from night city

Generally speaking, if someone in your family suddenly disappears, even if there is no conclusive evidence, you will doubt whether he has betrayed or collaborated with the enemy.

This is especially true for gangs like the Voodoo Gang, which hide in the shadows and never see the light of day.

If they hadn't been so cautious, they would have been wiped out long ago, and they wouldn't be alive until now.

"They will not transfer because the informant who reported the news to me did not run away, but continued to stay in the Voodoo Gang."

Rogge glanced at Lidya Su's face and continued: "Well, I had the same expression as you at first, but then I realized what was going on."

"If it's a gang like the Tiger Claw Gang or the Sixth Street Gang, then if he goes to Europe, he's getting rid of them."

"But the Voodoo Gang is different. No matter where you go, they will probably find you."

"And once they find you, they have a way to kill you."

Su Xiao was silent.

He thought of Evelyn.

The Voodoo Gang is a hacker gang, and they are different from gangs like the Tiger Claw Gang and the Sixth Street Gang.

They can really follow the network cable and burn out people's skulls.

"So, he will only leave after making sure that all his companions are killed."

"Is such that."

If Rogge's spy has not left the Voodoo Gang, then this is undoubtedly good news.

In this way, the Voodoo Gang would not know that the location of their base camp had been leaked.

"How much is the network monitoring bill?"

"500 euros."

Lidya Su raised her eyebrows.

"That doesn't sound like much."

A mere 500 million euros to eliminate a gang that keeps causing trouble?

How about dismissing the beggar?

Is network surveillance too stingy?Or did their people take kickbacks?

Taking kickbacks is also very common abroad.

For example, when a certain project is about to be carried out, a sum of money is allocated from above. As a result, part of the money has been taken away before it reaches the place, and part of it has been taken away again when it reaches the place.

In the end, only a small part was left, which was actually used in this project.

"I think so too, so I need you to go there in person and talk to them face to face."

"How can you be sure that I can negotiate a deal that you can't even negotiate?"

Roger smiled.

"Internet surveillance is not a big culprit. When they found me, I believe they must have also found other middlemen in the city."

"Who among the middlemen in Night City doesn't have a few teams with guaranteed loyalty and abilities? But no one would go to the only hacker gang in the city for a mere 500 million euros."

"Because once you fail to exterminate the Voodoo Gang, you will be remembered by the Voodoo Gang, and you will never have a peaceful life from now on."

"When they have finished searching and can't find a collaborator, you will come to visit them again, and they will realize how valuable you are."

"And, more importantly, don't forget, I also have information about the Voodoo Gang. These are advantages that other middlemen do not have."

"Unless the network monitors can tolerate the Voodoo Gang and continue to poke and poke at the black wall, they will definitely sit down and have a serious discussion with you about the price."

Chapter 292 Since this is the city of dreams, then dreams must come true (3K)

Rogge took out a chip, put it on the table, put it on the table and moved it in front of Su Xiao.

"This is the information my spy gave me. Now I am passing all this information to you. I believe you can make good use of it."

Su Xiao thanked him, picked up the chip, inserted it into the tactical eyepiece, and scanned it briefly. It was indeed information related to the Voodoo Gang. Not only was it a lot, but it was also very important.

So he took out the chip and said seriously: "How much should I pay?"

Rogge waved his hand: "You don't have to pay. If you kill the Voodoo Gang completely and leave no one behind, you are doing me a favor."

Su Xiao suddenly thought at this moment that Rogge also had a grudge against the Voodoo Gang.

The Voodoo Gang wanted to take advantage of her old friend Johnny, and when Roger knew this, their feud was finally over.

Rogge was not just a good old man who was hit on the left cheek, but also stretched out the right cheek to be beaten.

I wrote it down in a notebook early in the morning.

Now, Su Xiao is going to deal with the Voodoo Gang, and Rogge will naturally help him.

Since this information was given to Lidya Su, it was not given in vain. It was also a reward for Lidya Su.

Su Xiao, who understood that everyone got what they needed, didn't show any pretense and accepted it with peace of mind.

After that, the two chatted for a while, and Lidya Su suddenly thought of someone.

"By the way, how is Herman?"

Herman is from Arasaka, and he was the one who created Relic.

After he defected from Arasaka, he accepted the invitation from Military Technology, which wanted to transfer him to Washington DC.

Su Xiao and his group snatched Herman over halfway and sold it to Rogge.

Roger wants this guy to be useful.

It's not that he wants to be immortal like Saburo Arasaka, but he wants Johnny to regain his physical body.

"This guy is not very honest, always thinking about running away, but he obviously thinks too much. After I taught him a few times, and

After making him understand that he can't escape, he behaves better now. "

Although Rogge said it very lightly, Su Xiao knew that it would not be that simple.

But that old boy Herman is serious. Does he still expect that he, a technician, can escape from Rogge's men?

They are all very old, but still so naive. Lidya Su doesn’t know what to say about Herman.

"Then has he found a way to restore Johnny's body?"

Roger sighed.

"There are always ways, Herman said. The Relic that holds Johnny now is designed to seize the host's body at all costs. But the real trouble is that this body can't be a corpse, it has to be with Johnny matches.”

“If there’s a mismatch, it could have unintended consequences.”

This sounds troublesome.

It’s no wonder that Johnny hasn’t shown up until now.

If it can't be a corpse, you can only find a vegetative state.

And have to match up with Johnny.

The consent of the other party’s family is also required.

It is indeed quite troublesome to meet so many of the above conditions at the same time.

"Just let me take care of this headache problem. You don't have to worry about it. You are doing me a favor by going to solve the voodoo problem."

……

After coming out of the "afterlife", Su Xiao did not go back to Stone Ridge Mountain. Instead, she called a Delamain taxi and went straight to Taipingzhou.

Taipingzhou, if you don’t pay attention, is almost the same as the blueprint envisioned back then:

A hotel with sea view rooms and a private swimming pool, a playground for the whole family to spend their vacation, a pier and parasols on the beach...

Well, there’s also trash.

But who calls this the City of Night?

Moreover, this place is located in a prime location, so we will definitely make a profit but not lose any money.

It’s no wonder that the initial batch of investors couldn’t hold back and donated generously.

However, they could not hold on for long. Halfway through the project, even more rare opportunities began to appear.So capital left the market and the unfinished building was shelved.

Gangsters have taken over the magpie's nest, and the planned seaside paradise has turned into a war zone.

The city hall neither bothered to repair it nor bothered to demolish it. It just built a high wall to surround the whole place.

It was originally the first stop for tourists, but now it turns out to be a lawless place where only lunatics go.

As a result, Taipingzhou became the 2077 version that continues the cyberpunk tradition:

On the streets where bullets were flying, there were neither civilians nor NCPD.Hotel signboards are dotted with bullet holes, and remnants of explosives float in luxury swimming pools.

An hour later, Delamain's taxi took Su Xiao to a stop a few hundred meters away from a building called the "Great Empire Mall".

The Great Empire Mall is where the Internet Ombudsman who was sent to Night City to deal with the Voodoo Gang stayed.

That network monitor is not just one person.

He also hired the most powerful Animal Gang, whose leader is the Savage King, as his guard and bodyguard.

They transformed the abandoned Grand Empire Mall into a fortress, which was used as a stronghold and outpost for network surveillance in Taipingzhou.

What Su Xiao has to do now is to get in touch with the network monitor.

Originally, Roger should be the one to handle this kind of discussion about price.

But the network monitor was only willing to give Rogge 500 million euros, which was obviously too little.

So Rogge deliberately ignored the network surveillance, and after he went to find a circle of middlemen in the city and encountered obstacles everywhere, he asked Su Xiao to come to the door with information to ensure maximum profits.

On Su Xiao's side, when she arrived a few hundred meters away from the Great Empire Mall, she was just about to call the number given by Rogge when she suddenly heard a "knock, knock, knock, knock" sound outside the car window.

Su Xiao turned around and looked outside, only to see several street gangsters with weapons outside the car, staring maliciously into the car.

Of course, the windows of Delamain taxis are specially treated.

Only people inside the car can see what's going on outside the window, but people standing outside the car can't see what's inside the car.

However, as soon as he saw the appearance of these gangsters, Su Xiao knew what kind of ideas they were planning.
