After receiving a joint letter from Achena and the mayor of St. Denis, Pinkerton urgently released Molly O'Shet, who had been held for no reason for many days.

Arthur stained his sister-in-law's light and was also acquitted due to insufficient evidence.

At this time, a full 12 hours had passed since his arrest.

According to the information that Pinkerton inadvertently revealed, Javier and the others successfully escaped from Milton's encirclement, and Arthur breathed a sigh of relief and immediately rushed to Cape Clemmons to check the situation.

Leon only gave him 48 hours, but Pinkerton wasted a quarter of it in vain.

Originally, I planned to go to the Achina Mansion to thank me first, but now that time is pressing, I can only wait and see.

Besides, it doesn't mean much to say thank you, Arthur has to do something practical.

He and Molly hurried to the vicinity of the former lakeside camp, and before the two of them could get closer, they heard Javier, who was in charge of patrolling, ask, "Who is it!" ”

"It's me, and Molly." Arthur replied immediately.

The Mexican came out of the woods where he was hiding: "Miss Ozer, how is she with you?" ”

"It's a long story." Arthur jumped off his horse: "How's Dutch doing?" ”

Javier pondered for a few seconds, and finally said, "It's hard to say, you better go and see for yourself." ”

When Molly heard this, she thought something had happened to Ducky, so she ran to the camp, shedding tears as she ran.

Seeing this, the other two hurriedly followed.

On the shore of the lake, there was a lonely tent, and Daqi, who had already awakened, sat in it with a blue face, next to Mika, who didn't know what to say.

Molly's cry caught the attention of the two.

Dutsy gritted his teeth and said, "Don't let her come." ”

Maika complied, stopping in Molly's path: "The boss needs to rest now, Miss Oschee better not disturb him." ”

But the sharp-eyed Molly has already found the clue: "Where's your arm, Ducky?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the expression of the Idea King was instantly distorted, and he scolded as if he was crazy: "Whoever asked you to come, get out of here!" ”

Molly was frightened and froze in place.

She had never seen a boyfriend in such a state, like a spotted hyena at the end of her rope.

Maika urged viciously: "The boss has spoken, don't get out of here!" ”

Arthur then walked over and blocked Molly, whose face was white with fright.

"Yo-yo-yo, you guys" Mika was about to pour some dirty water on the two of them, but saw Javier standing beside Arthur with an unkind expression, still holding a loaded gun in his hand.

Seeing this, the legendary mouse closed his mouth in a huff.

Arthur pushed it away and walked to the tent, "Are you alright, Ducky?" ”

Daqi stared at his right-hand man with resentful eyes: "I'm so good! ”

"Are you blaming me?" Arthur was so angry that he coughed.

Mika behind him said angrily: "Don't blame you, who is this tuberculosis ghost?" Disappearing for so long for no reason, Ducky missed the best time for treatment and had to amputate his leg to save his life. ”

Javier couldn't listen to it and retorted: "What does it mean to disappear for no reason, if Arthur hadn't led Pinkerton away, the three of us would have died a long time ago." ”

Molly also helped explain: "We were caught by Pinkerton and just released. ”

Arthur knew what to do as soon as he heard her words, and Ducky was very emotionally unstable now, and as long as he mentioned the arrest, he would definitely be suspected of betraying him.

In the end, as expected.

Daqi stood up suddenly, and said word by word: "You guys were caught!?" ”

Maika was going crazy with joy, and was worried about how to clear her name, when someone blew herself up. So he immediately fanned the flames and said: "Look at what I say, there must be someone in the gang who has sent a message to Pinkerton!" ”

Arthur hurriedly advised, "Calm down, Ducky, things are not what you think. ”

"I know it's a bit counterintuitive for Pinkerton to find us so quickly, but is it possible that we've gone too far? We're less careful than the drunkards in town, and we don't need guilt at all. ”

Ducky's eyes flickered, as if to discern the truth of the passage.

It was precisely because of his hesitation that Molly's long-accumulated grievances completely exploded: "You actually doubt me? Why do you dare to doubt me! ”

"I've been with you for so many years, even if I'm on the run, I don't have the slightest complaint."

"I owe you nothing, not at all! And you, do you know how long I've been locked up by Pinkerton? Have you ever remembered me? You've been treating me like air! ”

"I despise you, you damn bastard!"

Seeing that Ducky's face was getting more and more ugly, Javier hurriedly grabbed the excited Molly and motioned for her to stop talking.

Molly still refused: "Since you don't trust me so much, then I'll just go to Pinkerton and tell them you're here." I wish they could kill you! ”

Completely impatient, Ducky was about to pull out his gun, but as soon as he made a move, he remembered that his hand was gone.

This further stimulated his already distorted psyche.

"You want to denounce me? You want to betray me!! ”

"Maika, help me kill her!"

Mika didn't hesitate to pull out her weapon.

In fact, he has always disapproved of the gang feeding so many old and weak women and children, and he may take this opportunity to persuade Daqi to give up that gang.

Arthur naturally couldn't watch his companion being killed: "How dare you! ”

Then he said to Javier, "Get her away and take her to town." ”

When the Mexicans heard this, they carried Molly out of the camp directly.

After the two left, Arthur continued to persuade each other with kind words: "Ducky, you should understand that what she just said was angry, and she didn't really want to denounce you." ”

Ducky ignored him, but he didn't say anything about letting Maika chase him out.

Seeing that the Dotty King had calmed down, Arthur immediately changed the subject, hoping that he would not think about Molly for the time being.

"Pinkerton chased very closely, especially after we attacked Cornwall."

"You have to leave as soon as possible, I'm not talking about Rhodes, not the West, but leaving the country."

"I know I don't have enough money, so I'm going to go to Blackwater."

Ducky, who didn't want to deal with Arthur, instantly came to his senses when he heard Blackwater Town.

"Are you sure? Are you alone? ”

Maika was also eager to try, and said a rare sentence: "If you can get the money back in Blackwater Town, it will definitely be our great hero!" ”

Arthur said very calmly: "Yes, I am alone, you just need to tell me where the money is hidden, and I will have a way to bring it back." ”

His idea was that with the money in Blackwater, everyone would be able to go abroad to buy a piece of land and live a stable life. He himself can leave the gang with peace of mind and go to work for Leon.

"Where is the money hidden?" Ducky's eyes narrowed, and there was a glint called doubt in them.

It can only be said that Arthur's idea is good, but it is a pity that he overlooked one thing.

Ducky is no longer the Ducky who trusted him unconditionally and was full of charisma.

"Blackwater is too dangerous for me to let you go alone, and I need people to do something else."

Arthur subconsciously asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Ducky excitedly replied, "A new plan!" Mika, tell him what you found in Anissberg. ”

Mika picked up: "Cornwall has an agreement with the American military that allows the army to transport all kinds of supplies, including military pay, through his railroad. ”

"Do you know what that means, Arthur?"

"We only need to do this one vote, and we can get more money than Blackwater!"

Arthur looked at Ducky in disbelief: "Are you crazy?" That's military pay! Isn't it enough to provoke Pinkerton, and wants to provoke the army? ”

Maika scoffed, "You are talking more and more like a soft egg." ”

"Shut up!" Arthur went on to say to Dutch: "And, why is it Cornwall again, and we haven't suffered enough under his hands? ”

Ducky suddenly became excited: "Why Cornwall, you ask?" Because he cost me an arm! Isn't that enough? I will never let him go! ”

However, in the next second, he returned to calm, and the calm was terrifying.

"It's not just because of Cornwall, we need time, time to escape. Pinkerton was about to put the rope around my neck, and there had to be some confusion to get them to take their eyes off us. ”

"Do you understand, my good brother? I'm protecting you in my own way! ”

"You can rest assured that everything is in my plan, and we just need to do [Uncle Sam] one last vote and then we can make it out."

Arthur sighed: "Sounds wonderful, but"

Ducky directly interrupted his speech: "Not so much, but, you just have to listen to me." Now, to get things done, to get Charles, Javier, Sean back, we need all the people available. ”

Arthur was tempted to ask John what to do, but Ducky seemed to have forgotten about him.

But in the end, he couldn't hold back and didn't speak.

And about Charles's unilateral departure from the gang, Arthur didn't say anything, just silently left the camp.

He won't do it, and he won't involve anyone else.

He had to go to Blackwater as soon as possible to get the money back, maybe to stop Dutch's crazy thoughts.

Although Ducky was reluctant to name where the money was hidden, Hosea should have known.

Having made up his mind, Arthur first went to the town of Rhodes to find the other gang members.

Javier was there, chatting with everyone, and Molly didn't know where to go.

Arthur informs the members of Ducky's crazy thoughts and warns them not to leave Rhodes in the near future, and that everything will be said when he returns.

Finally, he found Sadie and pleaded:

"You'll have to do me a favor and accompany me to Blackwater."

Sadie was as crisp as ever, and agreed without much thought.

The two men then rushed to St. Denis to find Hosea.

Soon after, Leon's luxurious estate arrived.

It's just that I didn't expect that there was someone who was much faster than Arthur.

Molly, who was supposed to be drinking, was now holding Archina's hand, crying and recounting her tragic experience, and scolding Ducky from time to time.

Achina was also helpless, originally she and Molly were just playing on the spot.

At the beginning, Daqi wanted to have a good relationship with Li Ang, so he asked his lover to get close to his wife and the three sisters, and asked for some useful information by the way.

The three sisters knew that Molly's motives were impure, and they didn't bother to pay attention to her.

Achyna had more city than her daughters, and she patiently fooled Molly for a few days, making her think she was very valued.

I didn't think Molly would take it seriously, especially when Archyna rescued her from Pinkerton, which made her grateful and completely regarded Archyna as a close friend.

When I was wronged, I immediately thought of coming to my wife to cry.

In order to maintain her character, Achena had to receive Molly, and what was even more infuriating was that Leon was still gloating beside her.

Thankfully, Arthur and Sadie came to the door to finally free Archyna.

"Miss Oschee is tired, come and arrange for her to go down and rest."

Molly was surprised at how Arthur had come back here, but before she could ask, she was led away by the enthusiastic servant.

The living room fell silent in an instant.

Archina was in a good mood and asked for Leon with a smile, "Is there anything wrong with the two of you?" ”

Arthur got straight to the point: "Sir, ma'am, I want to find Hosea, I have a question for him." ”

Arcina looked at Leon.

Li Ang closed the book in his hand and said, "Be specific." ”

Arthur did not hesitate to say about the hidden money, because he felt that 150,000 yuan was a huge amount of money for the Fan Gang, but it was completely drizzle for the Leon family.

Leon was still leaning lazily on the sofa: "Got it." ”

"Bayek, contact New York."

Only then did Arthur know that it was no wonder that he hadn't seen Hosea appear for a long time, and that he had been sent to New York.

"Thank you, sir, for your help."

"It's all your own people, you don't need to engage in those empty heads."

Leon instructed the servant to bring coffee to Arthur and Sadie: "You guess you will have to wait, the current telephone is not very good, and our own signal base station has not yet been built. ”

Although the telephone was invented in 1860, it has not yet been popularized in the United States due to technical reasons. However, the Nether Dog is already working on the launch of a communications satellite.

Arthur and Sadie didn't understand what Leon was saying, but they nodded vigorously.

In the end, the two waited for nearly an hour, and Hosea did not wait, but waited for bad news.

The railroad to the U.S. military garrison [Fort Wallace] was blown up by a few unknown people, and what is even more excessive is that the high explosives used to blow up the bridge were the military's own.

Arthur, who heard the news, couldn't sit still for an instant, it was obvious that Ducky and they did it.

He really couldn't understand, could he just be so eager to find death?

This had happened only a few hours after leaving the camp, and if it had been a few days later, Ducky would have dared to assassinate the president.

Li Ang saw his restlessness, and said slowly: "I can help you with the $150,000 first, but the money in Blackwater Town no longer belongs to the Fan Gang from now on." ”

Arthur, who really didn't know how to thank him, almost knelt down and kowtowed.

"Also." Leon got up from the couch: "Take me to Van der Linde and settle your last bit of business." ”

"Ahh Arthur was dumbfounded: "You shouldn't be the plan"

Li Ang patted the number one thug who was worried and reassured: "Don't worry, if I want to kill him, I don't need to come forward in person." ”

"I just wanted to witness something."
