243 Antecedents and consequences
Ethan drove the police car in front, and Nora followed with his Dodge Challenger.
Within a few minutes, we arrived at Thompson's residence.
Nora shook her fingers and walked out of the car, looking heartless.
"If it's not offended." Ethan lifted his duty belt: "Actually, I'm curious, why don't you see the way sadness should be in you." ”
"Grief is the most useless emotion." Nora twisted her head, and her eyes were unusually bright:
"Killing the enemy is my greatest tribute to Alex."
Ethan shrugged his shoulders, it was rare for someone to think so openly, and he saved the effort to enlighten her.
Nora looked at the house in front of her and the surroundings of the community, and said with a look of disdain: "I bet you 10,000 dollars, and the hostess inside is a white man. ”
She had heard of this kind of thing for a long time, and the powerful and wealthy members of the clan liked to look for women outside, especially white women.
"If that's your attitude, we'll leave now."
Ethan stopped, frowned, and continued: "
If you want to be a chief, please behave like a chief so that others will bet on you, especially if we need help now. ”
"I'm sorry."
Nora immediately understood what he meant, straightened her clothes, and her expression became serious.
"Very well, keep it like this, and you'll be a good chief."
A town police officer and a black-haired beauty in a leather coat are a strange combination that rings the doorbell and initiates a struggle for power over the Chino tribe.
The door was quickly opened, and a middle-aged Indian man appeared in front of him, with long black hair and ethnic ornaments.
Ethan smiled and held out his hand, "Sorry to bother you, Mr. Thompson. ”
"You're welcome, come in."
Thompson shook hands with Ethan and subconsciously replied.
However, when he saw Nora standing behind Ethan, his expression froze, and he forgot to let go of the hand holding Ethan.
Nora didn't know who he was, and Thompson didn't know Nora.
The daughter of the former chieftain, the sister of the former chief, the princess of the Langcid family, and a model of wanton indiscretion.
Seeing his look of surprise, Nora asked expressionlessly:
"Commissioner Thompson, aren't you welcoming me?"
"No, it won't."
Only then did Thompson react, and quickly let go of Ethan's palm to get out of the way.
Inside the house, it is not as magnificent as imagined, it is all more family furnishings, and there is a huge deer head specimen on the TV.
Ethan walked straight to the couch, and Nora sat down beside him unceremoniously.
Thompson looked at the two people sitting opposite him, and wondered how these two people could come to his house together, but he still asked quietly:
"Need some beer?"
"Good beer, thank you." Watching Thompson walk towards the refrigerator, Ethan asked:
"What about the lady and the child?"
Thompson brought over a few bottles of beer and said apologetically:
"They're out on vacation, I'm sorry, I haven't been able to get a chance to say thank you, last time thanks to you and the policewoman."
Forget about this kind of thing, Ethan didn't take it seriously, and Thompson probably said it in passing.
After a few sips of beer, Thompson was the first to open the topic:
"Nora, when did you come back?"
"Yesterday."
"Please don't be too sad about the chief."
"Thank you." Nora was succinct and to the point.
Ethan put the bottle down: "Nora and I came here this time for Alex's business. ”
Thompson shook his head and spread his hands: "To be honest, I didn't know anything, it happened too suddenly. ”
Nora looked up, "Do you know who did it?" ”
Thompson's outstretched hand to the bottle paused for a moment, not speaking.
Nora chuckled, "Actually, you don't have to say it, I also know it's Procott." ”
"I don't have any evidence here, I didn't lie to you, I really don't know anything." Thompson looked at Ethan with a wry smile.
A smile appeared on the corner of Ethan's mouth, and he reached out to take off the police badge hanging on his body.
Noticing his movements, Thompson cast a puzzled look.
"I'm not a police officer right now." Ethan put the badge in his hand and played with it for a while, then stuffed it back into his pocket: "I'm just Miss Nora's friend now." ”
Nora took over: "I don't need proof, I just need to know that Proctor did it, and I want to avenge Alex." ”
"Forget it."
Thompson heard Nora say that he wanted revenge, and hurriedly put down his wine glass: "Procott's strength is too strong, Nora you can't fight him." ”
"Have you been scared?"
Nora unzipped it and tossed her leather jacket to the armrest of the couch.
She wore only a light gray vest inside, and when she took off her coat, she revealed her proud breasts and two Glock 17Cs hanging from her ribs.
Nora crossed her hands and pulled out two pistols in one fell swoop, a magazine protruding from the hilt indicating its incredible firepower.
She slammed two pistols onto the table in front of her, the muzzles of which were pointed at Thompson.
This was also agreed upon by Ethan and Nora in advance, and Nora's reputation in the tribe has always been unreliable.
Although she had helped the Langcid family out of many troubles, only Alex knew that the credit for Nora had been given to her brother to strengthen his power.
She is a woman, and it is the simplest and most direct way to let others take her words as a thing.
As Ethan expected, the next moment he saw Nora swing his gun, Thompson immediately cheered up.
Nora propped her hands on her lap and tapped her fingers lightly on the handle of the gun:
"The chief was killed, and your reaction was to forget it?"
Although it was embarrassing, Thompson said with a flushed face: "It's not that I didn't think about resisting, but Ethan knows that I almost died myself, and my children." ”
"I can testify to this, Nora, don't get excited."
Ethan hurriedly sang red-faced, although Thompson was not only rebelling against Procott but also Alex at that time, but these can be suppressed and not discussed.
Nora sat up straight, her fingers off the handle of her gun, and continued with a cold face:
"I heard Alex say that you and George Hunt were going to remove him from office, but why did you hear my sister-in-law say today that you got together with him recently?"
Thompson was quiet for a moment and then said, "It's a thing of the past, your father is a respectable man. ”
I don't know what this has to do with her father, but Nora still sits upright, saying that she is listening attentively.
"Under your father's leadership, our tribe built casinos."
Thompson looked at Nora and continued, "But as the Horde expands, we're in a lot of trouble. ”
"He chose to work with Procott to clear the way for us to expand."
