America: Starting with the Last Liberty

[Thermal tracking task completed, settlement in progress...]

[Bonus condition 1, winning the championship with a 20-second handicap, has been achieved!]

[Additional condition 2, achieving a 5-star wanted level and successfully removing the star, has been met!]

[This mission received an S rating, granting 23 Underworld reputation and 5 card-flipping opportunities.]

In Mrs. Gaines' apartment, Rosen is checking the Harvest Day app on his phone.

As expected, Lawson once again received an S rating and was given 5 chances to flip the card.

He glanced at Franklin, who was asleep on the floor and snoring, and Megan, who was sleeping in the bedroom.

After confirming that the two were not pretending to be asleep, Lawson began to flip the cards.

[Win $50000 in cash!]

[Winning the ace "Mockingbird"!]

[I've obtained the spy pen!]

[Win $30000 in cash!]

[Obtained the Taser!]

Shipped!

One ace, two props, and $80,000 in cash—no wonder it's a 3-star job!

This $8 barely made up for the loss caused by Rosen's modification of the Dodge Viper.

After all, Martin Jr. is dead, so Rosen definitely won't get his championship prize money.

[Spy Pen: A fountain pen made with cutting-edge technology, containing a camera and recording module. It can remotely connect to a mobile phone and has extremely strong anti-interference capabilities. A maximum of 3 spy pens can be held, and a maximum of 3 spy pens can be activated simultaneously. Placed spy pens will disappear and will automatically regenerate at 00:00 every day. There is a mole; transaction terminated!]

Wow! It can even connect to a mobile phone, which means that as long as the spy pen is placed there, Rosen has essentially planted an eye!

The ability for placed spy pens to disappear is also a powerful feature, meaning Rosen doesn't need to return to the scene to retrieve them.

As expected of an item produced by the system!

[Taser: Fires electrified darts to subdue targets. The voltage can be adjusted to target different enemies or produce different effects. The nitro magazine and battery will regenerate after 1 second when depleted.]

Rosen took out a Taser from his phone; the weapon was roughly the same shape as a pistol.

The main body of the gun is black, with some yellow warning patterns on the barrel, and a voltage adjustment pointer in a position similar to the hammer handle of a pistol.

There are three symbols on the pointer: a human, an animal, and a skull.

This likely refers to voltage levels used to deal with humans, large animals, and modified for lethal weapons.

Tasers are generally used as non-lethal weapons, causing muscle spasms in enemies and rendering them unable to fight.

However, if the voltage released is large enough, it can also directly kill the enemy.

[Mockingbird: You can now mimic any sound you've ever heard, and even voiceprint analysis can't distinguish your imitations. You'll never guess what species the person you're having a voice chat with is!]

What a monstrous ace!

Rosen could sense that after obtaining the Mockingbird Ace, his hearing seemed to have become clearer, and he was able to distinguish more details in the sounds.

This might be a side effect of the Mockingbird King brand; after all, how can you perfectly imitate a sound if you can't hear its characteristics?

Rosen tried to imitate Megan's voice when she was broadcasting the news on television.

"Welcome to Fox News, I'm Megan Kelly."

This remark actually woke Megan up from her sleep in the bedroom.

"What's going on? I think I heard my own voice?"

Rosen quickly picked up the remote control and pretended to turn off the TV.

"Excuse me, I accidentally turned on the TV, and it was replaying the news."

Megan finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed onto the bed.

"I'm too nervous. I get nervous just hearing my own voice."

It seems Megan didn't realize that Rosen was actually imitating her.

But what Megan said puzzled Rosen.

"Don't you like listening to yourself talk? Your voice is so beautiful."

"Thank you! I just get nervous when I hear my own voice, so I never watch my own shows; it makes me feel uncomfortable."

It's quite a peculiar quirk, but many people have some peculiar quirks; perhaps that's just part of being a personality trait.

"Ms. Kelly, you can go back to sleep."

"Mr. Rosen, I'm having trouble sleeping! The thought of not going to the TV station today is making me very anxious!"

The entertainment industry is known for its rapid turnover and ruthless nature.

Television is arguably part of the entertainment industry, and although Megan Kelly is a news anchor and somewhat well-known in Los Angeles County, she still faces immense pressure and fears being replaced.

Franklin was different in this respect; although his salary was low, the pressure was also low.

That's why Megan is always looking for big news stories to solidify her position at the television station.

This search, however, led to a huge problem for me.

Meghan is now very regretful.

Work, family, the Mafia, and other factors were swirling in Megan's mind, making it difficult for her to fall asleep.

"I suggest you continue sleeping, otherwise you might not have any energy at night. Would you like me to sing you a lullaby?"

Megan couldn't help but glare at Rosen; she felt that this handsome Asian man had a truly awful personality.

Instead of comforting himself at this point, he actually made this kind of joke.

"No need! I can sleep by myself!"

After saying that, Megan turned her back to Rosen, giving Rosen time to continue looking at his phone.

After the heat tracking job was settled, Lawson checked the Harvest Day app and, sure enough, saw a new job.

New Job: In the Name of the Father

Difficulty: ☆☆☆

[Main objective: To reveal the truth about Martin Bonanno Jr.'s death]

[Additional condition 1: Ensure Megan Kelly and Franklin Clinton survive until the mission is completed]

[Additional Condition 2: Reveal the truth about Martin Bonanno Jr.'s death in front of Francis Ritchie]

[Additional condition 3: Complete the task before Martin Bonanno dies]

Current status: Preparation phase

[Purchasable Information: 3 items]

Although it was a 3-star job, Rosen felt that the difficulty of this job fluctuated greatly.

The simplest way to accomplish this would be to use Megan's identity to get into the TV station. As long as the video on the DV is broadcast on the TV station, the job would be done.

However, this would prevent additional condition 2 from being fulfilled.

However, to fulfill additional condition 2, careful planning is required.

This raises another issue regarding additional condition 3.

Judging from the meaning of additional condition 3, it seems that Martin Bonanno has also run into trouble, and it's unknown how much longer he can live.

Never mind, let's buy the intelligence first and see if there's anything useful in it.

Not all the intelligence we buy will be useful; it depends on how Rosen plans to accomplish his mission.
