from night city

"Then what do you want?"

"One million, and it's all in cash. I don't accept transfers."

"One million? Or cash? Do you know what 100 million in cash is?"

Joanne almost didn't mention it in one breath.

100?

The total deposit in her account is just over 30!

Her monthly salary is quite a lot.

But her expenses are also high.

Her villa in North Oaks, premiums on the Trauma Group Platinum membership package, Excelsior packages on Delamaine taxis.

As well as hundreds of sets of brand-name clothing, shoes, hats, bags, and various types of luxury jewelry.

There are also private customized services at various beauty shops and health centers.

After spending such a large sum of money, she didn't have much savings.

What's more, if you only make money but don't spend money, doesn't that make you a miser?

Su Xiaoxin said nonsense.

I just don't expect you to be able to get so much cash at once.

Otherwise, if you really pay, it will be difficult for me.

"Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, I will wait for you in the Stoneridge Mountain town outside Night City. If you don't come, or you are even one minute late, your dirty information will be published on WNS news."

"I know you pushed Diana Cuno out as a scapegoat, but think about it, when your scandal appears on WNS News, do you think Biotech will abandon you to save the handsome guy? Pushed out as a scapegoat?"

Lidya Su didn’t wait for Joanne to say anything else.

He hung up the phone.

Then when he and Qi Wei went out, he threw the phone into a bucket.

Just in case biotechnology people can follow the location of their mobile phones and find this place.

……

night.

Stars are scattered all over the place, and the night breeze is gentle.

Su Xiao rode a "Fenrir" motorcycle and left the City of Night.

Arriving in the bad land to the east, in a wilderness far away from the road.

He observed it and thought this place was good, so he decided to go here.

Then, he began to unload a box from "Fenrir".

Open the box.

Inside are several disc-shaped electromagnetic pulse mines.

Su Xiao dug several pits, buried them in the pits, and then filled them with soil to make sure that there were no traces of disturbed soil.

He wasn't worried if someone stumbled into this minefield.

Because the place where he buried the mine was some distance from the road.

In the Badlands, if nothing happens, no one will leave the road and go deep into the Badlands.

Because if you do this, you will easily lose your way and may encounter danger.

Secondly, it doesn’t matter if someone does break in by mistake.

Landmines in 2077 all have anti-accidental triggering devices.

Just turn it off and it won't explode.

Even if a person walks up to it or drives over it, it will not explode. (Monthly fee group 694936135)

Of course with a grenade

Detonating it, or shooting it, is another matter.

He set all these electromagnetic pulse mines to be off. As long as others didn't dig them out and throw the grenades into the pit to detonate them, they would be fine.

But then again, if there really is such a person, then Lidya Su has nothing to say.

As the saying goes, "You can live if you do evil by God, but you can't live if you do evil on your own."

After arranging everything, Su Xiao mounted "Fenrir" again and disappeared into the vast night.

……

The next day.

The sun shines fiercely on the wilderness.

Even the air becomes distorted due to the high temperature.

The ground was as hot as the bottom of a heated pot.

At this time, on the road outside the city, a neat motorcade drove towards the small town of Stone Ridge Mountain.

Stoneridge Mountain Town was part of the former Night City investment and development plan.

The real estate company of Night City once planned to build several satellite cities around Night City to harvest the wallets of poor people who cannot afford houses in Night City.

But later, this investment and development plan failed.

Just like many construction plans in Santo Domingo and Taipingzhou.

As for those who have already paid, they can only consider themselves unlucky.

The current Shijishan town has long since become a ghost town.

Joanne sat in the armored SUV in the center.

In the end she decided to keep the appointment.

After all, since the other party knows the existence of his dirty information, he must not be able to keep the other party alive.

Otherwise, all the previous efforts you have made will be in vain.

She couldn't get the 100 million in cash the other party wanted.

But she had no intention of taking it.

Because Joanne was not prepared to give in at all.

——From the fact that the other party only needs cash, you can tell that the other party is a veteran.

Because electronic accounts are at risk of being frozen and tracked.

Cash doesn't have this problem.

Joanne didn't dare to bet that after the other party got the money, he would honestly hand over all the documents with both hands.

At least if Joanne were in the other party's position, she would not easily let go of this long-term meal ticket opportunity. Instead, she would first take out some of the less important documents and keep the important documents in her possession. in hands.

Then slowly slaughter it.

Thin water flows.

If Joanne were the other party, she would choose this plan that maximizes benefits.

So Joanne thought about it all night yesterday.

Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

In the end, she still felt that the only solution was to solve the problem for her once and for all.

Originally, she could have let the soldiers she could command pass.

Just sit quietly in the biotechnology company hotel and wait for news.

But she decided to take matters into her own hands.

At first she was worried that if she didn't come forward, what if the other party hiding in the dark didn't show up either? (The other party may be an old bird. How can he stand carelessly in the most conspicuous and open place? He will definitely hide first and observe whether he is in place before showing up.)

Secondly, Joanne was not so relieved to let others go.

Because the major's people had lost Emilia and disappointed her once.

If he hadn't been lost, so many things wouldn't have happened.

Therefore, in order to avoid another accident, Joanne had to go there in person.

to make sure nothing goes wrong.

Just as Joanne was looking out the car window at the cookie-cutter wilderness scenery, a "Brennan Apollo" motorcycle coming up from behind entered her field of vision.

Stay parallel to the convoy.

"Brennan Apollo", the design of this motorcycle is not known for its elegance.

There is neither the most fashionable metal finish nor the most high-end central control.

But the car itself isn't for company dogs and socialites who like elegance, either.

Its target users are actually wanderers who live with wilderness, windy sand and sultry air.

Made for the desert.

The extra-large fuel tank allows it to travel long distances without refueling;

The solid body structure and suspension system can easily adapt to rocky and bumpy terrain;

Not to mention, the powerful engine is enough to leave any chaotic team behind.

Therefore, "Brennan Apollo" is almost the standard equipment for people who make a living in the wilderness.

And the rider riding on that motorcycle was indeed dressed in a typical vagabond style.

"Wanderer?"

An expression of disgust immediately appeared on Joanne's face.

She detests the way some people glorify these "highway bandits."
