Chapter 645 The enemy of the enemy is a friend
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of V, Jack and Takemura.
"What do you mean?"
"Parker is dead?"
"Almost. However, I saved her in time and told me who she was working for..."
Hearing this, Takemura first asked: "Who?! Military technology? Or Kang Tao?"
"The Voodoo Gang!"
This answer surprised Takemura, and he couldn't help but repeat the gang's name several times in a low voice.
As the personal bodyguard who accompanied Saburo Arasaka from the Tokyo headquarters, Takemura knew nothing about the situation in Night City.
Of course, he doesn't know about the famous gangs in Night City...
"So, by instructing us to steal the chip, Parker is working for the Voodoo Gang?"
"So." Lu Qi nodded to V, and then said: "However, regarding the chip, she mistakenly overestimated herself and underestimated the Voodoo Gang."
Immediately afterwards, he told the three people how Parker was remotely invaded and almost died.
Just as V and Jack were putting the whole thing together, Takemura suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice:
"No matter who is behind it, Arasaka Yorinobu must pay the price for the crimes he committed!"
"Just you? Alone?"
With a sneer, V mercilessly exposed Takemura's strong-willedness and strong-willedness, "If it weren't for me and Jack, you wouldn't have been able to escape from that apartment!"
"Also, do you still want to seek justice in Night City? Haha..."
A series of heart-wrenching words did not make Brother Takemura feel depressed, but his eyes became even more determined:
"What I want is revenge, this is more feasible."
Facing V's searching gaze, Takemura paused before continuing:
"I have allies. As long as I bring you, the living evidence, in front of them, I am confident that Yori Xuan will plead guilty and be brought to justice."
"Are you so sure they will listen to a mercenary?"
"I have no other choice. Besides, I have no connections here, and I am still a traitor who is being hunted."
Crossing his legs, V crossed his arms and twitched the corner of his mouth, "So, you want me to run to the Arasaka headquarters and loudly announce in front of everyone that Arasaka Yorinobu is a murderer and that he killed Arasaka Saburo?"
Faced with V's sarcastic tone, Takemura just shook his head, "We will find a neutral place to hear the matter in front of rational candidates, and we will also use... some kind of procedural means to reveal the truth of the matter."
"Put in another polygraph? Don't be stupid!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Qi, who had been beside him, suddenly said:
"I think Mr. Takemura's proposal is quite good."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention was once again focused on him.
After looking Lu Qi up and down, Zhucun couldn't help but look solemn and asked:
"Who are you?"
"You can call me A. I am a person who is against Arasaka Company, and I am also a person who can help you get revenge."
With a flash of doubt in his eyes, Zhucun continued to ask:
"What does this have to do with you?"
Shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands, Lu Qi said:
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend... I think we can work together and each get what we need."
"You want to expose Arasaka Yorinobu's crimes and avenge your master; and we want to get what we want from Arasaka Company. In other words, our goals are basically the same."
Hearing this, Zhucun did not respond. Instead, he turned to look at V and asked, "V, do what he said represent what you mean?"
V did not hesitate and nodded directly:
"Of course, we are in the same group."
After getting the answer, Zhucun lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at V and said:
"Then, we can cooperate. If you help me, the benefits will naturally come to you. However, planning...preparation...it all takes time...I just hope you stay in the city for the time being and not go out."
"Don't worry, he won't go out."
After taking a deep look at Lu Qi who was speaking, Zhucun left his contact information behind and left the food factory alone.
After the outsiders left, V, full of doubts, immediately asked:
"A, what are you going to do?"
Lu Qi, who touched his smooth chin and had a plan, said:
"Before we start dealing with Arasaka, we must first collect information about the chip to confirm how long it will take before it takes your life."
"Although this relic chip is Arasaka's technology, it's not just Arasaka people who know about the chip..."
Hearing this, V's eyes suddenly lit up, "You mean...the Voodoo Gang?"
"That's right, since those Haitians hired Parker to steal the chip, they must know something about chips to do this."
"That makes sense. But in addition to the Voodoo Gang, we also need to find Anders Hermann."
"Anders Hermann?"
Before V could answer, Jack on the side spoke first:
"In order to do this job, we did a lot of homework. Anders Hermann is Arasaka's scientific research director, and this damn chip is his work!"
After taking over the conversation, V frowned and added: "However, the news is that he has defected from Arasaka and is hiding somewhere, as if he has disappeared from the world."
The corners of his mouth curled up, and Lu Qi said calmly as if he didn't care:
"No matter how powerful the hiding technique is or how deep the hiding is, there will always be clues left behind. If no one in Arasaka can find him, it means that someone is protecting Anders Hermann. Anyone who dares to take in Arasaka
There are only a handful of people or forces in the entire Night City who are traitors and have the energy to evade Arasaka's search..."
"Well...this has narrowed the scope of our search..."
While muttering, a preliminary plan gradually took shape in Lu Qi's mind:
"Let's see, we divide our forces into two groups."
"C, you and Jack are going to find an intermediary to find out information about Anders Hermann. V and I are going to Taipingzhou to talk to people from the Voodoo Gang."
The reason why Lu Qi allocated it this way was not random, but rather deliberate.
He and Shirley are both human beings who have not undergone any prosthetic transformation.
If they ever need to connect to a cybernetic body or implant, they can only be blind. With a helper, it will be more convenient...
Just as Lu Qi was speaking, a shadow that only V could see appeared out of thin air and gradually took shape.
Seeing Johnny Silverhand running out of his head without permission again, V's mood instantly became unhappy and he cursed in his mind:
"Why the hell did you come out again?"
Hearing this, Johnny Silverhand, who was leaning against the wall and pretending to be cool, was not angry. He just raised his hand, pointed at Lu Qi, and said:
"This kid seems to have a plan. He is much smarter than an idiot like you..."
After hearing this, V was not to be outdone and cursed directly in his heart:
Chapter completed!
