Wilderness Redemption Tour

Chapter 305 Colm's Death

Aunt Susan was also an old hand, so how could she not hear the hidden meaning in Hosea's words? He was praising her and Dutch in reality, secretly mocking her and Dutch's stubbornness and conservatism.

But there was one thing she agreed with what Hosea said, that was before dealing with Molly, she should at least find out whether what she had just said was true or false.

Thinking of this, Aunt Susan buckled up, put away her shotgun, looked at Hosea's weathered face that vaguely showed his youthful appearance, and said with seven parts of anger and eight parts of dissatisfaction: "You old man... After so many years, your ability to irritate people is still the same as before."

After that, she handed the shotgun in her hand to Hosea, and walked empty-handed to Molly, who was in great fear, and said to her with a stern face: "After you sober up, I want to hear the truth about what happened today, the truth without any processing or embellishment. My attitude towards you from now on depends entirely on your performance. If you want to live, then tell me all the news you have concealed that is detrimental to the gang!"

Molly nodded her head in extreme fear. It was so difficult for Aunt Susan to give in on this matter that she wanted to tell all the secrets in her heart, but Aunt Susan flatly refused on the grounds that she was still drunk.

After slightly threatening Molly, Aunt Susan turned her attention to the gang members who were watching. "Have you seen enough? If you have, go back to work! Everyone, don't even think about being lazy! Pearson, can't you smell that your meal is burnt? Tilly, there are still piles of clothes waiting for you to wash. You are not allowed to go to bed until you finish washing them! Mr. Strauss, I want to count how much money we have in our account. When will you give me the figures?"

The gang members who were watching dispersed in a hurry. It was a farce that was not really a farce (at least it was a farce in Lin Yan's opinion. How could they kill people just because someone told a lie that was not beneficial to the gang? Anyway, he, a modern man, could not understand it). It ended with Aunt Susan's temporary compromise. The danger warning about Molly was lifted, but Lin Yan knew that the matter was far from over. As for how the matter would develop in the future, it would depend on Molly's performance.

If there was one thing Lin Yan feared the most, it would definitely be the internal fighting of the Van der Linde Gang. If that really happened, he couldn't imagine what kind of tragic ending this group of brothers and sisters who originally loved each other and were as close as a family would face.

However, in a situation like today, when most people decided to ignore it and only a few people shared the same idea as him, if Aunt Susan really wanted to force Lin Yan and his gang, they couldn't stop him. They couldn't turn against the entire gang just because of Molly, a marginal figure in the gang, right? Arthur and Hosea would definitely not do that, leaving Lin Yan alone, so he had to give up even if he didn't want to.

Molly herself experienced the ups and downs of life in just a few minutes, from wanting to die when she was drunk at the beginning, to her sudden realization after being awakened by two slaps from Sadie, to her fear when she really faced death. So when it was all over, she looked particularly tired.

At this time, Molly's drunkenness had almost been sobered up by the cold sweat she had just broken out of. She knew that the reason she was able to survive today was all thanks to Lin Yan, Arthur and Hosea, so she expressed her gratitude to them as soon as she recovered.

"Don't thank us yet." Hosea waved his hand. "You should think about how to face Ms. Grimshaw tomorrow. Also, although I know it's unlikely, I still want to remind you not to even think about escaping. It's best not to even have the idea. Because once you leave the camp, your identity as a traitor will be confirmed. At that time, not to mention Ms. Grimshaw, everyone here can kill you."

Arthur's reply was rather tactful. "Don't say so much. You should go back and have a good rest. If what you said today is proven to be completely false, you will still have no problem staying alive."

"Hmm..." Molly nodded slightly, and then passed by Dutch without saying a word under his gaze. She could understand Dutch's inaction just now, but understanding was understanding, which did not mean that she did not feel upset about it.

Dutch also said nothing. He glanced at Molly's departing back, then turned and nodded slightly to Lin Yan and the other two, as if to express his gratitude.

"Dutch." Just as Dutch was about to leave, Arthur called him.

"Anything else?" Dutch turned around.

Arthur smiled at him, "Good news."

"Oh?" Dutch's curiosity was aroused. He slowly took out the cigar box from his vest pocket, opened it, took out a cigar and held it in his hand. "Tell me about it."

"Tomorrow is the day of Colm O'Driscoll's execution. I heard about it from the St. Denis police station. Don't you want to witness this guy's death with your own eyes?"

Dutch also laughed when he heard this. He closed his eyes and took a deep puff of his cigar. After the pleasant gas circulated in his lungs and was expelled from his body, he opened his eyes and said, "It is indeed good news. But as far as I know, that guy has been on the gallows many times, but he is still alive and well. As his old friend for many years, I feel it is my obligation to see him off in person this time."

"Me too," Arthur agreed. "I won't feel relieved until I see his neck broken."

"When is the execution? The O'Driscoll Gang disappeared so suddenly. I know without thinking that they must be planning something big. In order to ensure that there will be no more accidents during the execution, we have to make some preparations in advance."

"Tomorrow morning."

"I see..." Dutch lowered his head and thought for a moment, then waved to Josiah.

"Josiah, you go to St. Denis now and get a police uniform for me and Arthur. You must get it before dawn tomorrow. After getting the clothes, you will get a room in the hotel closest to the gallows and give the clothes to us there."

"No problem." Josiah agreed casually, "But I need some activity funds. Police uniforms are not easy to get. I have to find someone to arrange it..."

Before Josiah finished speaking, Sadie, who was standing by and listening to the conversation, stepped forward and volunteered: "Dutch, I want to go too. I want to see what kind of boss can train such a bunch of bastard subordinates."

"Okay." Dutch knew the grudge between Sadie and the O'Driscoll gang, so he nodded and agreed to her request without hesitation.
