from night city

Then he returned to the priest.

A few minutes later, the priest's men arrived.

They are anxious

He hurriedly picked up the dying priest and took him straight to the private hospital.

……

Trauma Team Hospital.

A pure white corridor, the walls are pure white, the floor is clean enough to reflect human figures, and even the fluorescent lamps on the ceiling glow with a faint white light.

On both sides of the corridor, there are single wards with bathrooms and entertainment rooms. The smart glass is usually closed, but can be opened after obtaining permission to observe the patient's condition.

Su Xiao and a doctor in a white coat were standing in front of a single ward, looking through the smart glass into the ward inside.

On a clean big bed, Evelin was undergoing various examinations.

Su Xiao looked at the doctor next to her: "How is she doing?"

Without blinking an eye, the doctor has gained hundreds of thousands of major customers. The doctor's attitude is very good.

"Her condition is very bad, but fortunately it has stabilized now, but it may take some time until she is fully conscious."

"Doctor, I have something to ask her. How long do you think it will take for her to wake up?"

The doctor looked inside and sighed.

"I can't guarantee this. Like I just said, she is just stable now, but the trauma she suffered before was too serious after all, not to mention that she also had a behavioral chip implanted."

"Did you know about the behavioral chip? This is a magical technology, a great invention that will turn you into a completely different person, so realistic that it can win you an Oscar."

"But experts who sell behavioral chips will not tell you that this kind of thing has extremely strong side effects. For example, it can turn a rookie who has just passed the novice training into a battlefield that is full of corpses and seas of blood. Veterans who walked up and down.”

"In the end, he became a cyberpsychopath who could not distinguish between friend and foe. This is why the company still uses Mewtwo and virtual reality to train soldiers instead of using behavioral chips to mass-produce veterans."

Lidya Su was a little surprised by the doctor's honesty.

He originally thought that the doctor would cover it up a little bit.

As if seeing Lidya Su's doubts, the doctor smiled and explained.

"The behavioral chip was not invented by our trauma team. There is nothing we can't say. We didn't get any benefits anyway."

Although they are all companies.

But the relationship between companies is not monolithic, but competition and hostility.

If one company is unlucky, other companies don't mind adding insult to injury.

These are all things that are welcome to hear and see.

Lidya Su suddenly said as if she thought of something.

"Is she dreaming?"

"What do you mean?" The doctor asked in confusion, but then he probably felt that such a rhetorical question was a bit impolite, so before Su Xiao could ask again, he answered Su Xiao's question just now, "Do it, it's just Some fitful dreams.”

"Can you use equipment to capture her dreams? Of course, I mean using equipment to record them without damaging her body, mind, and brain."

"Of course. Our trauma team's private hospital is one of the top three hospitals in Night City. This little thing doesn't matter."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

At this time, the holographic phone suddenly rang.

"I'll take a call."

"Of course, as you please."

The doctor voluntarily walked away.

"Su? Is it Su?!"

On the holographic phone, a picture of a black man popped up, his face full of anxiety.

"Marcus, you look very ugly. What happened?"

"Something happened! Something serious happened! The priest was seriously injured! He is lying in the hospital now!"

Lidya Su only felt as if she had been hit hard on the chest.

He was shocked.

The priest was attacked? !

Still lying in the hospital? !

how come……

Middlemen in Night City sometimes encounter assassinations.

Most assassination commissions are issued by other jealous middlemen, companies, or members of rival gangs.

However, the success rate is generally very low.

Because middlemen usually only stay in their own strongholds.

It's difficult to conquer a small fortress without starting a gang war.

Even if the middleman has to go out for something...

The roads in this city are crisscrossed.

How does the assassin know which way the target will take?So as to ambush and carry out a sneak attack in advance?

unless……

There is a traitor among the priest's men.

"What happened? How did the priest get seriously injured? What did he plan to do before?"

Marcus said with an ugly face.

"Today the priest plans to go to the Wild Wolf Bar. The driver Carlo has asked for leave, so I will drive for the priest. When we drove to an intersection, the bastards from the Sixth Street Gang ambush him there in advance."

"They first used a truck to force us into a flower shop, and then a killer disguised as a clerk shot the priest in the heart."

When Lidya Su heard this, he felt that the person who asked for leave was very suspicious.

"That driver Carlo, he has a problem. Have you found him?"

"The priest said the same thing before he was shot.

, but when we found a few brothers and rushed to the apartment where Carlo lived, we found that the boy had died in his bathroom, and his blood had been drained almost completely. "

Lidya Su's face suddenly changed

There are three possibilities:

One is that Carlo rebelled, but committed suicide out of guilt and fear;

Second, Carlo did not rebel, but the Sixth Street Gang found him, and after prying out the priest's itinerary and time from his mouth, he was killed by the Sixth Street Gang;

Third, it doesn't matter whether Carlo is a traitor or not. What matters is that there is a traitor under the priest.

And this traitor has a higher status than Carlo.

It was he who revealed the information to the Sixth Street Gang and silenced Carlo.

Give others the illusion that it was Carlo who leaked the secret.

"How's the situation over there now?"

"It's very bad. We started fighting with Clementi and several brothers died."

Clementi is one of the three branches of the Six Street Gang.

The Sixth Street Gang is divided into three branches - Clementi, Falcone, and Frankie.

By the way, Marmel, who wanted to coerce Su Xiao to join the Sixth Street Gang six months ago, was a cadre of Clementi.

"What did you do?" Su Xiao's tone was half annoyed, half full of hatred, "Isn't the most important thing for you now, not to protect the priest and find the traitor in the organization? What are you doing with Clementi? battle?"

"It was Nicola who took us to settle the score with Clementi."

Nicola is the priest's deputy.

When the priest is absent, he is generally responsible for handling affairs.

The smart weapons that the priest obtained from Su Xiao were also negotiated by him and the black market merchants.

This Nicola.

If it's not a traitor.

Just a complete idiot.

But considering that he could be the priest's deputy and the priest asked him to be responsible for so many things, he couldn't be stupid.

It could only be a traitor.

At least for now, he is the biggest suspect.

"Marcus, please listen to me now. Find a group of direct descendants of the priests. Don't let other brothers find out. Control Nikola privately and don't give him any chance to defend himself."

"If my guess is right, he is probably the one who leaked the priest's whereabouts. If my guess is wrong... don't think about it now. In short, you can control the person first."

Chapter 181 Noisy, Classy, ​​Exposed at Night and Death (3K)

Su Xiao felt that there was a 90.00% chance that she would not guess wrong.

Of course, if the remaining ten percent really happened... Nickla is a fool who loses control at critical moments and is dominated by emotions...

Then it is true that he caused casualties among the priest's men, so it would be right to arrest him, right?

"Nicholas, he is not in the stronghold now, he is missing."

Lidya Su felt her blood pressure rising.

"WTF??? What did you say?!"

"Nicola took us to fight the Clementi family once. After the defeat, he wanted to continue the attack, but others expressed doubts. Seeing that he could not convince others, Nicola locked himself in a room and waited for us to go When I called him, I realized he was missing.”

Ok.

Then this Nikola is 100% a traitor.
