Chapter 1490 The Dangers Of Being Rich
"Commander Jin." Nie waved at him as he was seen at the Inn Paradiso right after Jin had finished his breakfast.
"Nie. Lant told you that I am here?"
"Yea. And I took the time to meet with Stella as well. She is an old friend of ours too."
"Don't you need to go to work?"
"That gold bar you gave me was more than enough for me to take urgent leave."
"See, that is what I meant when I said money makes the world goes round," Jin said through the Tactical System, especially directed to Yinn. And that was indeed true as the Grey Bear Squad had been reserved one of the best seats within the Inn's dining area on the 20th floor.
They had the entire view of the town as well as being able to take the sights of the distant mountain. Not to mention, they have fresh food being served right from the kitchen with requests being taken personally by Stella. All the food was served while the other guests were wondering why the Squad was being taken care of personally by the Inn's Owner.
The Bellboy even volunteered to take their equipment for maintenance which was complimentary based on Jin's current rank and they did not have to waste any time going to the armoury to get the weapons checked.
Jin even asked if the bellboy was able to get them to restock some items like ammunition and grenades which Stella overheard and told them that it was not a problem at all. She even said that she could handle the sales of the extra firearms which Jin had managed to pick up fighting against the rebels. (Diaz was complaining a little the night that she had to carry all of them but given the recent upgrade, the complaint was more like rumblings)
Everything was done for them just because Jin had given them a gold bar or two and they were elated to be of service to the Grey Bear Squad.
"I get what you mean now." Yinn was hesitant to acknowledge it since earning those gold bars was not easy but if it provided such time saving comforts, she could see why Jin was acting this way when in a society, everyone was selfish about their wealth.
"Where is he staying at the moment?" Jin asked and Nie asked whether if he had seen the distant mountain from the inn's dining area.
"He stayed at the bottom of Mount Sunn but if I am not mistaken his workshop is on the higher grounds," Nie replied as he loosen his jacket and pointed at his gun, indirectly Jin that he had to be armed for the trip.
It was then the bellboy just came back from the armoury and waved at Jin. "Well, looks like our equipment is here. Suit up Grey Bears. We are going for a hike."
"I will get my SUV out at the front," Nie said while Jin and the others were being directed to a holding area where they could arm themselves.
"You mind helping me bring all these back to my room later?"
"No problem, Sir Jin. It will be my pleasure." The bellboy said and Jin smiled, thanking him for his services. And as the bellboy waited outside, Yinn queried if it would be wise to bring duffel bags of gold bars to the mountains.
"What if it is a trap?" She asked with concern that all this kindness by these people might have an agenda.f𝙧ee𝙬ℯ𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝒆𝘭. c𝒐𝓂
"Then I would pose the same question back again. What makes you think that this Inn is safe from thieves and robbers?" Jin asked as he picked up the P90 submachine gun which he felt it was a good fit for him since the last encounter against the rebels.
"All the inns had been insured so any losses we incurred would be compensated also, stealing from an Inn is a crime punishable by death," Yinn replied, indicating that it is clearly safer to put the gold bars at the Inn until they confirmed that Old Fammet was someone of the real deal.
"Then again, we just got out of the police station and considering how badly we were treated, do you think they will entertain us…especially when I had also punched the daylights out of that police supervisor?"
"You what?" the Grey Bears asked simultaneously.
"What? He made all of us miserable, I figured I gave him a good proper sucker punch for all that shit we have gone through. Besides, I had permission from the Archduke." Jin was wondering why he was being treated as a suspect.
"Well, he did at least deserve a slap." Tellie who was considered the most 'neutral' person in the squad accepted Jin's explanation and made Yinn sigh in agreement.
"It's alright. We bring those gold bars with us and if it is a trap, then we would make do with the situation. Besides, you are forgetting how capable your commander can be." Jin said it without reserve and Yinn merely saluted him back with a 'Sir' knowing that what he said was not exactly wrong, especially after what he had done for the squad.
"But in case this is a trap, I suggest we put tracking tags into our duffel bags as well as on ourselves," Jin said as he opened one of the boxes, showing enamel pins with colourful cute bears on them. It seemed like Jin had already thought one step ahead of them until they picked up the pins and realised that they were normal metal pins.
pǎпdǎ Й?νê1,сòМ "Aren't they just purely accessories? What use can these do? Identify that I am a bear loving member of the society?" Diaz's sarcasm was through the roof.
"Most tracking tags can be deactivated by jamming signals so I decided to use something a little outside of this world," Jin said as he poured his Maqi into the metal enamel pins making them condensed enough to stay within the pins for at least a week.
And thereafter signal became apparent within the tactical system.
