Chapter 84: Chapter 84: The Little Sister’s Mercenary Dream
Big men actually don’t mind being watched...
But Mountain Eagle didn’t know how much of a shock he had brought to Marta...
Not because of how good his physique was, but because of the injuries on his body...
The large bruises on Mountain Eagle’s ribs, abdomen, and shoulder clearly displayed what he had gone through in the recent past.
Those were contusions caused by bullet impacts on the Bullet-Proof Vest, which wouldn’t fade away in ten days or half a month.
The bruises on Mountain Eagle’s body, along with the gauze on his left arm and neck, indicated he had been through a gun battle of extreme intensity.
In such a fierce battle, if Mountain Eagle survived, the fate of his opponents could be easily guessed.
Girls who play with guns generally have fiery temperaments, but because they know their stuff, they have a natural respect for real warriors.
Shooting targets doesn’t make one a tough guy; remaining clear-headed amidst a hail of bullets and staying calm after being shot does!
Mountain Eagle was amused by Marta’s somewhat childish demeanor. He quickly threw on a Polo shirt, tucked the hem into his casual pants, and then fastened a tactical belt with a quick-release holster around his waist.
Mountain Eagle chambered a magazine into his pistol, subconsciously pulled back the hammer, and disengaged the safety. It was only when he was about to insert the pistol into the holster that he realized this wasn’t a danger zone.
Mountain Eagle patted his forehead and after returning the hammer to its original position, he abandoned the idea of carrying spare magazines, picked up a baseball cap and a pair of sunglasses, closed the case with the firearms and ammunition inside, locked it, and then left the room.
Seeing Marta’s clearly changed expression, Mountain Eagle looked down at his clothes and then said with a smile, "What’s up? Is there something wrong with me?"
Marta shook her head and said, "No, you look great like this. Come with me, Mi Lu is adjusting the hunting rifle. He said once you’re settled, he’ll take you to see him..."
The Old Gun Club was bustling not like a shooting range, but a gathering...
Marta led Mountain Eagle through the lobby, boasting to everyone about the competition-grade bullets she’d obtained, and then with halting Thai, she declared that she would definitely be the champion that afternoon.
Mountain Eagle wasn’t clear about what kind of competition was being held here, nor was he interested in participating, but he was becoming a bit curious about Marta...
"How long have you been in Thailand?"
Marta led Mountain Eagle through the lobby to the gun management area and unlocked a cabinet to store the bullets and magazines...
"I’ve been here for almost a year now..."
Mountain Eagle continued to ask, "How do you feel about it here?"
Marta shrugged as she led the way, saying, "I think it’s pretty good, way better than worrying every day that someone will barge into my home and shoot me randomly."
As she spoke, Marta came to a door, pushed it open, and said, "I need to save money to buy some good guns, one day I can become a Mercenary too...
I want to make big money, I want to kill all those who hurt my mother..."
Mountain Eagle didn’t know how to respond to that, but just as he was about to change the topic, Mi Lu’s rough voice came through...
"Marta, instead of thinking about revenge, you’d be better off putting more effort into school...
You’re such an idiot that you can’t even handle textbooks, I’m worried someone would trick you into being sold just by going outside..."
Mi Lu’s ’Evil’ words made Marta’s face turn red in an instant, the girl angrily huffed and said, "What’s the use of learning all that stuff?
My mother is a university professor, so what?"
Mi Lu sneered and said, "You know your mother is a university professor?"
"What do you think your life with your mom would be like now if it wasn’t for your damn dad who was just a fool dreaming of being a mercenary?"
"Do you think being a mercenary is all about having a gun?"
"The dumbest mercenary I know is Killing Bee. He joined the army at 18 and became a Thai Red Beret at 20. He’s been thinking about getting gender reassignment surgery for ten years. Do you really think it’s because he hasn’t saved enough money?"
"He didn’t get the surgery because once he does it, his physical abilities will decline, and he’ll die!"
As he spoke, Mi Lu pointed at Mountain Eagle and said to Marta, "You’re only 17, no one will say anything about your wild thoughts, but it’s not good to take your dreams too seriously...
Look at the guy next to you, he has two master’s degrees, started with nothing in Bangkok, and in just two months, he earned money and status that 90% of Thais won’t see in their lifetimes.
Ask him if he would want to be a mercenary if he weren’t forced into it?"
Mountain Eagle, catching Marta’s gaze, decisively shook his head and said, "NO, I don’t even think of myself as a mercenary now, I think being a mercenary has no future..."
As he spoke, Mountain Eagle sized up tall Marta and said with a bit of amusement, "You’re still a minor, I kind of regret giving you bullets..."
After saying that, Mountain Eagle turned to look at Mi Lu, who was sitting at a long table with various tools laid out in front of him, and asked with a smile, "It’s not illegal to give bullets to a minor, right?"
Mi Lu looked disdainfully at the pouting Marta and shook his head, "You’re a cop, you should know better than me..."
Upon hearing this, Marta looked at Mountain Eagle in disbelief, "You’re actually a cop?"
Mountain Eagle spread his hands and nodded, "Volunteer Tourism Police. I’m not exactly in the regular police force, but I suppose I count as a cop."
Upon hearing that, Marta glared at Mi Lu and exclaimed, "That’s not fair, why would Blood Fox rather take a cop as an apprentice instead of teaching me?
We are mercenaries, and cops are our enemies!"
Mi Lu glared back at obviously unruly Marta with disdain and said, "If you could become a Volunteer Police within two months, I’d teach you if Blood Fox won’t...
But if you can’t do that, just go to school properly, I’ve paid two years of international school fees for you, and now you can’t even speak Thai properly...
I think you’re not cut out to be a mercenary, you’re better off acting in movies, comedies, because you look like a joke."
Mountain Eagle thought that Marta would be hurt by Mi Lu’s vicious attack, but the girl seemed not to hear it at all. She turned around, hands behind her back, and blinked her doe-like eyes at him...
"sir, Volunteer Tourism Police are temporary workers, do you think I could enlist? I have service experience, and I can work without salary."
Mountain Eagle glanced at Mi Lu and noticed that the old man had no reaction, then thought for a moment and said, "Our office does need people..."
Seeing the elated Marta who started to jump with joy, he quickly gestured with his hands, "We need people with at least a formal university degree, they must speak at least three languages, apart from the language of the immigrant community, Volunteer Police also need to know Thai and English...
At the same time, a lot of computer and statistical work is needed on the job, and occasionally dealing with difficult tourists, one must also have some skills in psychology.
If it’s a woman, I might also need her to have some accounting skills...
If you meet these requirements, I would certainly be willing to help you become a Volunteer Police..."
Marta looked at Mountain Eagle as if he were an idiot and said, "Do you take me for a fool?
The police chief of Ko Lanta is right outside, he can’t even figure out his own meal expenses..."
Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle waved his hand and replied, "Whether you’re a fool or not, if the police chief got his meal expenses right, the businessmen in Kamui would lose sleep...
It’s called the harmonious blend of the police and community, a sign of great wisdom!"
Marta: "Huh???"
