Start in Night City

The bullet that came out of the barrel accurately broke the shoe.

The glitter inside the shoes poured down and sprinkled on the carriage of the truck.

The driver was startled by the gunfire and thought there was a gunfight nearby. He quickly stepped on the accelerator and the truck sped away.

After the truck completely disappeared from sight, Su Xiao stood up from the ground and put the Ice Storm sniper rifle on his back.

Call Jack and V.

"Okay, we can go back."

"What?" Jack looked confused.

That's it?

Is this the end?

No clearing a few magazines, no killing, and it's done?

His face was full of disbelief.

And V seemed to have guessed something, thoughtfully.

…

The driver drove the truck to the border inspection station and waited for departure.

He touched his whole body and found that there was not a missing part or a bleeding wound.

I couldn't help but breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Sitting in the car, patiently waiting for inspection.

Pull the goods from the Whole Foods factory and sell them to the Badlands.

He didn't know how many times he had done this.

He is familiar with the process.

There will be no problem.

"Didi! Didi!"

Just then, the siren suddenly screamed like crazy.

The border guard aimed his gun at the truck as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

"Get out of the car quickly!"

"Be honest! Don't play tricks!"

"Put your hands up where I can see them! Quick!"

The driver didn't know what was going on, so he was roughly pulled out of the car and pushed to the ground.

"Search carefully!"

The border guards opened the cargo compartment and began a blanket inspection.

But after rummaging through the cargo compartment, all they found were food shipped from the Whole Foods factory.

Everything looks fine.

A senior guard seemed to have an idea.

He pulled out his dagger and slashed and slashed the truck's tires.

Sure enough, we found packages of shiny things hidden inside the tires.

The driver who was pushed to the ground looked ashen.

This time Barbie is Q.

The job was messed up.

Even if he doesn't go to jail, the Uzumaki Gang will not let him go.

The border guards don't care what the driver thinks.

This is a great achievement.

One of his subordinates happily went to call and report to the company, but was stopped by the webmaster.

"Wait, don't report it yet."

"Boss?"

The men's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.

The webmaster had other plans.

This truck has a Whole Foods factory logo on it.

Whole Foods Factory is Brick's territory among the Uzumaki Gang.

The Whirlpool Gang is divided into many branches, and Brick is just one of the leaders.

If so, please report this situation.

The most the company can do is encourage and reward them and that's it.

There is an egg for that.

Therefore, the webmaster has a better idea than reporting it.

If he uses this as a threat, let Brick give himself a little profit.

Isn’t it beautiful?

"You go down first and keep an eye on the person and other things for me. When the matter is done, I'll make sure you get something good."

The men nodded.

Although he was not very clear about it, after receiving the assurance from the stationmaster, he went out with excitement on his face.

The webmaster stayed where he was, thinking over his next words to deal with Brick several times in his mind, and he thought he was perfect.

Just as he was about to call Brick, a call came in.

But it was Mayor Ryan.

The webmaster's expression changed, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

And this is indeed the case.

Mayor Lane's first words were.

"I heard that the Uzumaki Gang from the Whole Foods Factory used trucks to smuggle in glitter. Is this true?"

The webmaster felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

Only then did I realize that among these border guards there were the mayor’s spies.

It must be the mayor's spy who tipped the mayor off.

In this case, it was impossible for him not to admit it.

There is no army in Night City.

In addition to the NCPD and the Terrorist Mobile Team, they are also under the control of the city hall.

Everything else has been outsourced to companies.

For example, border inspection stations are staffed by military technology personnel.

Of course, the webmaster is also a military technology person.

As the webmaster, he was directly appointed by the company, and the city hall did not pay him a salary. Of course, he was not afraid of Mayor Lane.

But if the mayor goes to military technology.

I wanted to rip off Brick before, but I couldn't.

It's very uncomfortable.

"You have done a good job on this matter. You have worked hard. However, you don't need to worry about the next thing. I will let the NCPD handle it. You can just have a good rest."

Chapter 22 No one knows NCPD better than me

The webmaster vomited blood.

This was the last thing he wanted to see.

He didn't let his subordinates report it to the company because he didn't want the company to get involved.

Unexpectedly, the company did not come, but Mayor Ryan came.

The process is different, but the result is still the same.

If you do nothing, not only will your wishful thinking fail, but the credit will also be taken away by others.

Suddenly, he had an idea.

"Wait a minute, Mayor Lane, I think there may be room for change."

"Huh? Tell me."

"Whole Foods Factory has been providing food to the bottom of Night City. Their interests are already high, so there is no need to take risks. I guess there may be a few dirty guys under Brick who hide this from Brick. Did it secretly.”

"so what?"

"I don't think we need to send people to raid. We can call Brick out and let's talk about it together. Since it's his men who did the bad things, let him clean up the house on his own. Of course, he has to pay a fine as a warning. Follow suit."

Although the webmaster's words seemed like he was begging for mercy.

But if you use your brain a little, you will know that it is impossible for a border inspection station chief to intercede for a gang leader.

This was actually a tactful reminder to the mayor.

Being too tough will only result in a broken situation.

It's better to ask Brick for a favor.

Of course, the webmaster knew that if Mayor Ryan got involved, the mayor would definitely take away the bulk of the money.

Not to mention eating meat, if you can chew a bone, that's pretty good.

But even so, it's better than getting nothing.

You eat the meat, I gnaw the bones, and let old boy Brick drink the soup.

Hello, me, hello, everyone, is really good.

On the other end of the phone, Mayor Ryan's voice came slowly.

"I understand what you mean."

The webmaster couldn't help but feel excited: "Then mayor..."

"But I refuse! As the mayor of Night City, I am inseparable from evil. How can I be complicit in it?"

Mayor Lane was impassioned and his righteousness seemed to burst out from his eyes.

"Since you cracked such a big deal and provided important clues, I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said, but next time, don't ask me to remind you."

After saying that, Mayor Lane ended the communication.

Inseparable from sin?

The webmaster twitched the corners of his mouth with a mocking expression on his face.

He, the webmaster, also climbed up through the bloody power struggle within Military Technology.

How can we not know what Mayor Lane is thinking?

Although Night City is an independent city that does not belong to any country.

But it is not a dictatorship city after all.

Ryan has been in the position of mayor for quite some time.

More than once, he was accused of taking money from companies.

In fact, during the last election, it had already lost the support of the people and should have gone away long ago.

It was New America that "helped" him.

The last election in Night City happened to be during the Unification War.
