Chapter 245 Your new crime
Chapter 245 Your new crime
The light from the burning fire in the Saint-Denis Times building was particularly eye-catching at night.
Standing at the bow of the ship, Leviticus Cornwall said to Mayor Lemieux frowning behind him with a serious face:
"I guess this fire probably has something to do with Arthur Morgan."
Although it was not clear where the burn was, it did not prevent Cornish from thinking so.
The owner of the "Journal of Saint-Denis", he smiled and said nonchalantly:
"Mr. Cornwall, when tomorrow's newspaper comes out, everyone will shout about Arthur Morgan and beat him up. Then he will be arrested and the judge will be bribed in advance. Whether you want oil fields or something, then It's all up to you, don't worry, he can't escape."
Cornwall admitted that what Hector Fellowes said did make sense, but after the Cameron incident, he conducted a detailed investigation of Arthur Morgan. If the former Arthur Morgan , Cornwall is really not worried about what waves he can make, but now, that is hard to say.
Moreover, Pinkerton Detective Superintendent Webster's attitude towards Arthur Morgan is also strange...
Before Cornwall could think about it for long, Mayor Lemieux said worriedly:
"The fire looks quite big. I'm afraid I have to go back first. Mr. Cornwall, don't worry, the city hall has already approved the land on the outskirts of the city. As for this Arthur Callahan, or someone from Morgan, I will give you all the help I can give you, within my ability."
Looking at Lemieux who was anxious to leave, Cornwall nodded, and then promised again straightforwardly:
"Go ahead. When you run for governor later, I will help you with the private matters as well as the public sponsorship."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Cornwall, then I'll go first."
"Go."
……
Also looking at the burning building in the distance was Leon, who had fallen in front of a residential building. He was lying at an angle where he could see the soaring fire.
Ryan, who had just escaped from Carl's pursuit, was full of unwillingness at this time. It was obvious that as long as he waited a little longer, he could take the gun and money sponsored by Arthur to kill his own Mexicans. Territory, why, why can't you give yourself a little more time.
Karl used his last bit of strength to turn his body over. He leaned on the steps and looked at the bullet holes in his waist that were bleeding out. When he ran away just now, he didn't feel that he had been shot, but now he never mentioned it again. No more strength.
With the loss of blood, Leon felt that his consciousness began to gradually blur, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier. And just before he fainted, the last voice he heard seemed to be that of a woman?
"Capo! Ramiro! Come out and help, there's someone injured at the door."
……
On the open-air balcony on the third floor of the Saint-Denis Hotel, Arthur held his hand on the railing and looked at the fire and rising smoke not far away. The person he sent to inquire had just returned, and the news he brought back left Arthur speechless.
Hosea, who also heard the news, was pacing back and forth behind Arthur and said:
"Isn't it worse? After tomorrow, not only the "Journal of Saint-Denis", but also other newspapers will write you on the front page, Arthur Morgan, to take revenge on the "Journal of Saint-Denis" and brutally Fire destroyed the newspaper office.”
"You know it wasn't me."
"I know what's the use. You point to a wild dog by the side of the road and say it bites people. Then you hang it, and the onlookers will only applaud."
People's words can make gold, and people's words are awesome.
How could Arthur not understand this? Although the contents in the newspaper are not all nonsense, it is not that the facts are not important. If it continues to ferment, it will indeed be a big trouble.
Arthur turned around and asked Hosea:
"You went today and didn't see the mayor, did you?"
Hosea did not stay in the hotel today, but was sent by Arthur to meet the mayor, but he waited there until night, Hosea did not see Lemieux.
"Yes, although I didn't meet the mayor, I talked a lot with that Jean Mark." Listening to Hosea's tone, he obviously gained something, so Arthur asked:
"Tell me what happened."
Hosea said seriously:
"Jiang Mark has been helping the mayor do something recently, but it didn't go well. This is not the point. The point is that I found that this Jean Mark obviously can't stand many of the mayor's practices. He even talked to him I bluntly say that Lemieux has embarked on the wrong path and abandoned his true heart."
Arthur pondered this information and asked:
"What about that non-important thing? What did the mayor ask him to do?"
"It is said that the mayor is buying a lot of collections in order to build a museum in Saint-Denis, and among them, a batch of oil paintings bought from Paris, France, seems to have something wrong, and the mayor asked him to solve it. Regarding this part, Jean-Marc did not go into details, but he did mention a name—Professor Sif Thackeray."
Arthur thought for a moment and said:
"A professor who brings trouble to the mayor? Oil paintings? Collections?..." Arthur thought briefly, and then said decisively:
"Yes, there is only one possibility, that is, the paintings bought by the mayor are fake paintings..."
"Arthur, I'm back!"
"..." Looking at Sadie who opened the balcony door and came in, Arthur put aside the conversation with Hosea, then asked and told her what to do:
"So? Can you explain to me what's going on with the burning newspaper office not far away?"
"Ah, this, according to the editor-in-chief, he set the fire himself. However, he has promised that he will never get involved in this matter again, and the newspaper to be published tomorrow is gone. I think this matter is considered Take care of it." Sadie put her hands on her hips and said with a smile.
Arthur rubbed his hair, seeing that Sadie didn't realize how troublesome the newspaper office was burned, he said:
"Why do you think I just asked you to scare the newspaper editor?"
"To stop him from causing trouble to us?"
Although Arthur was relieved to hear that Sadie was talking about 'us', in fact it was only Arthur who was in trouble. Just when he was thinking about how to explain to Sadie.
"Boss, we have a guest. He said you invited him here." Short said as he opened the balcony door.
Arthur knew who was coming. After asking Short to invite the people over, he asked Sadie to rest first. Soon, Short brought Webster to Arthur.
As soon as Webster saw Arthur, he said directly:
"Mr. Morgan, I think there should be no problem in calling you that now. So, do you know that I didn't take you to that contact point to let you use it that way?"
"I was looking for you, and then you came. I think there should be no problem with what I use?" Arthur said with a smile.
Webster shook his head and looked at Hosea sitting beside him. His eyes unconsciously looked at Hosea for a while, but he quickly withdrew his gaze and said normally:
"I guess you didn't find me because you gained something from Bronte, right?"
Arthur turned around and pointed to the burning road not far away:
"What do you see?"
Webster said calmly:
"Your new crime?"
Arthur felt like he was being choked, it was really unlucky.
"...That's not humorous, Mr. Webster."
