Hearing this name, Ringo didn't have a big reaction.
Because before Russell took her here, he never told Ringo who they were here to see or what they were going to do.
Russell's heart sank, and he secretly thought that it was indeed the case.
But he didn't feel panicked or overwhelmed by it.
——It would be better to say that after meeting the two synths last night, Russell had already thought of this possibility.
At that time, he had a premonition in his heart: he would probably not be able to see the dust gap tomorrow.
The entire conversation between Russell and the two synthetics was under the surveillance of No. 44 and also under the surveillance of the hotel. No matter who the force that wanted to kill Russell before was, they would definitely After learning this information, I immediately realized something was wrong.
It is unreliable to stop Russell through assassination... Regardless of Chairman Sal's attitude, Russell and Ringo alone may not be able to solve it easily. And if the matter gets bigger and the dragon is brought back , that would be a lose-lose situation.
Then, the decision to solve the problem from the other end is predictable.
It's just that Russell didn't expect... that they would be so radical and do so brilliantly.
He originally thought that Chen Gap would suddenly receive a business trip and stay away, or he would be attacked and seriously injured and comatose and hospitalized. As long as Russell's mouth was blocked within a few days of arriving at Tongshen Island, it would be enough. Anyway, Russell will not stay here for a long time... After all, he was only invited to solve the problem of the synthetic human rebellion. In other words, when the problem of the synthetic human rebellion is solved, Russell, the "foreigner," will The "Island Hero" should be driven away.
——But they didn't even give Russell any room to use any means, but directly killed Dust Gap.
This is a scientist specially invited from other Sky Islands with private technology!
Tongshen Island paid a heavy price just to invite Chen Gap - mainly the "electronic father" who came with Chen Gap.
...and now, he cuts it off as soon as he says it, without any hesitation?
Russell checked the personal information sent to him by the Shushu Executive Department and confirmed that the person who died inside was the dust gap.
He couldn't help but ask: "Are you sure he is dead?
"If we get his brain or something, can we still save it? Or, can we be sure that the deceased is Chen Gap and not another substitute?"
"I think it's hard."
The rat man shook his head with an ugly expression: "Those were eight shots...two of them specifically hit the back of the head. Judging from the burn marks, one of them was shot at close range. In other words, someone deliberately hit the back of the head. Two additional shots were fired."
——That should be to prevent Russell from retrieving memories.
Happy Island has mature memory retrieval technology. As long as the head within two hours of death is sent to the Tianen Group branch on Tongshen Island, a considerable amount of memories can be extracted from it.
but……
"Two shots? Were they both shot at close range?"
Russell keenly captured a strange detail.
Aiming at the back of the head, is it necessary to shoot twice?
"Oh, there is indeed a big doubt here!"
The middle-aged executive nodded, looking up at Russell with admiration and approval: "Because these two bullets came from two different guns.
"In other words, two guns were re-fired once."
"Can you see the order?"
Russell asked: "How many shots were fired from the two guns, and in what order? Where were the fatal injuries, and how many bullets were fired after death?"
Listening to Russell's detailed question, the rat man was thoughtful.
He suddenly asked: "Is Mr. Dust Gap your friend?"
"He and I are both from Happy Island."
Russell was vague, but his words sounded like acquiescence.
The executive member was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help showing a look of pity: "Then... you have my condolences and acquiesce.
"It's too troublesome for me to talk about it, and it's easy to confuse the details. Your authority allows you to enter the scene to collect clues...otherwise, should I just pass the bullet mark analysis software to you?"
"May I?"
"Ah, no problem. Besides, this should be a must-have for members of the enforcement department who investigate gun cases, right? We will assess the performance of this software before joining here."
Rat Man smiled, his face full of deliberate flattery, but Russell keenly captured more complex emotions: "It must be because your status is too high and you never have to work on the front lines. In other places,
Island, this software should have become popular... some cyber detectives also have cracked versions."
"That's no wonder."
Russell smiled gently and didn't care about the somewhat shady words: "After all, guns are strictly prohibited on Happy Island, and there are very few shooting cases on weekdays. Basically, they are directly linked to the crimes of illegal psychics...
…Anyone who can hold a gun is either a mercenary or an illegal psyker.
"And we have very advanced surveillance equipment. Although it is not as good as Sogo Island in that it can cover all areas of Sky Island except the black area, basically any incident that occurs on the street can be directly photographed at the scene. As for the case of armed home invasion...
...In the six months since I joined the company, the number seems to be zero.
"In our Happy Island, simple shooting cases are extremely rare. When I was in college, I learned how to use this software. But this software is controlled over there... There is only one very small one, only
A department of four people is dedicated to conducting bullet scar analysis. And they are not on the front line... They can complete the initial analysis just by relying on video and artificial intelligence, and they only need to sit in the office."
"...That's pretty good."
Only then did the middle-aged man realize that he had misunderstood Russell because of the different customs of each island.
While feeling guilty, there was also a look of unabashed envy on his face: "Then your life must be very safe and very beautiful."
After hearing this, Russell's mind immediately thought of the bombs deployed by the Veil of Ignorance.
The directors of the head office personally placed bombs in large shopping malls and downtown areas once a month; as well as the bombs that were installed on subway trains when Tiansheng became famous; and the bombs that the father of the inferior was planning to distribute to Xiacheng District.
Poison chips that will gradually weaken after being used once; directors transform and train their own killers to assassinate company executives who disobey them. Even Delphinium, the head of the executive department, was once sniped in public...
…
Companies in the business war hire each other's own mercenary groups to engage in auto-chess-like duels with firearms and psychic powers in the middle of the night every night; after the angel's bombing is over, they can fill a street, adding up to more than ten tons.
Three trucks were piled with corpses and were not even finished; the current "hero" used bombs to hold more than 2,000 innocent people hostage, just to destroy the reputation of another hero...
Coupled with the fact that the per capita crime rate in Uptown District has skyrocketed to 5%, the number of "refugees" in Lower Town has begun to skyrocket, almost doubling from half a year ago; the most trusted hero of the people in Uptown District, "Ultramarine",
Even the "godfather", the leader of Fuji Society, the largest criminal organization in Xiacheng District...
Thinking of this, Russell nodded sincerely, and said insincerely but seriously: "That's true. Our Happy Island is still very safe."
