As the rain became heavier, Arthur picked up the fainted Russell, dragged him back to the car with difficulty, and put him in the passenger seat. Arthur's body is indeed strong, and the person who faints is dead, and it is not easy to drag a man like Russell back.

Arthur sat down in the cab, closed the door, and breathed a sigh of relief. He was soaked with rain, he looked in the mirror, his hair was on his forehead, and there were blood marks on his left face and right hand, which were cut by Russell's umbrella.

"Shit, what a risk, I used to be very stubborn, what's wrong today." Arthur muttered.

Yu Peng, as a middle-aged man with a family, the most important thing in this society is Gou, after all, there are old and young. When he was young, he watched an old boy, and his mind was full of thinking about finding a machete to smash the field on the street, fighting against the evil forces, and then being favored by a beautiful woman like a little stammer, and living a life of wandering the rivers and lakes together.

When I got older, I occasionally saw a quarrel on the street and avoided walking, for fear that the fight would affect me, and if something happened, what should I do with my wife and children?

It's only been a day since I crossed over, and I've already pointed a gun at the head of a killer, and I've almost lost my life just now, which is really dangerous.

"You still have to spare your life, you have to spare your life, you can't take any more risks."

Arthur touched his neck, and there were blue bruises on it that Russell pinched, this guy really wanted to kill me, if it weren't for that "Mary" in his head......

Arthur now has too many questions in his mind, why did Russell faint when he read the poems, why did he get dizzy just now, who is Mary, what are the meanings of these poems, and what does it have to do with him traveling to this time and space? And what the professions and sequences are on the cards... Oh, take out the 3 of spades and look at it, there are no words on it. Spades also changed back from a shield to a regular playing card.

When the rain was still falling, Arthur put away his cards, found a towel to wipe the water on his body, and then picked up a gun and stabbed Russell, who was still asleep. Seeing that he was still not awake, Arthur opened the passenger window, allowing the raindrops outside the window to splash in and splash on Russell's face, slowly he finally reacted, his fingers began to move, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Arthur closed the car window, stared at Russell to wake up, raised his gun to his temple, and said, "Good morning Russell, are you sleeping well?" Arthur was resentful of Russell having almost strangled himself just now. Just crossed over and was strangled to death? And use an umbrella to destroy my face, Lao Tzu is good at eating with his face?

He had already figured out that since he had torn his face, he had to ask some things, how Tony planned it, and how Luthor died back then, he wanted to know. If Russell didn't change anything from before, he would have to consider shooting him with one shot and finding another place to bury him.

Such a thought appeared in his mind and startled Arthur himself, but then he calmed down, born in such a family and situation, either you die or I die, and he can't be soft-hearted. From the moment he raised the gun, Yu Peng was no longer the same Yu Peng, and Arthur was no longer the same Arthur.

Russell rubbed his face and used his fingers to dig out the part of his mouth where the tooth had been knocked out, and he ignored the muzzle of Arthur's gun aimed at him, and said to himself, "I remember, I am a dead man." ”

Arthur didn't understand what Russell meant, and said, "I know, you fought in the Vietnam War. ”

Arthur's impression of Russell in his mind was that he was a Vietnam veteran, but because of the particularity of the Vietnam War, those veterans did not receive heroic treatment after returning, but were ostracized by American society. Therefore, a considerable number of people have fallen into the underworld and become gangster thugs and accomplices.

Russell shook his head and said, "I mean, I used to be a dead man. In 1975, Saigon, I died in Saigon. ”

Russell's words made Arthur feel a little like pins and needles, if ordinary people heard Russell say this, they would definitely think that Russell was crazy, he was talking nonsense. But Arthur himself is a time-traveler, and Russell's words are not without credibility. Could it be that Russell also crossed over at the moment when he recited the poem?

Arthur's gun still hasn't been put down, "In 1975, the Vietnam War was over, why did you die in Saigon?" ”

Russell said: "Yes, the war is over, everyone is retreating and leaving, but I didn't, I stayed. I stayed. ”

"Why stay?"

"I forgot, I just knew that I was dead, I was shot to death."

"By whom, with what gun?"

"I was killed by a revolver, if I remember correctly."

Russell said he had killed himself with a revolver, and now he was being pointed to the head with another revolver, but he was not afraid at all.

There was silence in the car, and the rain outside the car kept falling, and the crackling sound of the rain hit the wind shield, making the silence in the car even more silent. Arthur's hands holding the gun were a little tired, thinking to himself, how could he encounter such a situation, he said that he was a dead man? No, what if he lied to himself? In order to let their guard down, the people of these gangs will make up any nonsense.

It was Russell who broke the silence, he looked at Arthur and said, "Can you be my godfather?" ”

What surprised Arthur again, in addition to making up nonsense in order to survive, did he start to recognize his father? Who is your godfather, I'm only 23, you're in your 40s, and you still recognize me as your godfather?

"I don't understand what you mean, Russell."

"After I died in 1975, I became a walking corpse, and I don't know how I spent those 20 years. I'm killing, beating, drinking, sleeping... But I don't have a soul. After you made me read that poem, I felt my soul and I found myself, really, Arthur. Would you like to be my godfather? ”

Russell looked at Arthur's eyes, clear as he had done before. Arthur remembers that his eyes were cloudy, cold and hollow, and he was scared. Looking at it now, his eyes are actually very bright.

Arthur slowly withdrew his gun, but the muzzle was still aimed at Russell, nodded, and said, "I do." ”

As soon as this "I-do" came out, Arthur felt that a soul connection, a bridge, and a subtle feeling had been established between himself and Russell - but this TM is not bad love. Arthur was hard to describe in words, but he slowly lowered his gun and pinned it to his waist.

Russell, on the other hand, took Arthur's right hand, raised the back of his hand and touched it lightly on his lips, which was the etiquette of the godson to the godfather.

Arthur withdrew his hand, and the two people who had been alive and dead, suddenly formed a wonderful friendship, and it was a mysterious friendship that surpassed ordinary people.

Russell looked at Arthur with a humble look and said, "Tony is planning to kill you, and he can't wait." On the day of the assassination of Abramo, whether you can kill Abramo or not, Tony is ready to kill you. He was ready for me to do it. ”

Sure enough, once Tony had a murderous intent, he couldn't bear it anymore, and after discussing with Casey and Russell this morning, he decided to kill Arthur with the assassination of Abramo this time anyway. It would be great if Arthur killed Abramo, killing two birds with one stone, and killing people without proof. If you can't kill Abramo, then you can destroy the evidence and clear the question.

At that time, all the property of the Luciano family will belong to Tony, and he will be the real owner of the Luciano family.

Arthur was aware of this, so he was not surprised, and asked, "How did Luthor die, did Tony do it?" ”

Russell shook his head and said, "I don't know, I didn't come to New York when Luthor died, and I don't remember how I came to New York." Ask Casey about this. ”

Arthur had a calm face, he knew that there was a need for a "prince's revenge", and in order to survive in this jungle, he had to turn himself into a beast. With Russell's help, everything will be much easier.

Arthur asks Russell to switch places with him and asks him to drive him to Brooklyn, where he is going to pick up Gina from school.

On the way, Russell asked, "Is the plan to assassinate Abramo still going ahead?" I can make an excuse to delay the plan. ”

Arthur thought for a moment and said, "No, it's still going according to the original plan. Abramo... Abramo..."Arthur took out the photo Russell gave himself, looked at Abramo on it, and felt the need to meet him.

"Does Abramo have any nicknames?" Arthur asked.

"Nickname? The people of Jersey called him Captain because he had been a sailor before. Russell replied.

"Captain?"

- Oh, Captain, my Captain! Our arduous voyage has come to an end,

The boat has crossed all risks, and the victory we fought for has been won.

The harbor is in sight, I hear the bells ringing, the people are cheering,

Watching our ship calmly return home, it looked majestic and heroic.

But, oh, heart! O heart! O heart!

Oh, the bright red blood flows,

On the deck, where lies my captain,

He's fallen, he's dead, he's cooled—

The rain is pouring down, and the heavy rain in March indicates that there will be a cold snap coming, and the weather that was originally a little warmer will become colder.
