Red Dead Redemption Dawn

Chapter 81: Kane's Grief



In the large dining table of the manor, eight people were sitting on both sides.

John is sitting in the main seat with Kane at the bottom right, Dorom next to Kane, then Billy and Nick.

In the lower left hand, this is Kane and his wife Eva and then Miss Anne, who lives here temporarily.

"Where's Hart?" John glanced at him, but didn't see the cook.

"Come on, come on." Hart hurried over just after saying that, and sat down beside Nick.

The arrival of nine people means that dinner will begin.

"Lambert, Kane is going to be busy with other things recently, so I'll leave the dock area to you for the time being. Dorom and Nick will assist you." John turned his head and gestured to the two of them.

Dorom and Nick nodded, indicating that they would fully obey Lambert's orders.

"Oh, by the way, Billy, please sign this document. You will report to the police station tomorrow, and then go to assist Lambert and the others with the dock area. Lambert will assign you a job." John said from Backpack took out the Inspector's appointment book and handed it to Billy.

It's almost time for Billy to join the team.

"Okay, BOOS." Billy had no objection to John's order, and after taking the document, he wrote down his name.

Then John took the document and signed his name on it, and then handed the document to Lambert.

"You hand over the documents to Plum tomorrow and ask him to report Billy's identity."

"Yeah." Lambert nodded and replied.

After these trivial matters were finished, everyone started to eat. Miss Anne, who was staying here temporarily during dinner, was very active in talking to Lambert's wife.

A sumptuous dinner was quite enjoyable.

After eating, the two stout maids will take care of the things on the table, but John doesn't care what to do with them.

"Kane, come to my place later, I have something to talk to you about." John said to Kane as he went upstairs.

"Well, just take a shower and go." Kane replied without looking back, and then walked towards his room.

Hearing Kane's words, Annie looked at each other in surprise. She thought she had found something.

John looked at her surprised and disappointed expression, and was a little speechless.

There is something wrong with the girl's brain circuit.

But John certainly wouldn't explain anything to her.

Shaking his head speechlessly, John ran to fill a pot of hot water and returned to the balcony of the room to make tea.

The others also went back to their own rooms.

Half an hour later, Kane came to the large balcony of John's room and found John sitting in a chair smoking and drinking tea.

"Sit." John gestured.

Kane brought a pot of boiled coffee and poured it to himself.

"You really like this kind of leaves, why can't I feel the sweetness of what you said?" Kane said, looking at John as he took a sip from the coffee table.

"Used to it."

"Strange habit." Kane said and took a sip of his own coffee.

"Hehe, how's the company's affairs going?"

"It went very smoothly. The decoration will be completed tomorrow, and many documents have been completed. I also ordered the old furniture in the market. I think it will start running the day after tomorrow." Kane nodded, indicating that the progress was very fast.

"So soon?" John estimated that it would take four or five days.

"The people you know are quick to do things, and all the documents are ready in a few days. I knew it was right to ask you for this kind of thing." Kane praised a little.

"Well, how are Macri, Klein and Paul preparing?" John asked.

"They have found some of their subordinates and recruited a lot of people. Macri is the president of the Blackwater Detective Agency. He is familiar with all the operations of the Pinkerton Detective Agency. We can copy it and modify it, there is no problem. Ryan and Paul are also very familiar with the basic operation of the detective agency, and tomorrow they will sort out a set of rules and regulations, and then I will show you if there is any problem."

"What about the contract?"

"According to what you said, President Macri gets 3% of the shares, increasing by 1% every year for five years, and no growth after five years. He can let the company buy back the shares or continue to hold a certain amount of shares. Dividends are distributed, but they cannot be sold to anyone other than the company. If you want to sell these shares, you can only sell them to the company. The remaining two people are 2%, and the annual increase is 0.5%, which is also a five-year system.

They are very grateful for this approach, and they are very serious that they will definitely put a lot of effort into building Skynet Office, and according to you, we also signed a drafting contract with the Docklands branch.

The trivial case about the dock area is transferred to Skynet for handling. This contract bill needs you to report to the General Administration, but I think there should be no problem. Best you can convince the other precincts in Blackwater to sign such a contract with Skynet. These trivial cases are also piled up in police stations in other regions all the year round. I think those taxpayers in Blackwater should be happy to have such an organization to help them with their chores. "Kane rambled about the constitution of the company called ''.

The company's full name is 'Skynet Security Company' John.

"Well, tomorrow I will talk to the director about this matter, and then talk to the heads of other areas, and try to win all the contracts in Blackwater Town in these few days." John is still very confident about winning this matter. The police station does have a lot of those trivial matters piled up in various sub-bureaus, and they are too lazy to deal with them. If anyone is willing to take over this mess, they will hardly object.

There shouldn't be much of a problem with Chief Leiter. As long as Leiter is willing to nod on such a trivial matter, no one will object. And the councilors of Blackwater Town could not provoke Leiter because of such trivial matters.

But there is still a problem, and that is profit. John didn't know how much the councillors of Blackwater were willing to allocate for this contract. It shouldn't be too much, but it shouldn't be too little, at least in Leiter's face.

It seems that it is safer to go to Mr. Edwin for help tomorrow. He should have a very good relationship with a certain or two councilors in Blackwater Town. It's not a big problem to ask them to do a little favor, just don't know how much it will cost.

A person like Mr. Edwin's favor is not easy to repay. He is not short of money and he is not short of men. Although he helped him once, but recently, he has helped him many times, and even sold his shares in a factory that he would never worry about eating and drinking in his life.

Thought that I would continue to find Mr. Edwin for help tomorrow, I was a little embarrassed.

But it seems that I have to go for the benefit of my company.

There is no way to ask for it again, if not, then give up part of the security company's shares, although I don't know if he will like this.

"That's the best." Kane nodded happily, creating a detective agency has always been his dream.

Now that more than half of it has been completed, how could he be unhappy, so he has been in high spirits these days.

"Where's Duncan?" Duncan was the accountant introduced by William. He was in his 40s and in good spirits. At first glance, he knew he was a very shrewd guy.

John felt very good after meeting that day, and Duncan was supporting his daughter to study in England. He heard that John was going to hire him as an accountant for a company. He was very happy to meet John.

The two sides had a good conversation. After negotiating the salary issue, the contract was signed on the spot. Duncan said that he would go back to deal with some things and would go to John's manor in three days.

"Tomorrow will be here, and I will wait for him to come with me."

"Are you looking for me for other things?" Kane also guessed more than that.

"Well, the director gave me a task today, which is very tricky."

"tell me the story?"

"You know what happened more than a month ago when the director took someone to Camp Gris to encircle and suppress the bandits."

"Of course I know, my ears are getting calluses when I hear it."

"That time, because of the leak of the traitor's news, the group of robbers set up an ambush in advance, resulting in the death and injury of more than ten elites in Heishui Town."

John took a sip of tea and continued.

"This time, Chief Leiter asked me to find out who this traitor is."

"Does he have any doubts?" Kane asked.

"There are three, but they are all very high-level but very capable. Maybe you follow him at the intersection and he will catch you at the end of the street." John briefly described the difficulty of investigating these three people.

"Do you have any information?" Kane thought for a while and said.

"A lot." John took out the stack of documents with a wry smile.

"Wow! You can see how much your director hates that traitor." Kane sighed, and then began to check the information.

Seeing Kane John who was reading carefully, he didn't bother too much, but waited while drinking tea.

Kane looked at the information carefully while drinking coffee. Time passed quickly, and two hours later, Kane had read the document back and forth several times.

"Are all the chief's subordinates so fierce?"

"Did you see anything?" John asked.

"This information is very detailed, even to the point of surprising me. If the traitor is among them, Zuo En is the most suspect, and he still has the cowboy style, but I think he is unlikely."

"How to say?"

"What qualifications should a traitor have?" Kane asked rhetorically.

"Ability, loyalty, and means?" John asked tentatively.

"There is one more important thing that you didn't say." Kane nodded and agreed with John's statement.

"what?"

"Hypocrisy," Kane continued after picking up the coffee.

"A spy may not have outstanding abilities and may not be so powerful, but he must be very good at disguising."

"Zuo En's character is the most obvious in the data. He is arrogant. Although he has arrogant capital, from the data, he should be a sharpshooter." Kane asked.

"Avoid doubts, he is." John said with certainty, still a sharpshooter at his peak.

"Well, Zuo En used to be a cowboy, or a robber if it sounds ugly, but no one knows who he robbed and killed."

"He was with Chief Wright for eight years, and he still carried his cowboy habits for eight years, whether it was talking or doing things. For eight years, no one can wear cowboy clothes for so long without doing something that is not in line with cowboy character. matter.

From what he has done over the years, it is easy to see that although he no longer robs and kills, he thinks that with the backing of Chief Leiter, other things begin to be unscrupulous in Heishui Town, because he knows that as long as it is not excessive , everyone will look at the director's face and not care about him.

He obviously clearly understood who gave him such a nourishing life. If something happened to Director Wright, he would most likely be the first to go up and work hard. "Kane said confidently.

"It makes sense, so I can ignore this guy?" John said tentatively.

"Probably not." Kane nodded.

"What about the remaining two?" John continued to ask.

"These two, what do you say." Kane scratched his head.

"From the analysis of this pile of information. Derek began to become ruthless after his wife and children died. The famous gang member may not let him fully vent his anger. That's why he caused him. He was accidentally injured by killing evil in the deep forest, was rescued by Leiter, and then worked with Leiter. From the way of doing things and the combination of his past, he has no big problems. "Kane is not too confident to rule it out. Derek.

"So you think the biggest problem is Mason, who has been with Leiter for thirteen years?!?" John asked in surprise.

"Although I don't quite believe it, the information on the former two shows that they are much less likely to be traitors than Mason." Kane scratched his head.

Mason's profile shows a story of an inspirational young police officer to a middle-aged detective. Reliable, competent, and treats subordinates like siblings. Mason sees no problems with the documentation.

"Where is his doubt?" John asked in confusion.

"He has no doubts," Kane said.

"No doubt? Then you??!"

"He has no doubts, so he is the most likely." Kane started his analysis again.

"Mason had a kind wife and a beautiful daughter. He started out with the flaws of an ordinary man, but over time he became a seasoned and discreet detective, with several very capable detectives. Man, hunt down criminals in this state to protect the wealth of wealthy taxpayers."

"I don't see any doubts about him, but the shortcomings of the former two are obvious, which leads to Inspector Mason, who has no shortcomings, has the biggest shortcomings." Kane picked up Mason's information and said.

"But he was a police officer in Blackwater Town when he was young, and he has a career as a police officer for nearly twenty years." John still felt that the possibility of Mason was too low.

"Yes, you are right, but I said that the most important thing for a traitor is to disguise, and the premise of disguise is not to play a character that does not match his own character for too long." Kane nodded and continued to explain to John .

"Inspector Mason, have you found out where Inspector Mason's cautious character began?" Kane asked.

"After becoming the captain of the police station," John said.

"Yes, but to be precise, after entering Chief Wright's sight. A young and capable little sheriff, remember how you became the sheriff in the dock area?" Kane asked.

"The introduction by Sheriff Baylor, then the interview with Chief Leiter and the tasks he issued, I have all completed them perfectly." John recalled his own experience.

"Yes, you took on a mission to protect the rich. Then, without paying a penny, you went to hunt down a dozen or so bandits alone, just to avenge a little girl and buried her family.

After receiving the task of the director, you kindly recruited a robber who sincerely repented. After returning to Blackwater Town, you asked Sheriff Baylor to contact Strawberry Town to cancel his reward. You also gave some of the compensation to the victims.

After solving the perverted murder case at the dock, you also told the police officers in the dock not to be too harsh on the prostitutes, and to ensure the safety of the group of prostitutes. The so-called protection fee they pay in total is only a nominal one per month. dollars, right? "Kane recounted what John had done over the past few months.

"Yes, I did. What's wrong?" John asked strangely.

"Then do you know your current image in the Blackwater Town Police Station and the upper class?" Kane asked again.

"What image??" John had a black question mark on his face.

"The last knight in Blackwater Town, young, handsome, brave, righteous, intelligent and compassionate, a man who has been seen in Blackwater Town once in fifty years." Kane teased.

"If it wasn't for your identity or Chief Leiter's greeting, you should be the most famous star sheriff in Blackwater Town. I'm sure the newspapers in Blackwater Town would publish your portrait and brag about it, if it wasn't for your identity Hiding in your own manor with someone who hasn't seen anyone all the year round, you will definitely receive invitations from many rich and noble ladies." Kane continued to tease.

"To go too far, what I want to say is that a person's image and his behavior are bound, and Inspector Mason's caution began after entering Director Leiter's field of vision, at least from the data This is what I saw on the Internet." Kane rubbed his head in pain, obviously this information and speculation gave him a splitting headache.

"It makes sense, not bad! Kane! It's very smart. It's hard work, hard work." John happily patted Kane on the shoulder and praised him without hesitation, and poured him a cup. Tea and coffee had been consumed within two hours of reading the document in front of him.

"Actually, it's not absolute. It's my personal guess. These things alone can tell some, but not all. Whether the traitor is Inspector Mason, you still need to investigate it yourself." Kane rubbed his temples, and then He drank the cup of tea that was neither too hot nor too low.

"Hey, it's not bad, it actually has the effect of relieving the pain in my head caused by overuse." Kane was surprised to find that his aching head was relieved after drinking two sips of bitter tea.

"Haha, this thing does have some miraculous effects. Or I will give you two packs so that you can alleviate this small problem." John said cheerfully.

"Where did you put it? I'll get it myself, John, what else do you have to do?" Kane nodded.

"Where is it, it's okay, it's okay, you have a good rest. You won't be able to help with the rest, I will handle it myself." John pointed to his bedside drawer.

Indicates where the tea is, let Kane get it himself.

When Kane, who had finished taking the tea, walked to the door, he looked back and said something.

"Don't forget to tell the director about the company tomorrow."

"Well, I'll tell the director tomorrow, don't worry, I'll get it done." John patted his chest with a thud.
