Director Furt has already reconciled with the leader of the Sixth Street Gang group.
They deliberately left a batch of firearms and flashlights in a den that was not intended to be used, and erased all Sixth Street Gang graffiti and signs.
Think of it as an "offer" to Director Furt.
What Director Furt needs to do is to invite News 54 to accompany him in order to record the NCPD's civil and military skills.
Of course, do the whole show.
Just guns and flash are definitely not enough.
Therefore, Sixth Street Gang deliberately went to the streets and recruited a group of young and ignorant gangsters who had just come out to hang out.
These gangsters don't even know how to use guns, not to mention that Sixth Street Gang left a lot of flashes behind.
NCPD does not have to worry about possible resistance.
By the time they broke in, these gangsters were probably very excited.
Considering that this raid is just a formality, Sixth Street Gang has already helped arrange everything.
Therefore, the vehicle assigned by Director Furt to Xiang Sheng Lindo is a basic police patrol car provided by the "Sky Dome" automobile manufacturer to NCPD.
Cheap synthetic plastics and glass, flimsy bumpers, and a body as brittle as tofu...
Despite these shortcomings, Director Furt still waved his hand and placed a large order with the manufacturer "Sky Dome".
It's not because of anything else, but because it's cheap.
In addition, Director Furt also specifically prohibits Xiang Sheng Lindo and other police officers from carrying firearms other than "Lexington", even if they are self-prepared weapons.
Of course Director Furt was not stupid in issuing this order.
It's about his "foresight".
NCPD is not without heavy equipment and police special vehicles.
But this is obviously not as effective as using old-fashioned police patrol cars and outdated equipment.
Because the latter can send a signal to the citizens of Night City, as well as Mayor Ryan and Jefferson who are campaigning for mayor and giving speeches hard.
PS1: Rosalind Myers, the president of New America, is the former CEO of Militech. At the same time, President Myers and the boards of directors of Militech still maintain close ties.
Therefore, New America is not "New America nationalized Militech" as some people on the Internet think, but "Militech dominates New America from within/from above."
PS2: Yesterday, I received 150 monthly tickets and added 1,000 words.
Current progress (45000/65000)
Chapter 82 Then something unexpected happened (4K)
--"Although our NCPD is underfunded, underequipped, and understaffed, and all police officers risk their lives every day at work, we still spare no effort to fight crime."
"So because we are working so hard, can you allocate more funds to us?"
I believe that as long as Mayor Ryan and Jefferson are not fools, after seeing this signal, they will rush to ensure that once they succeed in the election, they will increase the funding for NCPD.
Although the NCPD is a listed company, it is still a violent agency under the jurisdiction of Night City Hall and an armed force that maintains urban security and social order.
Naturally, we need City Hall budget to allocate funds, and we also accept City Hall's dispatch.
And once Mayor Ryan and Jefferson make such a guarantee, it will not only win more votes for them, but it will also play into Director Furt's plan.
After those funds are released, a considerable part of the money will naturally go into Director Furt's own pocket.
Some people may ask, "If everything goes well, it's okay, but what if something goes wrong?"
If the person who raised this question was a subordinate of Director Furt, it would only lead to a scolding:
--"What accident? Where did the accident come from? If I say there is no accident, it means there is no accident! If you dare to mention an accident to me again, I will surprise you first!"
I have to say that Director Furt's wishful thinking was really sound.
The sense of smell and operation on the track of power are so micro-managed that it makes people scared.
Director Furt has been in contact with News 54 without incident since early in the morning.
News 54 As expected, a news gathering communications vehicle was sent over.
After News 54's staff arrived at the NCPD headquarters, Xiang Sheng Lindo led the team and set off as expected.
Then nothing unexpected happened.
Director Furt has considered every aspect and is very thoughtful.
Only one thing was overlooked.
He was sitting in the office, with the air conditioner blowing and drinking some wine.
I drive my own private car to and from get off work.
He had never been to any of the urban areas defined as "dangerous" by the NCPD.
Naturally, I have never used these basic patrol cars provided by the manufacturer "Sky Dome".
When NCPD and "Sky Dome" purchased this batch of patrol cars, they did so in order to reduce costs to the maximum extent, and also to put as many euros into their wallets as possible.
The price Director Furt paid to the manufacturer of "Sky Dome" was not much higher than buying the car used by Nomads directly.
So you can imagine how bad these cars are.
The most direct result was that the intelligent navigation system of the patrol car that led the way failed and failed to take them to the predetermined den of Sixth Street Gang.
Instead, they were led to the stronghold of Eden Gang.
"Superintendent Xiang Sheng, what should we do?" One of his subordinates asked worriedly.
Xiang Sheng Lindo glanced around.
The members of Eden Gang, like a pack of wolves, surrounded them.
Everyone's eyes were wide open, with malicious expressions on their faces.
Xiang Sheng Lindo pulled a subordinate and whispered to him, "Go over and talk to News 54's people and ask them to stop filming and get back to the car."
The subordinate looked confused. "Just... just say it like this?"
"Yes, you can go directly to the leader. They are also seasoned and will understand."
Xiang Sheng Lindo just finished giving instructions.
Suddenly, a police officer shouted, startling Xiang Sheng Lindo.
"Hey! As for you, don't come any closer!"
He turned his head and saw that a police officer's gun had been pointed at the head of a Eden Gang member.
Xiang Sheng Lindo was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.
I cursed in my heart: I am not your superior, you are my brother. Do you know what the situation is now? Are you going to kill all of us?
He quickly stepped forward and pulled the police officer away.
First, he pushed the Eden Gang member and pushed him back into the crowd.
Then he said seriously to the police officer, "What are you doing? Are you crazy?"
"That guy kept staring at me and made me feel uncomfortable."
"This is Eden Gang's territory, not TM's City Center, please make it clear to me!"
The threat level of City Center is assessed as safe by NCPD, making it the urban area with the best public security conditions in Night City.
City Center Forget it.
In a place like this, if you put a gun to someone's head, aren't you afraid that if someone accidentally misses the gun and it goes off, you will die?
After Xiang Sheng Lindo scolded his subordinates, he shouted loudly at the Eden Gang members who were always surrounding them and staring at them closely with malicious eyes.
"Calm down! Please calm down! Please continue to do what you are doing. This has nothing to do with you. It is just a misunderstanding."
The police officers were all forced to form a circle, and they all nervously held "Lexington" in their hands.
Although he has a gun in his hand.
But this water gun cannot give them a sense of security at all.
Because the guns on the opposite side not only have more guns, but also have stronger firepower.
"Superintendent Xiang Sheng, I have a bad feeling."
"It's okay, Hudson, it's okay..."
"Superintendent Xiang Sheng, News 54 people are all on the bus. They said they would follow us."
Finally heard some good news, which made Xiang Sheng Lindo feel refreshed.
"Yoshi! Everyone get in the car, let's get out of here..."
However, Xiang Sheng Lindo has not finished speaking yet.
The door was closed again when they came in.
At the same time, a heavy explosion-proof door rose from the ground, blocking the exit tightly.
Xiang Sheng Lindo and others' faces suddenly became extremely ugly.
I couldn't help but become commotion.
Xiang Sheng Lindo is indeed the team leader and responded quickly.
"Quickly, contact the bureau and ask them to send reinforcements!"
However, his subordinates were crying and what they said made Xiang Sheng Lindo feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.
"If the communication cannot be sent out, there must be a communication jammer installed here."
Xiang Sheng Lindo looked ashen.
The police officers under his command all had pale faces.
News 54 People over there are not fools either.
Except for the interns who just came out of college, everyone else also reacted.
The NCPD must have taken the wrong path, which is why they were brought to this dragon's pond and tiger's den.
Now the only door is closed, and they can't get out. The staff tried to contact News 54, but they couldn't, and the communication was blocked.
fragrant
Sheng Lindao gritted his teeth.
He has one last solution.
But that's also a risky move.
He took a step forward and shouted to the crowd surrounding them.
"Where is your Holy Father, Joseph Schilder? I want to see him."
No one spoke.
The Eden Gang members gathered around just stared at Xiang Sheng Lindo with vicious eyes.
It's like staring at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Just as a conflict was about to break out, a man's voice suddenly came from the loudspeaker installed on the wall.
There are loudspeakers everywhere in Eden Gang's stronghold, and the sound spreads throughout the entire Eden Gang building complex.
"Officer, I'm in the chapel at the deepest point. Please come directly."
With these words from the Holy Father, the surrounding eyes looked fierce, and the guards who wanted to peel off the skin of these NCPD finally slowly lowered their weapons.
And made a way.
But their expressions of choosing others to devour did not change.
The police officers looked at each other, and then, under the signal from Xiang Sheng Lindo's eyes, they also put down their guns.
