The Night City Maglev Rail System is the largest infrastructure project on the continent. Construction was supervised by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and was completed in 2008. Subsequently, its ownership was transferred to Planetary Transportation Co., Ltd. With advanced electric levitation technology, the maglev train shuttles at high speed on tunnels and surface tracks, providing a comfortable and fast means of intercity transportation for Night City.

Its destinations include Kansas City, St. Louis, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C. Unfortunately, this new era of mobility has not been sustained. The social unrest and armed conflict caused by the Fourth Corporate War also brought an economic crisis and quickly brought the entire system to a halt. The now defunct and abandoned tunnel has become a stronghold for homeless people and gangs of all kinds.

But just recently, the Night Company, which aims to revitalize the maglev system, has started repair work, and has now resumed basic operation, at least inside Night City.

After saying goodbye to Rhaenys, Alan took the maglev train from Heywood to Night City University near the center of Night City, in Night City, the education level of the school is uneven, the highest level is the Arasaka Academy, which belongs to the aristocratic school, most of the students in it will enter the large company after graduation, and some people can even directly join the Arasaka company and become a high-paid family.

However, Night City University, where Alan stays, is not a high-end institution, but it can also be ranked in the top 10 in Night City, and those with excellent grades will choose to enter some high-tech companies such as Zeta Technology, Winter Moon Electronics, Knight Company, etc.

This afternoon, Alan has an exam on electronic invasion, which can only be regarded as a piece of cake for a hacker genius like Alan, as long as he wants, he can even directly hack into the school's management system and rewrite his own grades. However, Alan has no interest in using his talents and skills in such a boring place, and Alan plans to finish the exam in ten minutes and go to Night City's Hawker Center Cargo Port to pick up some treasures, which is the black market that the scavengers run in the North End. Vendors display their wares in dilapidated second-hand boxes, most of which are smuggled in.

As planned, Alan arrived at the school exam room early, but he didn't find Jason's kid, and he thought to himself, "This kid won't be late again, just be on the safe side, send him a message to remind him." ”

About ten minutes later, the exam began, Alan put on the special equipment for the exam, entered the exam interface, the question was very simple, Alan just finished the exam with a cup of tea. After taking off the device, Alan glanced around, everyone was still in the middle of the exam, but Jason's seat was still empty. "What the hell is this kid doing?" Alan dialed his phone to find out.

"Drip-drip-drip---------------" This kid actually hung up!

Alan didn't panic, and turned on the tracking and positioning program, which was a small tracking program left over from the experiment on Jason when Alan was researching positioning technology a long time ago, and he didn't expect it to come in handy.

Following the location, Alan followed Jason's movements, but strangely, Jason left the cafeteria and did not follow the usual route to the school, but came to the Lijing District, which was the poorest place in Heywood, and had endured the violence of the gang. The Six Street Gang also controls a lot of territory, and it belongs to a small and uneven neighborhood. "What the hell is this kid doing?" Alan didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly set off and took the train back to Heywood. After about half an hour, Alan followed Jason's location to the area, the streets were deserted, the walls of dilapidated buildings were covered in graffiti, and the huge buildings and dilapidated apartments seemed to have been abandoned. While there are still people living here, I've always had the feeling that this neighborhood of Night City is dying slowly and painfully.

Here, a group of veterans of the Fourth Corporate War, fed up with the NCPD's long-standing inaction, set out to form the Six Street Gang, which is dedicated to defending the people of the Scenic Area. But now it seems that their manipulation of the law and the slogan of "bringing justice to the city" do not stand up to scrutiny at all, but rather like an excuse for their own convenience.

They can do whatever it takes to achieve their goals: robbery, extortion, arms trafficking, vehicle theft. Although their base camp is in the valley of Santo Doyino, there are also Six Street Gang garages and bases of operations elsewhere in the city.

Alan cautiously searched for Jason's traces here, and the signal showed that Jason was in the large warehouse in front of him, and it was still underground, but there was some kind of signal jamming device in the warehouse, which made it difficult for Alan to accurately locate Jason's location. "Looks like I'll have to go in person."

There is only one gate in the warehouse from the outside, but there are two members of the Six Street Gang at the door, looking at the Copper Spotted Snake assault rifle in their hands, this mass-produced assault rifle, there are no amazing surprises or genius designs, but many people think that the reliable lethality itself is a very valuable quality.

It's very obvious, they won't let Alan in so easily.

"Since I can't go through the door, I can only find another way." Saying that, Alan quickly hacked into the building blueprint system of the Lijing area, according to the blueprint, this warehouse was originally a car renovation workshop, and there should be a back door at the back of the warehouse.

According to the blueprint, Alan came to the back of the warehouse, and found something similar to a door here, but this door has fallen into disrepair, the electronic lock on the door has accumulated a thick layer of dust, and the gate itself is also covered with vines, which is generally difficult for ordinary people to notice.

Alan wiped the debris on the door with five times divided by two, "Okay, let me see if this broken door can be opened," wiped the thick ash on the electronic lock, and Alan put the data cable on his hand and inserted it into the entrance of the electronic lock.

Alan smiled slightly; "It's okay, the broken lock can still be used, but the security protection of more than ten years ago is like a piece of tissue paper now."

"Didi --- Ka"

Alan slipped into the warehouse, it was very empty, only one or two scrapped cars, but there was a Villefort Columbus V340-F cargo car, this car was supposed to be outside the Six Street Gang, the back door was open, and there was a member of the Six Street Gang bending over to pack something.

Like an electronic ghost, Alan scanned the man with his prosthetic eye and then used a simple system reset attack on him, which would not kill him, but would have quieted him down for a while.

Alan cautiously stepped up behind the man, put him down and stuffed him into the back compartment, and closed the door.

With everything in order, Alan followed the ladder to the basement of the warehouse, "The signal is getting stronger, it seems that Jason is here." ”
