Chapter 2454

Facing the angry fat man, Sokov apologized to him again with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry, comrade, it's all my fault. Please don't worry, in order not to disturb your rest, I won't pace anymore. "

"You won't do it if you say you won't. Who knows if you will continue to walk around the house after I go down." Who knows that the fat man is an unscrupulous person, and Sokov has obviously apologized to him. But he was still aggressive: "You must move out immediately, I will not allow you to live above me anymore."

Hearing what the fat man said, Sokov couldn't help but suppress the smile on his face. Because he was thinking about the problem and pacing back and forth in the room, which affected his rest, he had sincerely apologized to him. Who knew that the other party thought that he was weak? He is easy to bully, and he goes even further and tries to drive him away.

"Waiter, waiter!" After the fat man said this, he ignored Sokov and turned to the waiter's duty room and shouted: "Where is the waiter?"

Before the waiter could rush over, the door next to him opened, and Yakov, wearing a military uniform, poked his head out and said dissatisfied: "Whoever is shouting outside is not afraid of disturbing other people's rest?"

 I heard someone talking next to me, and I was about to have an attack. But after seeing clearly the military uniform Yakov was wearing and the gold stars on his epaulettes, he couldn't help but panic: "Yes... I'm sorry, General... Comrade General, I... I didn't mean to disturb your rest, please... please forgive me!"

Seeing the fat man's respectful attitude toward Yakov, Sokov couldn't help but wonder: What's going on with this fat man? Doesn't he know his military rank? He actually roared at me, a general, but when he saw a major general, he nodded and bowed to be careful.

But when he looked down, he found that he was only wearing a white pullover, not a military uniform at all. In the eyes of the fat man, he was just an ordinary person. No wonder he dared to roar at him.

"What's going on? What's going on?" At this time, the waitress on duty on the second floor ran over and asked several people: "What's going on here?"

"Waiter, you came just in time." The fat man grabbed the waitress's arm, pointed at Sokov and said excitedly: "I was sleeping in the room downstairs, but this man kept walking back and forth in the room, making me I can't sleep at all. I am now making a formal protest to your guest house, and I must kick this person out of here."

 The waiter knew Sokov's identity, and when he heard what the fat man said, he had an embarrassed expression on his face. Just when she was thinking about how to reply to the fat man, Yakov spoke first: "Comrade, my friend only took a few steps back and forth in the room, and you are going to kick him out. What's the point?"

Seeing that it was Yakov who was talking to him, the fat man suddenly lost his confidence, but he still asked, "Comrade General, is this your friend?"

“Yes, he is my friend.” When Yakov first came out of the room, he also felt strange. The fat man nodded and bowed to him, but when he saw Sokov, he raised his nose and raised his eyes. But when he discovered that Sokov was not wearing a military uniform, he immediately understood that the fat man must have regarded Sokov as an ordinary person, so he dared to be so presumptuous. When he heard the fat man ask this, he smiled faintly and then asked, "Do you want to kick me out too?"

"Don't dare." After hearing what Yakov said, the fat man hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Since he is your friend, let's stop this matter. Let him pay attention and don't keep walking in the house. Let's go. I have to meet with the city leaders tomorrow. If I don't sleep well, it might affect my work."

Yakov originally wanted to wait for the other party to say a few soft words and then let him leave. But now that he heard that he actually brought out all the city leaders, he said displeasedly: "Have you rested well? You will have to wait for tomorrow." Go meet the city leaders, is there any connection between the two?”

"Of course." The fat man pretended to be calm and said, "If I don't get enough rest, I will lose energy when I go to the municipal building every day. Maybe there will be problems when I talk to the leader..."

While the fat man was still chattering away, the director of the guest house heard the sound and came, along with him, Lieutenant Colonel Kulak. The two were chatting in the room when they heard the noise upstairs and ran up to see what happened.

The director came to the waitress and asked her: "What happened here?"

“Comrade Director, that’s what happened.” Seeing that the director personally asked about the matter, the waitress told him what she knew.

After hearing this, the director nodded and said, "Well, I understand. Leave this matter to me." After that, he came to the fat man again and said politely: "Comrade, I am from the guest house." Director, are you saying that the comrade in front of you is pacing back and forth in the room, affecting your rest? Is that so?"

Fatty originally felt that he was alone and helpless, but now he saw the appearance of the director and Lieutenant Colonel Kulak, and he suddenly felt confident again. He thought that although the lieutenant colonel's military rank was not as high as that of the general, as long as he was around, the general would probably not do anything to him. It was out of this consideration that he plucked up the courage to say: "Yes, I was already lying down, planning to rest early and recuperate so that I could go see your city leaders during the day tomorrow. But he was not in the room. Walking around so much that I couldn't sleep at all..."

Hearing the fat man give this reason again, Sokov and Yakov looked at each other and laughed.

The fat man knew that Sokov and Yakov were laughing at him, so he could only ask the director and Kulak for help: "Comrade director, comrade lieutenant colonel, you all saw it, right? He obviously did something wrong. Not only did he not admit his mistake, he actually laughed at me here. I suggest that he be kicked out of the guest house so as not to affect the rest of other guests. "

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Kulak said with a straight face: "I think you are the one who affects the rest of the other guests." Immediately, he came to Sokov, raised his hand in salute, and asked politely , "Comrade General, I wonder what you plan to do with this person?"

Fatty never dreamed that the lieutenant colonel he wanted to rely on would actually salute the person who had offended him, and even call him a general? The fat man was suddenly frightened and broke into a cold sweat. He asked Kulak tremblingly: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, are you saying that he is also a general, or even an admiral?"

"Yes, this is General Sokov. I am Lieutenant Colonel Kulak of the Moscow Garrison Headquarters." Kulak sneered at the fat man and said, "I didn't expect that you are so bold and want to kill one of our troops." A general was driven away from the guest house? Who gave you such courage?"

When the fat man heard what Kurak said, his legs suddenly became weak and he almost sat on the ground. Seeing his embarrassed look, Sokov didn't want to argue with such a person, so he waved his hand and said with some disgust: "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early."

Sokov's words made the fat man feel like he was being pardoned. He hurriedly agreed, then rolled away from here and hurried downstairs.

After the fat man ran away, the director of the guest house discovered that many guests on this floor had been disturbed. Everyone opened the door and poked their heads out to see what was going on outside. He and the waitress quickly came forward to greet everyone. They all went back to rest: "It's okay here, everyone, let's go back and rest."

As soon as Sokov entered the room, Yakov followed behind. As soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said: "Misha, I was wondering how this fat man is so brave and dares to show off his power to you. Later I found out that you were only wearing a pullover. If you were wearing a military uniform, He must have been frightened to death." "I really didn't expect to meet such a person."

"How about we go and deal with him after dawn tomorrow." Yakov suggested to Sokov: "Who dares to offend you without his eyes?"

“I guess we won’t have this chance.” Sokov shook his head and said, “We won’t be able to find this person until dawn tomorrow.”

 “Why?” Yakov asked strangely.

“Do you think, if you were an ordinary person and offended a general for no reason, what would you do?”

Yakov raised his eyebrows: "If I were in the position of a fat man and offended a big shot like you, I would definitely pack my bags and leave here overnight in order to avoid your revenge."

"That's right." Sokov agreed very much with Yakov's statement. No matter what the fat man's origins were, when he found out that he had offended someone he couldn't afford to offend, he would definitely carry the train and run away overnight, but he would not stay. Let yourself take care of him: "I have a feeling he'll be leaving the guest house soon."

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Yakov went over to open the door and saw that the director of the guest house and the waitress on the second floor were standing outside the door, but Lieutenant Colonel Kurak was nowhere to be found.

The director stood at the door and asked politely: "Comrade generals, can I come in?"

"Of course, of course." Since the other party is the director of the guest house, there is no reason not to let him in, so Sokov politely asked him to come in: "Please come in, don't stand at the door."

After the director entered, Yakov asked bluntly: "What is the origin of that fat man?"

“He is a section chief of the Moscow Industrial Bureau.” The director replied: “As a special commissioner, he came to the city to investigate the resumption of production in factories and mines.”

"So, it is indeed possible that he will meet with the city leaders tomorrow."

"Yes, Comrade General, it is indeed the case." Facing Sokov and Yakov, the director was not worried at all. Don't see the fat man going to meet the city leaders tomorrow, but after all Vladimir is In a small city, the status of the city's leaders is not comparable to the two generals in front of them.

Yakov asked a few more questions. Just as he was about to ask where Kulak had gone, he heard a rush of footsteps. Everyone looked towards the door and saw Kulak walking in quickly from outside. .

As soon as Kurak entered the door, he excitedly said to Sokov: "Comrade General, I just followed the fat man down and saw that he had packed his luggage and had already left the guest house overnight and went to somewhere unknown."

After hearing this, Yakov couldn't help laughing. He turned to Sokov and said, "Misha, I'm not wrong. This fat man found that he had offended a big shot that he shouldn't have offended. He was worried about retaliation, so he ran away overnight."

As soon as Yakov finished speaking, Kulak added: "Fortunately, Comrade General is magnanimous and does not care about him. If you really want to take revenge on him, even if he runs to the ends of the world, I am afraid he will not be able to escape his punishment. .”

"Actually, I am also responsible for this matter." Although Sokov hated the fat man in his heart, since others had given up and ran away, there was no need to be acquainted with him. He smiled bitterly and said: "If I hadn't been in the house all the time If he paces back and forth, it won't affect his rest, and things like today won't happen."

"Comrade General, I didn't think well." The director took the initiative to admit his mistake to Sokov: "You are pacing back and forth in the room, maybe it is a habit you developed while commanding operations during the Great Patriotic War. . You inadvertently affected his rest, and you are not to blame at all. Well, in order to avoid similar things happening again, before you leave the guest house, I will arrange any guests in the room downstairs. Check in.”

Since the director has expressed his position, Sokov naturally wants to say two words: "Comrade director, thank you! I'm really sorry that I have caused you such a big trouble."

"Comrade General, what you said is that we didn't do our job well, which is why you were wronged today." The director glanced at the silent waitress next to him and said in a serious tone: "For the waiters on duty today, I will Serious criticism."

Sokov didn't want the waitress on duty on the second floor to suffer an unreasonable disaster because of herself, so he quickly said to the director: "Comrade director, it's the fat guy who made trouble, and it has nothing to do with the waitress. You can't criticize her casually."

In fact, the director did not want to criticize the waitress on duty, but in front of Sokov, he definitely wanted to express his attitude to dispel Sokov's inner anger. At this moment, seeing that Sokov did not want to pursue the matter, he said to the waitress: "Since Comrade General is generous and does not want to argue with you about this matter, why don't you thank him?"

Hearing what the director said, the waitress next to him woke up from a dream. She quickly bowed to Sokov and said politely: "Comrade General, thank you, thank you for your magnanimity and not pursuing this matter."

Sokov waved to the director and said: "Comrade director, everything is fine here. You can go and have a rest. Yasha and I still have something to talk about."

“Well, I won’t disturb you anymore.” The director smiled and said, “If you have anything to do in the middle of the night, please feel free to ask our waiter, and she will do a good job of serving you.”

After the director and the waitress walked out, Kulak stayed behind and asked Sokov tentatively: "Comrade General, in order to prevent anyone from disturbing your rest again, would you allow me to send two soldiers to stand guard for you?"
