A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 332 If you can be his friend

After Jacob Spencer left Arthur frustrated, he didn't spend much time figuring out what went wrong with his visit.

"William, find a hotel. The original plan has to change. We may have to stay in Rhodes for a few days."

William was the only confidant that Jacob brought to this newly established department. He was less than 25 years old, and his short blond hair and fair skin looked out of place with his strong figure.

In response to Jacob's instructions, William nodded and agreed, and then said:

"Director Spencer, where are you going? If you are not in a hurry, it is best to let me accompany you. This is not a city after all. I hope you can pay more attention to your safety. "

"There is a police station and a chief in Rhodes Town. Don't worry about my safety. You go and arrange the accommodation. I will take people with me to handle the matter. Of course, if you have taken care of it, you can also come to the bank to find it. Me, I'm going to visit Addison."

After William ordered several agents, he left to find a hotel where he wanted to stay.

……

Moriarty, who was in a good mood recently at Lemoyne State Bank, saw Jacob who came to visit, happily stepped forward and hugged him, and said:

"Jacob, I really didn't expect you to show up here. What kind of wind has brought you out?"

Jacob followed Moriarty into the office and said with a smile:

"A new job brought me here. How are you? I haven't seen you for so many years. How are you doing?"

"It's not bad. Apart from gaining a lot of weight, my wife is very beautiful, the girl is very obedient, and my work is going well. I should be living a good life." Moriarty said with unconcealed pride.

It can be seen that the relationship between the two seems to be very good.

After hearing Moriarty's 'modest' words, Jacob laughed loudly, tapped Moriarty and said:

"Addison, you guys are really dissatisfied! You can still say it's okay, it's obviously a very good life, look at me, not only I'm still a loner now, but I was doing okay in the first place The job is gone now, and I was recruited to this stupid west to be the director of the investigation bureau, oh, I am too miserable, Addison, tell me, is there anyone worse than me?"

"Okay, okay, you guy hasn't changed at all. Tell me, what do you want me to help you with? Just tell me. As long as you don't let me open the bank vault and let you empty it out, the rest of our relationship will be fine. As long as I can help you, I will definitely help you. Don’t pretend to be pitiful with me here, who doesn’t know how good you Jacob Spencer is. "

Listening to Moriarty's words, Jacob also restrained his wild smile just now, and then he maintained a not exaggerated smile and said:

"Arthur Morgan, you must be familiar with this person."

"..." When Moriarty heard that it was something related to Arthur, the smile on his face immediately disappeared. As for the promise he had just made, he quickly changed his words and said:

"Did I promise you just now that as long as you don't let me open the bank vault and let you evacuate it, I can help you with other things? Sorry, let me add one more thing, related to Arthur Morgan, I can't help you." If before coming here, Jacob only regarded Arthur's place as a small matter that could be solved easily, and attributed the failure in the meeting to lack of preparation, then now, he began to feel differently.

"Addison, what's the matter that I haven't told you yet?"

"No matter what it is." Moriarty answered decisively.

Being rejected before he even opened his mouth, Jacob became serious at this time. He sat up straight and said seriously:
"Well, I guess you could at least tell me why."

"..." Moriarty didn't know how to explain to Jacob. He didn't want to cause Jacob to do anything meddlesome because he said something wrong. He was not sure about his current relationship with Arthur. This relationship is very satisfying, neither too close nor too distant, business cooperation is maintained, but not too deep.

To put it simply, there are benefits, and if something goes wrong, you can't find his relationship.

In the end, Moriarty took into account Jacob's relationship with him and the risks that underestimating Arthur might bring to Jacob. After thinking about it, he cautiously explained to Jacob:
"Let me put it this way, Arthur Morgan is a man you'd be better off with as a friend than as an enemy. Don't turn him down, he can, he dares, and he will eventually Give you a reason why you can’t refuse him, so if you can be his friend, never become his enemy.”

To Jacob's ears, these words coming out of Moriarty's mouth seemed to give Arthur Morgan a very high evaluation?

Regarding the information about Arthur Morgan, Jacob had read it before coming to Rhodes. The detailed records in it started from Saint Denis, so originally, in Jacob's view, Arthur Morgan's sphere of influence should be It was only in Saint Denis, but now after listening to Moriarty's words, Jacob was keenly aware that perhaps as early as Rhodes Town, Arthur Morgan could no longer use the previous one as Van der Linde. Let's look at the image of gangsters who help thugs.

"The defeat of the Gray family and the Brewster family has something to do with Arthur Morgan?"

Jacob's question does not surprise Moriarty. After all, when it comes to Rhodes Town, the two major families have always been a topic that cannot be avoided. Is there any relationship between Arthur Morgan and Arthur Morgan?

Moriarty just shrugged, shook his head and said:

"I don't know. Look, Jacob, that's all I can tell you about Arthur Morgan. If you don't plan to continue catching up with your old friend, then our chat may be over. Here it is.”

Originally, Moriarty thought about inviting Jacob to go home with him for dinner, but now, he has completely lost his previous thoughts.

Seeing that the conversation continued, Moriarty might turn against him, so Jacob had no choice but to get up and leave.

In the end, Jacob didn't even have time to mention what he originally wanted Moriarty to do, and he didn't even find out anything about Arthur Morgan.

At the entrance of the bank, William, who had already booked a hotel, looked at the ugly face of Jacob who came out, and he said carefully:
"Director Spencer, are you going to rest first or..."

"Have a rest! Arrange all the people out for me. If you don't have enough, bring people over. Let me monitor Arthur Morgan's every move around the clock, and then ask the analysts from the Pinkerton Western Division to prepare a new report for me. The latest report is out, and when I arrive, I want to see the file on my desk!”
