Chapter 16 Tooth Extraction
"I guess this is it, but how did I only see one Misty's secret, are you sure you're not mistaken? Lois. β
"I'm so annoying, that's where I said it, you can find it yourself." Louise said impatiently and hung up the phone.
Jason angrily kicked the trash can next to him; "Damn, little girl."
Alan: "Anyway, let's go first." β
Pushing open the door, it was filled with strange things, all kinds of incense sticks to ward off evil spirits, yarrow stems, Tibetan "Book of Death" separating chips and pendants for transport. The floor is lined with small candles that appear to be a psychic house, and behind the counter of this mysterious shop stands a woman dressed in blue, dressed in black eyeshadow and lipstick, wearing a collar with spikes around her neck and a round pendant on her chest.
"Welcome, Misty's secret, is there anything that can help the two of you, do you want to count the tarot cards?" The woman spoke.
"I heard there's a prosthetic clinic here, can you tell us where it is?"
"If you're looking for Dr. Victor, he's in the back alley, down the stairs. But aren't you really going to come and hear about your fate? The woman's words seemed to be full of magic, and they aroused Alan's interest.
"Jason, go find Dr. Victor, and I'll talk to Miss Misty."
Jason was a little surprised; "Huh? That... Okay, I'll go first. β
"Think about what happened to you recently and what you want to do in the future." Misty took out a deck of tarot cards and whispered.
"What's your name?"
"Alan."
Misty drew the first card; "The magician represents self-confidence, you use your mind and pure will to adapt to any situation. Magicians are scheming and will always keep one hand in hand, even if everything else is constantly changing, they can control their own destiny. β
"Sounds good."
"The second card is the Priestess, and it's a mysterious card. It represents our secrets hanging on a hanging filament, constantly struggling with common sense and instinct. The priestess symbolizes the cold, calm waters, and the secrets hidden deep beneath the waters. β
"The third is the Emperor, which represents the control of the patriarch and the love of authority and power to manipulate the future. The emperor sets the rules for the public good and enforces them, but there is also a dark side to the privilege. The emperor was domineering and ruthless, and in order to achieve his own goals, he did not hesitate to let the corpses pile up. β
"The last one is the Tower, which portends upheaval, chaos and destruction. Lightning strikes the tower, indicating that the old order buried under the rubble is about to return, and a new order will be born from it. It symbolizes tragedy, final judgment, and self-destruction. β
Alan: "Doesn't sound like the end is going to be too good, self-destructive..... Something. β
Misty: "No matter what the final outcome is, this is a choice you make, your natural talent brings you the strength of an extraordinary person, and it will also breed desires in your heart, be careful of Alan, this is my advice to you." β
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
"Hey, Alan, I found Victor, he said that the man was indeed taken by the Tigerclaw Gang, Neo was injured and came to him to heal, but the Tigerclaw Gang still came to the door, and they took him to the Arasaka Marina District, it seems that they plan to trade there."
Knowing that he had been taken to the Arasaka Marina District, Alan set off quickly; "Got it, let's go, if it's too late, there will be no one."
"Okay, hey! Sergey, meet in the Arasaka Marina area, we'll be there in a moment. β
After informing Sergei and the three, Jason and Alan also drove to the Arasaka Marina area.
The Arasaka Marina is an important link in the local supply chain of the Arasaka Group, with official figures showing that hundreds of goods pass through the docks every month, where automated robots pack and sort them before being delivered to the Group's warehouses and outposts. The company built a wall around the perimeter of the docks, reinforced by motion detectors, energized knife fans, and automatic armored turrets, to protect the Arasaka Group's property from uninvited guests and illegal intruders.
Half an hour later, a group of people met at the pier.
"It's heavily defended here, what's your plan for Alan?" Jason watched from afar with a telescope.
Alan: "I'll use my corporate identity to get in first, and then I'll hack into their security system and put you in." β
Jason: "Okay, I'll listen to you. β
Soon, Ailan successfully passed through the checkpoint and arrived at the main engine room of the dock control center, and most of the encounters along the way were automated robots, and there would be no too many interrogations.
After Alan successfully connected the personal data line, he entered the dock's identity authentication system and helped Jason and them fake a temporary fake identity.
"Hey, Jason, I helped you fake the identity of a transport worker, so you can sneak in." Alan sat in the computer room, controlling the monitoring system and consulting the data in the warehouse. One of the shipments caught his attention, "Experimental Product: Monthly Reading"
"What is this? Arasaka Tokyo headquarters-type experimental product, cracked chip monthly reading with network access warehouse use, emitting special signals to the target object, interfering with the nervous system to achieve a similar hypnotic and confusing effect, the main purpose is to interrogate prisoners, spies to infiltrate. Warn!! The product is currently in the experimental stage and should be used with caution. β
"It's kind of interesting, this errand has gained a lot." Alan said with some excitement.
Jason: "Hey, Alan we've come in, where is the target, have you figured it out, it's really big here." β
Alan: "Surveillance footage shows that they took him to an abandoned warehouse in Area C. We'll be there and, stay safe. β
In the abandoned warehouse in Area C, several members of the Tiger Claw are chatting while Neo is tied up and thrown in a container.
"Has someone from the company arrived? If I don't come again, I'm going to have to chop off his hand, hahaha..."
"Don't mess around, this person can't make mistakes, otherwise not only will we not get a penny, but we may not be able to save our lives."
"Speaking of which, our Tiger Claw Gang really suffered heavy losses last year, Shoho Jotaro, Sato Hiromi, Obata Restoration....... Several big brothers are hanging. β
"Look at what you said, the big brothers above don't die, how can our little brothers below come out, and don't understand it."
"How much money can I share after this list is completed?"
"I've negotiated everything, 10,000 euros each."
"So many, it's worthy of a big company, hahahaha."
Outside the warehouse.
"Jason is all ready, I'll hack into their system later, make them blind, and you can quickly assault them."
Jason pulled out the Red Devil from his waist and checked the ammunition; "Don't worry, settle the battle in five seconds."
"Three, two, one!"
There was a scream from inside the warehouse!
"Ahh!!!!h , I'm blind!! β
"There's hacking us! Find him out!! β
The door was slammed open, and Jason leaped and fired two shots in a row, and bang! Bang! Bullets passed through their heads in an instant, and a double blossom came.
Sergei quickly sprinted to the side of a man, and his right fist was punched with great force, straight through his chest. It seems that he still prefers melee combat to firearms.
"Bastard! Suffer death!! "A member of the Tiger Claw Gang moved as fast as a bolt of lightning, presumably with a military-grade implant, and a mantis knife popped out of his arm in an instant, stabbing Jason in the back, but only one step away, suddenly stopped, and a spark of lightning erupted from his head, and then his head exploded."
"After the strengthened electromagnetic short circuit, I didn't expect it to be so powerful." Alan slowly paced into the warehouse, looking at the mess.
Jason: "Thank you. Brothers. β
Ailan said coldly: "It should be all solved, and you can't leave your mouth alive." β
"Don't worry, they're all dead." Jason picked up a katana on the ground and gestured.
"Let's see, Neo! Don't sleep! The sun is on the ass! Alan walked to the door of the container and pulled it open with all his might, and poor Neo was bound hand and foot, gagged, and blindfolded. Lying inside, he kept making a cry for help, "Mmmmmm β
Alan: "Alright, this is the end of the order, Jason, you can withdraw first, I still have some tails to clean up." β
Jason stretched, a little unsatisfied: "Well, then we'll withdraw first, and next time you need it, remember to call me." β
After Jason left, Alan came to Neo and tore the seal from his mouth; "Hey, you're Neo Tucker, Michiko Arasaka's intelligence officer, I heard that you have collected a lot of information, do you want to tell me about it."
"You.... You are! Was Michiko-sama sent to save me? Neo asked, a little nervously.
Alan smiled and said, "Yes, you guessed right, I'm the one who came to liberate you." How's that, the hanging heart has finally landed. β
"Uh.... Can you untie me first... I have important information to convey to Michiko-sama.."
"Yes, but you have to tell me what the information is."
Neo said with some uneasiness: "Aren't you here to save me!" β
Alan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and ripped off his blindfold; "Hahaha... You.... You must have misunderstood something, I came to save the little information on you, as for your own life or death, it is not within my consideration, but if you are willing to hand over the information, of course I can also save you and leave, otherwise only Arasaka's counterintelligence agents are waiting for you to talk to you, their means.... You should know, Neo. β
Neo looked into Alan's eyes with a look of horror, as if he was not a man, but a devil; "You.... You...."
Alan: "Time is running out, and the surveillance shows that they're already at the checkpoint. Gives you three seconds to think about it. β
"III . Two.... One. Alan counted down slowly.
"In my wounds!" Neo suddenly shouted.
"What did you say, wound?"
"I had the prosthetic surgeon stitch the chip into my wound, in the wound on my leg." Neo said tremblingly.
"I'll see." As he spoke, Alan tore off the gauze on his leg and forcibly pulled the wound open from the stitches, revealing a data chip hidden inside.
"Ahhh!!hhh Stop, you lunatic!! It hurts me to death!!" Neo, who was tied up, rolled on the ground in pain, and suddenly burst into tears.
Alan said contentedly, "Yes, thank you." β
"Now... In, you can.... You can let me go. β
"Don't rush yet, there's one more thing to deal with. Please be a hostage for a while. With that, Alan put the blindfold and seal back on.
"Uh-huh!! Hmmm β
After a while, a Arasaka company car stopped at the gate of the warehouse, and two Arasaka counterintelligence agents got out of the car.
"This is the destination of the trade, let's go inside."
"Hmm."
When the two entered the warehouse, they were instantly startled by the scene in front of them.
"What a situation! Could it be that these are all the corpses of the Tiger Claw Gang! β
"What about the goal? Was it robbed!? β
"Ahem, ahem..... Save me. A young man covered in blood staggered out of the corner.
The two immediately raised their guns in warning and asked, "Are you from the Tiger Claw Gang!?" What about the people here!? β
"I... We've been attacked, but the target is still in our hands, but everyone else is dead. β
Agent Arasaka: "What about the people who attacked you?" Where did they go? β
"They also suffered heavy losses and evacuated."
An Arasaka agent arrives in the container and checks on Neo, who is tied up; "It's the target, it's right, it's alive."
"Okay, take him in the car and head back to headquarters."
The agent glanced at the wounded young man who had fallen to the ground; threw a syringe at him; "Here, this can relieve the pain, and there is a good reward, find a doctor."
Bite! 40,000 euros arrived
The moment the agent turned around, the young man, who had been out of breath, suddenly returned to normal.
"Thank you, both." A black hole muzzle was aimed at the agent's head.
Bang! The agent fell to the ground.
His companion heard the sound, and two more gunshots rang out, and bang! Bang! The bullet hit him in the chest and neck, and the blood sprayed out in an instant, and he lay on the ground convulsing continuously, and the blood kept coughing up from his mouth.
"I'm still okay with my acting, right, Neo." After removing his disguise, Alan smiled and said to Neo on the side.
Neo looked at Alan in panic: "You can let me go, there is no danger now." β
"yes, it's time to go, bye-bye, Neo."
Neo looked puzzled and said, "Huh!? What do you mean!? β
"I'm talking very white, I'm leaving, I'm saying goodbye to you."
Neo shouted in some panic: "Won't you let me go!?" You promise me! You promise me! β
"I'll let you go." After saying that, the muzzle of a black hole was pressed against Neo's head.
Bangββ!!
"It's all solved, it's time to take a look, that interesting test chip." Alan threw all the bodies into the containers in the warehouse, one by one.
"It's really full of goods today! It's all thanks to you, Locille. β
