"Wendy, how are the two little guys doing?"
"I just finished the surgery. Dr. Ain said that as long as I don't come into contact with sources of pollution again, I'll be fine."
"That's good. Did she talk about the side effects after the surgery?"
"It was also mentioned that there may be side effects such as numbness of the limbs, difficulty in moving the limbs, inflexibility of the limbs, and ataxia."
Most of the next sentence was basically what Wendy said to what was written in the medical record, but it seemed that there wouldn't be too serious side effects.
"By the way, today I was robbed by a gang called Legion."
"Robbed? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. It's more like a forced sale than a robbery. The style of doing things is obviously very similar to that of a gang, but the way of doing things is completely different. I don't know how such a person can appear in the syndicate."
The two of them chatted like this, and Kyle, who was robbed on the way home, also relaxed. Although he was not the final winner this time, he still received a lot of compensation. The extra Blue Fatty can be used as a backup, and the money can be used to hire three people from Baiji to do more things.
Recently, I have to dig out some of Wendy's deceased family members from the Rusty River, otherwise they might be poached by people from the Blackwater Association. When the three of them were taken out of the clinic later, Ricardo from the Gonzalez family would probably be waiting outside, and he would have to ask them for a favor at that time.
After digging out a pile of rubbish from the ruins of the research institute where Denhil was hiding, Kyle returned to the FAC team. As soon as I walked in, I saw Lao Qi, who was about to scratch his head. He was smoking a cigarette and worrying about the lists.
"Captain, how is the team's recruitment work going?"
"It's not going well. Not everyone has the courage to come to the Syndicate in advance like you. Also, fewer and fewer people from Xincheng are willing to be transferred to the Syndicate, so now our team only has six people including you and me. .Although I will definitely be criticized by my superiors, at least I can perform tasks. If I don’t perform tasks again, my salary for this month will probably be deducted.”
Lao Qi is obviously still a little uncomfortable with it. The person who called him Uncle Qi a few days ago has now become the vice-captain. This makes him want to regret it, but thinking that if he regrets it, Kyle will probably not do it at all. Don't hesitate to join the elite team.
So this time, Lao Qi, who was bleeding heavily, could only obediently give Kyle the reward he deserved, and used his connections to make him the vice-captain of this rapid response team.
"That's it - after all, what do we do at FAC? My first task when I first arrived was to deliver express delivery to the big shots in the new city, and then went to work as a supervisor next to a pile of ruins. These should not be the daily routine of FAC members."
"Of course not! Our responsibilities are complementary to those of the Public Security Bureau. The Public Security Bureau specializes in tracking down ordinary criminals, and we specialize in tracking down crazy criminals and incarcerated people. However, the Public Security Bureau in Syndicate is attacked by gangs every day, and basically there is no one to do it. Survive. Because we here will not intervene in gang conflicts and only deal with large-scale disasters and arrest incarcerated people, gangs will not mess with us for nothing."
"But there are a lot of madmen in the Syndicate, and there are even a lot of incarcerated people. We simply don't have enough manpower."
Lao Qi got angry when he heard this. It was because of the serious shortage of manpower that he had to bleed heavily to retain a good subordinate.
"FAC will only spend funds on elite teams. The top management doesn't care about us cannon fodder who only play a role in investigation, so our bottom team members have always been short of manpower! We have been mentioning it for several years and there is no improvement at all! *Civilizedis* is really convinced!"
Well, Kyle now understands the dissatisfaction of the lower-level FAC players with the higher-ups, but the job is still a job, and Kyle will not leave until he finds a better place to go.
"But Captain, for the sake of our salary and position, where will we cannon fodder go on missions now?"
"Damn, that's right, now you finally start to do the work that truly belongs to FAC."
Lao Qi put out his cigarette, took the coat from the hanger, and went to the dormitory where the team members were staying with Kyle.
"Two days ago, a murder occurred on Fishbone Street. Originally, the death of a gangster had nothing to do with us, but this gangster was still a coward and installed a household M-value detector in his home. Just when he was shot in the head with a pistol, his M value detector quickly reached 600, and the alarm system that came with the instrument notified FAC of the corresponding situation."
Kyle nodded, thinking that it finally seemed like what a FAC member should do.
"Then the person who killed this gangster should be an incarcerated person. What we have to do is track this incarcerated person and then notify the elite team to catch her, right?"
"That's right, our rapid response team is here to track down the whereabouts of these monsters. Dangerous matters such as arresting people and fighting should be left to the elite team!"
Lao Qi serves as the captain, and Kyle serves as the vice-captain. They only take four ordinary team members on a mission. This shabby team configuration once again refreshed Kyle's impression of FAC. However, in the case of poor competition, FAC will naturally compare even with its own team. The Public Security Bureau, where you can't even go out through the front door, is much better.
After arriving at Fishbone Street where the crime was found, all the children on Fishbone Street looked at the six FAC members eagerly. For these children who had no fun, seeing these strangers in uniforms could Let them start imagining a full day of adventure.
What made Kyle even more speechless was that while walking on this street, there were actually two carnivorous gangsters saying hello to Lao Qi, asking when they would go to Yagyu's place for a few drinks by the way. Play chess. It can be seen from both words that they are fair-weather friends. This wave, this wave is called police-civilian cooperation, and they are very close.
"Captain, don't the Carnivores know the identity of the murderer?"
"Yeah, they don't know either. I asked about it on the phone first, but judging from the testimonies they got during the interview, they only know that the murderer is most likely a short woman. As for the motive, no one can tell clearly. There is no such thing as surveillance in a complex like the Syndicate."
In what age are you still doing traditional reasoning? However, the current situation is indeed a blur, and we can only rely on sporadic on-site clues to deduce where the incarcerated person has gone.
It's really a big head-scratcher, and I guess Conan will have to scratch his head when he comes.
