Chapter 150: Internet Monitoring Suspicion

The story of 2077 begins with the Internet surveillance playing a big game.

From Evelyn, we learned that the one who made a deal with Arasaka Yorinobu was the network monitor.

Network monitoring is for RELIC.

I also learned from Evelyn's email in the game that the buyer who had agreed with Evelyn was also a network monitor.

So the question is, since the Internet Monitor wanted RELIC and had already negotiated with Arasaka Yorinobu, why did they choose to cooperate with Evelyn and let her steal RELIC? Is it because the Internet Monitor can't afford the money?

I'm afraid not.

If you think about it carefully, isn't it quite contradictory? Not only does it increase the risk, but there is no benefit.

Could it be a struggle within the Internet monitoring system? It's possible, but unlikely.

No one would be so stupid as to stroke Arasaka's whiskers for a tiny bit of benefit.

You are wrong. Evelyn is so stupid that she not only dared to offend Arasaka, but also offended the Voodoo Gang.

However, those who can become corporate dogs for network monitoring are all very smart and they will not make such low-level mistakes.

Then there is only one possibility, RELIC is not important, it is just a bait.

Bait for the Voodoo Gang, and perhaps Ott Cunningham.

The evidence is that after the network monitors learned that V had RELIC, they ignored it, which means that they really didn't have much interest in RELIC.

Isn't it funny that even a lark can tell that V has RELIC, but the network monitor who has been in contact with V doesn't know about it?

Then things get interesting. Who does the Internet monitor want to target, the Voodoo Gang or Ott Cunningham?

There is a reason to target the Voodoo Gang. They are constantly drilling holes in the black wall, trying to contact the AI outside the wall to be rapists. In addition, there is a server that is not subject to network monitoring supervision, the subnet Poseidon.

Otto Cunningham, the legendary hacker of fifty years ago and now the big boss of AI outside the wall, after fifty years of growth, no one can be sure where she is now.

It is also possible that the Internet police want to fish her out and kill her.

Don’t think about it anymore. Just take it one step at a time. My head is about to explode from thinking about it.

However, it seems that the network monitoring plan has failed, and Arasaka Yorinobu will probably come to Night City soon.

Now, Night City is going to be lively.

Before Ling Luxian left, he took Mosley's ID, which might be useful later.

I don’t know if he will be surprised or frightened when he meets Mosley again?

Ling Luxian's mouth corners curled up, it was interesting to think about it.

After returning home, just as I was about to enter the door, I saw Rebecca coming out from next door.

Rebecca was shocked, so she asked Ling Luxian, "Why did you come back so soon? Didn't you say you were going to look for the client?"

Ling Luxian shrugged and said helplessly: "It's too late. The client died. I had no choice but to come back."

"Oh my god! There are still people who dare to touch the Internet monitor. They are really courting death." Rebecca's eyes widened. Everyone knows that the Internet monitor is very protective of its own people.

Now that a network surveillance agent is dead, won't they turn Night City upside down?

"That's right." Ling Luxian took out Mosley's agent ID and said, "He is indeed very bold. He even killed a senior agent. It seems that he is a leader."

Ling Luxian touched his chin. If this Mosley was that Mosley, he would indeed be the chief agent of network monitoring.

He can command a large team and has a list of names and locations of all the agents. I'm afraid no one would believe that he is not the leader.

"That's a big deal." Rebecca looked at Ling Luxian worriedly, "Will this cause any trouble for you...us?"

Ling Luxian was amused by Rebecca's funny little appearance. If she cared, she cared. Why did she change her words? Tsundere has become obsolete.

Ling Lu scratched Rebecca's nose and said, "Aren't you always bold and daring? Why are you so cowardly today?"

Rebecca threw herself into his arms with her teeth bared. "You're the coward! I'm just... just a little worried."

Ling Luxian patted Rebecca's head, which was rare. "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with us. It's just that those people from the Voodoo Gang are going to be in trouble."

The network monitoring personnel became suspicious when they saw that Mosley and his team had not returned yet, so they sent people to investigate the place where they met.

The agents sent arrived at the meeting point and found that all the people sent were dead.

The leader trotted over to Mosley's side, looked at his body, and sighed, "Bree, oh, Brie, I didn't expect you to flip over here, let me laugh at you."

The man fumbled around on "Mosley's" body and suddenly his expression changed.

"Mosley" lost his secret agent ID.

"Please investigate the surrounding situation carefully. Someone has got here first."

This person immediately reported the matter, and the top network monitoring officials were shocked when they received the news.

"Bree Dole failed in his mission and the body he was controlling is dead.

It seems that someone came here before us, but only took away Mosley's agent card, and it seems that he is acquainted with Mosley. "

"Well, you guys continue your investigation. We need to hurry up with the Voodoo Gang matter. Bri's data is being uploaded, and he will be able to return to Taiping Island soon."

Although the senior executive on the other side seemed to have a calm tone, he knew that he was really furious this time.

Soon, the agents on the scene reported to him.

"Sir, the scene has not been destroyed. We only obtained some information from one person's brain."

Ben's face immediately darkened. "I've told you so many times to use code names. You're going to kill us."

"Yes, sir."

Ben looked at his timid appearance and sighed, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if it's just a fake identity. Just don't do it again next time."

This Ben, like "Mosley", is a false identity.

"Yes, sir!"

"Tell me about your discovery. Can you track the other party?"

The agent shook his head and said, "The traces have been completely erased and cannot be traced. However, the information in the mind of the Voodoo Gang member has not been erased. He must have known that we would come and deliberately revealed it to us."

"What message?" Ben asked.

After the agent told Ben the information, he left again to look for new clues.

Looking at the man who left in a hurry, Ben felt a little emotional. Didn't I expect the company was so short of people? All the rookies were sent out to perform tasks.

But even if he is a rookie, that is just a spy method, but his hacking skills are beyond reproach. There is no trace of the person who came, it seems that this person is a very high hacker.

Ben touched his chin. The man who came to the scene only took away the agent card of "Mosley". It was obvious that he knew Bree. However, he should not be very familiar with Bree. He seemed very friendly and deliberately left a tip for the network monitoring.

This guy might have some relevant clues, so let's wait until he comes.
