113 Go home
Looking at the time, Rorschach decided to return to Sleepy Town first to see how Shel was doing.
Returning to the tavern attic and glancing at Shel, who was sleeping soundly, Rorschach relieved himself and walked down the attic to the tavern.
It was close to midnight, and there were quite a few guests sitting in the tavern.
Rorschach asked the old black man Quatman for a bottle of beer and sat down somewhere.
Suddenly, Rorschach sees Rebecca appear in the tavern.
She waved at Rorschach and walked over to him.
"Hi, Sheriff."
"Hi, Rebecca."
Rebecca smiled and sat down on the chair next to Rorschach, she was still wearing a black wrap skirt today, and her bumpy figure and delicate face attracted the attention of the tavern. She crossed her legs and smiled:
"Won't you invite me for a drink?"
"Of course, please."
Rorschach smiled and snapped his fingers at Quatman.
Temperman grinned and took the two beers.
Rorschach grabbed a bottle of beer, pushed his thumb open the cap, and handed it to Rebecca.
"Thank you."
Rebecca took the beer and touched Rorschach's bottle, "Cheers." ”
"Cheers."
Rorschach tilted his head to drain the beer, took a breath, put the bottle on the table, and asked curiously:
"Why did you come out so late?"
"Because they're all sleeping."
Rebecca stuck out her tongue and smiled, "Or you won't be able to get out at all." ”
"Is the family so strict?"
Rorschach looked at Rebecca, a little puzzled.
"yes."
Rebecca shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly, "Every day, you can't do that, you can't do that, you have to do this, that." ”
"It's for your own good, too."
Rorschach smiled.
"I don't know ......"
Rebecca sighed, "Sheriff, what was your life like as a child?" ”
"I ...... when I was a kid"
Rorschach took a deep breath, not knowing what to answer.
"Okay."
Rebecca smiled, "It's okay not to say it, it's okay not to say some things." ”
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Sheriff."
Rebecca stared at Rorschach and asked, "Can I ask you a personal question?" ”
Rorschach looked at her beautiful eyes and replied with a smile:
"Yes, but let me finish this bottle first, I'm a little nervous right now."
Rebecca covered her mouth and chuckled:
"How do you get involved with girls? You must have had a lot of girlfriends, right? ”
"I'm not dating."
Rorschach shook his head.
"Never?"
Rebecca looked surprised.
"Have you been on a few dates......"
Rorschach frowned, as if the memories were not good, "But the ending is the same." ”
In fact, due to his work back then, his so-called "date" was a blind date.
Rebecca stretched out her fragrant tongue and licked her lips, and said:
"Someone must have said you're charming, right?"
"Nope."
"Oh! Oh, my God! ”
Rebecca exclaimed, "They don't have a vision! ”
"Not anymore."
Rorschach hurriedly waved his hand, "It's not the same thing. ”
"Okay."
Rebecca stared at Rorschach and suddenly said, "I have to go home." ”
"Okay."
Rorschach nodded, "It's not too early. ”
Rebecca pursed her lips and leaned over, the faint smell of perfume penetrating Rorschach's nostrils.
"Sheriff, aren't you going to take me home?"
She said with some dissatisfaction.
"Sending you?"
"Isn't it dangerous to let a young girl come home alone in the middle of the night?"
"I see......"
Rorschach smiled, stood up, and reached for Rebecca, "I'll take you home." ”
Rebecca shook his hand, got up from her chair, and said mischievously:
"You just need to drop me off at the door, though, and someone will pick me up."
"...... like this"
Rorschach nodded.
Rebecca smiled and walked towards the tavern door.
Rorschach followed behind her, looking at the girl in front of her who was walking and writhing around, and shook her head helplessly.
Walking to the door, Rebecca suddenly turned around and asked:
"Sheriff, are you really not going to send me home?"
"Huh?"
Rorschach paused for a moment, "Didn't someone pick you up?" ”
"Lie to you!"
Rebecca rolled her eyes, looking helpless.
Rorschach looked at her pretty face, not knowing which sentence was true and which was false, and felt more troublesome than a prisoner. Finally he nodded and said:
"Then I'll have to send you home."
"Thank you!"
Rebecca smiled and told Rorschach the address in a small town.
Rorschach did not drive due to drinking, but walked home with Rebecca.
Walking on the streets of the town, all around quietly, neither of them spoke, just walked silently.
Rebecca looked at her toes, suddenly turned her head and smiled:
"Sheriff, what are you thinking?"
"Nothing ......"
"Are you like this most of the time? Or is it because you see me? ”
Rorschach turned his head to look at her and said lightly:
"You're not going to be interested."
"But that doesn't mean I don't want to know."
"I think ......"
Rorschach thought for a moment and said, "You're like a tasty bait. ”
"What does that mean?"
Rebecca smiled and took Rorschach's arm.
"I mean......"
Rorschach turned to look at her, "I'm not sure if I can hold it if I'm dressed like this." ”
Rebecca looked up, stared at Rorschach and asked:
"You mean I'm pretty, right?"
"It doesn't matter what I think."
Rorschach pulled her hand from her arm and smiled, "It's not a date, I'm just sending you home." ”
Rebecca smiled, then nodded, and said nothing.
Rorschach delivered Rebecca to the address she had said he had said, and watched the girl walk through the door before he turned to leave.
Rorschach thought as he walked to the police station.
Three bodies were found in the woods, two of which belonged to the two thugs, but what was the identity of the other body? Who brought this corpse here, and what was his purpose?
Rorschach squinted his eyes, probably able to guess the other party's thoughts, the other party was demonstrating, telling him that the other party knew that he was not the real sheriff, but the other party did not choose the means to report or call the police, so it seems that from the analysis of motives, the most likely thing is that the other party is testing Rorschach, if they can, of course they hope to use this to control Rorschach and let Rorschach follow their instructions.
Who are they? It shouldn't be Pradino, he doesn't have to do such a thing, and it's better for him to report Rorschach. Then most likely it is Garrett, who is more than capable of doing this, but what is his purpose? Against Pradino? It should be more than that, although the enemy of the enemy is a friend, but Rorschach doesn't like Garrett this guy.
However, if Rorschach wants to fully understand Garrett's purpose, it is not unacceptable to be properly hypocritical.
Looking at the bright moon in the sky that was gradually obscured by dark clouds, the corners of Rorschach's mouth hooked, now at this stage, it is necessary to calm down, compare who is more patient, whoever plays the hole cards first, who will lose completely.
