Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Three metal capsules were given to my parents and sister respectively. Zhuang Xuteng watched them swallow, and finally let go of his hanging heart. He was very grateful to Boss Qian for his final arrangement. Three capsules were just right. If there was more, he didn't know who to give it to.

Zhuang Xuteng definitely didn't want to eat it himself. According to Boss Qian's explanation, the way to protect the capsule is to bring good luck to people. This invisible and intangible luck will mislead Zhuang Xuteng and affect his judgment of the real danger. He knows very well that as a mercenary, every mission will encounter risks, and the so-called good luck will be quickly exhausted. If you cannot accurately grasp when luck disappears, and at the same time your vigilance and sense of urgency are lowered by good luck, failure and death are not far away.

His parents and sister, on the other hand, lived an ordinary life. They did not actively seek trouble, and there were relatively few dangers. They usually don't "waste" the capsule's good luck, so that they can still have some luck when they need it most.

Zhuang Xuteng couldn't bear it when he looked at his parents at home and noticed how hard they tried to hide their sadness. He originally wanted to tell his parents about his property of more than 40 million euros, or bring them to the city to live in retirement, but he also realized a serious problem: Zhuang Teng's death is not necessarily the end of the action. and his family may still be under surveillance, and it is not appropriate to act at this time. Now we can only continue to wait. On the one hand, we will wait for ourselves to become stronger and have the ability to protect them. On the other hand, we will wait for the company to relax its vigilance and become careless.

Zhuang Xuteng must assume that the company has already known that he is a mercenary, and he must pay attention to his reputation - in a more low-key and covert way. The best way to hide oneself is to "disappear from everyone". Just like his face, it has few features, does not attract attention, and is easily forgotten. This requires him to act like a normal mercenary, which means taking on tasks and doing business, instead of hiding in the dark and holding back bad ideas like a careerist and conspirator all day long.

Therefore, Zhuang Xuteng called Ge Gongdao, and the two met to go to Lucy's music restaurant.

Zhuang Xuteng had been busy dealing with Zhuang Teng's affairs before, and all of Zhuang Xuteng's time was occupied, so he neglected some other issues. During this time, Ge Gongdao had moved to the building where Zhuang Xuteng lived. He lived five floors below, and Prince also moved in with him. Nightingale and Rock Bird are sure to live above Zhuang Xuteng, but they have not officially moved in yet. The living environment required by field intelligence officers is more complex, and they have higher requirements for treatment and maintenance. There will be more equipment in this area, and they must reserve installation space in advance.

This means renovation, which means Lucy can make another round of money.

"I've been looking for you to have warm-pot meals these past few days, but you're not here every time." Ge Gongdao patted Zhuang Xuteng's arm and said, "When your cat hears me, it keeps scratching the door, as if it's... Complaining—what have you been doing lately?”

"There are some things at home. I'm in a bad mood and quite busy - but I've almost taken care of it." Zhuang Xuteng smiled. He had already hidden his emotions, and even Ge Gongdao didn't notice the clues. "I've been at home these days. I'll go whenever you call me. By the way, do you want to call your sister-in-law when you see Prince?"

"No, absolutely no, you'd better call her by her name. No other time, just today, I'll tell her." Ge Gongdao nudged Zhuang Xuteng with his elbow and said, "I think you should know Nightingale The two women and Yanque live above us. In my opinion, they are most likely coming for you. You must be careful, don't forget that there is Morgana! I have to remind you One sentence: Dealing with women and solving entrusted tasks are completely different. Don't throw yourself into trouble."

Nightingale and Yanque came to him to solve the side effects of the implant, not to find a boyfriend. Zhuang Xuteng knew that Brother Dao had misunderstood, but he couldn't explain it. He could only say that he would be careful. Then he changed the topic to the hotpot banquet and asked Brother Dao who was cooking at home.

"Of course we buy and eat. The two of us are only good at cooking ready-made food, so we might as well buy semi-finished products and heat them on the stove at home to warm up the pot. Naike, don't laugh at Prince's craftsmanship , she will be angry; of course, don’t praise her craftsmanship, she will think you are laughing at her. In short, although it is a warm pot feast, the focus is never on the food. "

"I understand, I understand." Zhuang Xuteng smiled and nodded, then pushed open the door of Lucy's office. His smile startled Lucy, but she always wore a mask, so Gorgondo couldn't see the problem.

"Close the door. There is a yellow button on the right side of the door. Please help Naike press it."

After pressing the button, melodious and soothing music filled the room. Zhuang Xuteng felt that this symphony was very familiar and guessed that it was some classic piece. His knowledge of music only reaches this level, and the only praise he can express is two words: "It sounds good."

Lucy laughed and said: "Sit down first, sit down first. Do you think it sounds good? This is not the original song. It contains special audio that can disrupt the speech. If you are particularly familiar with the original song, I feel like it..."

"I'm not familiar with it, but it doesn't mean that only the original music can sound good. Is this an anti-eavesdropping technology?"

"Yes, the casino group is currently conducting an investigation in Peicheng, so it's better to be careful. Just the day before yesterday, they found me through someone's introduction and wanted me to provide them with some information. I said my people were busy, There were still some internal issues to deal with, and at the same time, we were busy snatching people from the mercenary market. We really couldn’t get away, so we declined. I introduced them to Henry Henderson, saying that he should be free over there.”

Ge Gongdao applauded Lucy and praised her for being very cunning. "Once Henry knows that you threw the trouble to him, he probably won't have a good look on you. This won't affect how you handle the follow-up affairs, right?"

"Brother Dao, they must have discussed it in advance. The best way to eliminate the danger is to eliminate it. I guess they have dug a hole and are just waiting for the people from the casino group to jump in." Zhuang Xuteng looked at Lucy with a smile. Said: "Are you right what I said?"

Has this kid adjusted yet? Or is his ability to control his emotions stronger? Lucy observed Zhuang Xuteng through the mask and was secretly frightened by his current performance. She believed that Zhuang Xuteng had been showing his true feelings after Zhuang Teng's car accident, and what he was showing now was also his true acting skills. No wonder he is qualified for the tasks of lurking, investigation and assassination. It turns out that he has talent in this area.

"Yes, you are right. Our current push is to better bring the people of the casino group into the ditch. I will not tell you the specific action plan. If action is needed, we will call you. Facts have proved that, The casino group is still very profitable, but this time the most we can do is enjoy the soup, and the meat and vegetables must be shared with other forces in Peicheng."

Both were shrewd enough to understand why this arrangement was made. Ge Gongdao pinched his nose and said, "Talking about drinking soup and eating meat, has the meat been marinated before?"

"It's still a little short of heat, but there are some good snacks. I came here to discuss this with you." Lucy waved her hands and said: "This time, the things cannot be left on paper, nor can we discuss on the phone. Say it out of me and into your ears, that's the only way they can exist."

Lucy cleared her throat slightly and said: "According to the informant's information, Sanke Yingcong Biotechnology Company will recently conduct routine maintenance on a batch of military implants, including three hundred Striker F model battlefield suits, Seven hundred sets of driver G-assist suits, and then some matching scattered implants. This work will of course be carried out in batches, and each transport batch will be about a hundred sets, divided into five vehicles."

"These implants were supplied by Today's Group to the army in the late stages of the corporate war. Before they could find the right person to install them, the corporate war came to an end. So this batch of goods has been kept by the army and placed in their warehouse. Originally, The shelf life of the packaging has reached its limit and must be re-inspected, maintained, and packaged. This task was handed over to Sanke Yingcong Biotechnology Company."

Upon hearing the news, Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao looked at each other and frowned together. "Lucy, this is quite tricky..." Ge Gongdao scratched his head and said: "What do you mean by informant? Do you want us to steal things from the Constitutional Defense Force? If it is a riot control unit, we grit our teeth, but that's fine. Dare to take action, but for the military... the risk is too high."

"Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet." Lucy said: "The requirements given by the Constitutional Army this time are: fifteen years of packaging. In other words, except for a few random inspections, most implants will still have to be stored after they are shipped back. Up, and... even if fifteen years is too many, there will always be seven or eight years - it’s unlikely that they will actually be unsealed and used.”

Zhuang Xuteng's eyes lit up, and he probably understood what was going on.

Lucy smiled and said: "Send it off as a good one, and you can exchange it for a good one. I can get you two sets of Striker Battlefield Set or Driver Assistance Set. You only need to do one thing: pay. .”

Zhuang Xuteng was about to ask how much it would cost, but Ge Gongdao stopped him and said, "Can the company's goods during the war still be useful today? How many side effects will there be? How much function of the implant can be left?"

"The informant happens to know which set has the greatest residual value and the best effect, and he promised to come up with the best one. But having said that, we have no way to confirm the quality of the item before we actually get it." Lucy tilted her head. He held his head, holding his chin with one hand, and said: "Actually, I'm not sure about something. Should I tell the informant that we are still tormenting the casino group, implying that we can continue to vent his anger on him."

"It's not necessary, the risk is too great, and the reward is too small compared to the risk - don't forget that the guy has a flawed character, don't let him know too much." Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said, "We still Let’s talk about the price…”

"The full set of Striker F is 3.4 million euros, and the driving assistance G package is 2.6 million euros."

Ge Gongdao was stunned for a moment and sighed: "Is it a complete set? It's much cheaper than I thought."

"Indeed... the Striker can be said to be the best high-speed explosive implant produced by the company, right?"

Lucy nodded and said: "Your assessment is basically correct. If you want to be more precise, you have to add the modifier 'last corporate war'. The company will market new implants to the military every once in a while. After all, implant solutions can earn military expenses! However, there is no risk of corporate war now, so the purchase volume is very small, not as large as Striker Suit F. The price of these two implant suits on the black market is 50% higher , and it must have been taken from a dead person.”

"I think it's okay, the price is too attractive, especially for unused implants - even if it's a second-hand product, it's fine as long as it's not second-hand." Zhuang Xuteng expressed: "I want a set of Strikers. "

"Don't worry, there is still something unsaid!" Ge Gongdao said: "The informant was able to get the implant, but he didn't say anything about maintaining the equipment or installing it. Do we still need to think about this ourselves? Method?"

"It can be solved. There is no new maintenance equipment, but a complete set of equipment can be pieced together on the black market. It will definitely work. As for the installation method, as far as I know, the attacker does need a special installation method, which can effectively reduce the side effects. I will let The informant came up with something by the way."

Ge Gongdao nodded and said: "Well... I think it's okay. The rest is how to pay and ensure safety. The number of implants to be repaired and maintained this time is large, and the army must be keeping a close eye on it, and it may There are other middlemen and mercenaries watching, and it’s never going to be as simple as going to the supermarket to buy a beer – do we need to take action?”

"No. Neither Henry nor I will send anyone, but will entrust other mercenaries to act through a secret third party. The casino group is in Peicheng, and they may think that there is such an 'enemy'. Sometimes, mad dogs bite randomly It will also bite the right target, so you have to guard against it!"

"So what the two of us have to do is pay and wait for the letter?" Zhuang Xuteng smiled and said, "Sister Lucy, our money is all with you, you can handle it all directly. We will just contribute our bodies. Waiting for the implant to be installed.”

"It's not that simple." Brother Dao shook his head and said: "If you think about the price of a striker, will it be used by ordinary soldiers? Its use must be related to the method and process of selecting strikers in the Constitutional Army. Today The implant systems developed by the Group and the Scarlet Group can only be used to their maximum effect under specific circumstances, rather than being good products within the company that can be used however you want. I guess we have to learn from those in the military. "

Lucy raised her hands, clapped slowly, and said, "Yes, that's what I heard. According to the feedback from the road, the more experienced the army is, the better it can use this system, and the side effects will be relatively small. .So some security companies, gangs, or wealthy people who need nursing homes prefer to recruit veterans to install such systems.”

"The army doesn't have a crash course like PCPD, right?" Zhuang Xuteng asked, "Do you want us to join the army?"

"I won't let you go! I will find someone to train you. The training is closed. Within two or three months, you will have no choice but to disappear."

Disappeared? Zhuang Xuteng did not intend to do this. He wants to "become invisible to everyone". During this critical period, he should start accepting commissions and making money to support his family. Suddenly hiding for training will only increase his "suspect" and attract more attention and in-depth investigation from the company.

So he said: "I have a better idea. The military's training is also constantly strengthening from the basics upwards. Brother Dao and I can find someone to contact the basics first. After we get the implant and confirm that it is of good quality and worthy of installation, Then carry out specialized intensive training. Basic training does not require avoiding people, and we can continue to take jobs and earn money, which also meets our requirements for final operations."

"That makes sense... Then I'll find you ordinary soldiers first?"

"We have our own candidate." Zhuang Xuteng looked at Brother Dao and said, "Do you think Doyle is qualified? Can he agree?"
