The Creators: From Night City

Page 424

Having received assistance from [Anti-Entropy] several times, the 'Orphan Gang' has long since become a semi-official, semi-charitable organization. As its leader, 'Slippery' has also fulfilled his wish, with most of the orphans wandering the streets of Night City under his jurisdiction.

In fact, what he did was indeed better than what the welfare home did; it was more humane.

"Come on, you want me to do something for you? You even have to resort to flashbacks. You're still as 'pragmatic' as ever."

The torrential rain poured down on Jiang Bing, but it couldn't soak him at all; it could only slide futilely to the ground.

“Mr. Sabur, you are truly insightful.” The sly one showed no embarrassment at having his purpose exposed.

Applying through a 'domain' involves following company procedures and handling official business; it's nowhere near as clean, efficient, and effective as doing things privately like this.

The 'slippery' guy isn't stupid; he knows exactly how to do things better.

Moreover, he was quite certain that Jiang Bing was definitely interested in this matter.

"The reason I did this is simply because this matter can only be handled by the Masked Demon; it's not suitable for [Anti-Entropy] to do it." Despite this, 'Slippery' still managed to justify his actions with a sentence.

"Stop keeping me in suspense, just tell me."

"Another child has recently gone missing."

Jiang Bing frowned slightly. He wondered if it was his imagination or just his eyes playing tricks on him, but he felt the raindrops around him suddenly freeze for a moment.

"Did the cleaners do it?"

Unexpectedly, the 'slippery' shook his head.

"Scavengers are now rarer than monks in Night City; it was done by other forces."

"Gang?"

"Officials"

Jiang Bing looked at the 'slippery' man with a serious expression and suddenly laughed.

"That official?"

"The Commissioner of the Immigration Review Service, Robles Wellman." The slippery man said the name with absolute certainty.

Jiang Bing tapped his cane, and the howling wind and rain miraculously weakened.

"So sure?"

The phrase "It's definitely him" was uttered through gritted teeth by the sly one.

"It seems there's some history between you two."

"Your enemy?"

The 'slippery' remained silent.

When did this happen?

"Actually, I only just found out about him; otherwise, how could he have lived peacefully until now?"

"You should know that recently [Anti-Entropy] has been making great efforts to reform the political environment of Night City. At this juncture, all you need to do is expose the filth under his ass, and I believe you will be able to get your revenge as you wish."

"I want to kill this beast with my own hands!"

The usually well-mannered young man spoke these words through gritted teeth.

"It's rare for you to come to me for help." Jiang Bing was a sentimental person, and he naturally couldn't ignore the 'slippery' request.

Of course, he hadn't been active for a long time, and his body was practically rusty, so this was a good opportunity for him to get some exercise.

"Where shall we begin?" Jiang Bing asked.

He believed that, given the other party's intelligence, they must have gathered the relevant intelligence and information well in advance.

"Red Lips Passion"

The word "slippery" revealed a place name, causing Jiang Bing to frown slightly.

"You know this is an adult dance hall, right?"

"certainly"

"So Robles Wellman is also the king of Night City dances," Jiang Bing joked.

“He’s a complete scumbag,” 'Slippery' retorted.

"He didn't go there to dance; he went there to get money."

"Many of the dancers in this dance hall are illegal immigrants. He smuggled them into the city using his position. He supplies the owner with dancers and introduces them to the dance hall. The dance hall and the dancers give him a commission."

Jiang Bing was not surprised by the slippery answer.

"How did you know?"

“There was a Guatemalan girl, still a minor, who came here with her cousin’s men, thinking she could make a lot of money. Instead, she was tricked into signing a bunch of contracts and ended up with a mountain of debt. No matter how hard she worked, she couldn’t pay it off, so she had to escape and ended up on the streets. She was taken in by the ‘Orphan Gang’.”

Jiang Bing, who had initially been in a playful mood, not only stood up straight.

Sneaking people into the city to work illegally is not the same as abducting women into prostitution.

This requires a strong counterattack.

Chapter 864 Red Lips and Passion

'Red Lips Passion' is only considered a mid-range nightclub in Night City at best, but its retro business model has managed to keep it afloat in the fiercely competitive sex industry.

The two people hadn't bought tickets at all, but the gate at the entrance seemed to recognize them, opening automatically as soon as they arrived and letting them in.

'chaos'

This was their first impression.

The deafening sound waves, mixed with the screams, groans, and shouts of the revelers, painted the air with a lewd hue.

Of course, all of this was under the protection of darkness.

The two people's second impression.

The operators, well-versed in human nature, deliberately dimmed most of the lights in the dance hall. Apart from the dim red ambient lights around the booths, the dance floor was filled with only a few scattered lights with extremely low visibility, which only made the atmosphere more ambiguous.

In this ambiguous environment, people's 'sense of stealing' is more likely to be aroused.

The dancers wear revealing costumes that barely cover their bodies, allowing them to have close, face-to-face, and even direct, inappropriate contact with guests on the dance floor.

The entire dance floor resembled a large-scale orgy.

"These days, it's really rare to see people bringing their kids to dance halls."

A scantily clad dancer huddled in a corner, muttering to her companion, unaware that Jiang Bing had overheard her every word.

"The person is upstairs."

Jiang Bing found a bar counter, casually ordered two glasses of horse urine, and said to the 'slippery guy' who was struggling to climb onto the bar stool.

Although he wasn't a professional hacker, the entire nightclub's security system clearly couldn't stop him from spying.

Before the two even entered the room, all the cameras, computer mainframes, servers, and security systems in the entire "Red Lips Passion" had already been transferred to Jiang's name.

"What do you want to do? Shoot him dead, stab him, or roast his brains?"

"Smash his pig brains." 'Slippery' gripped the 'Uni-President' cigarettes in his pocket tightly.

"But before that, we must find out where he took all those missing children."

The loud, energetic music couldn't drown out the noise produced by a couple moving rhythmically to the rhythm of their movements next to the bar.

The place was so decayed that Jiang Bing frowned.

The two got up and prepared to go upstairs.

Compared to his days of fighting and killing as the 'Masked Demon,' Jiang Bing now handles matters with an air of elegance.

All the surveillance cameras seemed blind, watching the two walk by below without moving an eye, and all the sensors were collectively silent, as if they had suddenly realized that silence is a virtue.

The only people we need to deal with are a few guards.

The person guarding the stairs was a member of the animal gang, a big, burly, and strong man who looked like someone you definitely didn't want to mess with.

Since Taiping Prefecture was liberated, the Vortex Gang was wiped out, the Cleaners were completely wiped out, and the remaining members of the Voodoo Gang were forced to go underground, the Animal Gang is actually doing much better than before.

After all, their main daily routine is to provide security for others, which is still within the tolerance range of [Reverse Entropy] compared to the three gangs mentioned above.

Furthermore, with their scattered distribution throughout the city and vast bases, they seemed poised to expand and grow stronger, aiming to create new glories.

Unfortunately, the downfall of the Tiger Claw Gang forced these reckless brutes, who were all brains and no brains, to face reality once again.

The restless atmosphere within the entire gang was instantly cleared up, and even their usually irritable words and actions became much more restrained.

"No entry allowed."

The animal gang member reached out to block Jiang Bing, but was grabbed by the neck by the other party. The 300-plus pounds of weight was as if it were nothing, and Jiang Bing carried him upstairs with one hand.

The whole process was as smooth as squeezing out an enema or applying Vaseline, without causing the slightest ripple.

Immediately afterwards, the burly man's body glided lightly across a distance of more than ten meters, and he embraced another bodyguard at the office door. They rolled around on the ground and both fell into a sweet dream.

The encrypted office door obediently slid open to one side, welcoming the two inside.

Inside the office, two criminals engaged in a dirty deal were caught red-handed.

"cash?"

On the table in front of Robles Wilman lay a thick stack of euros in cash, which looked particularly striking under the light.

"I didn't expect you to be so old-fashioned," Jiang Bing praised.

Who are you?!

Before the owner of 'Red Lips Passion' could even speak, Robles Welman became extremely agitated.

"Fringe Walkers? What, you're being asked to kill someone right now? Aren't you afraid of Anti-Entropy coming after you at this critical juncture?"

At this time when [Anti-Entropy] is carrying out a major crackdown on misconduct, the marginalized individuals have indeed become much more stable. At the very least, the improvement of the judicial system has made many marginalized individuals more cautious when committing murder.

【Reverse Entropy】is not a useless NCPD; they are truly willing to investigate cases and are truly willing to kill those they find.

Westbrook is currently the latest focus of [Reverse Entropy], so the shop owner has his reasons for daring to make such a threat.

After all, that's what the middleman told him when he asked for help a few days ago.

Until a revolver was pressed against the other person's forehead.

The subsequent threatening remarks came to an abrupt end.

"Move over and sit down," Jiang Bing said, swinging his gun to shoo the other man away.

"Do you need my help with the rest?" Jiang Bing asked kindly, worried that the 'slippery' guy might lack experience.

His response was the ashtray the other person was holding high.

Few of the people who can survive on the streets of Night City are simple. 'Slippery' is ruthless, unlike a child. Each hard ashtray strike lands squarely on the opponent's forehead. In just two or three blows, Robles Wellman was crying and begging for mercy on his knees.

"Tell me, where did you take those children you arrested at the Coronado farm a week ago?"

Blood streamed down his forehead and face, making Robles Wehrman look like a lamb to the slaughter.

"They've all been deported..."

His response was a violent pounding from the 'slippery'.

It's no exaggeration to say that Jiang Bing even felt that the other party had no intention of using torture at all, and that they were just aiming to kill him outright from the start.

"Tell the truth, don't insult my intelligence."

"real……"

Without hesitation, the 'slippery' grabbed the ashtray and struck a few more times.

Robles Wheman finally gave in.

There's a saying that the ruthless fear the stubborn, the stubborn fear the reckless, and the reckless fear the young. It's because children don't know their own strength and are truly willing to kill.

"Sold, sold, I sold it!"

Just before the chipped ashtray reached his forehead again, Robles Wehrman finally couldn't help but scream out the truth.

Despite having anticipated it, 'Slippery' still gritted his teeth angrily.

"Who did you sell it to?"

"Weil Financial Management Company!"
