"Excuse me, is this Mr. Leonard's residence?" Miranda, a half-aged among the three women, asked timidly.

Sean noticed that the middle of the three women had half of her head wrapped in gauze, and the remaining half of her face was swollen and deformed.

Her eyes were hollow, she didn't say a word, and she looked like she had nothing to love.

"She was disfigured, and the man had a ring on his hand when he beat her, and the hole left on her face was deep." Sally on the other side said.

"Leonard is dead." Sean said, "You should know. ”

"I'm really sorry I shouldn't have said that, please forgive me." Miranda humbly said, "We know, we knew when the news first came out. ”

"We also know that this house now belongs to Mr. Chen, can we meet him?" She bowed to Sean, "If you can." ”

Sean hesitated, but opened the door and led the three of them to the second floor.

The door to the largest room on the second floor was hidden, and three women, following Sean, walked in.

Facing the door of the room was a large desk, and on either side of the desk, several people were standing.

Only one young man sits, half-leaning back in the chair behind the huge desk, his fingers crossed, resting on his chest.

The room was dimly lit, and the kerosene lamp on the table illuminated half of the young man's face, while the other half was in shadow.

There was no special expression on his face, like water.

Behind his chair, there stood a stunning beauty, with her hands on the back of the chair.

At this time, the eyes of everyone in the room looked at the three women at the door.

Miranda felt a huge pressure on her face, and the hairs on her back stood up, and she was afraid that she would turn around and run away in the next second.

In the end, she still mustered up the courage and asked, "Excuse me, which of you is Mr. Chen?" ”

The young man sitting in the chair spoke, unhurriedly, but clearly: "I am." ”

"These are the three, uh, three women I met during the day." Sean pointed at Miranda and them.

"Dear Mr. Chen, I have heard of your prestige, your justice, generosity and credibility." Mirada placed her hands on her chest as a sign of respect for the young man.

In every town, they are often the most well-informed.

Everything Chen Jianqiu did on the exchange two days ago had already reached their ears.

Not only that, but there are also rumors that this young man surnamed Chen is also related to the previous fall of Fred, but it is just a rumor.

They knew that it would be easier for these people to kill a man than a chicken.

Chen Jianqiu didn't speak.

Seeing that the young man did not interrupt her, Miranda continued: "We are just poor people of humble status, living by selling our bodies. ”

"But the Santa Cruz gang robbed us and your subordinates, and they ruined Elise's appearance and deprived her of hope of survival." She pointed to the unrecognizable woman beside her and said, "We hope that you will do justice for us." ”

Chen Jianqiu still didn't speak, his expression didn't even change a bit, just quietly looked at the three people at the door.

"We, we can pay you." Miranda hurriedly took out some money from a blanket.

These are what they have accumulated, and now they have taken them out.

Not for anything else, just to vent a bad breath for his sisters.

"If it's not enough, you can add these." Sally, who was on the side, hurriedly removed a necklace from her neck.

"Yes, yes, and mine." Miranda also hurriedly took off her necklace as well.

Holding the money and two necklaces in both hands, she knelt down with the two women beside her, begging Chen Jianqiu.

"You and your friend, come to me at night, take some money out, and let me kill for you?" Chen Jianqiu slowly stood up from his chair.

He put his hands in his pockets and stood at his desk, his shadow reflected on the wall, stretched long.

"Ma'am, do you think my friends and I will kill people for money?" Chen Jianqiu turned his head and looked at the three women, his eyes sharp.

"No, no, that's not what I meant, Mr. Chen." Miranda was frightened, she lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Chen Jianqiu's eyes.

There was silence in the room, no one spoke.

"Hmm~ Santa Cruz Gang ......" Chen Jianqiu's fingers rhythmically tapped the desktop of the desk, pacing back and forth in front of the desk.

The three women knelt at the door of the room, and they didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere.

After a while, Chen Jianqiu seemed to suddenly remember that there were three women at the door.

He looked up and waved his hand at them:

"Go back."

Miranda and Sally glanced at each other.

"Please accept this, this is the money we borrowed before, I know that you are the creditor now, please allow us to return these loans, it is an honor." Miranda said.

She still hadn't planned to get up.

Sean took the money from her hand, counted it, and put some of it back into the woman's hand, along with the two necklaces.

"Let's go back." "If the people in this town need help, we will lend a helping hand to them." ”

"We will not be hired to kill, ladies, and I only hope that you will remember that you owe me a favor."

The three women got up from the ground and retreated from the doorway.

After the three women left, Chen Jianqiu's ass leaned against the table,

"Abiot, you've been spending a lot of time in Lincolnshire lately, what is the origin of this Santa Cruz Gang?" Chen Jianqiu asked.

Abiot snorted.

"A gang operating in the town, extortion, nothing to be desired."

"It has only emerged in recent months, and after Pyler's strength has been drastically reduced, he can no longer control these 'moles'."

"How's the gang being formed?"

"There are a bunch of homeless people, thieves, robbers, everything, whites, Mexicans, exiled blacks, and I don't know who the leader is."

Chen Jianqiu nodded, he held his chin in his hand and thought about something.

Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz.

He seemed to have seen the name somewhere, and it wasn't that long ago.

Chen Jianqiu turned around and stopped his gaze on the stack of loan contracts that were placed separately.

He flipped through the contracts one by one, and finally saw the name on the borrower of one of them.

Jose Santa Cruz.

"It seems that we really have an account, and we have to settle it with this brother."

Chen Jianqiu took out the loan contract and put it on the table.

"Let's all go and rest, and tomorrow, we'll visit this Mr. Santa Cruz."

One more, two more later
