At noon the next day, Sapphire Green Building, 99th floor casino club hall.
After a night of fighting and gunfights, the luxurious decorations in the hall have become dilapidated. Shell casings and bullet holes ejected from the gun can be seen everywhere. Glass fragments, broken bottles, explosion marks and scattered blood are everywhere.
The hall that was as gorgeous as a heavenly palace before was now as dilapidated as a piece of gorgeous cloth that had been shot to pieces by gunfire, leaving only traces of extreme violence.
Lin Mo walked leisurely in the hall, couldn't help but clicked his tongue, and recalled the battle that happened last night through the traces of the scene. He was thinking about the purpose of Miles, the mastermind behind the attack. What was the purpose of this raid?
But from last night to now, there are only a few answers left in his mind.
Sending so many elite agents disguised as gangsters just to disrupt the transaction and cooperation between Kangtao and Gou Zhen was completely meaningless to Xinmei and even military technology.
After all, once the two parties finalize their intentions regarding the deal between Kangtao and Gouzhen, the only remaining work will be trivial matters such as communication and negotiation.
Even if a negotiation is interrupted, Kangtao Company and Gouzhen can still find the right time and the right occasion to exchange cooperation matters.
The two major forces have finalized their intention to cooperate with each other. How can it be destroyed by a simple raid?
Therefore, the fundamental purpose of this attack should be to target someone at the scene.
Is it his elder sister Xu Wanxue or Colonel Hansen, the leader of Dog Town?
Lin Mo couldn't get an answer. He had already asked Lark before, but the other party's answer was that she had no idea. After all, she had lost most of her memory in the process when the black wall AI took over her body.
However, judging from the performance of the Black Wall AI at that time, the rampaging Black Wall AI would most likely kill all the enemies in the lobby. They had no intention of capturing anyone alive.
Therefore, Lin Mo is still more inclined to think that Miles wants to kill Hansen.
As long as he, the leader of Dog Town, dies, Dog Town will inevitably fall into a struggle for power succession, and the cooperation between Kangtao and Dog Town will inevitably be put on hold.
But in this case, what benefits can Xinmei gain from it?
"There's something fishy..." Lin Mo sighed quietly and simply stopped thinking about this problem.
"Lin Mo, are you still worried about something?" A gentle and familiar female voice suddenly came from his ears.
Turning his head, Lin Mo saw Sasha's concerned eyes. The blue color was as magnificent as cat's eye, and there seemed to be moist waves flowing in the eyes, which was really beautiful.
Behind her, Lucy, V, Mann, and Johnny Silverhand were all present at the same time. Even David, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was standing in front of a bar, looking at the scattered and tattered wine on the wine cabinet. bottle.
"It's okay, I'm just thinking about something irrelevant..." Lin Mo shook his head with a smile, turned to look at the other people, and asked with a smile:
"Well, what happened here last night? You have all seen the surveillance video, right? Are you still sure about the strength of those gunmen?"
Sasha and Lucy blinked at the same time, and immediately realized that Lin Mo was not asking about them, but the other people who were not there last night.
They looked behind them, and sure enough, Mann and David were both lost in thought, seeming to be organizing sentences to answer Lin Mo's questions.
After analyzing the performance of the gunmen who attacked last night, Mann calmly made a judgment:
"It's a bit tricky, but it's not too much to deal with... Those guys have a very high level of fighting skills, much higher than the gang members I met in the city, and even much better than ordinary company security guards. There aren't many of them. Fortunately, our team can still handle it, but when the number increases... it will be difficult to handle."
At this time, David also came over, looked at the remaining bullet marks and blasting embers at the scene, and said very objectively:
"I agree with Brother Mann. If the number of gunmen is twice that of our team members, unless we set up an ambush in advance, it will be difficult for us to annihilate them all... If the number of gunmen is three times that of ours, then we I can only fight and run away at the same time.”
Lin Mo nodded repeatedly, confirming their answers.
He looked with satisfaction at the burly Mann and David, who was not inferior to Mann in terms of size, and praised:
"You two are quite humble. I thought Mann you would exaggerate just to save your face. And David, you haven't developed the bad habit of being conceited, which is good."
Mann twitched the corner of his mouth. Although he was praised by Lin Mo, he was also praised by a junior who was much younger than him. Besides, he was still Lin Mo's senior in the past, so he would not be happy about it. mood.
For David, Lin Mo's praise was very helpful to him. The curve of the corner of his mouth could hardly be concealed:
"It's just a little analysis, nothing."
"Okay, okay, stop fucking around here and keep talking about these useless things. Lin Mo, please tell me why you called us here. It's early this morning. You just informed us to come to Dog Town and ruined our vacation." Mann said with displeasure.
Seeing Mann still looking so carefree, Lin Mo felt even more cordial and couldn't help but smile and asked:
"Oh? Are you still on vacation today?"
Before Mann could continue speaking, David stretched out his hand to interrupt his speech, as if he didn't want his big brother to continue yelling at Lin Mo.
David smiled and replied:
"We just completed a commission given by Brother Jack yesterday, so we thought about taking a few days' rest as usual. When a gun battle broke out here last night, we were all resting in the Afterlife Bar."
"Then your vacation is over before it even begins." Lin Mo showed a smirk on his lips, clapped his hands as if to celebrate the "misfortune" of David and others, and his tone became cheerful:
"You and Mann may be busy in the next period of time."
"Do you have a commission for us to handle?" David raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Mo in surprise.
You must know that since Lin Mo returned to Night City, he has rarely personally appointed people like them to handle things.
Most of the commissions they received came from Jack or Kitagawa Hiroshi.
And now Lin Mo actually assigned them a rare mission, which really surprised David.
"Well, there will indeed be some troubles that need your help in the coming period. As for the details of the mission... let me give it a try and let you know later." Lin Mo said with a smile.
"How long do you have to wait? This place is in tatters. I feel dirty just standing here." Mann looked at the messy scene around him with disgust.
Lin Mo didn't speak, but calmly looked at the large floor-to-ceiling windows at the end of the hall.
Through the window, he could see a small gray-black dot passing through the blue sky above Night City, so tiny that it was almost imperceptible with the naked eye at the end of his field of vision.
"What a coincidence...has it arrived at this time?" Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh. His excellent eyesight allowed him to clearly see the general outline of the black spot.
"Is that a plane?" David followed his eyes and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window.
The rest of the people in the hall also subconsciously looked out the window.
Under everyone's attention, the black spot gradually flew into the airspace of Night City until a long object with white smoke shot towards the sky.
He really didn't even bother to pretend... Lin Mo watched in amusement as the anti-air missile made several turns and finally accurately hit Kongtian No. 1, which was flying at high altitude.
boom!
Even though they were far away, everyone still heard a small burst of explosions.
Except for Lin Mo, everyone in the hall rushed to the floor-to-ceiling windows in unison to get a better observation perspective.
They stared intently at the plane that fell from high altitude. The huge high-altitude object fell straight towards Dog Town.
