A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 352 Murder

Although Joseph had already been prepared, when specific reports about Mobile Credit Company actually appeared in the newspaper, Joseph began to feel uneasy.

After the first article in the LeMoyne State Journal was published, others rushed back to Washington.

Sure enough, the second series of reports came out again today.

Although I don’t know what that guy Jacob did, it’s obvious that he didn’t do anything he was supposed to do.

"Mr. Bonaparte, M. Fax is waiting for you."

"I know, how does he look?"

"Very angry, very angry that Congressman Amis is already in there."

"Thank you."

After arranging his clothes, Joseph bravely followed the secretary. In his mind, he sighed that Amis was such a fucking piece of shit, and at the same time he felt bitterly that Bronte died too carelessly.

If I had known today, it would have been worse than...sigh.

……

On the other side, Jacob Spencer, who had done nothing after being complained by Joseph, was locking himself in the office. He had not yet recovered from yesterday's shock.

As a second-generation graduate who graduated from a prestigious university and has successfully climbed up to where he is today, it can be said that he has been used to intrigues and intrigues since he was a child. To be honest, he has never seen death.

Clearing obstacles, Jacob had done it too.

But a lunatic like Arthur?
Just to let Jacob understand how he does things, he can kill others like chopping vegetables without blinking an eye.

Jacob still seemed to be able to feel the gunfire echoing in his ears until now. Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door brought him back from his thoughts.

"Boom boom boom!"

The knocking on the door continued.

"Dong Dong!!"

"What?!" Jacob finally couldn't stand it anymore and shouted.

Outside the door, William, who returned to the branch first last night, was lucky enough to escape. After hearing Jacob finally reply, he stopped knocking on the door and said to the door:

"Mr. Spencer, please open the door first. I won't ask you what happened last night, but you must read this newspaper right now."

Jacob, who heard the word 'newspaper' inside, suddenly remembered what Arthur had said to him last time.

He opened the door quickly, grabbed the newspaper from William's hand, and started reading.

"Fuck, he is so brave, how can he really dare!"

"Mr. Spencer? I don't understand what you mean, but I think we are going to have a good 'chat' with that Arthur Morgan." William, who was confused, said with meaning.

As for what William meant, Jacob didn't know whether it was a bottoming out of his emotions or whether there were other reasons affecting his decision. He looked a little crazy, and he immediately turned his head and said: Then William ordered:

"Go for it, put down everything else you're doing, use all your hands, don't just talk, I want him dead."

"...Mr. Spencer, is this a bit too much?" William asked carefully.

"Excessive? Sober up, William. Look at this newspaper. What do you think he is doing? He is shaking our country!" For Jacob, things like going up and down the line are just nothing. Something that comes easily.

For a young man like William who was full of patriotic sentiments, he was originally willing to accompany Jacob to the West for the sake of justice in his heart, but this justice may not be the same for different people.

For William, everything he did was for the country, a view rooted in his education.

For this justice, some inappropriate means can also be used to achieve the great goal of achieving the goal.

"I understand, Mr. Spencer, I'll make arrangements right away."

……

On the other end, after finishing the conversation with Jean-Marc, Arthur, who was about to go to the police station again, was informed by Charlie that Lonnie Vincent, Linda's eldest brother, had returned from New York. Yes, waiting for him now.

Therefore, Arthur postponed his trip to the police station and followed Charlie back to the hotel.

Pushing open the door, Linda, Lonnie and Hosea were sitting inside, before Arthur could finish greeting with a smile.

Lonnie, who didn't look good, interrupted Arthur and said:
"I will do what you asked me to do, but the situation may be completely different from what you think. In fact, it can be said to be much worse."

"I'm listening."

Looking at Arthur who was listening attentively and not yet aware of the seriousness of the problem, Lonnie could only continue:
"Your money is gone, it's all gone."

"What do you mean the money is gone?" Linda frowned and asked before Arthur.

And Arthur also put away his relaxed look just now and stared at Lonnie with a serious expression.

Money gone?Arthur wasn't a naive man and he understood every word of that statement, but he couldn't help but think that Lonnie was kidding him.

My money is in the bank, how could it be lost?
Just listen to Lonnie take a deep breath and say:

"It literally means that your money has been transferred. I have talked with everyone in the banks where you deposited your money. Your money has been transferred through legal and compliant procedures."

"I thought it was just frozen?" Arthur asked again to confirm.

Lonnie also knew how outrageous the news he brought back was, so he could only explain again:

"Listen, I originally thought the same as you. I thought your money was just frozen. But I'm sorry, your money was transferred away. I don't know who transferred it. You are involved in all the procedures. I signed it and completed the process legally and compliantly. The only people I can think of who can do this are the people above... Do you understand what I mean? I have watched "Lemoyne" The recent articles in the "Lemoyne State Journal", I can tell you that now, the influence of "Lemoyne State Journal" has exceeded your imagination. I can see newsboys selling newspapers in New York, so you can understand ?"

"What the hell should I understand?" Arthur said a little irritably. This was a situation that was beyond his expectation.

"Are they tired of living?"

This was said by Hosea, and Charlie's attitude was even more direct. He just asked Arthur who was silent:

"Shall I go?"

If things are really as Lonnie said, then this matter cannot be solved like this.

Arthur knew very well that if he really killed them, his money would not come back.

However, it is not possible to do anything at the moment. The plan to short Babylon Company has already progressed to this point. If it fails due to a break in the capital chain, Arthur will lose everything he has now in an instant.
