He went to a hotel where Lee was staying and asked him questions about his father's death again.
"I rushed to your place in a hurry because of i want to ask you a favor, it is a private affair"
"You are more than welcome what is it? Spill it out" Lee smiled.
"Have you ever heard of a Russian armed squad?"
"A Russian armed squad?"
"Exactly, the gunners of that squad have wonderful marksmanship and the squad is quite well- known a dozen years. They live on the pay of protecting businessmen"
"Some Russian military officials fled to California after the breakout of the October revolution in Russia. Among them, some did go back to their profession and made a living out of it, why do you bring this up all of a sudden?"
"Mr Lincoln hired a Russian armed squad back in the past. They used dumdum bullets, The most coincidental part is that they and my father arrived in Ricoland at the same time"
"I got your point but Richard coincidence always happen in this world. Maybe it is not what you think"
"Yes i also hope it is just a coincidence But Mr Lee I'm so confused now since I've just known it i have no idea who i can talk about it with. So, i came to you who i could only think of"
Lee nodded, "Rest assured as long as they are still alive I'll help you find them"
"Thank you Mr Lee. Then i won't disturb you any longer. Thank you" Richard said, stood up and leave.
He slept in his office that day and decided not to go home because of he,doesn't want Arci to notice his bad mood.
Arci waited for him yesterday she refused to eat dinner.

The next day
Mr Lee called Richard and asked him to come, to meet him in Spring restaurant about the Russian armed squad.
Richard quickly drove there.
He meet him outside and they walked into a private room together.
"I asked my assistant to enqujre about the thing. Samson was a Russian soldier who fled to California back then and he was a famous sharpshooter"
They walked into the private room and he saw a foreign looking man already waiting for them.
"This is Commander Richard he wants to know which big shots you protected. Do you ever get in danger? Do you have any impressive record to prove your competence to work as a bodyguard of the commander?"
"I've been in California more than 20 years i was in charge of the security of many big shots in political and business orders for example Commander Yink of Ricoland, Mr Lincoln of Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce and so on"
"I'm not interested in those tell me more details about how you protected Mr Lincoln"
"We went ashore at Ricoland we found another group of soldiers Mr Lincoln found those were military governor Pepe's men. However the supplied we transported belonged to Military Governor Albert's. The other parties were our enemies for the sake of safety, Mr Lincoln ordered to fire when Military Governor Pepe's men were heading for the valley in a column none of them survived"
Richard clenched his fist tightly trembling.
He remembered how his father died, the photo he saw at the Lincoln residence.
He passed out immediately.
He dreamed of his wedding with Arci when he was about to kiss her her wedding gown turn red to the color of blood.
Then he dreamt of the battle that ended his father's life.
"Dad!" He shouted and wake up.
He found himself in his bed in the command.
When Lee saw that he woke up he took his hand and check his pulse.
"Mr Lee did i have a dream? Everything is a dream right?"
"Your pulse is racing" Lee said.
"Commander you sacred us so much you were calling dad in your dream"
"It was a dream" He said in a relieved tone, "I dreamed of that Russian man he said they fired at them "
Lee and Richmond stared at each other but they didn't say anything.
Richard noticed their strange behavior and looked at them.
He realized something, "It is not in my dream"
"Commander, Miss Arci called just now"
"Tell her I'm not available"
"But the Lincoln family are preparing for your wedding"
"You can leave now" Richard told them and lie on the bed his back facing them.
"Commander…"
"Get out!" Richard yelled.
"Let's go" Lee said and Walked out of the room.
Richmond followed him.
