Indescribable cyberpunk

Buzz~

A low hum came from the corner of the street on the left.

Zhu Jue took off his coat and stuffed it into his ring, put on the brown-gray suit he had worn in the clinic before, and returned to his gentleman appearance. He relied on his own ability to clean the rainwater off his body. He took out a pair of glasses and put them on slowly. Step out of the alley.

The three muzzles locked him almost as soon as he took one step forward.

Three soldiers carrying the iconic epaulettes of D6 Prison on their shoulders and wearing black one-piece combat uniforms surrounded Zhu Jue, looked at him, and then immediately withdrew.

There was no intention of asking from the beginning to the end, so Zhu Jue's original draft was useless.

Compared to a passerby's description, they believed more in the information collected from the Qianfan City Intelligent Network, even if the target person had always been the killer who had been dead for more than five years.

Standing in front of a vending machine, Zhu Jue casually ordered a bottle of drink. His left shoulder was drooped, making him look a little loose.

The results of this prison visit can be seen from the situation just now.

In Zhu Jue's previous expectation, there must be difficulties, so he was ready to bribe the prison guards and higher-level people. He also withdrew some cash in advance and kept it in his arms. At the same time, Zhu Jue also considered the eventuality. What to do if the target refuses communication because he doesn't know him.

However, what Zhu Jue never expected was that he just vaguely asked to meet the person in charge of the human rights march. The prison guard took him into a room as if he was well prepared and informed his superiors directly without saying a word. They prepared to arrest him without even giving him a chance to explain.

In just a few minutes, the entire corridor lit up with a red alarm, and the sound of boots hitting the floor could be heard clearly through both walls.

Killing all these people is not that difficult for Zhu Jue, it’s just a blizzard. The key is that after killing them, not only will he not get what he wants, but he may also attract special troops from Qianfan City, which will make the next The investigation ran into greater trouble.

In desperation, he could only choose to retreat.

This prison visit seemed to be a complete failure from every angle, because Zhu Jue could not even figure out the name of the target, not to mention meeting him.

However, Zhu Jue has always been an optimistic person. Drinking the yogurt he just bought, he quickly found some valuable information from this failure.

The leader of the human rights march he wanted to meet was not as simple as he thought before!

Why does D6 Prison care so much about a leader of a grassroots movement who has been in prison for three years?

So much so that Zhu Jue was treated in this way by the people in prison just for saying that he wanted to see the other person. This is completely unreasonable!

Zhu Jue is not a fool. He had internal discussions with Suzi before coming here. As early as three years ago, Qianfan City announced the cessation of the human rights movement, and these leaders, without exception, were either arrested or arrested. arrested, or died during the arrest.

Now it seems that this is obviously just a one-sided statement by the Qianfan City government.

If the solution is as simple and quick as they said, these leaders will naturally lose any value. After all, it is already three years later, and the super city of Thousand Sail City has already had its own independent system. Even if these leaders Even if a few people are released, they won't have much impact.

The response from D6 prison undoubtedly disproves this statement.

Human rights organizations must have a lot of influence outside, otherwise the officials would not be so nervous about this kind of thing, and what made Zhu Jue a little strange was that their response was too quick. He was sure that what he was asking was just a low-level warning from an office. That's all, this was just a tentative conversation, but it turned out to be the trigger for a roundup.

When did even police officers at this level have access to this information?

Is there any other hidden secret in this?

He grabbed the deflated yogurt box, subconsciously gave it a final slurp, and threw it into the trash can next to him, preparing to return to the clinic to discuss it with Motoko.

There may still be value for human rights organizations to follow up, but such a blatant investigation is definitely not possible, and with my current information channels, it seems difficult to obtain information from such organizations.

Ding bell~

Zhu Jue's thoughts were interrupted by the notification sound of a new message on his phone.

"Dr. Hannibal Lecter, your certificate has been processed. Please come and collect it as soon as possible. If you need us to send the certificate, please provide the detailed delivery address - the federal government office in Thousand Sails City."

"The efficiency is quite fast, the federal government office in Qianfan City"

He rubbed the screen with his thumb, wiping away the raindrops flying in from outside the umbrella, and tapped the message suffix with his fingertip.

Recalling the previous agreement between Qianfan City and Chu Yun, compared with Zhu Jue and Suzi, two people who came to Qianfan City for the first time, the federal government, which has been operating in this city for many years, obviously has more connections and other resources.

Open the address book, flip through the rows of numbers, and find the one that was recently added.

This is the contact information given by Chu Yun. It comes from an employee of the federal government's office in Qianfan City and is also Zhu Jue's liaison.

Half an hour later, Zhu Jue appeared in Community No. 15 in an airship. Following the address on the message, he arrived at the door of a cafe.

"Rona Uncos."

What appeared in front of Zhu Jue was a white man with a strong frame, but he looked a little shrunken. His two light brown eyebrows and wrinkles on his forehead were twisted, and his whole face looked a little embarrassed, not at all. Such a strong and imposing figure.

(He has a lot of worries. There is a wedding ring on his ring finger. It seems that it must be family. For a man of this age, financial pressure may account for a lot. He should have received a lot of cold treatment and rejection, otherwise he would not shrink to this point. ,)

After changing his gaze several times, Zhu Jue quickly made a preliminary judgment on the person in front of him.

"Hannibal Lecter, give me a cup of milk tea with more sugar. It would be better if there are red beans."

After dismissing the waiter who came over, Zhu Jue briefly introduced himself and sat across from him.

"This is the certificate of a private clinic. If you need to add anything, please feel free to contact me."

He took out a yellow document bag from the briefcase beside him and handed it to Zhu Jue. He then took a hesitant sip of coffee before continuing,

"Miss Chu said you can give me a chance to get promoted and leave here. Sorry, I'm not doubting anything, I just want to confirm. After all, this is very important to me."

As a government official, this job may be the golden and iron rice bowl in the eyes of many people.

Five years ago, this was indeed the case.

However, five years later, especially for those government employees in cities controlled by consortiums, this hot cake has become useless.

They no longer enjoy government benefits, and their status in all aspects has plummeted.

Not only are the senior officials of Thousand Sail City constantly squeezing and suppressing them, but even within the federal government, they have begun to gradually reduce funding after realizing that they are unable to make a difference. This is something that can't be helped. Today's federal government can There is not that much money to maintain the original huge system.

Salary cuts and layoffs have happened almost every few months in recent years.

This is almost bad news for Rona Nkaus, a middle-aged man who has been in government agencies for more than ten years.

If he was fired at his age, it would be almost impossible to find a new job, so he cherished any opportunity that could consolidate his position or even take a step forward.

It was precisely because of this that Chu Yun chose him.

"Promotion?"

Zhu Jue was startled at first because there was no such content in his agreement with Chu Yun, but soon he understood what the latter meant and said,

"That's right, I came to Qianfan City to investigate a special case. I need someone who is familiar with the situation here to help me. If you can bring me enough valuable information, I will give you a certain amount of money personally. Remuneration, this is an advance deposit, please accept it with dignity."

As he spoke, he took out the cash from his pocket and put it in front of Rona. He originally thought that the cash used to bribe the prison guards would be used here. Originally, according to his agreement with Chu Yun, the two parties would use information to trade, but this did not hinder Zhu Jue can use other methods to obtain more information, right?

I am the one who wants to bribe you. Whether you can resist it or not is Rona Nkaos’s business!

Unsurprisingly, after seeing the thick roll of cash on the table, Rona's eyes that were still a little depressed immediately started to shine.

"Please rest assured that I will do my best to cooperate with your investigation!"

Grab the cash roll and hold it firmly in your hand.

God, you still have mercy on me.

Rona thought so.

"It seems we have reached a consensus, can I ask a question?"

Zhu Jue asked with a smile after taking the milk tea from the waiter.

"Of course, you can always ask me, in fact I look forward to your questions."

His right hand was flipping the cash rolls under the table. Each one was of the largest denomination. A rough count showed that there were nearly two thousand federal coins at least.

This caused the depression on Rona's face to dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was replaced by a smile "from the heart".

From today on, taking money to do things is Rona's motto in life!
