Survival begins with Red Dead Redemption 2

Chapter 54, Deaths, Reports, Pensions
54,

Everyone has blood and courage, but it's hard to say how long they can last.The torment between life and death requires lofty ideals and firm beliefs to overcome. Obviously, the group of guards under Captain Kahn does not have these.

If the death of the first guard shattered their blood and courage, then the death of the second teammate trampled the last trace of their humanity under their feet and crushed them to pieces.The friendship between friends and the friendship between teammates are all ignored. The humming in the pit is getting louder and louder, but all that remains in their minds is the dusty shovel they dug and the black muzzle of that madman. .

Dai Ping'an is that lunatic.

Captain Kahn's muzzle was trembling, not because Javier also pointed the gun at his head, but because he had just discovered that Dai Pingan under his gun was a complete lunatic.

"stop!"

"Please, stop."

"I was wrong, please, stop."

The soil around the pit was shoveled less and less, and the humming became weaker and weaker. Dai Pingan under the gun was indifferent, but Captain Kahn's tone became softer and softer. From order to request, it softened into hysterical begging in the end.

"It's useless." Dai Ping'an turned around, Captain Kahn's arm holding his neck was limp and useless:
"Even if I die, they won't stop, because you only have two bullets in your gun, and we have several guns. Killers, people will always kill them, and they will have to pay them back sooner or later. This simple The truth, I already understood it, and you should understand it too.”

While talking, Dai Pingan threw away the empty bowl in his hand, supported Captain Kahn's Delinger pocket pistol, and aimed it firmly between his eyebrows.

Feeling the coldness brought by the muzzle of the gun, seeing Captain Kahn's struggling expression, Dai Ping'an's eyes became a little more colorful, and he suddenly had the urge to be relieved.Why?Is it because of his viciousness and depravity?Or is it my habitual insensitivity?Or angry at the incompetence of something?
Dai Pingan didn't know.

"Let's do it." There was a hint of hope and excitement in his voice.

"Bah!"

The bullet flew, and when Captain Kahn pulled the trigger, Dai Ping'an tilted his head, just in time for the bullet to fly out by rubbing against the edge of his head.After dodging the bullet, Dai Pingan shook his head excitedly, wiped away the blood from his nose, and turned the muzzle of Delinger's pistol again.

This time, the muzzle is hot.

"Come again, you still have another chance."

There was still a bullet in the gun, but Captain Kahn couldn't detain it no matter what. The irreversible foregone conclusion made him give up the last struggle. Dai Ping'an's voice was like a spell, tearing away the last hope in his heart. smash.

He knelt down again limply, not even caring that the pocket pistol fell into Dai Ping'an's hands.He's finished, and he's completely broken.

"Murdering and looting is the plan of our guards, and we are just planning it. Kill me and let them go. They just arrived this time and don't know anything."

Captain Kahn confessed that he only wanted to die now, but after hearing this, Dai Pingan, who was playing with the pocket pistol, seemed to find something happy.

"Haha, did you hear that? Harry, they actually want to kill us, haha, they really want to kill us."

Javier's face twitched. He didn't understand what was so ridiculous about this matter, and he didn't know what kind of crazy Dai Pingan was having tonight, so he could only forcefully smile along with it in the end.Seeing Javier like this, Dai Pingan smiled even more happily. While smiling, he took Captain Kahn's original pistol from Javier's waist.

This is a double-action revolver. Looking at the patina on the handle, it shows that he has been with Captain Kahn for a certain number of years.

"Forget it." Dai Pingan signaled the buried guard to stop, and then opened the magazine of the revolver in front of Captain Kahn, ejected four bullets, and put the gun into Captain Kahn's hand after closing it. .

"I thought you were not a good person, but I didn't expect that you were not even a bad person. Go, you can try to help them."

When the piece of white bread was thrown at Dai Ping'an's feet, the two brats of the Brown family were dead.Too lazy to think of any high-sounding reasons, Dai Pingan just wanted them to die.

There is no empathy in the adult world, and Dai Ping'an doesn't expect others to empathize with him. He only needs to let others understand one thing. Anyone can provoke him, play with him, or provoke him, as long as he is prepared to bear revenge. Just be ready.

Staggering, Captain Kahn came to the edge of the pit again.

The bottom of the pit was half buried in the soil, because there were two dead bodies pressing on them, and the Brown Brothers didn't even have room to wriggle and struggle, and most of their bodies had sunk into the soil.Seeing Captain Kahn and Dai Pingan by the pit, the terrified two struggled, moaned, and begged for mercy.

Gritting his teeth, Captain Kahn pulled the trigger.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

After two consecutive gunshots, the humming stopped. Before Captain Kahn could turn his head, Dai Pingan, who was standing behind him, had already slapped him on the head with a shovel horizontally.Captain Kahn fell into the pit together with his pistol. Dai Pingan glanced down. He was still alive, so he handed the shovel to the remaining guard who hadn't done anything.

"Substitute, continue to bury."

Captain Kahn also went in, and Dai Pingan, a lunatic, stood in front of him, and the five of them took turns to fill the landfill even faster.The loess almost covered Captain Kahn's twitching body. At this moment, Dai Ping'an turned his attention to the accompanying Cornwall company manager.

This is a thin and small man, and his gray hair indicates that he has already passed his forties.Under the intimidation of Dai Ping'an, although he was also trying his best to fill the soil, his years of office work and his young age made him really unable to do this job.

When Dai Pingan looked over, he was so nervous that he couldn't even hold the shovel in his hand, and it fell to the ground with a "clang".He wanted to bend down to pick it up, but found that the demonic lunatic had already arrived in front of him.

"What's your name?"

"Nigard, Lester Nygard."

"It turned out to be Mr. Nygard, are you tired?"

"I'm not tired, I'm fine." Facing Dai Pingan who kept approaching, Lester wanted to hide, but was still held by Dai Pingan.Dai Ping'an smiled like a chicken staring at a weasel, and he stuffed the M1900 into the opponent's hand:

"I'm getting older, so I should take care of it. We can do it differently."

As he spoke, Dai Pingan grabbed Lester's hand holding the gun and aimed at Captain Kahn's body at the bottom of the pit.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

After five shots in a row, the bullets ran out, Captain Kahn's twitching body was completely motionless, and Dai Pingan took the gun back.

"Mr. Nygard? Mr. Nygard..."

Dai Pingan yelled several times in a row, and Leicester who was frightened finally came back to his senses:
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Nygard, I just want to ask you a question."

"I~I~I'm just a small manager of the company, I don't know anything, really, I don't know."

"Don't worry, Mr. Nigard, this question is very simple," Dai Ping'an said with a smile on his face, but in Lester's eyes, it was like a call from a demon from hell:
"Captain Kahn, and the four guards including his two nephews, how did they sacrifice tonight?"

"sacrifice?"

In the pit, the freshly filled loess still oozes Captain Kahn's blood, and outside the pit, wisps of smoke are still wafting from the muzzle of Dai Pingan's pistol.Lester's brain was running fast, and he quickly came up with the correct answer:
"It's a bandit!"

"Yes, it's a bandit! It's a bandit! We met a bandit here tonight. It was Captain Kahn who bravely stayed behind with two guards, and sacrificed himself to cover everyone from leaving alive."

"What about Brother Brown?"

"Yes~ yes~ they are traitors, yes, that's right, they are traitors in the team, they colluded with gangsters and betrayed us." Manager Lester became more and more excited as he spoke, as if this was the truth.

"and then?"

"Then? Then everyone left under the cover of Captain Kahn. We don't know what happened here. Yes, that's how it happened."

Dai Ping'an smiled even more happily. Lester's answer perfectly explained everything that happened here, even why Brother Brown died at Captain Kahn's gun.Looking around, he found that the remaining three guards and an assistant nodded one by one, and he let go of Lester.

"May I ask how much the Cornwall company pays for the sacrificed employees?"

"Twenty dollars."

Dai Pingan took out a hundred dollars and handed it to Lester.

"Remember to pay double pensions to their families. You report and I will pay. Captain Kahn and the others cannot sacrifice in vain."

Lester repeatedly agreed, and then Dai Pingan waved back.

"This morning, I gave Captain Kahn a hundred dollars, but unfortunately he lost it, including his life. It's a pity."

While talking, Arthur took the money.

This time it was five hundred dollars, and everyone had a share. Dai Pingan believed that no one would lose the money this time, and Dai Pingan also believed that the money would bring enough comfort to these people.

After compromising the first time, there will be a second time, and a third time, not to mention that they have personally made no turning back, and there is no need to think about how to choose between death and the dollar, even if the filled hole under their feet is stuck. Captain En's blood hasn't completely cooled down yet.

The reality is that it is so simple to give up a person.

Arthur gave them back their weapons, but only five bullets remained in each of their repeating rifles.No one objected, it was lucky to survive this night, not to mention they took money.The manager Lester started to draft the report by the firelight. On the blank report, everyone filled in their names in the witness column.

After the guards are settled, it's time for the hundred Chinese workers.
