Night City suddenly became quiet, which made Tang Ji feel a little uncomfortable, because other areas were falling into chaos, but Night City seemed to have restored its previous 'calm'.
Well, it's not that peaceful. The conflict between the emerging superhuman gangs and the old-school gangs is intensifying. The appearance of the Thousand-Faced Man is like a spark that ignites the firewood in the hearts of superhumans.
They suddenly realized that in the face of their own strength, those arrogant street warriors were not as scary as they appeared on the surface. As long as they wanted to, they could overthrow the rule of these people.
In short, the numbers in the Dead Man's Lotto are rising every day, and Mayor Luther's face is getting worse and worse every time he is interviewed by reporters.
But fortunately, Tang Ji was still in the city, and both superhumans and street fighters were very restrained in controlling the large-scale firefight at night.
As we all know, Law Enforcer Tang has a bad temper. He likes the rules of the old Law Enforcement Bureau. As long as he does not cross the line, he will rarely interfere in this kind of 'orderly' street war.
But if someone wants to run rampant in the downtown area, he will have to worry that Tang Ji will come to his door, stuff his head into his butt, and make the whole city laugh.
Mikkelsen sends Tanguy a list of suspected Blazers every day, and the length of the list is gradually increasing.
For some unknown reason, Mikkelsen had always hoped to talk face to face with the living pioneers, and this happened to hit Tanguy's weakness.
He knew that Mikkelsen's drunkenness was not about drinking, but Mr. Good Luck, but Carl Wile had already followed his intuition and moved into the Moonlight Gold with Wu Qianying as a permanent resident.
Wu Qianying told Tang Ji that Carl Wile spent every day on the ship teaching a few middle-aged women how to play tricks, and he might be ready to return to Night City soon.
Wang Zhengdao on the other side is also as busy as a company dog, traveling to various places every day, but the results are not bad, he has cleared out twenty-seven pioneers.
Unfortunately, he couldn't let these people die completely. Another thing that troubled Wang Zhengdao was the prophet.
That's right, the prophet is still in the body warehouse. No pioneer has expressed interest in her. Wang Zhengdao has already considered whether to secretly take the prophet back.
Of course, the purpose of his occasional contact with Tang Ji was also to 'borrow' Mr. Good Luck.
Mr. Good Luck, who has always followed his intuition, has made his position very clear. He feels that staying on the Moonlight Gold for the time being is the safest and most in line with his interests.
No one can force Mr. Good Luck, there is no doubt that Tang Ji no longer wants to try the various accidents he encountered in the casino.
By the way, the radiation bullets and daggers donated by Mikkelsen were also delivered to Tang Ji's residence yesterday. Although the Thousand Faced Man had cowardly chosen to commit suicide, Tang Ji knew that the dog would come back sooner or later.
At this moment, a piece of news suddenly broke into his sight. A man wearing a heavy body armor was shooting wildly at the entrance of the bank with heavy firepower. One man suppressed nearly forty law enforcement officers outside.
Tang Ji amplified the sound of the news. It was a live broadcast from North Carolina. The shootout had already happened for fifteen minutes. With the exciting scene, it quickly reached the top of the hot search list.
"Has anyone counted? How many bullets did that crazy gunman shoot out?" The reporter explained the scene in a slightly mocking tone. The drone could get very close to take pictures. Obviously, the gunman didn't care about being filmed at all.
.
He even took off his mask, revealing the face made of molten iron underneath.
"It's Iron Man Rubeus, I knew it! The last gangster in North Carolina!" The reporter said with a tone of sudden realization: "Who else could it be? In order to attract our attention this time, Rubeus even put his own name in advance
The action plan was posted in the network news.”
"By the way, his personal account on Puppy Video is called Full Metal Bandit. Don't call him Tetsuo." The reporter kindly reminded: "Now let's take a look at the scene. The SWAT team finally arrived.
Nearly twenty minutes have passed, and they are finally here!"
The live broadcast screen quickly switched to another drone, looking down at several nearby streets from the air. The screen clearly showed the appearance of the SWAT team's armored vehicle.
Tang Ji picked up the potato chips that someone threw there beside him, leaned back on the sofa, put his legs on the coffee table, and began to enjoy the live broadcast.
He doesn't like the media, very much. Their experience in Night City is that if you have any big action, it's best to bring interference sources to prevent these ubiquitous drones from broadcasting your actions live.
Otherwise those street fighters will let you know what firepower superiority is.
Sure enough, while Tang Ji was munching potato chips, an armored vehicle full of SWAT members was suddenly penetrated by firepower from unknown sources and exploded from the inside.
"Rookie." Tang Ji commented. He saw neither fireworks nor flashes. Eighty percent of the hits that hit the armored vehicle were some kind of kinetic energy projectiles.
This is not a high-end product that ordinary minor characters can get. Tang Ji checked the file of this iron man Rube and found that he was just a minor character on the roadside before.
But now, he is obviously rich.
The bulletproof vest that Ruber was wearing was just a decoration. In the close-up shot, Tang Ji could clearly see the bullet hitting his forehead, but only a few sparks were emitted before it was bounced away.
The drone operator cleverly operated another drone to give a close-up panoramic view of the bank building, allowing people to clearly see the corpses of hostages inside.
According to online videos, Tang Ji saw Luper and his team kill all the security guards and staff after entering the bank, leaving no room for negotiation.
Even Tang Ji couldn't judge the other person's emotions from his iron face, but he could tell from his body movements that Rubeus was in some kind of joy.
In fact, Tang Ji, the criminal who robbed the bank, has not been seen for a long time. Although banknotes are still in circulation, few people use them anymore. The websites of major banks serve more of data collection and customer service.
Given the fierce firepower of the criminal traffickers, the profit they made from robbing the bank this time might not even be enough to pay for the ammunition.
It’s not like anyone knows how expensive firewood and rice are. It was only after Tang Ji started working alone that he noticed how expensive fighting was. In the previous operation to lay out the Night City, the equipment for Ethan alone cost Tang Ji nearly seven million federal coins.
Obviously, Tetsuo is not here for money this time, he is here for fame, just like Losas did when he detonated a nuclear bomb in Night City.
He even brought his own camera team to film him from various angles suppressing law enforcement officers alone.
"Boss, I feel like you are the one who ruined the atmosphere." Tony stood behind the sofa at some point and took a piece of potato chips from Tang Ji's hand.
"Absolutely." Ethan beside him also took away a piece of potato chips: "Look at the drone next to him, the shooting angle is definitely imitating the way I photograph you."
Martin sat down next to Tang Ji, hesitated for a moment and smoked a piece of potato chips, then looked at Tang Ji and said seriously: "It is true that you have ruined the atmosphere."
