MTL - Overturned Tower-Chapter 16 thank you people
After Russell's words came out, Xiao Liuli also knew that she could no longer ask anything from Russell.
Because after deriving this sentence, all problems can eventually lead to this conclusion. This is the power of words.
Why didn't you use a gun at that time, why did you take such a risk, why did you become so brave, why did you sacrifice your life to fight...or ask why you wanted to kill yourself, why did you carry psychic weapons in violation of the regulations, all of which can be cited by Russell in the end. To this same conclusion.
The answer of the former is, "This is all to protect the captain"; while the latter is because "this ultimately protects the captain", she is not easy to ask.
Otherwise, I'm afraid Xiao Liuli will be complained by the angry captain.
When Russell protected the captain, he was also protecting himself, which provided sufficient motivation; and he also indirectly protected the people on the airship, the airship itself, and the buildings that collapsed after the airship fell. Doubt is his merit.
But Russell's words are obviously more powerful than the answers obtained when answering these questions separately, and are more suitable for writing in the daily newspaper. And even if Xiao Liuli continued to ask questions, she could only get roughly the same answer from Russell, and her professional level would be questioned instead... It would be better to keep the topic of the interview at the essential part.
After Xiao Liuli took the initiative to exchange contact information with Russell, she took the staff and security personnel and left by helicopter.
After that, the enthusiasm of the passengers in the cabin burst out immediately.
It was only after they arrived at their destination that they learned that the airship they were on had already been hijacked—and the group of thugs who hijacked the airship was a very vicious group of wanted criminals named "Babel"... Even the crew members of the airship were ruthlessly killed and thrown into the sea, leaving no place for burial.
Though their target should be someone in first class. But when the fuel of the airship was almost exhausted, in order to delay the time, they still did not allow the captain to land.
After all, if the airship lands, these prosthetic mercenaries can still jump out. But those ordinary people will definitely suffer.
"Say it quickly, thank you brother."
A lady with slender horse ears held her daughter's shoulders and patiently taught her.
The girl who looked to be only five or six years old raised her head, and said to Russell seriously, "Thank you brother."
After the girl finished speaking, she asked curiously, "Is brother... a hero?"
Russell froze for a moment.
He felt a little dazed for a moment when he spoke to the girl.
The boy with cat ears touched his ears, and smiled distressedly: "My brother doesn't know either."
... These days, do immature girls who have to be taught by their parents even to thank them know the word "hero"?
She probably doesn't even know how to write the word hero, let alone what it stands for.
But she can think of the word on her own, and hopes that Russell is her imaginary hero.
This is the first time that Russell vaguely realizes what kind of "hero" people in this world desire....
It's not about requiring heroes to have any merits or standards, save someone, or do some great deeds...but to imagine an imaginary hero first, and then hope that people in reality can become it.
Where are people here. This is the imaginary god, the symbolic savior.
No wonder these days, there are so many heroes with explosive personalities.
How good is it to satisfy such people's fantasies about heroes...
Just realizing this made Russell feel even heavier.
"Please don't say that—"
A woman in her thirties, wearing glasses and with bird feathers behind her ears said eagerly, "There is no doubt that you, who saved us, are a real hero in our eyes!"
Russell remembered her.
After Xiao Liuli left, this person came out of the first class to thank Russell.
Passengers in the public cabin are only threatened by the possibility of an "empty boat crash". But these first-class passengers were actually uploaded with viruses and had their memories stolen. Moreover, they didn't even know which person in the first class the group of people had designated.
Guests who can travel in first class will more or less have some secrets in their minds.
If those gangsters are allowed to leave, then all of them will be unlucky—unable to determine "whose memory the gangster stole", all of their memories can only be regarded as lost, and all the information they have is lost. are considered to have been leaked. This cannot be left to chance.
There is no doubt that this will cause their companies to suffer huge economic losses. Countless people will have to work overtime for this, and countless plans will be forcibly terminated because of this. The company's think tank and executives will meet all night to re-determine the direction of these plans. Some secret and important locations will be abandoned, they have to re-migrate servers and other equipment, and even don't know how many people have to be forced to move.
And all of them in the first class will pay a heavy price for this...even if they did nothing wrong, even if they are the victims of this incident.
After all, someone has to be held accountable for the company's losses.
From this point of view, Russell is their hero.
Russell beheaded and killed these robbers before the airship landed, ensuring that the confidential information in their minds was not leaked, and he didn't know how many small companies that were in the midst of life and death were saved...to what extent resources were prevented from evaporating.
"I don't know where Mr. Russell intends to go to find a job when he comes to Happy Island?"
A man with glasses and antlers on his head asked seriously: "I am the marketing manager of Tianen Group... This is my electronic business card. If you are interested in working for Tianen Group, I can help you You contacted a salary starting from R4."
As he spoke, he handed a crystal-like business card inlaid with a pattern of many silver threads to Russell with both hands.
This kind of business card, which is as expensive as a work of art, can read the identity information of the other party only by swiping it on the prosthetic body without inserting the chip slot. While being safe enough, it also has a certain collection value.
After Russell thanked him, he took the business card away.
He knew before... In Tianen Group, the level of R4 is not considered low. It is roughly equivalent to the level of "technical supervisor" and "senior engineer".
The marketing manager itself is the salary of R5. It is indeed very sincere to introduce Russell to the starting work of R4. Of course, this is also related to Russell's academic qualifications and mentors.
But of course Russell would not say that the "uncle" he was going to join was the other party's immediate boss. Such disappointing words were to save his face... After all, there are many relationships and many paths. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
These first-class guests, without exception, all came out to thank Russell.
Some hope to arrange work for Russell, some want to make friends with Russell... and some want to invite Russell to dinner.
The most generous among them was the man who appeared last, wearing brown sunglasses indoors, with slightly dark skin, and a man who spoke carelessly. He directly claimed that he would give Russell a set of villas and floating vehicles, as well as a maid and a driver, so he was a little out of touch with Russell at the time.
The other first-class passengers around were also stumped by the words and didn't know what to say.
Of course, they also intend to give Russell some thanks - but this kind of talk is not suitable for public speaking.
If you really want to express your gratitude, why don't you just send money in private after adding friends?
Saying such things in front of the crowd... There is no doubt that it is a loss of the value of the identity of "hero".
— as if Russell was there for the money.
This doesn't feel like thanking you, but rather making senseless trouble.
Even the passengers who were watching on the edge suddenly felt a little disgusted with this person.
Amirus, who was still watching from the sidelines, came to the rescue, and drove the man away with a few words. He also turned down other people's requests to invite Russell to eat and stay at the same time—the reason was that he wanted to help Russell deal with the wound as soon as possible to avoid scarring.
People suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
After all, no matter what, it is impossible for anyone to dare to compete for wealth with an old elf.
This is a monster that has lived from more than a thousand years ago to the present. It has a higher gold content than any thousand-year-old family, so I don't know where to go...
Russell, on the other hand, looked at the back of that person as he left, thoughtfully.
