The other side.

After Sergeant Pyler leaves the room where Fred was being held, only the lawyer, Fred, and the man who cared for him were left in the room.

The lawyer looked out the window, and the policeman was still standing guard at the door, but the door was closed, and the room should not be heard from the outside.

"Mr. Fred, Pyler is gone." The lawyer whispered.

Although the sound is small, the effect is remarkable.

The "white sculpture with a big head" came to life and got out of bed.

"Did the judge tell him?" Fred opened his eyes and glared at Lawyer Maxwayne.

"No, the matter is too urgent, I came over as soon as I got the news." The lawyer snorted at the guard outside the door.

Fred nodded.

In addition to Payler, many of the members of the police force took their money, and it was not surprising that the lawyer was the first to get the news.

"Fred, you're playing too much this time." When it came to business, the lawyer's expression became serious, "You should trust me, I can help you get that ranch in a more reasonable way." ”

He knows this "ally" of his very well, and he has done a lot of things to rob him by force, and he has not helped him wipe his ass.

But looking at his current miserable situation, he must have hit a nail.

"I don't have to teach me how to do it." Fred had nowhere to vent his anger, "Aren't we still here with you and Mr. Judge?" ”

"I'm not sure if he'll help you again this time, your basket is too big." The lawyer shook his head, "Pyler is not the same as the previous sheriff, he is not so easy to fool. ”

"What?!" Fred angrily rolled up from the bed, but this movement pulled the wound, and he lay back in pain.

These bastards, how much money have they taken from me all these years, and now when they are in trouble, they will hide.

But anger to anger, these words were not spoken, for there was another man in the house who had taken a lot of his money.

This guy still knows to come to see me as soon as possible, and if he runs away again, then he will really be planted this time.

After a brief period of anger and pain, Fred beckoned to the lawyer and motioned for him to come to his bedside.

"Alexander, after you go out, go to the judge first and see if he has any way." Fred said to the lawyer, but his voice was lowered.

"If there's no way the judge can do it, you can help me go ten kilometers west of town and find a guy named Reddy Thomas."

Reddy Thomas's name is notorious near Lincolnshire, and his wanted warrant hangs on the wall outside the door, but because of his power, there is no way to arrest him for the time being.

"Tell him that I and a dozen of my brothers are being held here, and there are dozens of people on my farm who are preparing." Fred continued, "Besides, when it's done, James' ranch, and my ranch in Vale Valley, are his. ”

He lied, but he couldn't tell the lawyer directly that he was close to being wiped out, and that everyone who could move was in this security office.

In that case, it is difficult to say whether the lawyer will help him, and it is difficult to say whether the "brother" who nominally worships him will come to save him or go directly to his ranch to fall into the well.

The lawyer was a little hesitant, he was a little withdrawn, this was not his area of expertise.

"A thousand dollars! I'll give you a thousand dollars when it's over! Fred made a big bet, "You know, I've never broken my word. ”

The lawyer stopped talking, he nodded, picked up his bag, and hurried out the door.

……

Chen Jianqiu thinks this room is okay.

He had been here for several hours, but Sergeant Poller did not immediately make his routine questioning of him, as had been agreed.

Chen Jianqiu sensed that something was wrong, and he was ready to find a way to leave.

It was imperative to get in touch with Shaun and Holmes in the town as soon as possible, as well as anyone else who might be.

However, his door was suddenly opened.

Sergeant Pyler walked in.

"You may be seated, Sheriff." Chen Jianqiu pointed to the chair in the room, and said to the sheriff with a smile.

The sheriff sat down and looked at the harmless Chinese in front of him.

Chen Jianqiu was keenly aware that Paler's state was not simple.

His body was in a state of great alertness, like a gun with a safety bolt.

The upper body is slightly tilted back, a gesture that allows him to pull out the pistol at his waist at any time.

"Relax, sheriff, I don't have a weapon on me." Chen Jianqiu looked at the sheriff with a smile, he didn't continue to say anything, but looked at the sheriff quietly.

Pyler didn't show any special emotion, and he adjusted his sitting position slightly.

"What were you thinking when you killed Fred's men at the sheepfold?" The sheriff asked suddenly.

The sheriff had no direct evidence that Fred's man died from a 40-caliber bullet that came from the direction of the sheepfold.

When I met this Chinese, his clothes were dry, and he said that he had been staying in the warehouse.

But the men who killed Fred's blades were scary in their marksmanship, not to mention the people on Daddy James' farm, who might not even be able to do it themselves.

He had to list the high-value bounty in front of him as the object of suspicion.

Chen Jianqiu stared at the sheriff's eyes, he guessed what the sheriff was thinking, and instead of answering his question directly, he asked another question:

"What were you thinking when you killed Billy?"

What happened between Pyler and Billy was taboo with the James family, but not with others.

On the way back, the brother who smoked a cigar from Chen Jianqiu told Chen Jianqiu all these things like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.

If it were someone else, maybe he would jump up on the spot, step forward and grab Chen Jianqiu's collar, and let him "answer whatever you ask." ”

Or something else to get out of the way.

Pyler didn't, he seemed to want to talk to the wanted man in front of him.

He took a breath and recounted in a very calm tone, "I've known Billy since I was a child, we grew up together, and he even taught me how to use a gun. ”

"You're also in love with his sister." Chen Jianqiu added.

"No, I love them." Pyler said.

Chen Jianqiu didn't sort out the information in this sentence for a while, and Pyler continued.

"A few years ago, we both received a notice of enlistment from the cavalry regiment, and I joined, but he gave up, and at first we kept in touch by letter, but then, only Emily wrote to me."

"Later, I was appointed Sheriff of Lincolnshire, but when I returned, the first task I received was to hunt down Billy."

"In the time I was away, Billy became a gunslinger in order to protect his father's farm, and he was tricked into intervening in the Lincolnshire War, killing many people, including the previous sheriff."

"I found him in a hotel, and he smiled at me, and I hit him in the heart."

Chen Jianqiu listened quietly to what the sheriff had to say, and he was a little curious why Pyler was saying this to him.

"No one can be beyond the order, no matter how many reasons he has, he can't be lawless and misbehaving."

"I'll tell you now, what was going on when I killed Billy." Pyler slowly stood up: "To kill someone is to kill someone." A criminal is a criminal. ”

Chen Jianqiu smiled.

In the American West in 1881, violence and corruption were the eternal themes, and if order and fairness really existed, people like Fred would not have gone unpunished, and they would not have been on the bounty list.

He tilted his head to look at the sheriff, and suddenly felt that this person was pitiful:

"Mr. Sheriff, are you presumption of guilt now?"

Pyler stood up and placed the bounty order that Lynch had handed him on the table:

"Mr. Chen Jianqiu, what you did outside of Lincolnshire has nothing to do with me, but whether you have anything to do with the private fight on the farm, I will find out, and until then, you will still be protected."

He stared at Chen Jianqiu, his gaze pressing: "Don't always think that you are on the side of justice. ”

Chen Jianqiu didn't look at the reward order on the table, he also stared at the sheriff, and the two looked at each other:

"Mr. Sheriff, I have never considered myself on the side of justice, and justice is not defined by you people."

"Then you can do it yourself." The sheriff dropped a word and walked out the door.

But as soon as he stepped out of the door, a gunshot suddenly rang out outside.

Pyler dodged backwards sharply.

A bullet hit where he was standing.
