"Thank you, Sergeant, for coming to our rescue. Although I still have doubts about the last 20 dollars of compensation, we are not unreasonable. It is not easy to understand your difficulties and maintain the security of a town. Things. "When Bucks left, Wendy said to the sheriff.
The latter was amused by the words of a little grown-up girl, smiled, "I'm glad you understand and cooperate with my work, ma'am, your father is not so reasonable ..."
However, afterwards, it seemed to realize that he had missed his lips, and an expression of annoyance appeared on the old cowboy's face.
"Wait, you know me and my father, how is this possible?" Wendy's eyes widened.
"My father and I are friends. He loves you so much and showed me pictures of you several times." So far, the sheriff had to admit it.
"But I never heard my father mention you."
"Well, maybe it's because each of us has a story that we don't want to mention."
"What happened?" Wendy asked.
"I'm afraid I don't want to mention it means that these things do not want to be known to others." The sheriff said.
"Please, my father is missing now, most likely related to what you said." Wendy said.
"Your father disappeared, when?" The sheriff chuckled.
"I don't know the exact time. Just fifteen days ago, he said he had a business deal and left the house. My mother and I thought this time was the same as usual. He would be back in a few days. So was he. Tell us, but now that he has exceeded the deadline he promised, he still hasn't returned home. "
"So you ran out just for this? Wait, does your mother know that you are in Glen Town now?" The sheriff said with a glance at Zhang Heng.
"Mr. Zhang Heng is employed by me to help me find my father, and he is also responsible for protecting me on the way," Wendy said. "He is an excellent gunman."
"Really, the good gunmen I know are not very good, but those who don't have guns live longer."
"I don't agree with this. If I had a gun, what would have happened just now." Wendy said.
The old cowboy smiled and did not refute. Some things are not understandable by young people of this age. He said sincerely, "You should go home. He will handle your father's affairs. You only need to Just wait at home. "
"But unfortunately I'm not the kind of person who sits at home honestly and waits for something bad to happen and then accepts it." Wendy stubbornly said, "If the storm comes, I will walk into the storm Chinese, so whether you want to help me or not, I will continue to look for my father. "
"But you are only twelve."
"Twelve is old enough, sheriff."
The sheriff said dumbly, after a long while, "Otherwise, I still have some important things on my hands. I can't get away. Give me a week and I will go to your father for you."
"Thank you for your kindness, but I have been delayed for a long time, I'm afraid I can't wait another week. I think it's better for me to do this myself." Wendy politely but firmly refused.
"IMHO, Wendy, you're too young to understand the world, especially those ... dark corners, knowing and knowing, you can't just pull someone on the road with him." Sheriff This time it was straightforward.
"Mr. Zhang Heng is a good person. I don't need to live to be as old as you. I can see it, but you, Mr. Sergeant, you suddenly appeared and claimed to know my father, but my father never I mentioned you, how can I believe what you and you say. "Wendy paused." Maybe my father's disappearance may be related to you. "
"Well a sharp tooth." The old cowboy was not angry when questioned, but instead laughed. "Matthew gave birth to a good daughter, well, it looks like I can't stop you, madam, but please at least tomorrow Let me send you a ride when you set off. You have just offended Cruise. He and his former ranger friends still have a lot of power in the vicinity. "
"Thank you, sheriff, when I find my father, I will tell him what you did to clear me tonight."
…………
When this happened, Wendy couldn't continue to inquire about his father's whereabouts at the bar, bid farewell to the old cowboy sheriff, asked for two apple pie, and went back to the hotel with Zhang Heng.
"You should listen to him." Zhang Hengdao, "Now it seems that there may be something hidden behind your father's disappearance. Since he is hiding from you, he does not want to let you know."
"That way you won't get your reward."
"I can make other rewards to make money," Zhang Heng calmly said, "Also, remember what I said before?"
"You told that guy that you have the ability to never leave the county seat?"
"Not that sentence. Earlier, I told you not to get in trouble. You promised me that I would let you go to the bar to investigate."
"I didn't get in trouble, I said, he touched me first," Wendy emphasized.
"Then you turn around and take out your knife, planning to strangle him?"
"My father told you that when you are the shortest person in the room, the toughest person, you have to be the toughest, so that other people dare not mess with you, because they know that it will cost you ~ www.novelhall. com ~ Then you were pressed on the table and almost cut your palm, "Zhang Heng stopped, looking at Wendy's eyes," Hey, boy, listen, I can't guarantee every time It happened exactly when you were most at risk. You could have come back to me to deal with it. "
Wendy was silent for a moment and said, "People in the town don't like our family. Dad is often absent. Mom is illiterate. I am used to solving everything by myself."
"But didn't you just pay me to let me solve these things for you?" Zhang Hengdao, "You must assure me that if you encounter such a thing, don't be so reckless, otherwise I will treat you send home."
"There was an agreement between us, and you promised to help me find my father," Wendy protested.
"Yes, when the agreement also stipulates that everything should be listened to, so this means that when I shout, we have to stop, and when I think we can't go any further, we go home . "
"It's too cunning," Wendy said dissatisfied. "It's just a fool."
"You understand it so well. Come and tell me now, sir, I know I'm wrong, and I will choose another way to solve the problem in the future."
"........."
"You'd better hurry up or I'll leave you to that sheriff, and it looks like he's interested in sending you home."
"I know I'm wrong, and I will choose another way to solve the problem in the future." Wendy twisted her neck and reluctantly whispered.
"Very well, I'm glad we have reached a consensus again. Take your share of apple pie back to the room to eat. We will have to get up early in the morning and set off on the road." Advances must be recorded in your account and paid to me at the time of settlement. "
