v2 Chapter 350： Wendy (1/2)
Three people who were alive not long ago turned into three corpses, hung under the wooden platform, motionless like dried salted fish, and after a long time, they were sure that they could not die anymore. Naturally, someone pulled the rope from them. Take off his neck and collect the dead body.
The drunk sheriff finished his work, dangled from the wooden platform, and climbed down again. From below, I saw the lively crowd dissipated, and talked about what happened just now, especially the one-armed man. What was said made many people worried, and for a while they could not even pay attention to the new Oriental in the town.
Zhang Heng also looked at the reward on the wall at this time. It was not particularly ideal. He could only pull the general in the dwarf and quickly wrote down the looks of several fugitives he might catch.
Afterwards, Zhang Heng took the carrot to the grocery store in the town, and the person who was watching him behind him also came out of the grocery store, but after a while, he didn't see Zhang Heng coming out of the grocery store. He was a little anxious, and he wanted to look inside with the probe, but he was afraid of being found, and the guy's horse was still outside the grocery store. It should not suddenly disappear.
Just as he hesitated, a voice suddenly sounded from behind him, ”Is that you secretly following me?”
Zhang Heng was also surprised after seeing and following.
Although the other party tried hard to pretend to be an adult, it looked like he was only eleven or twelve years old, with freckles on his face, and was full of childishness. No wonder he didn't notice it when he turned around and looked back.
”You are the sister of those two cowboys?”
”What cowboy ... Oh, you are talking about those guys, no, I have nothing to do with them, sir,” the girl said.
”Then why are you following me?” Zhang Heng stuffed daily necessities such as soap from the grocery store in the pocket next to the saddle.
”Please allow me to introduce myself. I ... my name is Wendy and my father is a rancher nearby.”
”So?” Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows.
”I saw that you were looking for a job. This is what happened. About two weeks ago my father went out to talk about a business. He said he would be back for up to ten days. But as you can see, so far It's over his deadline. ”
”Maybe something was delayed on the way.” Zhang Hengdao, since the freckled girl in front of her had nothing to do with the two cowboys, Zhang Heng didn't mean to embarrass her, and she turned around and was ready to leave with radish.
As a result Wendy saw him turn around and stood in front of him in a circle.
”No, my father has always been a very punctual person, and the town where he went also has a telegraph office. If he is really delayed by some accident, he will definitely send a telegram to me and my mother. ”
”and then?”
”Then he didn't do that. We have lost contact with him for a long time. Mom and I are worried about his safety.”
”I can understand your concerns, but shouldn't you go to the town's sheriff for this kind of thing?” Zhang Heng changed his direction, holding Radish past Wendy's side.
”I found Sergeant Terrell, but Sergeant Terrier reported to the police station in that town, and the other party replied that my father had left six days ago.”
”So, your problem is solved?”
”No, of course not. I think they are lying. This is obvious. If my father left six days ago, he should be home now, and he and I will telegram before he leaves.” Wendy followed Zhang Heng was excited behind him.
