A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 362 Don’t let the fish get off the hook

In the director's office, he was woken up from his bed by his subordinates in the middle of the night. Then he got dressed and rushed to the police station from home. Even Arthur himself did not believe that Rudy did not greet Arthur's relatives on the way.

But looking at Rudy with a smiling face in front of him and messy hair, who had just asked the people below to bring him coffee, Arthur didn't care whether he had greeted him or not.

"You know what's going on, right?"

"You brought some 'murderers' into my cell?"

Arthur nodded and said:
"Two people died, a girl and a businessman named Tom Johnson. The bodies are still at the St. Denis Hotel. They were agents from the Bureau of Investigation. The leader didn't say his name, and I didn't bother to ask. In short, he It's in solitary confinement. Okay, that's what it is. Now if you have any questions, you can ask them."

Rudy took a sip of the brewed coffee. After Arthur said what happened, he could roughly guess what was going on.

"This Bureau of Investigation is a new department, but it is not low-level. It is directly led by the Department of Justice. Mr. Morgan, they are federal agents. Even if two people die, they can have countless reasons to turn this into a legitimate act."

"What about?" Arthur asked.

Although Rudy didn't believe that Arthur wouldn't understand, since Arthur asked, he still said:
"For example, the two dead people were spies or criminals. Their death is normal for any charge. Mr. Morgan, it's useless for you to keep them here. Someone will come and take them away soon. , and I can’t stop it yet.”

"Even if the crowd is excited?" Arthur looked at Rudy and said with a smile.

"Even...? The crowd is excited? Why?" It's not that the death of two people is very common, but the death of two people is so common that Rudy doesn't even understand the reason for the excitement.

Arthur put down the coffee cup in his hand and said:
"As I said just now, two people died. In addition to Tam Johnson, there was also a girl named Liliana."

Rudy asked in confusion: "Whose daughter is she?"

"Your political thinking is not very correct, Director Rudy." After a pause, Arthur did not show off, but continued:

"The name Liliana may not be very distinctive, but her skin color is very distinctive."

Rudy's reaction was also very quick. He immediately thought of the news he had read in the newspaper today, which was about a black man who was directly lynched on the roadside by a pastor in Georgia for trumped-up charges. There were about 3 people in Chicago. Thousands of residents of color staged less civilized and dispassionate protests.

"Mr. Morgan, I don't think provoking racial tension is a good idea."

Rudy, who wanted to understand, politely rejected Arthur's proposal. He didn't want the entire Saint Denis to fall into chaos and then be destroyed by thugs who smashed, smashed and set fire to the place.

Protest is a very dangerous word.As if he understood what Rudy was worried about, Arthur said with certainty:
"Of course, this is not a good idea. Of course, I have another suggestion that I don't like very much, that is, Director Rudy, you should imprison them first, at least until the people above are completely unable to sit still. You insisted on handling this case through legal channels and in compliance with regulations."

"I think the second method is very safe."

After Rudy chose the second method, Arthur said to the fishing rods and fish specimens placed in the corner of the office that he had been staring at for a long time:
"Does Chief Rudy like fishing?"

He found Arthur looking at the trophies he had displayed. Although he didn't know why the topic suddenly jumped, Rudy still said with some pride:

"Ah, just a little hobby, see that eye-catching largemouth bass? That's the best of my many trophies."

"It's a good hobby. Director Rudy must have tried his best to catch it, right?" Arthur said.

Rudy thought that Arthur was also a fishing enthusiast, so he nodded happily and said endlessly:
"This kind of large blackmouth bass is very common in open flowing waters, but they are very picky and pay attention to both the weather and the bait. The exclusive experience I can tell you is that they prefer rainy days and crayfish to sunny days and bait. , these energetic creatures are like well-trained acrobats. To me, they are both the best friends and the worst enemies. Trying their best to compete with the big fish is the joy of fishing. ?"

Arthur nodded slightly. He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but found that the cigarette and matches had been given to John just now. After touching his pockets and finding nothing, he put his hands in his pockets and leaned back on the chair. Gently rock the chair legs back and forth.

"Director Rudy showed that he really likes fishing. It's different for me. What I like is not the competitive process, but the feeling of victory when catching the fish. Among them, I especially like it. I hate seeing fish decoupled. To tell you the truth, every time a fish decouples, what I think about is not to re-hook the bait and try again, but to take out the explosives and directly kill the escaping fish inside and other fish watching the fun. Let's blow them up together..."

He originally thought that this was Arthur sharing his interesting fishing experience with him, but the more he listened, the more Rudy felt that something was wrong. By the time he heard it, he still didn't understand that Arthur was not talking to him about fishing at all.

"Mr. Morgan, I feel like I might have been woken up in the middle of my sleep, so I'm still a little bit unconscious. Why can't I understand what you're talking about..."

Arthur stopped shaking the chair, and after falling steadily, he chuckled and said:

"How could it be? The coffee in the police station is quite strong. I was still a little tired after a busy night, but after drinking it I felt a lot more awake. Don't think too much. Chief Rudy, if we have a chance, we We can make an appointment to go fishing together, and I might be able to learn a few tricks from you."

"..." Seeing that Arthur was not going to say it clearly, Rudy could only say tentatively:
"Was what I said just now inappropriate?"

After saying these words, Rudy felt that he had lowered his posture so low. Shouldn't Arthur still rub him, right?
Otherwise, Rudy deserves to be able to take over from Lambert. Arthur glanced at Rudy with satisfaction, then stood up and said:
"As I just said, don't think too much. Mr. Matthews will explain the follow-up matters to you. If I have to say what I have in mind, then maybe I hope that Director Rudy can be as good as fishing. , just handle this matter well and don’t let the fish get off the hook, otherwise fish frying is still quite dangerous.”
