A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 401 Accident and the Dead

"Who died?"

When Arthur returned from the orphanage to the factory where Eamonn and the others were camped, what he saw was a corpse covered with cloth lying quietly on the ground in front of him.

Everyone seemed very silent, and Arthur didn't see Aemon's figure.

"Are you all mute?"

"Boss, don't be angry, something happened." Eamonn limped out of the room at the back.

Seeing that Aemon was safe and sound, and everyone was so silent, it was easy to guess who died.

"...Where are the Dixon brothers?"

"One is in the house and the other is right in front of you." Eamon said with some shame.

Speaking of this matter, he was also a victim. At that time, Aemon hadn't even finished the stairs, and Finn shot at him. If Finn's marksmanship was not so bad, the bullets drifted everywhere, and now he is lying on the ground It's not necessarily Finn, but Aemon.

After explaining the accident with Arthur, Aemon said:
"Boss, James Dixon is not in very good condition. Do you want to go take a look?"

After seeing his brother die in front of him, it was strange that he was in good condition.

However, it's okay, only one died, and there was another one, so it's not a big problem.

Arthur was concerned about Eamonn's injury again, and then went to the house to find James Dixon who was immersed in grief.

"You must be Mr. Dixon, right?"

"You are?" Jens didn't know Arthur. Although the man who killed his brother told him that he was safe and that they were ordered to rescue him, Jens felt that he was just released from a cage. Brought to another cage, and this time, he also lost his brother.

"It doesn't matter who I am. We received a commission. It was Mr. Trelawney who commissioned our Blackwater River Company to rescue the kidnapped Mr. Dixon. You, first of all, we are very sorry for the death of Mr. Finn Dixon." , but I hope you can understand, after all, I heard that it was Finn who shot our employees first?"

Arthur was smart enough not to reveal his identity, and pushed the entire rescue operation to Trelawny and the Blackwater River Company. The main consideration here was that the Dixon Brothers were most likely to become Babylon Oil, and the two Babylon Oil Fields. The victim of a company's thunderstorm.

Arthur didn't want to be involved.

And when he heard that Arthur was hired by Trelawney to save him, Jens instantly believed Arthur's words. Although he felt sad about his brother's death, when he calmed down and thought about it, it was indeed like As Arthur said, it was indeed Finn who shot at the employee first, and the other party was just a normal defensive counterattack.

"Yes, no matter what, thank you for coming to rescue us, so can you send me back now?"

Jens just wants to go home now, and he doesn't want to care about other things.

"Of course, but before sending you back, Mr. Dixon, I want to know what happened after you were kidnapped, or do you know who kidnapped you?" Arthur asked.

Now, Brydon Vincent has denied being involved in the kidnapping, and then implicated the servant who guarded James. As for this servant, even if he has not run away, he should be 'cleared' by Eamonn and the others. Then a maid named Maria took Arthur to an orphanage. Arthur once again confirmed from the contact person that the person who gave the instructions was Beckman.

Although all the clues seemed to point to Beckman, Arthur still felt strange, as if someone was guiding him.

As for Arthur's question, although Jens Dixon didn't know why Arthur, who just accepted Trelawney's employment, knew this, but his character made him say truthfully:

"I'm sorry, sir, I don't know who ordered them. During the time they were kidnapped and taken away and imprisoned in that manor, except for the guard who delivered the food, we didn't see anyone else, and No one came to talk to me about why they kidnapped us, so I don’t know who kidnapped us." Arthur basically believed that Jens was telling the truth, because Jens could choose not to answer him, but he didn't. It was necessary to lie to deceive himself. After all, his current identity was just the Blackwater River Company personnel hired by Trelawney to rescue him. In Jens' view, they had no interest.

Considering that he could later confirm it from Trelawny, Arthur did not ask any more questions. After a few words of concern for James, Arthur walked out of the room, called Aemon and gave instructions:

"Let the people below clean up and get ready to leave. After sending James Dixon back to Trelawney, you will stay at Trelawny's house."

Aemon thought more than Arthur said. After looking around and seeing no one else, he said:

"Boss, do you need us to watch James Dixon?"

"It's about protection and care. After all, nothing can go wrong in the next few days." Arthur replied calmly.

This time, the short selling that almost overwhelmed Arthur should come to an end.

……

When Arthur and the others took Jens Dixon back to Trelawney's manor in New York, Linda and Trelawney were chatting in the living room.

"Real or false? How did the Van der Linde gang escape then?"

Regarding Arthur's story back then, Linda had already listened to Trelawney's escape from Blackwater Town with great interest.

"I only know the Valentine part of the story later on. If you still want to hear it, you can only ask Arthur yourself."

"Ask me what?" Arthur asked.

Trelawney looked at Arthur who came back and James Dixon who came in with him, and said happily:

"Ah, James, it's so good to see you safe. Where's the Finn?"

Before Jens could answer, Arthur replied:

"Mr. Trelawny, the commission you gave our Blackwater Company has only been completed half way. Eamon and the others rescued James Dixon, but Finn Dixon unfortunately died."

Trelawney is very smart. Hearing what Arthur said, he understood that Arthur didn't want Jens to know his relationship with him, so Trelawney nodded cooperatively, and said a little sadly:

"This is really sad news, James, do you need to go get some rest first?"

"Yes."

James did not refuse, and then at Trelawney's signal, a servant took James to the guest room.

"Arthur, so what exactly is going on?"

"It's complicated. In short, you know that our plan hasn't changed." Arthur said.

To a certain extent, in Trelawney's view, Finn's death may not be a bad thing, since a large part of his previous uneasiness stemmed from Finn, not Jens.
