The familiar siren reached Tang Ji's ears, but this time it was not the patrol car he was familiar with, but a Chevrolet Emperor 720 heavy-duty police vehicle.
The total weight of this kind of car is as high as 4.6 tons, and the front and rear bumpers are equipped with barrier-breaking corners. Once the speed reaches 80 kilometers per hour, nothing in the city can stop it.
Tang Ji dried his hair calmly and packed away his belongings, especially the gifts for An Ran and Wu Qianying. This was Edward's home, and with the old man's respect, those guys wouldn't rush in and search.
Of course, the premise is that he can't hide inside.
Tang Ji knew what the corporate mercenaries were because he was currently in this profession, not to mention that he had a little feud with the security guards at Green Wave Lake.
In order to prevent those bastards from shooting each other when they met, Tang Ji planned to surrender in the safest way.
He threw away his bathrobe, walked out of the room naked, raised his hands in the air so that the driver of the Emperor 720 who had just turned the corner could see him clearly, and then lay down on the ground.
From the moment he walked out of the door, dense flash lights kept lighting up, and several drones even flew less than 20 centimeters in front of him to take close-up shots.
Tang Ji is a law enforcer himself and knows this stuff very well, and since the people of Green Wave Lake are wearing the skin of NCPD, they have to abide by the rules of the game, especially when the whole city's media is paying attention to this matter.
"I am Tang Ji, and now I surrender to the NCPD!" Tang Ji said to the camera before the law enforcers got out of the car.
"Hands up!" A total of twenty fully armed law enforcers rushed out from four Emperor 720s, equipped with long guns and short cannons.
"Hell!" the commander in charge of the arrest cursed, and they could only watch helplessly as Tang Ji completed the entire process of surrendering in front of the camera.
Green Wave Lake security and local gangs have reached a deal, and Tang Ji will be imprisoned in Night City Prison as a gift.
However, the NCPD is now severely divided. In addition to the armed security mobilized by Green Wave Lake Security, there is also an old-school law enforcement force that is mainly local people. They are completely uncooperative in the arrest of Tang Ji. Some people even privately provide Tang Ji with
help.
As a new faction that has suddenly emerged within the NCPD, the superhumans have the shadow of the Night City City Hall behind them. Their hatred of Tang Ji is almost as bad as that of the local gangs. If they had encountered Tang Ji first, those lawless guys would
He will definitely look for opportunities to kill the opponent directly.
"The target has surrendered! Attention! The target has surrendered!" the commander had to emphasize on the communicator: "Pay attention to the media lenses, ensure the safety of reporters, and seal off the scene!"
Naturally, the reporters came faster than them. There were more than thirty drones with various logos printed on them, hovering in the sky, and four or five live broadcast vehicles parked on the roadside lawn early. The reporters
Reluctant to let go of any scene.
As for why they came earlier than the NCPD, it was naturally because the address and time were provided by Tang Ji himself.
Tang Ji only provided his address and purpose, and the media immediately pounced on him like flies that had smelled flesh and blood.
Looking at the overall situation from the air, the NCPD law enforcers who appeared at the end looked more like the party that rushed into the encirclement.
"Excuse me, were you responsible for the serial murders that occurred in Europe before? Someone took the photos..."
"Why did you surrender? There are rumors that gangs in Night City are placing a bounty on you. What do you think of this?"
"Look here Tangji! Smile! Your photo will be on the front page of Night City Weekly!"
"Don..."
The law enforcers finally broke through the reporters' line of defense and put handcuffs on Tang Ji's hands.
"Be honest!" The handcuffed law enforcement officer said with a ferocious tone, but before he could say harsh words, the reporter put the microphone to his mouth.
"What is your law enforcement number? What is your name? Where will Tang Ji be sent after arresting him?"
"Who issued the arrest warrant? There are rumors that it was the prisoners in Night City Prison who issued the arrest warrant. Is this true?"
"Get out of the way! Don't hinder law enforcement!" The law enforcers picked up Tang Ji, pushed away the crowd and ran towards their cars. They couldn't adapt to this situation at all.
Rookie, Tang Ji said hello to the camera with a smile on his lips.
Ever since he heard that the bastards on the list had imprisoned themselves voluntarily, he had been thinking about how to get in and kill them all.
Unexpectedly, there was such a good thing, and the victims actually tried to get him in!
The law enforcer behind him wanted to push Tang Ji directly into the carriage, but Tang Ji was much stronger than he thought and remained motionless. Instead, the person who pushed him fell to the ground.
Bang!
Another law enforcer gave Tang Ji a gun butt, but all he got in exchange was a look of relief from Tang Ji.
He moved his neck and turned to look at the violent law enforcer: "You have to say please."
Bang! Bang!
Several law enforcers kept hitting Tang Ji with their rifle butts, but Tang Ji's tense muscles were like rubber and his eyes did not change.
Finally, one of the law enforcers couldn't help it and hit him hard on the forehead, leaving blood along his brow bone, but this scene was all captured by a swarm of drones.
The commander pressed the law enforcer's arm and said through gritted teeth: "Please get in the car!"
"You have to add the word sir." The smile on Tang Ji's lips made several former mercenaries who had done dark work tremble.
"Please get in the car, sir!" the commander said in a humiliating voice through his teeth.
"That's right, I won't hold you accountable this time. Don't forget to smile next time." Tang Ji walked into the carriage happily, not forgetting to say to these rookies: "Welcome to Night City!
"
The Emperor 720 has a huge compartment, which can accommodate four fully armed soldiers and carry additional equipment. Even if a Tangji is added, it is still spacious enough.
Bang!
The thick bulletproof car door was closed by the commander. Several law enforcers glanced at each other in tacit understanding and surrounded Tang Ji. Now no media cameras can capture them. It's time...
Before they could take action, Tang Ji stretched out his arm and used the power of his prosthetic limb to break the handcuffs. Before anyone could react, he kicked out and swept away the nearest law enforcer.
Then he reached out and pulled out the pistol that was strapped to the rookie's thigh diagonally across from him, smashed the bridge of his nose with the butt of the gun, and when he stopped, he hit the rookie behind him on the lower jaw with his elbow.
When the commander finally reacted and planned to fight back, Tang Ji's gun was already pressed against his chin.
Just as the driver and co-pilot wanted to turn around, Tang Ji shot and shattered the rearview mirror in the car: "Drive well and don't look around."
Tang Ji's prosthetic limb grabbed the commander's body armor and lifted him up with one hand. He took a step back and occupied a corner of the carriage, using the commander as a shield to block the front. The muzzle of his gun glanced at the faces of the three rookies.
"If I had fired just now, you would be dead by now." Tang Ji pushed the commander back and sat on a fixed seat in the carriage: "Next time, you won't be so lucky."
"you..."
"Shut up, I have the final say from now on." Tang Ji was not interested in these minions at all: "We can arrive at the law enforcement bureau safe and sound, or I can kill all of you, and then I will surrender somewhere else.
If you repeat this process, smart people will always appear, right?"
"Promise him! This bastard was caught by us on purpose!" The law enforcer whose nose had been smashed was raising his head and using a tissue to stop the bleeding: "Damn it! That lunatic wants to be put in that prison himself!"
"I know I'm an idiot! But don't I want to make the scene more beautiful?" The commander climbed up holding the car door, looked at Tang Ji's gun, and finally gave in: "Since you want to die, we won't stop you.
!”
"That's right." Tang Ji leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and rested his mind: "Find me some clothes, I don't want to be naked when I get out of the car."
In the end, one of the "coerced" law enforcement officers donated a pair of tactical pants. As for how he explained that he was wearing long johns under his body armor after getting off the car, he had to figure out his own solution.
The entire car maintained an atmosphere of silence as it drove into the gate of the Law Enforcement Bureau. Before getting out of the car, Tang Ji handed over his pistol and cooperated with a pair of handcuffs.
A law enforcer picked up the handcuffs that had been twisted off from the ground and asked the commander: "How do we explain this thing?"
"There is no need to report it. I will receive a new pair when I go on a mission next time. No one will check the inventory of handcuffs." Tang Ji kindly gave instructions to his junior.
"Thank you..." As soon as the law enforcer opened his mouth, he was pushed hard by the commander.
"Idiot!" The commander escorted Tang Ji out of the car, feeling that the entire team was being played by Tang Ji.
Returning here again touched Tang Ji's mind. He was familiar with every plant and tree here, but many things within the Law Enforcement Bureau had changed.
The one-to-one size poster of the star enforcer that had been standing at the door had been removed, which was good news for Fabinski. That poster looked too silly.
There was a sweet-looking girl behind the front desk, who was completely different from the previous female law enforcer who weighed over 130 kilograms.
This should have been done a long time ago, Tang Ji shook his head. Unfortunately, the bureau could not afford to pay extra wages to hire non-staff personnel before.
"Is this the famous law enforcer Tang?" A tall and thin man wearing gold-rimmed glasses stood a few meters away and stared at Tang Ji.
With his pointed chin, triangular eyes, and sparse hair meticulously styled into a middle parting, it was as shiny as if it had been licked by a dog. Tang Ji only took one look and felt that the fat man Adams was attractive compared to him.
The bespectacled man looked Tang Ji up and down, as if he was looking at goods: "Put him in Cell No. 1 first, and then send him to Night City Prison after the verdict comes out."
"That's right!" The man with glasses pointed at Tang Ji's prosthetic limb: "There is evidence that the suspect's prosthetic limb has exceeded the civilian scope. Find someone to dismantle it for him..."
"I'm afraid not, Manager Abir. My agent's prosthetic limb is an experimental prosthetic limb manufactured by the cutting-edge technology laboratory of the Lazarus Group." A lawyer who had been waiting in the law enforcement bureau for a long time suddenly stood next to Tang Ji and straightened his tie.
, holding a PDA with a flexible screen in his hand, taking a look at it from time to time.
"Who are you?" Manager Abiel frowned, and he smelled the same kind of scent on the other person.
"Bernard Kuhl, junior partner at KION International Law Firm." Bernard reached out and shook hands with Manager Abiel: "Sorry, before chatting with you, I need to be alone with my attorney.
Let’s chat for a while.”
Abiel stared at the two of them with his snake-like eyes for a while, then smiled: "Of course, you can use the conference room No. 2."
Naturally, he has many ways to prevent lawyer Bernard from being shut out and unable to perform his duties as a lawyer immediately, but as an industry insider, Abiel does not want to offend a legal hegemon like Kion International because of other people's affairs.
...
...
"Hello, Mr. Tang, I am the lawyer hired by Miss Wu to defend you." Bernard first took out a commission contract and placed it in front of Tang Ji: "Your authorization is also required here. When you sign
From now on, I will officially become your lawyer."
"The arrest warrant issued by the city government this time was very sudden and completely inconsistent with judicial procedures. I am fully confident that the court hearing can be postponed to two months later, giving us more time to clear our charges." Bernard.
De smiled heartily, showing eight shining teeth.
"I have watched your live broadcast, Mr. Tang. It is very exciting and exciting, but I have to say that it is too impulsive. It is too impulsive to leave video evidence when doing dirty work." Bernard shook his head: "
But fortunately, you have never shown your face. We can say that your voice is artificially synthesized, and your case in Europe is a trivial matter that we can ignore..."
"I want to go to prison with my prosthetic limb." Tang Ji hastily signed his name. He took a look at the other person's hourly salary, which was eight thousand federal dollars. Compared with him, the 'senior' talents in the prison were even more capable.
It's a low-income job.
"..." Bernard looked at Tang Ji helplessly. Tang Ji estimated that he would have to pay several hundred federal coins while he was in a daze...
"It seems there is a deal behind this that I don't know about." Bernard put away the contract and put on a formulaic smile: "The court has drafted a plea agreement. As long as you plead guilty, you can only serve three years in prison.
to six months.”
"I thought this was a trap before, but now it seems that hiring me was a complete mistake." Bernard spread his hands: "But since you are willing to spend money to hire me, I still have to play my own responsibilities, in addition to your
Apart from prosthetics, what else do you want? I can give you the exact time of your sentence to the nearest day."
"No more." Tang Ji shook his head: "Okay, if possible, please complete the process quickly and send me to prison as soon as possible."
"Okay, as you wish." Bernard felt that he had never fought such a strange case in his life; "I will go and communicate with the judge now. If everything goes well, you can have breakfast at Night City Prison tomorrow morning.
.”
Thank you very much, otherwise we can chat for a while longer. Apart from the breakfast there, I can't afford to eat anywhere else. Tang Ji waved to the lawyer, went out and was taken into Cell No. 1 by the law enforcers.
