Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 167 26. Seeking Justice
"Is that clear, Mr. Johnson?"

"It was explained clearly, or rather too clearly, so that it was difficult for me to summarize the key information."

Johnson looked at Karl with a strange expression: "Now they don't even want to survive, they want to die. It wasn't you who did it. Did you do anything special?"

"The devil knows."

Karl himself was speechless: "So what did they confess?"

"The general situation is clear now."

After Johnson sorted out the information in his mind, he said, "These two guys, in collusion with people outside, have been selling out their own people. It's too expensive to transport real meat from outside Night City. Some people who can't afford the full transportation price also want to taste the real meat, so they used the money to bribe them and let them sell out their own transportation route. The deliveryman took the wrong thing during transportation, and when he found the real meat, he was killed by the people behind him. The detective was discovered at that time and was imprisoned because of his identity."

“Transportation routes.”

Jade, who was listening nearby, had an unhappy expression on his face: "I always thought that the transportation discovered by NCPD these days was an accident, and the meat was also confiscated by NCPD."

"We haven't confiscated any real meat. If you're talking about some smuggling incidents, I do have some impression that someone has been reporting this to us, but when our people went there, they only found chips recording the transportation of real meat and a pile of dead bodies."

Johnson recalled and said, "We just collected the bodies, but it was a credit anyway, so we said that for the sake of face."

"Fuck, these two bastards! I had always believed that it was a line accident and that the line we had left behind was no longer safe!"

Jed was a little annoyed. He was the person in charge of smuggling in the logistics center. Other people who were willing to smuggle trusted him and gave him their lives and the right to distribute the rewards. However, because he trusted those two scumbags, the other people who trusted him died.

"Six lives, all brothers who grew up with them, they sold out their brothers just for those euros?!"

"The total amount of money from the two of them is only 5,000 euros. I checked their usage records and found that they have received about 20,000 euros in total. They have spent most of the money they received in the past. This 5,000 euros was transferred to them recently. Just for 5,000 euros, they are willing to sell it out once."

Carl also felt a little emotional, and then he transferred the 5,000 euros that he had received from the two people without asking for it to Jed:

"Although their money cannot be compensated, at least we can give some guns to the families of those who died. They cannot live without guns these days."

"Row."

Jed had no intention of refusing the five thousand euros. Most of his money was given to the families of his brothers who died in the conspiracy. Apart from the necessary money for smuggling, he still had more than ten thousand euros in savings. With the five thousand euros, he could give some more to the families of his brothers.

After receiving the money, Jade transferred back the 10,000 euros that Carl had given her earlier.

The pork is gone, the deal cannot be made, and the money must be returned.

But his transfer request was rejected by Carl.

"Don't worry."

Karl smiled and said, "The pork may not be gone. We still need to talk to the person behind the scenes. He took my pork without permission, didn't he?"

Hearing Karl's words, Jed's lips pressed into a line. He looked at Karl deeply, and then nodded heavily: "Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for? I was just trying to save someone on the way. Isn't it natural to save a beautiful cat-eared detective who is waiting for me to save her like a dragon imprisoned? And to eradicate the dragon?"

Carl sat in the law enforcer: "Mr. Johnson, it's time to drive." "Don't be so anxious, my people haven't arrived yet, I still have to hand over some people. And I may not be able to take you to your destination this time, okay?"

Johnson tied up and knocked out the two traitors, then looked at Karl: "Are you going to break into that place?"

"I received the alarm. Please, Mr. Johnson, delay a little longer."

“I don’t have that right.”

Johnson said this with a smile: "But if I receive an alarm nearby, I will suddenly feel that my belt is a little loose today, and my clothes are a little untidy. If I don't take my subordinates to tidy up for half an hour, it may be difficult to set off. After all, we are the NCPD. We are the face of Night City, right? How can we go to see the nobles in such a messy manner?"

"Then you really need to dress up."

Carl smiled as he flipped through the information Johnson had sent him, which revealed the location of the man behind the scenes.

Westbrook's North Oak district is the only place in the city where elites live without any traces of gangs and poverty. I am really looking forward to it.

It's great that an ordinary mercenary like me can be "invited" to go there and see the world.

I really don't know if that elite who already had enough wealth, but killed six people out of greed and only thought about saving money, would feel a little bit of a 'little surprise' when he receives my visit?
Being rich and being greedy do not conflict with each other, so the attitude that the elites can show when facing death is probably no different from that of the six people who died.

If you show an attitude that I am not satisfied with, then I will have to really consider whether to try certain methods.

After the NCPD officers arrived, Johnson got into the driver's seat of the "Enforcer". This time, what the Enforcer was going to do was not in compliance with Night City laws, but it was enough to be considered "law enforcement".

"Want to go together?"

Carl opened the car door and extended an invitation to Jed, who was standing there watching the two traitors being taken into the police car.

"of course."

Holding the Lexington, Jed shook Carl's hand without hesitation.

For the sake of our brothers, we must seek justice no matter what.

Whether it is for the brothers who have passed away or for the brothers who were once brothers, we must seek justice from the person behind the scenes.

Even if it is a Lexington, holding it, people have the right to face it together.

Kenichi Shiro, who had sat in the co-pilot seat early, did not say anything about Carl's decision. He just silently started the remote communication.

Not long after, members of the Tiger Claw Gang located on Japan Street next to the North Oak District in Westbrook received instructions from their superiors.

A big shot in the North Oak District who had signed an emergency escort agreement with them, but the agreement has now been canceled.

the reason.

He dared to attack those who were dangerous girls.
