Chapter 22 Because I'm Afraid of Death, So I Need Bulletproof
When Rorschach returned to the shooting scene after touching the corpse, the two surviving cowboys immediately took off their hats and expressed their gratitude:

"Thank you very much, sir... If it weren't for you, we might have lost our lives..."

Glancing at the boxes of wine bottles neatly arranged on the carriage, he seemed to think of something, and asked casually:

"It's nothing more than a little effort. Do you know these robbers?"

"I don't know them, but they claim to be members of the O'Driscoll Gang."

O'Driscot gang?

Hearing the familiar name here, Luo Xia couldn't help but frowned slightly.

In the entire world of "Red Dead Redemption 2", the time has come to the end of the nineteenth century.

As stated in the prologue when you first entered the game, this is the end of the era of outlaws and sharpshooters.

The United States is also transforming into a country ruled by law, and even the Wild West is almost conquered.

Even so, there are still a few gangs in this chaotic land, at large...

In addition to the van der Lin gang, which is small in number but has explosive fighting power, there are a few other gangs that must be mentioned.

The Howling Wolves, the Moraine Marauders, the Skinners, the Morrivers...

Among them, players are most familiar with, of course, the O'Drisco Gang, which is in conflict with the Van der Lin gang!

From the plot of the game, it can be known that Colm, the leader of the O'Drisco gang, once killed the woman of Dutch, the leader of the Van der Linn gang, and Dutch killed Colm's brother.

The two, together with the two gangs, were in a state of shooting almost as soon as they met, and they would never stop dying.

Knowing that these robbers belonged to the O'Drisco gang, Rorschach was even more satisfied with his decision to kill the grass.

Austrian Gang is no small role.

Although I am not afraid of the other party.However, there is no need to get yourself into bigger troubles just because of a small injustice...

During the ensuing conversation, Rorschach suddenly discovered that the owners of the two carriages were the Braithwaite family, one of the two major families in Rhodes Town!

One of them, a man with a mustache and a younger appearance, was a member of the Braithwaite family named John Braithwaite.

Hmm, very bad street name...

The wine on the carriage was supposed to be sent to Saint-Denis.

However, he was robbed by robbers on the way, and two of his subordinates died, and many wine bottles were also smashed.

Both personnel and goods were lost, and it was impossible for them to continue to Saint-Denis, so they had to go back and explain the situation to the Braithwaite family.

However, considering that the two of them had to control two wagons, walking on the vast grassland, like a big piece of fat walking, everyone salivated.

And after learning that the young black-haired youth in front of him is the recently budding bounty hunter "Ghost", John Braithwaite decided to make an unfeeling request to him:
"Mr. Rorschach, if you are willing to escort us back to Braithwaite Manor, the Braithwaite family will be very grateful for your help."

When speaking, the other party also specially emphasized the word "thank you".

The implication is that there is a generous reward.

After thinking about it for a while, Rorschach decided to accept the request, and escorted the carriage back to Braithwaite Manor in Rhodes Town with the two of them.

Anyway, Saint-Denis is very close to Rhodes, and he won't run around, why don't he go to appreciate the style of the big plantation family in this era first?

As far as he knew, the Braithwaite family was secretly running a moonshine business.

In this era of increasing prohibition activities and high food prices, the prices of regular drinks are also frighteningly high.

Ten cents for a shot of scotch!

If the bootleg wine of the Braithwaite family could be transported to Valentine for sale, the benefits would definitely be considerable.

Of course, the premise is that the Braithwaite family is willing to do business with a stranger like themselves.

Helping the other party to send this batch of goods back safely may be a good self-introduction and the beginning of a cooperative relationship...

. . .

sunset.

The sunset is like the orange paint in the hands of a painter, dyeing the sky with bright colors.

"drive!"

John Braithwaite and another cowboy, each driving a carriage, walked back along the road they had come from.

And Luo Xia, who was wearing a black windbreaker, followed behind on horseback, in case there was a sneak attack from behind.

While the two of them were driving and had no time to pay attention to themselves, Luo Xia held the rein with one hand, and opened the hem of the windbreaker with the other hand.

Looking down, I saw a bullet hole in the left abdomen of the white shirt at some point!
He casually undid a button of the shirt, put his hand in and touched it, and Rorschach picked out a warhead that was crushed by the impact from the surface of the steel plate!
Playing with the warhead in his hand, Luo Xia slightly pursed his lips, and nodded with satisfaction:
"Fortunately, there are bulletproof vests..."

The bandit leader did shoot Rorschach.

However, the bullet that shot through the shirt and hit his left abdomen did not enter the body, but was blocked by the bulletproof vest he was wearing.

That's one of the reasons why he's not afraid to go to guns with the bandit leader!

In addition to being very confident in his marksmanship, this self-made bulletproof vest is also one of his reliance!

As early as half a month ago, Rorschach began to make the late nineteenth century version of the bulletproof vest.

He's not the kind of reckless guy who rushes to confront others as soon as his head gets hot.

Of course, he also cherishes his little life, which was so hard to escape from the hands of death.

Therefore, Luo Xia is willing to take all measures to ensure the safety of his life.

Homemade bulletproof vest is one of the ways!
He first ordered several steel plates of different thicknesses through a grocery store.

After a personal test, he found that the [-]mm steel plate best met his requirements.

Even if hit within five meters, the bullets of the revolver cannot penetrate the steel plate.

Immediately afterwards, a special vest was ordered at the tailor shop.

Finally, 14 yuan and [-]mm rectangular steel plates were stuffed into the inner layers of the front, back, left, and right sides of the vest, thus completing the bulletproof vest.

This homemade bulletproof vest is not light, and it is not very convenient to wear.But the protection is very good.

After all, Rorschach could not ensure that he would not be hit by the enemy at all in the midst of a chaotic gun battle.

With this bulletproof vest, it can be regarded as an extra insurance.

It's just that every time you get shot, it costs you a shirt...

Buttoning up his shirt again, Rorschach threw it casually, and the bullet that could not penetrate the steel plate and enter his body was abandoned on the grass...

. . .

Maybe it's because the goods on the car are moonshine wine that is not necessarily bright.

Therefore, after going around from outside the town of Rhodes, the two carriages entered Braithwaite's estate.

A boulevard extending forward came into view.

On both sides of the road, there are huge and sturdy trees.

At the end of the avenue, there is a simple and unpretentious mansion!

At this time, John Braithwaite, who was sitting in the carriage, turned his head to look at Rorschach who was riding parallel, and waved his hand:
"Welcome to Braithwaite Manor..."
