A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 357 This is justice

After Brad obediently wrote down the information of all the shareholders of Saint-Denis Bank, Arthur had someone push Brad to do the work in a wheelchair.

He took out the cigarette case but found that there were no cigarettes inside. After asking Hosea for one, Arthur said to Strauss, who had been waiting for a long time:
"Strauss, please calculate how much money I can make if I mortgage all the assets I have now."

"Arthur, all your assets mean..."

Arthur blew out a puff of smoke.

"all."

Strauss subconsciously pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose. He didn't know why Arthur needed so much money, but he didn't ask. He just confirmed again:
"In a short time, what you can get may not be a particularly good price, is it okay?"

"It doesn't matter."

This wave of shorting Arthur is determined to win. If he wins, it is easy to say. In case, in case he loses, it doesn't matter whether the price is good or not. He will lose all these mortgaged assets even if he does not mortgage them.

"I understand, I will deal with it as soon as possible."

After Strauss made sure that he truly understood what Arthur meant, he set out to implement it.

……

On the second floor of the Saint-Denis Hotel, after the Bronte incident came to an end, the black receptionist Henry has now become the lobby manager. Although his main job is to serve Arthur, who has taken over the entire third floor, Arthur and the others generally do not have much There are many places where his services are needed, so Henry will also go to other floors to help colleagues who are too busy.

This is not because Henry is nosy, but as Henry's status in the hotel has risen, people around him have become inexplicably friendly to him. It cannot be said that this is snobbery, at least in Henry's own view, when you transform into If you meet better people, you will naturally have the opportunity to meet better people.

For example, Lily, who was in charge of the second floor, asked for leave today, so she asked Henry, who didn't have much to do, to cover for him.

"Why did it take so long for the ice cubes I asked for to be delivered!" Liliana opened the door and complained to Henry dissatisfied.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Although the woman Liliana had a terrible attitude, Henry did not show any dissatisfaction, but just dutifully smiled. Regarding this tenant, Henry did not listen to Lily and him complaining less, a young girl, an old man, lived for a long time It's been a while, and although the girl named Liliana has a bad temper, the old man named Tom Johnson is very generous with tips, and seems to be a big businessman.

Liliana lost interest in continuing to criticize Henry's smiling face, closed the door with a bang, and returned to the house.

"Hmph, dear, look at it, the VIP rooms on the second floor are not as good as the ones on the third floor. It's so slow to get an ice cube, so why do we have to give up the room above!" Liliana complained in a coquettish tone. road.

Tom, who was lying on the bed wearing only a pair of large underpants, was smoking a cigarette and casually agreed to Liliana. He had been on a business trip to Saint Denis for some time. For Liliana, a beautiful girl, after the initial novelty faded, , now only her good-looking skin makes him willing to barely talk to her.

"Hey, just bring the ice cubes. Pour me a glass of wine."

"..." The brief dissatisfaction disappeared fleetingly on Liliana's face. By the time she lay in Tom's arms holding a wine glass with ice cubes, she had already put on a sweet smile, and then used that He said in a slightly hoarse voice:
"My dear, you promised to take me shopping for jewelry."

"I——!" At this time.

Before Tom could finish his words, the door was knocked open, Henry was pushed in from the outside, and the man with the gun all formed a scene that told him to shut up.

Liliana's eyes widened in horror, and her mouth opened wide, revealing a pair of big white teeth. The next second, her scream was about to escape from her throat. Fortunately, William, who came in last, stepped forward quickly and put the barrel of the gun in his hand. After stuffing it in, Liliana's screams were swallowed back again.

"Shh, don't make any noise, understand?" William said seriously, raising a finger in front of his mouth.

Liliana didn't dare to nod too hard. She felt her heart beating wildly. When the barrel of the gun left her mouth, she immediately covered her mouth with both hands.

Henry, who was lying on the ground with his hands raised in the air, said carefully:

"What do you want to do? I'm just a waiter. I have no money and I haven't offended anyone. No matter what you want to do, I promise you. Please don't hurt me. I still have my old mother at home..."

William was wiping the saliva-stained gun barrel with the bed sheet, and said without looking back:

"Henry, don't be afraid, we know you very well, we just have a favor and want your help."

"I don't know how I can help you, I'm just a waiter..."

"Yes, it's just because you are a waiter that you can help us, isn't it?" William nodded to his men, looked at Tom and Liliana who were still motionless on the bed and said softly:
"Feel sorry."

"?"

"!"

Immediately afterwards, the two subordinates picked up pillows and covered their faces. Although Tom and Liliana were struggling desperately, it was only a futile effort.

When it was confirmed that they had lost their breath, William squatted down in front of Henry and said seriously:
"You are a smart man Henry. Our target is Arthur Morgan, but the security on the third floor is a bit too tight. We don't want to make too much noise, so we need you to help us."

"I……"

"Think carefully before you speak. As I said, we know you very well. For example, your family in the country. You are a good and filial child. You send money to your family every month. You have lovely younger brothers and sisters. Yes, we You all know, listen, you're safe, and the help we're asking of you is just a small, trivial favor."

William watched Henry unconsciously look at the body on the bed, seemingly questioning whether he was really safe. Seeing this, William patiently explained:

"I'm sorry that I have to deal with them. After all, what we are going to do together is a very risky thing. They will add unnecessary hidden dangers to the plan. Don't worry, as long as you cooperate with us, we will not do this. Yours, to make you feel better, I can tell you that you are doing the right thing, we are agents of the Bureau of Investigation, and this is my ID."

After showing his certificate, William continued:
"As hard as it may be for you to understand, know that what you did was for our country and it was justice."
