You are the CEO of Kang Tao Company, but you want to pursue the Internet legacy of a gang in Night City.
Saying this like this is like a superior emperor trying to steal a martial arts secret book from a certain gang. In Lin Mo's opinion, it's really a bargain.
However, he also knew that Xu Wanmeng herself was by no means an impulsive person.
Since this was an order that was conveyed to the Night City branch with her approval, she must have thought deeply behind it.
Lin Mo pondered for a while and expressed his doubts:
"As far as I know, the number of core members of the Voodoo Gang is definitely small. They are almost all cyber hackers who are extremely harmful in cyberspace, but in reality the threat is very average. If you really want to attack them,
Sending a random security force is enough to eradicate them, why did Xu Wanmeng ask me to take action by naming them?"
It has been a while since he returned to Night City, and various events, big and small, have happened during this period, and he has no intention of hiding his identity, so that the intelligence networks of major companies now basically have relevant information about him.
Therefore, Xu Wanmeng herself can definitely analyze that the mysterious person who helped Kang Tao solve AI Xu Shiming is most likely Xu Wanxue's younger brother - Lin Mo.
And now just looking at the number of people, the official members of the Voodoo Gang are actually not that many. Compared with other gangs in Night City, they are not even as good as the former Mox Gang.
No matter how powerful the core members of the Voodoo Gang are in cyberspace, they are ultimately just a group of hackers, and their ability to fight head-on is their weakness.
After all, not everyone can be like V and have the potential to grow up to the point of "staring anyone to death".
Therefore, in Lin Mo's assessment, just sending out a random security force would be enough to deal with the gang. Why should he take action?
"Of course she knows that the Voodoo Gang is not very powerful, but because their core members are all hackers, if we deploy a large number of security forces, this kind of news will never be hidden from them... let alone us, with Voodoo
Helping hostile network surveillance, they must have thought of this method." Xu Wanxue said.
Lin Mo nodded and commented indifferently:
"Is it because you're afraid of alerting the enemy?"
"Yes, rats that can live in deep ditches will naturally have their own way of survival. The reason why the Voodoo Gang can survive to this day is the Haitians who are entrenched in Taiping Prefecture...Those people will help the Voodoo Gang.
People are taking cover." Xu Wanxue said calmly.
If a gang wants to thrive, it is almost impossible for it to develop in isolation from the masses, whether it is collecting protection fees or opening its doors for business.
The Night City government is too lazy to manage the chaotic land of Taipingzhou, so this area naturally needs new "managers".
There is no doubt that the Voodoo Gang became the "manager" of course, and most of the gang members are Haitian.
As long as there is a need, the surrounding people can provide cover for the members of the Voodoo Gang at any time. The members can disguise themselves as civilians. It is not easy to find them one by one.
"I understand, so when are you planning to take action? Also, I need to know what Xu Wanmeng's purpose is?"
Lin Mo asked very casually, with a casual tone, and even stretched out with interest. He put on a nonchalant look, as if the Voodoo Gang was just a group of minions who took care of things at will.
Xu Wanxue answered his questions one by one: "The time to take action has not yet been decided. It depends on when you are free... As for Xu Wanmeng's purpose, it is actually very simple. According to the intelligence we have, the Voodoo Gang seems to have some interest in Otto.
Doing in-depth research..."
Not only was it a very in-depth research, they even found out who Ott's little lover was during his lifetime... Lin Mo cursed in his heart.
He knew very well that the reason why these "traitors" of the Voodoo Gang investigated Ultra was simply to lure Ultra out, and then negotiate cooperation with him to break through the black wall and create an era of AI together.
After all, among the AIs with names and surnames floating around in the old network, Ultra has the greatest reputation.
"Is Xu Wanmeng planning to find out where Ultra is?" Lin Mo then asked.
After talking about this, he almost knew the purpose of the CEO of Kangtao.
She probably didn't know which channel she got the information from, and found out that the Voodoo Gang was secretly investigating Ultra.
The shadow left by the former AI Xu Shiming has not dissipated, and the culprit is still haunting the old network area. If Ultra's traces are not found, it will be difficult for Xu Wanmeng to sleep peacefully.
And this group of madmen who don't care about their lives and believe in AI will inevitably try to go through the black wall to the old network. No matter what precious information they find, as long as they snatch it all, they will eventually find the secret.
Unique whereabouts clues.
Xu Wanxue hesitated for a while, then said uncertainly:
"The instructions from the headquarters just want us to deal with the Voodoo Gang and seize their Internet heritage. As for the more specific reasons, I'm not sure... And Xu Wanmeng's own thoughts may be the same as yours.
Same thing."
Lin Mo was silent for a while, looking deeply at the mountain not far away that seemed to have sunk into the night. With a calm heart, he began to think about the gains and losses behind this matter.
Regarding the news about the Voodoo Gang, Xu Wanmeng did not inform him through the private communication between the two of them. Instead, she sent the instructions from the headquarters to the Night City branch, indirectly through Xu Wanxue being his sister, and finally disclosed this matter.
Details of the commission reached his ears.
In a sense, this is also a kind of temptation.
He didn't like this kind of temptation, and he didn't like the feeling that the initiative was not in his hands.
However, in order to make plans for the future, Lin Mo felt that he had to go to Taiping Prefecture. That area was independent of the jurisdiction of Night City. After all, it was an unstable factor and might even affect his future plans.
Even if Xu Wanmeng intended to hand over this commission to him through his sister's relationship.
But no matter what the process is, he will only be the final executor. How he should report the situation to the "superiors" afterwards depends entirely on his own will, and the initiative will return to his hands.
After thinking about all the pros and cons for a long time, Lin Mo said quietly:
"If this is done, will it be beneficial to your position in the company?"
"That's for sure. If this matter is done by my hands, my voice in the company will definitely be improved, and my position as CTO will be more stable..." Xu Wanxue held the railing with both hands, feeling quite moved.
said:
"Actually, this is already happening. After all, I am the CTO appointed by Xu Wanmeng personally. I still have a high say in the branch. In daily top-level meetings, many proposals have to be passed through me.
consent."
"Then I'll be relieved. At least I don't have to work for nothing this time." Lin Mo said with a smile.
Xu Wanxue also smiled: "But when will you be free?"
"In two days, it's just a small matter, just leave it to me." Lin Mo said calmly.
Xu Wanxue looked at him blankly, and suddenly realized that she had gradually begun to rely on Lin Mo since then, and this time she even took the initiative to leave the matter to him...
I have grown up...
At this time, just when Xu Wanxue was filled with emotion, Lin Mo suddenly turned his head and said to her: "By the way, I have one more thing to do. I want to call a friend to chat. You go back and chat with Sister Ruoying first.
Bar."
"Yeah, okay." Xu Wanxue nodded, turned around and walked indoors.
However, after taking a few steps, she seemed to have thought of something. She turned sideways and looked at Lin Mo and said, "Hey, I just remembered something. If you want to take action by then, do you need to find a network supervisor?"
Do you want people to cooperate? They are very difficult to deal with the Voodoo Gang, maybe we can get some help from them."
"Can you help me contact him?" Lin Mo looked at her in surprise.
"Hey, what's that look in your eyes? Your sister and I are at the top of the company now, okay?" Xu Wanxue said helplessly.
Lin Mo lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally said:
"Okay, I'm also thinking of contacting someone who monitors the Internet. I'll ask you to help me contact them then."
"No problem." Xu Wanxue smiled and nodded, and immediately walked into the house.
After watching his sister leave, Lin Mo still stayed alone on the balcony on the second floor, his eyes slightly lit up with blue light.
After a while, a gentle male voice sounded in his ear:
"Mr. Lin, are you calling me so late? What's the matter?"
