New Gods of North America
Sheriff
Considering the possibility that the other party has accomplices, and in order to wait for the extraordinary materials to be extracted,
It was not until the next morning that they drove back to the town.
There is nothing good to be found on those "dead birds" that have died again.
The broken "Wendigo" and the manipulator behind it,
They each have their own gray-colored stuff.
Because Inesa has been providing exorcism bullets and high explosives, and she also used a special injection last night,
So she took away one of the crystals with a metallic texture.
Then Wayne and Lina divided the walnut-sized "brain" equally, and Lina fed it directly to Peter.
According to Wayne's previous investigation,
The operator should also have a carriage - which means he may have more property.
But the four-wheel drive vehicle drove around the scene several times and couldn't find it.
So I can only give up.
When the four-wheel drive returned to the town,
Because half of the shed was broken, the operator's body was supported by two thin branches and inserted at the rear of the carriage to block the wind.
It looks quite intimidating.
The stranger who had spread false information with Wayne in the pub before, saw Wayne's cool behavior,
I was a little impressed and asked while standing on the roadside:
"Is this some well-known wanted criminal?"
Wayne sat beside the carriage.
He hung up his police badge, then leaned over and shook his head:
“Hush! He is a foreigner who came here to rob the gold diggers after receiving the news.
"So you must keep the discovery of the gold mine a secret. You can only tell your closest family and friends."
The other party was stunned. "Has the news spread? There are already people from other places coming here."
Wayne's expression was serious:
"After all, it's something that can make you a lot of money, who wouldn't be tempted?
"So it is definitely the case that the sooner you act, the easier it is to get rich."
Wayne didn't know whether the other party was moved or not.
But after the carriage started moving again, Lina was definitely moved.
Her head was almost close to Wayne's face:
"Did they really find a gold mine? Where is it?!"
Wayne was convinced. "Weren't you there when I cheated him in the bar that day? Why are you asking me now?"
"Why should I eavesdrop on you two stinky men chatting?"
But Lina had already grasped the key words: "So you lied to him, huh."
Then she became curious again, "Then why did you lie to him?"
Wayne shook his head:
"I can't tell you. If I do, I'll be fined."
"provoke."
Although Inissa said that the manipulator's physical characteristics did not match the existing wanted warrants in the police station,
But Lina still didn't give up.
So everyone’s first stop was the police station.
As usual, Wayne wrote the case report and prepared some documents first, leaving Lina to work outside.
Inesa seemed to have recovered, but she was probably not fully recovered yet, so she sat quietly beside them and waited for the two men.
After finishing the homework, I took Lina away.
Finally, the four-wheel drive vehicle took the two people back to rest.
Wayne finished eating and picked up the small piece of "brain" from the Wendigo platter.
"Ten Dogs" were earned, the blue bar rose slightly, there was no sadness or joy.
Then he rode on Little Chestnut Hat and continued strolling around the town.
Jobs like sheriff,
You may have nothing to do at ordinary times, but you cannot lack a sense of existence.
So, like Wayne recently did, he would bring back some criminals from time to time, and wander around the town when he had nothing to do.
The townspeople will feel that he is doing his job well.
And it's a good job.
…
Passing by the town hall,
The mayor had Wayne called to his office.
The first topic of conversation was about replacing a new sheriff for the town.
The mayor handed over a small glass of brandy and sat on the sofa to chat with Wayne:
“You’ve been quite active recently, and your qualifications and abilities as a peace officer have been recognized.
"Since you are going to attend George and Anna College in Virginia, you might as well consider the next sheriff as soon as possible."
Virginia, where George and Anna College is located, is located on the east coast of the New World and is one of the original thirteen states of the American Union.
To be more specific,
Washington, D.C., the capital of the Commonwealth of America, is actually within the territory of Virginia - although it is not under its jurisdiction.
It is impossible for the sheriff of a small town to allow a person who traveled halfway across America to study to continue to hold a concurrent post.
After Wayne received the college's acceptance letter, he had already anticipated that he would not be able to serve as a sheriff for long.
That's why when he had nothing to do recently, he was willing to fulfill his duties as a sheriff.
I just didn't expect it to come so soon.
The mayor took a sip of brandy:
"I'm not asking you to resign immediately, after all, there is still some time left.
"As for the specific successor... have you considered who to recommend? You know, since you and Benjamin have done a good job, your recommendation for the sheriff will still carry some weight."
Wayne doesn't think this is a subjective question.
So he asked directly for the answer, "Mayor, do you have any suggestions for candidates?"
The mayor shook the cup in his hand:
"Personally, of course, I hope you can continue to do this. When the town is upgraded to a city, it will be a good qualification for you to become the first city police chief.
"Unfortunately, judging from the time, you probably won't have graduated by then, so it will be too late."
The mayor said this.
Then he turned his head and looked at the map of America on the wall:
"As for the other candidates...Mrs. Taylor recently intended to donate a sum of money to set up a small charity foundation to support outstanding college students in the town.
“And Mr. Greenspan has recently been repenting for his involvement in a small-scale evil organization and wants to make more contributions to the town.
“So he planned to bring Mr. Stern with him to invest in the construction of the town’s future steam train station, so that the steam train can run directly to the town as soon as possible.
"Personally, I think the candidates they recommend are similar, and I'm slightly more optimistic about Taylor. But who to recommend specifically depends on your own political inclination, Wayne."
On the one hand, it directly subsidizes education, and on the other hand, it promotes the growth of land prices.
The evil corruption of money...
Wayne noticed that the mayor mentioned the word "political inclination" and thought about it for a moment:
“Then why not recommend little Taylor.
"He is also an 'old town resident' who grew up in the town and is familiar with the townspeople. He is now the manager of the mine and has a surplus of staff under him. As the successor to the sheriff, it shouldn't be a problem."
“Hmm…”
The mayor nodded. "I also think that Taylor is a good guy. Then at the meeting, I will propose the candidate you recommend."
As for the other candidate,
The mayor didn't say anything, and Wayne didn't ask.
Kansas is about to become a state, but it is still unclear whether it will become a "free state" or a "slave state."
But now even strangers in the tavern have started spreading the news,
Just in case,
It would be more reassuring to put a position like sheriff in the hands of someone you are more familiar with.
