Chapter IX Escort(2/2)

"It was Mr. Billy who took the risk to save us and escorted us all the way here."

"That's it," the guard immediately turned around and bowed to Billy on the black horse, and said, "Thank you, sir, for escorting the eldest lady here."

"It's better to say less boring polite words," Billy said coldly, "I hope to get my reward now."

"No problem, Mr. Billy," Lily smiled, motioned to Amandine to fetch her jewelry box, and took out three checks for one thousand US dollars from her body, saying, "These checks can be exchanged at any bank.

As for these jewelry, I just hope you can find a good appraiser so that their value will not be ruined."

"Thank you for your generosity, Miss Cornwall, although I don't recommend that you carry such a large check with you in our part of the world," Billy said, holding on to the brim of his hat, "I'll keep it soon. To be honest,

I’m not used to the smell here.”

Lily smiled and nodded: "Thank you again for escorting me all the way."

"Oh, by the way," Billy suddenly turned around as if he had thought of something, "If you really want to improve your marksmanship, I suggest you change to a more normal gun. Too weird modifications are not suitable for a gun.

For shooters, it often limits more than it helps."

Lily looked at the beautifully decorated revolver hanging in the holster on her waist. The key was the revolver that she had poured her heart and soul into. She was speechless and could only wave goodbye to this unexpected gunman.

The gunman never looked back, he just took off his hat and waved twice in return, steered the giant horse under his crotch in two circles, and then galloped away in the direction of the brilliant sunset.

The gunman's figure had disappeared on the horizon, but Lily still stood there with no intention of leaving.

"Miss? Miss?" Amandine called softly.

Lily ignored the call of the maid and just said to the guard on the side: "You guys, send a few people to follow him from a distance to see where he ended up, and then report to me in time."

"As commanded."

After receiving the order, the guards immediately left and prepared. Not long after, three fast horses carrying three men with loaded guns left the Cornwall Coal Tar Factory, following the footsteps of the gunmen.
