The world can be loaded and reset, much like a stand-alone game that can be archived.
Wang Xu racked his brains. If this was a game world, what game would be set in Liberty City, with gangs as the main storyline, and could be loaded and restarted?
Payday, Grand Theft Auto, The Godfather series, Saints Row, or true crime Liberty City.
Wang Xu is not a game expert. Based on the current clues, he still cannot determine what the name of the game would be if this were a game world.
However, it is not without gain. Each game has its own main plot and branch plots, and the protagonist and supporting characters are also indispensable.
The value of their existence is to cause trouble. As long as they find the major events that happened on June 10th, I believe they will be able to find clues.
"Let me think about who is the most well-informed. The police, tabloid reporters, and intelligence dealers who buy and sell information. Yes, these are the people. Where to start? Tabloid reporters who are greedy for money should be easily bribed, right?"
Wang Xu opened the shuttle door, first sent Arnold back to modern times, and then left the hotel building and went straight to the newspaper office.
Liberty City is a chaotic place, but this cannot cover up its prosperity. There are countless small newspapers here that are shady.
Looking at the map of Liberty City downloaded from the Internet, Liberty City is composed of three main islands, connected by cross-sea bridges, and divided into three parts: Upper North District, Left East District, and Right South District.
Wang Xu looked at his location. He was in the central area of Younan District. Walking two kilometers south from here, there was a newspaper called Liberty City Community Newspaper.
Taking back his cell phone, Wang Xu did not call a taxi, but just walked to the newspaper office.
Liberty City Community Newspaper is an inconspicuous small newspaper. It does not have its own building, but only rents an office building on the first floor.
"Hello, this is Liberty City Community Newspaper. Do you need any help?"
Take the elevator straight to the eighth floor, and there is a reception counter directly opposite the elevator door.
A little girl with blond hair and blue eyes sat lazily on a chair and raised her head and asked Wang Xu.
"I am a friend of your manager. May I ask where his office is? I have something to do with him." Wang Xu lay on the counter and spoke calmly.
When the little girl heard that she was the manager's friend, she didn't think too much. She pointed to the corridor and said, "Go straight ahead. This is the innermost room."
"Thank you!" Wang Xu waved goodbye. A small newspaper office also has the advantages of a small newspaper office. At least it is not like a big newspaper office where you have to make an appointment in advance if you want to see the manager.
On the way to the manager's office, Wang Xu looked at the layout here.
There is a corridor in the middle, with offices separated by transparent glass on both sides. There are not many people working here, only about six or seven people.
It seems that this newspaper called Liberty City Community Newspaper is really small enough that it may not even have enough people for three interview teams.
"Click"
Wang Xu opened the door to the manager's room, walked in without waiting for an invitation, and closed the door behind him.
The newspaper manager is a middle-aged man, wearing a gray suit, bald, and a little fat.
Seeing someone breaking in, the manager raised his head dissatisfied, looked Wang Xu up and down, and asked, "Who are you?"
"A person looking for help." Wang Xu pulled out a chair and sat on it, took out a stack of U.S. dollars from his pocket, and said, "Did anything big happen on June 10th? Tell me, this stack of bills is you.
of."
"What do you mean, you were sent by another newspaper?" The manager's eyes were filled with doubts. Big newspapers buy news from small newspapers. This happens all the time in the industry.
Especially some exclusive news can be sold for sky-high prices. However, Liberty City Community Newspaper is very small, so this is the first time we have encountered this kind of thing.
"You can understand it this way, here is fifty thousand US dollars. I want to know all the big events that happened in Liberty City today." Wang Xu pushed the banknote forward and signaled to the manager that he could speak.
The newspaper manager glanced at the U.S. dollars on the table. After hesitating for a moment, he opened the desk drawer and took out a stack of documents.
Wang Xu took the documents and opened them one by one. There were all sorts of things on them, including scandal news about politicians, notices about missing cats posted by old ladies, and trivial life events such as which house was on fire or which house was stolen.
Wang Xu flipped through the pages very quickly. The big events couldn't be these trivial matters. The old lady's cat search notice and the politician's scandal were the first to be excluded by him.
Ten minutes later, he read the document from beginning to end, and there were a total of three valuable messages.
The Black Truth Society made a strong attack and fought with the Irish Brotherhood to seize control of three streets.
Arsonists held a party in Nancheng District, and more than 20 cars were burned. The police dispatched more than a hundred police officers to exchange fire with them in the suburbs of Nancheng. More than ten criminals were killed on the spot.
The last one was a gathering of high-level members of the Triad Society. The specific content was not disclosed, but photos taken at the scene showed that hundreds of young men in black suits gathered outside the hotel, with hundreds of black Mercedes-Benz cars parked around them. The style was comparable to
Visits from foreign heads of state.
"At seven o'clock in the morning, gangs fight in the North District. At ten o'clock in the morning, the arsonists in South City hold a big carnival. At two o'clock in the afternoon, high-level triad officials meet."
Looking at the three major events that happened today, Wang Xu could not find which one was the major event that the protagonist participated in.
But it doesn't matter. He can come back tomorrow morning, and then the time will be reset to June 10 again, and these events will happen again.
As long as he comes here early, he can personally participate in these events before they happen, and thus analyze who is the protagonist and why the world is constantly being reset.
"Thank you for the information. Let me show you something."
Wang Xu put on his sunglasses, took out the memory eraser from his pocket, and pressed the button on the newspaper manager.
Uh-huh!!!
A red light flashed, and the newspaper manager's memory within ten minutes had been erased.
After doing all this, Wang Xu put the money on the table back into his pocket and said softly: "No one has been here. You just slept on the table for about ten minutes."
After saying this, Wang Xu pushed open the door and left, clearing the memories of the newspaper employees along the way.
Why should these people's memories be cleared and the money given to the manager be taken away? Because Wang Xu has another idea to prove, and that idea requires money, and he is too lazy to go back and get the money.
half an hour later
"Welcome to the Jungle Bird Weapons Store, we have the best service, the most comprehensive weapons, and the lowest prices."
Wang Xu took the money and came to a weapons store, where the firearms were displayed on the shelves for sale at will like cabbage.
The idea that Wang Xu wants to prove is very simple. The world can be constantly reset, so will the items he took away still appear after the reset?
This question is very interesting. If the things that were taken away will still appear in this world, it will be equivalent to having an inexhaustible energy world.
If the items taken away will not reappear after reset, Wang Xu can also make an assumption that foreign rules can suppress local rules, and this world is more useless than he thought.
"I have fifty thousand US dollars here, all of which will be used to buy weapons. Please help me choose some good products." Wang Xu pressed the money on the counter, indicating that the shop owner could make the decision himself.
The store owner was a young man wearing a baseball cap. He nodded cheerfully and turned around to take weapons from the shelf.
A few minutes later, the shopping cart was filled with various types of pistols, submachine guns, and bullets of different specifications.
Wang Xu's eyes scanned the shelves, which kind of pistol was taken from which shelf, and where it was located, all of which were recorded in his heart.
And before leaving, Wang Xu secretly took a Chinese knot hanging on the counter from the cashier.
I believe that even if it can be supplemented with firearms, it is impossible to supplement this slightly faded Chinese knot with exactly the same one.
