The same confusion was caused by other colleagues around her.

The waiters were caught up in the carnage before they could even be evacuated.

When the power supply was restored, the other action teams and the command team placed outside rushed to the hall where they lost contact. What they saw was a Melissa who had gone mad.

Corpses and bloodstains covered the entire space.

Fortunately, the hotel they were in did not keep the stairs as the main way of passage, but was hidden behind the fire doors as an emergency exit.

After Melissa chopped down all the moving things she saw, she took the elevator to the first floor.

At this time, half an hour had passed since the accident happened.

She only had time to get out of the gate before she was surrounded by the violent terrorist mobile team.

Facts have proved that the power generated by this "runaway" is not endless.

Melissa felt that her nerves were becoming more and more dull, but she couldn't feel it at that time, and was directly caught by the team led by Master.

Due to the suddenness of the incident and the fact that the violent terrorist mobile team was the first to arrive at the scene.

Neither NCPD nor various media outlets were able to enter the scene.

Lazarus immediately blocked the entire hotel, cutting off all external investigations.

No one knows how those corpses and survivors were finally disposed of, but what is certain is that since then, these two small companies, with a total of more than 60 high-level personnel, have since disappeared from public view.

The organization that Melissa once worked for directly became an unknown department under Lazarus.

But these things, even Melissa, didn't know until a long time later.

Luo Qi was surprised by Melissa's "efficiency"——

Two hundred people, even two hundred pigs, are not so easy to get down.

But the truth is, humans may not fare as well as pigs when faced with such extreme chaos.

Among the nearly 200 people that night, there were only single-digit survivors, but most of them were not killed by Melissa.

The virus of Chaomeng equipment directly burned part of it to death, Melissa's colleagues directly dealt with part of it, and opened fire in the chaos leading to blind shooting and killed part of it.

But most of them are stampede to death in densely populated places.

Anyway, Melissa felt that if she "casually hit it three or two times" and used both guns and knives, those people would all lie down.

In retrospect, it seems that I was killed by myself, but in fact there were not many.

The ones she killed the most were not the men and women who started screaming "disturbingly" as soon as the power went out, but the people who took the elevator up to check the situation after the power was restored.

But one thing is true -

That was the night, and there were hardly any living people there.

But compared to the real tragedy that happened, Melissa was even more indignant that Master didn't talk about martial arts at all.

If it's her who just started to go berserk, the outcome is even more uncertain.

Moreover, Master was not always a front-line player. At that time, he already had the intention of retiring to the second-line, which was the last peak period.

As for now, apart from Luo Qi, Melissa is responsible for the combat effectiveness of the entire first team.

At least Melissa, who killed dozens of people, is an absolutely pure cyberpsychopath, and she can be recruited by the Terrorist Mobile Team. Luo Qi understands why people outside are so afraid of their names.

Although in the subsequent work, she saved countless times this number of people.

But in people's hearts, the violent terrorist mobile team will always be the terrifying place where murderous lunatics gather.

Looking at Melissa's expression, Luo Qi realized that he seemed to be the one who needed enlightenment.

After working in the Terrorist Mobile Squad for so many years, each team member has a very clear idea of ​​what they want to do.

Some people may really be atoning and repenting for their past crimes, while others may simply continue to enjoy violence and killing in another place.

But one thing is certain is that those who stay are ultimately contributing to the security of the city.

As for those rebellious guys...

They walked into this gate with the opportunity of being recruited, but they would not go out with a whole body of sin.

God will not forgive people, because Night City does not need God, here is another hell, everyone in it is redeeming themselves.

Before that, Luo Qi always thought that he was a villain.

But compared to Melissa, he is simply a three-good student of the new era, a representative of a moral model, and touched the top ten people of the year in Night City.

"A good man can't be a violent terrorist mobile team."

These are the exact words of Melissa.

Not only her, every seemingly normal person in the violent mobile team may have an outrageous past that Luo Qi can't guess even if he wants to break his head.

For example, Master used to work in NCPD, and he received many complaints, reports and even suspension because of law enforcement violations.

No one can bring the civilian casualty rate to the level of the violent terrorist mobile team in NCPD.

That kind of illegal torture to extract confessions and phishing law enforcement are basic operations.

This gave Luo Qi an inexplicable sense of intimacy——

After all, he and Master are both the kind of big villains who will kill criminals with one shot and then fabricate evidence of assaulting the police.

No evidence?

Then I'll make one for you, isn't that all there?

conviction?

No need to convict~ What kind of bicycle do you want~ How easy it is to collapse~

The similarities in operation and guiding ideology make Luo Qi feel as if he has found a bosom friend.

Just kidding, being a cop in Night City, keeping yourself safe and doing things well, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later.

It is pure nonsense to use those legal provisions that have not been updated for many years to restrain criminals.

Who doesn't know that the laws of Night City are like a sieve, full of loopholes from top to bottom.

For the same thing, if the police are tough, criminals will have nowhere to go.But if there is a high-level hard guard like Jerry Folt, that person may not even be called by the court.

As long as the laws of Night City are somewhat different, they will not want to "flexibly enforce the law".

It's hard to imagine that the first standard for the NCPD police before being appointed is to look at them.

Not only the boss’s wink, but also the nepotism of the government and the company’s crony winks. One bad thing is to step on someone’s red line again. A disciplinary action and goodbye to the bonus is considered a lenient punishment.

Stings had been drinking with Rocky in the safe house before, and complained bitterly about it.

He felt that he was so useless, he had been submissive for so many years, he had a police inspector's badge on his shoulder, and he had to be pissed off by those company dogs.

Not to mention those four former NCPD members of the shadow force.

The power is not as great as that of Stings, and any official with a half-job as big as a sesame mung bean, not even directly under their system, can dictate to small police officers like them at will.

But it still can't happen.

Who doesn't want to get nervous on whom?

Comparing his heart to heart, Luo Qi finally understood why the high-level bosses of the violent terrorist mobile team completely acquiesced to his operation of shadow troops and NCPD undercover operations——

The law can't control you, and I can't control you?

Serious people who should be a violent terrorist mobile team.

If it weren't for the uselessness of the NCPD, why would such people spend so much effort, first spending decades on combat effectiveness, and then spending decades on independence.

Moreover, in the chaotic period of 2045, the entire Night City didn't even have a mayor. After pulling it out, everyone could understand who was a mule and who was a horse.

After that, the independent status of the Supreme Armed Forces Tactical Department quickly provided a positive impact on personnel expansion and talent absorption.

Many of the new generation of operators joined in the next 30 years.

Some of them came from NCPD, some came from the big police departments in places like Los Angeles, New York or Chicago, and some came to Night City from the township branch.

There are also gunmen who have become monks, former mercenaries, security personnel or lone wolves with complicated stories.

But all in all, they went through a lot of screening, and finally became a member of the violent terrorist mobile team.

Of course, this is also one of the reasons why the number of the violent terrorist mobile team has not been able to increase.

If they insisted on the so-called "purity of blood" and only screened talents from within the police system, then the violent terrorist mobile team may still be the same team attached to the NCPD SWAT team, with only a dozen or twenty people.

There has never been any destiny in the world that should be born like this.

It doesn't even make sense to bear the responsibility of being a good person from the first second of life.

Moreover.

Even a good person can't be a good terrorist mobile team.

The reason why Luo Qi was favored was not only because of his combat effectiveness, but also because of his character, personality, and accomplishment.

No one lives in a black and white world, that's just a lie of the moralists.

But apart from themselves, there is no one to regulate and restrain, what is right and wrong for the violent terrorist mobile team.

Talking about jurisprudence and rationality is an absolute philosophical issue, and it is also a sociological issue of the unique ecological environment of Night City.

Everyone has their own interpretations and tirades on this topic, and they vary.

Therefore, the Terrorist Mobile Team chose to avoid discussing "rights" and pursue "responsibility".

This is the biggest difference that Luo Qi feels——

In direct contrast to the NCPD, the Supreme Force Tactics Department rarely, if ever, discusses the jurisdictional boundaries of its own authority.

They are constantly clarifying what their obligations are and what they should be responsible for.

Cyber ​​psychotic attack?

Violent terrorist activities?

Acts that seriously endanger social order and the personal and property safety of citizens?

It can be seen that from 2045 onwards, this range is constantly expanding.

Although the city council and companies have expressed the same concerns, and the discussion of the necessity of limiting the authority of the Supreme Force Tactics Department has never stopped, it is undeniable that this momentum has not been blocked.

The loss of power of the NCPD is almost inevitable in the evolution of the situation in Night City.

There is no doubt that this is inseparably related to the "Night City Police Department Restructuring Act" that was just passed this year.

Many people have said that the listing and shareholding of NCPD led to the deterioration of social security.

However, Luo Qi believed that it was the reason for the deterioration of social security, which prompted the listing and shareholding of NCPD.

This is a reverse causal relationship.

It must be admitted that Arasaka Corporation's control and influence over Night City has reached a level that is unacceptable to the new US government.

A system of compromise was born in such an environment.

That is the public police department system.

This is common or even standard in most cities in the United States.

But the public police department in Night City is a bit more special.

It needs to add a prefix attributive——

The Night City Police Department is an urban public police department based on political and business alliances that primarily serve Night City corporations and city councils.

They wrote this setting into the constitution of Night City in the form of a decree.

Therefore, maintaining urban law and order has never been the top priority of NCPD.

To put it bluntly, safeguarding the interests of their "master" is their lifeblood.

In this way, many things can be explained.

Many people don't understand why the NCPD and the Terrorist Mobile Team were clearly "family" before, and why both the hotline and the administrative system are completely like two different departments.

The fact is, because these two are really not a department.

Since the city government was completely shut down that year, the laws of Night City have become a reference point rather than an absolute standard.

For other countries and regions, if they want to change their nature, they must first amend their constitutions.

But Night City is different.
