The Difference Is Like Between a Dog and a Cow

29 – True Education (3)

“Commander, this is the personnel manager.”

“Oh, come in.”

“Glory to the motherland!”

Captain Michel Robron cautiously stepped into the battalion commander’s office.

Fortunately, Colonel Lockhart’s expression was quite good today.

No, if you think about it, it wasn’t just today.

Since last time Lieutenant Enoch Levandel saved the battalion commander’s spirit by rejecting Sonny Zeppelin’s proposal at a gathering of all the battalion’s officers.

Lockhart Cromwell stayed like that for several days. That’s because I was smiling all day.

Is that all?

I even had the name engraved on the 18th Regiment Commander and Major General Novgordo, the commander of the 8th Division.

As a battalion commander, Captain Michel understood that his mood was not going to go away easily. Right now, isn’t next year the year when the qualification for promotion to colonel is granted?

It was more valuable than anything else to have your name known to the division commander in the Ukrnian Army, where personal connections have a great influence on promotion.

If Mikel had been in the same situation right now, he would have been the same as Lockhart.

‘Are you saying you’re on the side of that bastard, Rex? Is he going to be taken back by the battalion commander?’

The head of the human resources department has made up his mind.

There were a lot of hammocks, so there were not one or two places where I was stabbed, but to be honest, I wasn’t the only one who ate.

As Enoch said, wouldn’t it be possible to cut off the tail with certainty at this opportunity.

‘It seems that the military police are aware that the city situation is not a joke. I need to get along well before I get caught with faults.’

Unexpectedly, field commanders who are at the level of a battalion commander often have no interest in the lives of soldiers or junior officers.

Lt. Col. Lockhart was a similar case.

It would be better to say it in advance, even if you get a little bit of swearing, rather than being questioned by the military police later.

And since you’ve been in a good mood lately, there’s a high chance you won’t even take that swear word.

“So what is your business? I heard he was found urgently.”

“I came to tell you about a complaint received within the battalion.”

“Complaints? He’s not from the outside, but from within the unit?”

“Yes, battalion commander.”

Lockhart’s mustache twitched. The corners of his mouth, which had been slightly raised, go down.

“Isn’t that something you can solve on your own? Not outside, especially inside.”

“This is a serious matter.”

“Serious? How much?”

As soon as he heard that it was serious, Lockhart’s face hardened. When Captain Michel spoke like this, it was a really urgent case.

“It should not be leaked to the outside.”

“Tell me now.”

“There is a soldier named Sgt.

“A fracture? For a moment…… With magic!?”

Lieutenant Colonel Lockhart, who understood the meaning of the personnel manager, jumped up from his seat.

“Some bastard killed a soldier with magic!!!”

He was a battalion commander who was very angry, but he too couldn’t help but put on a confused expression when he heard Captain Mikel’s next words.

“This is Lieutenant Enoch Levandel.”

The person who did that was a new officer he had been keeping an eye on.

“Are you still protesting that you were put in that platoon even though you did that much? I haven’t filled in less than a month yet, but changing positions is a bit…… !!”

“That’s absolutely not the reason, battalion commander. Lieutenant Enoch has no intention of leaving the 5th Platoon.”

“Then why is that friend all right…… Why did you attack the soldiers of the Logistics and Supply Division, who have no contact with that! Is it another accident like last time?”

Captain Michel thought a misfire might have been better.

However, as long as they had already promised to agree with Enoch’s plan, they could not return it.

“Sergeant Rex made a bad joke. Moreover, he allegedly attempted to s*xually assault Sergeant Rumia of the 5th platoon.”

“Damn it.”

The expression of the lieutenant colonel, who had been struggling to maintain his composure until now, crumpled in an instant.

***

There is nothing special about being political.

A conflict that started from a simple misunderstanding can be exploded just by adding a few light words on top of it.

To turn the situation in your favor in that way.

That is the quality of politics.

Things I have experienced and fought against until I got tired of them. In the space of the military, where resources such as engineering and class are limited, there is a lot of slander and politics.

For me, who was crazy in modern times, the reality was that I couldn’t even contain him, let alone subdue him, at the level of Sergeant Rex.

It was honestly amazing that I was able to do this as a soldier until now.

“Ah, Lumia. It is here.”

“Okay.”

I said looking at Rumia, who was moving the closet. Before the full-scale reconstruction of the barracks, the furniture that remained in the basement is being moved to my accommodation.

“Platoon commander, where should I put this?”

“Put it in the room in the middle over there.”

“I will use this room, so don’t touch it.”

It’s not just Lumia Bluet.

Bell Meyer and Sergeant Claude Lane were also silently moving their luggage.

Even Claude, who was blunt in everything, was very sympathetic to moving accommodations.

From noble mtl dot com

– I was on the verge of losing my mind after being stuck in the basement. That’s good news.

Since the last time I turned down Sonny Zeppelin’s proposal in front of the battalion, Claude Lane has softened his attitude towards me.

It was still the same thing, let alone a salute, making eye contact and not attending official schedules such as roll call.

He answered my questions and expressed his intention to participate in renovating the neglected official residence.

If you think about the first time you cursed at the dorm, you could see it as a pretty big development.

“It’s a bit awkward to see them like this because they’re all gathered in such a small space. It looked cozy in the original dorm.”

“It is because there is less furniture. I’m thinking of going out to the city with Rumia this weekend.”

“It’s a city…… ? Platoon commander, wouldn’t it be safer to just order from here?”

Rumia reacted strangely to my words.

Since you had a clear confrontation with Rex yesterday, are you afraid that the bullies in the city will harm you?

It was understandable that Rumia was worried about that.

Also, I was attracted to aggro because I lightly subdued a few bullies on the outing with Bell Meyer, but adding Rex to it would be quite a headache.

But unfortunately, that never happened.

Thump!! Udangtang!!

The door to the residence opened and a man came inside. Being on his crutches, I get caught in the jaws of his entrance and toppled inside.

It was an embarrassing situation, but he came towards us with a tear-stained face.

“Enoch Platoon Leader! Sergeant Rumia!! Please help!! I was wrong!!”

It was Rex.

“I did that without even knowing the subject!! I will take responsibility for Gavial as well, so please take a look!!”

He rubbed his hands, banging his head on the floor. Sgt.

I raised my head slightly and looked at the people standing outside the door.

A jet black uniform and a convoy parked next to it.

It was the same outfit as the members of the gendarmerie that I saw last time at Belgordo Fortress.

It seemed that the battalion commander, upon hearing the report from the personnel manager, immediately gave an appropriate order. After all, it’s Lockhart, I don’t hesitate at times like this.

“Please!! Please be kind just once!! Don’t the platoon commander and sergeant hate things escalating too!?”

“We’ve already reached the military police, so what’s the point? If this was the case, you should have apologized to Rumia yesterday. I’m not going to tell the personnel manager.”

“Huuu!!”

I gave him a chance, but he never gave up on his will.

Now that it has come this far, I had no intention of accepting an apology myself. I don’t know if Rumia, the person in charge, wants it.

“Platoon commander…… What the heck is this…… ?”

“Rumia, what are you planning to do? I will follow Sergeant Rumia’s wishes.”

Now the choice has passed to Rumia.

Then, Rex dragged his body and approached Lumia and shouted.

“Sergeant!! I was wrong!! Sorry! I will never do that again!! Whenever I see Sgt. Please!!”

No matter how powerful he is in the battalion, even if he is a member of a criminal organization with connections in Cherno City.

That’s just a story around here.

If you look at the entire army, Sgt.

As with other armies, there is no easier status for the military police who need ‘performance’.

In the worst case, there was a sufficient probability of being punished as an incident that was not committed.

“Sergeant Rumia, please!!”

There was no way Rex was unaware of that fact. The military police escort is tantamount to a death sentence for soldiers.

Perhaps it would have been better for Rex to decide to desert the moment the head of the personnel department had already closed his mouth.

Well, it wouldn’t be easy to desert in the yard with already splintered ankles.

Rumia stared at Rex, howling at her own feet. She already told her that her pity was non-existent.

“… ….”

“Lord, sergeant?! Sergeant!!”

Rumia’s silver hair is flying around. She turned around and disappeared into her room.

A clear sign of disapproval.

Confirmation of punishment.

There was no such thing as a last chance for Rex in the first place.

“That seems to be the answer, sergeant.”

“I can’t do this…… !!”

“It was a pity to meet you, let’s never see each other again.”

“Please take a look!”

The military police who were waiting outside the building approach to drag him out as he struggles desperately.

It doesn’t matter what the sergeant will end up with. Because the sentence will be determined by the investigators. And since the crime was so vicious, it was certain that he would never receive a half-hearted punishment.

So, all I could say was one word.

“Life is real life, f*ck you.”

I looked at Rex and smiled.
