127, the chief inspector's fake death and social death, Grace is waiting for me
At this time, the Shelby family was not a powerful gang in Birmingham, and the families with equal strength were the Gypsy Lee family, the Gold family, and the Italian Shanglet family......
Kempo at Camptown Racecourse has the strength to clear Shelby in one fell swoop, but Kempo is a bit superior in the original plot, and Tommy duels directly with Kempo with the protagonist's aura and kills him.
But Russell wasn't one of them, he had his own style of doing things.
Especially in terms of small and big, playing is even more fancy than Tommy.
This meeting with Tommy at Garrison's Tavern is a complete disruption to Tommy's plans and a disruptive affair.
Leaving the tavern, as soon as he walked out of the gate, he saw Grace standing at the door.
She was wearing a beige coat with wavy blond hair, and her arms were in her arms, as if she was feeling a little cold.
"Where do you live?"
Grace was stunned, "Go to my house?" β
"Or else? Is this the place to talk. β
Grace looked at Russell's face, and she nodded after a moment of confusion: "Okay... You..."
In the end, she still didn't ask.
Her temporary home is in Clearwater Lane, just one street away from Garrison's Tavern.
When you enter the door, you will see an iron bed, as well as a dresser and desk.
When Russell entered, he sat down on the bed, stared at her with a smile, and said, "I'm not going to threaten you, Grace, you're a smart man." Campbell asked you to go undercover to join the Shelby family for the sake of arms, right? β
When Grace heard this, she turned her head and was about to run.
"Campbell killed your father."
ββ¦β¦β
In an instant, Grace's body froze, she slowly turned around, and asked with an incredible expression, "What?" β
"Campbell killed your father with his own hands, this happened in Belfast, your father was not killed by the IRA, but Campbell was trying to steal the credit ......"
ββ¦ No way! β
"Campbell must have asked you to come to Birmingham with an excuse to get revenge, right?"
Grace froze in place.
Russell took a drag on his cigarette and said, "If he hadn't killed your father, why couldn't Campbell find your father's killer?" You know, the two of them are close partners. Together all the time on mission, Campbell watched your father die, he couldn't see the murderer? Instead, he only told you that your father was killed by the IRA? β
Grace's eyes trembled slightly, and her eyes were red and wept.
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, gritted her teeth and said, "What evidence?" β
"Your father was killed by the IRA, and Campbell came up with evidence? Even if he asks you to look at the body and check the bullets in the body...... Have it? No, he didn't dare, because the bullets in your father's body came out of his matching gun! β
Grace shook her head violently, "No, it can't be ......"
"You've believed it, Grace. I used to be a soldier, but now I'm the same as you, and I'm the opposite of Campbell. β
Grace was stunned, "You, who are you?" β
Russell didn't answer, but said, "I'm here to tell you that I'm going to pretend to kill Campbell tonight, and convince Campbell not to do anything to the Shelby family tomorrow." β
"Why?"
Ordinary people can't understand Russell, although he has a lot of information about the plot, but the poor start makes it difficult for him, so he has to complicate things in order to profit from it.
"For the sake of profit. Tonight, I'll come back here, and if you're not on my side, it's best to leave Birmingham tonight, and if you're on my side, just lie on the bed and wait for me. And I'll help you get revenge, and Campbell will definitely die. β
Without waiting for Grace to react, Russell snuffed out his cigarette and got up to leave the room.
--
0:25 a.m.
Campbell's residence.
He was resting on his bed when the window was pried open and a figure came in from the outside.
Russell came to Campbell's bedside and deliberately took out the Colt M1911 and put it on the door of Campbell's head.
Suddenly, Campbell opened his eyes, but instead of acting rashly, he faced Russell's face.
"It's you?!"
He was a little surprised.
Russell said with a serious face, "Tommy Shelby threatened me to kill you, and I had to do it, Mr. Inspector...... I'm so sorry. β
"Wait!"
Campbell said urgently: "Don't shoot, we can talk." If you can enter my room, it means that you are very good! You're holding a Colt's custom-made pistol, which was certainly not captured on the battlefield, but ...... The big guy sent you? β
"You're talking too much......"
"Nope! How Tommy threatens you, I'm the Chief Inspector and can help you out of trouble. β
"He's taking my weakness, my child."
ββ¦β¦ I can send someone to protect them, no...... I can send your child to the police academy, which happens to be enrolled! β
Russell frowned: "But Tommy arranged for my child to go to the Campton Racecourse and give it to Kempo as a hostage, you know how ruthless Kempo ......"
"Billy Kempo? Why not find the big man behind you? β
"He can't take care of it, I'm just a pawn he puts down in his spare time, understand? This is my private matter, not my official business. β
Campbell was very nervous, just now Russell put the cold muzzle of the gun against his head, he was scared into a cold sweat, but he didn't tremble because he was lying flat on the bed.
Why would the experienced Campbell be afraid? Because he has never been on a real battlefield, let alone experienced the treatment of being held to the head by a gun, not to mention that Russell's silent infiltration is simply a ghostly ghost of an ancient castle!
But he found that Russell didn't put his finger on the trigger, which showed that he didn't really want to kill himself.
Campbell calmed down and said cautiously, "What can you do?" β
Russell put down his gun, sat down in the chair next to him, and said, "Mr. Inspector General, you need to fake your death for two weeks. Then introduce me to the big man behind you, Mr. Winston Churchill, Minister of Land and Air...... And I have to be the sheriff of the Birmingham Police Department so I can negotiate with the Shelby family......"
γ
Campbell was stunned, he didn't understand.
"I don't understand."
Russell raised his gun and said, "And now? β
"I'll fake my death for two weeks and give you a sheriff's position."
"Yes, that's it. Mr. Inspector General, did you parachute Birmingham for the lost munitions? β
"......" Campbell was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Russell's expression, he seemed to know something, so he nodded: "Yes." β
"I'll help you find it. But according to the clues I was given, the arms were not in the hands of the Shelbys, but were stolen, and Tommy spread the rumors in order to confuse the police and get the IRA and the Bolsheviks to contact him......"
Campbell said: "So the two rumors that Tommy spread, that the arms are fake, that killing me is real? β
"Yes, it's a pity......"
"And how did Tommy find you?"
"My youngest daughter was taken by a boatman's son of the Shelby family, and the boatman was missing. The Shelby family suspected that I had become a boatman, so they coerced me with their children......"
Campbell shook his head and sighed, "What an unscrupulous family, the notorious Razor!" As long as I'm in Birmingham for a day, the Razors won't have a good day. β
"I believe it. Mr. Chief Inspector, I am so helpless, can you forgive me? β
"Of course, you were just coerced. Besides, your skills are very good, and you are a rare right arm, and from the first time I saw you, I took a fancy to you, otherwise I would not have thought of transferring you to the group. β
Russell nodded seriously and said, "Sir, I will help you find the arms, but only if you need to go to Gary Lane for two weeks." β
"Gary Lane is the territory of the Donals, the Razors won't infiltrate it, you're safe there. In two weeks' time, you'll be able to see a clear Birmingham and the Razors will be gone! β
Campbell looked up at him and said, "That's the only option I have." β
"Yes."
"I hope you didn't lie to me."
"I won't deceive my superiors, and I won't joke with my children's lives."
Campbell put his feet on the ground, changed his clothes in front of Russell, then picked up the gun and pipe on the table and put on his coat.
"My gun."
"It's okay, you're completely free to do it, even if you shoot me with a gun."
Campbell laughed when he heard this: "Haha, of course not, you are very courageous, I admire you." β
Immediately, the two stepped downstairs, and a car was parked downstairs, and Campbell handed the key to Russell.
"Do you know how to drive?"
"Of course, please get in the car."
Campbell had been observing Russell, and when he realized that he really had no intention of killing himself, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he did not draw the matching gun, because Campbell knew very well that he was not Russell's opponent, and he was afraid that Russell had already killed him before he could draw the gun.
Gary Lane.
Also known as Chinatown, it is the exclusive territory of the Chinatown people, who live, trade here.
During the day, you can hear the sound of shouting and singing, and at night you can also hear the gentle voice of the warbler and the swallow.
It's late at night, and there is a guard post at the entrance of the alley.
Two yellow-skinned men in coarse cloth clothes stood at the entrance of the alley, forcing Russell to stop the car.
"What are you two doing?"
Russell said, "My chief wants to stay here for two weeks, and the cost is the same. β
"Sir?"
"Chief Inspector of the Birmingham Police Department!"
The two looked at each other and exclaimed, "Chief Inspector? Welcome...... Please, please enter. I need to go and talk to the host and ask him to arrange your accommodation himself. β
Campbell was satisfied and nodded, "Good." β
In an antique building in Chinatown, full of colorful dyed cloth, where the Tang people had part of their tailoring business, Russell fell in love with a suit, and Mr. Campbell offered it to him out of courtesy.
The person in charge here is surnamed Zhang and is called Zhang Qingquan.
Russell pulled him into a no-man's corner and said, "Arrange a big bed room first, and then find a girl...... The cost is doubled, and my commander is embarrassed, and I, as a subordinate, must relieve my superior's worries. β
When Zhang Qingquan heard this, he immediately understood: "Understood! β
"Prepare the camera again."
"Camera?"
Zhang Qingquan's eyes shrank, "The other party is the chief inspector of Birmingham......"
"You are Tang people, if you don't have his handle, what should you do when he sends the police team to clear you?"
"But our cousin ......"
"Why did he come late at night? I just don't want to get too much attention, and a few of you see him...... Do you understand! β
Zhang Qingquan frowned and thought about it, and nodded: "Okay, the camera will be prepared." β
A double room with a large bed is full of pink yarns, especially the bed sheets and pillowcases.
Campbell frowned visibly at the sight of the environment.
Russell said beside him: "Mr. Chief Inspector, Chinatown is such a lodging environment, you have been wronged for two weeks. β
ββ¦β¦ Good. Campbell muttered.
"And you rest?"
"Tomorrow morning's action, you tell Moss, only catch the Bolsheviks, the others don't move, he knows how to do it. Hold my pipe......"
"Okay."
Russell took his pipe and left the room, while Campbell sighed, took off his clothes, turned off the light, and rested.
Not long after, the door of the room was broken open, and a girl of remarkable figure quietly walked in and climbed into his bed.
"Who?"
"Sir, I'm here to serve you......"
"No, get out!"
The girl ignored it, leaned over and grabbed the horse, and pounced on it with her upper body.
Enraged, Campbell reached out and grabbed the gun under the pillow and put it on the girl's forehead.
"Get out!"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You don't have any bullets in your gun." β
Campbell was stunned, hooked his finger and made a hollow sound.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and four coolly dressed girls walked in and rushed towards the bed.
"Sir, your subordinates did not hesitate to spend their ...... in order to slap you"
Campbell was so uncomfortable that he had to give in.
--
Five minutes later, the blinding light flashed one after another.
This is a teak trichrome camera launched by Kodak in 18, which is in Russell's hand at this time, and Zhang Qingquan is holding a black and white camera in his hand.
The girls all got out of bed when they saw this, but Campbell was dumbfounded.
"You ......"
Before Campbell could finish speaking, Russell stepped forward and slashed him in the neck, instantly fainting.
Zhang Qingquan said: "Help him change into the clothes prepared for Mr. Chief Inspector." β
"Okay."
Girls with stockings, short skirts, wigs, horsewhips, etc...... Gave Campbell to wear on his body.
Russell and Zhang Qingquan changed camera negatives and then took two photos.
After changing the negatives again, Russell walked over and slapped Campbell twice, waking him up.
"...... the"
Kacha!
The light flickered.
Campbell's eyes were pierced, and as he looked down, he caught a glimpse of his clothes.
βwhatοΌβ
He looked up at Russell in disbelief, he never thought this person was so despicable!
"You, what are you going to do?"
"Obviously, Mr. Campbell, we're taking pictures of your hobby. The photographs will be distributed throughout Birmingham tomorrow and delivered to Mr Churchill's desk and even to the King's desk. β
"No, you can't do that! You put it on me, not me......"
Campbell's eyes were distracted, his face was frightened, and he had completely lost the appearance of a superior person.
At the moment, he looks like a lost dog to be slaughtered.
"Calm down, now I'll give you two options."
Russell squinted and smiled, "First, you have to obey me." Second, your photos will be sprinkled all over England! β
