Chapter 565 The Situation in Night City
When the Lille trio arrived at the gate of Dog Town, the news that the Voodoo Gang was completely wiped out had also spread——
This means The situation in Taiping Prefecture will undergo some subtle changes.
There are many reasons why Taiping Prefecture has become a lawless place. The direct reason is the attack of the ghost dogs, but the fundamental reason why this place has remained dilapidated for a long time is the economic collapse. The Voodoo Gang took advantage of it and took control with other criminals. Local law and order.
Now the Voodoo Gang is gone.
This is naturally reminiscent of the Taiping Prefecture development plan.
Night City Civic Center, just now, the mayor’s office announced an important decision:
The original deputy mayor Holt abdicated due to illness, and the mayoral candidate Jefferson Pe Lares will take over his position as Deputy Mayor of Night City.
“The first thing is that after unremitting efforts, Mr. Peralez and I have reached a certain degree of reconciliation, mainly on policy.
Considering that he once served in Based on his performance on the council, I believe I should promote him to deputy mayor to replace my former assistant, Holt, who has been ill for a long time.
After an exciting night, his performance in work efficiency is still surprising. To be honest, I don't know where to find such a group of hard-working guys to clean up nuclear explosion sites. ”
This decision can be said to have shocked everyone who participated in and paid attention to the mayoral election:
Perales and Ryan are bitter enemies and will be elected in the next municipal election.
The political capital of the two is also very different. Perales, a good councilman, suddenly gave up his political capital and went to the mayor's office to attack Ryan? < br>
The lights flashed constantly at the press conference, and the media reporters in the audience were all in an uproar——
This happened so suddenly and unexpectedly that they didn't know what to ask and could only keep making confused sounds.
Perales and Ryan, who were in the spotlight, shook hands in front of the camera very friendly.
“It still feels weird.”
Lian smiled at the camera while squeezing out a sound from his throat.
Beside him, Peralez's expression was much calmer, which was slightly different from his previous style.
It seemed that because he had just come out of the brainwashing incident, he didn't even dare to make an expression, for fear of being indoctrinated.
“I feel strange too.”
After shaking hands, the two sat down on their seats, and Ryan continued to announce the next policy:
“Okay, considering that we The political struggle between us may have become too fierce. I think I should learn to let go of some power and let my old opponent have some room to show his strength. It turns out that he has done a good job
In this way. , I can focus on other things, other things that can make Night City more prosperous.”
Ryan looked at the manuscript in the vision of the prosthetic eye and paused for a moment:
This feeling is a bit strange, because on the one hand he is announcing an increase in wanted arrests, and on the other hand he is announcing that he will contract the next project. To the wanted subject's younger brother.
To be honest, most respectable people have tempers. He has never seen anyone like this.
Maybe this is the big brother who takes the lead.
“On behalf of Night City, I announce that the Taiping Prefecture development plan has been restarted.”
Before the reporters could hold themselves back, Ryan pressed down with one hand and quickly announced the following content:
"Taiping Prefecture will be re-incorporated under the control of the Night City Municipal District. We will introduce a new security team, composed of experienced We will quickly establish a series of temporary administrative measures to ensure that every citizen can receive timely help and support. , these facilities will gradually transition into permanent institutions to ensure that Taiping Prefecture returns to a normal urban management system.
We will invest heavily in resources and investments to improve infrastructure and public services to make this place even more than we once imagined. Live in paradise!
And, as security is established, we will find the main suspect in the Zero Point nuclear explosion incident.”
Ryan looked at each of the media who were already eager to try, as if he saw the company's trademarks, their armies, and their assets through their eyes.
". Let them pay for everything they have done. ." After Ryan finished speaking, he sighed secretly. At this time, Peralez, who was close at hand, also sent him a message:
[Peralez: The military technology people asked me if I knew anything. : The Voodoo Gang is gone. 】
[Ryan: Let them guess, first fill their mouths with orders. 】
The Voodoo Gang is gone, and the armed teams of several gangs entered Taiping Prefecture almost at the same time as the military technology special service teams. This is a bit too fast, and anyone will have daydreams.
These people are the professionals that Ryan calls them, and they are also the group of people who will become the overlords of Taiping Prefecture NPCD in the future.
While answering the media with a prepared response text library, Ryan received questions and queries from various companies.
He is more uneasy than before: First of all, Night City's biggest supporter, the Ye Group, which can never stand in the field of foreign companies, has been paralyzed, and has been proven to be a bigger thunder—— The Ye Group seems to be controlled by a rogue AI and is trying to control humans.
The weakening of the Ye Group will cause the economic value of Night City to drop sharply, leaving only its geographical advantages.
If Taiping Prefecture can really be developed by Lille, then there is hope that the missing economic value will be made up, and there is even hope of replacing the Ye Group and pulling out this big thunder.
But those are things for the future, and the most urgent thing right now is another thing:
He replaced Holt, which means that if he still wants to rely on Arasaka's power, You must contact the arrogant Arasaka Company in person, or be alienated.
The checks and balances between Arasaka Corporation and military technology have been broken, and the city’s safety factor has dropped significantly——
This is not security in the sense of public security, but security in the strategic sense, here It is the last free state in North America and the last gap in the map of the new United States.
As for Peralez, the support he can get from military technology has always been a benefit of the "balance" created by Ryan. Now that this balance is out of order, Peralez can only deceive the company for a while at best. But if the fundamental problem is not solved, problems will arise sooner or later.
Military Technology is only afraid of Arasaka and does not launch an attack, but if it wants to keep Arasaka, it must give them enough benefits.
Hoot used to be a good target, but his contact with Arasaka He became Arasaka's dog. In Ryan's mind, this was because Arasaka only needed dogs. The better Holt did, the more he became like a dog.
What about him? He also wants to be Arasaka's dog?
When the aircraft carrier docked, Arasaka would not believe anything about military technology and would exercise restraint. But once the aircraft carrier left, everything was not so easy to say.
So.
Burger King, what solution can you come up with?
16 hours after the zero-point nuclear explosion.
The locals in Taiping Prefecture all saw the two explosions at the Bati Hotel, the comings and goings of the Animal Gang, and then the comings and goings of military technology.
The scale of entry and exit of military technology was quite small. One vehicle, a few drones, and two or three staff members left the scene after finishing the work.
The Voodoo Gang's lair is stabbed, and people begin to realize something is wrong.
If the nuclear explosion does not affect the local order, it will only be scary; but if the voodoo gang disappears, the order will change.
The destructive power brought about by a change in order is always more lasting and cruel than one or two explosions.
So people hid in their homes, and ushered in a large convoy of Mackinacs that rampaged recklessly -
Nearly all the strongholds that had been rumored and apparently belonged to the Voodoo Gang were occupied and cleared.
The action is quick and direct.
Taipingzhou has made a substitution.
