Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Chapter 328 Chapter 325 Target Director

The weather in Peicheng is not very good recently, it has been gloomy.Dark, heavy clouds are always hovering in the sky, but it just doesn't rain.No matter day or night, the lights are always on. Those lights dye the clouds into colorful colors, but they don't look beautiful because of it, but have a feeling of stirring the river polluted by chemicals.

Contrary to the gloomy climate, the streets of the city are all decorated with lights and festoons, and everyone is welcoming the opening of the Great Exposition with a warm atmosphere.It is said that if all the fairs go well this time, it will at least bring hundreds of millions of income to Peicheng.The rumored things have always been "reliable", and don't forget that they are also "said" that Director Pace will carry out the anti-drug work to the end!
Gloomy weather, gloomy mood, even Lucy was gloomy.She wears a mask all day, so you can't see her face, but as long as you get to know her well, you can judge her mood from the speed of her speech, the choice of words and sentences, and body movements.As soon as Zhuang Xuteng entered the office, he saw her bow her head in silence, pressing her hands hard on a stack of intelligence files.The coffee on her table had been cold for a long time, and stratification and precipitation had reappeared, and it was very likely that it had been left for more than one night.Zhuang Xuteng stepped forward to pour out the coffee, brushed the cup and replaced it with a new one for her, only then did she raise her head as if waking up from a dream.

"It's all messed up, including this one." Lucy first said to Nightingale and Chaffinch: "This is a commissioned task brought by Palovich, you know who he is. Naike and Brother Dao owe Palo You two don't have Vicki's favor, so you two don't have to accept this commission."

"As long as Naike and Brother Dao pick it up, we will pick it up." Nightingale spoke on behalf of the two of them and said, "Thank you for your concern. We acted together with two famous mercenaries and earned an extra share from their reputation." If they don’t have the money, they have to bear the favor they owe for establishing their name.”

"If you insist on doing this, then I won't persuade you. This entrusted task is very difficult to do, and you may have to fight against the PCPD." Lucy threw the file bag containing the information to the four of them and said, "There is no choice. This is the task of repaying favors.”

The four major gangs in Peicheng took the lead, followed by other medium-sized gangs, and handed over a large number of blue crystals to PCPD. Now how to deal with these things has become a hot potato.According to the so-called "market" price, these blue crystal products cost more than one billion yuan.If the price increase caused by the shortage of goods is included, there is no problem in saying that they are worth several billion.

"Currently, the plan given by Director Pace is to use chemical methods to safely destroy, and must avoid harming the environment of Peicheng and people's health. Not many people believe his words, and everyone is staring at these things. At present The defense level of the warehouse is comparable to protecting the heads of the four major groups, and it can be said that not even a fly can fly in."

"If this batch of goods is shipped to other cities for sale as before, then PCPD's reputation will be completely stink." Lucy said: "What Palovich wants you to do is to keep an eye on this batch of goods. If they are really If it is resold, you will get absolutely tangible evidence to pull Pace from his current position."

Upon hearing this kind of task request, beads of sweat immediately appeared on Zhuang Xuteng's forehead. "Does Palovich have a personal feud with Pace? This action seems to be aimed at Director Pace personally. He belongs to the riot suppression unit. Why is he dealing with PCPD like this?"

Lucy waved her hand and said, "I'm not a psychiatrist, and I don't know Palovich's mental state. I can only proceed from the known information. At present, how the constitutional government allocates funds for security management is the responsibility of the riot squad and The main point of disagreement of the PCPD was that the anti-riot squad had the upper hand some time ago. However, with the high exposure rate brought about by the anti-drug work, the PCPD gradually regained the initiative. If the PCPD can make a fortune from these blue crystals, They have enough funds to upgrade their equipment to catch up with the riot squad."

Ge Gongdao snorted, and said: "It seems to be a problem of money, but it can't be all about money. I've seen a lot in this industry. If you want to mess with Pace, it's better to kill him directly. Why bother to find these evidences?" ?”

Lucy pointed at Ge Gongdao, nodded vigorously, and said: "I also think this matter is very abnormal, but this is Palovich's request. The task of the four of you is to stare at the PCPD's evidence warehouse, don't Killed by PCPD guards. Keep an eye on where those things go, take pictures of evidence they were resold."

"If they don't sell, shall we wait forever?" Ge Gongdao asked with a sigh.

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said: "No, PCPD will definitely deal with those blue crystals as soon as possible, so that they won't keep taking up resources. Sister Lucy, can this be done in reverse? Get someone to buy some blue crystals and make evidence Can't you?"

"Middlemen don't touch the business of blue crystals." Lucy said, tapping the table with her knuckles.

"I know you don't do it, and I know that the middlemen in Peicheng don't do it either, but what about outside Peicheng?" Zhuang Xuteng said: "If someone tells Pace that they can process some blue crystals and give them a good price, what do you think? Will Pace take the bait?"

"I've thought about this plan too, but the problem with it is that it's too risky." Lucy shook her head and said, "I don't have ready-made resources to do this, and I can't find a credible partner. I'm in Peicheng It's just a small role, and the influence is not enough, let alone outside of Peicheng."

Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head, and he had another idea in his mind, and said, "There are many people watching the evidence warehouse now, and our family is not missing... Sister Lucy, if there is a family of people watching this, ask about it whenever they have a chance, and put The news that the PCPD possesses billions of blue crystals but does not deal with it is spreading all over the sky, will it in turn force Director Pace to deal with it more urgently?"

"Using media public opinion is a good idea, but under normal circumstances, you need to catch Pace's interests or weaknesses in order to persecute him. If he is not in a hurry, it is useless for you to urge him."

Zhuang Xuteng hummed and said, "If you feel that everything is under control, Pace will certainly not be anxious, but we can create a sense of anxiety: for example, there are groups outside who are eyeing these things."

Lucy froze for a moment, then leaned forward, obviously interested: "Tell me, how do you do it?"

"Everyone acts based on intelligence, Pace, PCPD, and the anti-riot strike team are all the same." Zhuang Xuteng said: "If there are rumors on the road, someone is interested in the blue crystals stored in the warehouse, and this person is indeed enough Great, can Pace still be calm and steady?"

"Who is this powerful enough person?" Lucy asked.

"It can't be us, mercenaries can't scare him; it can't be gangs, no matter local or foreign, there is no reason to act; let alone the company, the company and Pace are in the same group in this matter." Zhuang Xuteng said: " But there is one guy who is very suitable to take the blame: the gardeners organization."

Uh... The gardener's organization is indeed suitable to take the blame, but according to Naike's own analysis, Palovich is the gardener's organization...Ge Gongdao and Lucy looked at Zhuang Xuteng, and their minds didn't go around for a while.But after a while, when they came around this bend, they couldn't help saying hello at the same time!

"According to Palovich's attitude, the gardeners organization is the least likely to be in cahoots with Director Pace, and judging from their actions of blowing up the TV station building, they don't mind destroying it." Lucy snapped her fingers and said: " Pace got these blue crystals from the gang in Peicheng, and the only thing he can't accept is destroying them."

Ge Gongdao nodded, and said: "The gang can't give up the benefits in vain. Even if the Sanliu charity consortium promotes the security blue project as the driving force, it is impossible to pay for the billions of blue crystals. Pace must be careful. When dealing with blue crystals, the premise of everything is that the blue crystals must be intact."

"Yes, I just thought of this, and I think the gardener's organization is the most suitable for use." Zhuang Xuteng said to Lucy: "The key now is whether the gardener's organization can be disguised. This is not easy, especially if the PCPD can't let it go If we find us with clues, then we will be blamed for the gardener organization!"

"I understand where the key is. The first thing is to avoid such dangerous situations. Well... it's fine if there are rumors in the information network, and you don't need to ask the gardener organization to come forward directly. Well... the more specious, the more real it seems." Lucy Stretching out his hand, wanting to send back the mission information, he said: "The action plan has changed, and those things need to be changed. I will notify you again..."

Zhuang Xuteng returned the folder, but he did not agree to suspend the mission. "We still act according to the plan you gave just now, so that it will be more obvious that the rumors of the gardener organization in the information network have nothing to do with us. Besides, your plan is also very good. We can indeed pretend to be media reporters and take pictures of the evidence warehouse every day. "

Nightingale and Lucy also agreed: "That's right! You've already prepared the fake identity documents, there's no need to waste them. We are reporters and assistants, Naike photographer, Daoge driver, it seems very reasonable. "

"That's right, your actions will always have positive effects, and it is true that someone must be watching on the spot." Lucy made a short pause, as if sorting out her emotions, and then said: "The difficulty of obtaining information from the information network is now As it gets higher and higher, the meaning of using real people to follow the scene increases accordingly, and I finally understand what the ceiling of the middleman means. I used to think that by recruiting more talents and increasing investment in intelligence networks, I could continue to become stronger, but it became more and more powerless When there are more people and the difficulty of tasks increases, the original way of collecting intelligence and planning through the network may not be effective.”

"Sister Lucy, don't be discouraged." Zhuang Xuteng said with a playful smile: "After all, you only earn half of the money, and you can't worry about everything!"

"Stinky boy! Hurry up and do your half of the work!" Lucy waved her hands vigorously to drive away the four guys, but after such a fuss, her mood improved a lot.

Leaving Lucy's office, the four-person team began to prepare for action.They need to book a room close to the target, investigate the surrounding situation, and obtain various materials for disguising their identities... There are still many things that need everyone to act separately.But Zhuang Xuteng is thinking about another thing now: he feels that Lucy seems to have plans to retire.

"She may feel tired..." Zhuang Xuteng asked Ge Gong privately: "If the middleman quits, what will happen to the mercenaries?"

"Wait for someone to take over, find a new middleman by yourself or quit this industry." Ge Gongdao patted Zhuang Xuteng on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I don't think Lucy means that. She may feel that she is too busy and needs to Transfer some of the mercenary business."

"Shouldn't the few of us be included?"

"Of course not." Ge Gongdao said, "I can understand her meaning: if some mercenaries go to other middlemen, she hopes that the two of us will not be shocked by it, let alone feel that she has lost the ability to work. Naike, it is impossible for Lucy to show her preference and reliance on someone on the bright side, but she does have a difference between closeness and closeness, we just need to know it in our hearts."

What Brother Dao said made sense, but Zhuang Xuteng couldn't help thinking about the future.Although she is always called Sister Lucy, but according to the number of years she has been in the middleman industry, this "sister" is not young anymore, and there will always be a day when she can no longer work.Zhuang Xuteng didn't think that he would be eliminated by the mercenary industry earlier, he still thought that he could have a golden basin to wash his hands like his master.If Lucy quit before then, he wouldn't necessarily think about continuing with other middlemen.

In the past, he thought that everything would remain the same, as long as he worked hard, he would continue to improve step by step.Now it seems that there are too many things that may cause changes, and there is a ceiling above his head that prevents him from continuing to improve.

The same is true for the work of mercenaries. Once companies and top gangs are involved, this job becomes difficult to do.Whether it is a middleman or a mercenary, they can only use their brains and exert all their strengths to create a little room for movement, which is too difficult.Zhuang Xuteng doesn't dislike challenges, but just doesn't like this state where the pay is not proportional to the income.

Especially for activities that need to be carried out secretly, the feeling of restraint is more obvious. PCPD has set up a net in the evidence storage center, and the dense monitoring and measures make people unable to dare to approach.Observing through the Eye of Shadow, Zhuang Xuteng could at least see the guards on the inner three floors and the outer three floors, and there must be more where he couldn't see.He also tried to sneak from the sewer, but was also stopped, not to mention the ground and air.

This is obviously a technical ceiling.Zhuang Xuteng is already a guy with pretty good equipment (implants) in the mercenary industry, and he has nothing to do with the current defensive measures.Fortunately, he still has some weird means that allow him to retreat safely from the sewer sneak.When they pretended to be reporters and took pictures, they saw more than one situation where people trying to infiltrate were discovered and eliminated by the PCPD, and at least [-]% of them should be mercenaries.
