Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

Now his girlfriend's condition is recovering well, at least she didn't lose her life, and according to Jack, Gustavo has been sending people to try to communicate with his "father-in-law", but due to the intensification of the gang war, it seems that he has not been able to negotiated.

Then there was Jack himself.

In Heywood, Jack and his mother knew people... huh, maybe more than Rocky knew in Night City.

He is an out-and-out native of Night City. Although the combat effectiveness of the people he knows may not be very good, there are quite a few of them.

The Valentino gang also suffered a lot from the Voodoo gang, and as their area of ​​activity spread, their sense of protection for the territory also aroused their desire to fight.

"Valentino Gang... If everything you say is reliable, it sounds okay."

As Luo Qi's partner, Logan needs to know this kind of information.

You can't let two rivals cooperate with you at the same time, it's not for cooperation, it's just for trouble.

"There is also the direction of Taipingzhou."

Luo Qi pointed to the old place.

The West Wind Manor in Taipingzhou should have been developed into a luxurious, high-end, beautiful, and elegant rich area that Luo Qi couldn't even afford.

"Maybe you know some people there, and it's best to help me match up. I believe they may be interested in the territory abandoned by the Voodoo Gang and the place where their control ability has declined?"

Rocky asked.

"That must be of interest."

Logan answered for someone he knew.

"Well, but... actually... it's not that convenient..."

"Any questions?"

Seeing his faltering, Luo Qi asked suspiciously.

"Actually, it's not a problem. It's just that I and their boss are a little...hard to say."

Logan was extremely awkward, "Well, we actually had sex before."

You are also a philosopher! ?

This idea popped into Luo Qi's head immediately.

Then I quickly realized that I seemed to be thinking about it.

Who said that the Animal Gang can't have a female boss?

"Hey, that's your business."

Luo Qi smiled and said, "But don't force it. If it doesn't work, it's okay for us to find another person, even if you don't know him well."

The hatred between the animal gang and the voodoo gang has reached the stage of "the enemy of the enemy is a friend".

They will not refuse Luo Qi's cooperation.

Chapter 440 Three True Philosophy

The preliminary preparations for each thing to do are actually not simple.

Compared to the briskness of when things are going according to plan, this kind of work always feels... less exciting.

But Jack was right.

What kind of commission, what kind of middleman, if you want to make a profit, you will have to do it yourself one day.

In fact, Luo Qi was not a mercenary in the traditional sense from the beginning.

He neither forms a team to pick up jobs everywhere, nor is he independent like other lone wolves.

The intermediary is both his contact and his partner.

At the same time, the position of the violent terrorist mobile team and the relationship with NCPD made him more different from those street sneakers.

The people I know are spread across various industries, some legal and some illegal.

What Jack and V dreamed of, in fact, Luo Qi has been working hard.

You can't work hard for so many years, go through life and death, and finally don't even have a capital of your own, and you are all doing errands for others.

So in many cases, whether it is dealing with the voodoo gang, or fighting against Arasaka or military technology, it is not just out of a certain aspect.

In his prediction, Kang Tao was actually a very good partner when dealing with the Voodoo Gang.

The long-term peace and stability of Taipingzhou is also good for their development. Coupled with the preferential policies given by the market government, if they have the ability to take the land from the Voodoo Gang, they might really be able to make these lands their own.

But it is a pity that NC Kangtao is not a good thing.

If they really cooperate, whoever bites the other may not be sure.

So the paper data is only theoretical after all, and it really operates according to an idealized model. Every minute is either killing yourself or killing your brother.

There is no one above Luo Qi's head, and there is no team leader to be responsible for these things, so that he can fish from behind with peace of mind.

Because he is the core that organizes it all.

The matter of Taipingzhou is multi-party talks. Although the several forces are not of the same mind, there is no room for betrayal and repetition in dealing with the Voodoo Gang.

So they only need to focus on how to find and destroy these cyber ghosts.

But the shit about the city government and NCPD.

There are only two direct participants.

Rocky, and River.

This matter looks very strange from the perspective of an outsider——

A violent terrorist mobile team, in a newly promoted policeman.

How dare you go against a police commissioner like Jerry Folt and a police chief like Coleridge?He even dared to get involved in such a big event as the bizarre death of the former mayor.

This is not reasonable.

But for Rocky and River...

There is no need for a reason.

If Night City was a purely American city, and the Terrorist Mobile Team was just an ordinary thug raised by the NCPD, then he wouldn't have such a sense of justice and honor.

Most of the goals are to develop into a black and white cross-border boss in the police system.

But Night City is different. Those Anglo-Saxons who immigrated during the development of the American continent in the early years, their influence as early as Kennedy's administration, has been disintegrated by foreigners and foreign cultures.

So rather than saying that the United States is the spiritual continuation of Europe, it is better to say that they are the magical product of the alienation and development of capitalism on people and society.

Night City is even more fucking amazing.

Especially by 2077, the panic and rejection of immigrants in the early years had no room for survival.

Because the entire American society and land have become a melting pot of mess.

Even black Haitians can take root in Night City and reproduce a huge Haitian community that cannot be eradicated.

In addition, Night City was an independent free city fully recognized by the New United States during the Unification War.

It is not unreasonable to say that Night City is an independent country——

After all, the vast majority of third world countries in the world, including all kinds of government forces, rebels, and warlords, all the military forces in the country combined cannot compare with Night City.

GDP is even a gap of a few zeros.

Even if this stuff has nothing to do with the people.

but.

Instead of putting gold on your face, say that this is a prosperous city on the west coast of the United States.It is better to say that this is the meeting place of all nationalities and cultures in the world...

But it's an out-and-out piece of shit.

But in this shit, there's still some leftover gold to be found—

The more filthy and filthy the environment, the more the remaining light of humanity shines.

What a philosophy.

Sometimes Night City makes you want to burn it to ashes, but other times, you just want to do something about it.

For example, NCPD is a shitty thing.

After getting Suzi, meeting Melissa, and making a lot of reliable brothers and friends.

Night City has become Rocky's home, at least for this life.

However, NCPD, as the theoretical guardian of the city, has fallen so thoroughly, which makes him feel that there is a big problem——

Who likes living in a city full of bullets and violent crime?Even if you backhand can kill these ghosts and ghosts?

Wouldn't it be more pleasant to wear pajamas, step on slippers, and go downstairs to buy soybean milk and fried dough sticks in the early morning?

Luo Qi was simply annoyed at those idiots.

River is more influenced by the sense of justice.

But their purpose is the same, that is to fulfill their duties as police officers.

It's no wonder that the Sixth Street Gang is so hated by the NCPD. It's people like them who use the banner of justice all day long to make the already precarious justice even more worthless.

Some cops are bad, but they're not stupid.

The vast majority of people are well aware of what kind of social environment is most beneficial to common people.

But the vast majority of people choose the path that is most beneficial to them.

What a philosophy.

The waiting time was a bit long, so that Luo Qi was in a daze for so long that he began to feel his life.

Regarding Jerry Folt and Coleridge, there are still some deviations in the plan of Rocky and River——

River thinks, just follow the investigation process, pull out all the bad things they did, and hang them on the execution platform.

But Luo Qi felt that if he wanted to bring them down, he had better follow through to the end.

The result of directly stabbing up was being stopped by the Department of Internal Affairs.

One second he may still be a hero of the people, the next second he will be branded as a groundless hat, and then he will say goodbye to NCPD.

River thinks Rocky is backing off, but in fact Rocky doesn't—

He just wanted to add more power to this matter.

It's not the kind of business where one hammer goes to the other and one hammer goes to the west, but a big move that can change the situation with one hammer.

For example, further weaken the status and power of NCPD, and split it into several departments with different or same functions.

Looking at the new United States, there are quite a few departments that are called "police" functions in popular terms.

This actually fits a kind of "decentralization" idea.

In fact, it is relatively rare for a situation like NCPD to concentrate all powers in one person.

The acquisition of Night City's status as a free city has directly upgraded it from a city under the state to a status of an independent country in a sense.

But at the same time, as the public security department within the city, the scope of power of the NCPD has also expanded accordingly.

To put it simply, there are no state police, county police, or federal police on top.Decentralize them with departments like the Drug Enforcement Administration and the FBI.

Except for an independent Supreme Force Tactics Department, NCPD can be said to have taken control of the entire city, except for the company's troops, all official military forces.

And such a department has been corporatized.

This seemingly inconspicuous move by the companies is actually taking advantage of changes in the situation to peacefully evolve power.

Compared with before, Night City now is more at the company's discretion.

This is change.

Even if Luo Qi can't understand it, can River, an old policeman who has been working for so many years, not understand it?

Therefore, what Jerry Folt, Coleridge, and Wilton Holt did was actually a kind of desecration of the sacred vocation in his eyes.

It's not that whoever is superior is the authority.

The authority of the law enforcement agency, which should have been implemented and upheld by all those who wear this uniform, has long been trampled into the mud by the company and its dog legs.

The more people mess things up, the more complicated they become, and the more complicated people are, the more confusing things become.
