Chapter 310 Chapter 307 The Knot in My Heart Has Not Been Resolved

After carefully leaving the core territory of the Blood Bat Gang and hailing a taxi on the road, Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao headed towards the music restaurant. On the way, the originally silent taxi driver was aroused by the news on the radio and began to talk to Zhuang Xuteng about the chaotic experience of his day, which actually let the two of them know a lot about the situation.

It turned out that there were not only two bombs in the laundry last night, but four others were detonated in four other different areas of Peicheng at a later time - no one would believe that this was just a general accident caused by aging equipment. In particular, the news linked these bombings to the Gardeners organization, which had not been seen for a long time, reminding citizens again of the story of the TV station collapse, and a panic quickly spread.

The riot squad and PCPD had to take action and work with far greater energy than usual. Even if Peicheng was turned upside down, they still had to find the murderer and give an explanation to the people of the city. A series of searches and censorship operations began, and the entire city became panicked. The taxi driver spent the whole day dealing with random traffic blockades and annoying street checks, making little money.

The news in the car said again, "The PCPD and the riot squad attacked separately and destroyed 20 terrorist dens in one fell swoop..." The driver didn't believe it at all. He believes that if there are so many dens in Peicheng, it can only mean that the PCPD is a waste; being able to destroy so many dens in one day can only mean that the PCPD has done nothing in the past and is a big waste; if a den is destroyed, it should be reported immediately , thinking that this can make everyone believe in the efforts of the PCPD, indicating that the PCPD is a waste among wastes and is hopeless.

Zhuang Xuteng deeply agrees. He believes that the rampant gangs in Peicheng and the disasters suffered by citizens are closely related to the incompetence of the PCPD. Even the existence of the mercenary profession should be a shame to the PCPD. But he had heard too many such complaints, and he knew very well that complaining would not solve the problem. So Zhuang Xuteng turned the topic to the explosion near the nightclub, and learned some new information from the driver.

The riot control unit raided the Blood Bat Gang's stronghold. The two sides fought fiercely, each with casualties. The battle was extremely fierce. According to the information transmitted by the taxi company's radio station, drivers and residents near the war zone even saw people flying and fighting in the sky. The riot control team even used heavy firepower. The ghost energy bombs they fired were as big as basketballs. , obviously already at the level of an energy cannon.

Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao looked at each other, and their colleagues showed shocked expressions. The two of them had been hiding and didn't hear the sound of fighting at all, completely missing all the excitement.

"Did the riot control team win in the end?" Zhuang Xuteng asked.

"How do I know this? It's probably a tie again!" The taxi driver spoke very insightfully and to the point: "They fought with the Blood Bat Gang. After the fight, the Blood Bat Gang was still there, and they were still there, so everyone No one won, no one lost, it must be considered a draw! When the restaurant arrived, the total was 27.5 euros.”

Zhuang Xuteng gave him 30 euros and treated it as a tip without asking for change. After they got off the car, they found that the outside of the music restaurant was loose and the inside was tight. Not only were the unemployed mercenaries who were wandering around here gone, but there were also many more pairs of eyes that were alert to monitor the surroundings. Zhuang Xuteng observed the surrounding buildings. Although he could not find the hidden sentry or sniper spot immediately, he clearly felt that he was being targeted.

"The battle is not small." Ge Gongdao waved and greeted the mercenaries he knew around him, and then walked into the restaurant with Zhuang Xuteng. After entering the gate, an orange-haired female mercenary codenamed "Hedgehog" stopped them, apologized, and searched them.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not suspecting you of betrayal, I just want to be on guard against the PCPD and their superiors." Hedgehog blew him a kiss while searching Zhuang Xuteng, making Zhuang Xuteng fully suspicious of her motive for groping her body. "Okay, go in! Lucy is in the office on the second floor."

In addition to Lucy, Nightingale and Rockbird were also in the office, which was unusual. Judging from their expressions, physical condition, and the simple beds and tableware placed around them, it seems that the two sisters have been here for a long time.

"Just find a place to sit. I haven't asked them to clean it up. You can figure it out on your own." Lucy was wearing a mask and couldn't see her expression, and she was pressing her head with a hood full of light bulbs. "I've been too tired recently, but I finally got a good result. Where did you two hide?"

"It's not far from the address you gave me, hidden in a corner." Zhuang Xuteng pinched his nose, controlled his expression, then removed the two sisters' clothes and sat between them. "How long have you two been here?"

"It's been almost two weeks. We usually sleep here and can only shine by the light. We haven't seen the sun for a long time." Nightingale curled her lips and said: "Although Lucy will not touch us, she will There’s a lot of work to do, and it’s much more tiring than before!”

"Okay, stop complaining, as if I'm bullying you. Now the money you earn is yours, and you can break even including implant maintenance. In addition, you have no debt and are relaxed. This is a state of happiness that I never dared to imagine before. Just stop talking nonsense!" Lucy turned to Gong Gong and said, "The viper has been caught and will be sent to you in a while. Just wait patiently! !”

As soon as Gonggongdao's butt touched the sofa, he suddenly bounced up. He rushed to Lucy, pressed his hands on the table, and asked anxiously: "What? The viper has been caught? Who did it? How could it be done here?" Did I do it before?”

"He was surrounded by the riot squad and had to choose to surrender, and then he was caught. Both the Blood Bat Gang and the casino group suffered miserably at the hands of the riot squad, and finally chose to give up on him and retreated to their lair to lick their wounds. This operation can be considered a success.”

Gongdao was not satisfied. He shook his head and then punched Lucy on the table. "No! I want to catch Viper and make him pay for his betrayal. What does this mean now? Viper surrenders and is caught in front of me and handed over to me for punishment? I haven't done anything yet! I haven't done anything yet. !”

"Calm down." Lucy ducked back and pointed at Ge Gong, signaling Zhuang Xuteng to come over and hold him. "The Viper is still alive, and you didn't kill him. Moreover, he gave up and surrendered, and did not continue to struggle or give you a chance to fight. Don't you blame me? Otherwise, after the Viper is delivered, you can kill him with your own hands. Let it go, and you can have fun chasing it again.”

Ge Gongdao took a deep breath and didn't want to say anything anymore. He sat back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest. Zhuang Xuteng stood up and walked over, rubbing Brother Dao's hair with both hands to absorb some of his resentment. "Sister Lucy, we all feel that things went wrong this time. It's very boring...can you understand what I mean?"

"I understand that the stall I set up was too big, I was poorly prepared and there were problems with resource allocation, which caused the entire operation to be on the verge of collapse, or to be more precise, it had collapsed. Fortunately, I received help and got back on track, and finally it didn't collapse."

"Whose help?" Zhuang Xuteng asked: "Favor or business?"

"You know that person, Palovich." Lucy said: "He has connections in the riot squad and provided strong information network support at critical moments. Only then did he pull the casino group into the water and complete the most critical part of the operation. One ring. You can ask Nightingale and Rock Bird, they know this very well."

The two sisters nodded, acknowledging that Lucy's words were correct.

"The riot control team actively cooperates? Then this matter is unlikely to be settled with money. It must be a favor." Zhuang Xuteng massaged Ge Gongdao's head and said: "Lucy, do you need the two of us to pay back the debt?" This favor?”

"The favor is owed to me, and it's up to me to repay it. It wouldn't hurt to cooperate more with the riot squad. They get more funding from the city than the PCPD. This is a good way. But Palovich hopes Meet you two. After all, you have dealt with each other before." Lucy looked up at her watch and said, "He will bring Viper over at about ten o'clock in the evening and hand over here."

"Does he know we are still alive?" Ge Gongdao suddenly raised his head and asked.

"He thinks you are still alive. I only said that you two were missing and did not disclose other information. Brother Dao, even if I am incompetent, I will not betray the personal information of the contracted mercenaries. I still have this bottom line."

Zhuang Xuteng quickly smoothed things over and said: "Okay, everyone is very tired, so stop arguing. All the problems come from Viper and the casino group, as well as the Blood Bat Gang who took in the traitor. Although this mission is not pleasant, , but it didn’t disappoint, at least the Viper didn’t escape. Lucy, tell us what happened?”

"There's nothing to say, it's all just annoying stuff." Lucy shook her head and sat back in the chair, feeling as if she was paralyzed in it.

It was Nightingale who opened her mouth to explain. She stepped forward and took Ge Gongdao's arm and said, "We encountered great pressure from the information station and almost fell into the trap set by the casino group. The main problem with this mission was due to us. The information ability is not as good as that of the other party. Lucy has done her best. Brother Naike, Brother Dao, don’t be angry.”

"I'm not angry anymore, and I've never been angry with you." Ge Gongdao gently pushed Nightingale's hand away and said, "It's not like there's nothing to gain this time, that is, we are just mercenaries and middlemen, we can't Direct confrontation with an organization like the Casino Group, not to mention the Blood Bat Gang."

"Yes, I also realized this mistake." Lucy said.

Ge Gongdao stood up, patted Zhuang Xuteng on the shoulder, and then said to Lucy: "I'll go down and have something to eat. If you have anything to do, just leave it to Naike. I'll listen to his ideas for future actions. Viper will come over at ten o'clock in the evening." I'll wait for him down there."

From the beginning, this was not a normal mercenary commission. Ge Gongdao wants revenge, and Lucy wants to relieve the pressure from the casino group. The two things are fatefully mixed together. Previous victories in major operations such as the Middleman War and train theft made Lucy overestimate her own strength, and the power she gained from gathering a new group of mercenaries made her lose caution.

"Without Palovic's assistance, I might have been the one raided on the base this time." Lucy admitted to Zhuang Xuteng after leaving Ge Gong Road: "Viper used the blood bat gang's manpower to avoid my surveillance and successfully arranged the plan. Bomb, and at the same time, he also prepared a plan to frame us. That guy wants to stir up a conflict between us and the casino group. This can not only kill Ge Gongdao and solve his major problem, but also help him get rid of it. The trouble of being pressed for information by the casino group.”

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and said: "I guess he has to find a way to solve this matter. After all, he has not found out who did the theft of the treasure house car at all. The casino group cannot have unlimited patience. There is always something wrong with this confusion. When going down."

"We want to use them, and they also want to use us. In this chaos, the Blood Bat Gang also made great efforts. Later, I got the news that the Blood Bat Gang wanted the interests of the Casino Group in Peicheng, which was their motivation to weaken the Casino Group."

Raising his hand and rubbing his eyebrows, Zhuang Xuteng felt that everything was in chaos. The various forces have their own purposes, all of which are arranged at the information level. Bait, trap, cover, attack and defense, for intelligence officers, everywhere is a stage where they can exert their power, and it is also a battlefield where crises are deeply buried. Compared with them, Dao Ge and I, two field operations personnel, are free. Even if we hide and sit for a day, we can win in the end.

After knowing the motives of each party, Zhuang Xuteng can quickly clear the fog of things. "Sister Lucy, Viper wants us to clash with the Casino Group. Could it be that he knows something?"

"At present, he has no evidence in his hands. It's all speculation. He wants the Casino Group to solve the reason made up by Ge Gongdao for him. But your worry is not unreasonable. I will continue to check this line." Lucy said: "This time, the Casino Group suffered serious losses. They can no longer extend their tentacles. This is good news for us. But their manager Tess was not affected. On the contrary, he may be reused.

"Under the attack of the riot strike team, many people in the Blood Bat Gang died. They will be quiet for a while. But they have taken the lead and should have a good chance to eat the remaining benefits of the Casino Group, so Viper is not worth much." Lucy said: "Originally, Viper was well-known because of his good relationship with the Casino Group. Now... Viper bet on this point. He lost the bet and became the only complete loser this time. "

Zhuang Xuteng nodded slowly. He also heard another meaning from Lucy's words - maybe he was overthinking, maybe not - Lucy reminded him by using the example of Viper: Don't bet on the resources behind you. A mercenary without a middleman will hardly have a good future and will most likely lose everything.

Of course, Zhuang Xuteng also had something to say: "Sister Lucy, this chaos also proves that the intelligence war is difficult to control. It is better to implement it on real people and show real strength to fight. My master told us that the victory that can be grasped in the hand is the victory - this should be what he meant. "

"Yes, this job still needs to be done by mercenaries. It is simply not feasible to use the information of intelligence officers to fully control it. It costs a lot of money, has high risks, low returns, and it is easy to get stuck and can't get out. "Lucy obviously understood what Zhuang Xuteng said, she said: "Nake, please help me persuade Brother Dao to stop being angry. Middlemen can also make mistakes, and I did this time. "

"I will persuade him. "Zhuang Xuteng saw that his goal had been achieved, so he would definitely build a staircase for everyone to get down. "I think Dao Ge is upset because he feels that his sins were in vain. When he pinches Viper's neck, he will forget the pain and his mood will improve. Don't worry."
