Wine and Gun

Chapter 357

At this moment, Herstal's side has returned to silence, and only regular breathing can be heard.

Albarino was silent for two seconds, then showed a smile that could even be described as quite happy.

He said, "Okay."

Herstalton took a second or two, then hung up. And Albarino listened to the busy tone for more than ten seconds before slowly putting away the phone.

As far as Slade knows, the people at A\u0026H Law Firm held a celebration dinner soon after the acquittal in court. It is not surprising that such a fantastic result will give their law firm a lot of visibility. A terrific victory. Holmes invited Slade to attend the celebration party, but he declined - the drinks and food were far from attracting him, and he had a lot to do.

Strictly speaking, this lawsuit is not over yet. Although Rowan blamed him for major events, the organization of selling yín is a sure thing, and even a fool would not believe that he really did not participate in it; so he is still carrying A suspended sentence and a hefty fine, plus hundreds of hours of social service or something, means he can't leave Westland freely, or he'll be absconded...but that doesn't matter, Stryder Can't believe his lawyers are stumped by this little stumbling block.

There is also the woman Wallis Hardy, who Slade suspects is desperately trying to disgust him, that guy actually encouraged Midaron Pullman to apply for a restraining order, does she think that it is now What else would Slade do to that kid?

But—Midalon, Midalon, that kid really has a pretty face, and Slade hasn't seen a face that suits his taste in years, and it makes him feel a little pity to think about it.

As he pondered all this, he sat in an easy chair by the floor-to-ceiling window, a glass of whisky in his hand, and stared at the flickering lights outside the window. This is not the house he lived in before. Although the house is no longer blocked, it can be imagined that the interior is covered with fingerprint powder. Slade is reluctant to go back, and he has more than one property in the city. .

He drank slowly, thinking about the little blond boy—and other more illegal images in his mind. When the drink was only a finger deep, one of his subordinates came in and reported that it was Here comes the warden.

Of course the warden came back. They are now in a delicate relationship of one prosperity and one loss. The warden and other "old customers" are still worried that he will be scared and dare to confess them all in court, listen. After he is released, of course, someone will be introduced to comfort him, and the warden is that person.

In fact, Slade didn't want to see these people very much. He was still worried about other things: that someone broke into the Sequoia Manor. There was nothing particularly shameful in the Sequoia Manor that night, but the people in his office That computer was factory reset after that night. Is this a coincidence or did an interloper do it? Did the intruder take something? What did he put in that computer?

That's what worries him the most, and it's more worrying than his trial. He expected that because he had too many secrets, those big men who had come to Sequoia Manor would not dare to let him be easily convicted, but the information in that computer was another matter entirely... The warden and other members I don't know that he secretly took some photos and recorded some videos to use as a trump card. If they knew, they would not be so lucky.

Before he was arrested, Stryder tried to investigate the intruder, but there was no clue. Now half of his men have been convicted, including Rowan, who is the most savvy. I don't know how long it will be delayed.

And, of course, Herstal Armalite - Slade was well aware that he had visited Sequoia Manor and chose Midalen that night, but Midalen said in questioning that he had never selected by any member. Stryder didn't even think about why Midalen told such a lie. Just like Aurelie's strange last words before her death, it constituted the biggest mystery in Amalette.

Slade can only bury such doubts in his heart. After all, although this fact can be used to prove that Midalen's testimony is suspected of lying in court, this matter involves his lawyers, and secondly— And most importantly, as a completely "innocent" member in this case, Slade should never know which member Midalen had entertained, so he could only keep his innermost doubts tight-lipped.

But the beaming warden who strode in had no idea what was on his mind, who thought he was in control.

"Mr. Slade, it's really a false alarm this time." The warden greeted him with a smile, "I and some old friends are very worried about you, no, I heard you were acquitted. here it comes."

——Perhaps it would be more accurate to say "I'm very worried about what you should say", Slade just showed the same smile and said: "It's just that my luck is very good. , I have a lot of good lawyers."

"By the way, speaking of lawyers." The warden suddenly said, took out a folder from the pretentious briefcase in his hand and handed it to Slade, "I asked someone to investigate the matter of Herstal Armalite. It's over, it doesn't look very surprising, but you also have a look--seriously, I thought he was someone who had a grudge against you and was going to hold back the lawyers, but he seems to be very reliable. Well, maybe we were overly concerned before."
