A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 134 Incitement and Old Hatred

"If you don't come, I'll have my coffee soon." Malloy said to Arthur who was sitting opposite him.

Arthur said with a serious expression:
"I don't want to play riddles with you today. Something happened to my man in Valentine Town. He was kidnapped. I want to know, what are you going to do as the Sheriff of Valentine Town?"

"Hahaha, don't be so serious, so is this why you caused such a big fight outside my office?" Malloy did not put away his frivolous look because of Arthur's serious attitude. .

Arthur nodded and replied:
"Yes, I'm going to visit Mr. O'Drisco. Before that, I want to confirm whether Chief Malloy still has a tacit understanding with me."

After Malloy heard this, he sat up straight. He put away his smile, and then carefully looked at Arthur in front of him. Finally, he slowly asked:
"How many times is this?"

Arthur knew what Malloy meant. This was not the first time that Arthur and Malloy confirmed whether the tacit understanding between them still existed.

"I don't like to guess, so I choose to ask you directly face to face every time. It's the same this time. I didn't see your actions, so I came to you and asked you this question again. We also Is there a tacit understanding? Malloy, Sheriff?" Arthur asked again, staring into Malloy's eyes.

The two looked at each other silently for a while, and Malloy was finally defeated. After sighing, he said:
"You should understand that I don't want to provoke Leviticus Cornish. Likewise, I don't want the conflict between you to be resolved in Valentine Town. Yes, I sat back and watched these things happen. I did nothing, but I also did nothing.”

Arthur nodded again, he had gotten the answer he wanted.

"Before I wasn't here, I accepted that you didn't do anything, and now, I'm right in front of you, I'm afraid you have to choose to do something." Arthur said calmly, as if he was sitting on his absence for Malloy What happened at that time did not make him angry.

"..."

"Hold on tight, I don't have much time, I have to save people." Arthur urged the silent Malloy.

At this time, Arthur made people feel a strong sense of oppression. Although his words were straightforward, Malloy had to take them seriously.

In the end, Malloy smiled as usual. He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and said:

"Okay, okay, don't act like if I don't cooperate, someone will rush in and kill me in the next second, okay? The day before your people were captured, old Ned came to tell me the news. , Well, I spent some time and followed it personally. The six o'clock cabin that this group of people went to was, yes, the old stronghold of O'Drisik that they destroyed before, and they reoccupied it... Hello ?I haven’t finished speaking yet!”

Seeing Arthur getting up and leaving in a hurry, Malloy quickly caught up and said:

"Don't be impulsive, they set up a fucking machine gun over there! Do you know that you are going to die?"

After Arthur shook off Malloy's hand, he said without hesitation:

"Those are my people. Not to mention one machine gun, even ten! They are all dead!"

After saying this, Arthur pushed open the door of the Sheriff's Office and came outside. He saw Charlie and Bison standing at the front of the crowd at the door. Behind him were the heavily armed men. Everyone was ready. They gathered at the Here, at this time, they and the townspeople watching here all turned their attention to Arthur who came out from inside.

Arthur looked back at Malloy, who had not come out, and then looked forward again. After scanning the crowd in front, he did not forget to put Valentine's police badge on his chest first, and then He also adjusted his expression.

Arthur looked resolutely and said loudly to everyone:

"Gentlemen, my name is Arthur Callahan. Some of you may have dealt with me, and some of you may know me. Yes, I have some assets in the town of Valentine, and I also serve as Temporary sheriff post for the Valentine Police Department."

"As Sheriff Malloy always says, we are a town with simple laws in Valentine, and anyone is welcome as long as they do not violate our laws, but what is infuriating is that such a tolerant , a harmonious and peaceful town, we are still constantly being destroyed and plundered by those illegal gangs!" The people below began to become a little restless at this time, and they were discussing in whispers. Most people did not know this Something happened again, and the few who knew a little about it began to spread the knowledge among the crowd.

Not only the townspeople, but also Charlie, Bison, and the guards didn't understand. They didn't know what their boss was going to do.

Just listen to Arthur continue to say to everyone:

"The O'Driscots are back again! They came to town a few days ago and kidnapped our townspeople, and today they demanded a large amount of ransom from us! Gentlemen, we all remember the past Days, in the town of Valentin, the responsible businessmen who do small businesses, they work hard, and finally earn a little money, but they have to pay protection fees to them. Every townsman who goes out and walks on the road must Be on high alert! We must always worry about whether the bandits who appear suddenly will kill him brutally after stealing the money! Even when we stay at home, we may have to worry about the bullets that fly because of the crossfire on the street. You won’t accidentally kill us!…”

"That's right!"

"Correct!"

"you do not say!"

When the townspeople living in Valentine heard what Arthur said, they all felt the same way. The tragic experiences in the past came to their minds one after another, and they began to respond underneath.

Seeing that the emotions of the townspeople had been aroused, Arthur did not continue to incite the crowd further. After all, he was not trying to hang the police chief, so the emotions of the townspeople were about the same.

Arthur turned to look down at his employees who were not interested in this, and said:

"Gentlemen, don't think that this has nothing to do with you. Strauss put all the money."

At this time, Strauss came to Arthur from the crowd below. He put the two large suitcases in his hands directly next to Arthur, and then opened them.

For a moment, everyone was firmly attracted by the two boxes full of cash, and among them, the desire shown in the eyes of Arthur's employees was the strongest.

Seeing this, Arthur took the opportunity to declare loudly:

"In a moment, you will join me. We are going to destroy a stronghold of the O'Drisik Gang outside the town, and we are going to rescue the kidnapped townspeople! I promise you that in the battle, every time you gain You can take five dollars from me for just the ears of a member of the O'Drisco Gang!"

"And all the townspeople of Valentine, this money is also related to you. After today, I promise you that as long as you see members of the Odrisk Gang in the town, you can come to me. , as long as they are finally caught, each one! You can also take five dollars from me!"

As soon as Arthur finished speaking, a man in the crowd shouted loudly:
"Oh... Mr. Callahan! There is a member of the O'Drisco Gang here! Don't run!"

Soon, the person who was identified was thrown to the ground.

Arthur didn't say anything. He didn't care how they divided the money. He immediately counted out five dollars from the box next to him and gave it to the person he just identified.

As for whether this person is the one identified?Arthur didn't care, and his speech ended at this time. After handing the man to Cole and taking him to prison first, Arthur mounted his horse and shouted to his people:

"Now, everyone, mount up! Let's go! An O'Drisco Gang member's ear costs $5! I'll charge you as much as you want!"

"Go make money!" The guards shouted loudly, their emotions were all exceptionally high without exception.
