Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 508 121. Good Days

NCPD enters Taiping State again.

This should not have happened in the open, but because of Carl's presence, NCPD came again.

The Haitians who were fleeing in panic were all confused when they saw the law enforcement officers who had never arrived.

After getting used to gang management, after the gangs are destroyed, what comes is the NCPD?

The law enforcers from Night City have arrived. They have come to the gathering place in Taiping State, which they have been waiting for a long time to come. They have come to the Taiping State, which they have officially abandoned.

"Set up a cordon and ask all unrelated citizens to leave. The NCPD will take over the rest of the matter."

Andy walked down from the sky as the law enforcer transformed by Hera, facing the panicked and helpless gazes of the Haitians around him, and commanded his team to act quickly.

Listening to his loud shouting without suppressing any sound, the Haitian people looked at each other in confusion.

Citizen?

Did the sheriff call them citizens?

Haitians have always been an excluded group in Night City. They came to Night City because the construction of Taiping State required cheap labor, and therefore they settled here. Since they have never enjoyed any protection from the city government, Haitians believe in one thing: "We don't need the city government, and the city government doesn't need us. Taiping State is a place we built with our own hands, and it should be our place to stay." But now, they are classified as citizens.

Is this another conspiracy by the city government, to turn them into cheap labor again, or to make them pay some taxes?
The Haitians should have been wary of the movements of NCPD officers, but after they lost the Voodoo Gang, they looked around and could only see the NCPD.

If they give up on NCPD, who will be able to protect them again?

The Voodoo Gang that brought them fear has left, but there is still the Animal Gang and the Nether Dogs near Taiping State, or the Six Street Gang. They are still here. If they come, how are they going to resist?

'If we pay the NCPD and bribe them, will they protect us? Will they be better than the Voodoo Gang? Will there be no more resurrected corpses among us whose heads have been burned out by electronic signals?'

The Haitians don't know it, but the NCPD has chosen to take over.

It didn’t matter that the city government had given up on Taiping State.

Because NCPD has not given up Taiping State.

If you want to make NCPD obedient, that's not impossible. First, support someone who has the prestige to command more than half of the NCPD police officers, and then double the benefits that NCPD enjoys now. But which city council candidate can do this now?
The NCPD will naturally listen to major events. After all, they are all part of the Night City system and no one can be missing from the other. However, small matters like opening a NCPD branch police station in the abandoned Taiping State do not require the bigwigs above to worry about.

This is a request from KK, which has been approved by Deputy Chief Johnson. No one from the city government can interfere, and the current NCPD chief is not qualified to interfere.

"We, the NCPD, will establish a base in this location."

Andy said to Carl who was walking over, "With this base, it will be easier to transport goods from the Badlands to the city."

"And the stuff from Dogtown."

Carl sent Mr. Hands' number to Andy: "You can call this number, Hands, the middleman for this area in Taipingzhou. He is also interested in this area." "Hands."

Andy seemed to understand something: "Could it be that he arranged the Voodoo Gang-related matters for you this time?"

"You can't say that."

Carl still remembered what he promised Hands: "I just think he is a very good partner."

"I'll be in touch."

Andy didn't say anything. He used to be a mercenary, so he naturally understood the relevant matters. As for middlemen, they were just like that. If there was no benefit, forget it if you wanted them to help you, unless there was a friendship between the two that might or might not exist.

But if Hands also participates, then perhaps some transportation will be more convenient.

As the most popular police chief in the NCPD police department, Andy is also regarded as the successor to the next deputy chief. He knows everything about the current situation in Night City.

Even though the ghost hounds in Dogtown and the NCPD in Night City don't get along, if the NCPD wants to buy weapons, especially in large quantities, Dogtown will definitely be the first to jump out and provide them, for no other reason than that they are close.

In transportation, the distance of the road is often the top priority regarding risks and benefits.

Take over this gathering place of Haitians, establish a NCPD territory in Taiping State, and then connect with Dog Town and reach out to Dog Town.
In this process, NCPD will definitely make a lot of profit. If they are more relaxed, the endless flow of funds may be able to satisfy the appetites of more senior officials. At that time, Mr. Johnson, the deputy director, may also be able to become the director in public.

Andy thought a lot. The end of a gang will naturally bring about a gap in the profit pie. Before destroying the gang, Carl determined the division of the profit pie to ensure that the people involved would not be strangers, but people who would do things according to his own rules. Did Carl have thought so much before?
This question made him ask: "Karl, have you thought about the division of this place after the Voodoo Gang is destroyed?"

"I can think of some, but I'm not a god, so how can I think of everything?"

Carl said quite honestly:

"At first, I just found that the number of Voodoo Gang members was not the kind that would be unacceptable to clean up. Then I thought about the need for personnel to communicate with the Voodoo Gang. Then, of course, I thought of Hands, the middleman of Dogtown. If a place loses its manager, shouldn't a new manager come? There aren't many people I can think of. The first person I can think of is the NCPD, the official group with you and Mr. Johnson."

"So, Carl thought of every step during the process?"

But these steps just satisfied everyone who took over except the Voodoo Gang.
If Carl didn't do this on purpose, it only shows that Carl is indeed a person who always thinks about others.

Really, it’s as warm as the sun.

Andy looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, making him feel warm.

What will the Taiping Prefecture, where the Voodoo Gang was destroyed, look like tomorrow?
Nobody knows.

But anyway, today
It was a good day indeed.
