Mike sat in DeWitt's car and looked at the road signs passing by: "It's not that I like chatting very much, but I have to say that you walking southeast like this gives me a bad feeling."
DeWitt said: "Sonny said that just sitting in front of the computer is enough to know a lot of things happening in this city. It seems to be true."
"Listen, I can help you hack other people's intelligence, but I refuse to appear at any scene where a gunfight may occur." Mike said: "Today's deal is being handled by Tony and Joe. Maybe you don't know much about it." The situation is that they are the type who like to draw their guns and "shoot" live targets, and I don't want to get within 200 meters of such people."
DeWitt replied: "You can just sit in the car later, and I will be responsible for going out to negotiate. All you have to do is use the 'super phone' you are hiding in your right trouser pocket at the moment." I don't know what to call it either. That thing, in short, you can use it to hack all the electronic equipment on everyone at the transaction site. In addition, keep the car from stalling. "
"How do you know..." Mike asked in surprise.
DeWitt said: "While I was smoking, in addition to contacting Sonny, you also did one thing, which was to hack into my mobile phone. You were obviously not using a computer in an Internet cafe. A hacker of your level can carry it with you." It is normal to carry a modified microcomputer with several self-written software installed in it that can hack into nearby electronic systems at any time. It is just like a man carrying safety measures when going on a date. He is prepared---- Record, if they don't change their phone cards, you can eavesdrop and track the whereabouts of each of them at any time in the future. But listen, I want to live for a few more years, so I won't get off the car. You have to go down there. Muddy Waters is your business. If you are suddenly shot and killed during the negotiation, or knocked unconscious and taken away, I will immediately put in reverse gear and leave."
Seeing the other party's nervous look, DeWitt just smiled noncommittally: "Don't worry, I won't cause any commotion."
While they were talking, at a red light, a homeless man on the street came up to him like lightning and wiped the windshield in front of DeWitt with a watery, dirty sponge.
When the yellow light came on, DeWitt stepped on the accelerator without warning, and the car rushed out. The homeless man couldn't dodge, and his upper body was lying on the windshield. His feet were dangling in the air and he kicked wildly. His whole body was moved forward. When the speed of the car exceeded 80 kilometers per hour, DeWitt braked hard again. The homeless man flew out sideways and fell on the road. Then the street was filled with the sound of brakes and the shouts of drivers. The traffic suddenly fell into chaos.
It all happened so fast, and when Mike reacted he immediately yelled: "Damn it! What are you doing?!"
"Don't worry, he will be fine. He just followed the inertia and flew out, which is similar to falling on a bicycle." DeWitt turned the car and rushed onto the sidewalk: "We can almost start the hit-and-run now."
"You were the one who caused the accident! I want to get out of the car!"
His car crashed on the sidewalk, as if it was in a deserted land. Passers-by used various sharp gestures to avoid the impact of the front of the car. Many street lamp poles and fire hydrants suffered damage: "Relax, Four Eyes, I know What are you doing?"
In this way, Mike's title in DeWitt's mouth changed from "boy" to "four-eyed son", but he had no time to care about it at this moment. The steering wheel was in someone else's hands, so he could only fasten his seat belt and hold on to the car door. He yelled, "Stop the car, you crazy guy!"
DeWitt explained in a calm tone: "Appropriate chaos can attract the police. This is not a bank robbery. They will not come too fast, but traffic paralysis is not a trivial matter, so they will not come too slowly." The trading location is at Beifeng Island Park. Apart from swimming there, the only other option is to take Highway 1400 and turn to Highway E. I will use this method first to slightly adjust the police deployment in the city. If Tony and Joe and I don't get along well, once If there's a gunfight or a big explosion with flames shooting into the sky, the police can get to the scene faster."
By then the car was back on the road, and they took a shortcut from the sidewalk to avoid the heavy traffic.
Mike replied: "I said, if you have a violent conflict with them, I will run away."
DeWitt said: "Yes, my behavior just now also took this situation into consideration. When you tried to abandon me and leave the park alone, you should have passed by the large police force on Highway E. They You will see a hit-and-run vehicle that caused a traffic commotion not long ago leaving the scene of the shootout. By the way, I stole this car, so you will be arrested and face multiple charges at the same time."
Mike slumped in his seat, his eyes dull: "I think I have to re-evaluate your impression in my mind, and reconsider the charge for this service."
… …
Fifteen minutes later, Beifeng Island Park.
Tony is a fat man with a sinister face and fierce eyes. He is not an excellent killer in the Genovese family, but he will not lose to anyone in terms of cruelty; and Joe is an old mafia man with gray hair. At his age, he is still responsible for this kind of delivery work, which only shows that he is not smart enough. But to be able to survive to this day on the front line, in addition to being lucky, he must also have two skills.
Both men were fatally wounded in the gunfight. Of course, in the mid-to-late 21st century, so-called fatal wounds may not necessarily be fatal. Therefore, Tony's right hand and Joe's left leg have many new functions since then, such as "shooting" bullets, or storing grenades, etc. Human transformation technology has long been widely used in the Imperial Army and the HL, so private criminals are not far behind. They quickly obtained technical information in this area from the black market, veterans, and even government officials. Today, this level of transformation is very common among gangs, but their combat capabilities are far from that of a true transformation person. At best, they are equipped with some high-tech weapons to replace prosthetic limbs.
At this moment, Tony and Joe were standing next to a van smoking a cigarette. In addition to the two of them, there was a driver and four men on standby responsible for moving. Not long after, another car drove up and parked next to them. Four or five people got out of it, one of whom was carrying a black suitcase, which obviously contained cash.
"Oh, Tony, old man, how have you been lately?" The middle-aged man headed by the person who picked up the goods greeted warmly.
Tony took out the cigarette butt from his mouth, threw it to the ground and stamped it out: "It's okay, but I don't like waiting for people. Just now Qiao and I were discussing that if you come a little later, we will throw you into the lake. Feed the fish.”
The man laughed and seemed to think the joke was really good, and Tony and Joe also smiled without laughing. In this kind of transaction, no one will trust anyone, and no one will truly regard the other as a friend. In the next second, the joke may be just a joke, or it may become reality.
The two parties inspected the goods and counted the money, and then the leaders gathered together to smoke cigarettes and talk nonsense, while the minions began to move the goods. In fact, this kind of work is not complicated at all. The drugs brought across the ocean are hidden in chocolate boxes and transported to another group of people. That group of people is responsible for processing these extremely pure white powders into Different levels of demand goods are distributed to some small bosses in charge of sales, and finally to those "drug" dealers who are fighting on the front line. They can be found everywhere on the street, in front of convenience stores, nightclubs, and universities. This is a very mature sales network with a long history. Only the war briefly suspended the operation of this business.
In these links, many of the handlers don’t even look like they are working in gangs. They do the same things as ordinary blue-collar workers. Drivers are responsible for driving, horsemen are responsible for transporting goods, and underground factory “workers” are responsible for processing and sales. Officers seek out addicts with stable incomes as well as new clients. The work of these special blue-collar workers is actually not easy, but they have more reasonable remuneration and face the threat of imprisonment for more than ten years at any time.
To sum up, the only difference between this business and general daily necessities sales is that they can't blatantly rent a store to sell, that's all.
It only took the two gangs ten minutes to complete the transaction, and they were very skillful. Tony and the leader of the other party hugged each other and said a few nonsense words about happy cooperation. The two parties were about to part ways, but an accident happened at this time. .
A young man of about twenty years old walked towards them and said as he approached: "Hey! Fat Tony!"
It was almost closing time for the park, and there was no one around. The sudden appearance of a strange face made both parties nervous. And as soon as this guy opened his mouth, he said a nickname that Tony didn't like to hear. It was undoubtedly like... Sprinkled a handful of salt into the pan.
"Who are you? Asshole." Tony yelled rudely.
DeWitt sneered and replied: "Me? I'm just passing by. I want to say hello to you on behalf of Sonny."
Hearing this name, Tony felt as if he had been beaten to death. He rushed forward and punched Devitt down to the ground. Then he pressed his left elbow on the opponent's collarbone and showed his right hand wearing a black leather glove. Pointing four fingers at DeWitt's face: "Under this pair of gloves, there is a metal right hand. It can beat your head into a honeycomb with brains flowing out in two seconds. So what do I ask you now? You It’s best to answer truthfully.”
DeWitt's expression was still very relaxed, and he casually replied: "OK."
"What did Sonny send you to do?"
"He didn't send me." DeWitt replied: "He just told me that Tony from the Genovese family will be here today to make a delivery. I think with his wisdom, he is nothing more than suggesting that I call the police to destroy it. That’s all.”
"Hahahahaha..." Tony laughed: "In the end, you, an idiot, walked in front of us alone looking for death?"
"Judging from the fat man's reaction, there must be something going on between him and Sonny. Members of the Italian Mafia cannot easily kill people or destroy each other's family's business for personal vendettas, so Sonny wants to use me, an outsider, to do something. Hmm... It seems that he still doesn't believe in my ability, so he thought it would be nice if he could use me to take revenge on this fat man once, but then blame it entirely on me, who is not even a partner, and it doesn't matter if I really sacrifice him." DeWitt didn't care about the other party's threats at all, and thought to himself: "What an irritating waste. I wonder if the boss of Lucchese is also so stupid. Forget it, let's do it first."
He suddenly grabbed Tony's right hand and broke the piece of metal into two pieces under the other's shocked gaze.
When the group who picked up the goods saw the change in the situation, they immediately said: "Now that the money and goods have been cleared, this is a matter between you and the Lucchese family, and we will not get involved." After that, he got into his own car. The car drove away quickly.
Joe and Tony's other cavalrymen all took out their guns and approached DeWitt.
"You should know that when the gun goes off, there will be trouble." DeWitt dusted himself off and stood up.
"It depends on which one is more serious, the trouble caused by this kind of trouble or the trouble caused by keeping you alive." Qiao said sinisterly, letting the other party understand that he didn't mind pulling the trigger.
Tony no longer dared to get close to the other party at this time. He carefully took out his gun, kept his distance, and said, "Are you also a reformer?"
"Transformation? Haha... Do you think that when you are missing arms and legs, just decorating it with parts with weapons is transformation? Hahaha." DeWitt smiled disdainfully: "Fat man, you are no better than Sonny. Smart, since I dare to appear alone in front of a gang of heavily armed gangsters like you, I am naturally prepared."
He said unhurriedly: "I did not call the police, but I used a certain method to make many police officers wander around not far from here. If you shoot, I suggest you consider an escape route first."
Joe said in his hoarse voice: "I don't know where you are from, but you can see that our deal has been completed. What else do you want now? Kill Tony and go to Sonny to collect the reward." ? We have an absolute numerical advantage here, I advise you to think about it carefully."
DeWitt's face darkened: "Of course, I have thought about what I want to do before I come here, and your reaction is also expected. The plan will not change..."
