Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 445 58. Sort Out
"Robbing the terrorist squad is not an easy job."

Jack was listening to Carl and V talking about their experiences today in the team's residence and said, "You were right to refuse."

"We are not fools after all."

V said, "Let's go and mobilize the Terrorist Squad. What are you doing? It's going to be very troublesome if we get involved with those cyber psychopaths."

"I really thought Carl would take this job."

Oliver, who had slept for a day, was brewing coffee with a coffee machine he had just bought. "After all, we have done more troublesome work than this before."

"I don't decide which jobs I take based on how difficult they are. Do you really think I'm some challenge lover who has to choose the most difficult jobs?"

Carl drank sweet tea and said, "This is a job that you know will lead to endless troubles. If you take it, you will be harassed by the crazy people in the city when you return home."

Carl is not afraid of the Terrorist Squad, but at the same time, he does not intend to provoke those lunatics for no reason. Just like in the past missions involving the NCPD chief, Carl chose assassination instead of an open and honest killing. A conflict with that group of lunatics will only get him into trouble.

“The subsequent processing is too troublesome.”

T-BUG sat on the sofa next to him. After his artificial eye flickered a few times, he spoke out the news that had just happened: "The latest news is that a group of people raided the equipment transporting hovercraft of the terrorist mobile team and shot it down in the area of ​​Santo Domingo. According to reports, that group of people belonged to military technology, but they were fired before they carried out the mission. What they carried out had nothing to do with military technology."

“This is too ugly.”

Jack frowned as he listened and commented: "That group of people should be the military technology soldiers who wanted to entrust Carl and V to carry out the mission together before."

"T-BUG, send me the information of that group of people."

"I've sent it to you V."

V raised an eyebrow after checking the information. "That's really the gang. No wonder I refused the mission even after I knew what they were going to do. They didn't even ask me to keep it a secret or let me stay to avoid the secret. It turns out that this matter is so urgent. We just got back less than two hours ago."

"It looks like those Militech soldiers wanted to find someone to take the blame, but the person who was supposed to take the blame didn't agree, so they had to do it themselves?"

Oliver thought for a moment and said, "But the Terrorist Squad will not believe it."

"Of course they won't believe it."

Carl said, "It's better to say that anyone can see clearly that the so-called group of people were expelled from Military Technology and the tasks they performed had nothing to do with Military Technology. This is originally an obvious lie. However, I don't quite understand why the people from Military Technology would rob the vehicles of the Terrorist Mobile Team."

"What's the point?"

V didn't quite understand: "Although it's rare for companies to rob things and kidnap people, it's not uncommon. Companies poach people just like kidnapping, so robbing things is normal, right?"

"If you say that this was done to Arasaka by military technology, I won't be confused at all. Or you can change it to Kangtao, Biotechnology, or Yeshi Company. After all, maybe the hijacked things are related to the data or equipment of secret experiments, but for the Terrorist Mobile Team..."

Carl didn't quite understand and said, "The Terrorist Mobile Team is an organization funded by various companies. If they have something like military technology, wouldn't a company not have it? Is it necessary for them to go to the Terrorist Mobile Team to steal it? And why make it so ugly? I need to sort this out."

Carl reviewed the whole thing.

At first, Esson-Breen got the route information of the Terrorist Mobile Team's transport team from somewhere. Then, in order to attract his niece Oriona, he used this information to cooperate with Oriona's middleman Cormac and established a commission. Then this job had nothing to do with Esson-Breen and Oriona. When they were in a family dispute, Kilai handed the thing to Cormac. Then, Kilai and Cormac were killed by the elite soldiers of military technology who raided. After seeking help from Carl and V to no avail, the soldiers went to rob the Terrorist Mobile Team's things.

To put it simply, the matter is that an old man wanted to have a family negotiation, which led to a mess involving the death of a middleman and a mercenary, as well as military technology and a terrorist mobile team. There is not much to think about here, and there are actually only two points for Carl to think about.

First, how did those military technology personnel know that this thing was the transportation route of the terrorist mobile team? Even V, who participated in the whole mission, only knew that this thing was the transportation route of the terrorist mobile team when the military technology personnel sought assistance. Second, what was the reason for Cormac and Eson-Brain to achieve their goal? Why would he, a middleman, want the transportation route of the terrorist mobile team?

"It's a simple matter."

After Karl expressed his doubts, Oliver said calmly:

"Isn't it the same old thing? How does the saying go? They are taking bribes. The people behind Cormac are the military technology people. They are the ones who really want the transportation route. It's just that they can't do some dirty work openly. Otherwise, if the commission and the communication with the seller are all done by the military technology people, then even if they say it was done by temporary workers, it won't make sense.

So they commissioned a middleman to act as a black glove, and then after the task was completed, the middleman had no value, so they got rid of it. Isn’t this easy to understand?”

"If that's really the case, it makes sense."

Carl glanced at V.

The reason why they didn't just get rid of V and took the risk of the information being exposed was that they made the commission on a whim.

The elite soldiers of Militech were clearly prepared to quickly get rid of Cormac and his mercenaries once the mission was completed, but they were clearly not prepared to face V and Carl, or even the entire team later, so they tried to entrust them with the task. If it worked, they would have more people to take the blame, and if it didn't, they would maintain superficial peace and not be delayed by V. They could quickly carry out the task that didn't require manpower in the first place.

"So, if they didn't think they could capture me in such a short time, I would have been eliminated by them as well?"

V came back to his senses.

"That may be it."

Jack nodded: "It seems that since they have the ability and reputation, they will indeed have some concerns. So now there is a question: how could the people of Military Technology think of taking action against the things of the Terrorist Mobile Team?"

A mission that involved his own team and almost got V eliminated as well, so he had to think it through carefully.

Carl has a simple way to understand this.

"I'll make a call."

Carl had a vague feeling when he called Blanca.

This matter is likely to involve the internal struggle within military technology, and who knows, those crazy guys in the Terrorist Mobile Team might owe them something next.

Very simple thinking.

Blanca's current position is not low, but when Carl slept at her house yesterday, he didn't hear her mention anything about this matter. This kind of matter involving the terrorist mobile team is considered an important matter. If Blanca needs help, she will definitely think of entrusting Carl first, rather than some military technology elite team. This means that the group of people may be other senior people in military technology, and there is no such thing as friendship within military technology. A life-and-death struggle is the norm.

That group of elite soldiers who obeyed a certain senior military technology official stole the goods from the Terrorist Mobile Team. If Carl and his team were to help with the struggle, such as recovering the goods from the Terrorist Mobile Team, then that group of lunatics would have to owe Carl and his team something.
