"Hansen, a former colonel of the military science and technology force, was ordered to come to Night City during the Unification War. He originally planned to capture the city for New America, and at that time he had already secured a base with an extremely advantageous geographical location.
..However, with the intervention of Arasaka Company, the war suddenly ended, and he and the troops he led were all abandoned as abandoned sons. In the end, Hansen, who had no choice but to stay in Night City, became king on his own."
In the spacious office, Lai Xuan pointed at the character information listed on the screen and briefly introduced Lin Mo in clear sentences.
Lin Mo listened and nodded from time to time.
He looked at the detailed information related to Hansen displayed on the screen, and felt that Arasaka's intelligence department had almost stripped off this man's underwear. This also gave him an idea of how powerful the Arasaka company's intelligence department was.
A deeper understanding.
Looking at the network of connections related to "Hansen" and the funding channels for black market transactions in Dog Town on the screen, Lin Mo admired from the bottom of his heart:
"It seems that although this guy is a warlord, he is also a decisive figure who is trusted by his subordinates..."
"Being able to occupy a base area despite being abandoned by his superiors, collect funds through smuggling, black market transactions and other channels, and finally establish Dog Town, a criminal haven that is not interfered by the company and the police... This kind of ability and skill is not available to everyone.
It can be possible."
Although he was an outcast, he was able to become the "King of the Mountain" in Night City through his own efforts, save his troops, and now maintains good relations with major companies, dignitaries, celebrities and other high-ranking people in the city.
relation...
It can be seen that this person who is apparently a warlord is actually quite good in negotiation skills.
Yori Xuan crossed his arms and began to pace back and forth, thinking and echoing:
"The Arasaka Intelligence Department also thinks highly of him, and this person also has a very high reputation among his own unit, the Nether Dogs. The soldiers all admire his personal charm. If you want to target this person and make him an enemy,
The best option given by the intelligence services was assassination.”
Lin Mo rolled his eyes, put one hand on the table and looked at the silent Knight with a relaxed look, and asked with a smile:
"What does Ye's company think about this?"
"This problem has been around for a long time. The unification war was inevitable. Our strength was far behind military technology and Arasaka, and we were unable to interfere with this kind of action to dominate the mountain. But now, Dog Town has been transformed.
It’s completely changed beyond recognition, and even if this area is taken back, the various problems inside can’t be solved in a day or two,” Knight said.
"I understand, so you would rather focus on Night City than this chaotic place that is outside of order?" Lin Mo's expression was clear.
After all, even many field projects in Night City have not yet been resolved, so how can Ye's company be free to manage things in Dog Town?
"You need to set a priority when dealing with anything. Otherwise, when there are too many things, it will be difficult for you to do one thing well... Especially in Night City, all kinds of gang fights, murders, robberies, etc. happen every day.
You have to take care of everything, and you will only tire yourself out in the end." Knight said matter-of-factly.
"That's right." Lin Mo agreed.
After all, reality is not like games where the progress of time is at a standstill.
A lot of things happen in this city every day. If you don't go to the scene in time to deal with it, you will end up missing out on some unexpected opportunities, instead of "Hua Zi has been waiting for you at the Ember Club" like the final mission of the game.
Lai Xuan coughed a few times, drew Lin Mo's eyes to him, and asked him seriously:
"So Lin Mo, what do you think? Do you plan to deal with the warlord leader on a dark and windy night, or do you plan to negotiate with him through diplomacy?"
"Please, he and I have no conflict of interest, so why do we need to use knives or guns? Do you have any misunderstanding about me?" Lin Mo spread his hands helplessly and sighed:
"My plan here is to negotiate with him through the name of Kangtao Company. As long as he doesn't open his mouth like a lion, we can get the neural matrix without using a knife or a gun."
"A thing whose complete picture is unknown to him can be exchanged for actual company assistance benefits. Judging from his personality analysis model, he will not refuse your proposal." Knight nodded slightly, agreeing with Lin Mo.
statement.
As the leader of a force, a person who can sit in such a position is definitely not an ordinary person.
Hansen obviously still doesn't know what the so-called neural matrix is. At this time, Kangtao Company suddenly made a transaction request to him, and there was no way he could refuse.
Lin Mo turned his head and glanced at the display on the wall, walked to the control panel next to him and clicked a few times, then opened the 3D structure diagram of Dog Town.
"However, I am a little curious about the daily operation mode of Dog Town. What do people living there experience on a daily basis? Without the jurisdiction of the police and companies...will it really be a paradise for free people?" He looked at the display.
asked the screen.
Lai Xuan immediately introduced:
"The local armed forces there are mainly the Voodoo Gang and the Ghost Dog Force under Hansen, and there is nothing to say about the regional divisions. There are a lot of dilapidated and abandoned high-rise buildings in a palm-sized area. The only thing worth seeing is
The building is the hotel building called Sapphire Blue, which is also Hansen’s palace.”
"As for the life of ordinary people...hehe, it is still the same as before, but strictly speaking, it may be better than some areas in Night City. After all, such a small place is easy to manage. If the security is not good,
If it’s good, there won’t be so many people trying their best to get in.”
After all, it is an enclave without government jurisdiction, and the only way to increase the local population is through "immigration."
If it is not managed well, Dog Town will disappear in the passage of time sooner or later.
"Where is the middleman? Who is the local middleman with a good reputation?" Lin Mo asked casually.
He didn't forget that just a few days ago, V and Johnny both sneaked into Dog Town.
Those two guys would definitely not be too restless based on their peeing habits. With Rogge's "letter of introduction", a local middleman with some connections would definitely contact V.
Lai Xuan walked forward, came to Lin Mo, operated a few times on the control panel, and soon brought up the intermediary information on the display:
"There is only one person who is relatively well-connected. People on the road generally call him Mr. Hands. At present, this person is very mysterious. He hides deeply in Dog Town and often changes his facial features. Currently, the intelligence department does not have much information related to him.
material..."
"Do you still have his contact number?" Lin Mo keenly noticed a series of phone numbers listed on the display.
Since he doesn't go around Taipingzhou very much on weekdays, if you want to ask him which of the top middlemen in various major areas in the city he is not familiar with, it would definitely be Mr. Hands, who he has not had much contact with so far.
"If we can't get back this basic intelligence information, there will be no need for the Arasaka Intelligence Department." Yorinobu joked.
At this time, he turned his head and glanced at Lin Mo again, and was stunned.
I saw Lin Mo's eyes flashing with blue light at some point.
Are you in a hurry to make a call so soon...?
Lai Xuan shook his head helplessly and looked at each other with Knight. The two of them wisely left a secluded atmosphere and did not disturb Lin Mo's call.
After a while, the call was quickly connected.
"Hey, is this Mr. Lin? I woke up this morning and heard the birds chirping on the branches outside the window. I thought that I might encounter a happy event today. Now it seems that my happy event is coming. Mr. Lin came here specially.
Do you have anything to do with me?" A gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lin Mo was startled, and he didn't expect that Mr. Hanz actually left his phone number.
Although during the period when he returned to Night City, he did act openly and openly as Lin Mo, and most respectable people on the road have heard of his name more or less.
But he still never thought that even though it was his first call, Mr. Hands actually knew who he was in advance.
Now that everyone knew who he was, Lin Mo simply stopped wasting time on being polite and said straight to the point:
"I need your help here. Two of my friends went to Dog Town a few days ago. I want to know from you how they are doing now."
"Are these two friends... introduced by Roger?" Mr. Hands asked.
"Well, one of the women is named V."
"It turns out that they are friends of Mr. Lin...Okay, I will send you their itinerary for the past few days." Mr. Hands did not hesitate for a moment and directly agreed to the request.
This man is quite intelligent and efficient at work... Lin Mo was a little surprised.
Before he could say anything more, a message was immediately transmitted to his personal channel.
Lin Mo's eyes lit up and he curiously opened the messages on the channel.
Let me see what new jobs they have prepared for me.
