Are you saying that Aiden Pierce is a good person? He probably doesn't admit it himself...or he can't fully admit it.
First of all, he is an unemployed vagrant with no legitimate occupation. However, according to the cultural habits of this country, he should be called a "freelancer", a hacker who is proficient in computer technology.
His proficiency lies in the fact that he is one of the few elite hackers who can hack into a city's public system and steal confidential information using a mobile phone.
Secondly, Aiden has a long record of minor crimes, including but not limited to computer fraud, large-scale theft, etc. In the past, he even served 11 months of hard labor for this.
To this day, he still has a reward on his head for crimes such as illegal trespassing, possession of weapons, and theft, but his real name is not on the reward.
To sum up the above two points, Aiden Pierce's background becomes very clear. He is a cyber thief in a gray area.
Sometimes they fight violent crimes in alleys, but more often they use advanced computing systems to crack electronic accounts and steal electronic account deposits to make a living.
There is a saying that goes, "Goose pecks you in the eye when you are hunting geese all day long." During an electronic account theft operation at the Merlot Hotel, he and his mentor Damien lost their way, which was the beginning of the subsequent series of tragedies.
The trigger was the death of Ms. Rose Washington. She was killed at the Merlot Hotel that day. This may be the reason why they were targeted.
Rose Washington, a social philanthropist and a woman with considerable influence in the political world, is rumored to be the mayor's girlfriend. Although the two parties have not publicly confirmed or denied the authenticity of the news, there are rumors that they are in a relationship.
Photos leaked online.
Two days ago, she was found dead in a luxury suite of the Merlot Hotel during an ordinary drinking party. She had been strangled to death. However, the police did not even have any clues about potential suspects, and the investigation of the case was suspended.
But why was Aiden involved in a vicious murder case that he had not learned about until now? As the on-site executioner of Damien, his master and partner, he had been active in the lobby on the first floor that day and had no chance to go to the second floor where the victim was.
Even after being counterattacked by enemy hackers, he quickly and proactively cut off contact and left the hotel lobby before the alarm was triggered, but why was he still considered an assassination target and became a victim?
It's a pity that neither Aiden nor Xie Yuan can find the answer for the time being. The top priority is to get rid of the assassination!
…
"Aiden?" My sister suddenly said with a worried expression, "Did you seem to be there that day? Does all this... have anything to do with you?"
"No, I was... repairing computers for people." Xie Yuan looked at his sister Nicole and rolled her eyes when she heard "computer repairs." He could only comfort you: "I can only promise you one thing, I know this."
The time of the matter is definitely not much earlier than yours."
"Okay." My sister, who also didn't understand the details, could only convince herself that it was purely self-doubt, but the uneasiness in her heart became deeper and deeper.
Although it didn't show on his face for the time being, Xie Yuan sighed deeply in his heart. If possible, Xie Yuan would also want to turn the car around immediately, not wanting to take his family on such a life-and-death risk.
But whether it was due to rule restrictions or to isolate subsequent effects, Xie Yuan had to completely destroy this assassination operation, even if it would trigger a larger-scale assassination later!
Forgive me. Xie Yuan apologized silently in his heart.
Five minutes later, Xie Yuan drove all the way into the tunnel, and the invisible multi-tool terminal he was carrying vibrated to prompt a message - a malicious signal was found!
Xie Yuan immediately sat up with his back straight and began to pay attention to the rearview mirror and the front, until he suddenly heard the sound of a truck driving in his ears when he drove to the middle of the tunnel.
He immediately turned on the scanning function of the multi-tool, but noticed that there were only a small number of malicious signals in the driving position of the truck, and most of them were behind the truck, and it was retreating!
Although the truck was still hanging far behind the car, Xie Yuan did not dare to neglect and kept focusing on the three rearview mirrors.
It wasn't until the sound of motorcycles mixed with the sound of trucks that Xie Yuan realized that the enemy was attacking with motorcycles and using trucks to block the back road as a means of action.
Knowing the means of action made him feel less stressed. After all, fear came from the unknown.
"But don't be careless yet," Xie Yuan warned himself in his heart, "We have to see how good the motorcycle killer team on the other side of the ocean is!"
Nicole, who also heard the roar of the truck, looked in the rearview mirror and saw the increasingly serious look on her brother's face in the driver's seat, and her heart gradually sank.
…
The truck was already less than a few hundred meters away from his car. The traffic conditions in the tunnel today were also very strange. There were no other vehicles except trucks and motorcycles. On such an open road, they could rush at such a speed.
He came here obviously to express his intention.
It's just a pity that he doesn't even have a gun in his hand, so it will be a bit troublesome to fight back. And most importantly, his sister and her two children are also traveling with him in the car. How to protect them as much as possible is a difficult problem.
The best way is to keep bumping into them and knocking them over when you get close, and you have to get very close to be sudden.
Therefore, Xie Yuan unbuckled his niece's seat belt amidst everyone's dumbfounded expressions, lifted her into his sister's hands with one hand, and said seriously: "Fasten your seat belt, and lower your head at any time if you need to obey my orders."
!”
"What's going on? You still said it has nothing to do with you?" My sister asked anxiously, while fastening Nina's seat belt in a hurry, "What on earth did you do?"
"That's a good question. I swear to God I have nothing to do with this matter." Xie Yuan turned back with a look of helplessness and explained to his sister: "But these motorcycles are definitely malicious!"
After saying that, he smiled mockingly to himself. The only thing he could guarantee was that he had nothing to do with the "murder case of Ms. Rose".
But do the masterminds at the top need to care about the lives of the rat scum below? The masterminds behind the scenes are more concerned about whether the fermentation of subsequent events after this incident will trigger changes in the current chain of governance.
Therefore, no matter how much he denies it, he becomes a target of suspicion, and everyone involved in this matter may have been dealt with!
Even if the assassination is destroyed this time, it will not stop, because the killers are just dogs raised with a few bones. Just kill a group today and recruit another group tomorrow.
The problems of Aiden's sister and her family can only be regarded as additional damage, because they happen to be together now.
There are some things that cannot be clearly explained to children, but Nicole understood as soon as she heard it. Because of Aiden's presence, he was turned into a scapegoat.
"Actually, there is... a pistol in the passenger compartment." The sister seemed hesitant to speak, but for the safety of the child, she quickly said firmly to Aiden: "That is the gun left by the child's father.
If you find something wrong, shoot! Don't let them hurt Pixon and Nina."
Damn it, this is the unique culture of the beautiful country. Can you live without food and guns? As soon as he opened the car cabinet, a Glock 17 with a black plastic shell slid into his eyes.
He picked up the pistol and saw that the safety was fully closed. After opening the safety, he opened the slide with one hand and checked, but it was not loaded.
Then remove the magazine to check the amount of ammunition. There is a magazine full of bullets, but there is no spare magazine. The extra bullets are better than nothing.
After putting the magazine back into the gun body, Xie Yuan pushed the gun across his chest from right to left and loaded it, then placed the gun on the platform behind the steering wheel.
Looking in the rearview mirror at his trembling niece and nephew behind him, and at his younger sister who was pretending to be strong but whose legs couldn't help but trembling, supporting his brother with understanding eyes, Xie Yuan felt very sorry.
But he hopes not to let regret come again!
…
Morris led several familiar men to follow a truck at a constant speed on motorcycles. After passing the middle of the tunnel, he gestured to his men to divide into two groups to outflank the car, and then they all overtook the truck and started.
action.
As an illegal immigrant from the Cactus Country, he relied on doing underworld work to make a living from the beginning. After years of hard work, he has been promoted to an outsourced scavenger for the largest interest group in Windy City, and has completely established a foothold in Windy City.
He didn't know how many people were in the car or what the secret was. He just received a call and had to deal with one person.
Thinking back to that phone call:
"Maurice?"
"Yes."
"You have been activated. We already know who the hackers were at the Merlot Hotel that day through searches. There is only one target you have to deal with, Aiden Pierce, kill him. If necessary, his family will not be spared."
But, this person’s hacking career is over!”
"his family?"
"Is there a problem?"
"No, not at all. I will deal with them well and ensure that he will disappear from the world!"
He looked at the mobile phone placed on the dashboard. The mobile phone that had been on the screen suddenly glowed brightly - the caller was an unknown number, and there was only one content: It's time to move!
"Boom!" He cranked the accelerator and led several other motorcycles to follow.
….
The motorcycle was very fast, and it soon caught up with their car, and soon began to divert left and right to outflank them.
A motorcycle on the right soon started to run parallel to him, which was interfering with his line of sight and distracting him.
Soon there were two motorcycles on the left that started to run parallel to his car, which meant that Xie Yuan's car was now "clamped" by several motorcycles.
Looking at the familiar scene, Xie Yuan inexplicably showed a mocking smile. The attack and killing process on the highway was not unfamiliar to him at all.
Once upon a time, he was also a leader among motorcycle killers, but now he has changed from a perpetrator to a victim, trying hard to escape from the assassination. It is really a turn of events.
This is not the first time Xie Yuan has participated in a mission. In fact, during the previous trial period, he played the role of the protagonist Shen Wei and Officer Shen in the world of "Hot-Blooded Scoundrels".
As an undercover agent who once lurked in the Xin On Yi community, he also participated in many motorcycle assassinations and gang fights to win the gang's trust.
Although the final result was to successfully bring down a vicious boss, he secretly sent Shen Wei's "best friend" Jack Ma overseas to seek refuge in violation of regulations, and killed too many people while protecting Winston and Page. People are controversial.
In the end, Shen Wei's job was saved, but the evaluation was only passing. Xie Yuan finally only received the basic rewards of Driving, Fighting and Shooting lv.1.
But he didn't regret it, because the result was in line with his wishes, and that was enough.
