Chapter 428
"Don't worry, I fired those shots just now on purpose. This distance should be enough to alert Luoyu and the others."

As he quickly left, Arthur ordered Charles:
"You can take a detour and go back to see what's going on over there in Luoyu, and what exactly these soldiers are here to do. I'll have my men ready waiting for you in Valentine. Do you have any questions?"

"I know." Charles neatly turned around and separated from Arthur.

If helping Luo Yu and the others before was out of consideration for the future, then now, it was for Arthur's own benefit.

Along the way, Arthur did not save his horse power. When he returned to Valentine, the horse was already a little exhausted.

"Good man, thank you for your hard work."

Arthur turned over and dismounted, patted the horse's neck, and then handed it to a police officer standing at the door of the police station.

"Bring me some fodder, and then help me find Carmen."

"Yes, Mr. Morgan."

Although this police officer was recruited after the expansion of the Valentine Police Station, he still recognized Arthur at a glance.

Today's Valentine, no one does not know Arthur.

"Is the Sheriff in there?"

"Here I am."

After Arthur threw a small bundle of tips to the police officer, he opened the door and entered the police station under his surprised gaze.

"Arthur, why do you look so dusty? Where did you come from?"

Malloy is maintaining his shotgun in the house, and in a few days he will take his new mistress hunting.

"Ah, Sheriff Malloy, don't be in a hurry to put the gun away. You wiped it just in time. We may need it later." Arthur said as he sat down on the sofa opposite and rode back to Wa. Lundin, it’s still very tiring.

"Huh? Arthur, what's going on?" Malloy asked with a frown.

The deputy police chief on the side also put down the wanted poster in his hand and looked over.

"Something happened. Generally speaking, I was robbed by a group of soldiers from Fort Wallace." Arthur said calmly.

Even though his tone was calm, what Arthur said made Malloy frown even more and subconsciously opened his mouth.

Arthur was robbed?Or was it robbed by soldiers from Fort Wallace?

Malloy quickly asked nervously:

"How many soldiers have you killed?"

Ah, even though Arthur didn't know why Malloy's first reaction was when he heard about the conflict between himself and others, why did he kill someone?But Arthur still smiled and explained:
"Nothing. I am the only victim. They are all very good. In short, you will send a complaint telegram to Wallaceburg in a while and ask them to cooperate and give an explanation."

"Arthur, are you kidding me? I can't control the garrison at Fort Wallace? And you're not going to tell me that you're going to fight with the army, are you?"

Malloy's shock was understandable. After all, Arthur had just told him that he might need to use his gun later. However, for Malloy, having to fight a war at such an old age was really a big deal. …

In response, Arthur just nodded and said:
"Don't worry, I won't let you actually do anything. I just want an explanation. Everything will be fine, maybe?"

perhaps?Malloy shook his head crazily and said:
"You can send telegrams and ask for explanations. I'm going to put this gun away right away. Don't take me with you for such dangerous things. I still want to live for two more years? I haven't spent so much money yet??"

"Haha." Originally, Arthur just saw Malloy cleaning his gun and made a casual joke.

As for being robbed, it was just an excuse. On the one hand, the team leader must have remembered Arthur's name from the previous conflict. With such an excuse, it would be easier to use when dealing with him later. On the other hand, Fei Colonel Favors is not someone Arthur can meet if he wants to, and if Arthur remembers correctly, Cornwall and Colonel Favors seem to have a good cooperative relationship.

"Okay, I'm just teasing you. Go ahead and send the telegram. I'm waiting for you, so don't worry about me."

After Arthur finished speaking, he took out his cigarette case and smoked a cigarette, waiting for Carmen to be found, while Malloy reluctantly went to send a questioning telegram.

"Boss, I'm here." "Oh, Carmen, have you eaten?" Arthur said with a cigarette in his mouth.

Carmen nodded. He had just come out from home to eat.

"Is this alive?"

"That's right. Go to the tar factory and find out if Leviticus Cornwall has been there lately."

I thought Arthur was going to explain the work related to the Indians, but unexpectedly Arthur asked him to go explore Cornwall. Carmen asked curiously:

"Huh? Didn't you go to the Wapiti Reservation? How come you have something to do with Cornwall?"

Arthur had not thought of Cornwall at first, but he had just thought of the connection between Colonel Favors and Cornwall, and that the Cornwall Coal Tar Factory was one of the few assets that was not mortgaged by Cornwall. He just temporarily gave up his original plan and came up with a new idea.

"Well, it sounds very complicated. Don't use your brain. Just do as you are told. Then, if you determine where Cornwall is and kill him, a few people will be watching. I will keep track of his movements at all times. Understand ?"

"understood."

……

"Ok?"

Holding the telegram in his hand and seeing the contents, Colonel Favors called his sergeant major in confusion.

"What the hell is this??"

The sergeant major also frowned after taking the telegram from Favors and reading it.

"Robbery? Isn't this blatant slander?"

Although Favors thought so, the victim mentioned above made him very troubled.

"Did you see the end? Arthur Morgan, do you know who Arthur Morgan is?"

"..." The sergeant major was silent. Why did he know who Arthur Morgan was?
Seeing the silence of the sergeant major, Favors also knew that what he had just asked was completely unnecessary. Neither the officers nor the soldiers under him obviously cared about any of this.

"It's okay if we don't know each other. In short, this will be a problem. I remember that the only one we have outside now is a team on a mission, right? Are they back?"

The sergeant major shook his head and said:

"No, but logically speaking, it's almost time to come back. I just went to find trouble with those red-skinned guys. Maybe it was delayed a little bit because of the rain before."

"Okay, when they come back, let their team leader come to see me immediately."

Seeing that Favors had finished what he wanted to say, the sergeant major mentioned another matter that he had originally planned to report:

"Sir, I just have something to report to you."

"Say."

"The aid and payment Cornwall promised us should have been delivered yesterday, but we have not received it until now."

This assistance and remuneration were previously promised by Cornwall to Favors as a condition for his help in driving out the Wapiti Indians and as a prerequisite for certain cooperation that I am not in a hurry to elaborate on.

Now that Cornwall himself is in trouble, he naturally 'forgot' the promised money and supplies.

However, Cornwall can forget that Colonel Favors will not treat it as if it is not the case.

After listening to what the sergeant major said, Favors said angrily:

"Send a telegram immediately. Forget it, send someone directly to the coal tar factory to question him face to face!"
