America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 321 What Pinkerton can do, why can’t we do it?

A long-awaited robbery occurred in Lincoln County, and Sheriff Pilot and Miles rushed over immediately.

"Mr. Chen, with all due respect, you don't have to. Well, there's no need to make such a big fuss, right?" Pailer covered his nose and glanced at the scarlet ground and shattered walls.

A Chinese worker was using a shovel to shovel the pieces of meat on the ground, while a big hole was broken in the wall.

For some reason, there is still a smell of urine in the air.

Chen Jianqiu was a little disapproving: "Chief Peller, seven or eight robbers broke into my bank and almost killed me here. I should fight back, isn't it too much?"

Paylor is a law enforcement officer who pays attention to procedural justice.

It is indeed not a problem for citizens to use force to protect their property from infringement, as long as no innocent people are injured or killed.

But under normal circumstances, those gangsters who were shot would keep their bodies intact so that they could confirm their identities.

This case requires these things, which seems a bit extravagant.

Pyler lifted a corner of the cloth.

Chen Jianqiu and Okafor watched Sheriff Pilot and Myers leave.

At this time, Okafor accompanied Myers and walked in from outside the vault.

"I think this agency is more suitable to hunt down these big thieves. They are more experienced and have law enforcement qualifications."

Bounty? You have two police chiefs and three bounty hunters, and one of them is an ace in the industry. Do you still need to post notices in Lincoln County?

Inside was a dark mass that looked like a machine gun, but it was different from Gatling.

"It seems like you are the only one who has ever caught someone." Abiot snorted angrily, "If you could have caught him, you would have caught him, and his reward is five thousand US dollars."

"No need." Paylor looked at the rotten meat again, "No one will sue you. There are many witnesses."

The eye emblem is particularly conspicuous.

"That's different! Didn't you let him run away?" Hanif originally wanted to spit out the apple peel in his mouth, but when he saw Chen Jianqiu's eyes on the floor in front of him, he decided to swallow the peel.

"It's just Sean and the lawyer." Chen Jianqiu looked around the living room.

"I know that you all have special skills. In the past, you relied on technology to make a living, doing some crime-fighting work, such as law enforcement, such as bounty hunters."

The most prominent bounty hunters in the West have more or less tried to plot against this big thief, but none of them, including Camilla, succeeded.

Pile took out a notebook and a pen, and wrote something in the notebook with the pen.

Chen Jianqiu smiled slightly: "Then who do you think is more suitable to handle these matters?"

"After all, two of the three heroes of the Western Region are here."

There was silence in the living room.

"Are they coming too?" Hanif stuffed his mouth full of apples, "I didn't see them on the way here."

"Boss, is this really the case?" Okafor asked.

"You took it backwards." Pile reminded from the side.

Sean and the lawyer walked in from outside, holding a large package in their hands.

"I don't know if you know Jesse James. He is a famous thief and very cunning." Peller took out a piece of paper from his clothes.

"They should have kept their pursuit of Jesse James alive."

Chen Jianqiu took the piece of paper and took a look.

"Well, what about Pinkerton?" Chen Jianqiu decided to change the topic.

Hanif was lying on the sofa, chewing an apple, and Abiot, who was sitting on the sofa opposite him, also had an apple in his mouth, and the two stared at each other;

With his hands in his pockets, Wyatt, Holiday, Danny and his son stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, chatting about the bank robbery.

“In my hometown, there is a proverb, ‘When everyone adds firewood, the flames will rise’.”

“The new person in charge is the apprentice of the original Pinkerton’s ‘Three Western Heroes’ Heilman, and he is also someone William Pinkerton values ​​​​very much. He is counting on him to reorganize Pinkerton’s business in the west.”

"Sean will accompany the lawyer to pick up a parcel. He will be here shortly." Chen Jianqiu looked out the window.

Chen Jianqiu turned the card over, and the name of the card owner was written on it: Harry Rivers, head of the New Mexico area of ​​Pinkerton Detective Agency.

"I called everyone here today because I have one more thing to do."

"Are you here for us?" Chen Jianqiu finished his words for him.

"It's easy to say, just leave this matter to me." Hanif chewed an apple in his mouth and said nonchalantly, "I am familiar with this matter. That guy's gang is dead and he is the only one left. I will take it by myself."

Donnie can handle him."

"How could you just let it go if you robbed my money and hurt my people?" Chen Jianqiu looked at the big hole in the wall of the vault.

"Is this what you're using? Do you mind if I open it and take a look?"

"I know you are very capable, but I still suggest you leave these to people who are professional in doing these things."

They are all waiting for the owner of this house, Chen Jianqiu.

Paile and Chen Jianqiu have fought together, and they are also familiar with each other and know his abilities.

Chen Jianqiu suddenly interrupted.

A few afternoons later, in the living room of Chen Jianqiu's villa.

"They were keeping track of Jesse James."

He closed the book and walked up to Chen Jianqiu: "Mr. Chen, although the money taken away is not much, if you really want to claim it back, I suggest you offer a reward for him."

The sun shines in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making the living room very bright.

"Just take a look." Chen Jianqiu didn't mind at all.

"The only gangster who escaped took a total of one hundred and ninety-eight dollars and forty-four cents." Miles reported to Pile.

Holly nodded.

"So, you chased them into my bank?" Chen Jianqiu put the piece of paper into his pocket and glanced at Pilot. "You took over Pinkerton's intermediary business?"

"I've seen the two corpses on the street. There's one I know, an old acquaintance, Ford, one of Jesse James' men." Okafor pointed to the small scar on his forehead, "This

That’s what he left for me.”

"Haha, the three heroes of the West, hehe." Hanif's face was full of ridicule.

After all, he was a well-known figure in the West before. It is indeed quite embarrassing to say this.

Everyone present seemed a little embarrassed.

What Chen Jianqiu said was reasonable, and the people below felt at ease.

Holly dug out a few pieces of paper from the information on the table and handed them to Chen Jianqiu.

When Chen Jianqiu was about to continue talking, the door to the living room was opened.

He walked to the edge of the dining table and flipped through the information on the table: "What do you think?"

Chen Jianqiu thinks this is a bit of black humor.

"In order to prevent everyone's skills from being wasted, and in order to give everyone an opportunity to make extra money in their spare time, after careful consideration (meaning two minutes), I decided"

On the dining table next to them, there are various materials piled messily, some about Jesse James, and some about the Pinkerton Detective Agency and their new head of New Mexico, Harry River.

Sri Lanka's.

"This guy is as slippery as oil." Wyatt, a former police sergeant, shook his head. "I also dealt with him in Dodge City and let him run away."

"So, you all suffered from him before?"

After a while, Chen Jianqiu and Camilla appeared at the corner of the stairs.

"In addition, we judge that their motive for re-entering New Mexico is not that simple. It may be for their own sake." The young man stopped talking, looked at his father, and then at Chen Jianqiu, hesitating whether to continue talking.

"But, before, you all fought on your own."

Everyone put down what they were doing and turned their attention to the two of them.

Pile snorted and didn't bother to refute.

"Moreover, Jesse James's legendary experience means that he has never lacked fans. He always has a way to recruit followers, and they will quickly become devoted to him, and then quickly make a comeback." The blond Holly added at the side.

The weather in New Mexico at this time doesn't warrant a fireplace, but it's the focal point of the living room and speaks to everyone.

"Then ignore them for now." Chen Jianqiu walked to the front of the fireplace.

"What a coincidence." Chen Jianqiu took out the package from the lawyer's hand and opened it.

"Then the person who ran away might be Jesse James."

"Do I need to take it to the court for evidence?" Chen Jianqiu moved his arms. The recoil of the machine gun just now was still very obvious. "I can find someone to carry it over."

Pilot walked to the Maxim machine gun covered with cloth and asked:

"The money isn't much anyway, so I won't offer a reward. Thank you, Sheriff!" Chen Jianqiu shook Pile's hand.

He looked at Chen Jianqiu and his tone was a little sincere and sincere:

"After all, you are a decent person now. Because of you, Lincoln County is safer than ever before, so I really don't want to see you step into muddy water again."

Inside is a license made of brown paper.

Everyone took a closer look and saw a line of names written on it

"Border Detective Agency".

"I thought about it, that old man Pinkerton was just a Scotch cooper, and he only participated in one more Civil War than we did. What he can do, why can't we do it ourselves?"
