Chapter 44 Killing the Enemy, Surrender and Interrogation (Part 2)

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid who would believe your nonsense?!"

Sherman banged the table and roared.

"You better tell me the truth, you native! Do you think I dare not kill you? It seems that only dead natives are good natives! And this lady, you haven't said a word since the beginning, Are you mute?!"

Sherman's temper was as explosive as rumors say. He was very hostile to Paine, who had a similar skin color to the natives, and even refused to see Scarlett.

"This guy is really a racial element with a bad nature. No wonder the ugly people of Blue Star in his previous life called him a butcher and executioner."

Paine secretly said that he originally wanted to use his ability to confuse this grumpy butcher general, but the two men dressed as priests behind Sherman had a vague sense of threat. Thinking of the information that the zombies released by the players when they attacked the city were taken care of by the army priest "Holy Word", Paine gave up his previous plan. The clergy in this world obviously have special supernatural powers like witches. If the control of Sherman is discovered, he will be really doomed.

"General Sherman, I'm a friend of Petey's."

Scarlett Hao finally spoke, "The truth is just as my housekeeper said. Because of the war, my housekeeper and I are going back to our manor. I still have two young sisters in the manor."

"Pete's friend?"

Sherman raised his eyebrows, "How could I..."

A younger priest behind him spoke a few words into Sherman's ear, interrupting Sherman's speech.

"Okay, just now my priest reminded me that Petey had told me before that she had a friend who was going out of town. Are you the eldest daughter of the O'Hara family? Why hire an aborigine as a housekeeper?"

"Our family has no prejudice against the indigenous people. Black slaves are too stupid to be useful. They can do menial jobs such as picking cotton and driving cars, but it is too difficult for them to be housekeepers. And it is impossible for serious white people to condescend to If you want Yugui to be a housekeeper for a mud-legged person like us, then a clever aborigine will be very suitable for our family."

"Okay, what you said makes sense. The black people are indeed too stupid. The nobles on the old road can't find many reliable white housekeepers. Looking at those cunning natives, there is some merit."

Sherman looked thoughtfully at Paine.

"Okay, I just went too far. I need to know some details. How did Rhett Butler and those mysterious people get involved?"

"At that time, the lady and I were packing the carriage in the warehouse, and we heard someone fighting outside. The lady knew that one of them was Rhett Butler. He led two of his men and fought with two other people. The lady and I were scared to death. So I found a relatively strong place to hide it, and I don’t know how they fought, but after an explosion, the scene became clear, so I think they died together.”

Paine was an expert at telling lies. Sherman the Butcher is certainly not someone who is easily deceived, but the smarter he is, the more he will deceive himself.

To Sherman, Rhett Butler was a traitor who turned against him and turned against him, while those mysterious men were thieves who got involved with the Southern rebels and then turned against them. No matter what the outcome of their fight was, Sherman They were all happy to see the result, but what made him unhappy was that no one was caught alive. At the moment, he knew nothing about the details of those mysterious people.

As for the two surviving masters and servants, one is a thin native and the other is a young lady who looks pampered. It makes perfect sense for the two of them to hide in a fight.

Because of Rhett Butler's previous betrayal, Sherman knew that Pitty had been in contact with the Southern rebels outside the city. But Sherman didn't think it was anything. It was just a woman. Keeping the discovered traitor was more useful than killing her. What's more, because of the mysterious man's rebellion, the leaders of the southern rebels are now controlled by the mysterious man, and Pitty has no reason to go against the Federation. The two people in front of him were probably just ordinary friends of Petey, and Sherman couldn't see anything wrong with them even after pressing for a long time.

"I need to verify what you said. First, I have to admit that you are temporarily staying here. In addition, I need to send someone to verify your identity with Petey before making a decision. Before that, you are not allowed to leave the station for even half a step. !”
