Chapter 562 The Culture of the Drinking


    Everyone was stunned when they saw Leo''s upper body.


    Leo''s body was covered in wounds and bullet holes from stab wounds.


    In addition to this, there are a number of stitched wounds.


    It was not difficult to imagine that it was split hard by a single sh.


    This was followed by stitches and sutures.


    Dense, all over the body.


    Not to mention those men, even Great General Nics, who was in a high position, was shocked.


    "Where did theye from?"


    Nics asked with a tremor in his voice.


    Leo smiled faintly, "During the war."


    Pointing to a bullet wound in his chest very close to his heart, he said, "This wound was closest to the


    heart and a bullet went through here, luckily I am lucky and survived."


    Leo smiled.


    "What about this?"


    One of the guards asked, pointing to the massive burn marks on Leo''s back.


    "This one? To save a man, when the enemy had the geographical advantage and set a huge sea of


    fire, and I ran to save themander, when the flesh was burnt."


    Leo said with a smile.


    "Well, what about this?"


    Another guard asked as his eyes fell on a knife wound.


    "It was a strong man from the other side who joined the battlefield, a sword king, who shed me, and


    I broke his sword and killed him."


    "This is ......"


    For a long time afterwards, Leo patiently exined to the guards where the wounds on their bodies


    came from.


    Even General Nics was fascinated to hear it, as if he was there.


    Incredible.


    It was incredible.


    It was amazing how many bruises Leo had on his body.


    It was just full of glory!


    Nics was also eager to hear Leo continue, but he reacted that he was here to give Leo a test, not to


    hear a story!


    So, Nics hastily interrupted, "Alright, alright, let''s do the test first, we''ll talk after the test is done!"


    It was then that the crowd fell into a trance.


    However, their attitude towards Leo had taken a diametrically opposed turn.


    Without the fear and caution of before, there was a look of awe and respect in their eyes.


    "Sir, please step into the middle of the apparatus."


    A guard made a gesture of invitation and said to Leo.


    Leo nodded and cooperated, standing in front of the instrument.


    A strong light shone through, an infrared ray, shining on every part of Leo''s body.


    And in front of theputer screen in front of Nics, a scan of Leo''s body was quickly disyed.


    Once they read the contents, Nics and the others were startled and in a cold sweat.


    Several shrapnel and des were actually hidden in Leo''s body.


    These shrapnel des were stuck in Leo''s body and could not be surgically removed at all.


    There were even a few that were so close to vital organs like the heart and lungs that a slight deflection


    would have been just a fatal wound!


    If an ordinary person had received these wounds, not to mention so many des and shrapnel, a


    random one would cause to death.


    How did Leo survive until now?

    "Sir, you cane down now."


    Returning to his senses, Nics''s voice was horrified beyond belief and his forehead was in a cold


    sweat.


    "Any luck finding out why the siren went off?"


    Leo asked with a smile.


    "Yes, it was shrapnel, des and other metal substances that set off the rm."


    Nics''s gaze became reverent as he suddenly bent down and bowed ny degrees to Leo.


    "Sorry, sir, you''re not a danger, you''re a hero of Pompeii! We apologise to you!"


    Behind Nics, all the guards stood in awe and bowed to Leo in unison.


    The scene was spectacr at one point.


    Leo shook his head with a smile, "What is this for? You didn''t do anything wrong either, why do you


    need to apologize?"


    "Because, because you are a warrior, a hero, who has participated in numerous battles, and whose


    wounds are the best proof of the supreme glory!"


    Nics''s eyes were red and his voice was surprisingly tinged with a hint of tears.


    Everyone else was also full of guilt.


    What set off the rm was the shrapnel and des hidden inside Leo''s body, yet they treated him as a


    danger.


    They were doing it wrong!


    "Get up."


    Leo''s smile was strong: "I''m just an ordinary person now, besides, you guys are right to do this, no one


    can make specials when theye, understand?"


    "Understood!"


    Nics led the way, and all of them roared in unison.


    Leo intended to get out of here.


    Nics suddenly turned to Leo''s back, "May I have your name, please?"


    Instead of turning around, Leo waved his hand.


    "I am just an ordinary man, no need to know my name."


    Leo''s voice came through.


    "But remember your pride, every soldier is a good one!"


    "YES!!!"


    Nics roared loudly.


    Leo''s words were not heavy, but they held a special magic that shook them to their core.


    "Salute!"


    Nics shouted.


    At Leo''s back, all of them gave a military salute, which they did not lower for a long time.


    Therge red g fluttered in the wind and the sun shone down, gilding the faces of all.


    ......


    Ying Lie Mountain Resort, Lydia and the others waited for a long time, but Leo did not return.


    Maisy smiled, "We don''t need to wait, he must have been arrested as a dangerous person, let''s eat


    first."


    Karl nodded, "Then let''s eat first, don’t wait for him alone."


    Karl had already called for the food to be served.


    Although Lydia''s heart was thick with anger, there was nothing she could do about it, always looking


    out the door.


    In time, even she became desperate.


    Wouldn’t Leoe back?


    "Who did you say was arrested as dangerous?"


    Abruptly, a man''s faint voice came from outside the door.


    At once, everyone was startled and turned around subconsciously.


    Only to see Leo standing in the doorway intact, looking at them indifferently.


    "Leo?"


    Maisy''s eyes were shocked beyond belief as she eximed, "How did you get back so soon? Aren''t


    you a dangerous person?"


    Karl was also surprised.


    But he didn''t show it.


    "Are you surprised that I''m back?"


    Leo knew what Maisy was like and asked with a cold smile.


    Maisy still didn''t believe it and pinched herself hard.


    Feeling the pain, she was filled with disbelief.


    Leo was really back.


    He had just been taken away for just half an hour.


    What could be done in half an hour?


    Catching a thief and taking a statement took at least two or three hours.


    Simply incredible.


    "How did you get out? You didn''t sneak out, did you?"


    Maisy spected.


    Just now she had clearly heard the rms going off throughout Ying Lie Mountain Resort, because Leo


    had made them.


    With such a big show, Leo would definitely be taken away as a dangerous person!


    Leoughed lightly, "I have let you down, they originally treated me as a dangerous person, but then


    they heard that I had been a soldier before and let me go again."


    Leo did not say anything about the shrapnel and des in his body triggering the rm, after all, it was


    too appalling.


    So that was it!


    The crowd immediately understood.


    It was just still a bit uncanny.


    Although those who had been soldiers were given a little privilege by the state to a greater or lesser


    extent.


    But it was not that dramatic!


    Once they heard that they had been in the army before, they let the man go.


    Unless formerly a big man in the army.


    But was Leo?


    Maisy''s expression was somewhat disdainful.


    He didn''t look like a big shot at first nce.


    "Honey!"


    With an excited shout, Lydia directly hugged Leo in excitement.


    Caroline, Marie were also very excited.


    After all, they didn''t think they would see Leo for years toe.


    "Dad, Mom, I''ve got you guys worried."


    Leo smiled at William and Summer, not forgetting to nod to Aurora as a greeting.


    His mother-inw was satisfied and returned the smile without saying anything.


    "Since you are all right, take your seats, for today''s feast is mainly for you."


    Karl greeted Leo and came over to sit down.


    With so many people present, Karl could not show his malice directly.


    Although Karl and Leo were considered enemies, both of them had the right starting point and


    sometimes understand and appreciate each other.


    In the absence of words, the two men reached a kind of reconciliation ---- that involved putting aside


    their hatred, however great, and pretending to be son-inw and father-inw when they were in a


    crowd.


    The food was exquisite, but everyone''s focus was on the wine.


    Karl deliberately used the alcohol sent by Lydia and ordered Maisy to pour a ss for each of them.


    First, Lydia and Leo.


    Then came William, Caroline, and Summer.


    This was followed by Aurora.


    Last but not least was Maisy.


    This order of pouring the wine already reflected Karl''s sincerity in trying to apologise.


    But Maisy was upset.


    Her husband was the head of the Henderson family, but he had been taken such a low stance.


    Angry as she was, Maisy did as she was told.


    With a smile on his face, she said, "We''re all family, let''s not be formal."


    This was said to William, Caroline and Summer, who were not of her status.


    It meant to say that although this banquet was Karl''s party, don''t go too far.


    Both William and Caroline were also ttered and said, "It''s okay, we can pour our own wine."


    "I don''t know how well you guys can drink, so just pour it yourself."


    Maisy said with a smile, really intending not to pour the wine.


    Leo, however, pped the table, startling Maisy.


    "What''s wrong?"


    Maisy''s face was grim as he looked at Leo.


    He said, "Maisy, didn''t you hear what my father-inw said, everyone has to pour in order, it doesn''t


    matter if you don''t know how much wine we can drink, just pour it full."


    Once this statement was made, Lydia knew that Leo was going to insist, so she did not say anything.


    Maisy was unpleasant.


    "It should be poured full."


    Only when Karl spoke did Maisy stiffen her head and continue to pour.


    But it was a symbolic pour.


    Leo stopped her again, "We have our wine culture, since you are sincerely apologizing, then pour it full.


    Maisy, you didn''t pour it full!"


    Maisy could not wait to p Leo twice, but still carried a smile and poured the wine very carefully.


    In the heat of the moment, the wine spilled out.


    Leo said with a smile, "Maisy, it should be steady, you can''t pour it out, or it is disrespectful to the


    guests, so you have to punish yourself with three ssed of wine."
