Wilderness Redemption Tour

After a friendly conversation, Hosea and Knightley agreed to meet at the Lemoyne National Bank in St. Denis next Monday to discuss the loan.

Hosea's performance was flawless except for a minor flaw in his fabrication of his identity. This required not only rich social experience, but also improvisation and adaptability. Compared with an expert like him who has been in the industry for decades, Lin Yan felt like a simple sheep.

"See? It's not that hard to lie." After saying goodbye to Knightley, Hosea pulled Lin Yan to an empty self-service food counter, picked up a piece of exquisite cake and ate it while saying, "30% depends on the performance, and 70% depends on the other party's imagination. As long as you grasp the other party's needs, even if the performance is poor, he will automatically ignore some details."

In order to attend this banquet, several people did not have time to eat dinner. Now Hosea easily found his next target. After completing the task, he decided to fill his stomach first.

Lin Yan listened to the other party's teachings with an open mind, but his hands moved faster than Hosea. Hosea ate and talked at the same time, and he ate like a gentleman, but he was different. He had eaten stewed meat, stewed vegetables, and stewed fish for so many days, and he finally saw some desserts. How could he easily miss it?

"Eat slowly. If we weren't invited here, we would have been kicked out for eating like this." Looking at Lin Yan wolfing down his food, He Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He saw the young Dutch and himself in Lin Yan.

The food tables in front of Lin Yan were scattered in every corner of the banquet, with different types of food placed on them for the guests to take at will. The main focus of this party was communication between people, so there was not much food on each food table. Under Lin Yan's strong "offensive", the food on the table in front of them was swept away by him in a short while. Lin Yan, who was only half full, began to focus on other food tables.

Not far from them was a food table with various nuts. Nuts were fine as snacks, but they were not enough to fill your stomach. Just as Lin Yan was about to turn his attention to other food tables, a man standing next to the nut food table caught his attention.

From Lin Yan's perspective, the man was holding onto the table, bent over, his body shaking, as if he was about to vomit because he had drunk too much. But the next moment, his body tilted and he lay straight on the ground.

"Fuck!" Lin Yan exclaimed upon seeing this scene. How much alcohol would one have to drink to have such an effect? ​​This guy must have choked on his food.

Lin Yan had been exposed to the Heimlich maneuver during school, and knew what to do when someone was choking, but he had never practiced it. Now that a living example was in front of him, even if he had never practiced it, he had to bite the bullet and give it a try, just in case he could save the person.

In a flash, after the man fell, a lady standing not far from him screamed, and Lin Yan rushed to the man, straightened his body, knelt on his legs, put his hands on his abdomen, and pressed down hard. If there is really something blocking the other person's trachea or throat, the remaining air in the lungs can push the foreign object out smoothly after such a pressure.

Once, twice, three times, he pressed hard three times in a row. Seeing that the other party still did not respond, he became anxious. At this time, the guests who were curious had gathered in twos and threes. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lin Yan felt a little pressure.

So he checked his posture again, the position of his hands, and after adjusting them slightly, he made another move and pressed down hard.

"Puff! Cough cough cough..." The effect after the adjustment was immediate. In just a moment, the man who had been motionless just now opened his mouth and spit out a fruit shell, then turned sideways and started coughing violently.

[Ding! Achievement obtained: Saving the dying and healing the wounded. Congratulations to the player for completing an achievement and obtaining 1 free attribute point.]

After receiving the system prompt, Lin Yan's tense body finally relaxed.

Seeing that the man was saved by Lin Yan, the onlookers spontaneously applauded. Several ladies among them were even more fond of Lin Yan after seeing his appearance.

The man coughed for a while and was helped to stand up by Lin Yan. He took a glass of wine and cleared his throat. He said to himself with lingering fear: "Ah... this annoying nut, it would be too funny if I choked to death like this."

"Thank you, sir! Thank you so much, you saved my life." After calming down from the shock, he took Lin Yan's hand and thanked him.

Lin Yan waved his hand modestly: "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

"Algernon Worship, I'm an... uh... aesthetician, collector. This is my business card. You can come to my studio when you are free." The other party took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over while introducing himself.

"Jamie Custer, I'm a..." When introducing himself, Lin Yan remembered Hosea's teaching just now. He usually called himself a bounty hunter outside, but this time he made up a new identity for himself: "I'm a... explorer."

"Oh, I envy this job so much." Algernon Worship said with envy, "The exotic customs and the unparalleled beauty are exciting just thinking about it."

"Haha, it's not as good as you think." At this moment, Lin Yan thought of the movie Indiana Jones and National Treasure. "In our line of work, we have to sleep outdoors all year round, exposed to the wind and sun, and sometimes face danger. It's very hard."

Algernon Worship wanted to continue the conversation, but a thought suddenly occurred to him and forced him to leave. "Sorry, I...I have to go to clean my intestines. Let's talk next time."

After saying that, he covered his stomach and disappeared from Lin Yan's sight.

Phew! Fortunately, he left, and Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief. If he continued talking, he would probably have to talk to the other party about clips from the movie. An aesthetic collector who sounded like he had no money was far less worthy of his attention than the banker just now.

"Well done, kid." Hosea came over and praised, "You learn quickly, but remember one thing. In our line of work, you should never use your real name. You can give yourself a common alias. Sometimes it's easy to make mistakes when you make one up on the spot."

"I understand. I will pay attention next time." Lin Yan nodded humbly in acceptance.

Through this episode, Lin Yan gradually attracted more attention with his actions and "handsome" appearance. Wherever he went, there would be female guests who claimed to be single women coming up to him to chat up with him. The subtle, explicit, and suggestive ones not only opened his eyes, but even Hosea, who was with him, couldn't stand it.

He Xia has been in the industry for decades and has never enjoyed such treatment. Lin Yan had just entered the industry and groups of beautiful women came up to him to chat with him. Some even wanted to come to him. The difference in treatment was too great.
