He knocked again.

A female voice sounded from the loudspeaker next to the door, "We are closed, handsome brother. If you want to have fun, come back after 6pm."

Su Xiao raised his head and saw the monitor installed above the door, staring at him.

"I'm not here to play. Regina asked me to come. He said someone was waiting for me inside."

"Regina? So that's it. Handsome boy, you are the helper Regina called for. Please wait a moment."

Half a minute later, the door opened.

A woman with a round head and a spiked metal bat in her hand was leaning against the door.

"Please come with me."

She gestured to Su Xiao to follow her.

With Su Xiao, pass through the curtain made of plastic hard sheets.

The lights in the hall were dim and the stage was deserted.

The sofas were scattered with employees who were tired after a long night.

There were a few people sitting in front of the bar, drinking and smoking, lost in thought.

Some people couldn't help but feel strange when they saw Su Xiao following the woman with a round head.

"Isn't it closed? Why did you bring him in?"

The ball-headed woman responded unceremoniously, "It's none of your business. Go to sleep. If you can't sleep, find something to do."

Immediately, she took Su Xiao into the dim corridor next to the hall.

Finally, he opened the door of a private room in the corridor.

The lights inside were dim, and a very tall woman was sitting on the sofa in the private room.

The woman's hands are like maces, with many spikes growing out of them.

There are also traces of prosthetic implants on his face.

The woman motioned Su Xiao to sit down. "What do you want to drink?"

"Just Coke."

"Bring me a bottle of Coke and a bottle of whiskey."

After the woman finished giving instructions to the ball head, she turned her attention back to Su Xiao.

"Maybe you have already guessed who I am, but let me introduce myself first. My name is Suzie·Q. Lizzie's Bar is my industry, and I am also the leader of Mox Gang."

Su Xiao nodded.

He didn't beat around the bush, but went straight to the point and got to the point. "Regina Tell me, you have a high-risk job here, what is it specifically?"

"Let's talk about business directly? Okay, I like it very much." Suzie put the Coke that the ball-headed woman brought in in front of Su Xiao, opened the whiskey bottle himself, and took a sip first, "Have you heard about the recent missing persons incident that happened in Watson District?"

Su Xiao didn't move the Coke in front of him, his expression solemn.

"I know, it's broadcast on TV every day. I just watched the replay of <Tonight Talk>, and Zyg was talking about it. What? Could it be that someone in Mox Gang is also missing?"

Suzie put down the whiskey bottle and wiped the remaining alcohol on his chin. "Yes."

Su Xiao thought, "Then Ms. Suzie wants me to help find someone? But why not hire a private detective? Aren't they more professional?"

Night City has more than one detective agency.

It's not impossible to have a good reputation.

As long as they can afford it, their success rate in completing the commission is quite high.

Suzie waved his hand.

"I'm not asking you to find someone, I'm asking you to kill someone."

"Kill?"

Su Xiao is confused.

If he was asked to kill people, then why did Suzie mention the human kidnapping case just now?

"What I want you to get rid of is the person behind this series of human kidnappings."

Su Xiao showed an expression of sudden realization.

"Then Ms. Suzie knows who is behind the scenes?"

"That's right."

"Is it convenient to disclose it?"

"What's the inconvenience? How can you do anything without information?" Suzie paused, sat upright, and looked directly into Su Xiao's eyes, "Seihou Jotaro... have you heard of this name?"

Seihou Jotaro?

Why is it related to Law Enforcement Group again?

Su Xiao's pupils shrank slightly.

He has not forgotten that Chihana and Ryoko mother and daughter are now in Wolf Bar, avoiding Tiger Claws Gang.

It was the one who escaped from the clutches of Law Enforcement Group.

"Ms. Suzie, are you sure?"

Suzie has been observing Su Xiao.

When she found herself saying Seihou Jotaro's name, Su Xiao only showed a slight change in expression.

This made Suzie feel a little shocked.

Seihou Jotaro's reputation among Watson District cannot be said to be one of humility and kindness, at least it can be said to be one of ghosts and sorrows.

Especially since he is a cadre of Tiger Claws Gang.

There is also a group named after his surname under the hand.

Sometimes when a child is disobedient, parents use his name to scare their children.

NCPD is easy to use.

Su Xiao didn't have much reaction after hearing Seihou Jotaro's name.

Either the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, or it is really capable.

Considering that this is the person recommended by Regina, the latter is more likely than the former.

"Of course, otherwise there is no need for us to talk here. Maybe you don't know, but my time is actually quite valuable. After all, I manage a bar and I earn several digits every minute."

"Let me confirm again, the person you want me to kill is Seihou Jotaro?"

"Yes."

As a result, Su Xiao immediately waved his hand. "I can't do this job."

Suzie was stunned.

She was still thinking just now, the person recommended by Regina is really helpful.

As a result, reality immediately slapped her in the face.

"I know your worries, but in fact you don't need to be too afraid. It is said that Law Enforcement Group suffered a heavy blow some time ago. Not only did many people die, but even the Nantong Zhengshuang known as "Dragon of Law Enforcement" also died in that conflict."

"And now, Law Enforcement Group is at his weakest, so you don't have to worry."

Su Xiao xin said that I know this better than you.

After all, Dragon of Law Enforcement was solved by me myself.

However, for the safety of mother and daughter Chihana and Ryoko, Su Xiao did not pretend to be so cool.

"With all due respect, Ms. Suzie, if it's as easy as you said, then why doesn't Mox Gang just do it herself and waste money on finding a middleman to hire me?"

Suzie was choked up when he heard this.

Su Xiao smiled and continued.

"The Zhengfa Group is weak, but the Tiger Claw Gang entrenched in Night City is not the only one. The Tiger Claw Gang's minions who control Japan Street are very sharp."

"You won't fight alone. I can let Mox Gang support you." Suzie argued.

Su Xiao waved his hand and said bluntly.

"This is not a matter of support or not. If Japantown's Tiger Claws Gang comes over and kills you, you will also be finished."

Suzie's expression was extremely ugly.

Actually, before Su Xiao arrived.

Suzie relied on Lizzie's Bar's connections and connections to secretly inquire about it on his own.

Of course she wouldn't be so stupid as to hand over the boss directly.

It's just a sideways question, how much do mercenaries usually charge if they want to deal with Tiger Claws Gang.

To her surprise, nine out of ten people she asked refused.

Because Tiger Claws Gang is different from other gangs.

Tiger Claws Gang is more "unity".

Even if just one of the younger brothers is killed, Tiger Claws Gang can mobilize everyone.

Chapter 92 You are also a Buddhist layman with extra money (4K)

Of course, in the eyes of Tiger Claws Gang, they are not making a fuss out of a molehill. So many people come together just to help a little brother regain his place.

But in their view, the killing of their younger brother is tantamount to provoking all Tiger Claws Gang, which they cannot tolerate.

What they want to get back is their own place.

The other gangs are all scattered, but Tiger Claws Gang is a monolith.

The mercenaries naturally didn't want to touch the tiger's butt.

But now that he saw the mercenaries Regina had brought in, he also backed down...

Suzie couldn't help showing a disappointed expression.

"Is there no other way?"

Su Xiao stretched out his right hand and rubbed it quickly with his thumb, index finger and middle finger.

A look of confusion on his face.

"You have to pay more."

Suzie's expression immediately softened.

You should have told me earlier.

Problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

"How many people are there in your team? After the event is completed, I will give you 10,000 euros. I mean 10,000 euros for each person in your team."

Suzie thinks that the price he offered is very high.

The hiring fee is already higher than that of ordinary mercenaries.

Su Xiao has no reason not to agree.

However, Su Xiao has a different opinion.

"Each person in my team has 50,000 euros, and Mox Gang must support us. During the commissioning period, he will listen to my command, be at my disposal, and be on call at any time."

Suzie's face twitched.

Mox Gang support is nothing.

In fact, even if Su Xiao doesn't say anything, Suzie will take the initiative to bring it up.

After all, it is Tiger Claws Gang that we have to deal with, so we must ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Supporting Su Xiao and others is actually for Mox Gang himself.

Just...

This mouth is worth fifty thousand per person.
