Cyberpunk: I didn't cheat.

The two talked for a long time, and finally exchanged contact information and made an appointment to meet again.

This was a rare period of peace. Vito did not believe in God, but when he confided in Li Ying, it was as if he were confessing.

A few days later, Vito unsurprisingly won the boxing championship. Unfortunately, Dorio lost interest in the competition due to the death of his teammate and ultimately chose to withdraw.

Jack sent a message saying that Susanna's request was more complicated than they had imagined.

"Vito, I've made some progress. I've found out where a few girls are; they've been kidnapped by the Tiger Claw Gang."

It's the Tiger Claw Gang again!

Vito's disgust for the Tiger Claws has now reached its peak.

"Has the Tiger Claw Gang demanded a ransom?"

Jack sent an attachment.

"No, they didn't want them. They were acting suspiciously. The Tiger Claw Gang probably kidnapped these girls to take them to film 'Black Dream.' T-bug tracked their biosignals, and they lost signal in Tiger Claw Gang territory, in the Kabuki district."

Vito carefully read the contents of the attachment, then he created a shared channel and invited T-bug in as well.

"It's Black Dream again! Those Japanese perverts from Tiger Claw Gang never seem to get enough of it! But they're definitely going to sell it once they release it. Now, Bug, go find an expert who can unpack Black Dream data. I'll go grab a few Tiger Claw members and interrogate them to see if we can find any clues. Jack, go find out who's selling Black Dream. Does anyone have anything to add?"

T-bug also looked at the attachment, she said.

"The dataminer and the editor of Mewtwo are inseparable. They don't have a large circle in Night City, and we might be exposed."

Jack asked, puzzled.

"Couldn't they have found some serious filmmakers who make Mewtwo?"

T-bug is straightforward.

"No, they either don't understand the encryption program of Black Dream, or they can't decipher the information we want. Experts who can do these things are highly sought after by the Dream Company, and no one wants to get involved in this mess."

Vito thought of Apollonia, and of the man corroded by the acid, he said.

"Forget about whether the Tiger Claw Gang will find out we're looking for people. Those who get caught filming in sunglasses probably won't survive. What we need to do is find evidence and send those bastards to hell one by one!"

T-bug frowned; her cautious nature made her naturally reject such emotionally driven mission plans.

"But if the Tiger Claw Gang is on guard, it will be a big problem for us. The network in the Kabuki district is not one of those shady, makeshift networks."

Jack spoke.

"Let's find someone first. Let's not think that far ahead. If it doesn't work out, we'll come up with a new plan."

T-bug agreed, and she would also ask a few friends who used to do online exploration together to help inquire.

"I'll also ask Susanna to recommend someone trustworthy and capable. After all, Liz Bar deals with Mewtwo, so they must have someone to help with the cutting."

Vito hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

He drove to the Kabuki district, intending to first cause trouble for the Tiger Claw Gang.

He soon spotted his target at the entrance of an alley, where several Tiger Claw gang thugs were harassing an old acquaintance of Vito's.

Vito drew two small knives, stepped forward, and roared.

"Makanoro, die?"

As the Tiger Claw gang members turned around in confusion, Vito flicked his hand, sending two throwing knives flying. The two gang members fell to the ground with knives stuck in their eyes.

The remaining men were terrified and drew their weapons to attack Vito.

Vito didn't draw his gun; instead, he responded to the thugs with his fists and feet.

A minute later, all the surviving thugs lay motionless on the ground.

"Officer Stings, it's been a long time. Did you get promoted? How come you're not so impressive when you go out? And you got humiliated by a few thugs."

This acquaintance was none other than Stings, who had previously come to Vito to arrange a relationship with him.

Stins glanced at the thugs on the ground and sneered.

"These guys are just sent by Butt to annoy me. You did a good job last time, but unfortunately you weren't of any help. But in a few days, you'll be calling me Inspector Stings."

Vito wasn't interested in the internal strife within the NCPD, but he was interested in the NCPD's past.

"Still haven't dealt with your good colleague? Isn't he backed by the Tiger Claw Gang? How about you do me a favor and I take care of the guy behind him too?"

Stings recently hooked up with Arasaka's people, and by acting as their dog, he proved his loyalty. In a while, he'll be promoted to police inspector. As for selling his soul, Stings has already come to terms with it; there are plenty of people who want to be dogs but don't even have the chance.

"I've never liked dealing with mercenaries, so I probably can't help you with this."

Seeing Stins' attitude completely reversed from the last time, Vito understood what was going on.

"What's wrong? You've forgotten your old friends now that you've found someone new? Which company dog ​​have you been eyeing?"

Stings's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth.

"You came here just to talk about ass? I'm an NCPD member, believe me or not, I'll arrest you and throw you in jail!"

Without saying much, Vito crouched down and swept Stings down with a leg sweep, then pinned his hands behind his back, pressed his knee against Stings' neck, and said...

"NCPD is just a company now, what are you pretending to be, some kind of civil servant?"

Stings struggled but couldn't break free. His face turned red, and he shouted.

"I can't breathe, you fucking Vito, let me go! I was just kidding! Damn it!"

Vito released his grip and returned to his previous position.

"Just kidding, don't draw your gun, you know I'm faster than you."

Stings was furious and spoke up, panting heavily.

"What do you want me to do? Are you going to kill me if I don't?"

Vito smiled and waved his hand.

"Of course not. At most, the new police superintendent will be hospitalized for a few months on paid leave. Just thinking about it is exciting."

Stings' anger subsided considerably. Knowing that Vito was capable of such a thing, he could only speak politely again.

"Tell me, I'll definitely help you, but you have to help me too!"

"Okay, I need the citizen data from the NCPD database, specifically the one used for scanning the prosthetic eyes of frontline police officers."

Stins immediately agreed.

"Okay, I'll give it to you tomorrow. Aside from confidential data, you can scan everyone in this city. So, what about your favor to me?"

"Tell me his name, and I'll blow his head off within two weeks."

Stins thought for a moment and then said.

"I don't need you to kill people for me, I just need you to find out who Dutt's real superior is."

"His real superior? Who was his original superior?"

"A guy called Wooden Man, that guy is in charge of Genting, but there are rumors that Wooden Man is just a dirty worker."

Vito recalled the plot of 2077.

"I happen to know this information. Give me the data tomorrow, and I'll tell you about the person behind it."

"Okay, it's a deal."

After their conversation, Vito tied up the living Tiger Claws and threw them into the trunk, then drove east into the Badlands desert.

Boom!

He threw people off the bus one by one, and then woke them up one by one.

"Come on, let's play a little game where I ask and you answer."
