48 Hours a Day

Zhang Heng walked a lot of roads in the past few days. After coming to the hotel, he took a hot bath, washed off the dirt on his body, and by the way, washed his clothes and left them on the window sill. At the local temperature, it was estimated that he could dry the next morning. When he woke up, he could change into clean clothes.

Without waiting for the sun to set, Zhang Heng took off his boots and lay down on the bed.

He didn't know how long he'd been asleep, but he certainly wasn't as long as planned, and when he woke up knocking on the door, it was still painted black.

Zhang Heng grabbed the revolver under his pillow in the first place and then leaned against the door, acting like a leopard, and asked, "Who? ”

“It's me, sir, Wendy. We just met in front of the grocery store this afternoon.” Humanity outside the door.

Zhang Heng did not open the door immediately, but frowned. "What are you looking for me for? ”

“I rethinked… your proposal this afternoon and I think you have a point.” Wendy Dao.

“What did I say? ”

Zhang Heng sorted out his messy hair slightly and quickly put on his pants that had not yet dried out. As for the top, he decided to hang it for a while.

“You said I had no interest in being directed by a kid. ”

“Yes, you've got my answer. You can go find someone else. By the way, do you know what time it is? ”

“5: 00 in the morning, sir.” Wendy replied, "I thought about it later and thought you could take full responsibility for this survey, I'm only responsible for providing advice, I don't know if that would satisfy you? ”

“Who comes in at 5: 00 in the morning to talk about things?” Zhang Heng beat up a debt.

“Sorry, I heard you fell asleep a long time ago, and if we get on the road sooner, we can get to Glen Town at night, I just hope to find my father's whereabouts sooner rather than later, especially when I think he might be in the wrong hands right now, I'm having trouble sleeping, please. ”

Wendy feels like she's waiting for a trial, and every second is extra long. After a while she heard something moving behind the door, Zhang Heng moved the chair of the top door away and said, “Come in, slow down. ”

Wendy smelled Yan Daxi and slowly walked in through the door as requested by Zhang Heng.

She saw Zhang Heng with a gun beside her, and her naked torso made her look twice.

Zhang Heng made sure Wendy didn't follow the others, and nobody hid in the stairs or anywhere. Finally, he put away the revolver in his hand and closed the door.

“Didn't your mother teach you not to go into a strange man's room at a time like this?” Zhang Hengdao.

“I can protect myself.” Wendy, seeing Zhang Heng seems unbelievable, she added, "If you want to do something to me, I will shout out at the first time, there are a lot of people in the hotel, and it is not far from the police station, the sheriff will be here soon, I am not very popular in town, but it depends on who you are compared to, isn't it, of course, I believe you are an honest and friendly person. ”

“You think too easily about the world. If I'm really the bad guy who wants to do something to you, you can't shout it out. You can't be so lucky all the time. The best way to protect yourself is not to put yourself in danger. ”

“$80... $80 plus your full discretion.” Wendy didn't want to get involved on this topic and raised the offer again.

Zhang Heng heard the story, but said, "By contrast, I wonder why you have to admit that I can't. As you said, you can totally hire other people for this price. ”

“I'm not sure they're credible.” Wendy was silent for a moment, "I didn't tell you something, my father offended Lawrence G. Murphy, he was the most powerful man in town, the town's grocery stores, bars, banks and hotels were all his, except for Sheriff Trail, who either worked for him or stood by him, which is one reason why I chose to come to you at this time, I don't know if my father's disappearance had anything to do with Major Murphy, and I don't want to be seen in frequent contact between us to avoid alarming him. ”

“Well, that really explains why you hired a foreigner like me to find your father.” Zhang Heng hummed, "but are you going to keep this from me? For 80 bucks to offend the actual rulers of the entire county, the deal is not a very good deal. ”

“No, sir, I was going to tell you along the way with everything else, and it's not as bad as you think, Lincoln County is big, and while Major Murphy is in charge in town, outside, the ranchers and miners are basically those who oppose him. ”

“Even so, this is still a loss book deal for me.” Zhang Heng poured himself a glass of water.

Wendy bites her teeth, "What about a good horse? We also have thirty horses on our ranch from which you can pick one, and I noticed that your horse is not a noble breed and is old. ”

Zhang Heng didn't know what it would feel like to hear herself so evaluated downstairs, but what Wendy said was true. Zhang Heng knew his own business. Even Wendy couldn't ride the red rabbit even now.

But a good horse is not cheap on its own, at least $890, and Wendy doubles it directly. This should be the last line for her, which was only a five-dollar, five-dollar price increase.

One hundred and seventy dollars is enough to think about it. This money has been Zhang Heng's life for six months. Anyway, even if he doesn't mess with the guy called Murphy, he won't like him because of his skin tone, and it shouldn't be much of a problem if he just looks for someone.

Zhang Heng thought about it and suddenly asked, "Do you know where the lucky horseshoe is? ”

“Ah?” Wendy was confused, wondering what Zhang Heng meant by the endless phrase, “You want horseshoes? ”

“Nothing, when I didn't ask.” Zhang Hengben was just listening to Wendy say that her ranch raised a lot of horses and asked, and he wasn't surprised that he didn't get the answer he wanted, "he said to Wendy.“ Go get some food. ”

“What do you mean?” Wendy was nervous.

“We'll be on our way after dinner. Didn't you say we'd be there at night? ”

“No, actually, it's a bit of a road, only a town halfway through the night.” Wendy sniffed Yan Big Happy, “I brought the food. I'll bring it right up. ”

“What about you, how are you going to get there and hire you a carriage? ”

“You underestimate the rancher's daughter, and I'll ride with you. ”
