Roger interrupted his movement and handed him a chip backhand.

"The target is very likely to be in this warehouse. Of course, it does not necessarily guarantee a [-]% possibility."

As a satellite bird's-eye view popped up on the screen, Rogge began to introduce.

"This is a nearby surveillance picture, but I couldn't capture the key places, so I got the fire evacuation map of this place."

Rogge operated his PDA and retrieved files one by one.

"My god, how much do I have to pay you for this?"

Luo Qi felt that he might be going bankrupt.

And Rogge just smiled mysteriously, then shook his head slightly: "I don't want your money, as long as you get the contents inside for me."

"What is so valuable?"

Luo Qi raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

This commission does not seem to be simple.

"If I cut off their arsenal, I'd better hire someone else."

Stealing weapons from a warehouse at a military base controlled by military tech, he promises he'll be blown to pieces by rockets fired from turrets before he even gets out of his car.

The administrative division and geographical distribution of Night City have undergone many changes.

From construction in 1994, to the fourth corporate war in the 2020s, to the Great Reconstruction period in 2045, and now to 2077.

Watson District is located in an area originally known as the military city of North Oak (North Oak), including some areas of neighboring Westbrook.But that was a few decades ago, and the so-called Westbrook and North Oak areas have changed a lot since then.

Most importantly, due to the nuclear explosion in 2023, not only the administrative divisions, but even the terrain have undergone a huge shift.

In the year 2045 of the Great Rebuild, the renamed Watson District became a developing area where large buildings and eco-structures were built to house thousands of homeless people from the Fourth Corporate War.Many Asians from Night City moved to the Watson District, commonly known as the Kabuki District and Little Chinatown, including residents of Old Japantown.

There is a monorail named NC-ART (Night City Urban Rapid Transit), which forms a loop around the surrounding area.It straddles the regions called "Administrative Region", "Little Europe" and "Development Zone" in the past, and these regions are now scattered in several administrative divisions to the north.

The so-called "NorCal Military Base" was just to the north of the then "Watson Development Zone", which is now near the North City Industrial Zone.

Some old local residents are still used to calling the current area by the old name.

The "Old Chinatown" and "Old Japan Street" at that time belonged to the present-day Heywood area.

Due to the development plan of Watson District, a large number of Asian immigrants came here in the middle and late 2040s, thus becoming a new densely populated area.

As for law and order... that's another embarrassing topic.

The Meiquan District of Heywood also has the city center, which used to be called "South Night City (South Night City)" and is connected to the "University District (University District)" to the north. Now it belongs to the middle-class and rich people with good economic and public security conditions. district.

Night City University, formerly known as Richard Knight University, was later renamed as the city changed its name, but people still remember the great founder of Night City.

Luo Qi had also been there before, looking at the only university still in operation in the city and its students, silently envious.

He misses the old days, but he knows that this university is not the pure university he once studied, but a base for capital to train its future employees.

What this university is full of is not knowledge, but how to occupy the high ground of technological monopoly from the perspective of the company.

Once the flavor changes, this place is no different from the prosthetic body laboratory that once transformed Suzi, and it is just a technology center for the company to occupy the world.

So he left here in the end, without taking any nostalgia and regrets with him.

The same is true of the Northern California military base owned by Military Technology.

They used to have an office center here, and the focus has all shifted here——

After the Arasaka Tower nuclear explosion, the entire building in the company square was rotten, even though the nuclear explosion was at an altitude of 1200 feet (365.76 meters).

You can still see a lot of military technology activities in the north of Night City. After all, the buildings and equipment decades ago are not unusable.

This is also the reason why Rogge is confident about this. After all, the supervision of military technology here is not as strong as before.

To the west is the Arasaka Beach, to the north is the old military base, and even if the crime rate in Watson District is high, it will not be able to shake the sky.

In the suburbs outside the city in the northeast, there is even an airport that can take off and land military transport planes.

Although the risk factor of this task is not low, it is not too difficult to fish in troubled waters with the addition of the poor security environment in Watson District.

In the Watson Development Zone, the city government once planned to build a large enterprise center here, which is not far from the city center.

For a while it prospered here.

People can see various nightclubs, skyscrapers, corporate office buildings, high-end medical centers, and even the largest black market in Night City here.

Many Japanese companies, especially Arasaka's rivals, have invested billions of euros in the region to compete with the capital giant Arasaka.

Everything changed after the War of Unification, when Lucius Lane asked Arasaka for help during the war, Arasaka became the master of the city again.

It killed many companies and changed Watson District forever.

Without a stable financial anchor, the glory days of Watson District are over – the industrial north of the city, once a cutting-edge tech park, no longer provides jobs and leaves workers on the streets.

Arasaka took advantage of this economic vacuum period, slurped up profits, and ate a lot.

And it finally got the seaside port it always wanted.

There is a super aircraft carrier parked there, which can attack the military technology and NUSA troops in the entire California at any time.

In 2077, Watson finally became a sad and hopeless place.

Just like when V and Luo Qi came to this city, they saw endless poverty and crime.

If it wasn't for this reason, they would not still choose to steal relic knowing that it was dangerous.

Even today, their safe house still chooses to hide in Watson District.

Because there is a natural crime protection shield here.

Watson District is also known as one of the poorest areas in Night City.Many of the industrial plants and factories in the northern industrial area have been completely abandoned for only a few years, and they are home to a large number of homeless people and gangsters (especially the Maelstrom), as well as the black market that people love to see.

So this place has also become a main battlefield for the Maelstrom Gang and the Tiger Claw Gang.

However, for ordinary people who have nowhere to go, the abandoned working-class apartment buildings, under the protection and spontaneous renovation of gangsters, are still passable, and they can be regarded as a good place for some people who cannot even afford to live in "skyscraper slums".

The famous "Totentanz" bar is here.

Luo Qi had also been there, but he didn't like the neurotic atmosphere there, so after killing the entrusted target with a knife, he went straight home to wash and sleep.

Compared with the Maelstrom Gang, the Tiger Claw Gang is less neurotic and more hooligan.

Small Chinatown and the Kabuki district are their main areas of activity.

It used to be an extension of the city center - a high-density urban area with skyscrapers, so bustling and rundown, dirty and gorgeous, there is an indescribable and wonderful intertwining here.

Also here is the old medical center, which used to be the best place in all of Night City to legally spend money on body enhancements.

But looking at the present, Lao Wei is very clear about this, the garbage second-hand cyber prosthetic body market in the Kabuki district is the mainstream today.

Even the NCPD would have a headache if it drilled so deep into an area like this.

Because here, only local gangs and street thugs known as "rats" can find the shortest and correct way without breaking into the dead end.

"I've already arranged the retreat route, two cars, after you get the things, try not to get your tail bitten, and then they will take you for a drive, and finally come back to me."

Rogge's arrangement is very sophisticated, especially the drivers under him, all of whom are veterans who drive vans in small alleys to "catch shrimp" or "khaki get out of the way", with first-class skills in shaking off their tails.

"I see, what do you want?"

Luo Qi nodded, indicating that he understood.

"It's what the customer wants, and I'm not too sure about it," Rogge said, "But what is certain is that the target is an explosion-proof suitcase, which contains classified weapon technology, and is transported to a military base for finalization testing."

For the middleman, he must know the background of the entrustment he transferred, otherwise, he would kill the mercenary who accepted the task, and at the same time recruit himself.

But it is not necessary to be completely clear, after all, customers sometimes need a little bit of their own personal space and privacy.

"I said, so generous, I'm afraid it wasn't sent by other companies."

Luo Qi suddenly realized.

Not only did Rogge not want his money, but he also gave him a month's rent in the safe house bar, and even a large reward.

There is only one reason for this, and that is that the client is too generous.

The reason why Luo Qi decided to do it was that there was a high possibility that something related to "Rockman Technology" was stored in that warehouse.

Military technology is the only one who knows, and Luo Qi wants to find out the secrets of himself, so he has to try himself.

"Although saying this does not conform to the status of an intermediary, I still want to tell you."

Rogge looked at him, "Priority is looking for your things. As for the client, it doesn't matter if you fail. Your life is more important."

There is no 100% successful task in the world, even if it fails, the customer has nothing to say.

The commercial spies who die violently every year can pile up into mountains, and disappear quietly under the hands of the other company.

But as long as it succeeds once, it will be able to fight against competitors and at the same time obtain huge benefits for its own company.

"I see, thank you." Luo Qi stood up and nodded slightly.

"Thank you, I'll accept it, get out."

Roger nodded generously, then kicked him out.

He said it was a kick, but he actually lifted his leg.

"Tomorrow's star, I am optimistic about you."

Claire laughed as she wiped her glass behind the bar.

"Don't set a flag for me, thank you." Luo Qi rolled his eyes and ordered two glasses of juice.

Pure fruit juice is not a child's drink in the afterlife, and it is much more expensive than a cocktail.

"Speaking of which, how do you drive? I need a driver, and you might be willing to take this job."

"Ta...ta...ta..."

There were footsteps outside the room.

Luo Qi is sure that he has never hated a slow-paced person so much in his life.

If possible, he just wants to rush out now, and then press the back of that person's head, smash his head on the fence, and kick him out from the third floor.

But he is currently trapped by patrolling soldiers everywhere.

Northeast of the North City Industrial Zone, the old Northern California military base, the old military industrial center of Night City, where military technology is used.

Luo Qi curled up his legs, hugged his knees, and huddled in a tin box.

It is definitely not a good experience to stay with the equipment in the computer room in a small and cramped space that is less than half a square meter and just fits the knees.

Especially when I have to carry a samurai sword and a silenced pistol.

Noise-cancelling weapons are definitely not as silent as they are shown in film and television entertainment works, and it is completely nonsense that the enemy a few meters away is deaf.

The purpose of the silencer is to keep the fighting taking place in a small area, and to avoid exposing the clear position of your own troops as much as possible.

It can be heard clearly within at least 50 meters.

Only a silencer pistol of this nature, using subsonic bullets and an extremely cumbersome super-long barrel, can reduce the sound to an acceptable range.

A silenced pistol that is almost as big as an Ajax assault rifle. With Luo Qi's marksmanship and the accuracy of this gun, if you want to headshot, you can guarantee a range of ten meters at most. Let it go.

If one misses the target and hits some iron sheet, it will be like an alarm for everyone on the other side.

Luo Qi has never felt that the samurai sword is so important.

"squeak--"

Just as he was trying to listen to the movement outside, the cabinet door beside him opened.

Luo Qi turned his head slowly, and saw a brother mechanic who was looking at him.
