Chapter 499: A short narrative afterwards

If we say that the previous explosion that echoed in the abandoned building was just a "small noise" when the construction site started.

So the loud noise that echoes throughout the Dog Town is undoubtedly the "big scene" that can only be seen when a building collapses in a construction site.

In fact, this description is indeed a good metaphor. The moment the missile fell completely, what appeared in Knight's eyes was a string of firelights rising into the sky.

The flames were mixed in the thick black smoke, using the building as its base and nourishment, as lush as a giant tree rising from the ground. Broken concrete and glass crystal residues splashed and fell around like rain, and the building shook with an ear-splitting sound.

A sour sound of pain.

The flames quickly spread to every floor of the building. It was obvious that the incoming missile was not an ordinary explosive warhead, but a specially treated incendiary warhead. Otherwise, a building with good fireproof materials would not be able to burn so easily.

stand up.

Suddenly, Lin Mo's words flashed through Knight's mind - the enemy had done so many stupid things just for "fun".

Perhaps Knight had some doubts about Lin Mo's words before, but now he has begun to trust Lin Mo's judgment.

Yes, if the New US White House and President Miles really had any special purpose, why did they achieve this step?

For the sake of a marginalized team, he did not hesitate to use the missile launcher deployed in Dog Town. Isn't this obviously a trap for his own side?

Knight is very aware of the current situation in Dog Town - the missile that originally attacked the president's plane was not Hansen's handiwork, but was fired by the Xinmei agents lurking in Dog Town who followed the order of the organization and deployed the launcher.

Due to the sudden incident, even if Hansen immediately ordered a search for the equipment that launched the missile, nothing was found in the end. The Xinmei agents who did this had long ago wiped out all the clues.

Moreover, even if the missile launcher was found, with only physical evidence and no witnesses, Hansen would not have enough reason to prove to the outside world that the device was not their own.

But things are different now. People from Xinmei actually chose this time to use a missile launcher in Dog Town in broad daylight. Isn't this inappropriate and putting a shit basin on their own heads?

Nowadays, investigation teams from various organizations and forces are watching the excitement in Dog Town, and various news media and radio stations are also pervasive. The Nether Dog Force has long been under the supervision of the public, and it is almost impossible to launch missiles in the open.

The third party force appeared in Dog Town and also launched powerful missiles, which was simply the best assist for Hansen.

Knight could already predict that Hansen would be grinning crookedly now. If he made such a big noise, he would definitely send the Ghost Dog troops to check the coordinates of the missile launcher.

Regardless of whether substantial evidence can be found in the end, Hansen has reason to prove his innocence.

This stupid operation of giving assists to the enemy for no reason, if it wasn't for "fun", Knight couldn't figure out why President Miles would do it.

But what good will this do to them?

Thousands of thoughts are running and calculating. Knight thinks that he has never thought about such a complicated question, but the answer to this question may be very simple, as simple as a question [1 1=?] that appeared in the college entrance examination.

The answer is obviously ready to come out, but you are not 100% sure at all.

"I kind of understand his concerns." Knight sighed, looked at the towering fire tree not far away and murmured to himself:

"But it's been so long, why haven't they come back yet..."

"What are you still looking at? Is there anything interesting about that collapsed building?"

A confused question suddenly came from behind, causing Knight's expression to freeze slightly.

He raised his eyebrows and turned around helplessly to look behind him.

Sure enough, the boy he was thinking about was standing in front of the car with a playful look on his face, one hand on the hood of the car, his clothes were stained with carbon black dust, and even his delicate face was dirty.

looks like a coal miner.

Behind the boy, all the members of Mann's team had been rescued. Each team member was lying on the ground in a mess, as if they had been brought here before they could react.

Currently, only the other two men who have also been implanted with Si'an Westan still maintain their dignity and can stand on the ground looking at the gradually destroyed building in shock, speechless for a while.

"Your reaction speed is quite fast." Knight smiled and said something he thought was nonsense.

The boy in front of him was his certified partner. His extraordinary talent in controlling speed components was recognized by him. How could the other party's reaction speed not be fast?

"How can we save people if we are not happy?" Lin Mo said in a brisk tone, walking leisurely to Knight with his hands in his pockets, and looked with him towards the slowly collapsing building not far away.

The dust was flying, the fire was still fierce, and an unpleasant smell began to fill the air. The flames chased all the combustibles in the building, like a beast chasing its prey to feed itself.

"It seems that the fire will be inexhaustible until dusk at least." Lin Mo's tone became calm and he inadvertently changed the subject: "Have you sensed the specific coordinates of the missile launcher?"

Knight nodded and said with emotion: "Just over there at the stadium, where the various forces' investigation teams park their vehicles and place debris, if they hadn't come forward on their own initiative, no one would have thought they hid the device there.

Farming... is just like what you said, very bold and very stupid."

"Well, Hansen should send someone over to investigate." Lin Mo didn't pay much attention and continued to ask:

"Did your body find any special traces in cyberspace?"

"Are there any data traces?" Knight lowered his head slightly, carefully reviewed the data information he had just obtained, and said with certainty:

"Unfortunately, no."

Night City's network architecture is almost entirely handled by Ye's Company, and he knows his own network data very well, and Dog Town is no exception.

If there were any abnormal data flow fluctuations, it would be almost impossible to hide it from him.

"It's just fine if it doesn't. It means that no other AI is currently involved in this dispute. The launch of the missile was not due to AI, but was artificially controlled." Lin Mo said.

Knight asked in surprise: "Do you suspect that this missile was launched by another AI deliberately controlling the device?"

"It's just a conjecture. According to Johnny, Spider Murphy is a hacker who is difficult to apply in ordinary people's way of thinking. Simply put, his way of thinking is quite unconventional. This kind of person is no exception to anything he does. Look,

It seems like a stupid move, but who can guarantee that it was not her hand?" Lin Mo said seriously.

"That makes sense." Nate nodded.

If Myers is the mastermind behind all the stupid things New America has done so far, then this president is too unqualified.

But if these bold and stupid actions were planned by AI, then it would not be surprising that the other side regards its agents as "consumables" and human lives as nothing.

"But I didn't find anything wrong. Spider Murphy and I are both AI consciousnesses. If she does anything, I am confident that I can detect it in time." Knight said.

Lin Mo sighed: "I hope so."

Today's battle and the incoming missile were all recorded in last night's simulation experience.

Because of this, he called Knight over, hoping that he could find some clues in cyberspace.

Now listening to what Knight said, he didn't find anything wrong... This undoubtedly means that the missile launch was man-made.

To be honest, Lin Mo didn't really believe that all the agents in the investigation team were idiots.

If these new and American agents who go out to perform missions are said to have a bunch of brainless idiots as their bosses, they can still barely explain the idiotic action plans they have adopted in recent days.

But people who can work under the leader cannot be all idiots. Even if the superiors gave a fatal order to bomb this building, why did the agents choose to launch missiles at the stadium?

Can't you make some changes? Just put on a little disguise.

"Damn it, those brats are so fucking awesome. Now that the situation is like this, they still dare to launch missiles. Have any of you got their mothers into bed? Otherwise, they will

To this extent?" Lin Mo's thoughts were interrupted by the voice coming from behind.

Looking back, I saw that Johnny Silverhand had finally recovered from his "motion sickness" state. After standing up, he looked at the building with flames rising into the sky. He was also shocked and confused.

"How are you having fun, Johnny?" Lin Mo asked with a smile.

"Haha, if the time could be turned back to a few days ago, I would never get involved in this matter." Johnny sneered and walked next to Lin Mo.

Knight wisely moved out of the way, and Johnny leaned on the vehicle.

He took out a lighter and a cigarette from his pocket, pressed the switch of the lighter, and a flame burst out of the small hole and was brought to his eyes, gradually overlapping with the burning building in the distance.

Then, he put the cigarette on the flame, as if the burning building lit the cigarette. The white smoke rising from the cigarette blended with the black fog in the distance.

He put the cigarette in his mouth with satisfaction.

"What a pity, boy, you don't smoke, so you can't enjoy this small joy after victory." Johnny Silverhand blew out the smoke and looked at Lin Mo with regret.

"Yes, I also want to have a body that is invulnerable to all poisons. In this case, I can smoke whatever I want." Lin Mo said pretending to be "sad", then put on an expression of sudden realization, and continued:

"I almost forgot that you are invulnerable to all poisons now. If I had known better, I wouldn't have taken you out. How can smoking cigarettes be exciting for you? It's better to smoke in that smoking building."

Johnny twitched the corner of his mouth, obviously a little annoyed by Lin Mo's rebuke.

However, after being together for so long, he had some understanding of Lin Mo's temperament, so he didn't react at all and just continued to smoke calmly.

"Let's talk about it. I asked you to stay in the combat team these days and follow David and others to fight against the new and American agents. Did you have any special physical conditions during the battle? If you have any hidden problems, please tell me quickly. Don't

It's embarrassing, otherwise it would be such a disappointment if he suddenly withered when it was time to do business." Lin Mo said with a strange smile.

"Go away, I'm in good health, not as bad as you said." Johnny glanced at Lin Mo with disgust.

As expected, nothing good comes from chatting with this guy. There are hidden thorns in his words, and he will poke you from time to time. It's really disgusting.

"I am worried about you. After all, it is still unknown whether your body can adapt to high-intensity battles. Have you forgotten the plan I mentioned before? The battles you will encounter by then will be inevitable. If you have problems now,

There is still time to improve." Lin Mo said seriously.

The reason why he deliberately targeted the agents dispatched by the New America Investigation Team was, on the one hand, to thwart the other party's plan, and on the other hand, to train the various members of Mann's team.

By the way, he also asked Johnny to get involved so that Johnny could adapt to the rhythm of the battle in advance.

Johnny and V were asked to travel together before, but with the great god V around, Johnny couldn't get into any real-life battles.

It's better now, let him warm up early, so that when it comes time to fight, he still doesn't know how capable he is.

"The experience is quite good. Although it is not as functional as my previous body in many cases, this body is still quite durable. It is still alive and kicking even after being hit by bullets. It is also quite powerful in combat. It is much stronger than I used to be."

Johnny thought for a while and finally answered honestly.

Lin Mo suddenly laughed and shouted helplessly:

"You used to be an antique more than fifty years ago, but now it's 2077. With so much technological advancement, how can you be worse than you were before?"

"Then are you satisfied now?" Johnny spread his hands and said nonchalantly: "My inability to be a good fighter makes you feel like a failure?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That's not true. Anyway, I don't expect your combat power to be of much use. When the day comes when the plan is launched, you will have to deal with the battle.

Just leave it to your teammates honestly, you can be more useful in other aspects." Lin Mo returned an encouraging look, patted Johnny on the shoulder again, and said, "Boy, I'm very optimistic about you."

appearance.

Maybe Johnny Silverhand is a good hand in combat, but I'm afraid it's just a good hand.

His only outstanding performance in the game was when he controlled V's body to defeat Adam Hammer head-on in the ending of the game.

There was even another NPC assisting him during this period...

So after thinking about it, plus the fact that Johnny Silverhand couldn't "possess" V now, Lin Mo felt that Johnny should just be a "mascot".

No one stipulates that rock boys must be good at fighting.

"Tch." With a look of disdain on his face, Johnny took the almost finished cigarette out of his mouth, stamped it out with his foot, and lazily walked away from Lin Mo.

Watching him leave, Lin Mo had no intention of staying. Instead, he waved and called David and Mann over.

"Performed well." Lin Mo smiled and concluded:

"Now you can go back and have a rest, which will make up for the unfinished vacation. You can also see what happens next on the TV news at home."

"Is this the end?" Mann said rather dissatisfied: "I haven't even had the pleasure of using that rocket launcher yet."

"There will be opportunities in the future." Lin Mo said: "By the way, I asked you to insert the Mewtwo recording chip. Did you forget the video recorded in advance?"

"Here." David next to him smiled and tapped his forehead with his finger.

"Well, remember to give me the chip before you leave. I can still use it." Lin Mo nodded.

Mann frowned and asked a little puzzled:

"You asked us to take the video because you wanted to preserve the video evidence for that guy Hansen?"

"No, this is just to record the process of getting to know each other between your Mann team and Hansen, the leader of Dog Town. It will also be convenient to explain the origin of your heavy firepower in the future... After all, we always have to give the audience a reasonable explanation." Lin

Mo said without any concealment.

"Record?"

The two people who still haven't learned the final plan from Lin Mo are confused.

What record? Is there anything worth recording about the process of their acquaintance with Hansen? They are not celebrities.

"You will know in the future. Now let's go home and have a good sleep." Lin Mo smiled gently:

"In the next few days, remember to watch more TV news at home."
