking a trivial matter, but he understood that this question must not be taken carelessly.

"I think I should break...break it."
