Wu Chang pretended not to notice Raymond and searched for information step by step. His method of gathering information was neither conventional and searching for suspicious information like Booker and Colton; nor was he direct and brutal in asking for information like Veronica. His method of finding assassins was to wait and wait. First, find a Psalm Company manager operating on Danube Street, follow him, use his chosen target as bait, and wait for the assassin to show up. The wait-and-see method is inefficient and highly random, but it has the advantage of making it easier for Raymond to contact him. The target Wu Chang was eyeing at the moment was named Martin, an old black man with dreadlocks and a big gold chain. At this morning's emergency security meeting, Mock divided the city of Wildo into more than twenty areas based on the assassin's area, scope of activity, time of attack, and low, medium, and high risk levels. Among them, Danube Street is a medium-risk area, and Martin is the head of the intelligence department responsible for investigating this area. As a former secret agent, Martin is a professional in the field of intelligence and security. He can wear a suit and tie, transform into a social elite, go in and out of high-rise buildings, and use a standard old London accent to make business reports in front of thousands of people; or he can be like what he is looking at, with dreadlocks and a big gold chain tattoo, and two F's in one sentence **k.
Anyone who sees Martin now will think that he is a bastard from the street, or a pure-blooded person from the third generation of his ancestors. No one will associate him with the seventh-level executive of Anthem Company. Unless someone has obtained his file in advance, learned his appearance and characteristics, and roughly knows the scope of his activities tonight based on the personnel distribution map. For example, Wu Chang. After he agreed to help the Ministry of Security search for the assassin, as one of the leaders of the operation, he obtained the list of employees of the Ministry of Security involved in the operation. He relied on Martin's intelligence to lock Martin, and Raymond, who was following him, used him to lock Martin. But Martin himself didn't know all this. He still played his role, took out two wads of crumpled banknotes from his trouser pocket, and bought a small package of goods from the black brother in the alley. He generously gave half the bag to the other person, and then waited for the other person to get excited and began to talk to him intentionally or unintentionally. Due to federal law requirements and in order to protect citizens' privacy rights, even in large cities like Wilderness, there are still a large number of areas that cannot be covered by surveillance cameras. These drug dealers who live at the bottom of the alleys are living cameras. Most of them grew up in this neighborhood and are extremely sensitive to strangers. At the same time, the life at the bottom makes them very knowledgeable about self-protection. When encountering danger, they have many ways to hide and avoid being discovered by danger. Their skin color is their protective color. If they squat in the shadows, as long as they don't bar their teeth, no one will be able to spot them hiding there. In Martin's experience, these people often provide unexpected clues. For example, now, Lao Hei, who was high in front of him, revealed that his cousin drank too much three days ago, fell into the trash can, and fell asleep unconscious. When he opened his eyes in the middle of the night, he vaguely saw a mysterious person. , dragging a big shot and asking something. During the interrogation, the name of Psalm Company appeared vaguely. Martin suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked tentatively: "Can you introduce me to your cousin? I heard that people from the Anthem Company are looking for that guy, and the reward is high." The drug dealer said disdainfully: "Do you want me to be a whistleblower? It's not too much to kill all the dogs in the Anthem Company." Martin said: "I have a way. If you provide clues, you can get 60,000 federal coins."
The drug dealer immediately took out his mobile phone: "Wait, I will contact my cousin right away. The bonus is 28, at least 37, if it is less than this, there is no need to talk!" As soon as the drug dealer took out his mobile phone, suddenly a noose fell from the sky and was put around his neck. The next moment, a figure wearing a mask and black clothes dropped from a high place by the rope, hanging the drug dealer in the air like a flag. . Martin sensed something was wrong and reached for the gun on his trousers, but the masked man who landed on the ground kicked the gun away first. Martin prepared to fight the masked man in hand-to-hand combat, but when he raised his head, he was met with a pair of deep pupils. He seemed to be submerged by the deep sea in the other person's pupils and lost control of his body. The masked man searched Martin, who was standing still, and found two more guns, a combat dagger, and a small high-power smart grenade from Martin. "You don't need to bother looking for me, because I will take the initiative to find each of you." At this moment, Wu Changzhen, who had been following Martin, seemed to have just realized something was wrong. He hurried into the alley and shouted to the masked man: "stop!" Seeing his true self rushing into the alley, the masked man did not stop. Instead, he put a pistol to Martin's forehead and pulled the trigger. Bang! Martin's head exploded on the spot. Wu Chang seemed to be irritated by the masked man's actions. He blocked the intersection leaving the alley and said angrily: "Assassin, you can't escape today." Raymond, who was wearing a mask, looked at Wu Changzhen and said calmly: "Is this the way you talk to your savior?" Wu Chang frowned and said, "What do you mean?" Raymond said: "Do you need me to give you a hint? It was two nights ago." Two nights ago, it was the time when Wu Chang and others entered the copy plane. Seeing Wu Chang's expression change, Raymond knew what he remembered and continued: "If I hadn't released "Salted Fish" in time, you wouldn't have been able to escape that night. That was the only finished product I brought out of the Anthem Laboratory. I spent a lot of money to save you." When Fei Guang was chasing Booker and the others, Wu Chang had been hiding around. As Raymond said, if it weren't for the fish-shaped disqualified monster that stopped Fei Guang, Booker and the other three would have been in danger that night. Wu Chang was a little surprised. He didn't expect Raymond to see the players from the beginning. And from what Raymond said, today's encounter was not because he fished Raymond, but because the other party deliberately took the initiative to contact him. Interesting. Wu Chang was silent for a moment, then looked at Raymond solemnly and said, "Did you see it all?" Raymond shrugged and said, "To be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my naked eyes, I would have thought it was a crew filming a movie. " "Control plants, turn your body into mist, move as fast as lightning, and kill disqualified monsters with bare hands without high-energy weapons. You outsiders, each of you has unique skills. The guys in the Anthem Company who have undergone psychic stimulation are far inferior to you." Wu Chang did not speak, but looked at Raymond quietly, waiting for him to throw out his purpose. Raymond continued: "If I am not mistaken, you are two groups, the other group has an absolute advantage, and the four of you are being hunted by them."
Wu Chang nodded and said: "You can think so." Raymond did not continue to extend the topic. He changed the subject and suddenly focused on Wu Chang Zhenme. "I am very curious about you. Can you tell me how you cracked the automatic defense system of the Anthem Company and sneaked into Sean's house?" Wu Chang: "Just walk in as you saw." Raymond: "So are you helping Sean now? " Wu Chang nodded. Seeing that the conversation was directed to the intended direction, Raymond's smile brightened. "Then do you know that the guy who chased you that night also worked for Sean. They have performed very well in the past two days and have facilitated a large order. They are the hottest newcomers in the recent period of the Anthem Company." Wu Chang frowned, as if he had heard it for the first time, "How is this possible, are you sure?" "Sometimes the world is so small that two groups of people who are enemies of each other actually work under the same person." Raymond's tone became more and more calm, as if he had already grasped Wu Chang. "But five fingers have to be divided into long, short, thick and thin. The guy who chased you is now in the limelight of the Anthem Company and is highly valued by Sean. Promotion is just around the corner; the few of you can only stay in the streets and blindly search for an assassin that the Anthem Company cannot find. " "You say that if this goes on for a long time, if one day, the two of you meet, who will Sean help? " One side is a cash cow that can help Sean generate a lot of performance, and the other side is a cow that specializes in doing dirty work. Any fool knows who to choose. Raymond used his ability on Wu Chang, and at the same time approached Wu Chang, lowered his voice, and said in a bewitching tone: "Your enemies are in the Anthem Company, and my enemies also happen to be in the Anthem Company. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Why don't you and I join forces to bring down the Anthem Company together and get rid of your enemies by the way. " Raymond's hypnotic ability is invincible in the copy plane, but it is not enough for Wu Chang, whose will has reached 139. The hypnotic power is so weak that it is not enough to form a judgment on him. He was very tempted by Raymond's proposal of cooperation, and even brought Booker and others to lure Raymond out today with this idea. But Raymond's attitude at the moment did not satisfy him. It was time to let Raymond know who was the leader of this cooperation. He imitated Raymond's tone and said, "Is there a possibility that I will catch you and hand you over to the Anthem Company? For the Anthem Company, our value is higher than those people." Raymond was surprised at the failure of his hypnosis. He was already two meters close to Wu Chang, and slowly retreated. "I advise you not to do this. I came with good intentions. Conflicting with me will only benefit the Anthem Company and the people who are chasing you. " Wu Chang: "It's too late to leave now. " A golden light flashed behind Wu Chang, and he took out the golden throne and dragged Raymond directly into the Kingdom of Gold. Raymond felt a flash in front of his eyes, and when he came to his senses, he had come from the dark alley to a sea with heavy dark clouds and turbulent waves. He was standing on a three-meter-long life raft, which was his only foothold. Let alone escaping, if he moved a little more, he might be blown into the sea by the wind and waves.
Not far from him, a golden throne floated on the sea. Wu Changzhen was sitting on the throne, watching him frantically operating the life raft. Raymond was numb. He knew that he was in a hallucination, but this hallucination was too realistic. Whether it was the sea breeze blowing on his face, the cold sea water around him, or the slap he slapped on his face, they were all so real. He had received professional training and was also an expert in hypnosis. He always thought that no one understood hallucinations better than him. Until today, he realized that the hallucinations he had played before were all child's play. In the illusion created by Wu Chang, he tried thirty ways to get rid of the illusion, including but not limited to self-hypnosis, cognitive anchoring, interference with illusions and self-harm, but these methods were useless. Having tried all the methods to no avail, he could only choose the last way to get rid of the illusion. That is death. No matter what kind of illusion, it is based on deceiving consciousness. If the deceived consciousness dies, no matter how real the illusion is, it will collapse. Looking at Raymond who took out a pistol and pointed it at his forehead, Wu Chang couldn't hold it anymore. He didn't care about the concave shape, and teleported to Raymond and slapped his pistol away. "I brought you here not because I really want to take you to the Anthem Company, but because I want to tell you not to play those little tricks on me. The most important point of cooperation is equality and honesty." Raymond heard what Wu Chang meant. He tried to stabilize his body and said: "You mean, are you willing to cooperate with me?" Wu Chang said: "Of course, as you said, we have the same enemy." In fact, after learning that Raymond saw the player descending on the dungeon that night, he had the idea of getting rid of Raymond and throwing the body to the main body in exchange for the rights of the Anthem Company. But when Raymond proposed cooperation, this idea was dispelled by him. Because his title "Perfectionism" reacted, the hidden side quest was triggered. Wu Chang said: "There are only you and me here, don't worry about being heard by others, we can have a good chat. What is your real purpose in dealing with the Anthem Company?" Raymond hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to believe Wu Chang. The main reason is that the situation is stronger than the person. His most proud hypnotic ability was crushed by Wu Chang, and Wu Chang and others were extremely strong. Even if he committed suicide to get rid of the hallucination, he would not be able to escape today. He could only choose to believe Wu Chang. He took a deep breath, and in order to express his honesty, he took off the mask on his own initiative. "My name is Raymond, I am a double agent of the CIA and the Federal Internal Revenue Service. My current public identity is the assistant of the wealthy Moretz." Wu Chang frowned, "Then are you here to investigate the tax issues of the Anthem Company?" Raymond nodded first, then shook his head and said: "Yes and no. In recent years, a large number of weapons produced by the Anthem Company have appeared all over the world, including many countries isolated by federal trade. Among them are expensive high-energy weapons. These weapons are smuggled goods, not taxed, and the quantity of weapons is very large, which is definitely not the amount that ordinary second-hand dealers can get." "The Internal Revenue Service suspects that Anthem Company is seriously evading taxes, so I was asked to come to Weldo City to investigate everything. " "But I have another identity. I am actually an agent assigned by the CIA to the IRS. You know, although we are all federal agencies, we are not of the same mind, and it is normal to plant spies on each other."
"The CIA took this opportunity to let me investigate the progress of the original weapons made by Anthem Company at the same time. If possible, they also want me to steal some confidential technology." "So I have the support of both the CIA and the IRS behind me." Wu Chang roughly understood what Raymond meant, But this did not solve his problem, he asked: "If you just want to investigate taxes and steal technology, why do you frequently assassinate the executives of Anthem Company." Raymond smiled freely and said, "Because I am now an out-of-control agent." Wu Chang asked, "What do you mean?" Raymond said, "With the support of the IRS and the CIA, and with my ability, the situation is going more smoothly than I thought. Soon after I arrived in Weld City, I found a way to sneak into the important laboratory of Anthem Company." "There, I saw an employee of Anthem Company, who was transformed alive into Disqualified monster. It was not until then that I realized that the conspiracy theory was true, and the disqualified monster was really created by the Anthem Company. " "Do you know what this discovery means to a resident of Sid Town?" "It means that as long as the true face of the Anthem Company can be exposed and they can pay the price, I can abandon everything I have, trample on all rules, and give up any bottom line!" A line of prompts popped up in front of Wu Chang: "Hidden side mission: Help Raymond complete revenge, expose the truth of the Sid Town tragedy, and stop the real conspiracy of the Anthem Company. There is no penalty for mission failure. Do you accept the mission?"
