Little Chinatown, LA

The TV was broadcasting the shocking news about the Red Queen Racing Club, while Royce and Doom, who were tied up, were looking at the "crime" they had committed with despair on their faces.

"Damn it! I'm completely done for now!"

Doom sighed in despair towards the sky. His half-rotten red prosthetic eye was flickering with a dim light.

If he had known that he would be targeted by LA Company's Mann team, he should have given up this mission.

Now, the fat guy Lucius has not been kidnapped, and he himself has been caught by someone, while the real culprit behind the Tiger Claw Gang is still at large!

"What are you afraid of? If they really wanted to target us, they would have shot us already. There would be no need to bring us here."

Royce looked very calm. He knew that being brought here meant that he still had some value.

At least he won't die for a while.

If that wasn't the case, there would be no need for Li Ang to spend so much energy. It would have been much easier to just kill him on the spot.

"I saw your photo on TV. You are the boss of LA Company, Mr. Li Ang!"

Royce glanced at Leon not far in front of him with a crooked look and a crooked mouth, and his half-flesh and half-alloy throat squeezed out some hoarse mechanical sounds.

"What? As a company executive like you, are you planning to kneel down and lick the toes of the Night City Councillors like those company dogs?"

The relationship between the company and the NCPD and the Law Enforcement Department is basically that of grasshoppers on the same chain of interests. It is not surprising that Leon chose to stand on Lucius' side.

If nothing unexpected happens, Leon will just use his own head to please Lucius, and at the same time let the LA company gain exposure to the upper class dignitaries.

Thinking of this, Royce laughed like a "jiejie" and started to taunt Leon:

"I'm telling you, the real culprit behind this incident is not our Whirlpool Gang, nor is it the wild dogs of the Scavengers, but someone else!"

"Without my intelligence, that fat guy Lucius would still have died, and his death would have been even more miserable."

"Because you don't know who wants to kill him, nor do you know what their real purpose is!"

What Royce wanted to express in these words couldn't be clearer. This assassination case is very complicated and you, Leon, can't grasp it. If you want to know the details, you have to keep my life.

Seeing Royce's fierce appearance but weak heart, and his desperate attempt to survive, Leon couldn't help but smile.

This cyber madman is really stubborn. Even at this time, he is still thinking about how to threaten him. How did such an idiot survive until now?

Doom, on the other hand, was disheartened and kept his head down without saying a word, fearing that he would follow Royce and anger Leon.

"Royce, you seem to be too confident in your own value." Leon did not tolerate the arrogant Royce at all, and directly played the voice clip recorded by AI Delaman to Royce.

After hearing the content of his conversation with Doom, he was suddenly speechless. His already anxious brain immediately went into a shutdown mode and stopped working completely.

Royce was confused.

He had no idea where Leon got this recording. Could it be that LA Company also contracted the vehicle production of Delaman Company and installed eavesdropping devices in the cars?
"To tell you the truth, I already knew that you were a hired assassin by the Tiger Claw Gang. Unfortunately, you stupid thieves are not good at your job. You can't even outrun Lucius, a fat man weighing more than 200 pounds."

Leon exposed the truth of the incident without hiding anything, and responded to Royce with a murderous taunt:
"You wanted to kill people and leave a few Chinese dead bodies to pin the blame of the real murderer on the triads. This is a good plan. But now that the matter has been messed up, I guess no one will believe you if you say it wasn't done by your Uzumaki gang."

"As for who wants to kill Lucius, does it matter? Sorry, no one cares about that fat guy."

"Besides, you two, who are used as pawns by the Tiger Claw Gang, are qualified to negotiate terms with me? Do you think you are worthy?"

As soon as the words fell, Royce panicked.

At this point, no matter how stupid he is, he should realize that he should not have taken on such a mission from the beginning to the end, and he should not have pretended to negotiate terms in front of Li Ang.

Now things are messed up, and the real culprit behind the scenes, the Tiger Claw Gang, has gotten nothing wrong, but not only did they not get the money, they also had to take the blame for the Tiger Claw Gang and take bullets for them!
"Uh! Wait...!"

"Mr. Li Ang, we can actually provide a lot of valuable things to LA Company, such as... like the Tiger Claws guarding Arasaka, you must need some black gloves or something."

Royce changed his previous arrogant attitude and spoke respectfully to Leon.

It's all lies if he says he's not afraid of death. His brain hasn't been damaged by prosthetic devices, so how could he not be afraid of death?

In Night City, each gang has some cooperative interests with the company. In addition to the Tiger Claw Gang and Arasaka, some people from the Uzumaki Gang also have some dealings with Respectable Logistics.

For example, those old veterans from the Sixth Street Gang can even chat and laugh with the police from the NCPD and have business dealings with each other.

"Hahahaha! Did Mann blow your two brains out? The number one gang in Watson District is now Chen Tao's Triad. Who do you think the Whirlpool Gang is?"

Rebecca on the side sneered loudly without any concealment.

Royce was so angry that he gritted his teeth and wanted to crush Rebecca into meat paste after being mocked by Rebecca who looked like a little loli. But at this moment, he really couldn't find any reason to refute.

After all, what Rebecca said was right. The value of the two of them was pitifully small, or even nonexistent.

"No! I will soon be the leader of the Uzumaki Gang, the only boss!"

Royce said in a nervous tone:
"Isn't your LA company planning to build a factory? Watson's northern industrial zone is so large, Mr. Li Ang, you must have a dog to guard your house!"

"I can assure you that as long as I am here, people like the Wandering Family, the Scavengers, the Night Walkers, and the Slashers Society will never be able to come to Watson District!"
