When I came to the office building, there were two soldiers with guns at the door.

"Who are you looking for?" The soldier said in a bad tone.

Russell turned to stare at him, and soon the soldiers were defeated, "Please, who are you looking for?"

"Savaltore."

"Are you looking for the mayor?"

Russell nodded.

"Okay, please come in."

Two soldiers opened the gate and Russell walked in.

"Who is he?"

"I don't know, he doesn't look easy to mess with, and I want some tips, but look at his eyes, he should have just come down from the battlefield..."

Russell came to the mayor's office, knocked on the door twice, then opened the door and entered.

"you are?"

Salvaltore got up and asked.

"I'm Russell, the new town security officer. Before I left the battlefield, I was a captain. After I left, I got two medals. This is a soldier who died in the town. Please handle it properly, Mr. Mayor."

Russell put the box containing the ashes on the desk, and while Salvaltore was in a daze, he continued: "I will take office the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, okay..."

Russell nodded in satisfaction, turned and left.

A town mayor doesn't need to be respected at all, because he is just a puppet here, and the army has real power.

His self-reported family background is enough to overwhelm the mayor of Salvaltore. He came down from the front line at this time and got two military medals, which already explained the problem.

If Salvaltore is not a fool, he must know Russell's position on the front line.

Regardless of the victory or defeat of the Italian army, Salvaltore couldn't afford to offend Russell, who returned to the local area with two military medals.

Besides, Russell, as the new town security officer, also does things with a gun, and his language is not tough, which will make people despise him.

Chapter 2 Meeting Marlena for the first time, a sensitive woman is like a cat

Leave the office building.

Russell came to the bustling streets of the town, where there are tailor shops, record stores, introduction offices, coffee shops, etc... Residents also like to hang out on this street on weekdays.

Because you can see the beautiful Malena here every day, with wavy black hair, wearing the most fashionable short skirt and stockings, stepping on the high heels full of lust and fragrance, walking on the street with her head bowed and her eyes lowered. On the road, it is like a beautiful landscape, which makes people want to stop.

Russell walked towards the sea, and at the end was a single-family house, which was Malianna's home.

When he came to the backyard and stood outside the fence, he saw a beautiful woman in a black dressing gown with shiny black hair.

At this moment, Malena was wearing skin-colored silk stockings on her legs, and she was squatting on the ground to dump the ashes while stepping on a pair of high-heeled shoes.

Although there is a sad look on her face, she still has a lovely and charming style. This may be Malianna's unique charm.

Suddenly, Malena still held the ash bucket on the ground, buried her head in her knees, and sobbed quietly.

Russell shook his head slightly, then patted the fence.

Marlena turned her head when she heard the sound, and saw a handsome young man with a height of more than 1.9 meters standing outside, waving to her.

She got up cautiously, wiped away the tears on her face, and walked slowly.

"you are?"

"My name is Russell, Russell Corleone. Lieutenant Scodia's comrade-in-arms and officer. Unfortunately, Scodia's departure, I am as sad as you."

Marlena was a little panicked, she didn't expect that the person in front of her was her husband's officer.

"Mr. Corleone, hello."

"Hello, Marina."

Russell took out an envelope from his jacket pocket, "This is the letter Scodia left for you when he left, I'm sorry I didn't rescue him, he is my best friend in the army, and we are also very close Comrades."

Marlena took the letter, looked at the handwriting on the envelope, covered her face and sobbed.

Russell just looked at her quietly.

After a long time, Marlena stopped crying, and quickly wiped away the tears twice.

"I'm sorry, Mr Corleone, I..."

"I know, I understand how you feel, Marlena... the deceased has passed away, let's mourn."

Malena looked at the letter and nodded blankly, "I'm sorry, you came from a long way, please, please come in... have a glass of water."

Originally, she wanted to invite Russell to drink coffee, but coffee is currently a luxury, and few people in Sicily can afford it.

Many people were hungry and full because of the war, and some people with bad luck starved to death.

Malena doesn't have any source of income, and she even goes to her father's house for meals on weekdays. Since Scodia's death, no one in the town is willing to work for her, and they keep slandering her, calling her a prostitute. Wife, seductive coquettish fox.

Russell stepped into the courtyard and followed Malena into the house.

It's neat, and there are pictures of Scodia on the cabinets.

"Mr. Corleone, you are my husband's officer..."

Russell raised his hand and said, "You're welcome. In addition to our superior-subordinate relationship, Scodia and I are comrades-in-arms brothers! At that time, he was lying in the trench and his arm was blown off. I rushed out of the trench with him on my back to the field hospital. it is a pity…"

Marlena was already in tears when she heard his narration.

"Thank you, thank you for saving him... This, is this the injury you got while saving him?"

Russell looked at the wound and said, "Small injury, if this injury can be exchanged for Scodia's life, I am willing to pay ten times the price."

I heard that Malena cried even more sadly.

But Russell didn't hold Marlena in his arms, let alone comfort him.

Although Scodia meant that Marlena would marry Russell after his death, but now he and Marlena have no relationship basis.

So don't rush.

If you are too hasty, it will backfire.

"Marlena, please read the letter that Scodia wrote to you first. Don't worry, this letter has always been with me, and no one has opened it, including me."

What Russell said was justice Ling Ran.

"thanks…"

When I saw Malena for a while, the most she said was thank you.

She didn't rush to open the letter, but poured Russell a glass of water first, and then sat down to open the letter and read it.

In fact, this letter was written by Scotia before his death by asking Russell to imitate his handwriting, with the purpose of comforting Marlena and arranging various problems after his death.

The reason why she didn't tell Marlena clearly was because she was afraid of Marlena's embarrassment, and more because she took care of Marlena's inner thoughts.

The general idea of ​​the letter is: I am going to die on the battlefield, and your beautiful appearance will inevitably attract criticism. The Captain Russell in front of you is my good brother, and I entrust him to take care of you.If you are in love, get married, I will bless you in heaven...

However, in order to imitate Scodia's handwriting, Russell spent [-] lire.

Yes, he also has an information panel.

[Props: Beretta m1934 pistol, eight universal magazines,]

【Cashbox: 5463】

[Blue blood: After the blood bar is full, you can spend to extract basic skills (the balance will be exchanged to reality at 100:1)]

--

When Malena read the letter, she burst into tears again.

When she saw a certain sentence, she looked up at Russell cautiously, and Russell seemed to have lost a brother, with a sad face, looking at Scodia's photo, and sighing from time to time.

She could feel that Russell was really sad. After reading the letter, she folded it lightly.

"Mr Corleone, thank you, thank you for bringing it to me."

Russell said: "There are also the ashes of the soldiers who died in Scodia and the town. I sent them back. Malena, Scodia asked me to give this to you. This is his salary."

A Scodia pocket handkerchief wrapped five hundred lire, enough money for Malena to live for half a month.

Sicily is currently in short supply of supplies, and coffee, sausage and ham are luxury goods and very expensive.

A bag of bread costs 25 lire. For Malena who has no job, the [-] lire is enough to save her life.

However, the handkerchief in which the money was wrapped was indeed Scodia's, but the five hundred lire belonged to Russell.

When he left the front line as a hero, the Italian army gave him a subsidy of [-] lire.

"Thank you."

Russell shook his head: "You're welcome. Then, I'll leave first..."

"Mr. Corleone? Are you from the town, too?"

"Yes, but my surname is a little sensitive, please help me keep it a secret."

After speaking, Russell left without looking back.

When Marlena came back to her senses, only his back was left behind.

"Mr. Corleone? Ah! Black... It's them... No wonder."

The surname Corleone is well-known in Sicily. In the past, the entire island was belonged to the Corleone family. Even though Mussolini suppressed it terribly, the surname Corleone is still not something ordinary people can provoke.

Malena gently took out the money in the pocket handkerchief, put it under her nose and smelled it.

She knew it was Scodia's handkerchief, so she couldn't help it, but now the handkerchief smelled of Russell's body odor.

"what!"

She screamed, and Russell's face slammed into her head.

"No... I didn't mean to, Mr. Corleone understands my... Scodia..."

Marlena couldn't help shaking her head when she thought of the meaning revealed between the lines in the letter. She couldn't betray her husband, he had only been dead for less than ten days.

Although Russell is tall and handsome, she loves her husband.

--

In Russell's memory, he had a foothold in a small town, but it was a bit remote from the town center.However, he was not in a hurry to rest.

Instead, after a rough stroll around the town, I felt the town's malice.

How long had he been out of Marina's house?two hours?

But now there are already people whispering and cursing on the street, men secretly cursing Marlena behind their backs, women gathered together and calling Marlena a slut with great fanfare, just a few days after her husband died, she was anxious to find a man.

Among them, the dentist and his wife scolded him the most. In the movie, the dentist and Lieutenant Cardi fought each other in front of Marlena’s house. It doesn't matter that he made Marlena completely heartbroken.

There are not many good things in the whole town.

Originally, Russell wanted to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Sicily quietly, but now it seems that he has no chance.

As a security officer, he must punish these outspoken people!

--

Russell came to the foothold and found that it was a sea view room, close to the sea, and he could hear the sound of the waves in the room.

This house was a welfare house given by the Italian army when it was assigned work. Due to years of disrepair, the roof and courtyard were covered with weeds and looked dilapidated.

As soon as Russell entered the house, he was forced to retreat by the blowing dust.

He frowned and turned to leave, wanting to go to the job agency in the bustling street to find two servants.

It is best to repair the house and manage the flowers and plants, and the other to cook the fire and clean the house.

However, when I walked to the beach, I met a few half-grown children sitting on the embankment, making gestures of size.

He beckoned kindly and shouted, "You guys come here!"
