Chapter 369: Edith is blackmailed
"On the way, I heard Ethan and his men say that he had a cowboy under him to participate in a bull riding competition," said Wilhelmina. I'm going to keep an eye on him and wait for him to come out so I can tell him the results. ”
Edith Roosevelt looked at the newly sent guards hidden around him, and said speechlessly, "I'm afraid you don't even know who that cowboy is, do you?" ”
This woman is afraid that she will be carried away by love, this kind of insignificant dedication, will Zhao Chuanxin's character be taken to heart?
Wilhelmina disagreed: "I vaguely remember the name, that cowboy is called William Hope." It's okay, if you can't see it, you should come to play. ”
At this time, a well-dressed and suave man passed by.
When he heard the name William Hope, he couldn't help but look at William Mina.
I can't see it, I can't take my eyes off it.
Edwardian empire-style high-waisted skirt, black gauze large-brimmed hat, exquisite silk shawl, with Wilhelmina's slightly chubby figure, fair skin, and upright and delicate facial features, as well as that noble and a little silly temperament, it is really amazing.
He couldn't help but step forward and accosted: "Two ladies, my name is Grenville Harper, and I am a banker. You were talking about William Hope, I know that he has been riding bulls for several days on end, but has never been able to win a prize. ”
The two women were stunned, this thing came out to find a sense of existence, right?
Grenville Harper was blonde, well-groomed, handsome, and seemed to be very talkative.
This man is a well-known banker and social expert in New York, who often organizes and participates in various social events and sings every night.
His skin is pale, almost transparent, and it is evident that he does not spend much time in the sun.
But this skin color, like the vampire that was popular in later film and television dramas, added a bit of mysterious charm to him.
William Minna let out a faint "oh": "William Hope is on the field now?" ”
Shaking his head, Grenville Harper said, "He's not going to play until the last minute, and a lot of the crowd is coming for him." The organizer was very smart, and when he saw that he had repeatedly lost and fought repeatedly, he let him finale. ”
Soon, Wilhelmina was again attracted by the shooting performance on the field.
Because in the field is a woman in a denim costume, holding a mirror and aiming, the muzzle of the gun is facing back, and shooting at the target.
Bang!
With this angle and aiming method, it was able to hit the bull's-eye accurately.
The audience immediately applauded.
Because it was a female performance, Wilhelmina felt more immersed, and she said excitedly: "Madam, this lady's marksmanship is incredible, and in our Netherlands, only the most seasoned hunters can match it." ”
Grenville Harper, who did not leave, hurriedly interjected with a shy face: "This is the actress with the best shooting skills in the Mad Bull Bill Wild West performance troupe." ”
Charles Baker, who was not far away, didn't care about the wind and snow, but his eyes narrowed when he heard Wilhelmina mention "we are the Netherlands".
He quietly retreated from the crowd and went to gather the nearest newspaper, where he saw the news of the Queen of the Netherlands' visit to the White House.
A series of events, faintly forming a vein, were clearly visible in his mind.
I'm Cao ...... What a bonus!
The Rockefeller consortium is so bold that it dares to provoke the Queen of the Netherlands?
Soon, he figured out the cause and effect, and understood why Andrew Miller and these mercenaries made such a big noise, and the upper echelons tried their best to help cover it up.
I see.
It's just that who is the middle-aged woman who is following the Queen of the Netherlands?
A bold plan that quickly took shape in his mind.
At night, he squatted inside the Waldorf Hotel.
When Wilhelmina and Edith Roosevelt returned, he found that the stinky little white face had followed the hotel.
This made Charles Baker frown.
This doggy thing that's in the way!
Profit is dazed, money is obsessed, and Charles Baker can't care so much.
He stepped forward and stopped the three of them.
Edith Roosevelt alertly pulled William Mina back, and behind her, there was their guard, and she was not too afraid.
Grenville Harper stepped forward with righteousness: "Sir, what do you want to do?" This is the Waldorf Hotel, not a place where you can get into trouble. ”
Charles Baker pulled him away: "Get out of here, I have something to say to that lady." ”
Grenville Harper is a little white-faced, powerless.
But Charles Baker is an old bastard, who travels between black and white all year round, and easily pushes him to the ground.
Suddenly, he saw the shadowy guards in the corridor of the hotel.
Knowing that he couldn't come nonsense, he said eagerly: "This lady, do you remember what happened to Kurdeks?" ”
Edith Roosevelt frowned, waved his hand back, and whispered, "What do you know?" What do you want to do? ”
Seeing her cautious appearance, Charles Baker was even more sure of his reasoning.
He bluffed, "Madam, I know who you are. ”
In fact, he only guessed Wilhelmina's identity.
Edith Roosevelt was even more displeased: "So what? ”
"Madame, what is the news trying to hide? Madame must also be a friend of the Rockefeller family. Hehe, I have an account to settle with my wife. ”
He mistook Edith Roosevelt for a lobbyist hired by the Rockefeller family to reach a private settlement with the Queen of the Netherlands.
In his opinion, when the Rockefellers violently seized land for their own interests, they inadvertently provoked the Queen of the Netherlands. For John Rockefeller Jr., this is tantamount to a bolt from the blue, and it will definitely come at a big price.
And this incident just made him find out, so don't you extort a sum of money and get some benefits from it?
The Rockefeller family, that's going to collapse when you fart.
Edith Roosevelt looked at Charles Baker in shock.
One is because he misunderstood, and the other is that he feels incredible, and the blackmail is all blackmailed to her, the first lady?
She asked with a calm face, "Who are you?" ”
If she's just a scoundrel on the streets, then she has a way to deal with him.
If it's a private detective or something, then just take some money and send it away.
But Charles Baker felt that Rockefeller knew him, and he didn't need to hide it, so he said proudly: "I'm a police detective, Charles Baker, and if Mrs. Rockefeller's secretary Ricky inquires, she will know what kind of person I am." I have to remind you that my connections are very strong. ”
He bites the words "connections are very strong" very hard.
Edith Roosevelt's face finally changed.
If it was the identity she had guessed before, it would be fine.
Charles Baker was the only one who threatened her in his official capacity, which made her find it difficult to deal with.
If this goods are shouted everywhere and scandals spread, then all the efforts made these days will be in vain.
One is the reputation of the country, and the other is the future of the husband.
I can't help but pay attention to her.
And Charles Baker's identity, she can't give money.
If this is known to the outside world, she spends money to bribe a police detective to keep secrets, and the consequences are even more unimaginable.
Seeing her hesitation, Charles Baker sneered: "I don't urge Madame, if Madame has figured it out, you can come to me and say goodbye!" ”
With that, he left.
Edith Roosevelt was tempted to ask the Guards to take him down, but eventually gave up.
In many things, her identity has made her shackled.
Who is good at handling this kind of thing?
Inexplicably, Edith Roosevelt had a figure of Zhao Chuanxin in his mind.
When it comes to bastards, who could be more bastards than him?
Only then did Grenville Harper step forward and asked with concern, "Madam, are you alright?" ”
This little white face stalked them, annoying them enough.
Before, etiquette could be maintained, but now Edith Roosevelt was upset and waved his hand: "Your Excellency, let's go back." ”
With that, he gave the guards a look, and the guards stepped forward to stop Grenville Harper.
This product is very thick-skinned, his eyes rolled, and he did not leave, but went to the front desk to open a nearby room and stayed directly in the hotel.
……
When the next day, the prisoners were ventilated, and the stench had dissipated.
But the prisoners found that the grass that had been watered yesterday had doubled in height overnight, with fat stems and thick leaves, and it was waving in the wind.
This is not something that has been dug up and replanted, because the soil is still the same as before.
"How is this done?"
"Is it really the blessing of the god of the night pot?"
This era, in a way, is inherently ignorant.
To treat mental and mental illness, it is necessary to dig out the anterior lobe, and you can imagine how crazy it is.
Zhao Chuanxin pointed at Andrew Miller: "It seems that the priest's prayer has worked." Praise the god of the nightpot, who must have heard the call of his people. ”
"Scavenger, I'm going to join the Stinky Society!"
It turned out to be the leader of the Jewish gang who spoke.
This is the first gang to join the Stinky Society, causing a commotion.
"Crazy?"
"Haven't these damn money-playing Sini always been careful? What's wrong this time? ”
Sheeny, that's a slurious term for Jews.
The defection of the Jewish gang caught many gangs by surprise.
Some Asians, Africans, Greeks and Scandinavians on the fringes of prison have chosen to take sides.
Seeing that Rausch Midnight Jurd, more and more inflated, the Italian Brotherhood and the Irish Gang began to fear.
They are the biggest gang here.
But in just a few days, any of their teams alone have been crushed by the smell in terms of numbers.
This does not bode well.
As Zhao Chuanxin baptized these people, Italians and Irish actually got together and whispered together.
After Zhao Chuanxin completed the baptismal ceremony, he pointed to them: "In the future, we want peace in Xinxin Prison." If there's a dispute, come to Godfather Andrew Miller and sit down and talk. Any dispute that is not mediated by a priest is regarded as a provocation to the Stinky Society, not to be taken by surprise! ”
Neither the Italians nor the Irish spoke.
Not speaking is resisting.
Lao Tzu's affairs, why are you meddling?
Zhao Chuanxin saw that they didn't speak, just smiled and didn't say anything.
Words are placed here, and see how they behave.
When the Italians and Irish were nervous, a prison guard hurriedly came and said to Zhao Chuanxin: "Sir, a lady has come to visit the prison......
