Chapter 43: Hourglass! (Ask for follow-up ~ ask for support ~)
Wheels, wheels.
The horse-drawn carriage ran over the waterlogged road, splashing the water, so that the passers-by who could not avoid it were drenched in sewage.
The foul-smelling sewage mixed with feces naturally attracted the angry eyes of passers-by, and when the curses were about to exit, they immediately died down when they saw the badge on the carriage.
The carriage of the police station!
Passers-by, who knew the meaning of this badge, shut up one after another, bowed their heads and continued on their way.
Dirty clothes are washed and cleaned.
But the broken bones, if they are connected, also have to be disabled.
The coachman smiled maliciously and cheerfully.
The other party is not a police officer, just a patrol officer.
But at this time, the other party felt that he had more status than the police officer.
Würth, who was sitting in the carriage, of course, knew what was going on.
But the sheriff didn't care.
He didn't care about the patrolmen, let alone civilians of lower status.
In the eyes of the sheriff, these civilians are just consumables for him to create wealth.
The people he really cared about, except for the few guys at the same level as him, the entire Nanlos was only a very small part.
And the latter, basically, will not be touched.
Because, the Count of Nanlos lived in a simple place, and the nobles of Nanlos also admired this ethos.
There was even a lord who, in order to curry favor with the earl, even announced the retirement of the entire family.
Of course, this is a pretense in Würth's view.
The whole family is in retreat.
But the family had a manor on the outskirts of South Los, with a wine cellar, a mill, a sweet well, and nearly 16 hectares of farms outside the manor, not to mention that the head hunter of the family could go into the forest with his servants to hunt at will.
It's a small country.
That lord became king.
If it were him, he would be willing to stay in it.
And in South Los, there are not a few such nobles.
'When can I become such a person?' ’
Würth sat in the carriage and fantasized.
The sheriff of the Shire certainly wasn't his end.
Seriously, it will be his starting point.
This is the starting point for 'knighthood', and then, being rewarded by the earl, to become a true nobleman - he will also own a manor, a farm, a hunting garden, and even a true fief like those lords.
The thought of this brings a smile to Würth's face
But then, the smile became gloomy.
In order to get the position of Sheriff of the Shire District, he has already paid too much, and he has long been in a state that cannot be defeated, and now that Otto's death has made him lose a chip, the remaining few guys will definitely have ideas again, especially the two remaining old guys in the docklands.
He had seen the greed of those two.
And by tomorrow morning at the latest, when the news of Otto's death reached the ears of the two, he would have to bled again.
To make matters worse, he didn't have the cash to go to.
In other words, he needs to give his property to the two of them in exchange.
The thought of losing at least one cargo ship made Würth grit his teeth, and then, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
"Insatiable guy!"
Because, again, he thought of the two sheriffs in the old and new towns and the bastard in the Duo District.
Two sheriffs in the old and new towns, another shop will be lost!
As for the Diocular District?
"Sarah, you won't blame me, will you?"
Würth muttered softly to himself.
He hoped that his lover would help him 'invite' the sheriff of the District of the Priesthood, who had told him that he was interested in his lover.
He hopes that this interest will last a little longer.
At least until he gets the position of Sheriff of the Shire.
"The sheriff has arrived!"
The patrolman who was driving turned around and jumped out of the car, first holding up an umbrella before opening the car door.
Garden Street is another middle-class neighborhood near West Merk Boulevard, which is longer and larger than Kirk Street, which is less than 200 meters long.
Naturally, the house price is cheaper.
However, the house where Sarah lives is rented.
As for buying?
No kidding, Würth wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
For Würth, Sarah is just a toy to relax.
However, when he needed the toy to help, Würth was still quite attentive, he first tidied up his appearance, and then touched the jewelry box in his pocket.
Inside is a ring set with crystals.
Sarah had begged him for a long time before, and this time he let the other party get his wish, which was regarded as a reward, and the other party must not let him down.
With a thought in his heart, the sheriff stepped out of the carriage and walked towards the two-story building in his memory.
At this moment, the sky has already darkened, and the rain is falling again, making the already dim vision even darker.
Even the streets where the middle class lived lacked lighting, which slowed down Würth.
'I've heard that there are already gas lamps in the inner bay that can light up the streets, and I don't know when there will be one in South Los . ’
Würth thought as he took the umbrella and refused to follow the patrolman.
He didn't want more people to see Sarah.
It will be much easier for him to deal with Sarah later.
"Sheriff, do you need me to wait for you?"
The patrolman asked flatteringly.
"Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, you come to pick me up!"
After thinking for a moment, Würth said.
He's going back to the docks tomorrow, and walking is not an option without horses.
"Okay, Sheriff!"
The patrolman bowed and walked towards the carriage.
Würth turned around and walked up the steps.
Neither of them noticed, and the two spiders just glanced at the corner and landed straight on Würth.
Ding, ding!
In the doorbell, when the girl found out that it was her lover who arrived, she couldn't wait to open the door with joy on her face.
Würth smiled cooperatively, and in the light of the lights in the room, this smile seemed warm and charming to the girl.
The girl hugged Würth, and the two walked into the room.
Neither of them noticed that two uninvited guests broke in, and as the lights lit up, the two uninvited guests quickly drilled into Würth's pockets and wigs.
A flickering light illuminates the unique pattern on the spider's body.
That's—
Hourglass.
Patterns that record the passage of time.
At this moment, it is like a countdown to life.
Moments later, there were sounds of quarrels, slaps, cries, and broken vases from the room.
When the argument sounds, Würth's voice is high-pitched.
At the sound of the slap, Würth raised his arm.
When crying, the girl's voice was full of grievances.
Würth exhaled in pain as the vase cracked.
Then, there was no sound.
When the sound came again, the girl had already changed her clothes and hurried out with a suitcase, and even panicked so much that the door was not closed.
Arthur, who was standing in the shadows, looked at Würth in the room in a pool of blood and raised his hand.
The two black widows were captured.
This is one of the props left by old Charlie, and it is rare.
Arthur didn't want to be lost.
After placing the two Black Widows in a special storage box, Arthur was ready to leave, without even looking at Würth.
Bit by two black widows more than once, and got a vase of headshots.
The other party is dead.
It can be said that the plan was unexpectedly completed smoothly.
He needed to thank the girl for making the whole process so much easier and making the outcome more favorable to him.
Subconsciously, Arthur looked at the girl's back and said secretly in his heart.
'All the gifts of fate have already been secretly marked with a price, I wish you ...... Well?! ’
