It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

"Master, everything is done."

After dealing with all the hackers, Su Lin led the team back to Gu Yi's residence. "All the intruders have been brought to justice, and their equipment and brain-computer chips have also been brought back."

"well done."

Xu Shi nodded slightly, "Did you find anything?"

"I took a quick look when I came back and was sure they were from Starfire."

Su Lin replied, "The others need further decoding."

Considering that Xu Shi might not know, she added, "'Spark' is a newly formed gang in Sin City, probably of similar size to the previous 'Long Knife Gang' and 'Disg'..."

"Okay, got it."

Although he was already familiar with all of this, Xu Shi still nodded in agreement with her words, "Please take care of these matters. Report any situation to me as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Su Lin responded and turned to look at Gu Yi beside her, "What about her? How should we deal with her?"

It must be said that Miss Black Rabbit's situation seems a bit bad at this moment.

The whole person collapsed on the chair like mud, gasping for breath, his hair disheveled, and his eyes... there was no unyielding look, but he rolled his eyes and couldn't stop crying.

The "Red Ant" was still hanging around her neck, and the countdown dramatically stopped at 00:01.

I don’t know if this is someone’s bad taste...but this kind of life-and-death race is indeed too exciting for Gu Yi.

"She..."

Xu Shi thought for a moment and said, "Take him back to the company and work to pay off the debt."

"……Hello!"

Hearing this, Gu Yi sat up suddenly, "Didn't we agree that I would help you with these and not pursue other matters?!"

"Right, that's exactly what I was thinking."

Xu Shi leaned down and explained with an apologetic look, "But I estimated that your actions caused the Snake Ring to lose nearly 10 million credit points... I can't make the decision on such a large amount, otherwise the board of directors will give me trouble.

Let's understand each other. If someone came to your house to steal something, you wouldn't let him go so easily, right?"

Understand your mom!

How could Gu Yi remain calm? How could there be so many!

All the ransoms he had extorted over the years, added together, were not even one-tenth of it!

This is totally extortion!

What a bastard! I knew this guy was up to no good!

But Xu Shi's next words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing all her arrogance.

"Now that you've been exposed, think about how many people out there want to kill you.

The Inspection Bureau, the company that you have a grudge against... Oh, and now there is also a "Spark". After all, the deaths of those people are also related to you.

So, do you want to come with us, or be sold to District 6 to be a sex doll? It's up to you."

...Who do you think was responsible for the identity being exposed? !

Gu Yi gritted her teeth in anger, but since she had the upper hand, she had no right to refuse.

Just as Xu Shi said, even if the "Snake Ring" leaked a little news, it would be a disaster for him.

Thinking about it this way, perhaps from the moment the other party broke into the room, she had no choice but to be led by the nose...

"That's right."

Seeing that she agreed resignedly, Xu Shi patted her face with relief and said, "I'm afraid that only a kind-hearted person like me can give you a chance to reform... Miss Gu, you must cherish this opportunity."

"...Get out of here!"

She accepted her fate, but after being pulled by him again and again, Gu Yi finally couldn't bear it anymore and rushed towards him with bared teeth, "You *-use civilized language-*! I *-use civilized language-*..."

Such resistance was naturally futile. The next second, the combat team members behind her mercilessly pressed her to the ground.

"Take it away quickly."

Xu Shi used his little finger to pick his ears, "By the way, remember to cover your mouth."

-

Miss Heitu was wrapped in a snakeskin bag and transported away.

The combat team set off first, but Xu Shi and Su Lin were not in a hurry to go back.

"...Master, you didn't intend to let her go from the beginning, did you?"

Next to the bulletproof car, Su Lin suddenly asked.

"of course."

Xu Shi did not deny it.

But she’s the heroine, and she’s not just a vase type... The fact is that there are basically no useless heroines in the original novel, they are all the type that have both good looks and abilities.

What to do?

Are we going to let them become the protagonist's assistants one by one?

I can only bear the hardship and turn them into my own dogs.jpg

Su Lin did not question his decision.

She also saw Gu Yi's abilities. If she were in his place, she would also try every means to recruit him under her command.

But she couldn't help but be curious, "Speaking of which, Master, how did you know that Miss Gu was hiding here?"

The wanted criminal that the Inspection Bureau had been trying to catch for four years without any success should not be found easily by him.

"...You should personally take care of her employment."

There was no way to answer this question. Xu Shi could only look up at the bronze sky above his head and quietly changed the subject. "Remember to change her clothes. Her clothes are affecting the image of the group... Also, I guess she is also an "upgrader". Don't forget to do a test for her."

In fact, it is not an estimate, but a confirmation.

There is no sun, moon, or clouds in the "City of Night Crimes", and the sky is shrouded in a haze called "Rust Mist" all day long.

The origin of this pollution source is still unclear, but under its influence, many people have gained special abilities different from ordinary people.

The main characters in the original work are basically without exception, all of them are "Upgraded" with special powers.

"...Yes, please rest assured."

Su Lin paused. Since Xu Shi didn't want to say anything, she tactfully stopped asking any more questions.

But she was sure that the young master was definitely not as... incompetent as he seemed before.

After all, what he did today has greatly overturned my impression of him.

"So, what's next?"

This made her ask, "It's just past six o'clock now. Do you want me to take you to the nightclub?"

"Pull it down."

Xu Shi leaned against the car door and yawned lazily, "I'm so tired, I'm going home to sleep."

"it is good."

Such an answer obviously satisfied Miss Su Lin, and she rarely smiled.

"By the way, Master..."

"Ok?"

"Happy birthday to you."

"……Thanks."

Xu Shi returned the smile, moved closer to wipe the blood off her face, and jokingly whispered to her, "Your stockings are torn, don't forget to change them."

"Hey?"

Su Lin was startled, she looked down, and a blush instantly crept up her cheeks.

...The preface is retracted!

This evilness hasn't changed at all!

same moment.

Sin City District 7, "Nightlife" bar.

"Old Shen, the "Snake-luring Operation" was successful. The list has been sent to you."

The hooded man sat in a corner of the bar, reporting the situation in a low voice.

"Great!"

A hearty laugh came from the other end of the headset, "What about Mr. Zhou's team?"

"The people of the Snake Ring discovered it too quickly, and they couldn't escape."

"Is this so..."

The person on the other end of the headset fell silent. When he spoke again, joy had turned into regret. "Their blood will not be shed in vain. One day, the consortium will pay the price for their atrocities."

The hooded man sighed, "Then what's next..."

"Proceed as usual and deploy personnel according to the list. Also, let Chen Fang contact Miss Xia.

I have been in touch with her before and she will definitely be able to help us.

By the way, just to be on the safe side, remember to ask her to confirm the authenticity of the list."

"Okay, I see."

The hooded man responded, cut off the communication, raised his head to drink the beer on the table, stood up and left the bar.
