235. Shelby: Are we going to see Our Lady? What are the benefits of being a dog

The people in the hall looked blankly, looking at Russell standing at the door with blank eyes, and the police officers ran through the crowd with expressionless faces, like death-seeking messengers.

Originally, Russell wanted to make a good impression on these aristocratic ladies, after all, he was the chief of the Birmingham Police Department, but this group of people didn't give him a chance.

Since he was said three or four times for the first appearance, how will he preside over Birmingham in the future? Mensa saw this situation, and immediately saw a resistant horse boy and killed him directly in public.

Now the nobles and celebrities are all honest, and their mouths are stopped.

But then the atmosphere became deadlocked, Russell didn't plan to chat with them, as long as these people could remember him, that would be enough!

But just as Russell was about to find a couch to sit down, Laito ran down from upstairs, clutching a wad of papers in his hand.

“b… Commissioner Campo, Billy Kempo not only steals illegal arms, he also has dealings with the IRA! ”

There are many meanings of these words.

It can be a business exchange, or it can be an exchange of financial assistance or material support...... If there is a theft of illegal arms in the past, it means that Billy Kempo has given the IRA supplies and even weapons support.

Laito's subordinate rushed in from the door, and he had just finished checking the weapons in the stable.

"Report, Director Campo, Team Leader. The weapons found in the stables matched the model numbers we were looking for, but only a third of them! ”

Russell frowned: "Are you sure?" ”

"Pretty sure!"

"Find all the evidence of Billy Kempo's collusion with the IRA and take all those who have a relationship with him!"

"Yes!"

The officers moved quickly, two groups guarding the staircase and the elevator, leaving four to guard the lobby while the rest rummaged through the building.

Even rummaging under the bed or inside the partition of the wall, Mensa led someone into Kempo's office, found someone to pry open the safe, and swallowed when he saw the stacks of bills inside.

"Put it in the evidence bag and put it in a black cloth bag."

"Yes."

One of them jumped out from behind and said, "Captain, I found a secret door." ”

Mensa walked over and knocked on the switch, and when he opened the secret door, he saw a mountain of guns, ammunition, and two tin boxes containing grenades and explosives.

He waved his hand and asked people to take them all, these are all evidence, evidence that can be handed over!

Downstairs, Russell sat on the couch with a cigar in his mouth and turned to look at a lady on the couch on his left.

This noble lady has black hair and a hair-curdled head, wears an inky coat, wears a necklace around her neck, and looks like a typical English woman, blinking her eyes pitifully and observing Russell.

He looked at it a little and then withdrew his gaze, but he saw that the woman was a little familiar, and he didn't mean anything else.

The nobles and ladies in the hall were very quiet, and some of them stared at Russell's face for a long time, as if they wanted to imprint his appearance on their heads.

And Russell also wants this effect, and if he doesn't impress them when he shows his face for the first time, who can know the majesty of Director Campo.

After Mensa and Laito rummaged for more than half an hour, the police officers began to carry a large amount of evidence, many wooden and iron boxes, containing guns and ammunition, various documents, books, and ledgers......

Russell gave him a cursory glance and asked the officer to move everything to the car. Because there are too many 'exhibits', they occupy a large area, so the police have no place to stay.

The only way to do this was to borrow three cars from Billy Kempo and take the officers back to Birmingham.

Back at the police station, Russell did not put the things in the evidence department, but threw them in the warehouse, and instructed Laito and Mensa to take their trusted officers to count them after they got off duty.

Russell, on the other hand, made a phone call to London.

"I'm Russell Kempo, looking for Mr. Churchill."

"Okay, I'll report." The other party was Churchill's assistant.

Last time at the Conrad Hotel, Russell impressed the assistant, he was the one who could break Churchill's defense, and he got what he wanted from Churchill, and the assistant felt that Russell was not a person to mess with.

It didn't take long for Churchill to pick up the phone, and Russell told him about the day's war.

Churchill was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Billy Kempo is a gang leader, he runs the Camptown Racecourse, he actually steals and hides arms, and he has a relationship with the Irish Republican Army...... Why only part of the arms? What about other munitions? ”

Russell said: "My guess is that Billy Kempo has already disposed of some of the munitions, and the other is that someone or group was involved in the theft with him!" ”

"There's nothing wrong with your analysis, you're off to a good start, what's better than that...... Much better. Do a good job and get all the munitions out in a week. ”

"No problem, Mr. Churchill, there is something that needs your approval."

"You say."

"Billy Kempo's Camptown Racecourse has become ownerless, I want to buy it and make it our own business, I need money in Birmingham and you need money in London......"

"Hahaha... Are you bribing the minister? ”

"No, you have a share in this business, who can guarantee smooth sailing in the official career? Who can guarantee that calm seas won't cause storms? ”

"Complete your task, and I'll make it easy for you to do the rest."

"Okay."

Hanging up, Russell pulled his lips and smiled.

He knew very well that the way he dealt with Churchill should not be too gentle, this thing was originally a radical, and if he could not be understood in a normal way, but in a madman's way it would be much smoother.

After getting off duty, Sergeant Moss didn't leave, he stood at the door and greeted the departing police officers one by one, with a very gentle attitude.

Russell didn't know what the hell he was up to, and just as he was about to leave, Moss caught up.

With a flattering smile on his chubby face, he must have heard about Billy Kempo's death.

"Chief Campo, I want to report something to you."

"Why don't you report working hours anymore?"

Moss shuddered and said, "Director Campo, you were busy at the time......"

"Say."

"There was a murder in the street, the murderer was Tommy's comrade-in-arms of the Shelby family, named Danny, who was mentally ill, and snatched the knife from the owner of the fruit stall on the street and stabbed the stall owner to death, and this person was an Italian."

Russell nodded: "Did the Italians report it?" ”

"Nope."

"Sheriff Moss, are you entertaining me?"

"Nope! Director Campo, I didn't mean that...... I wanted to report to you about the Shelby family, they have offended too many people......"

Russell waved his hand and said, "Do your own thing and don't meddle in it." ”

Sergeant Moss froze in place, he looked at Russell's back, how did he feel that the new director had a big opinion of himself? He didn't seem to have offended Director Campo.

Back home, as soon as he entered the door, Russell heard Adols and Beech telling Ayin and Hilla about their crazy experiences, and stopped bragging when his father returned.

Adolphus and Beech looked at their father expectantly, and when Russell raised his hand and patted them on the shoulder and said well done, they were overjoyed and red with excitement.

For the first time in their lives, they had heard their father's praise.

In fact, the task of the Campo brothers is very simple, that is, to go to the Camptown Racecourse, and then find the path and hiding place, and choose to hide something under the manger, which is also the idea of Adolphus, his mind is very lively, but sometimes too impulsive.

So after Mensa had buried the munitions, he brought back the Campo brothers according to Russell's wishes, otherwise there might be some moths.

At the end of dinner, Russell asked the Campo brothers to find a friend, and explained that they would go to the Birmingham Police Academy with the Campo brothers at that time, which was a great thing, and the Campo brothers were not ready to interfere with how to use their fathers, but just to give them a workout.

In the police warehouse, Mensa and Laito were counting the 'evidence' with a few trusted police officers, including six boxes of grenades and explosives, and piles of documents and letters took up a lot of space, and they did not check the contents of the letters, which had to be found by professionals.

Just as they were about to count the banknotes taken out of the safe, Russell stepped in.

"Chief Campo."

“boss。”

Russell nodded and motioned for them to continue.

In the end, 21,650 pounds were counted, which is a huge amount of money!

Mensa and the others were about to cry with excitement when they checked the money, and it was enough to be brilliant enough to hold so many banknotes in their lifetimes.

"Boss, this money ......"

Russell said: "Mr. Churchill has sent a new task, we need to run our own business, and these are entrepreneurial funds. ”

"What?"

Mensa and the others were stunned and looked at each other.

Russell didn't explain much to them, took the money, and handed it to Mensah for £1,650.

"Give this money to my brother who is on a mission today."

Mensa was stunned for a moment, took the money and said dumbfoundedly: "Is the average score?" ”

"By level."

"Yes!"

Russell then pointed to a pile of documents and told them to seal them up, and then pointed to the firearm and said to send it to the ammunition depot for storage.

Mensa and the others were not immersed in the joy of money, and immediately responded to Russell's order.

They must know who gave it and how it should be distributed!

The night is hazy, and the streets and taverns are talking about Billy Kempo.

His death opened a clear corner of Birmingham's gloomy sky.

Garrison's Tavern.

The three Shelby brothers sat in the box smoking cigarettes with sad faces.

Even the irascible Arthur was quiet at the moment.

"I heard that half of the arms were recovered."

"I didn't expect the arms to be stolen by Kempo!"

"Colley is dead in vain......"

Tommy grabbed the wine glass on the table and poured it into his stomach.

With red eyes, he said, "As soon as we joined forces with the Li family, Kempo died. There are already rumors on the street that Campo is biased towards us......"

"How is that possible? Where would a normal person think of this? ”

Arthur said, "We can't offend Campo, he's a man of status!" ”

"What's next?" John asked.

Tommy sighed, "We're wrestling with the air, and Campo has our lifeline, and the only way is to cooperate." ”

John gritted his teeth and said, "Is that cooperation?" Campo is bullying us! We're fucking razors, being bullied by a uniform, we can't stand it. ”

Arthur seemed to resign himself to his fate, "What if you don't bear it, do you dare to kill Campo?" ”

John's fear of the battle in the woods of the southern suburbs was an indelible shadow over him.

Where is their family, they were beaten by Russell alone, and they didn't even have the courage to resist, it can be said that they knocked out the backbone of the Razor Party, so that they could no longer make waves in front of Russell.

For Russell, there's a technical term for this, it's called a dog.

A good hound is trained by hunters, and Russell is training them, he doesn't need a sharp razor, just an obedient dog is enough.

The Shelby brothers' voices were drowned out by the noise of the drunkards outside, so no one heard their conversation.

Tommy sighed repeatedly, "Campo's ruthlessness made me not react, this is a disaster for the family, God may be on Campo's side......"

"So, are we going to see the Virgin?" Arthur said.

Suddenly, Tommy looked up at Arthur and John, and said, "Danny killed the Italians, and the Italians ......"

"You want to use the Italians against Campo?"

Tommy's gaze darkened.

He just thought about it, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was not good, and he was a director of Campo, so could he still be afraid of Italians?

"What if it's the mafia?"

"Italian mafia?!"

Tommy raised his head and rolled his eyes, and said, "Don't think about it, since Campo mentioned the matter of betting on horse licenses with us, he must want to use us as a horse betting ......"

"What do you think?"

Tommy shook his head and didn't say what he thought, these two brothers are brainless, and Tommy is afraid that if he says his thoughts, the two brothers will pass them on...... At that time, the Shelby family will really become lambs to the slaughter.

"Tomorrow we're going to visit Mr. Campo."

--

The next day, Saturday.

Russell chose to rest today, also to give the Shelby family and the Lee family a chance.

If the two families had brains, they would have understood that Kempo's death was guiding them to the light.

Sure enough, it was past nine o'clock in the morning.

After the children went out together, a car stopped at the entrance of No. 12 Lanpo Street.

Tommy, along with Arthur and John, got out of the car at the same time and knocked on the door.

When they entered the room, they saw Russell watering the flowers with a watering can, and without looking up at them, he pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit as you like." ”

The Shelby brothers were a little nervous, and unlike the last time, this time it was a huge change in identity.

Tommy had long known that Russell had a backstage, so he easily accepted it, but Arthur was awkward.

Thinking of the beating in the woods in the southern suburbs, Arthur wanted to make a crack in his toes and get in.

After watering the flowers, Russell put the watering can aside, turned to light a cigarette and leaned against the windowsill, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Director Campo, we are here to apologize to you, what happened last time was our fault, please forgive me."

"What's the matter?" Russell smirked.

Tommy was stunned, and when he saw that John was about to explain, he quickly motioned for him to stop.

"We're here to listen to you, Director Campo, we'll do whatever you tell us to do in Birmingham in the future, even if it's for us to die, we won't frown."

Hearing this, Tommy didn't frown, but Russell frowned.
