Chapter 19 Frank Custer
In the happy atmosphere, a down-and-out middle-aged man was always out of tune with the entire restaurant atmosphere.
When Alvin was holding Ginny to make her happy, the middle-aged man leaned over, put his elbows on the bar, facing Alvin, and looked at the lively crowd a little lonely.
"Bring me a glass of whiskey."
The man's eyes Alvin is very familiar. JJ's eyes were his when he first came. It's not murderous, but it's very numb. Everyone looks like a corpse, more like a machine than a living person, and he is injured. Yes, there is a strong smell of disinfectant and blood on the body.
Alvin looked at him, in this happy atmosphere, there is no unpleasant mention, only beer is free today. He took a glass and poured him a glass of whiskey. pushed in front of him. With a smile, "I hope you have a good night."
The man shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Can we chat?"
"About what?" Alvin asked curiously.
The man sighed and said hesitantly, "About that child." As he spoke, his eyes pointed to the ceiling.
Alvin was a little confused, and with a bit of alertness, he said coldly, "Who? Nick? Who are you?"
The man drank the whisky in the glass, covered his face in pain, and said, "Who am I? I'm a bad husband, an irresponsible father, and a fool who doesn't know what is the most important thing in life."
Alvin looked at the man thoughtfully, and called Jessica over to take care of Ginny, "Ginny, play with Sister Jessica for a while, okay? Dad has something to do."
Jessica ran over, a flush of excitement on her face. But found that the atmosphere seemed a bit wrong. Seeing the downcast man, Jessica said, "It's you, you're here again."
After speaking, Jessica turned to Alvin and said, "He has been here for several days, and I wanted to tell you this afternoon. He seems to have something to do."
Alvin nodded to show he understood, and handed Ginny to Jessica: "Jessica, take my princess upstairs and play for a while. I have something to do here."
She kissed Ginny on the cheek and watched Jessica take Ginny upstairs.
"Let me guess, are you Nick's father who only exists on the phone?" Alvin asked sharply, ignoring the man's pain.
The man didn't care about Alvin's tone and said in a low voice, "Yes, I am the irresponsible father."
Saying that, the man pushed the glass to Alvin, "Please bring me a glass."
Alvin poured him another full glass of whiskey and watched him drink it all without speaking. Alvin knew that the man had a lot to say, and he just had to be a good listener.
"I was the best special forces commander in this country! I died for this country! I even gave up my family life!
I didn't even see it for myself when Nick was born! "The man pushed the glass to Alvin at the second time.
Alvin could feel the anger in the man's tone, some for himself and some for the country. He needs a little wine and a good listener. Pushed a whole bottle of whiskey to the man, indicating that he was listening.
The man picked up the bottle and took a sip, "I was born and died for this country, but my wife and son were bombed, my wife died, and my son lost his left leg.
Those damn politicians hid the bad news from me and put me on a one-year mission. Those sons of bitches just treat me like a machine and think our lives, our families, are worthless!
Those murderers, the sons of the Italian mafia, were on the loose until I found them and stuffed them in the meat grinder. "
Alvin swallowed his saliva. He knew about it. The Italian mafia "Cesare" family in the port area, a family of more than 40 people, were all killed, stuffed into a meat grinder, and ground into meat sauce , A large family finally loaded two coffins and was buried in a hurry.
As a result, a guy came and told him that I did it! It's a little too exciting!
There are no good people in the Cesare family, it is recognized! But the motherfucker even killed the cat and the dog, this motherfucker is a living hell!
The man ignored Alvin's slightly changed face and took a sip of wine, "What hurts me the most is that my once best comrade in arms also tried to hide the truth of the matter and tried to prevent me from taking revenge. Just tell me. Nick is still alive and gave me the address here."
Alvin complained in his heart, even I dare not tell you about your temperament! 46 people in the "Cesare" family, bodyguards, subordinates, and 16 people who were fucking guests were all killed. A small war can't kill so many people!
"I've been here for a few days now, thank you! Thank you! Not only because you saved Nick's life, but now that Nick is fine, I never thought Nick was like this." The man's eyes lit up.
"Although you're missing a leg, you're cheerful, sunny, and don't have any inferiority complex. I don't know how you did it, but thanks, man!"
Alvin waved his hand, poured himself a glass of whiskey, took a sip, and said, "Has your trouble been resolved? I mean trouble outside the Cesare family.
You know I'm my family when Nick is, and you, just the old phone dad, you only exist in Nick's fantasy.
If you're still in trouble, I think I'll stop you from approaching Nick, you must have investigated me, and you should know that I have the power. "
The man glanced at Alvin, not angry because of Alvin's threatening tone, but solemnly gave him a military salute, "I won't thank you for Nick, I can see that you get along like a family. I Thank you for myself, you saved me from the pain of hell, and you saved the last ray of light in my life."
Speaking of which, the man raised the bottle and touched Alvin, then took another gulp. "No more trouble, remember the former comrade-in-arms I said, I made a deal with him, instead of going to trouble with those son-in-law politicians, he will solve all my current troubles for me."
Alvin, relieved, he is actually very contradictory. Even if this guy is full of trouble, can he really stop Alvin when he wants to see Nick?
He knew how much Nick longed for his father, who was a hero to him.
Although Alvin mostly replaced his father's role, he was not Nick's real father.
If this guy didn't show up, maybe Nick would have forgotten about it after a while, but it's only been a year.
I hate to admit it, but this guy is an amazing guy.
If he was in China, he would be a model for the military, one of the top ten model workers. Although Alvin doesn't quite agree, the kind of behavior that puts aside the family and serves the country. But when such a person appears in front of you, you have to give him a thumbs up and say, "Thank you!"
Alvin raised his glass to indicate, "Can you take the liberty to ask, who is your comrade-in-arms? It is possible to have so much energy. It's a big deal to die so many people."
The man picked up the bottle and touched Alvin, "Nick Fury, the current director of SHIELD."
An image of an ugly black one-eyed dragon instantly appeared in Alvin's mind. Alvin took a sip of wine and asked, "Then your name is~"
The man looked at Alvin, "Frank" said and reached out and shook Alvin, and solemnly introduced himself: "I'm Frank Custer."
