A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 290 Arthur disappeared

"Tell me, what does it mean that Arthur is not here?!"

Ryan, who had come to Arthur for the second time, yelled angrily. It was a medical miracle that he was still able to walk with a cane all over his body covered in bandages.

Since renting the third floor of the Saint-Denis Hotel for a long time, this original VIP room has been converted into an office and reception room. Hosea is now sitting where Arthur originally sat. The meeting request, he calmly refused again:
"Ryan, I explained it clearly to you yesterday. Arthur is not here. As for the attack you encountered, I have also understood it and we are dealing with it. If you have anything else to say, you can choose to tell I can also wait until Arthur comes back, and then you can tell him in person. If you don't understand any of these words, I can tell you again, okay?"

Ryan suppressed his anger and said as calmly as possible:
"Bronte started to fight back. At this time, you told me that Arthur actually left Saint Denis? How do you make me believe that you are not lying to me?"

"Why should I lie to you?" Hosea asked puzzledly.

Ryan looked into Hosea's eyes and said in a serious tone:

"Tell me honestly, did something happen to Arthur too?"

Compared with what Hosea said, Arthur left St. Denis, and Ryan believed that Arthur was also attacked by those little monsters just like himself.

Even if you think about it a little more extreme, Arthur may not be as lucky as yourself, and maybe he is already dead?
As for Ryan's imaginative speculation, Hosea couldn't help laughing, and Sean sitting beside him couldn't help but said:
"Stop your imagination. If something happened to Arthur, I guarantee you that Saint Denis would have been turned upside down by now."

"..."

Seeing that even if he continued to struggle, he seemed to be unable to get an accurate answer, he had no choice but to say angrily:
"Okay, then I need more money and weapons!"

"?" Hosea frowned and asked in disbelief:

"Do you think we are doing charity?"

"So, I said, I want to talk to Arthur!"

Hosea stood up directly from the chair, put his hands on the table, leaned forward, and continued to ask in an incomprehensible tone:
"If I remember correctly, you have already taken over half of Bronte's territory. You have also taken over all his large and small casinos, small hotels, and small bars. You should not be short of money, right?"

Indeed, Ryan is now different from when he had nothing, but why not be able to reach out to find what others want?
Just listen to Hosea continue to say:
"If you want weapons, no problem, just spend money to buy them. Want money? Sorry, go and earn it yourself. Ryan, you have passed the time when others put food into your mouth. Also, remember to pay the bills." Let’s make it clear, everything you own was given to you by Arthur, and we will draw a reasonable amount from all your business after looking at your account books.”

"..."

Well, I came to ask for money, but I couldn’t ask for a weapon. Instead, I was told to pay tribute. However, for this, it is reasonable, and Ryan is not very resistant. After all, there is one thing Hosea said is right. All that he has now was indeed given to him by Arthur, he will not deny this, and of course he also understands that if he does not intend to turn against Arthur and his group, then the transfer of benefits is a must.

"I understand what you mean, but I have to remind you, Mr. Matthews, our advantage in Saint-Denis will soon be gone. The Chinese have stopped expanding and have begun to guard the territory they have already obtained. No, I’m the only one who can’t take all the Bronte territory.” Lane reminded.

Hosea nodded and said:

"You don't have to worry about this. I've told you before. You just need to hold on to your current territory. We have also said hello to the police station. They will turn a blind eye to your people. You see, the only trouble you have is the Italians."

"Okay, last question, do you have any news about that man and the two children?" Speaking of this, Ryan felt that the wounds all over his body began to hurt.

If he hadn't happened to be inside the bar during the explosion, and all bar counters in slums were internally bulletproof-reinforced, and he had squatted down in time when the explosion occurred, he would have been one step ahead now. Just like Ramiro who realized something was wrong and tried to throw the bomb...

Hosea did not immediately answer Ryan's question. Today, the entire Saint-Denis can be roughly divided into three parts: the Chinese area in the west, the Italian area in the south, and the Mexican area in the north.

In these places, including the Italian District, after Hosea learned about the attack on Ryan, he not only sent his own people to search, but even asked Sheriff Lambert to cooperate with the investigation, but he could not find this group of people. .

"About this, if there is any news, I will inform you. If there is nothing else, let's talk here."

"..."

It wasn't until Ryan left and Henry came to indicate that there was another guest that Hosea was able to get out of the state of thinking alone.

After signaling to invite people in.

Looking at Zheng Shixiong who was turning the iron gall in his hand, Hosea asked him to take a seat and said:
"Mr. Zheng, why are you free to come here today?"

“Bronte and I met.

Seeing Zheng Shixiong's expression as he spoke, even though He Xia already had a bad premonition, he still asked:
"Oh? Such a good opportunity, did Mr. Zheng not give him a ride?"

Zheng Shixiong smiled lightly and said:

"Mr. Matthews is just joking. I came here today mainly to tell Mr. Morgan in person that we have an armistice with the Italians. However, Mr. Morgan seems to have not come back yet. I want to tell you directly as well. of?"

"Mr. Zheng, I thought you weren't such a short-sighted person?"

After stopping the iron gall spinning in his hand, Zheng Shixiong said:

"You should be able to understand that war is not good for business. Bronte and I have reached a good condition. At least now, we have no reason to do anything anymore."

"It's so regrettable to hear you say that. I think Arthur will feel the same way." Hosea did not show his emotions on his face, but just hinted that Arthur would not like Zheng Shixiong's decision.

Whether Zheng Shixiong heard the meaning of Hosea's words is unknown to others. However, before getting up and leaving, he seriously reminded:

"Mr. Morgan and I are very close. Now that he is away, I will remind you that Bronte is bent on destroying you. For this reason, he even made crazy concessions in the negotiations with me. You'd better be prepared. His revenge will come soon."

"Thank you."
