Post numero cuatro

In this next chapter the conspiring events develop into what appears to be the main storyline. So now the chapter begins with Sheriff Bell, making things more confusing. He is answering the phone to a Mrs. Downie who is in distress because her cat is in a tree and won't come down. After he convinces her that if she leaves the cat alone it will come down he gets a call over the radio. This one is slightly more important. This call is from a man called Torbert and there is something to do with a man dead in a trunk of a car. This gets very confusing as there seems to be some form of plot going on that they know of previously, as the sheriff comes with another man, Wendell,  and the three, Wendell, Bell, and Torbert talk about how Torbert needs to leave and take Lamar's unit back to Sonora. They also talk about the dead man who they know to be Bill Wyrick but they must treat the body as if they don't know him. When Bell arrives at the Sheriff's office in Sonora there is yellow tape is this office is the crime scene at the beginning of the book where the deputy is killed by Chigurh. Now the setting becomes more clear as the station that Bell went to is Lamar's from the beginning of the book and Lamar is the sheriff of Sonora who the deputy had called before he was killed. So now I'm rather certain that Moss was not the sheriff in the beginning of the story. In the story Sheriff Bell is also called Ed Tom by Lamar. As they talk they describe the deputy as a clean-cut 23 year-old  boy and that they believe this upcoming conflict is of a nature they haven't seen before. This cleared up the conflict slightly for me but other than Chigurh, I'm not sure who is good and who is bad in the novel. The chapter is broken into segments according to the characters in it. Moss returns to his home after a taxi ride has dinner and takes a shower. During dinner he tells his wife, who constantly asked him about his wounds, to go to Odessa and stay with her mother. He also must have managed to get the plates off his truck before he returned home. Chigurh questions a man at a local gas station about when he closes and flips a coin to determine whether to shoot the man or not. The proprietor of the station does not get the situation and even when he picks ticks and gets heads on the coin, he still doesn't get it. This shows how little Chigurh cares about who he kills and where he kills them. He then traveled to the place where the Broncos where and inspects the trucks and kills the two men that were still alive. This Chapter still left questions about who's who and the motivation behind characters actions but the main conflict seems to be coming into focus.
