They all call me master

The person outside the door is Cook.

That third-level police officer from the Duo District.

According to Arthur's original estimation, the other party should appear here only after James's death - during this period, he would still need some 'guidance'.

But now, it appears directly.

‘Has anyone given any advice? ’

‘Is he the father in the other party’s rumors? ’

Arthur guessed, but his actions were not slow.

It's not like opening the door.

Instead, prepare some necessary props.

Cook stood in front of the door of No. 2 Kirk Street.

The third-level police officer from the Duo District, who had not slept well all night, had a tired look on his face, and his heart was filled with uneasiness and anxiety. As Maltz reminded him yesterday, the third-level police officer from the Duo District did not return to his place in Duo District. The house next to the SAR police station, but went directly out of the city to his father's farm.

Cook believed he was safer at his father's side, and that even if Cook Sr. took an arrow in the knee, he could be thrown out with one hand.

What's more, there are eight strong uncles and more than a dozen hounds on my father's farm.

These uncles are much more reliable than his patrol policemen.

And those hounds are even more reassuring.

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

He could sense that James was finished.

Whether it was Auburn who was 'betrayed' or the guys Auburn wanted to kill, they would not let James go.

Then here comes the problem!

What about him?

He might also be targeted!

Even if this possibility is not high.

But faced with his own life, Cook did not dare to gamble.

With the family fortune left to him by the old Cook, Cook, who has been rich since he was a child, is far from being as radical as other police officers. He is more accustomed to obtaining profits in a safe way.

Therefore, at that time, Cook thought of seeking help from Arthur - but he was not sure whether Arthur could protect himself, and...

What does he need to pay?

Cook told the elder Cook all his concerns.

Even though Old Cook, who knew his son's character well, was very helpless, if it weren't for the similar appearance, Old Cook would almost think that this son was not his own.

The retired bounty hunter said this-

‘The Kratos family?

I had heard about their reputation, but I didn't expect that they were actually from that world. Judging from the behavior of the other young heir, they should have been a family that chose to hide from the world before.

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

And what do you need to pay?

It is to obtain the position of police chief and provide the other party with due convenience.

Remember, only by obtaining the position of Sheriff can you be qualified to be loyal to that person!

And this is not difficult!

There are no level 2 police officers in the Duo District, and there are level 3 police officers like you and another confidant of James. If James can't survive, naturally this guy can't survive either.

As long as James dies, this guy must die.

At that time, the position of Sheriff will be yours’

‘Don’t we need to think about it again? ’

'consider?

Do you have any more options?

Or, do you think people in that world will be as young and easy to talk to as that ‘spiritual medium’?

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

Even when facing that 'spiritual medium', you have to be in awe - if you can't do anything to that so-called colleague, bring an uncle from the farm and he will help you solve everything.

Cook, my son, you have to remember that I cannot protect you for life. When your uncles and I are old and can no longer hold guns and knives, everything here needs you to protect us!

Of course, the choice is yours!

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

Cook recalled the conversation he had with his father last night.

Under the candlelight, the stout father in his memory had become a little rickety at some point. Although his arms that were thicker than an ordinary person's waist were still shocking, when his father's big hand patted his shoulder, he could feel it. Among them is the decline in strength, and the gray hair on the sideburns. I don’t know when.

My father is old.

I guess it won’t be easy to throw the horse down in another two years.

Who else can he rely on at that time?

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

As for leaving?

Less likely!

Cook knew very well what it would take to start everything over. Instead of betting on the unknown, it would be better to seek refuge in Arthur for 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-level police officer from the Dortmund District said very politely——

"Good morning, Advisor Kratos."

"Good morning, Constable Cook."

Arthur responded with a smile and invited the other party to enter No. 2 Kirk Street.

After taking a seat in the 'Psychic Medium Hall', the third-level police officer of the Duo District began to consider the words word by word and said.

"Consultant Kratos, what do you think about No. 10 Clara Street?"

‘I’ll just sit here and watch. ’

Arthur said in his heart, but pretended to be silent on the surface.

"Please forgive me for my recklessness and rudeness."

Noticing Arthur's silence, the third-level police officer from the Duterte District immediately apologized - unlike the decisiveness of Wiggins and Maltz, there was a sense of sloppiness in Cook's character.

Even after making the decision, this personality still affects Cook's behavior.

Because, most of the time, Cook habitually lets others make decisions for him.

‘What a good father! ’

Arthur can completely guess that in this era, with a character as hesitant as Cook, he can still become a third-level police officer in the South Losdor District. What kind of efforts did the other party's father put in and what he gave to Cook? What kind of protection does Cook have? In the eyes of many people, Cook's behavior is representative of a bully, especially in a police station where 'sheriffs' and new laws coexist.

Facing Cook like this, Arthur waved his hand.

The young 'spiritual medium' said softly——

"What happened at 10 Clara Street was an accident. I don't want to be involved, so I have to maintain my neutrality."

Arthur stated his position very directly.

He knew very well that if Cook was allowed to continue asking, he might not be able to talk about anything for a whole day, and even, maybe in the end, the other party's old father would come forward.

The other party's old father is not as easy to fool as the other party.

So, Arthur almost made it clear.

Although Cook was a little hesitant in character, he was not stupid. 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 determination just at the door.

Suddenly, the third-level police officer from the Duo District gritted his teeth and said.

“Can I also maintain this neutrality?

If I choose to join your service.

I can swear to you! "

The third-level police officer of the Dudu District said "risky words" that were absolutely impossible to say in the past.

"Compared to the solemnity of an oath, I prefer the constraints of a contract——"

Arthur raised his hand.

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

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

Cook stared blankly at the pen in front of him, and after signing his name with his brain a little down, he realized what had happened.

That world!

This is the world that my father talked about!

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

Then, under Cook's gaze, it burned violently.

The flames rolled and the parchment turned into nothingness.

An invisible force touched Cook's eyebrows at this moment.

It's not an illusion!

It's a real, tactile click!

"ah!"

Cook exclaimed and jumped up from his chair.

Arthur, who was sitting in the chair, leaned back slightly, moved his eyes to fall on the face of the panic-stricken third-level police officer from the Duo District, and said with a faint smile——

"The contract is established!"
