Cyberpunk: 2075

General" Rick Morton is dead. Is this big news?

Of course it is big news, even if it is put into WNS News, it can be a special report, but the content may not be very friendly, because everyone knows that the company behind WNS News is Arasaka, and Six Street Gang Boss happens to be closely related to military technology, but News 54, a TV station with military technology behind it, might do a commemorative report on Rick Morton.

It is foreseeable that this news will spread throughout Night City in a short time, and as this news spreads, gang conflicts will definitely follow.

Very simple reason.

When the leader of a gang dies, regardless of how he died, his death will definitely purge a group of die-hard loyalists of the old boss as the new boss comes to power, and in the process the gang's strength will inevitably be depleted. Attrition means that the gang will not be able to occupy the originally divided territory and will have to vomit some of it.

"Valentino, the Tiger Claw Gang, and even the Night Walkers in Bad Land may all be thinking about the Sixth Street Gang during this time."

Jack got out of the Delamain taxi and said to Oliver who also got out of the car: "It seems we came at the right time.

"I didn't expect Will Cannon to take action now. It seems that he has accumulated enough strength to suppress all the dissatisfaction in the gang. Oliver has no feelings about the death of "General" Rick Morton, the boss of the Sixth Street Gang. Although he is called a general, it only describes how he treats his subordinates like Just as a general treats soldiers casually, this does not represent his ability to manage his subordinates. It can even be said that "General" Rick Morton is actually a very incompetent guy. If you think about it, you know that a capable guy will not let him Will Cannon has developed strength under his hands that can surpass his boss.

It's just that when the general was there, the Sixth Street Gang could at least maintain a semblance of stability. Although the general's supporters and Will Cannon's supporters didn't like each other, they were both members of the Sixth Street Gang. For the sake of humanity, I can maintain some semblance of peace.

But now with the death of "General" Rick Morton, this brief peace within the gang is obviously over.

"Oliver, you are from the Sixth Street Gang. Who do you think the general was killed by?"

V got out of another Delamain taxi, along with T-BUG and Carl. V looked at Oliver and asked, "Could it be Will Cannon who did it?"

"Nine times out of ten, Will Cannon has wanted to be the boss for a long time, but in the past he was not powerful enough to be the boss in a name that was fair and aboveboard, so he has been accumulating strength, and as he grows With continuous expansion and success, he has become equal to or even surpassed the general internally. Do you think that at this time, he can still tolerate an incompetent general sitting on top of him? "

Oliver adjusted his clothes, looked at an American-style bungalow in the distance that was very common in Santo Domingo, and continued:

"And to behead someone, you must first cut off the general who can be supported by the people on the general's side. There are not many people in the entire Sixth Street Gang who can compare with Will Cannon in terms of qualifications and deeds. His skills It’s really a good game. Maybe if you do it well, there won’t be any internal fighting at all, and you may be able to take over the Sixth Street Gang smoothly.”

"Are you forced to obey the general trend? It sounds like he played a good trick. At that time, except for some die-hard elements, maybe the people on the other side will not have the courage to fight with the general after losing the people they support. Confronted.”

Karl said, watching Delamain leave, and led by Oliver, he walked towards the ordinary American-style bungalow in the distance: "But uncle doesn't know how to obey Will Cannon, right?"

"How can you be convinced?"

Oliver said angrily: "Well, Will Cannon and my dad didn't deal with each other before, and then something happened when I was kicked out of the Sixth Street Gang. The two sides completely fell out. My dad's character I know that if I let him obey Will Cannon, it would be better to let him die. You know, he had planned to train me to be his heir in the gang. "

"So do you regret not being a gang master or something?"

"I regret it so much. I became a mercenary with Carl and you guys. I have never done anything so correct and convenient in my life. Think about what life I lived in the past. How can it be compared with now? The Sixth Street Gang, the Sliding Street Gang !”

"If your uncle hears what you said, he will probably teach you a lesson."

After saying this, Karl also understood the matter: "In other words, even if the general dies, uncle, he will definitely start fighting with Will Cannon, right?"

"Ninety-nine percent of the time, his stubborn temperament is not the temperament to watch Will Cannon, the biggest suspect in the murder of the former boss, take the position of boss."

America's traditional old man does have this temperament. Compared with the young people of the new era, he is more stubborn, but there is nothing wrong with this temperament.

"Then we know what to do next."

Jack grinned: "When we were passing through Santo Domingo in a bad land, we were blocked by Will Cannon's people. I still remember that incident. I finally have the opportunity to repay the favor."

As several people talked, they gradually approached the American-style bungalow, and in this house, a father and daughter were having a conversation.

"You should get out of here."

Nottingham Winrio was sitting on the sofa, looking at the ever-changing gang news that he could see, and said to his daughter Marianne Winrio: "I am going to vote for the next Sixth Street president right away. It’s a meeting with the boss, and it might be a little dangerous then.

You can't stay here any longer. "

"Are you going to face Will Cannon, father?"

Marianne frowned and said, "In this situation, there may not be many people who can stand on your side."

"You have to go even if you don't have one."

Nottingham's tone was calm: "Just because no one else is willing to do something, you can't just do it yourself. In this case,

The Sixth Street Gang is really going to end. If no one does it, I will do it. Will Cannon, if he really killed Rick, then there is nothing I can say to make him become the boss of the Sixth Street Gang. Sixth Street The gang has become degenerate enough. The people under Will Cannon have begun to collect protection money from people on the streets. If this continues, our Sixth Street Gang will sooner or later become like the Tiger Claw Gang. "

"But father, if you go, will there be any danger? Let's call Oliver back. He is very capable now. With him here, maybe you will be safer?"

Listening to his daughter's words, Nottingham changed slightly. He hesitated.

As a father, it is actually quite difficult for his children to ask for help. This not only means that as a father, he has admitted that he is getting old, but also means that he has witnessed the growth of his children.

Nottingham is not sure whether his son has grown up like this. Has he really grown up or is he just relying on his friends to reach this point?

He didn't know clearly, but a word from outside the house came in without giving him an answer.

"I'm back, Dad."

Oliver Winrio opened the door.
