Red Dead Redemption Dawn - Chapter 473
,!
John, who left the Forest of Clear Water Manor, headed towards Alisa’s manor with a clear goal.
Visiting Alisa alone in the middle of the night always made John feel a little weird, oh~ Ofina told him to go back and rest.
Because the content of his conversation with Alisa was not suitable for Ofina, and of course the content of the conversation with Mattley just now was not suitable for her, so she waited outside after John entered the study, and saw her when John came out Dozing off.
So simply let her go back to the villa to rest.
John came to the gate of the manor to explain his purpose. The guard saw that he was alone, and his eyes were a little strange. Fortunately, one of the guards remembered him.
“Mr. Wick.” The guard called out his last name.
“Hey~ I have something to do with Mrs. Alisa, can I ask you to go in and report?” John said politely to the guard.
“Of course, please wait a moment, I’m going to explain the situation to the butler.” The guard was also quite polite.
“thanks.”
He lit a cigarette at the door and gave one to each of the guards. Because of the previous incident, the guards did not refuse. Moyo waited for ten minutes before he was invited in.
All the way across the courtyard to Alisa’s study, Alisa sat on the sofa elegantly in a satin pajamas, the housekeeper poured her and John a cup of coffee each, Alisa also lit a cigarette for herself.
I have to say that Alisa has an excellent figure, with a petite frame but a slender figure, and it is that kind of slender and sensual.
She didn’t wear makeup, but had a plain face. Compared with the bright and beautiful after makeup, she now looks elegant with light makeup.
From John’s point of view, she was very beautiful, so he looked at it for a long time.
“Admiring enough?” Alisa asked after taking a puff of a thin cigarette.
“Oh~ Forgive my impoliteness, sorry, ma’am, you always let people get caught up in it unknowingly and without realizing it.” John said awkwardly.
“It seems that I’m not as old as I thought. Well, what is John looking for me this time?” Alyssa asked John’s purpose generously.
“Matley agrees to destroy all relevant documents, and from now on, business will be business, politics will be politics, and the two will not interfere with each other.”
Alisa nodded, and then said, “His conditions?”
“He’s going to succeed Bronte at the head of the Mafia.”
“Is he at a disadvantage now? According to me, isn’t he the only one that the gangsters and smugglers know?” Alyssa was a little surprised.
Apparently Alisa didn’t pay much attention to the Mafia, and in her perception, Mattley was indeed the only candidate.
“They don’t think so internally. He is indeed at a disadvantage. Those who compete with him have obvious advantages.” John Mohu introduced Mattley’s situation.
“Then how do you plan to help him? Get rid of his competitors?” Alisa asked curiously.
“This is indeed a simple and effective method, but he doesn’t want this. He just needs to help him win the election, but he doesn’t want anyone to have an accident.” John explained Mattley’s special request.
“His competitor is actually a legitimate businessman who controls three gangs. There are eighty people in the three gangs, and he himself has more than a dozen subordinates.”
“It sounds very capable, how do you plan to help?” Alisa asked curiously.
“I’m thinking about it, but since he’s a legitimate businessman, I think it’s better to use the law to deal with him.” John thought for a long time on the way here, and felt that the things that Henry couldn’t handle had to be the law.
“To deal with him, I may need a temporary status, a legally controlled status for a week or two. After dealing with Henry’s forces, the power will be taken back.” After finishing speaking, he looked at Alisa and asked, “Can it be done?” ?”
“Temporary sheriff?” Alisa asked uncertainly.
“Almost, for example, a district sheriff, if he has legal arrest status and power, he can’t be too low.” John said.
“Anyone from that district is fine?” Alisa asked with a somewhat inexplicable expression.
“It’s all right. I’m just in charge of dealing with his power temporarily. Let the chief of the police station cooperate with those police chiefs so that I can call up some necessary information and it will be done soon.” John said indifferently.
“Well, that’s good. You can go back first, and I will reply to you at noon tomorrow.” Alisa said with a bright smile.
“Well, I’ll see Mrs. Alisa tomorrow.” John politely got up and saluted, and then left the manor alone.
“May I make an appointment with Chief Gattuso of the police station tomorrow?” the butler said to Alisa after John left.
“Make an appointment with all the congressmen and high-ranking officials who have been troubled by Bronte, and prepare the carriage. I’m going to meet my grandfather and father, and discuss with them how practical this matter is.” Alisa smiled. He overflowed and got up and walked into the room to change clothes.
Back at the villa, John still took the time to take a shower, and then went to bed to rest.
The next day, John got up energetic and had breakfast.
Then he went shopping with Ofina, and when he walked to the East District, John met a very strange person in his memory.
“What’s wrong with you?” Ofina reminded John, looking at John in a daze.
John was woken up by her, and then said, “Meet a friend.”
Ofina naturally noticed the person John was looking at. It was a woman who looked 30.2.3 years old. She was trying her best to persuade a fat man in her fifties in front of her.
It seems that their relationship is very good, but the fat man is very fierce. The fat man seems to have been drunk, and he tried his best to shake off the woman’s hand that held her.
Then he pointed at the woman’s nose angrily and yelled at something, while the woman was persuading helplessly, her face full of pleading.
“Your previous girlfriend?” Ofina asked tentatively.
John took one look at her, then quipped, “Yeah, but not mine.”
“Go up and see what’s going on.”
Speaking of John, he took Ofina’s hand and stepped forward.
“I bought this before, I am qualified to deal with these things, you are not qualified to control me!” The fat man yelled at the woman.
“Please father, this is a gift from you to mother. Don’t do this.” The woman begged helplessly.
At this moment, John stepped forward and asked softly, “Mary Linton?”
John’s gentle voice interrupted the quarrel between the two.
The two turned their heads to look at John and Ofina, and a pair of very well-matched golden boys and girls stood in front of them.
“Yes, you are?” Mary Lington tried hard to recall the memory about John, but her fairly good memory told her that she had never met the two of them.
“John Wick, Ofina. Is your brother Jamie okay?” John glanced at the fat man beside him, and then asked Mary Lington’s brother.
In fact, he wanted to show that he was Arthur’s friend, but he remembered that Mary’s father hated Arthur very much. Arthur and Mary Lington did not get married because her father looked down on robbers.
He even broke them up many times, and finally married Mary Lington to her short-lived husband.
“Fortunately, he found a job in the plantation recently, and he is quite happy.” Mary Lington seemed to see that John was hiding something, so she talked about her younger brother’s situation.
“Ah~ That’s nice. Who’s this?” John asked about Mary’s father.
“Onoyaf Lal Gillis, Mary’s father.” Seeing John’s extraordinary bearing, the fat man put away his irritability and introduced himself.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Gillis.” John shook hands with him enthusiastically.
“What are you doing? Did you encounter anything?” John asked curiously.
“It’s nothing, Mary, entertain your friends well, and don’t follow me.” Gillies said casually, and then said to Mary, and then left here alone.
Mary looked at her father’s back with a sad face, but it was difficult to continue to catch up with John.
“I’m Arthur’s friend, what happened to your father?” John didn’t explain why he knew her until Gillis was gone.
“Oh~ Arthur, is Arthur okay?” Mary asked about Arthur’s condition as soon as she heard his name.
John recalled it carefully because of his participation. Arthur did not go to Downs to collect debts, because Downes’ debts were returned to Strawney (the accountant of the Van der Linde gang, mainly lending usury to people) after he went there, although Downs still He was **** off in advance. But Arthur did not contract tuberculosis because of this, so there is a high probability that Arthur will live a long time.
“Not bad, I feel a lot fatter. What happened to you, your father seems to be in trouble, find a place to talk, maybe I can help?” John asked tentatively.
Mary Lington didn’t have much thought to talk and narrate with someone she didn’t know well, but Mary Lington’s eyes suddenly lit up after John offered to help.
“Can you?” Mary asked.
“Maybe~” John gave her an expression that was likely to help.
Then the three of them came to an ordinary coffee shop.
“My father recently went bankrupt due to investment failures. I think he was cheated. Almost all the property was mortgaged to pay off the debts. Now my father is drinking all day long, and he keeps selling things from the past. I always feel that he This will lead to accidents. And there are still some creditors urging, I don’t know what to do.” After the three ordered a cup of coffee, Mary Lington talked about what happened to her father in the past few months.
“Cheated? What did he invest in?” John asked curiously.
“A few months later, his business friend came to his home to find him, saying that there was a very profitable investment stock, and he could make money by investing in it. He wanted to pull his father into the market together. The two talked for a long time. That night, my father I drank a lot and was very happy.” Mary talked about what happened that night.
“The next day, my father went out with his friends. In the next month, my father was very happy and often told me that he was going to make a fortune, and I didn’t do anything about it. But I think there must be problems with such an easy thing. But my father said that I don’t understand, and I can’t persuade him.”
“In the time that followed, my father mortgaged all the assets and put them all in.”
“Didn’t you try to stop him when he mortgaged it?” John asked strangely. He didn’t know anything about stocks, but he could make money by investing in them. He’s an old liar.
“At home he was always talking, and he wouldn’t tell us anything, until a few months later, he suddenly didn’t come home for many days.”
“I was very worried about him. I went to his store and company to find out that my father went bankrupt and we lost everything. And I also found him recently. He has been drinking and often with some strange people. I’m worried about him.” Mary Lington said with a worried face.
“What stock did he buy?” Ofina asked aloud while listening for a while.
“Oh ~ um ~ it seems to be the stock of Cornwall Company, I don’t know which one it is.” Mary Lington tried hard to recall.
“Ah~ Then he was indeed cheated.” Hearing this name, John remembered the stock scam that William said. Both he and Senator Edwin entered the market at the beginning, and they kept selling and leaving the market during the rising period. , earned a lot.
But the money earned is probably from people like Mary’s father. This scam has bankrupted countless people, and Cornwall seems to have been investigated because of it, but it didn’t matter in the end.
After all, how can things in stocks be considered cheating? Those players are greedy.
John was a little thankful that William got away in time, although he didn’t get the fattest piece of cake.
“Really? Do you know this person? Can you ask them to return our defrauded assets?” Mary asked naively.
John said in embarrassment about this, “How should I put it, this is still an investment mistake. He withdrew too late, resulting in a loss. This kind of thing will not come back.”
John struggled to explain the stock, because he didn’t know the details. But it would probably let Mary know about his father’s failure factor in this stock scam.
Mary was disappointed to hear this.
John looked at her disappointed look, and then said, “Business failure is inevitable, but I wonder if your father is interested in starting some bootleg business? I can give him some introductions, so that he can quickly accumulate Some funds.”
“Bootleggers?” Mary frowned.
“My father rarely does illegal business~www.mtlnovel.com~ He is a very honest businessman.”
“Okay, of course, if he is interested, he can come to this address to find me. I welcome him to join at any time.” John immediately wrote down the address of the villa and handed it to Mary.
Seeing that John was serious, Mary accepted him.
“Mr. Wick, can you contact Arthur for me? Let him find me at this address?” Mary asked about Arthur’s situation after accepting it.
“Arthur? Yes.” John nodded after taking the address, indicating that there is no problem.
At this time, John’s men came in from the outside.
“Mrs. Alisa asked you to go to her manor.” The subordinate walked to him and whispered in his ear.
“Oh, I see.”
After John responded, he said to Mary, “I have something to do here, so I will leave first, and I will tell Arthur. Goodbye, Mrs. Killington.”
“Goodbye, Mr. Wick.” Mary nodded.
Then John took Ofina to Alisa’s manor.
