Red Dead Redemption Dawn

Chapter 15: Shilan Trading Post

Beecher's Wish is located on the outskirts of Heishui Town in a not-so-fertile pasture surrounded by mostly bare grass, and it is also close to the Shilan Trading Post and the Tall Tree Forest.

When John came to Beecher's Wish, he saw a house that was not completely burned. It seemed that there was a rain shortly after the burning. There were many places that were not burnt clean, and there was even a room that was only burned by the fire. After burning for a while, the contents inside were not even burned much.

In the corner of a room, John found a photo frame for a family photo under the iron basin. It was a family of four. In addition to Triss, there was a good-looking couple and a cute-looking little boy. Boy About eight years old, he was sucking with a piece of milk, and it looked like the previous family of four was very happy.

"Hey, who are you." Just as John put away the photo in the frame, a voice came from outside the room.

When John heard the news, he saw three homeless people dressed in poor clothes. They were holding wild rabbits they didn't know where to catch them, and some wild vegetables. They seemed to be making a delicious rabbit boiled wild vegetables.

"How long have you been here? Were you near here before?" John turned and asked friendly.

"We didn't do it. In fact, we helped put out part of the fire, buried the three bodies, and erected a tombstone for their family of three." One of them explained by looking at the double guns on John's waist road.

"I know you didn't do it. Have you seen that gang of robbers commit murder before? I'm a detective and I'm in charge of investigating this matter."

"Before we were in the nearby jungle, about five days ago, we were fishing by the river, and we heard gunshots coming from here around the evening, so Hart and I ran over to check, and by the time we got there, they were already there. They set fire to the house, and they took away everything of value in a carriage," said a guy who didn't care for his beard all the time.

"How many are they, and in what direction? Can you see what they look like?" John nodded and asked.

"Maybe seven or six, they drove two wagons and drove seven or eight cows and four or five horses." It's too close, but by the firelight I saw a guy take out a big gemstone ring from the house and put it on his left hand, it's worth at least $50." The homeless said enviously.

"Soon after they left, it started to rain. The three of us put out the fire with branches. At least it's much better here than in the jungle. Are you going to drive us away?" Han asked John.

"No, I'm not going to drive you away, at least you can use the house normally now, and they're going in that direction?" Then John asked again, "Did two police officers come and ask the same thing a few days ago? matter?"

"There were indeed two police officers who came, but they drove us away without questioning us. They just looked around and left."

"What a good police officer with due diligence." John couldn't help sneering.

"Actually, most of the nearby transactions are in the Shilan trading post. They can only ship these things there for sale. If you are looking for it, there must be some clues there." The homeless man named Hart said.

"Is it the Shilan trading post? Thank you, by the way, you buried the three of them there?" John wanted to go and have a look.

"It's in the woods over there, I'll take you there, sir." Longbeard led the way, and after a while, the two of them came to a clearing not far away, with a big bag of dirt and three signs in front, but the sign There is no tombstone on it, and there are several bouquets of wildflowers in front of it.

"Hey, take this." John took out five dollars and handed it to Bearded's hand.

"Thank you sir." The tramp was not polite to John either.

John didn't say anything after looking at it for a while, then John took out the map and checked it before heading towards the Shilan Trading Station.

The Shilan Trading Station is close to the Gaoshu Forest. It is the only supply station near Gaoshu and a transit point for the caravans. Therefore, a small-scale town has been formed here. There are not many bounty hunters here. Everyone knows that there are a group of perverts who enjoy killing people in Gaoshu Forest, so bounty hunters with better marksmanship can find good jobs here. .

Many convoys stopped and waited here, waiting for the next day to enter the tall tree forest after breakfast, and then head to Armadillo Town or Tumbleweed Town to trade and sell for profit.

It was already 2 p.m. when John came to the trade war.

"Hahaha~~" As soon as John arrived at the town, he saw a group of people bullying a modest, honest and honest guy. Four or five people poured water on his head with buckets and stepped on him from time to time. The man just silently endured, parried, but did not fight back.

"Hey! Let go of that poor guy." John glanced at it and couldn't help but speak.

"Oh huh~" A few people didn't take John seriously, just let him go when someone made a sound, and a few people patted John's horse provocatively, and then the four of them walked away laughing.

"Are you okay?" John dismounted and helped the guy up.

"Thank you sir." The man thanked John behind him.

"I didn't do anything." Then John looked at the men, "My name is John, what's your name?"

"Kane."

"Have you lived here for a long time?"

"When I was a teenager, I made a living here, seven or eight years, sir."

John nodded, "Do you know who is here to help with some shady things?"

Kane looked at John and said nothing.

"It's just some stolen or robbed cattle and sheep, you know?" John continued to ask.

"Know, sir, do you need to deal with something? You don't look like that kind of person." Kane looked John's eyes seriously and said.

"I want to inquire about something, not to deal with it. But I need to ask the person who deals with it." John explained.

"The group of people just now, they belong to the Norren family, and the Norren family is responsible for dealing with the things that are not easy to sell at the Shilan Trading Station."

"Kane, what are you doing?" John asked, looking at the honest and honest white man.

"There are many caravans here, they have a lot of problems, and I know this place very well, so they will all pay for it to reduce the time they waste." Kane introduced his profession.

"Kane, I think we can find a place to talk, I also have some questions." John patted Kane's dirty shoulder.

"Okay." Kane nodded after seeing John's eyes.

"Kane, I'm investigating a matter. About four days ago in the early morning, a group of people drove two carriages, seven or eight cows and a few horses. I want to know their final whereabouts." En and John are now in the attic of Kane's house, and John chats about the purpose of his visit.

"Are you a detective at the police station?" Kane asked.

"I'm a bounty hunter."

Hearing the answer, Kane nodded and said, "There were too many teams passing by a few days ago, I can't remember so many people, but if their stuff is for sale, and it's not good The one for sale, then the Norren family must know, I can inquire for you, but I need some money."

"Are you sure? They treated you like that just now." John thought of the guys who bullied him.

"They pick an unpleasant bully almost every day, and they just picked me today." Kane shrugged indifferently.

"How much do you need?"

"It depends on what you need. If you need to know a little more in detail, then you have to pay a little more. After all, these guys are not easy to mess with." Kane pondered for a while and didn't offer an offer.

"You're right, I wish I could tell me where they were or where they went."

"$150, after all, I also need to give someone a copy. I will help you find out their last move, and if I don't find the result of this value, I will refund a part to you." Kane pondered for a while and quoted the price.

"No problem, if you can find the exact location and how much it cost, tell me I'll supply you." John nodded and happily gave him $150.

"Okay! Mr. John, I'll go ask you now. I guess I'll find out tonight at the latest. You'd better stay in one place during the period, otherwise I won't be able to find you."

"I'll rent a room in the hotel opposite, and I'll explain to the waiter. When you arrive, just ask John." John nodded.

"Well, Mr. John, when I find you, I'll knock on the door and tell you 'Mr. John, please,' remember it must be your name, 'Mr. John, please.' If it's anything else, it's proof that something happened to me, Just run away." Kane finally reminded.
