from night city

"It's ironic. Logically speaking, for a person of color like me, entering the police station is no different than going home. However, although I am Mexican and was born in Haywood, I have basically never entered the police station. Bureau."

"Even though it has been several years, looking back now, I still remember it clearly. There was no one else in the police station at that time, only a couple who were sad and collapsed."

"I asked the police to find out. They were not here to report the crime, but the police station asked them to come and claim the body. Their son had a car accident a few hours ago and was hit and killed on the street."

"But that street belongs to a black community. As we all know, the black community is poor, dirty, messy, and poor. They can't pay much tax, so there are no police officers sent to patrol there, and there are no surveillance cameras on the street."

"By the time the police found the couple's son, the child's body had long since cooled down and the perpetrator was missing. And because there were no surveillance cameras at the place where the incident occurred, the police did not know who did it."

"I first

I immediately realized that they must be the parents of the poor child that Jose killed. Judging from the clothes of the parents, they didn’t look like an ordinary family. I didn’t know how much it would cost to compensate them, but after hesitating, Go towards them. "

"I wanted to confess to them and tell them that I would do everything I could to compensate them, even if I sold my tire company, which was on the rise..."

"But when I walked up to them, I was so frightened that I almost fainted on the spot and couldn't stand still. Because it was only then that I recognized that the couple were indeed not ordinary people. Even a Mexican would be familiar with them. The surname…Salamanca.”

Jack took a breath when he heard this: "Salamanca? Isn't that the one who kidnapped your son?"

He seemed to understand something, with a look of realization on his face: "That's why you...that's why your son...they..."

Dante nodded slowly.

"I originally planned to take my son to surrender, but after seeing the Salamanca couple at the police station, I changed my mind."

"If they find out that it was my son who killed their son, then the Salamanca Group will not let Jose go, nor will they let me go."

"Jack, you are also of Mexican origin. Although you were born in Night City, you also know the bloody and cruel rumors about the Mexican Group, right?"

"They are no different from the gangs in the city. The difference is that the group's strength, influence and other aspects are far superior to the gangs in Night City, so their behavior is more cruel, perverse and violent."

Chapter 229: Going to listen to the scriptures on the 3nd and staying in a hotel at night ([-]K)

Jack also said with a stern face: "The Mexican Group can do business and manage a city well. They are more efficient than the government, but all this has a prerequisite."

"The premise is that you don't offend them. They are a criminal organization after all, not a charity. If you offend them, they will show their brutal side and let those who offend them pay with their blood and brains."

What Dante did was not only an offense, but also caused the group boss's son to be killed.

This is like playing an FPS game, beating someone to death, and then standing up and squatting on their corpse. It would be strange if they don't go crazy.

Moreover, if Jack remembers correctly, Hector, the boss of the Salamanca Group, seems to be the only son.

This son is not only Hector's only son, but also a son of old age.

Although I don’t know why that day, the young master of the Salamanca Group went to a black community with poor security without a bodyguard.

But it is conceivable that once Hector knew that his son was killed by Dante's son, then as Dante thought, both Dante and his son would not have to live anymore.

"I said why...no wonder...it turns out to be like this..."

Tijuana, ruled by the Salamanca Group, is not far from the border, and some middle-class people from Night City also like to travel to Tijuana and travel there.

Even Misty had told Jack that she wanted to travel to Tijuana.

Therefore, Jack also became interested in the Salamanca Group, intentionally or unintentionally learning about the news there.

Salamanca Group has been in decline in recent years.

Hector's wife commits suicide.

The boss of the group, Hector, is also acting more and more crazy.

People within the group gradually began to feel unstable, and some people began to feel dissatisfied with Hector, but they did not dare to raise questions publicly because of Hector's strength.

Before that, Jack had found it strange.

After being the boss for so many years, Hector knew how to manage the group even with his eyes closed. How could it be that he seemed to be a different person, and the more he managed, the worse he got.

It turned out to be the case.

"So at that time, after I recognized the couple, I pretended to be calm and left the police station, got back in the car, and drove back to the apartment as fast as possible."

"I told Jose to forget everything that happened today. The fact that he killed the only son of the Salamanca Group must be rotten in his stomach, otherwise we, father and son, will have to be buried with him."

"Then, I made a call and asked someone I trusted to help clean up my son's car, the one that caused the accident."

"Then, the next day, I took my son with me to a restaurant near New York University for dinner, pretending to be Jose and showing me around their school."

"Every month after that, I would go to a restaurant near their school and deliberately mentioned that my son had taken me to visit the school before."

Jack's mind was filled with questions.

"Why are you doing this?"

Su Xiao said calmly: "On the [-]nd, I will go to listen to the scriptures and stay in a hotel at night. On the [-]rd, I will go to a restaurant and then watch a movie."

Everyone looked at Lidya Su: "What did you say?"

"It's nothing." Sure enough, no one in this world could understand this joke. Su Xiao made a gesture, "Please continue."

Dante just thought that what Su Xiao just said was Siris' slang, so he didn't hesitate and continued.

"The day my son hit someone and killed him was October [-]th, and the day I took my son to a restaurant near the school was October [-]th."

"

People's concept of time is not that reliable. After a while, they will not remember clearly whether it was October [-]th or October [-]th, but they will remember that my son took me to visit their school. . "

"Only with an alibi can my son be cleared of suspicion and let the Salamanca group suspect others."

"Since then, nothing that worried me has happened. Killers from the Salamanca Group did not suddenly break into my house, and there were no suspicious cars following Jose."

"Everything was as if nothing had happened. Later, Jose successfully obtained a bachelor's degree from New York University, entered the company "Qilu Division Optical", and got a young and beautiful girlfriend. My girlfriend Business is also getting better, and more and more branches have been opened. "

“I thought this was the end of the matter, that this nightmare would be over, that the Salamanca Group would never know who did it, and would never harass me and my son, but I didn't expect... you will know what happened next."

There was silence in the VIP room.

Su Xiao stroked the cup.

He knew that it couldn't be a low-level gangster plotting against Dante's son.

He was right.

His son killed someone else's son. No wonder someone kidnapped Dante's son.

However, there is still a problem that Lidya Su cannot figure out.

If the Salamanca Group didn't know who the murderer was when Hector's only son died, how do they know it now?

You know, the longer the time passes, the more difficult it is to restore the truth.

If they had known the truth, they would not have allowed Dante and his son to live comfortably and happily for the past few years.

Lidya Su asked this question

It's a pity that even Dante doesn't know the answer.

……

Dante is willing to pay 1000 million euros and reimburse all the expenses for the round trip.

But Su Xiao only wants 800 million from the other party.

Taking 200 million less in exchange for Dante's gratitude.

Since Dante's son has been in the hands of the Salamanca Group for more than a day, without further delay, Su Xiao and the others set off.

Before leaving, Dante suggested: "I'll take you there on my private plane."

Lidya Su's eyes lit up: "That would be the best."

Su Xiao's original plan was to drive to Tijuana instead of flying.

Because you are not allowed to carry weapons on the plane.

There was no way they could fly to Tijuana and then buy weapons locally.

The weapons control in Tijuana is much stricter than that in Night City. If you don’t have a gun license and you are not a local, the gun shop will not sell you weapons at all.

But they didn't expect that Dante actually had his own private plane, so they could bring weapons on the plane.

Then in just a few hours they could land in Tijuana.

If nothing else happens, Dante will be reunited with his son tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

The discussion was finalized and everyone walked out together. At this moment, Jack suddenly said: "Wait a minute, I'll go with you too."

"You..." Lidya Su was stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect Jack to take the initiative.

"Then what do you do here?"

"Isn't it going to be back soon? There's nothing to do after a day or two. Besides, I'm just the successor now, not really replacing the priest. Besides, there's still a priest here."

Jack moved his fingers so loudly that they made a crackling sound: "I haven't been out for too long, and my body is rusty. Su, you won't dislike me, right?"

Su Xiao smiled: "Brother, why would you dislike you? Since you have no problem here, let's come together."

……

After coming out of Cangbi Building, everyone split up.

Jack and Dante took a taxi to the international airport, and before Su Xiao and the others arrived, the private plane was ready to take off at any time.

Lucy and V drove an armored SUV to Su Xiao's apartment in the valley area and brought several weapon boxes with them.

This trip is the first long-distance battle. Although it is not expected to take long, it is best to be fully prepared as we are afraid of anything unexpected.

Su Xiao herself rode a Fenrir motorcycle and went to see Rogge in the next life.

He needed to go to Roger's and buy something cool.

……

Jack and Dante were the first to arrive at Night City International Airport.

While still on the road, Dante called his pilot and asked him to fill the plane with fuel and be ready to take off at any time.

When he arrived at the airport, Dante was still uneasy and went to his private plane to check it himself.

After confirming that everything was correct, Jack and I waited at the entrance of the terminal.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, V and Lucy finally arrived.

They carried several boxes with weapons that might be used.
