Chapter 66 A Kind Reminder

In the tavern, the atmosphere was much more tense than expected.

"Since you said that, first of all, I want to know, why did you know that we are the Vanderlin gang and didn't arrest us?"

While asking this question, Dutch's hand was placed on the holster at his waist.

It seems that whenever Roxham's answer is wrong, he will take out his gun and invite the young and promising new town mayor to eat a hot "peanut".

This is how Ducky tries to regain his initiative.

However, facing the faint threatening meaning of Daqi's words, Rorschach's face did not change, but just picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then said lightly:

"Hey, Mr. Vanderlinder, this is my town. You don't think I'm really stupid to come to see you alone, do you?"

"Whether you are going to shoot me to death or take me out of here hostage, I can guarantee that none of you can get out of this tavern."

Yes, just in case, he had already arranged more than fifty people around the tavern.

Perhaps it's nothing in front of sharpshooters like Dutch and Arthur.

However, the advantage in numbers can still make them afraid of the enemy.

Sure enough, when he heard Rorschach's words, Dutch and Hosia beside him frowned.

Arthur, who was sitting at another table, also put his hand on the gun holster.

"Is this a trap?!"

He raised his index finger and shook it. Rorschach immediately explained: "No, no, no, this is just my protection measure. You know, I am facing the famous Van Delin Gang..."

"If you think this is OK, please remove your hand from the gun and we'll continue talking."

Hearing this, Daqi blinked his eyes and slowly moved his hand away from the holster and placed it on the table.

"This is the normal attitude to talk... After all, no one wants to be pointed at the head when talking, right?"

While talking, Rorschach did not forget to pick up the wine bottle and poured the two of them a glass of transparent and mellow wine:

"This is pure Scotch whiskey, not those fakes, please try it."

Seeing this, Dutch looked at Hosia beside him, then reached out to pick up the wine glass and drank it all in one go.

With a "bang", he lowered the wine glass, and Dutch asked immediately: "Mr. Arnos, have you not answered my question yet?"

"You ask me why I didn't arrest you all? The reason is actually very simple. During your time in Valentine, you were obedient and did not cause trouble or break the law."

"So, out of the principle of mutual respect, I have not arrested you all, nor have you sold your whereabouts to those who want to hang you."

"Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Although this answer is not perfect, it is enough to reduce the suspicion in Daqi and Hosia's hearts.

"Are you sure the content on the telegram is true?" Dutch continued.

"This is the message I have received. As for whether it is true or not, I have no way to know. I don't know what festival you have with Cornwall, but this is just a kind reminder. Believe it or not, let it be."

He looked at Roxia deeply, and Hosia, who was beside him, suddenly asked:

"Mr. Arnos, why do you inform us?"

"As I said just now, I have no grudges and grudges with you. On the contrary, I get along well with you..."

Speaking of this, Rorschach deliberately glanced at Arthur who was sitting not far away, then shrugged, spread his hands and said, "I like you more than Cornwall with a bad reputation."

"Don't think I'm a member of the capitalist, but I never squeeze my workers, nor suck their blood."

"It doesn't matter to me whether you are wanted outlaws."

"In today's era, multiple friends are better than multiple enemies..."

Rorschach's heartfelt words made Dachi, Hosia, and Arthur, who was sitting not far away, fall into deep thought.

After a while, Dutch, who had a frown on his brow, suddenly picked up the wine glass and greeted Rorschach:

"Mr. Arnos, whether this is true or not, thank you for your reminder."

Upon hearing this, Rossia picked up the wine glass and signaled to Daqi, "You're welcome, I'm just making friends..."

The eyes met, and the two of them drank the wine in their glasses in one go!

"By the way, if you want to move to another place, I suggest you go to Clermont Point, which is pretty good."

After saying that, Rorschach stood up, pulled the brim of his hat, and greeted the three of them:

"Gentlemen, I have to deal with some company affairs, so let's take a step forward. Please."

Leaving this sentence, he walked out of the tavern under the gaze of the three Vanderlins.

At this time, Arthur, who was sitting aside and witnessing the whole process, finally found an opportunity to speak:

"Duqi, what will we do next?"

"Let's talk about it when you go back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dutch suddenly stood up.

As soon as he walked out of the tavern door, he noticed a figure flashing on the roof of the building opposite.

Outside the shop diagonally opposite, two gunmen were looking here intentionally or unintentionally.

Obviously, this is what Roxsha calls a "protective measure"

I was glad that I did not take a tough attitude just now, so Daqi walked towards the horse...

...

After riding his horse, the three returned to the gang camp at the Horseshoe Watchtower.

Since the matter is unclear, Dutch just called Hosia and Arthur to his tent for discussions by senior gang leaders.

Sitting on the bed, taking off his hat and putting it aside, Dutch asked:

"Hosia, what do you think?"

Touching his chin with some stubble, Hosia expressed his opinion:

"If he wanted to send us all to the gallows, with his power, he would have done that long ago. Or if he didn't tell us directly, let us be beaten up like fools by Cornwall and Pinkerton."

"So, I don't think he has to act like this and put himself in danger just to deceive us."

Nodded, Dutch then looked at Arthur standing beside him, "Arthur, what do you think?"

After spreading his hands, Arthur responded in a muffled voice:

"I don't know. However, Rorschach gives me the feeling that he doesn't look like the kind of person who will betray others behind his back."

Frowning, Dutch immediately asked another very critical question: "How do you think Cornwall knew we were in Valentine?"

"This is a town for animal husbandry trading, with many people and eyes. It's not surprising that some of us are recognized." Hosia said.

Arthur, who was standing by, also echoed: "Yes, when I went to Valentine for the first time, I met a guy who saw me in Blackwater Town."

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the attention of Darchi and Hosia.

"You settled him?"

"Yes, I'll shut him up."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

"That's good…"

With a satisfactory answer, Dutch's eyes fell on a map spread out on the desktop, flashing with a shrewd light:
