Son of the Tower

Chapter 172 Torch Song Ⅰ

Standing in the living room, Ron looked at the two dead men on the ground and frowned—the guy who died by the wall was transformed with prosthetic bodies, and he didn't look like a good thing at first glance. As for the other guy, he Noticed that Captain Tang's face had changed.

Therefore, he was very curious whether this guy was a human or a ghost, but considering that Captain Tang was calling for someone to come over, it was obvious that he had no time to explain for himself, so Ron could only turn his attention to Lingguoer: "Sister Ling, this guy you do you know it."

"I know, Kane Tasman, big reporter." Ling Guoer reported the identity of the deceased.

"Sounds like a good guy, but why is he in the black market? He shouldn't be here to interview that guy today." Ron pointed to the prosthetic guy sitting on the sofa—his body was full of All kinds of tattoos, and his head was completely remodeled. Because of this, the bullet that shot in from the back of his head lost all its kinetic energy after it half-drilled out of his forehead, and was stuck there firmly.

"Probably not. He is Yagyu Nanami, a hacker of the Dead Eye Group. At least seven enterprise-level intrusions are suspected to be related to him. He has a bounty of at least 35. If he dies, he will have a bounty of 20." Ling Guoer Shaking his head, he introduced this dead unconventional guy to Ron: "Anyone who witnesses him, as long as he reports his location and thus helps the police catch him, he will be able to get a reward of at least [-] yuan." , I don’t think Kane Tasman, as a journalist with a conscience in the eyes of the public, would come to interview such lunatics, and the place they are in is too strange, why would they meet in the black market.”

"Then that is to say, our Mr. reporter has another side that is unknown, hey, I understand that." Ron said as he picked up a fruit from the table beside him and wiped it on his coat. Wipe it, then take a bite.

"Why do you understand again?" Ling Guoer gave him a blank look, but did not stop Ron, but rearranged the fruit basket.

"In Xilu, there are a lot of duplicity guys who cooperate with the police and have ties to the gangs. But this kind of guy is not good enough. It only needs one fatal false information. The gangster who has suffered will pass the false information The intelligence guy was killed, you know, in the Northern Union, the gangsters prefer to sink people into the Northern Sea; in the Eastern Kingdom, they will dig a hole anywhere to solve the problem; There are seas everywhere that can feed fish; while in the central region, there are too many primeval forests and old ruins, any place can swallow a small person, and as long as the police in the Westland want to do this, they only need one False information, there will be gangsters who can't afford to lose to help the Xilu police realize their dreams overnight."

"Did your father tell you all this?" Ling Guoer looked at Ron in front of him and sighed.

Ron nodded as a matter of course: "Of course my father said it. He also said that in the mission, you should never trust any outsider except your teammates. Just like now, if there is an outsider standing in front of me, I will be the first Release the safety of the gun for a while, and then point the gun in the direction where he is."

Linguoer watched Ron do this, and then she looked in the direction where the gun was pointing, and there stood an orc with round ears.

This is a bear man of the Bir tribe with short gray hair, hanging eyes, wearing an apron from Echikoya, and several fish-cutting knives are buckled in the knife pocket at his waist.

Life seemed to overwhelm him, so he looked a little hunched over, but Ling Guoer still put his hand on the pistol until Captain Tang came from the other side: "Boy from the Echigo room, what are you doing in your black market?" There will be Yanagyu Nanami and Kane reporters, and they are all dead now, and I need an explanation."

The girl thought about it for a while, and chose to stay away from Ron. At the same time, she walked around to the right rear of the cat man's side. After looking at Ron, she pressed her hand to the holster.

Ron threw the half-bitten fruit on the floor, and it rolled over to the bear man—if the bear man was a lunatic, he should have done it, and Ron would have shot without hesitation— — A dead opponent is better than a dead teammate.

Captain Tang's teammates stood on Captain Tang's right side.

In the end, the bear man untied the knife bag on his waist, and he threw it aside: "I know Mr. Kane, he is my good friend, and when I was a gangster in the Dead Eye group, I met Yagyu Seven see, the laws of southern Thailand, the bounty leader who is not murder or treason, and you should know that I am not short of money."

"I know that. Most of you poor people from the three eastern states know Mr. Kane. I just want to know why Yagyu Nanami is here." Captain Tang's expression brightened.

"Mr. Kane said he was going to meet a very important informant today. I don't know who he is, but out of trust in Mr. Kane, I lent him my office, that is, I don't know Who does he want to see." At this point, the gray-haired bear man walked to the easel beside him, he took down the painting, opened a safe, and pulled out a safe data hard drive from the mechanism inside.

"This is my smart AI assistant, what should he have photographed or seen."

"Zong Yilang, put it here and use the projector to play it." Captain Tang simply stepped aside so that the bear named Zong Yilang could put the box in his hand on the table.

"Let me help." Ron put the gun in his hand on the table behind him, walked over and put the box and projector together with the cat man.

At the same time, it was also confirmed that the factory of this data box was Xin'anzhou Data Factory. This is a top-notch data factory, most suitable for small venues that require security forces.

It seems that Mr. Xiongren named Soichiro also knows the goods.

Soon, a conversation about Kane and Yagyu Nanami appeared in the eyes of everyone present. Kane, as a reporter, interviewed Yagyu Nanami, focusing on one of his invasions—that was an invasion Regarding the operation of the large-scale military enterprise database on the peninsula, Yagyu Nanami said that the four islands are now in turmoil, and at least [-]% of the weapons come from that enterprise. He not only presented evidence, but also said that if the people in southern Thailand are willing to intervene and investigate the behavior of arms smuggling, he will You can even testify in court as a tainted witness.

"I knew that the four-island guy and the peninsula guy really couldn't pee in the same pot." Ling Guoer noticed Ron walking over, and the girl snorted.

"I know the guys from the Four Islands, and where are the guys from the Peninsula." To be honest, Ron really lacks understanding of the grievances and hatreds among the various ethnic groups in the East.

"The northern peninsula, like the four islands, are all foreigners who fled to southern Thailand during the Great Destruction. Now that the Great Destruction has passed, they said they wanted to clean up the old mountains and rivers, and dragged their families away from Southern Thailand. It was nothing at first. After all, it is their homeland, but the people from the peninsula and the people from the four islands do not deal with each other, and now there is a shadow of the other party intervening in the dilapidated affairs of the two families." Speaking of this, Ling Guoer looked at Ron: "If you Some people can't understand, you can look at the history of the division of the eastern kingdom, it's almost like that, it belongs to the old rotten millet that existed before the great destruction."

"I understand when you say that." Ron shook his head.

It's better not to know too much about this kind of nonsense that is constantly being edited and messed up. Knowing too much is useless, and it is especially traumatic to the brain cells.

At this time, the projector flashed suddenly, the picture disappeared, and then the picture appeared again after a while, but this time, the angle of view changed from the angle of the camera at the top of the corner to the angle of view of Nanami Yagyu.

Yagyu Nanami should be dead at this time, and the intelligent AI should have been connected to his artificial eyeballs to see everything that happened later.

In the living room, Kane had already fallen to the ground, and a cube-shaped thing was kneeling in front of him. He touched what seemed to be an arm to Kane's forehead.

"It's interesting. This intelligent AI is quite advanced. After the video is disturbed, it can restart and connect to the out-of-control visual system after Yagyu Nanami's death. But our Mr. Murderer is also an expert. He blocked and cut in The wireless transmission line of the intelligent AI and vision system directly modifies the video signal, so his appearance in the video is completely modified, which cannot be repaired at all, and there is no way to confirm his identity..." The house elf walking from the corridor raised her eyebrows at this point: "Captain Tang, good morning, as the only person who knows me at the scene, I trouble you to give me an introduction."

"Hello, Mr. Meng Xiao, I didn't expect to alarm you." Captain Tang took off his helmet and saluted the little gentleman.

Mr. Meng Xiao?

If Your Excellency is the title of Legend, what is Little Mister?

Ron felt like an illiterate, but considering that this was his own person, Ron felt that he still had enough time to understand all this slowly.

So, Ron, who took another fruit, couldn't help but look at the little thing in front of him again.

Speaking of the Meng family in New Hangzhou... The Meng family, this is a truly famous family. From the time of the last great destruction, the Meng family has been rich in psykers. Until now, the Meng family has three branches, namely The main family in the north has a branch in the south, and in New Hangzhou, a branch of the Meng family with the blood of the domestic elf guards the ancestral house of the Meng family.

Unlike the usual southern Thai people, the Meng family is the youngest son guarding the ancestral house, which is a very interesting family motto.

"Well, it's nothing. Anyway, everyone in the family has gone out to play. It's no fun for me to guard the old house by myself. This time, you Mr. Director said that they are too busy, so let me come and help." , this little guy watched the two guys who opened the door in the projection being shot, and then looked at everyone present: "Very accurate shooting, I have never seen such a shooter, this time I came in a hurry, something I didn’t bring it, but it’s okay, I have already informed my housekeeper to let him bring my psychic props, hoping that my deep dive can find the murderer.”

"Thank you very much, Mr. Xiao." After Captain Tang finished speaking, he took out a cigarette and gave it to Soichiro: "It seems to be all right, the video conversation is still there, sit down and have a rest, Soichiro."

"Thank you." The bear man took the cigarette, he took out the lighter from his pocket, and lit the cigarette for himself while trembling.

Ron noticed that Soichiro's hands were shaking.

But he didn't ask, after all, everyone has his unique little secret.

Look at this bear man... maybe he has Parkinson's disease.
