Chapter Ninety-Six: Justice
Chapter Ninety-Six: Justice Barber #Freeman, sat across from Yin Hang, and his four attendants were just outside the door of this room.
"I'm glad you came to me, Mr. Freeman." Yin Hang made an opening remark.
"I think you must know about me, the damn paparazzi in the New York Times are tirelessly writing about my daughter over and over again." Freeman was in a slightly better state after an afternoon break, so he took Mike's advice and changed into a suit.
Yin Hang nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Governor, I feel sorry for your daughter. She was still very young, and that Sisideep ruined her life. ”
At the mention of this subject, the governor immediately became indignant, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Eastwood, for taking this fair view, but I am here to ask for your help. ”
Yin Hang gestured and asked the governor to continue.
"On the ship, you mentioned that you know some people here who can do something special, and I hope you can ask your friends to meet me." Freeman said.
Yin Hang shook his head and said bluntly, "No, Mr. Freeman, they won't see anyone until they figure out what is going on." ”
Freeman frowned tightly and said, "I've been contributing to this country, but look at what this country has done to me?" My daughter is still pitifully lying in the hospital bed, and the dog who almost killed her has been acquitted, you know, Mr. Eastwood, they just awarded us the medical bills"; Speaking of this, the governor slapped the table angrily, shaking the wine in front of him with a "snap". He said hoarsely: "Who wants their stinky money, I want justice." He will be fine on the day the verdict is announced! And I stood in the courtroom like a fool. And that bastard actually smiled at me, and I vowed to get justice for my daughter, justice!! ”!
"What do you want to do?" Yin Hang asked, with his hands on the table.
"I'm going to let him die!!" When Freeman sobbed and screamed these words, Yin Hang felt that he was not like a governor, but more like a very ordinary father who wanted to be treated fairly.
Yin Hang expressed his sadness with his body movements, and then said in a deep voice: "Mr. Freeman, I am also very sad about this happening, but please don't get too excited. ”
Freeman suddenly looked up at Yin Hang and said, "How much money do you want?" ”
Yin Hang immediately frowned after hearing this, and did not hide his disgust at this sentence at all, and said, "Mr. Freeman, I know that you are the governor and I am a businessman, but is this what makes you disrespect me so much?" ”
Freeman still looked at Yin Hang with red eyes and said, "I'll give you whatever you want."
Yin Hang stood up, frowned and looked at the scenery of the dock outside the window, and said calmly in a slightly hoarse voice: "Mr. Freeman, do you really think that I am short of money?" The word businessman has always been associated with profit, but I hope you don't see me that way. I'll be honest, you were talking to me as a father when you were talking about your daughter, and now you're saying to me in the tone of a governor, 'I'll give you whatever you want'; Kindness? Mr. Governor? Am I so unbearable in your eyes? ”
"I don't want to get involved in right and wrong"! After listening to what the young man opposite said, the governor also knew that he was now asking for help, not someone to order, so he took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
Yin Hang turned his head and glanced at him, then sat back in his chair and said, "I know, Mr. Freeman, your life in California is very good, and you are the governor of a state, you have the police and the law as your weapons, but they are not easy to use in New York now, are they?" Remember the thank you I said on the boat? ”
"Yes, Mr. Eastwood, you said, 'You wanted to show me a kindness,' and I accepted the friendship you expressed." The governor said.
Yin Hang immediately agreed loudly: "That's right, Mr. Freeman, it's friendliness and friendship!" ~ I value friendship more than anything else, and if you come to me as a friend, then the crumbs that hurt your daughter will be tormented on the day. The enemy of an honest man like you is my enemy. You don't have to worry about your weapon not being used here, because he's going to be sanctioned just like him! The miscellaneous person who hurt your daughter will be afraid of you. ”
"Friendship"! The governor repeated, then looked up at the young man across from him and said, "Thank you, we'll be good friends, Eastwood." ”
When Yin Hang heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Please don't be polite Freeman, as I said, it is a friendship between us, it is very sacred, as if I will ask you for a small favor in the future, will you refuse?" ”
"Of course not, Eastwood," the governor exclaimed.
"That's right! That's it, you can go back to the hotel now, and I suggest you get a good night's sleep, stay in the hotel, or read the newspaper, because there will be the news you are looking forward to. ”
When the governor left, the whole person looked new in Mike's eyes.
"Mike, from now on, help me buy a local New York newspaper every day. I'm going to see how these bitches write about the future. The governor said to Mike.
"What are you going to do about this?" After the governor and his party left, Sam sat across from Yin Hang and asked.
Yin Hang smiled and said, "Find that Sisidip." And then again. ”
Three days later, a midnight bar.
Although Edison was already a young man at this time, the incandescent lamp had not yet been invented, so the midnight bar used large candlesticks to set off the atmosphere.
This kind of light shines on people's faces, making each other look beautiful, yes, whether it is a man or a woman, after illuminating each other with a candle at midnight, they will feel that each other is beautiful.
Across from Sisideep sat a woman with half of her breasts exposed, and he felt that this woman had struck him like lightning, and he had to sleep with her.
"Hehe" the woman showed an unbridled smile and said, "Sisidip, you are crazy! I don't want to go anywhere in a carriage with you. I'm afraid that I'll end up in the hospital like that poor girl, hehehe."
Her triumphant demeanor really made Yin Hang, who was sitting in the corner of the bar, feel disgusting.
"You'll have sex with me sooner or later, but I'll let you go today," Sisidip said inwardly, drank all the whiskey, and walked out.
It was after midnight, and only this one bar was still open, and all the other shops were closed. As for the police, Sam had already inquired, and only after going to the police station to report the police would those bigwigs be late.
"Borrow two dollars and spend it," Sam said in a hazy tone, and besides, he hated Yin Hang for applying a thick layer of women's stuff to his face.
"What?" Sisidip obviously didn't expect to encounter this, and said in disgust: "Get out of the way, be careful that I beat you ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, Sam jumped out of the alley with his back to the street, and threw Sisitip on his back with a single punch, and he was so unhurried and unhurried that it was astonishing, as if all the time in the world was at his disposal. His fists don't smash like a storm, but in rhythmic slow motion. It was as if with every punch the fist carried the full weight of his body; Every punch goes down, and the skin opens at the place where the punch falls.
It wasn't until the end that Sam felt the kid's throat bone being hit by his own fist, and he didn't stop. And a passerby in the distance on the corner of the street was completely stunned by this scene.
Sam squinted at the corner of the street and ignored it, he didn't think that when he couldn't see the other person's face, the other party could see him clearly, so he still looted Sisidip's watch and money. Then he walked away quickly.
After a while, Yin Hang saw that no one had left the bar, and he estimated that Sam should have finished his work, so he also got up and left the bar in a place where the candlelight could not be seen. Against the wall, the man and woman inside were doing something primitive in the dim candlelight; Yin Hang's face was lit by the candle once as he passed by the door, but the man and woman were obviously still busy with their own business.
When he went out, he glanced at the figure figure that fell in the shadow on the side of the road more than twenty meters on the left, and then turned and walked to the right.
He spared some time before returning to the Dock Hotel.
When he entered the door, he didn't alarm the dozing front desk. Instead, he went straight to his room on the third floor.
Sam was already waiting for him, saying, "It went well"!
Yin Hang nodded and said, "I know, Sam"!
After a while, Yin Hang said, "Go and rest, Sam." ”
Sam had already washed away the thick layer of camouflage, stared at Yin Hang with big eyes, and said, "When are we leaving?" ”
Yin Hang originally wanted to comfort Sam, but he didn't know what to say, and said, "Tomorrow!" Tomorrow we will go back to the west! ”
Sam nodded, got up and walked to his room.
Yin Hang watched Sam leave, and then spread the bed and got in. He had long thought that the governor was not a fool, and he was not as impulsive and confused as he pretended. Yin Hang felt that he had carefully weighed this matter. He was very sincere, but also a little bluffing. He didn't know how to get revenge, but he felt he could help him. His heart was really painful; Finally, just before falling asleep, Yin Hang thought: "Sam did a good job, but he planned it very well!" Just like your old self, if you plan well, things will do better. ”
They got up early and bought their tickets, and although the ship wasn't going to Sacramento, what did it matter, just change ships at the next stop.
The Governor was in his spacious hotel suite in Manhattan, looking at the latest New York Times, which featured a large black-and-white photograph taken with a single-lens reflex camera, Sisidip's face looking horrible, no longer humanoid, and the bone spurs in his neck had come out of the flesh; The fact that the report revolves around the account of an eyewitness who 'saw a man brutally beating Sisidip and taking all his money' is clearly a homicide caused by a robbery. The governor himself has no suspicions.
A week later......
The governor's condolences to Sisidip's family were praised by the local newspaper. The governor said to others: "My daughter has suffered misfortune, and I don't want to see other young people like her." Therefore, some people began to sympathize with his daughter's plight! That's the media!
Although State Assemblyman Matthew #Orlandon publicly offered a $10,000 reward in the newspaper for the arrest of the killer, the police department has never had a clue.
"Mike! Help me book a ticket for tomorrow, and you and I will be back to California tomorrow. The three of you stay here and look after my daughter until my wife comes. The governor, who was at his daughter's bedside, turned his head and said.
"Yes sir!" Mike turned and walked out. He was already the governor's confidant, and because of this, his current status has surpassed the other three. Directly promoted to become the governor's right-hand man, it is not difficult to see from the conversations in the past few days that the governor is going to start to promote himself vigorously!
After buying the ticket, he forcibly suppressed his curiosity, and did not go to the dock hotel alone to see the two people, he was not stupid, he could see what the governor was doing these days, he could straighten his back in front of his daughter's hospital bed. Whatever, hehe, he always has only good, no harm!
Mike thought happily, took the two tickets, and went back to the hotel.
Yin Hang changed the ship and returned to Sacramento, and then took the train to San Bernardino with Sam non-stop, and squeezed the three of them back to town in the same carriage.
Nothing major happened during this time, as can be seen from the telegram Mona and their messages to Yin Hang, who did not let them pick up him and Sam because he felt that he was not needed.
After getting out of the car, he patted Sam on the shoulder and said, "Go back to the mansion first and rest well."
Sam nodded and turned to leave.
And Yin Hang came directly to the office of Mayor Arnold, the town magistrate, knocked on the door and walked in.
"Hey! Clint, why didn't you send a telegram to me when you came back? Arnold said, getting up from behind his desk.
Yin Hang smiled, sat directly opposite him and said, "Arnold, you can go home now, go to Texas." There's no need to rush back. ”
Arnold looked at Yin Hang in surprise and said, "You mean, I don't have to worry about the governor anymore?" Seeing Yin Hang nodding, he continued: "Oh my God! ~You're amazing, Clint!~ Can you tell me how you do that? ”
"I impressed him with sincerity, like I said, Arnold, you can have plenty of time to go to Texas and don't rush back, I guarantee that the mayor position of San Bernardino is no longer suitable for a second person except you!" Yin Hang said.
"Thank you! Clint, I will always remember this friendship! Arnold hugged Yin Hang very excitedly, and after that, he said, "I decided to leave now, I'll go home to see Demi first."
"Okay!" Yin Hang and the mayor of the town came out of the political axe building, and then broke up and headed for the police station, where there is still something to be done!
