Chapter 608 - I Regret It, So What? (2/2)
Although Zhang Heng drew his gun first, this incident happened in front of so many people. Bacchus did not believe that Zhang Heng would dare to kill him. Besides, he was still holding Wendy hostage.
However, Zhang Heng seemed to know what he was thinking. “I dare you never to leave this town for eternity!”
“What is that? Is that a threat?” Bacchus grinned.
He did not expect that he would be threatened by an outsider in his territory, even when he was the one in the right.
“The one who should be watching out is you,” Bacchus sneered. “You can ask around, who hasn’t heard the name, Bison Bacchus? My brothers and I served in the Fourth Rangers. You should be worrying about how to leave Glen alive.”
“Thanks for the reminder. It seems I’ll need to buy two more boxes of ammunition.”
As soon as his voice fell, the bar’s wooden doors were pushed open again. “d.a.m.n. Can’t you guys live peacefully around here? Why do you guys have to give me trouble every single day?” resounded a husky voice.
The person here was the sheriff of Glen Town, a good-looking elderly cowboy. Someone had gone to look for him when they saw how bad the situation had become.
“Oh, Bacchus. It’s you and your people again.”
The sheriff was not happy to see them.
Sheriff, it was not us who caused the trouble this time. I am the victim!” Bacchus then showed his injured hand to the sheriff.
“So you plan to cry all day like a woman just because of a tiny gash?” The sheriff then looked at Zhang Heng, “And you. You just fired your gun in my town. I have never seen another Chinese as brave as you. Are you planning to raise your gun all night?”
Zhang Heng put away the revolver when he heard the sheriff’s comment, intending to show that he harbored no malice.
The sheriff then stared at Bacchus again, to which the latte harrumphed, and asked his allies to let Wendy go. Immediately, Wendy ran to Zhang Heng’s side.
“Okay, I already know what happened here. Twenty dollars. After that, you both should shake hands and forget everything that happened,” the sheriff said.
“Twenty dollars is too little,” Bacchus protested. “My hand is severely wounded. I can’t work for at least two months, and I need her apology!” growled Bacchus as he pointed at Wendy.
“Shut up. If you want to continue to live in this town, you’ll have to abide by my rules!” the sheriff sternly implored. “I said, twenty dollars is more than enough. As for the apology…”
“I won’t apologize!” Wendy said. Although her life was hanging by a thread earlier, she still did not intend to go soft. Zhang Heng was a little curious now. How did she become so stubborn at such a young age?
The sheriff looked at Zhang Heng, who shrugged in reply.
“Don’t look at me. I think it’s fine to apologize. But as I said before, we just share an employer-employee relations.h.i.+p. I can’t order my employer to do what she doesn’t want to do.”
“Never mind the apology. Man up, Bacchus! Why are you bothered by a kid?” The sheriff raised his voice and bellowed, “So many people are watching you! What more, you used to be a f*cking ranger!”
