920: Chapter 925 The Farther You Throw, the Better 920: Chapter 925 The Farther You Throw, the Better Brian and Paul went to the airport; more people had arrived in Baghdad, so Brian needed to pick them up.
Yang Yi and the others didn’t accompany Brian because he surely had to explain certain matters to his forr subordinates, such as why he had defected and how he ended up taking the bla for others.
No matter what, Brian’s experience of defection was a scar that could neither be erased nor healed.
Whether he was deceiving his own subordinates or finding an excuse to cover up his history of defection, he definitely didn’t want others present during such discussions, so naturally, Yang Yi and his group didn’t follow.
By the ti Brian brought people to the Green Zone, he had obviously already spoken with his subordinates, so the atmosphere among them was relatively calm, but there were visible marks of being hit on Brian’s face.
When Yang Yi was sending off Jethro, he happened to run into the newly returned Brian, followed by three newcors.
One was a thin, middled-aged man looking quite disgruntled, his clothes dirty and carrying an old, filthy leather suitcase; his face scread despair.
There was also a seemingly normal middle-aged man with so stubble on his face, looking calm.
The last person was rather interesting; he appeared financially well-off, evident from the watch and sunglasses he wore, and despite being in Baghdad, he was dressed up in a suit and leather shoes.
Seeing Yang Yi, Brian cleared his throat lightly, then turned to the three behind him and said, “This is… Sea God, you can also call him Robot, a real genius.
Most importantly, he is our boss.”
Brian definitely wouldn’t say that this is just a ‘little egg’, a rookie who had just started, and now these forrly aweso but currently down-and-out individuals would have to work for him.
Brian would only praise Yang Yi to the skies, for obvious reasons.
After introducing Yang Yi, Brian pointed to the short man behind him and said, “This is Black Jack, our assault specialist.”
Yang Yi nodded to Black Jack, then stepped forward to extend his hand, smiling, “Hello.”
Black Jack looked displeased and ignored Yang Yi’s extended hand, sizing up Yang Yi instead.
At this mont, the man in a suit and shoes stepped forward, shook Yang Yi’s hand enthusiastically, and said, “Hello, I’m Bill, Bill Livingston.
My friends call Grenade, pleased to et you.”
Yang Yi greeted him with a broad smile, “Hello, Bill.”
Brian’s expression was a bit unnatural.
He pointed to another person and said, “This is Jackson.”
Yang Yi released his handshake with Bill, and after Jackson briefly shook his hand, he nodded and said, “Hello, I heard about you from the boss here, well done.”
Alright, another who only considered Brian as the boss, but that was fine; Yang Yi didn’t intend to have the Magic Box Squadron regard him as a true boss.
Just then, Stone Statue stepped out from his room, but upon seeing the newcors, his expression changed, and he imdiately turned back.
“Hey, Stone Statue!
It’s really great to see you!
How are you?
I heard you turned Hunter; how has your haul been?”
Stone Statue was about to leave, but upon hearing Bill’s shout, he quickly returned to his room.
Bill seed unperturbed, bursting into laughter, then loudly said to the others, “Stone Statue is still the sa old, ha ha…”
Stone Statue reopened the door, then angrily said to Brian, “Why is he here!”
Brian spread his hands, and Stone Statue angrily slamd the door shut again.
Bill continued to laugh heartily.
Brian said helplessly, “Bill, don’t do that, Stone Statue might really leave.
Things aren’t the sa as before.
Don’t always provoke him.”
Bill shrugged, then as Zhang Yong opened his door to see that Brian’s people had arrived, he also ca out and waved to the others, saying, “Hello there, guys.”
Black Jack still looked unhappy, as if everyone he saw owed him money.
Jackson greeted Zhang Yong amiably, while Bill quickly walked up to Zhang Yong and enthusiastically shook his hand.
rcenaries seldom shook hands, so Zhang Yong wasn’t used to handshaking, but Bill liked to shake hands with everyone he t.
“Hello, I’m Bill Livingston, brothers also call Grenade, a nickna I haven’t been called in many years.
It feels really good to be called that again.
So, what’s your na, brother?”
Zhang Yong was a bit startled, and imdiately said, “My na is Zhang Yong, you can also call … Gambler, no no, my nickna used to be Gambler, but now I’m called Lucky!”
“Lucky, that nickna is really great, who doesn’t like good luck?
Ha ha, your nickna is fantastic, brother, I really should have t you earlier.”
Bill was very enthusiastic.
Zhang Yong was also a bit surprised by Bill’s enthusiasm, then he also said with a full-faced smile, “I also think Lucky is a great nickna.
So why are they calling you Grenade?
I guess you must be very brave.”
Suddenly, the door to Stone Statue’s room burst open, and his head popped out, angrily shouting, “Idiot!
The farther, the better!”
The door slamd shut again, and just as Yang Yi and the others looked at each other bemusedly, Stone Statue reopened the door and loudly said, “It’s better to throw it farther!”
Of course, a hand-grenade must be thrown, and in most cases, the farther, the better.
Although Stone Statue’s explanation was not very clear, the aning behind Bill’s nickna was clearly conveyed.
Bill laughed again, then winked at Zhang Yong, saying, “Stone Statue is my friend; he’s just too excited to see .
Only I have this charm.
Think about it, when have you ever heard Stone Statue talk so much?”
Zhang Yong thought for a mont, then agreed, saying, “You’re right, I have never seen Stone Statue talk this much.”
Stone Statue’s room door opened again, and he stuck his head out, bellowing, “Get lost!”
The door slamd shut heavily again.
Yang Yi felt a bit awkward, and he thought Brian’s team seed not very unified.
But Brian and his team seed contemplative, their expressions translating to a sense that a familiar scene had finally re-erged.
Only Bill looked self-satisfied, saying to Zhang Yong, “Look, only I can make Stone Statue speak.
What does that tell you?
It tells us our friendship is truly special.
Oh, do you know how amazing Stone Statue is?”
