Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 350 Unexpected Visitor
The mountain eagle played on the sea until 4pm before returning to Ao Nang Beach...

When the speedboat stopped at the beach, Shanying saw at a glance a team of elite 191st Brigade trainees, led by two SEAL Team Six members, doing push-ups in the courtyard of their own office.

Several white men and local lawyers, already drenched in sweat, stood at the gate of the courtyard, continuously making complaints to several local government officials in Krabi.

During this period, Shanying was a super celebrity in Krabi. Before he spent the 8000 million US dollars in his hand, let alone saying that he did not do anything excessive, even if he did something out of line, the local officials had to stand on his side for the sake of the money.

The impoverished Krabi government has been troubled by funding issues for many years. In their eyes, Shanying, the guy who has brought real benefits to Krabi, is their real one.

The six municipal infrastructure projects that have been approved have restarted Krabi’s stagnant municipal construction work.

There are not only political achievements here, but also a lot of profits.

Even if you, Philip Royce, are a wealthy man, the worst that can happen when you come to Krabi is that you stay in a more expensive hotel and pay more for prostitutes. What can you bring to Krabi?
So no matter how much the lawyers talked, the local officials in Krabi remained unmoved.

It is a foregone conclusion that your client assaulted a police officer. Detention is a light punishment. The Thai police will prosecute him based on the facts...

Foreigners can also be detained in Thai prisons!
As for your claim that detainees were mistreated, we did not see any of that.

And you can't regard this as abuse just because we don't have air conditioning. The guys in SEAL Team Six don't have air conditioning either, but they didn't say a word.

The people of Krabi are not stingy in supporting the mountain eagle...

Because Shanying not only has a huge amount of money, but is also a key figure in the counter-cyclical growth of Krabi's tourism industry.

He personally brought tourists to Krabi, and used insurance money and compensation from cruise companies to create a pool of funds for tourist consumption.

Those island tourists who received double compensation were so generous!

Moreover, during the meetings over the past ten days, Shanying personally developed a tourist portrait for Krabi, locking the core tourists in the range of young people and families below the middle class.

Foreign wealthy families have never been the customers that Krabi needs to pay attention to...

Those cunning local politicians, just like in a TV drama, took the initiative to bring in television media, and then the heads of various police departments took turns to take the stage, holding their necks high and withstanding the pressure from the opposing barrister. Occasionally, those who are more skilled in acting would even give an impassioned speech in front of the camera.

They never mentioned that they did not dare to break into the office guarded by the seals, but kept repeating what happened in the morning and then listed the crimes committed by Philip Royce...

Anyway, they just won’t let us go!
This approach not only did not cause concern among tourists, but instead resonated with some young people.

What happened in the morning had already spread, and no one with normal values could accept Philip Royce's behavior.

The vast majority of people in the world follow simple justice in their hearts, and believe that if you make a mistake, you should be punished.

Allowing those so-called lawyers to bail him out is a smear on the image of the police!

As for whether this practice violates procedural justice? Even the Krabi Police Department doesn't care, so who would care about ordinary people?
For the Mountain Eagles, this is a stress test of their comfort zone...

He left the phone to Philip Royce, just to see which people he could mobilize, and then judge by the reactions of the local people in Krabi whether the situation here developed as he imagined, and by the way, judge which local people are worth his effort to interact with and which people should be kept away.

The actual result was much better than he imagined!
When it comes to the skill of arguing, Thais have inherited the spirit of British civil servants. Although they lack a bit of gentlemanliness, they make up for this deficiency with the laziness that is unique to Thais.

After they finished speaking in front of the media, they started to act dumb, make jokes, and act crazy...

When Shanying came ashore, someone saw him. Then a few interesting guys waved from a distance to tell him not to go over. They also organized a few people to block the lawyers' sight and cover Shanying's escape from the scene.

Such kindness cannot be refused!

Shanying, leaning on his crutches, deliberately acted stealthily and led everyone back to Sunset Mountain.

The Chakdi family also followed along…

Sunset Mountain was quite shocking to the Chakdi family, not because the sunset there was absolutely beautiful, but because the infrastructure in this remote place was actually better than that of the village where they lived.

There is electricity and internet access, a water tower and water filtration system, and a complete sewage system.

Chakdi's wife, Shanying prefers to call her 'Chasao'. This hardworking woman has been busy since the moment she arrived at Sunset Mountain...

Mr. Poincare, who was committed to improving the team for Mountain Eagle, instantly regarded her as a life-saving straw.

A bunch of people who have no idea about housework gathered in a cafe with a terrible view, and the result was that the cafe became a mess.

Mr. Poincare is the most organized man Shanying has ever seen, but his housekeeping skills cannot support him to take care of two sloppy Americans, two dirty Russians who are busy building houses every day, and a great white shark who looks clean and elegant every day, but actually only buys disposable underwear...

He could only regard the bar counter of the cafe as his territory and refuse others from approaching.

In his eyes, Sasiri, who temporarily only had one hand that could move, was ten times better than those sloppy guys.

When Mrs. Cha stepped into the cafe and couldn't help picking up the broom, Mr. Poincare offered her a generous salary which she thought was "astronomical".

Ten thousand baht a month, the job is to keep the cafe and several rooms upstairs clean and tidy every day. If you can cook, you can get an extra 5,000 baht.

This salary is three times that of her husband Chakdi!
Chakdi didn't know what was going on, but in just two days, his family had suddenly entered the middle class.

The family owns a house and a boat, both husband and wife have stable jobs, and he can also take on private work during his free time to supplement the family income.

Although Chakdi complained that his wife's salary was higher than his, he was happy to see his wife's happy smile and his two children jumping and dancing happily when they learned that they could come to play often...

He thought this was fine.

Shanying didn't mind Mr. Poincare's self-willed behavior at all. Instead, he was happy for the family.

Seeing Chakdi walking around the cafe, then sitting there awkwardly, not daring to move, Shanying smiled and took a few bottles of cold beer to distribute, then handed one to him...

"Just treat this place as your own home. If you're nervous, it will make others feel uncomfortable and think you're someone who needs to be taken care of."

Chakdi took the beer a little nervously, held the bottle with both hands and clinked it with Mountain Eagle, then took a sip.

After drinking, Chakdi wiped his mouth a little uncomfortably and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know what I should do. I have never been a guest in someone's home."

After hearing this, Shanying asked curiously, "How have you been living all these years?"

Chakdi was silent for a few seconds, and glanced at his wife who was busy working, and the two children who were chasing two fat dogs around. He thought for a moment and said, "I'll be here to watch over them..." Shanying frowned and said, "Isn't it hard?"

Chakdi was stunned for a moment and said, “Bitter?
Apart from the time when I was injured, I really didn't feel it was that hard at other times.

I can eat well, wear warm clothes, there is no cold winter, I can see a doctor for free, and I can make a lot of money...

I don’t find it bitter.”

Shanying gave a thumbs up in admiration and said with a smile: "It's my problem. Everyone has different experiences and naturally has different ideas. This makes my sympathy a little ridiculous.

But sympathy is sympathy, but the salary cannot be increased..."

Chakdi listened and said indifferently: "I know what that speedboat does every day...

Escort cruise ships back and forth, and stay at strategic locations ready to rescue fishing boats and speedboats that are in trouble.

This job is so easy. All I have to do is bring a fishing rod and a harpoon, and I can catch some seafood to supplement my family income.

On weekends I can also drive my own boat and take people out to sea. That’s enough, really enough!

I never dreamed that this day would come.”

When Shanying saw Chakdi's attitude, he smiled and nodded and said, "It's best if you think this way. I've always been a little worried that a powerful guy like you would want more."

Chakdi shook his head decisively and said, "I don't need it. Fishing and boating are what I am best at. I can use these two skills to make money to support my family. I won't consider doing anything else."

Chakdi touched his waist and said bitterly, “Even if I want to do it, my waist won’t let me do it.

I always felt that this was a revelation from God to me. It took away what I was best at and made up for it with family.

That's fair! "

After hearing this, Shanying said in admiration: "I rarely see someone who can be as open-minded as you...

But I still have to ask, to what extent can your waist support you?
As you have seen today, volunteer tourism police occasionally have to perform some law enforcement work.

I need to know the limits of your abilities so that I can avoid making mistakes when assigning tasks.”

Shanying spread his hands and looked at Chakdi, saying, "To put it bluntly, I want to know how many of the skills you learned in the 11th Legion do you still retain?

Putting aside the back injury, how much ability do you still have?

Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious. Since your back injury is so serious, why do you still want to be a fisherman? It's a very strenuous job."

Chakdi listened, nodded slightly and said: "The doctor said that my lumbar spine can't bear too much pressure, so I never cast a net to catch fish like other fishermen because I can't pull it.

All I can do is fish, trap, and dive.

This was taught to me by a good fisherman in the village. He said that in the past, the older fishermen relied on these skills to make a living.

I can just do that!"

Chakdi looked at Shanying, who was still somewhat curious, and said, "Boss, you are guessing how I killed those 25 snakehead accomplices, right?"

Shanying spread his hands and said, "It's hard for me not to be curious. I've seen many special forces, but being able to kill 25 people in a small jungle...

You don’t even have a gun, that’s pretty impressive!”

Chakdi didn’t seem to understand what Shanying meant. He frowned and said, “As long as we explore the route and set traps in advance, what’s the point of having more people than the enemy?
A group of people who have not received military training would have no chance of survival if they stepped into a jungle that had been prepared in advance.

Camouflage, lurking, setting traps, surprise attacks, close combat, these should be compulsory courses for special forces, and as long as you prepare in advance, it doesn’t take too much effort..."

Shanying was stunned by Chakdi's "honesty". What this guy meant by "not needing to spend too much effort" was probably not enough if it was the previous 191st Brigade. Even if they tried their best, they still couldn't keep all the snakeheads.

This guy is a strong man, but unfortunately life has worn away his edges. Otherwise, even if his waist is not good, his ability against ordinary people would be overwhelming.

Today, Chakdi helped knock down two strong men, which ignited a trace of curiosity in Mountain Eagle, but it was completely extinguished now.

However, he was even more certain that he had made the right choice. A silent and steady fisherman could fill the gap in the office and provide limited combat support...

that's enough!
While Shanying was chatting with Chakdi, a small helicopter flew from the sea to Sunset Mountain in the afterglow of the sunset...

After circling the top of the mountain twice, the helicopter slowly landed on the open space on the top of the mountain.

Shanying returned to his home with a frown, and watched Eddie jump down from the co-pilot seat of the helicopter, and then helped an injured guy out of the plane from the cabin...

He leaned forward and lent a hand, supporting the injured guy while shouting loudly: "What's going on?"

Eddie waved his hand, signaling the helicopter pilot to go first...

After the helicopter left, Eddie said with a somewhat grim expression: "We received intelligence that someone wanted to attack Anna, but when we went there, we found that it was a trap..."

Eddie pushed open the door of Mountain Eagle's house, helped the injured guy sit on the sofa, and introduced him to Mountain Eagle: "Let me introduce you, this is 'Camel', the second fastest shooter of Arctic Fox."

Camel is a middle-aged white man in his fifties. You can tell he is an American from the baseball cap he wears with the logo of the Dallas Cowboys, the NFL team.

Camel sat on the sofa, grinned at the eagle, and said, "Hello, I am Camel...

Blood Fox told me about you!"

Shanying looked at the bloody gauze wrapped around Luotuo's arm. He frowned and said, "Why don't you go to the hospital?"

Eddie shook his head and said, “It’s too late, those people’s actions were frustrated, and the second step is to come to you.

We have to warn you, Anna's safety is guaranteed, but you are not!"
