Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Chapter 473 Chapter 470 First come, first served

"Nightingale, Brother Dao, how about some snacks?" Zhuang Xuteng took out biscuits and preserved meat for the two of them to choose from.

"I still want to fly a helicopter! Flying at low altitude without guidance at night is a technical job, and I don't dare to be distracted." Ge Gongdao kept staring at the front of the helicopter. His eyes reflected a faint green light, like the eyes of a wolf, but this It's not the awakening of the werewolf bloodline, just implanted eyes that can see at night.While driving, he took a moment to look back and said in surprise: "You actually have something to eat? How unexpected!"

Nightingale, who was sitting in the back row of the cabin, poked her head around, saw the small bag of snacks in Zhuang Xuteng's hand, and shook her head: "We were worried that you would be hungry all the time, so we prepared a surprise under your seat: a bowl of fragrant noodles."

"Tell me earlier!" Zhuang Xuteng threw the snacks to Nightingale, then bent down to pull out the incubator under the seat and took out the noodles.They chose mixed noodles because they could eat them hot or cold.Of course, it is best to add a little hot water, scald the noodles slightly, and then mix them, so that the taste will be better.

The hot water bottle is in the incubator, which shows that Zhuang Xuteng has received good care from his friends.He didn't show any pretense. He poured some hot water from the thermos bottle onto the sticky dough, and then used chopsticks to stir it up.Next, the sound of slurping noodles could be heard in the cabin.

"It's delicious!" Zhuang Xuteng exclaimed: "This is called real food, it can be called a meal!"

"Haha, it's good if you can eat enough." Nightingale picked up the dried meat snacks, looked at them, and asked, "Did you steal this from Otto Company?"

"No, they invited me to eat." Zhuang Xuteng was in a good mood after finally leaving the lonely computer room, so he made a joke.However, out of the mercenary's sense of responsibility and not wanting his teammates to misunderstand, he would explain clearly: "Actually, I stole it from their conference room, and they didn't notice it. The quality of these snacks is good, and they taste good. I will also I’ll prepare some.”

"Lucy asked me to give you a message: the task has been overloaded and delayed for so long. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and said: "Anyway, I persisted, as long as there are good results. By the way, are the results good?"

"The concussive echo is successful, and the inserted needle can start working." Nightingale tore open the package of the biscuit, took a piece and held it in her hand, waiting to answer Zhuang Xuteng's question before eating. "According to the plan, Lucy should have started to modify the identity information of the mercenaries by this time. At least we can definitely hide it again without being affected by the list in Colonel Taft's hand."

"Great!" Zhuang Xuteng clenched his fist and waved it in the air, saying: "Finally, we don't have to be threatened by that bastard Tafu! After our identities are established, can we find someone to charge for it? Sister Lucy is ready How do you make money back?”

"I don't know yet, Lucy didn't say it, but I'm sure it won't be revealed publicly." Nightingale swallowed the cookie and replied.

"Yes, it must not be made public, otherwise it will be like slapping Tafu in the face." Zhuang Xuteng knocked on the communication microphone in the cabin and said to Brother Dao: "Brother Dao, why don't you speak? Just because your identity has always been public Don’t you care about this anymore?”

"What's there to say? There are only two ways to handle this matter." Brother Dao shrugged lightly and said: "One is to notify a small area of ​​​​targets and only protect those with good relationships and strict mouths. In this way, Lucy can In fact, by controlling the mercenary and middleman industry and becoming the strongest one in Peicheng - at least until other middlemen can re-train new people who are strong enough, Lucy can establish an absolute advantage. However, in doing so, everyone will eventually discover that Lucy is There are problems on the side, so I’m not sure what to say in the end..."

"Another way is to find a partner who is not afraid of losing his head, push him to the front, and openly sell the service of modifying identity information. You can definitely make more money in this way, but you have to find a way out for that partner, or reach a certain level. Kill him when the time comes, but before Colonel Taft avenges his face. This person, it is best to have the idea of ​​​​death and be determined to use his own life in exchange for enough benefits. At the same time, Lucy must Clean up the relationship and don’t be implicated.”

Ge Gongdao slightly raised the height of the helicopter to avoid obstacles on the ground, and then said: "Both methods have their own pros and cons, it depends on Lucy's choice. She has more comprehensive information and is more qualified to make a choice than us. "

"I personally think the second option is better." Zhuang Xuteng said: "It can make more money, and it also has a good exit mechanism."

"But the second approach is more likely to attract Taff."

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said: "I feel that Tafu has no shame at all. He obeys the company's orders and pursues his own interests. He can steal the identity list of mercenaries and sell it. Face is a thing that no longer exists. When he thinks it is advantageous, When there is money to be made, or when he feels that he is short of money, he will come with a reason. If there is no reason to create a reason or no reason at all, he will still come to trouble us. As long as there is still money to be made for the middlemen and mercenaries in Peicheng , he might turn back."

"You're right..." Brother Dao nodded and said, "I hope that guy leaves quickly! If he doesn't leave, the Moat Company will be in a state of trembling and it will be difficult to carry out various tasks. Hey, look, there's Peicheng in front of us. light!"

On the horizon, Peicheng gradually enlarged from a blurry point of light into a monster emitting various lights in the night sky.The monster is fighting against the falling snow, and those pillars of light possess the qualities of futility and perseverance at the same time.In the past, Zhuang Xuteng always felt that this city was cold and ruthless, but after leaving for a while and being alone in the computer room, he suddenly fell in love with this city again.

"Lucy said that she should go home and rest first. There is nothing urgent at the moment, so we will meet again tomorrow afternoon. If you two have no objections, I will fly home directly? There is a helipad on the roof of the building, which can be used to put you down together. Then I’ll deal with the helicopter.”

"Okay, I'll go home." "I'll go home too." Zhuang Xuteng and Nightingale agreed.

About an hour later, Zhuang Xuteng was snoring comfortably, with a fluffy pillow called a meat bun pressed under his arms and thighs.His breathing was slow and steady, and so was the meat bun.A man and a snow leopard were leaning against the heater, recovering their tense nerves and enjoying the hard-won tranquility.

Zhuang Xuteng just needed to relax and was not particularly tired.He did not do any heavy work within Ultra Company, nor did he fight. One of the biggest mental pressures came from loneliness, and the other came from the need to be vigilant at all times.Go home, relax, and get a good night's sleep to get him back into shape in no time.

"My body is a little rusty, so I need to work harder to prevent my martial arts from deteriorating." While exercising, Zhuang Xuteng browsed the messages accumulated on his phone in the past few days and replied to important people.Morgana came to him and asked if he had returned from completing his mission.Zhuang Xuteng originally told her that it would only take a week, and she felt that she had left a surplus, but she didn't expect that she would spend a few days exceeding the limit.Fortunately, Morgana knew Lucy's phone number. Although she couldn't ask about the specifics of the mission, she could at least know that Zhuang Xuteng was okay.She came to Zhuang Xuteng not because she was worried, but because she missed him.The two resumed contact through text messages, and then waited for Morgana to have a convenient time to talk, and quickly talked on the phone.They set the time, place and method of the date, and then deal with the trivial matters in their respective work and lives in anticipation.

The next afternoon, when Zhuang Xuteng came to Lucy's office at the music restaurant as scheduled, his spirit and body were back to their best, and his whole mood was even better.He was the first to arrive, and received a warm hug as soon as he saw Lucy.

"Naike, you did a good job this time! Thanks to you for holding on, the mission was completed." Lucy hugged him for two seconds, patted his back four times, let go and got him a document. "This is your identity, take a look."

Zhuang Xuteng tilted his head, not quite understanding. "Why do you need an identity information? Did the mission fail?"

"Don't get me wrong, of course it was successful, but success can be divided into two aspects." Lucy shook her finger and said, "Don't worry, I will explain it together when everyone is here."

People arrived one after another.In Zhuang Xuteng's group, Ge Gongdao will not come.His identity has long been made public, and the success or failure of this operation has no impact on him at all, so he will not join in the fun to avoid unnecessary complications.In addition, Zhuang Xuteng noticed that one of the four groups did not come, and he was a little curious about what happened.

"They failed to complete the task, so this extra benefit is not for them." Lucy explained to everyone.Her voice was quite calm and contained no emotional characteristics, so it was impossible to judge whether the absentee was good or bad.

The mercenaries were very realistic. Anyway, they were not very familiar with the absent group, let alone had any life-long friendship or life-worthy interest entanglement, so they would not ask more questions.

"Their identities are also hidden. This is what was promised before the mission. Including future profit sharing, I will not default on the debt, and they will also have a share. You can rest assured about this." Lucy said: "Everyone of you Everyone gets a portfolio, and now this is what I’m going to say.”

"The association has registered everyone's identity information, that is, your real name, social identity number, and basic social relationships. This is the information content that Colonel Taft has. The so-called identity leakage is to use this information to find your social relationships. To track and blackmail you."

Lucy said: "After entering the identity system this time, the first thing to do is to hide your identity information, that is, to lead inquiries about your social relationships based on leaked intelligence in the wrong direction. However, the information within the network You can use false information to cover it up, but in reality, traces of your lives still exist."

"If they use your basic relationship to conduct on-the-spot investigations, it is still possible that your social relationship will be exposed. This must be guarded against." Lucy said: "What you have in your hands is a complete set of false identities, giving all your closest relatives Relatives prepared what you might call: a critical protection plan. These new identities are completely defensible and reasonable and legal from any point of view, because they are derived from the government's identity information system."

Not only Zhuang Xuteng, many people whistled, and some applauded to thank Lucy.

"For the sake of safety, I have prepared two plans for each person. You can decide which one to use." Lucy said: "Don't be too happy too early, because using this plan means that your family must Say goodbye to the life you are used to, break away from the current circle, and live a new life.”

"Although the sooner this work is completed, the better, but it will definitely have an impact on your current life. You can use your own discretion!" Lucy said very sincerely: "If the identity list is not eventually leaked, you don't have to bother; But once it is leaked, I am afraid of bad luck, and every step will be slower. I will say this much. The reason is very simple. You can figure it out for yourself. Do you want to do it specifically? Do you need my help? Let’s talk alone, no need to announce it here.”

Having new identity information is indeed a good thing, but using a new identity is equivalent to washing away the old identity.Considering my own situation, my parents have retired, so there is no problem in letting them use new identities. The key difficulty lies with my younger sister.Zhuang Feifei's career is booming. If she changes her identity, she will have to start over, which is very unfair to her.

In the subsequent meeting, Lucy mentioned how to use this system to make money and what the expected profits would be, which greatly boosted everyone's morale.At the same time, she reiterated the importance of confidentiality. The content of this operation must never be mentioned again, and it is best to treat it as if it never happened at all.She highlighted the threat of "Colonel Taft" in order to make everyone fully understand the principle of "don't reveal your wealth."

After the meeting, she left Zhuang Xuteng's team alone and posed a difficult problem to him: "In the power team, the two guys, Sigozan and Taco, are suspected of being passive and colluding with both internal and external parties. I want you to kill them."

The power group is the group that had problems twice before. Originally, the difficulty of their group was moderate. Judging from past performance, the two people should be able to complete the task smoothly.Something went wrong once, then twice, and finally we had to spend a lot of money to call in emergency foreign aid.The emergency foreign aid was completed in one go according to the task steps without any advance training.

This further highlights that the two people on the power team have problems.

"But do they really have a problem?" Zhuang Xuteng said to Lucy: "I don't object to killing missions, but I am not a professional killer, and I can't kill anyone without asking questions. Especially this time, the target is not only my peers, but I am not a professional killer." They are still the same people we just did the mission with. Sister Lucy, please let me ask one more question from the perspective of my own safety and interests: Did they really steal everything?"

"Since you are so frank, I won't hide it from you: there is no conclusive evidence." Lucy said: "At present, I only know that they met with other middlemen after knowing about this mission, and that middleman met with me in the association We don’t want to deal with each other. We don’t have the same ideas, so we can’t say we have any grudges, but if we can see each other suffer, then we will both be happy.”

"This is suspicion." Zhuang Xuteng said.

Lucy nodded and said: "You are right. I also want to find out more before making a decision, but no one is a fool. On the one hand, there are experienced middlemen, and on the other hand, there are middlemen who are always wary of me. Once I start investigating , it is very likely to be discovered, which will immediately cause the situation to slip into the abyss of danger and loss of control. Naike, I also want to know if they have leaked the goals and operational details of the pin insertion mission."

Zhuang Xuteng looked at Nightingale and Yanque, and both women looked troubled.Although this is just a mercenary mission, both of them will think about whether they will face such a day in the future.At the same time, they also need to consider a question: Will proposing this task be a test for Lucy to see if they will do anything for money.
