Chapter 75 Dach: Someone imitated my lines? !

The Pinkerton detectives searched Valentine and the surrounding area for two days before they found Horseshoe Lookout, the perfect place to camp.

Although the building has been empty, the various traces left behind are enough to prove that the Van der Lin gang stayed here for a long time.

For this reason, Detective Milton and his younger brother Detective Ross came to the door in person and found the new mayor Rorschach to learn about the situation.

After all, his contact with Arthur and others was witnessed by many Valentine residents.

Facing Milton's temptation and suspicion, Rorschach had only one way to play dumb!

Emphasize that I don't know that the other party is a fugitive, I just have an open and friendly attitude to accept anyone who comes to Valentine and so on...

Hearing Rorschach's straightforward explanation, Milton also felt that, as a former bounty hunter, now a well-known entrepreneur and mayor, he has rich people under his command.

There is absolutely no need to befriend these wanted desperadoes.

Therefore, after being unable to obtain more information, Milton led the Pinkerton detectives and left Valentine.

As for the Cornish men, they had long since left, returning to their employers.

With the departure of these uninvited guests, Valentine regained his calm again...

. . .

Valentine's development can be described as changing with each passing day.

Under the power of money and the explosion of the construction company, the Valentine Bicycle Factory stood upright on the east side of Valentine in just eight days!

It was a large factory covering an area of ​​more than [-] square meters, and the walls and all the walls of the factory were completely made of red bricks.

After a simple inauguration ceremony, the second bicycle factory of Roche Company was officially put into production!

It is worth mentioning that the composition of the workers in the factory, except for some local residents of Valentine, the rest of the workers are all Qing people recruited from Saint-Denis.

In order to accommodate these Qing people who came from afar and had no place to live, Rorschach also built a staff dormitory for them near the factory.

Just like the design of a university dormitory, each room has six double-layer wooden beds.

Public toilets, bathrooms and other living facilities are available.

Simple but comfortable!
As for wages, he did not discriminate against people of color like some other capitalists, all of them were treated equally.

Moreover, Rorschach followed Penelope's suggestion and recruited several female workers.Do some light assembly work.

It can also be regarded as making a certain contribution to improving the status of women in this era.

The eldest lady was very happy about this, and shyly unlocked many poses for Luo Xia...

And Valentine's main street has also been replaced with a smooth and clean concrete road.

Other streets are also undergoing road reconstruction in an orderly manner. Over time, rainy days will become a muddy Valentine, which will never return!

After finally finishing the affairs at hand, Rorschach took Joe, the bodyguard captain, and set off for Cape Cremon, preparing to visit the Van der Lin gang who had changed to a new place.

On the way to Cremorne Point Camp, you have to pass through a lush grove.

When Rorschach and Joe rode slowly through the woods along the path, there was a loud shout from the right side:
"stop!"

Looking around, I saw a young man wearing a bowler hat and a stubble chin, sprinting out from behind the tree trunk, holding a Carcano rifle in his hand, aiming the muzzle at the horse on the horse. two people.

Seeing the face of the person coming, Luo Xia couldn't help but slightly raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and patted Joe, who was also holding a gun in his hand, pointed the gun at the other party, and said casually:
"Hey! We're here to see Mr. Van der Linde."

Hearing this, Sean, who was planning to warn the two of them, was taken aback for a moment, and then asked back:
"You know Dutch?"

"Yes, I also know Hosea, Arthur, Charles, Javier, Karen..."

After mentioning the names of most of the members of the Van der Lin gang, Rorschach smiled, "Do you want me to continue?"

Hearing the ridicule in Rorschach's words, Sean couldn't help but frowned, and didn't put down the rifle in his hand, but continued to ask with a vague Scottish accent:
"Who are you? The policeman?"

"My name is Rorschach Anos, you should have heard my name."

As soon as these words came out, Sean seemed to think of something, his eyes widened slightly, and he looked Rorschach up and down:
"Just you? The new mayor of Valentine? You look younger than me..."

"If you don't believe it, you can find someone else to come out and see him"

Hearing this, Sean put down the rifle in his hand and waved it casually, "No need, the two of you won't cause any trouble. Go in."

The Van der Lin gang is cautious. They keep a low profile verbally every time, but they always cause trouble everywhere, for fear that others will not know that they are active in this area;
Saying that they are not cautious, he will arrange guards outside the camp to protect the safety of the camp.

Perhaps, this is a kind of psychological comfort for these desperadoes?
After guessing wildly, Luo Xia and the captain of the bodyguard rode forward.

Passing through the grove, suddenly enlightened.

What came into view was an open grass field with many tents built from horse-drawn carriages.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes, Arthur, who was playing poker with Hosea and Lenny, followed the sound and found that it was Rorschach. He couldn't help but move his right hand on the holster around his waist:
"How did you come?"

Jumping off the horse, Rorschach threw the reins to Joe behind him, and walked towards several people.

"Let me see how you are getting settled, and bring you something by the way..."

While speaking, he took out a gold bar from the pocket of his windbreaker and threw it to Arthur.

Catch the gold bar, feel its unique touch, Arthur is a little confused: "This is?"

"Remember you rescued the German here? This is his thank you to you and Charles."

Hearing this, Arthur suddenly realized.

In the next second, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind—so that guy has a gold bar on him? !
No wonder those guys kidnapped him...

Not knowing that Arthur was regretting in his heart, Rorschach just turned his head to look at Hosea and Lenny, and said hello:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Matthews."

"Hello, Mr. Arnos."

"Lenny..."

"Mr. Arnos..."

Just as Rorschach was greeting Hosea and Lenny, the Western Idea King also came out of the tent when he heard the noise.

As soon as he saw Luo Xia, his eyes flashed, and then he put on a smiling face and greeted him:

"Ha! Mr. Arnos! What brought you here?"

"Come on, let's go inside the tent and say..."

He invited Luo Xia to his tent, and before Dach asked about his intentions, Luo Xia had a serious expression on his face and said very seriously:

"Mr. Van der Linde, I have a plan..."
