Texas.
Outside Sawyer Manor.
The old lawyer Franworth said, "This is Texas" and Heather was shocked.
What happened to Texas?
Isn't it a member of the rice family?
Is it possible to leave the law?
Then the old lawyer Franworth gave the answer.
Really don't talk about it.
"Heather, this is Texas."
The old lawyer Franworth sighed: "'The folks are simple and honest.' Not only are the thugs in those days good now, but the headed Bert is already the mayor, his son, and the people who participated in the massacre. Few are in the police station.
The local newspapers reported on the events of the year, but everyone was on their side, thinking that what they did was a hero. Rila couldn’t help them. She didn’t want you to confront them, so kid, forget the past. . "
"I think when they said, my family must have shot the gun first, right?"
Heather sneered.
"of course."
The old lawyer Franworth shook his head and said: "Everyone says so, then it's the truth, but in private, those people used to brag about how they slaughtered the Sawyer family.
There is also the policeman who wanted to stop everything but couldn't help it. The sheriff of the small town once apologized to your grandma Rila in private, so what happened back then was not covered up.
It’s just that Gui knows that if you want to go through the legal process, it will not work at all. No one will help Sawyer’s family. After all, many people in the small town were killed by your cousin..."
"I know."
Heather said blankly: "There is no right or wrong in this matter."
Seeing this, the old lawyer Franworth couldn't help but chill behind his back.
How can this matter be right or wrong?
Heather's cousin was naturally wrong for killing many people in the town.
Several of Heather's elders did not stop, and even participated in it, which is naturally wrong.
The people in the small town were indiscriminately indiscriminate, regardless of the Sawyer’s willingness to surrender the murderer to go through the judicial process, and directly slaughtered the Sawyer’s family. Among them, the innocent people were implicated, such as Heather’s mother and some family members who had not done anything. Afterwards, the people in the small town laughed and took pictures with a broken leg, which was even more wrong.
Both sides are wrong, and the wrong is obvious, how can it be said that there is no right or wrong?
Obviously, there is one more thing Heather didn't say, that is, there is no right or wrong in this matter, only blood and blood!
The old lawyer Franworth deals with people every day, so how could he not be able to tell.
"Heather..."
The old lawyer Franworth suppressed the throbbing in his heart and persuaded: "Let the past pass, your grandma Rila let go, you should let go, otherwise your situation will be very dangerous. This is Texas. ..."
This is the second time he has said this. It is conceivable that the simplicity of the Texas folkways has left him a deep impression.
He even had no doubt that once Rila asked him to go through the legal process, he and Rila might be silenced before going to court.
In such a small town, it is very easy to go up to the mayor, the police, and down to the townsfolk. Almost all stand on the same front and kill a few people.
There are many more terrifying things in many remote places in the United States. In the end, they turned into horror stories and legends, but no one was investigating the truth and seeking justice.
Let alone Texas.
Even if it is exposed and attracts federal attention, it is estimated that the red necks in Texas will be able to give a hard top back.
Big deal, if I don’t play with you, can’t I be independent?
What every household in Texas likes most is not the American flag, but the state flag of Texas. Do you think the title of Lone Star Republic is just for fun?
Therefore, unless it is a very powerful force, such as the direct arrival of the commander, or a superhero and super villain to help Heather, this problem is completely unsolvable.
"I know."
Heather smiled: "Is there anything else I need to know?"
The old lawyer Franworth was shocked and frightened by Heather’s smile. He said in his heart: "Sure enough, it is the blood of the Sawyer family. Even if he is adopted and grown up, he is exposed to this kind of thing for the first time. It's crazy, it's terrible."
Thinking of this, he forced a smile and said, "All I know is this. For the rest, look at the letter your grandma Rila wrote to you."
"Okay, thank you very much."
Heather thanked him sincerely.
"No, this is what I should do."
The old lawyer Franworth said with a strong smile: "Then I will go first. If you have something, you can contact me."
"Yes, I will."
Heather nodded.
Old lawyer Franworth got in the car and drove slowly away from Sawyer Manor. From the rearview mirror, he saw Heather standing there, opening the envelope left by Rila, and watching blankly.
"Ugh."
With a long sigh, he stepped on the accelerator and accelerated away from here.
He is a lawyer, and he is only responsible for dealing with clients' legal affairs. He can't control and don't want to control other things.
Just as when Rila told him that Heather's cousin was a perverted murderer and lived in the basement of the manor, he didn't call the police, but regarded the customer's privacy as tight-lipped.
"I hope I can see her again..."
After the old lawyer Franworth left, Heather opened the envelope. Inside was a letter and a pendant necklace. The pendant on it coincided with the scar on her chest.
At this moment, there is no doubt in Heather's heart that she is indeed the blood of the Sawyer family.
"Dearest granddaughter, this manor and everything is yours, but these gifts are accompanied by some burdens. Your real name is Edith Ross Sawyer."
Heather opened the letter and saw it read: "Of the keys I asked Franworth to give you, the largest one is used to open the underground wine cellar, where you will find an iron door with Your cousin, Jeb Sawyer, your only remaining blood relative, he is family and will protect you.
Of course you have to take care of him and meet some of his basic needs.
Edith, you are the last bloodline of the Sawyer family. Whether my bloodline stays is up to you, but remember, this is your home. "
After reading the letter, Heather sighed heavily. He repeated everything in his mind as a whole. He stood there for more than ten minutes before picking up the necklace pendant inherited from the family and putting it on his own. On the neck.
The pendant on the necklace disappeared instantly.
Seeing this, Heather hurriedly took it out, swayed and swayed, making sure that the pendant on the necklace was placed in a prominent place outside, and then pressed the code of 0819, waited until the door opened slowly, and drove in.
Obviously, she has made the final decision.
There is no right or wrong, only hatred.
If you can't talk about the law, you can only pay for the debt.
God says: A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.
Not to mention, she is also a good Texan.
What is a good Texan? Shelton's mother Mary has already concluded...
