But she will never have this chance again.
"Go and take a look at the computer. Maybe there are any clues in it."
River nodded, walked to the computer in the office, and moved his hands on it.
After a while, I heard River urgently say, "Su, come here and take a look at this."
Su Xiao put away Tech Revolver and walked over.
River brings up the computer
documents in.
It contained e-mail exchanges between the club's owner, a man named Francis Delgato, and Vice Mayor Wilton Holt.
From their emails, we can not only see that this guy Holt is Francis' protective umbrella.
Moreover, Ryan came to this club on the night when City Hall was assassinated by Horvath.
And he died in this club, not at home.
River pointed on the screen.
"There is also a video here."
River clicked on the video file.
A picture appears on the screen.
This is at the door of a certain box. A person is holding a mobile phone and slowly walks into the screen from outside.
Chapter 220: The water here is very deep, you can't grasp it (3K)
"Yeah, it's as hard as a board. I'd say he's been dead for at least an hour. No, there's no Trauma Team card. I'm sure he didn't bring it on purpose."
"When you come to a place like this to play, you don't want to have Trauma Team come knocking on the door while you're doing it. In the end, everyone will know..."
"Maybe it's a heart problem. It's probably because the sex was too intense and exciting."
"OK... let's do it this way. The forensic doctor will find him at his home, and then I will tell him how to write. 'He died peacefully in his sleep'."
A man dragged a fat body out of the box.
Although the light was not that bright, Su Xiao and River could still identify who the corpse was at a glance.
Because that corpse not only appeared on TV frequently during his lifetime, but his face also often appeared on billboards in Night City streets and alleys.
The corpse that was dragged out like a pig was none other than Lucius Ryan.
The person who is talking to an unknown person is River's partner, Detective Han.
"My men will get him out, and no one will see him, absolutely."
"Okay, okay. I'll report to you later."
The video ends here.
After watching the video, River seemed to have lost his soul and sat motionless in front of the computer.
It wasn't until a long while later that he came back to his senses.
"The former mayor died in a club for doing that kind of thing. In order to wipe his ass, Vice Mayor found your partner, disposed of the body in a low-key manner, and teamed up with the forensic doctor to perjury. Why am I not surprised at all?"
River said nothing.
He finally knew why his boss didn't let him investigate this matter.
Even his partner tried every possible means to persuade him.
Co-authored by all the higher-ups of NCPD.
The corpses were all handled by his partners, and he was the only one kept in the dark.
Then, River felt a surge of anger coming from the bottom of his heart.
"Wildon Holt, what does this guy think of the NCPD? Is it his tool to cover up the scandal?"
"I'm not surprised at all that he thinks so."
Holt This guy has appeared on TV a lot, and every time he appears, he is flattering the company.
If Jefferson·Perez is an idealist who really wants to do something, then Wilton Holt is an egoist who never forgets his original intention and only wants to make money, and just treats Night City as his private treasury.
River walked outside, as if he didn't want to stay here for a second.
"Let's go, Sue."
"No, wait for me first. Before leaving, there is a place I must go to."
Su Xiao walked out of the office.
River, who was curious, also followed.
Coming out of the office, Su Xiao walked to the box where Lucius Ryan was dragged out like a dead pig as seen in the video.
He first looked around to make sure it was this box, and then walked in.
This box has not been tidied up and remains as it was.
But there was a Braindance Headset left on the pink sofa.
It seems that this Braindance Headset is probably the one who killed Lucius Ryan.
When you come to a place like this, you won't be able to experience ordinary Mewtwo, but Black Market Dream.
The so-called Black Market Dream is a record of criminal activity - often including acts of extreme violence, mental disorder, or both.
They are of a low editorial standard and contain the dark emotions and raw thoughts of the offender or victim.
Experiencing these emotions is extremely dangerous, with few barriers between the recorder and the end user, and the experiencer may suffer severe psychological trauma as a result.
Despite this, Black Market Dream is still quite popular among some bold and curious experimenters, and has become a reliable source of income for various criminal organizations.
Almost at the same time that the Mewtwo experience recording technology was opened to the public, illegal Mewtwo, namely Black Market Dream, appeared on the black market.
Rare sexual fetishes, violence, sadomasochistic fantasies, and even death are among the most common themes at Black Market Dream.
These super dream experiences are secretly recorded, the participants are often forced to act, and there are few edits.
Rewatching these videos can cause nausea, seizures, and in extreme cases, death.
But even with such side effects, Black Market Dream still has its own fixed audience.
The demand for this kind of video remains high, so new producers are constantly emerging in the industry.
Some of them have even established their own well-known brands, constantly exploring the limits of what is possible even if they are morally condemned.
Although River's partner, Detective Han, thought that Ryan died because it was too intense and exciting.
But Su Xiao has a completely different view.
He suspected that it was not Black Market Dream who killed Ryan.
In other words, it's not just Black Market Dream.
Of course, we will know soon what the result will be.
He picked up the Braindance Headset placed on the sofa, turned on the lighting in the box, and inspected it carefully.
From the appearance point of view, this Braindance Headset is no different from other Braindance Headset.
The Mewtwo chip is also properly inserted into the slot.
River followed River into the box. Seeing Su Xiao's appearance, he was stunned for a moment, and then tried to dissuade him. "Su, you don't want to wear that thing, do you?"
Su Xiao rolled his eyes. "Do you think I came out to hang out on my first day? How is that possible?"
One of the rules of life in Night City is that if you find an unwanted Braindance Headset thrown on the ground on the street, or in a public place such as a nightclub or bar.
Never take it home just because it looks cheap, let alone wear it on your head.
Because you don't know what will be in this Braindance Headset.
Su Xiao certainly does not want to put this Braindance Headset that killed Ryan on his head.
We all know that this thing can kill people, so why would we put it on our head? Besides V Zhentian Su Xiao, I really can't think of anyone else who would do this.
He took off the Tactical Goggles that he would wear on his face every time he went on a mission. He pulled out a data cable from the Tactical Goggles, connected it to the Braindance Headset, and then pressed the start button on the Braindance Headset.
River stood behind Su Xiao with his arms folded. He didn't know what Su Xiao was doing.
But he decided to wait and see.
Soon, his doubts were answered.
Just a bang was heard, and electric sparks flashed from the place connected to Tactical Goggles, and wisps of green smoke came out.
The box was suddenly filled with a burning smell.
River was shocked.
"Fuck, what's going on?"
Su Xiao put away the data cable and said in a deep voice, "Lucius Ryan did not die of a heart attack, but someone tampered with his dream. He was killed by an electronic virus."
"Electronic virus? Someone is trying to kill Ryan on purpose."
"Obviously," Su Xiao only felt that his mind was clearer than ever before, "The 'noble man' who funded Horvath never expected Horvath to succeed in the assassination from the beginning. Otherwise, he would not have been equipped with a combat prosthetic body. The only thing missing was "Sandevistan" and "Subdermal Armor","
Sandevistan can slow down time, while Subdermal Armor can make itself as bulletproof as the composite armor of Main Battle Tank.
"Horvath's assassination is just to attract attention, the real killing move is actually this." Su Xiao shook the Braindance Headset with the virus inside.
If Ryan is assassinated in the City Hall, then everyone will naturally focus on Horvath and the mastermind behind Horvath.
But if something were done to Braindance Headset, it would be just an accident.
Some people may ask, if someone checks Braindance Headset, won't they find the electronic virus on it?
That's a good question, but the truth is, no one would do that.
First of all, if a mayor dies in a club, it will be a huge scandal and will cause great distress and trouble to his own reputation and his family.
Secondly, the experience of Black Market Dream itself is risky, which is common sense.
When someone died while experiencing Black Market Dream, the first thing anyone would think of was that it was too exciting and the body couldn't bear it. The next thing they thought of was to deal with the matter quickly and bury it, and never let others know that the mayor died in his own nightclub.
When something happens, people tend to panic, and then they quickly shirk responsibility and completely ignore themselves.
Who would have thought to check Braindance Headset?
River had a guess in his mind, but he was not sure, so he planned to ask Su Xiao first.
"Then who do you think wants Ryan to die?"
Su Xiao shook his head. "It's hard to tell. There are too few clues and the other party hides it too deeply."
So River expressed his guess. "Is it possible that it's Wilton Holt that loser?"
"In order to get promoted to a regular position, you killed the top leader? But you also saw the surveillance video. In order to deal with Ryan's body, Holt found someone from the NCPD, that is, your partner. If he knew about it from the beginning, wouldn't it be better to send his own men to deal with it?"
As Vice Mayor, the person who firmly sits in the second position of Night City Hall, Holt naturally has a group of his own subordinates.
In fact, anyone who climbs a little higher will do this.
After all, without his own team, a mere commander would never know when someone else would kill him.
But River raised objections. "Maybe you think so, is that what he wants? Maybe he just wants to clear away the suspicion? And if the NCPD people come over, they can also drag the NCPD into the water. Everyone's butts are dirty, and no one can make irresponsible remarks about this matter in the future."
River has his own reasons, but there is insufficient evidence to say who is right and who is wrong.
.
So Su Xiao spread his hands.
"I can't say, I really can't say, River, the water here is very deep. I feel that even if Holt is really involved, he is just a pawn pushed to the front by the real mastermind behind the scenes."
Chapter 221 Save yourself first, then destroy the enemy (3K)
River sighed deeply.
At first, he just thought that Ryan's death might not be so glorious, so the superiors were eager to quickly close the case of Horvath's attack on the City Hall a few days ago.
Unexpectedly, after some investigation, I discovered that the characters and mysteries involved were so deep.
Even though they already have a lot of evidence in their hands, what they discovered is still just the tip of the iceberg compared to the entire truth of the entire matter.
This gave him a deep sense of powerlessness and frustration.
