Amelia Bright winced at the ice, and the tall figure of Farren Austin was imprinted in the window glass, along with the movement of the necklace she was putting around her neck.
“What is this?”
She lowered her head, her fingers resting on the pendant around her neck, an icy, cool piece of jade, white and transparent, with a watery platinum chain attached.
“A gift.”
A low voice came from behind her, mixed with the strong smell of alcohol, and the always cold voice was tinged with a bit of heat.
Amelia Bright turned around to see a slightly drunken face.
Farren Austin still has one hand on her shoulder, probably a little unsteady, his eyes are squinting.
She was so angry and amused.
“It’s not New Year’s Eve, why are you suddenly giving me a gift?”
“Don’t you like it?”
Farren Austin replied, which made Amelia Bright froze for a moment, and took a closer look at the necklace around her neck, a beautiful clean piece of jade, without a trace of impurities, round and watery, she had never seen such a beautiful white jade in her career as a jewelry designer.
“Like it.”
“Just like it.”
Farren Austin glanced at the phone she was holding out of the corner of her eye and asked, “On the phone?”
“Oh, it’s Bohdi Olson, drunk,”
Amelia Bright then remembered that the phone was still on and picked it up in front of Farren Austin.
“Hello?”
There was a slight snoring sound on the other end, and no movement for a long time.
Amelia Bright had no choice but to hang up the phone, “I drank too much, I guess I fell asleep, how much did you guys drink today?”
“Okay, not too much.”
“Forget it, Adjutant Xun said that the wine cellar inside the good wine all to move out, Bohdi Olson’s drinking capacity is already very good even drunk like this, I think you are also about the same, hurry up to sleep.”
“I haven’t showered yet.”
“How can you take a shower when you’ve been drinking like this today? Let’s get up in the morning and take a shower.”
“I can’t.”
The drunken Farren Austin was very different from his usual self, as if he had lost twenty years of age mentally, like a child, capricious and stubborn, he had to take a shower when he said he would.
Amelia Bright was afraid that he would fall in the bathroom, so she had to go in with him.
After she moved here, she hadn’t bathed him in the bathroom again, and this drunkenness reminded her of the time she spent in the Austin family’s old house.
Farren Austin was an introverted person at heart, and hardly anyone could get close to him except the closest people, so it’s surprising to think that he would let himself bathe him at that time.
The tight, strong back is strewn with wounds of varying depths, the wounds he received in the course of his missions over the years.
Amelia Bright was distressed, knowing that these wounds had long since healed, but she was still careful when rubbing his back.
“Farren, were all your missions very dangerous?”
“Yes.”
“Blue Eagle’s team members are called back by you, you are planning to reorganize the special operations team?”
Amelia Bright had been holding this in her heart for a long time, she was a measured person, Farren Austin’s military affairs were originally confidential, she almost did not ask, so what happened instead he did not hide, for example, the reorganization of Blue Eagle was done under her eyes.
The first two days, Adjutant Xun said that Bick and Beacher Oak were training new players, probably to fill the vacant positions.
It was much quieter inside the bathroom all of a sudden.
Farren Austin, drunk but still sober in such matters, thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice.
“Are you worried about me?”
“Well.”
Amelia Bright nodded a little, the towel rubbing the wound on his back, her eyes a little glazed over.
“I heard Adjutant Xun say that you have to leave a suicide note for your families every time you go on a mission, and once you die, the note will be sent to them, so I guess the missions you go on are the incredibly dangerous kind.”
“Don’t worry.”
“It’s impossible not to worry,”
Amelia Bright’s tone was somewhat dull, “In fact, have you ever thought that we are now living a good life, you just live with me to go on is not good? Why do you have to reorganize the special operations team?”
Because of Farren Austin’s leg, when Blue Eagle disbanded, so many years the leadership did not give Hounslow Military District assigned any difficult tasks, at most is the flood rescue and other natural disasters rescue.
But once Farren Austin’s application to reorganize Blue Eagle Special Forces was approved above, the special forces team was established, after which the dangerous tasks will fall on him.
Olson is used to seeing diplomatic problems, international cases, and cases involving gambling, drugs, and even arms dealing.
Farren Austin was silent for a few seconds, his eyes regained some clarity.
“Blue Eagle had to reorganize, when they were disbanded was forced, now to ask them to come back is also a matter of necessity, we still have a lot of things not done.”
“What do you have to do?”
“I’ll tell you slowly later.”
As he spoke, Farren Austin’s hand gripped the bullet-case necklace on his chest.
Amelia Bright saw it clearly from behind, and her eyes darkened at that moment.
It was because of Calla Moon again.
Adjutant Xun would not tell her about Calla Moon, but there was a die-hard Calla Moon fan on the Blue Eagle team, and if she asked Bick about Calla Moon, she would get the most detailed answers to everything.
Five years ago in a hostage rescue mission in Africa, Calla Moon was to cover the retreat of Farren Austin and died, when tons of explosives will blow up the entire warehouse, and finally no bones, only the bullet casing engraved with the name of Calla Moon was recovered.
Because it is a member of the classified group of the special operations team, so there are no photos and no records, from Bick’s mouth alone she could not imagine what this woman named Calla Moon actually looks like.
This question bothered Amelia Bright for several days, and the following day when she had a lunch date with Emily Guan, she talked about it.
Emily Guan, who had also recently been on leave, sniffed with disdain
“The woman soldier, not a female literary soldier, can look good? There are nine out of ten is a man woman like that, you have to say your husband to her as a brother can not give up I believe, to say that she as a lover to think about life I do not believe.”
“Really? You think she’s not as good as me?”
“Depends on how to compare it, you want to compare with her combat power that certainly can not ah, but than the body than beauty than business acumen, that is absolutely crushing it!”
Emily Guan was serious in her analysis.
“I think this Calla Moon must be with your husband’s side of the female soldier, called Bick the same, short hair, yellow and black skin, hands are full of calluses, microscope can not see men and women.”
“That’s too damaging.”
Amelia Bright sounded sorry, “Bick features are quite good, just do not like to dress up, every day dusty face so that is the case.”
“You still speak for her? I think they don’t think of you.”
Emily Guan showed a look of hatred and disdain.
Speaking of this, Amelia Bright was relieved, “It’s been better lately, just don’t care about me, rarely sarcastic anymore.”
“That’s enough for you, you’re really good at coaxing now.”
Emily Guan shook her head helplessly and muttered.
“Bick, Calla Moon the name is quite similar, they are not twin sisters, right?”
