Chapter 339 - 339 337 The Arrogant Colleague
339: Chapter 337: The Arrogant Colleague 339: Chapter 337: The Arrogant Colleague With the potential arrival of people from the oil company and the embassy the next day, at dawn, Gao Yang and Li Jinfang bid farewell to Jiang Yun and his group.
Amid the farewells of all the oil workers, they left the camp.
When Gao Yang saw Destin again, Destin had just finished breakfast.
Seeing Gao Yang return, Destin raised his coffee cup in greeting and smiled, “Back so soon?
How did it feel to play the hero this time?”
Exhausted and sleepy, Gao Yang took off the gun from his body, leaned it against the dining table, then sat down opposite Destin and beamed, “Fantastic, the rewards greatly exceeded my expectations.”
Li Jinfang too, with a smile brimming on his face, chimed in, “Couldn’t be better.”
Putting down his coffee cup, Destin leaned back in his chair and said contentedly, “Seems like you’re both pleased.
Now, go get your breakfast.
While you’re eating, I have some good news to tell you.”
Gao Yang and Li Jinfang were not hungry, as they had shared a very sumptuous, and authentically Huaxia, meal at the Huaxia people’s camp.
So, Gao Yang waved his hand and said, “Let’s skip breakfast; we’ve just eaten.
You can give us the good news and then let me go to sleep with a good mood.”
“The good news is that the riots have mostly settled down.
The South Sudan official government finally hasn’t lost control of the military, so the fight between the Dingka and Nuer people probably won’t break out, at least not for now.
Who cares about the future?
As long as it’s not happening now, it’s fine.
Also, Kolm just found a new security team.
If things move quickly, the new security team will arrive by noon, so we can leave.”
After Destin finished delivering his good news, Gao Yang said, quite surprised, “That fast?
The South Sudan official government managed to control the situation so quickly?”
Destin spread his hands nonchalantly, “It’s rare indeed, but it’s good news, isn’t it?
The tribal wars can’t start, the situation is under control, and the new security team will soon be here.
So, we can take the same plane that’s bringing the security team and leave.”
Gao Yang laughed heartily, “Indeed, that is good news.
I just happen to need to leave for a bit.
If I can leave today, then that’s perfect.
Do you know who the incoming security personnel are?
Are they from a defense company or mercenaries?
Or just some free mercenaries?
Where did Kolm find them?”
Destin shrugged, “Unclear; it seems they’re some friends of Kolm’s from Eastern Europe, coming directly from Juba.
You know Kolm is in charge of everything here; he has already decided to hire those Eastern Europeans.
Kolm’s not up yet, but you can ask him for details after you see him.”
Gao Yang shook his head, “Never mind, as long as the new security is capable, that’s enough.
Alright, continue enjoying your coffee.
I’m going to get some sleep.”
Destin waved his hand, “Sweet dreams, I’ll wake you up for lunch.”
After leaving Destin in the dining room, after only a few steps, Li Jinfang smiled and said, “Brother Yang, there’s nothing much going on these days, and since we’re leaving today, you can go ahead.
I’d like to stay here a little longer and meet with the captain a few more times.”
Gao Yang had already discussed the next plan with Jiang Yun and his team.
Taking advantage of the lull, Gao Yang planned to visit the United States to meet with Little Donnie and then return to South Sudan with Glolov and his mates to resolve Jiang Yun’s matters and search for the Akuri tribe.
So, during this time, Li Jinfang had nothing to do and it didn’t matter if he stayed.
Gao Yang waved his hand, “Okay, I’ll let Kolm know; you staying could help strengthen the guard duty.”
After a brief chat with Li Jinfang, Gao Yang returned to his room, took a quick shower, then went to sleep soundly.
By noon, without needing Destin to call him, Gao Yang got up on his own.
Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, he reluctantly put on his stinky combat uniform, meticulously checked his weapons and ammunition, and donned his bulletproof vest and helmet before stepping out of his room.
The situation was said to be under control, but it was still not guaranteed to be completely peaceful.
The camp could still be attacked at any moment.
As one of the main fighting forces, Gao naturally couldn’t let his guard down.
If combat was required and he had to run back to his room to get his gear, it wouldn’t just be an embarrassment; it would be irresponsible to his own life.
Just as Gao Yang stepped out of his room, Li Jinfang also emerged, all geared up.
They greeted each other and walked together toward the dining hall.
At noon, with the weather being extremely hot, Gao Yang and Li Jinfang, fully armed, quickly found themselves drenched in sweat.
Hastening their steps, they arrived at the entrance of the restaurant just in time to see Destin and his group of four also approaching.
Destin and his team were also fully armed, and had been on outdoor sentry duty, as the local security could not be trusted.
To avoid sudden attacks, they had to stand guard themselves.
The sweltering heat made the four of them unbearably hot.
Upon seeing Destin, Gao Yang waved his hand and shouted, “Guys, good job.
Toad and I will take over the look out this afternoon, so you all can take a break.”
Wiping sweat from his brow, Destin replied, “This damned heat could kill a man.
But the good news is that the relief security team is about to arrive.
Kolm told me their plane is almost here; we can soon head back to the comfort of our yacht, guys.”
As Gao Yang and his companions walked side by side into the restaurant, they were greeted at the door by Kolm.
Upon seeing Li Jinfang, Kolm teased, “Lee, I heard you had a great time when you got back this morning.
Tell me, did you run into some Huaxia beauties?
Hmm?
By the look on your face, I bet you did, buddy.”
Li Jinfang waved his hand, still smiling, and said, “How could there be any beauties in this godforsaken place?
I just ran into an old friend I hadn’t seen in years.”
Kolm looked sorrowful and shrugged.
“What a pity.
I was determined to visit the Huaxia camp more often to bond if there were any beauties there.
Now my only hope is dashed.
For a handsome guy who is popular with the ladies, this truly is a hellish place.
Well, I’d better go and wait for our new security team.
I just got a call; they’ll be here any minute.
God, you’re about to leave this awful place, and here I am, stuck carrying on.
It’s just so sad.”
Destin, surprised, said, “So soon?
I thought it would be good if they arrived by evening.
Does that mean we can leave after lunch?”
Kolm, with a helpless expression, pointed at Gao Yang and said, “If you’re really eager to leave, you have him to thank.”
Looking perplexed, Gao Yang pointed at his own nose and asked, “Thank me?
Why?”
Kolm sighed and explained, “You can’t stay here indefinitely, and our security does need to rotate out.
If I were to hire new guards, it would take me a while to vet them.
But you told my boss you found two shotguns, and he’s desperate to get his hands on them.
So he rushed me to find new security so you guys could get out of here.
That’s why I hired the new guards last night, without knowing anything about them, and they’re about to arrive.”
Gao Yang replied with resignation, “Is that really necessary?
If Morgan is so eager for his gift, why not just have someone deliver it?”
Kolm pursed his lips and said, “I thought so too, but Morgan told me that if he weren’t so tied up, he’d come get his gift himself.
Buddy, what can I do, he’s my boss.
So I’ll do as Morgan says.
He asked me to tell you that if you go to the United States, take good care of his shotgun and personally hand it over to him.
If you don’t go to the States, then Morgan will come to you.
As for where you’ll meet, it’s up to you guys to contact each other and decide.”
After finishing, Kolm stretched out his hand and said, “Guys, the plane will be here any minute, let’s skip lunch.
Once you’ve finished eating, you can start packing and get ready to leave this godforsaken place.”
The restaurant, which could accommodate forty or fifty people, was almost full.
Most were armed guards about to lose their jobs.
Gao Yang and his group split between two tables, got their lunch, and began to eat and chat.
They were less than halfway through their meal when Kolm’s walkie-talkie buzzed with the news that the plane had arrived.
Kolm stood up hurriedly and said, “Keep eating, I’ll go welcome our new guests.”
Gao Yang and the others didn’t mind and continued eating.
It wasn’t long before they heard a loud voice exclaim, “Your security is terrible.
I didn’t see a single guard walking over from the runway.
Aren’t you afraid of an attack?
Now that we’re here, your security will improve.”
Then Kolm’s voice also rang out, “Our guards are having lunch; this is the restaurant.
Your lunch is ready; please come in, and we can talk over the meal.”
“I hope your food isn’t too bad, buddy.
We’re not like those n*ggers; don’t try to fool us with pig slop.
It won’t be okay if the meals don’t satisfy us.”
As he spoke, a cocky, proud-looking white strongman walked into the restaurant with Kolm.
Upon seeing the restaurant full of people, the strongman looked around haughtily, his disdainful gaze sweeping over everyone.
However, when his eyes met those of Gao Yang and his company, who were looking up at him, he paused slightly.
