Chapter 157: In the Name of the Father!

The man outside the door was Cook.

The third-class police officer of the Dird.

According to Arthur's original estimate, the other party should not be here until after Jaime's death - in the meantime, he will need to 'follow the rules'.

And now, it has appeared directly.

'Did anyone give me advice?' ’

Is it the father who is rumored to be on the other side? ’

Arthur guessed, but he was not slow.

It's not about opening the door.

Instead, prepare some necessary props.

In front of 2 Kirk Street, Cook was standing.

The third level of the Duo District police officer who had not slept well all night had a thick tired look on his face, and his heart was full of anxiety and apprehension - yesterday there was a reminder from Maltz that the third level of the Duo District police officer did not return to his house next to the police station of the Duo District, but went directly out of the city and went to his father's farm.

Cook believed it was safer for him to stay with his father, and even if Cook Sr. was hit by an arrow in the knee, he could throw him out with one hand.

What's more, there are 8 strong hired uncles and a dozen hunting dogs on my father's farm.

These uncles are much more reliable than his patrol men.

And those hounds are even more reassuring.

Of course, in addition to that, Cook needs his father to give him an idea.

He could tell that Jaime was finished.

Whether it's Auburn, who was 'betrayed', or the guys that Oban wanted to kill, he wouldn't let Jaime go.

Then here's the problem!

What about him?

He could also be targeted!

Even if it's not very likely.

But in the face of his own life, Cook did not dare to gamble.

With the family business left to him by the elder Cook, Cook was far less radical than other police officers, and he was more accustomed to obtaining benefits in a safe way.

So, at that time, Cook thought of seeking Arthur's help - but he was not sure if Arthur would be able to save himself, and ......

What he needs to give.

Cook told Cook Sr. all his concerns.

Even if the elder Cook is very helpless knowing his son's character, if it weren't for the similarity, the elder Cook would almost think that it was not his own.

The retired bounty hunter put it this way-

'The Credos family?

I've heard about their reputations, but I didn't expect them to be really people from that world, judging from the performance of the other party's young heirs, they should have chosen to escape the world before.

In South Los, such a family is enough to keep you!

And what do you need to pay?

It is to get the position of the sheriff and provide the other party with due convenience.

Remember, only by getting the position of sheriff will you be eligible to give that loyalty to that person!

And it's not that hard!

There is no level 2 police officer in the Duo District, and the level 3 police officer has Ling and another Jaime henchman, and Jaime can't live, and this guy naturally can't live.

As long as Jaime is dead, this guy must die.

At that time, the sheriff's position is yours'

'Don't we need to think again?' ’

'Consider?

Do you have more options?

Or do you think that the people of that world will be as young and talkative as the 'medium'?

You never understand how terrible and cruel people in that world are!

Even when dealing with that 'medium', you have to be in awe - if you can't do anything to that so-called colleague, take an uncle from the farm and he'll take it all out for you.

Cook, my son, you have to remember that I can't protect you for the rest of your life, and when your uncles and I are old and can no longer hold guns or knives, everything here needs you to protect!

Of course, the choice is yours!

If you want to give up, we'll leave here together and choose a place to live again! ’

Cook recalls last night's conversation with his father.

Under the candlelight, the sturdy father in his original memory didn't know when his body was already a little rickety, and although the arms thicker than ordinary people's waists were still staggering, when his father's big hand was patted on the shoulder, he could feel the decline of the strength in it, and the sideburns, I don't know when there will be more gray hair.

Father is old.

It is estimated that in another two years, the horse will not be able to fall easily.

Who else could he rely on then?

Do you want your father to come forward and help you solve everything?

As for leaving?

More unlikely!

Everything starts again, what it takes to pay, Cook knows too well, instead of gambling on the unknown, it is better to go to Arthur to get shelter.

Cook believed what his father said.

Call!

Taking a deep breath, Cook made his final decision.

Therefore, when Arthur opened the door, the third-class police officer of the Dio District said very politely-

"Good morning, Advisor Credos."

"Good morning, Officer Cook."

Arthur smiled in response, and invited him to enter 2 Kirk Street.

After taking his seat in the 'Psychic Hall', the third-class police officer of the Duo District began to deliberate word by word, and said.

"Consultant Credos, what do you think about 10 Clara Street?"

I'll sit here and watch. ’

Arthur said from the bottom of his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be silent.

"Please forgive me for being reckless and rude."

Upon discovering Arthur's silence, the third-class officer of the Priesthood immediately apologized - unlike Wiggins and Maltz's decisiveness, Cook had a sense of dragging his feet.

Even with the decision, this personality still influences the way Cook behaves.

Because, most of the time, Cook habitually asked others to help him make decisions.

What a good father! ’

Arthur could have guessed that in this era, the character was as hesitant as Cook, and he was able to become a third-level police officer in South Los Dorth, what kind of effort did the other party's father put in, and what kind of protection did Cook give - in the eyes of many people, Cook's style of behavior is a representative of easy bullying, especially in the police station where the 'sheriff' coexists with the new law.

Faced with such a cook, Arthur waved his hand.

The young 'medium' whispered—

"What happened at 10 Clara Street was an accident and I didn't want to get involved, so I had to keep my neutrality."

Arthur was very direct about his position.

He knew very well that if Cook was allowed to ask, he might not be able to talk about anything for a day, and even, in the end, he would let the old father of the other party come forward.

The old father on the other side is not as foolish as the other party.

So, Arthur almost made it clear.

Although Cook was a little hesitant in his personality, he was not stupid, and he understood the meaning of Arthur's words.

He subconsciously opened his mouth to ask more about yesterday so that he could make a judgment, but at this moment he thought of his father's conversation with him last night, and also thought of his own determination when he was at the door.

Suddenly, the third-level police officer of the Duo Special Administrative Region gritted his teeth.

"Can I maintain this neutrality as well?

If I choose to join you.

I can swear to you! ”

This third-class police officer of the Priesthood said 'adventurous words' that would have never been possible before.

"I prefer the binding of the contract to the solemnity of the oath—"

Arthur raised his hand.

Immediately, a piece of parchment fell from the bookcase onto the desk.

At the same time, a fountain pen volleyed in front of Cook.

Cook stared at the pen in front of him in a daze, and only after his brain was a little down that he signed his name did he realize what had happened.

That world!

This is the world that my father said it would be!

But before the excited Cook could ask, the parchment flew into the air.

Immediately after, under Cook's gaze, it burned violently.

The flames tumbled, and the parchment dissolved into nothingness.

An invisible force tapped on Cook's brow at this moment.

Not a delusion!

It is a real, tactile click!

"Ahh

Cook exclaimed and jumped out of his chair in fright.

And Arthur, who was sitting in the chair, leaned back slightly, moved his gaze and fell on the face of the third-level police officer of the Duo District with a panicked face, and said with a faint smile-

"The contract is established!"
