Chapter 96 Leave
"Ross." Sergeant Milton pushed back all the police detectives around and let them go their own way. Xiao Chou and Master Yi did not leave under his signal, but stayed where they were.

Sheriff Milton stared at the child he had brought up since childhood, his eyes were reddish, and tears seemed to be brewing in his eyes.

"I do not blame you."

Detective Ross, who was kneeling on the ground after being tied up, suddenly raised his lowered head, "Why, I obviously betrayed you."

He thought that Sergeant Milton might be disappointed and shot him dead here. He had already prepared for failure, but he never expected that Sergeant Milton would choose to forgive himself.

"I'm tired." The afterglow of the setting sun dissipated little by little, replaced by the moon peeping out quietly, "From tomorrow, you will be Valentine's new sheriff."

"Perhaps it's mine and I really should go home for the elderly?" Sergeant Milton's voice was unrecognizable. After all, these words were not addressed to other people, but to himself.

But where is his home?

When he was young, Sheriff Milton's father died in a burglary. He and his mother were shopping for food at the town's market. When the mother and son returned home, they found their father (husband) lying dead forever into a pool of blood.

Killed his father for just five dollars.

After that, there was a small mound not far from home, where his father was buried.

It was also at that time that Milton was motivated to become an excellent police detective, and he wanted to restore peace to the western region.

He began to grow up slowly, and his mother kept working hard for him. When he was less than 40 years old, his thick golden hair became very thin.

However, Sergeant Milton did not disappoint his mother. It only took him a few months to be exceptionally promoted to Sergeant of Valentine because of his outstanding achievements.

Just when he returned home happily, his mother was brutally killed by the desperadoes who came to seek revenge on him. On that day, he stood in a daze beside his mother's body for a long time.

After a few years, his reputation has spread throughout the West, becoming the most terrifying opponent among outlaws, only a few big gangs can deal with him, and for the first time he has his own family.

A beautiful wife and a newborn child.

Yes, just like what you think, during a hunt for a fugitive, he found that the fugitive had come to his home, and he didn't hear the crying of his wife and children when he entered, only the fugitive was laughing frantically.

At this point, he vowed that he would never have a family until the outlaws in the west were completely wiped out.

Since then, he no longer shows mercy to any desperadoes, and he no longer has a bottom line for any fugitives. He has experienced countless gun battles, been ambushed, betrayed, and injured, but none of these can defeat him , but Sheriff Milton didn't say a word, never shed a single tear, and was always fighting for his ideal.

A long time has passed, and the vicinity of Valentine has become a restricted area. No desperadoes dare to come to this place. Even so, the people in this town are still poor, and families are constantly falling apart. Sheriff Milton doesn't know what is happening. Why.

He couldn't figure it out.

Later, while patrolling the streets, a brave kid tried to steal his wallet. He recognized the kid, his name was Rose, an orphan who wandered here after his parents were killed by desperadoes.

At that time, Rose's hands were red from the cold, and his whole body was shaking. Detective Ross's heart softened, so he ignored him, but silently slowed down the patrol speed, so that this little guy could take his wallet more easily. .

In the end, Ross succeeded. Instead of leaving immediately, he stood there and said to Sheriff Milton, "You know what I'm doing, right? Why didn't you choose to arrest me?"

Sheriff Milton was stunned for a moment. He was a sheriff, and it was his job to catch thieves and criminals, and clean up the outlaws.

Later, he adopted the child named Rose.

And raised him as his own son, Ross learned quickly, just like himself at the beginning, and soon became an excellent police detective.

Sergeant Milton, who regards the police station as his home, does not have a house of his own.

Those were sold by him and exchanged for money, and then distributed to the local poor.

Days passed like this, Sergeant Milton was getting older, but he still didn't have a place to stay, so he didn't know what to do after he handed the sheriff to Rose.

At the same time, the boy from back then gradually grew up. He was younger and more energetic, but he was always under the wing of his adoptive father, and no one would remember his name.

More people will only talk about Sheriff Milton.

So he was not reconciled, he wanted to prove himself to Sheriff Milton, so he shot behind Sheriff Milton's back.

With a group of detectives who were willing to follow him, they were beaten up by the O'Driscoll gang. If Sergeant Milton hadn't arrived in time, Ross would not have been able to come back that time.

Because of this, Sheriff Milton was even more worried about handing over his position to Detective Ross, and time passed.

Until Dach fled, he hit it off with Agent Ross.

Everyone knows what happened next.

"...I'm sorry." Agent Ross, no, he should be called Sergeant Ross now. His purpose has been fulfilled, but he feels that something is missing in his heart.

Sheriff Milton... No, Mr. Milton threw the badge that symbolizes the identity of the sheriff to Rose casually, just like throwing garbage.

Then, Mr. Milton said the last words to Sergeant Ross, "I am old, and my ideals are entrusted to you."

Then, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Chou and Master Yi who were beside him, "You have been fired."

Xiao Chou and Master Yi seemed a little stunned, but what Sergeant Milton said next shocked them even more, "Now, as a bounty hunter, I invite you to arrest Dutch Van der Linde together. how?"

According to Xiao Chou's analysis, Dach is likely to leave here and go further away after successive defeats, so they originally had the idea of ​​resigning and catching up, but now Milton's proposal is exactly in line with their wishes.

Without even thinking about it, Xiao Chou agreed to Mr. Milton's words, "We are happy to serve you."

As if they had made an appointment in advance, the three of them got on their horses together and chased in the direction where the Van der Linde Gang left. No one cared about Sergeant Ross who stayed where he was.
