Chapter 122 The Reliable Hanif

Hernandez hasn't figured out how to contact the Astor family to ask for ransom.

Astor III was already furious in the office.

The news that his baby son disappeared reached New York on the same day.

The news was sent to him by the housekeeper using an expedited telegram.

The housekeeper was blocked in the scholar's room and then wrapped in an ordinary car by a group of "unarmed" detectives Pinkerton.

"Where is the young master?" The "elites" of Pinkerton.

"He's still in the room, right?" Bisping, who had just become the leader, replied blankly. Astor's safety work was arranged by Russell, and he knew nothing about it.

After the train stopped, the butler immediately ran to the carriage at the end, but it was empty inside.

The housekeeper immediately told Colonel Crook about the news and asked his cavalry team to help him find his master.

Colonel Crook said righteously:

"Mr. Astor is most likely taken away by those Indians. Don't worry, I will do my best to pursue them, and at the same time I will try my best to rescue Mr. Astor."

If it were someone else, the heirs of the Astor family disappeared in their own jurisdiction, it would definitely be a major event.

But Crook is different. As a top student who graduated from West Point Military Academy, he has his pride.

It is precisely because of this that he is the worst in his class.

Compared to Aster, he was more concerned about the whereabouts of his old opponent, Geronimo.

If you chase the Indian, you will definitely kill him. As for the life and death of the rich young master, it has something to do with him.

How could the old butler, who was skilled in personnel, not see what Crook was thinking? After the train arrived in Santa Fe, he immediately took the telegram to the base camp of the Astor family in New York.

"Waste, all waste!" Astor III was furious. His precious son was the only heir to the family designated by his son.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for his son, he might not have been in the position of the head of the family.

The biological son must find a way to find him, immediately! Now!

The trash of Pinkerton himself can't believe it now; through his own political relationships, the emperor is far away, and the person in charge of the Arizona Military Region is obviously unreliable.

Ast III was looking for someone who could help in his mind, while carrying a telegram to the housekeeper.

I can only ask the butler in New Mexico to find a way first.

He wrote quickly.

"John! John!"

The secretary outside the door was called in. Astor tore off the paper from the notebook in front of him, then turned around and took out a check from the safe, filled it with a number, then stamped it, and handed it to him.

Secretary.

"Transfer the five thousand dollars to the housekeeper and send him a telegram according to this content."

The housekeeper who was still at the train station and waited for news received a telegram from Asther III, which was surprisingly simple:

I will find reliable people in the local area to do things cheaply, and the fees have been transferred, so I will contact you if I don’t have enough.

The butler looked desperate.

A reliable person? Where can a reliable person come from this unfamiliar ghost place?

If his young master was really in the hands of the Indian God of War, the US Army had no choice but to deal with them. The Pinkerton Detective Agency, known as the No. 1 Security Company, was collectively confiscated by them, what could they do?

He dragged his heavy steps towards the platform.

When he passed by the platform, he passed by two people. One of them had a raised beard and the other looked like a minor.

Hanif and Downey were also on the terrace. After they brought the yellow cowboy hat to the nearest town, they indeed saw the man's reward notice on the bulletin board at the door of the security office.

So, when they walked out of the gate of the public security office, they were in a very happy mood.

Because Hanif's hands are over $249.

"Boss, what should we do now?" Donnie asked the bounty hunter who was still counting money happily around him.

"Shut up! I'm not your boss, our boss is on that train now!" Hanif corrected Donnie's statement seriously.

"What should I do? Of course I will continue to follow him!"

I have never seen such a good deal. I just shot a few times and charged one or two hundred dollars for errands.

Following this Chinese must have meat to eat, and if you eat meat to eat, you will be the boss.

They plan to go directly to the next stop of the train, the capital of New Mexico: Santa Fe, and wait.

However, when they finally saw the train entering the station, they were stunned.

Due to special reasons, Santa Fe became the terminal of the train, but until the passengers above got off, Hanif did not see Chen Jianqiu and others.

A curly middle-aged man walked out of the luxury carriage, Hanif looked familiar.

Isn’t this writer sitting next to him before with Chen Jianqiu? Why did he run to the back car?

Hanif was about to call him, but the housekeeper's voice came from behind:

"Mr. Mark Twain, I'm really sorry that something like this happened. I'm dealing with these tricky things here now and can't take care of you."

After the incident, Mark Twain became the first object of Crook's inquiry, because Chen Jianqiu, who disappeared with the Indians, was nominally his bodyguard.

But they quickly figured out that this was a misunderstanding, and the writers would not know Chen Jianqiu better than them.

"Do you want to try to call the police?" The writer held a box in his hand and gave advice to the butler with a sad face.

"It's useless. If it were those Indians, Colonel Crook had said he would help, and the police would not help at all. If it were those who pretended to be your bodyguard, the police would only offer them a reward for helping them out, and this kind of thing,

It's better not to make a big fuss."

The butler sighed.

"I can only find reliable local people to solve this problem. I am going to try my luck at the local chamber of commerce."

Hanif turned around and stood in front of the butler.

He had used the money Chen Jianqiu gave him to buy a brand new hat and a cool leather jacket. Before coming to the train station, he also sorted out his hairstyle and beard.

The housekeeper was talking to Mark Twain, and he didn't notice a person beside him. He ignored Hanif and continued to talk to the writer.

"Hey, sir, I just heard you say there is a kidnapping case to be dealt with?" Hanif gave up on attracting the housekeeper with his charm and said to him directly, "Do you want to consider me? I am an expert in this regard."

The butler then noticed Hanif and glanced at him suspiciously.

Donny took out the reward order that had been slapped in his arms and showed it to the butler: "We just caught a group of robbers on the train."

Mark Twain finally saw Hanif. He only knew that this man heard Chen Jianqiu's words, so he nodded: "Well, yes, this man is reliable."

The housekeeper was overjoyed and held Hanif's hand tightly: "I want to ask you."

"So, who is the person tied up?"

"My young master, I was in the same car as my friends before."

"Well, is there any clues to the person who kidnapped him?"

"It could be a team led by a group of Indians and a skin-changing Asian."

“emmmmm…”

Hanif fell into deep thought, his mind was spinning rapidly, and then he agreed.

The housekeeper made an appointment with Hanif to discuss the follow-up matters at the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce later, and he was going to the bank.

Hanif watched him leave with satisfaction.

"Hey, Chen is still ruthless. This guy looks very rich at first glance. Let's be a middleman and talk to Chen. It's not illegal."

Donnie's voice came from the side:

"But, we don't know where the boss and the others are now."
