Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 578 191. Schedule

"Hawthorn Moth Bar. It turns out there's a secret service nest hidden underneath. I now understand where you were based in Dog Town."

In the equipment chair placed in the basement of Hawkmoth Bar, a line was temporarily pulled to start adjusting the data and operating the slider of the equipment. While busy, he said to Li De:

"This kind of place has been exposed to me, Li De, just tell me the truth. You don't intend to let me live after I finish my work. Your secret hiding place of agents has been known to others, and you have done a lot to eliminate those who know about it, right?"

"Don't be doubting this or that slider over there. Adjust it quickly. Although the equipment left here is not as good as your base, it is enough for us to use. Time waits for no one. Hurry up and do it."

"The equipment is almost seven or eight years old, so we can only make do with it. But Li De, time is very short, and I at least need to know whether I can survive. You should tell me exactly how you plan to kill me after this mission is over, so that I can be prepared."

Hua Tiao's words made Li De cast a cold look at him, but Li De then sighed and said in a low voice: "After this matter is over, you have nothing to do with us anymore, and we will not come to you in the future. You can do your own thing. Even if you develop a voodoo gang in Dog Town, no one will care."

"I'll take your words seriously, Li De. Anyway, I don't have any ability to resist, but..."

Slide's eyes moved towards Carl's location: "Fortunately, there is someone who knows this secret place. I can feel at ease."

“This isn’t really a secret place.”

Carl, who was being talked about, folded his arms and leaned on one side: "I knew about this place when I took the job last time. It's better to say that the United Intelligence Bureau really believes in the integrity of my team. This place can still be used until now. Although according to Li De, the United Intelligence Bureau already has a new base, but I think..."

Carl glanced at Reed and said, "If there were enough people and agents in the United Intelligence Agency in Dog Town, they wouldn't have sent only an ace agent and a mercenary like me this time, and also brought in a hacker like you who is known as a 'scumbag'."

"That sounds much more normal."

Hua Tiao was very satisfied with Carl's words. In his opinion, in terms of getting along with others, Carl, the famous mercenary, was much more talkative than Li De, who was like a stinky stone in the toilet.

Li De's cold and unpleasant look was so stubborn and hard, and he started talking about threats and doing things. Even if you really want to do something, you will lose interest after hearing what he said. If it wasn't a matter involving life and death, who would be willing to be so busy debugging equipment?

"I feel like I can get along with you a little. Although you killed the Voodoo Gang, I myself had a falling out with that group of people. If I can really survive like the big agent said and have no more involvement with the CIA, you can come to me if you have any trouble in the future. The puppets and equipment I sell here are pretty good, and I can give you a discount."

Listening to Slide's words that were a bit like soliciting business and making friends, Carl nodded indifferently:

"No problem. Although I think my teammates are the best hackers for us, I never know when I might need your help. Just don't let me find out that you're doing the same thing as the Voodoo Gang, or I'll definitely come and kill you. Don't cross the line, but I'll definitely come to you if there's anything."

"Then I can look forward to some business."

Under Reed's gaze, Carl and Slide had a pleasant conversation, but this chat only lasted until Slide finished adjusting the equipment and started to crack. After starting to crack, Slide shut up and began to concentrate on the work. Obviously, even for a hacker like him, he had to be cautious and vigilant every time he did something, and it was impossible to do two things at the same time.

After Slider shut up, Carl looked at Reed and found that he was just staring at Slider without any intention of chatting, which saved him the trouble of chatting.

It was expected to take a long time, so Carl went upstairs to the bar, set up some small things, mixed himself three glasses of iced mint sweet tea, and took them downstairs.

He first placed a cup next to the slider he was working on, protecting the cup to prevent the liquid inside from spilling and interfering with anything, and then Carl brought the sweet tea to Reed.

Reed noticed Carl walking towards him out of the corner of his eye and turned around, only to find that Carl was handing him a cup of sweet tea.

"Drink?"

Listening to Carl's words, Reed knew at a glance what Carl handed over. He looked at Carl's casual posture, hesitated for a moment, and then took the sweet tea.

He assessed the probability and felt that it was unlikely that Carl had tampered with the drink. In addition, he was indeed carrying the slider all the way and was a little thirsty.

Carl didn't care about Reed's thoughts. He naturally gulped down the sweet tea he had prepared. Then, he found that Slide's eyes were open.

The blind Slide naturally couldn't see anything with his eyes, but when he was busy, he kept his eyes closed. His opening of his eyes was like a signal, which made Li De, who had just taken a sip of sweet tea, take the sweet tea in his hand and walk over quickly:

"how's it going?"

"Protection, information, beyond the ordinary, beyond imagination."

Slide subconsciously spoke in a way similar to answering a riddle, and then realized that the people in front of him were not his subordinates who were seeking his guidance, but Reed and Carl, so he immediately changed his words:
"The information inside is a bit too complicated. I have never seen so many tricks on a chip that stores information. Even the content is shuffled and segmented. It's incredible, really incredible. The hacker's method is absolutely beyond imagination."

Listening to the slide bar that sounded like an exclamation, Li De frowned again: "So what is the content inside, what did you see?"

"I have only cracked part of it. I am using an automated program to attack the other part. It shouldn't take long. But I think you guys would like to know more about this part, so I will talk to you for now."

Hua Tiao obviously didn't intend to keep the secret any longer. He only said one sentence and Li De was stunned.

"It seems that there is a traitor around the President, and the traitor is very close to the President. I was inside and saw the President's recent schedule."
