"Everyone says that."
Hu Lang gave Pandora a look, not sure if she understood, then inserted the chip into the back of his neck, and his whole body froze.
His consciousness sank deep into his mind, examining the demonic puppet code within the chip.
He completely failed to notice that the large black guy he called Spike had already approached.
And Pandora also picked up a chip and inserted it, turning both of them into puppets.
Placid glanced casually at the two weaklings next to him, not even as thick as one of his arms, and then asked the boss in Haitian,
"No one is causing trouble, right?"
The boss replied, "No, it's the same as usual."
Poverty
is the only issue Haitians in the Taiping Continent have to face.
There are no corporations here, and the only difference from the Evil Land is the presence of skyscrapers.
The only way to survive here is to become an informant or a member of the Voodoo Gang.
Only these guys who hack into other companies' data fortresses, steal confidential information, and run telecom scams have heaps of cash.
Even Lin Miao's computer has received scam emails from the Voodoo Gang.
It can only be said that people have become unscrupulous.
Placid nodded, only showing a trace of helplessness when he glanced at the demonic puppets on the table.
In the eyes of a hacker of his caliber, these things on the table were not much better than toys.
Recently, a group of lunatics have appeared in the city, causing trouble everywhere. The Tiger Claw Gang, Sixth Street Gang, Valentino, Trauma Team... both corporations and gangs have suffered.
A man-eating black bat,
mechas walking in bars,
cyberpsychos who kill everyone once they're seen…
No pattern, no plan, no one knows when they'll get hit.
Only the Taiping Continent is relatively remote, and for now, that group's presence hasn't been seen, but Placid had to be vigilant; perhaps they're right in front of him in some corner, planning against the Voodoo Gang.
"Let me know if you need anything. Night City isn't peaceful lately, and if you find any suspicious individuals, inform me immediately."
After Placid said this, he looked at the two weaklings beside him again.
One wasn't even as tall as his waist, the other's waist wasn't even as thick as his arm, both seemed utterly lacking in vigilance and aggression.
Even a scan didn't reveal any criminal record on them.
Probably just newcomers in the field.
They shouldn't be those ruthless, heinous, murderous mercenary groups.
He shook his head, perhaps he was overthinking it.
He turned and walked towards the bridge, disappearing into the crowd.
A few more minutes passed.
The two little hackers finally snapped out of the data decryption.
Lucy was speechless, how did these two grow up without any sense of caution, fully engrossed in broad daylight.
Of course, this was also because Pandora and the others grew up in a stable environment, taking gunshots as fireworks, naturally different from Lucy and her peers who grew up in life-and-death situations.
"Not bad..." Pandora looked at the simulated virus puppet in her hands, she had new inspiration, ready to create her own new type of puppet and ICE.
"It does feel a bit lacking, not up to Miao's level, though it has learning value."
The demonic puppet in Hu Lang's hand was an electromagnetic puppet, capable of controlling the opponent to perform some actions with weak resistance after forcibly breaking through ICE, but that's all.
Once I break through ICE, what can't I do?
But, well... it does seem interesting.
"Once you've seen it, you have to buy it, folks."
The shopkeeper was also speechless, when have you ever seen someone just crack the shop's demonic puppet code, this was outright provocation.
"Buy, buy, buy."
"Here's the money."
The two paid promptly, but it was only then that they realized that 'Spike' had already disappeared.
They were immediately frustrated.
Hu Lang gave Pandora a reproachful look.
How could she still pretend not to notice?
Pandora glared back mercilessly.
How would I know what your look meant, why didn't you just speak?
Lucy knew she couldn't rely on her two foolish disciples, so she asked the two guards standing behind,
"Brother Ni, did you see?"
"He went up the bridge, probably in the building above the shop, but we found traces underground before, didn't we?"
"Could be two different bases, a clever rabbit has three burrows, there might be more, who knows." Trainee Warrior has ample experience.
"Thieves have multiple safe houses and hiding places for themselves and their loot, the Voodoo Gang shouldn't be much different."
"It's just a pity we don't have surveillance equipment, it would be easier if we could infiltrate a couple of moles."
Brother Ni: "You guys aren't like the cops in the movies, are you, with a bunch of undercover agents in the gangs moving up the ranks?"
Trainee Warrior shook his head: "Not that exaggerated, it takes over ten years to cultivate one undercover, and many go black all the way... undercover work isn't for humans."
Surveillance…
Lucy remembered.
Lin Miao had a very handy military-grade drone, and now the opponent is hiding in a building, the environment is suitable.
"I have a way, you guys retreat and standby."
Although Lin Miao currently had no conflict of interest with the Voodoo Gang, and it seemed unnecessary to fight at this moment.
But who talks chivalry with gangsters?
Let's all go together!
No matter the reason, no matter your sob story, when the blade comes down, don't regret it.
