Wine and Gun

The man's fiddling with the sandwich stopped.

Then he looked up, green eyes beneath the apparently flat glasses, which had no effect other than camouflage.

In the case of encountering such a scene, most people will choose to answer "I don't know what you are talking about": this is human nature. There's an unreasonable hope that as long as they don't admit it, no one will expose them in the end.

But this was clearly not an option for Albarino Bacchus.

Albarino was stunned for a moment, then showed a rather calm smile: "What's your name?"

"Gabriel Morgenstern," the red-haired lady replied.

The lady had mild green eyes, the green of oak and fir, which should have been pleasant, but had a strange sharpness in her face.

"I haven't heard of this name, and I guess you weren't in Westland before." Albarino replied cautiously, WLPD has always been concerned about local news under those turbulent undercurrents, such as Orion Hunter, Albarino also heard the name of this man a long time ago. He doesn't believe that an ordinary person can catch his footing, and the background of the woman in front of him must not be simple - but he has never heard of this name, which makes things even more interesting.

“Actually I rarely come to America,” Gabriel admits calmly. “It’s still an unexplored new world for me.”

"But you mentioned 'business'," Albarino reminded. He still can't judge the intention of this uninvited guest who seems to be not malicious. According to her, she came to do business with him?

"Yes," Gabriel slowed down and smiled, "As you know, there are always all kinds of troubles in reclaiming a new world, just like the Indians slaughtered by your ancestors when they first settled here. Like people...and what you do to deter your enemies: in many cases, only blood and killing can establish a position."

She paused meaningfully.

—then she said, "I want that list you got from Sequoia Manor."

Albarino hummed softly: "So, are you assuming there is a list?"

"There must be a list," Gabriel shook her head, wavy curls brushing over her shoulders like a river of blood, "Anyone in Kabbah Slade's position would choose to keep a copy of this 's list: because he has to hold the handle of his clients firmly in his hand, or he's not safe himself. But first the cops didn't find the list, and second, you seem pretty sure who is Sequoia Manor customer, at least you're decisive when you smash someone to ashes—"

"Such a reason is too far-fetched and not enough to convince others," Albarino replied.

But Gabriel at least laughed and touched the other's heart with her scarlet nails: "The most important thing is that on the night that Herstal Armalette first visited Sequoia Manor , the manor was invaded, and then one of the manor's guards was silently killed - Slade's men buried him in the forest three kilometers from the manor, thinking no one would find out... Anyway , guess whose DNA can be found from the teeth of this tragically dead guard, Dr. Bucks?"

Albarino was silent for a moment, then shrugged his shoulders, his voice still relaxed: "I thought you just said you 'seldom come to America'."

"I don't come very often, and I was far away in Europe when these things happened. In fact, if it wasn't for you, I would have gone back now," Gabriel said softly, "but everyone has a talent, just Just as you're obviously exceptionally good at being an unruly murderer in the eyes of the police, I'm probably really good at, um, snooping."

This is indeed a bit too good at "inquiring about news". If Orion Hunter was present, he would find himself as a party to the Sequoia Manor incident. In the end, the cause and effect of the incident have not been figured out more than a person who was not present at all. This is definitely It's going to blow the old bounty hunter who thinks he's seasoned.

"A few short-term domestic helpers who will speak when they are given money, a few thugs who only take money to do errands, a good hunting dog, and then observe the strange behavior of the bounty hunter named Hunter recently... ...As long as you have enough money and connections, it's not difficult to figure out the ins and outs of things." Gabriel continued with the same gentle tone as before, "Also, many people don't use the 'you don't tell me just one thread'. "Cut off your fingers one by one" is one of my strengths."

"So, you were originally investigating Slade's list, and then you found me?" Albarino asked.

"No, I was investigating you, and I happened to find out that you may have Slade's list in your hand." Gabriel shook his head again, "That's good news, because it means I can talk to you about it. business, not something else for you."
