Chapter 160 Intelligence transaction!

"Hello...V."

Bryce, who was finally free from the threat of death, was finally able to take a break. As a hacker agent of the company, his specialty was not close combat.

So when V pointed a gun at his head, Bryce was really scared to the point of peeing his pants pocket. He had never encountered such a thing before.

If the other party is really a ruthless killer, then his life will be completely over here!
Fortunately, the Internet monitoring company was well-known, and the agent named V had no intention of killing him.

"V, it seems that we are destined to be together, but this is not the place to talk. Why don't we go out and sit down and talk slowly?"

Bryce asked cautiously.

While V was talking on the phone with Leon, he secretly scanned V's physical information with his prosthetic eye device in an attempt to find out V's weaknesses.

But it wouldn't matter if he didn't scan. After the scan, Bryce was shocked to find that the V standing in front of him was a cyber psychopath with less than 10% of human content!
With top-notch prosthetic devices all over his body and an unknown device installed in his brain, he felt that V was a cyber monster that could go out of control at any time.

For a mentally ill person with powerful destructive power, try not to provoke the other person if you can speak nicely, otherwise there is no guarantee that the other person will do something extreme.

"Okay, then you come with me, and don't even think about running away halfway, or you know what will happen to you!"

V's warning was very useful to Bryce. After all, no one would mess with a cyberpsychopath.

"Okay... okay."

Bryce nodded hesitantly, then packed up his equipment and followed V out of the Voodoo Gang's secret basement.

Since the two had made sufficient preparations before the action, when they left the Voodoo Gang's territory, it was as smooth as when they first entered, and they basically did not encounter any trouble.

After wandering around for ten minutes, V and Bryce checked into a nearby motel.

After several rounds of conversations and tests, Bryce discovered that V seemed to be a very special corporate agent, and the overloaded prosthetic device did not seem to have much effect on him.

When V calms down, he can have basic conversations just like a normal person.

In this case, Bryce simply found a bench and sat down, ready to chat with V and do some intelligence trading or something.

"V, do you usually do business with others and make some extra money occasionally?" Bryce asked with a mysterious smile and a subtle expression.

"I don't understand what you mean by asking this question."

V glanced at Bryce coldly. He didn't want to chat with Bryce right now. He just wanted to complete the mission as soon as possible.

"Hey! Don't pretend with me. With the little salary you earn from the company, who would use it? Who would go out to work without doing a side job?"

Bryce grinned and continued to seduce V, saying, "V, since we both work for the company, why don't we share some useful information with each other? Maybe we can all make some money or something."

"What do you think?"

V frowned. He really didn't want to talk to Bryce about exchanging information. But just when he was about to say no to Bryce, Johnny suddenly said:

[V, let's first listen to what information this person wants to exchange with you. Maybe it will be of some use to both of us.]

Unlike V who showed impatience, Johnny Silverhand was quite interested in the information exchange that Bryce mentioned.

Maybe they can actually find out something valuable, such as intelligence information about Relic chips.

V nodded thoughtfully. What Johnny said made sense. Since he had nothing to do right now, he might as well try to dig out some new information from the other party.

"Haha! Bryce, you dare to sell out the company's intelligence. Aren't you afraid that people from the company will come and cause trouble for you?"

V still maintained a cold expression. He was deliberately testing the other party. Who knew if this guy really intended to exchange intelligence information.

However, in the face of V's clumsy probing tactics, Bryce just shook his head earnestly and said, "V, I'm not the only one who sells out the company's internal information."

"All the companies you can think of actually have intelligence traders like me in more or less. This is a mutually beneficial business and no one can stop it."

“Even the most powerful person you can think of can’t stop this business.”

"This is human nature, and it will not change because of someone's will. As long as they are normal people, they will definitely let this business continue."

The reason why Bryce is so fearless is that he knows many intelligence trading members from other companies, and he even knows a lot of agents from the New American Intelligence Agency!

This huge intelligence exchange network binds agents from various companies together, and something called "interest" unites them.

"It seems that you have sold out internal information of the Internet surveillance quite a lot. In that case, what price do you plan to offer for the intelligence transaction with me?" V asked, pretending to be interested. When Bryce saw that the other party was already in the mood, he also let go and introduced his own transaction standards in detail.

The larger the company, the more valuable its internal intelligence is, such as LA Corporation, Arasaka, and the European Community.

Of course, there is also some secret intelligence from unknown organizations that is also quite valuable, such as the intelligence from the CIA and Aguilar.

In short, everything in this world has its price. As long as you can afford the money, you will not have to worry about not being able to buy what you want.

"V, if you want to make a fortune, it would be best to provide some inside information about big companies, such as the inside information of LA companies."

Even in the empty room, Bryce still lowered his voice as usual and spoke to V in a very mysterious tone.

Obviously, he is an old hand in this business.

When talking about LA Company, V's curiosity was suddenly aroused, and he immediately asked the other party: "Why, is the internal intelligence of LA Company very valuable?"

"Of course! You don't know, LA company recently released some polymer, and they are going to hold a press conference on the Sky-Sky No. 1 airship. Just this simple piece of information was sold at a whopping price of 500,000 Euros here!"

When talking about this, Bryce showed a look of deep pain and grief. He beat his chest and sighed:

"That guy was a rookie who had just entered the industry. He usually did some cleaning work in a company in LA. He just happened to hear someone talking about this topic, and ended up selling it for a lifetime of money!"

Hearing this, V's brows began to frown. Judging from the situation, there must be a lot of people leaking information in the LA company.

People die for money and birds die for food. Since the internal information of LA company can be sold at such a high price, there will definitely be many people who will take the risk.

If this continues for a long time, the LA company will be infiltrated by this group of people and become a hornet's nest!
"Then what? Is that person still in the LA company now?" V continued to ask. He was very curious about who that person was.

"Hey, of course he's gone."

Bryce took out a Marlboro from his pocket, lit it up slowly, and after puffing out smoke for a while, he slowly said:

"That idiot wanted to stay in the LA company to eavesdrop on intelligence, but he was arrested the next day. If it were me, I would have stopped the fucking thing a long time ago."

"Do you really think that the anti-eavesdropping personnel of large companies are all idiots? It's not every day that a blind cat encounters a dead mouse."

"People who are too greedy will never have a good ending!"

Seeing that V seemed to know some information about LA Company, Bryce smiled and stepped forward to ask tentatively:
"V, the price of LA company's intelligence is sky-high now. If you know any inside information, you might as well tell us."

"You have the information, I have the sales channels, let's make a fortune together!"

"I have always been honest and trustworthy, and I have never owed anyone a penny. There are too few agents in LA companies who can get in touch with them now."

"Scarcity makes things valuable. Now is a good time to make money!"

From Bryce's vivid description, V basically understood Bryce's background. This guy is just a greedy information dealer.

He is an elite monster. No wonder he can talk so much. He probably relies on this sharp mouth to fool people and provide him with intelligence.

"LA Company... I know that the airport in Morro Rock has started to operate, and several manned spacecraft have officially connected with the Crystal Palace. Is this useful intelligence?"

V was not in a hurry to trade intelligence with Bryce, but instead deliberately teased the other party first.

"Fuck! V, do you think I don't watch the news? This matter has been everywhere for a long time, and it's not worth anything."

Bryce clicked his tongue with disdain. With the help of the High Knights, the airport was completed in less than three months.

In addition, LA also announced that anyone who comes to the airport, regardless of their identity, will not be subject to ground laws.

Because the airport follows the laws of the Crystal Palace, the rich are supreme.

So recently more and more fugitives and thugs have been pouring into Night City, trying to buy tickets at the airport and leave the earth by rocket.

For evildoers, a space shuttle ticket to the Crystal Palace is the best way to launder money and evade the law.

Of course, the prerequisite is that these fugitives are not wanted by the company, otherwise they will be stopped by security soldiers as soon as they enter the airport.

As for the penniless thugs, they can only lie dormant in Night City, wait for one day to rob a rich person, and then buy tickets to go to the Crystal Palace to work illegally and make money. This is also a good idea.
