Anyone who attacks the caravan will become an enemy of District 17.
Song Lan was so full of energy when he said this that Lu Xiang once had the idea of setting up an "outside" crime investigation section, with Song Lan serving as the chief of this new section.
But currently Comrade Song Lan is already the section chief of two departments, and he usually has a lot of work on hand.
Out of distress, Lu Xiang did not express his thoughts.
"I will think about it."
Even if this plan is really to be implemented, it will have to be after the election campaign is completed.
It is still unknown whether Aureliano can successfully become mayor. Although his support rate is far ahead and he no longer has the biggest obstacle of the Foster family, his speech during the campaign has seriously touched the interests of big companies. .
Lu Xiang took some time to watch several videos of the other party's speeches. In addition to taking back control of border trade lines, he also prepared a series of policies, such as increasing corporate taxes, banning the use of bionic humans to replace labor, and strictly regulating all aspects of the process. Business hours.
Along with lowering bank tax rates and wage tax rates, this part of the money will be filled by businesses.
While he won the support of the people, he also became a thorn in the side of big companies. Lu Xiang is sure that more than 90% of the big companies in the 17th District want Aureliano to die on the streets the next day.
If he cannot be prevented from taking office through political means, big companies may take other actions.
According to data, after 2155, a total of 19 candidates for mayor of the coalition government were killed by gunfire. The reason why there have been no such incidents in the 17th District is because every mayor needs to go through Foster before taking office. The family nodded in agreement, and the interests between the Fords and big business were aligned.
If this momentum continues, Aureliano is likely to become the 20th mayoral candidate to be killed by gunfire.
It is obvious that he himself does not take this matter to heart. He gives more than three speeches almost every week in the downtown area of the 17th arrondissement. There are no decent security measures at the speech site, and most of the bodyguards at the public opinion meeting are Community security guards without professional training are almost negligible in the face of real professional killers.
Speaking of professional killers, Lu Xiang felt that Song Lan had saved the other person's life in disguise.
If Dorago Saffron hadn't died in his hands, I'm afraid those big companies would have paid for Aureliano's head.
Facts once again confirmed Lu Xiang's premonition.
Three days later, an anonymous email from "the outside world" appeared in her inbox.
The email stated that an experienced assassination team had sneaked into District 17, and their target for this trip was the popular mayoral candidate.
The large companies in District 17 spent a lot of money to hire the most professional manpower from the "outside world".
That morning, the law enforcement department held an emergency meeting.
"Black Hand"
An unfamiliar name appeared on the holographic projection.
If the anonymous intelligence was accurate, they would be facing an extremely professional killer organization.
"This organization is active in the 'outside world'. It has a total of five people, including snipers, blasters, firepower, hackers, and a master of disguise. The staff is very comprehensive. It once planned the assassination of seven political figures in a neutral country. It is the thirteenth A wanted criminal in a neutral country."
All the section chiefs in the conference room looked solemn, including Song Lan.
Before he could even take a vacation, a team of five professional killers sneaked into District 17.
The criminals in this "outside world" are each more terrifying than the last, which really makes it difficult to sleep well.
As active participants in the meeting, Captain Doug and Chief Snake were the first to enter the state, and they immediately entered the discussion state.
“Weekend lecture in a downtown location.”
After a while, they came to the same conclusion, "If you want to take action, that is undoubtedly the best place."
Before each speech to canvass votes, the public opinion meeting will print posters in advance and post them in subway stations and other traffic arteries. The specific time and location are printed on the posters.
"The terrain of the trouble area is extremely complex. The location of the speech was exposed to at least dozens of sniper points. It was impossible for us to inspect every building during the speech."
Doug's head was getting big. If he were put in the perspective of a professional killer, he would at least be able to think of hundreds of ways to safely evacuate after assassinating Aureliano.
He felt that given the way the other party spoke, it was a miracle that he was still alive today.
In fact, if law enforcement had not intervened, there would have been no need for professional killers. A few thugs with guns suddenly appeared from the crowd and could have killed the mayoral candidate.
The main reason why Aureliano is still alive is that the situation in District 17 was still unclear, and a series of major events prevented big companies from taking the time to deal with him.
“Is there any way to cancel, postpone, or change the location of the speech?”
Snake asked.
This is no longer just a matter of Aureliano's life safety. It is foreseeable that during the speech, a large number of citizens will gather in the downtown square, and the composition of the "Black Hand" includes blasters. If He installed bombs near the square in advance, which may cause hundreds of casualties.
They don't have any expectations for the "outside" killer's bottom line, because for the killer, the more the scene becomes, the more conducive it is for them to retreat.
So rather than protecting the safety of the speaker, the best thing to do is cancel the speech.
"You can communicate, but it doesn't completely solve the problem."
Lu Xiang said, "As long as Aureliano still needs to give a speech, he will be exposed to their sight sooner or later."
This is the most difficult thing about professional killers. You never know where they are before they take action. Even if a speech is canceled, they just lose an opportunity.
The only way to completely solve the problem is to find these five people.
"I went to discuss with him the issue of changing the venue for the speech. In the past few days, you should increase patrols in the downtown area and try to find some clues when they visit. But you need to be careful not to exchange fire with them when you are not sure. .”
"receive!"
After the meeting, the section chiefs immediately returned to their respective jobs.
"Chief Song, please stay here for a while."
Mixing in the crowd and preparing to return to work with everyone, Song Lan shivered and had to turn around and smile at Lu Xiang.
"Director Lu, what's going on?"
"I have been looking forward to your comments at today's work meeting."
Lu Xiang crossed his arms across his chest and said, "What do you think about the killer?"
"I think Director Lu has arranged everything properly and clearly understands everything. There is nothing more that needs to be added."
"real?"
"Absolutely true."
"Then... what if I promise to give you a week's leave after catching them?"
"I think it wouldn't be a bad thing to discuss this issue appropriately."
