Wine and Gun

My ears pricked up: Attempted second-degree murder is a very serious charge, and as we all know, the more serious the charge, the higher the bail, and this Langdon's bail must be high, no wonder this professional surety gave me three in the middle of the night Call up.

These surety bail criminals without having to pay the court money first, he may have mortgaged his house and car when he released Langdon on bail, poor man. If Langdon escaped, he would have to pay for the entire sum, and at that point he would no longer be able to maintain his present tone of composure.

"And since Mr. Langdon has some terrible criminal records," Smith's voice was as flat as he was unaware of his tragic future. "His bail has been staggeringly... $150,000."

I swallowed dryly.

He continued: "If you can bring him back, I'll pay you fifteen per cent of your bail."

- That's more than $22,000. Of course, it's not that I didn't take a bigger order before, but the previous one almost cost me a permanent loss of my hand, so I don't miss that very much. some time.

When he spit out those few words, I suddenly felt a real thirst, I squirmed uncomfortably on the bed and said, "You—"

"Reputation is very important in this business," Smith replied, his voice stern. "I have to. If you can do it, I want you to do it as soon as possible."

There was something in his voice that made me wonder if Langdon would be willing to shoot Langdon himself in the leg when he was caught: that's not to say it wasn't what the bail bond he signed with the court gave him. Powered, with that bond, he could kick any door open and drag Langdon out of it.

He has this power, but these guys in the office have neither perseverance nor courage, and they are not good at tracking, so they will give us bounty hunters the job of catching criminals who flee on bail.

"Okay," I said, fully awake now. I hate Westland, yes; the guy charged with attempted second-degree murder would be dangerous, really - but that's $22,500! Who wouldn't jump to conclusions from this premise? "I see, sir, and I will as soon as possible."

The other party may be satisfied, but I can't hear his satisfaction from his voice: "Very good, I have sent the scanned copy of the bail bond and the information you need to know into your work mailbox." A pause . "His trial starts on the 23rd of this month and I hope we can all catch up."

He hung up the phone, and I jumped off the bed, grabbing my clothes with one hand and reaching for my laptop with the other.

—Smith is right, time is tight.

I need to go to Westland.

Westerland was as bad as I remembered.

If there is any season to avoid visiting Westland, it must be autumn and winter: these are probably the two longest seasons in the city, and only in October the leaves will fall in the city, and you can see everywhere at a glance. They are all gray, mixed with the yellow-colored land that has been exposed after the lawn has dried up. It rains endlessly this season, and the air is wet and cold.

I lived in a lousy motel with a musty dank smell on the walls and tables, but according to Smith, it was the closest to Langdon's place on bail.

I'm going to start with his trajectory, at least find out when he left. Smith's profile said that he couldn't contact Langdon yesterday, and when he went to his house, he found that the guy had escaped.

I read those documents carefully, so I wasn't surprised that he would run away: Langdon was a woman-beating scumbag, with a red face and an overdrinking face. Guys like this should be easy to impress people, hope that brings me luck.

When I left the hotel, the front desk TV was still showing the latest homicide news: two women were brutally murdered (I took a closer look, one of the deaths was still near my motel), and now The suspect police are suspecting turned out to be the chief medical examiner of the Westland Forensic Bureau.

I don't know if I should be surprised to see such an inference - I have to remind myself that the city I live in is not only gangster-ridden, shootings-prone, but also has one of the highest percentages of its citizens killed by murder each year. National number one. If that's the case, I wouldn't be surprised if their chief medical officer is a serial killer.

Ha, Westland.

Today's work at least paid off: Langdon is definitely going to leave the city on the 9th, but I'm not sure if he is out of the city and how, because when I was driving, I saw the police on the highway checking people out of the city, It seems to be investigating something. Anyway, Westland is still investigating such and such terrifying deaths every day, and they still have two serial killers that have not been caught.

It's been a hard day's work today, Langdon has a car, but he obviously didn't leave with his own car, and his license plate numbers are all on the record, which no one with brains would do. I went to every rental car and used car place I could find nearby - the cheap ones, he didn't have a job and certainly didn't have much money after his divorce from his ex-wife.
