Chapter 292 What does NCPD protect?
Watson North District Blockade, NCPD has been notified to set up a blockade here as always, heavy armored vehicles and police drones are already in place.
But they were not notified to enter.
If nothing else goes wrong, the Terrorist Mobile Team will intervene immediately. Once they deal with the most threatening guy, the NCPD will move in to finish.
River was standing in front of the car. His police rank had been promoted from detective to sergeant.
Although the process was somewhat tortuous, looking at the whole process, River, as a police detective, tracked down the Tiger Claw criminal gang and eliminated the heavyweight leader Shobo Jotaro, and the whole incident also involved a lot of corruption within the agency.
This means that he doesn't want to participate in these struggles, otherwise he would bite the bullet and take half a year's salary and borrow some money to visit the director. It would be more than enough for him to be promoted to police superintendent.
Because of this, his old partner Lao Han was sighing in the car right now--
The police rank was only a small promotion, and there was almost no change in position.
"Alas, the best opportunity was missed all because of someone's stupid head!
Now, guard the whirlpool gang for a gun battle. Oh no, it’s an artillery battle now. Take pity on my old arms and legs, don’t get killed by stray bullets.”
River folded his hands and said helplessly: "Can you be more serious? How long have you been talking about this!"
"Don't you think about it? I missed a good opportunity this time. I don't know when I will be promoted next time. Maybe
There's still something to be gained from catching the lizard man! But I'm afraid that if you are like this, even if you catch the lizard man, you will only be promoted to one and a half levels! "
River glanced at Lao Han and took two steps forward, further away from the car.
Seeing this, Old Han became louder and continued to mutter:
"Oh, some people never cherish the opportunity for promotion."
River walked to the newcomer on duty next to him. Although his position had not changed, the promotion of the police rank gave him more people.
Some new people.
This newcomer was quite young, having just graduated from the police academy. The body armor, copperhead rifle, and police hat were all meticulously placed where they should be, just like their meticulous owners.
Seeing River approaching, he immediately put the gun to his side and saluted River.
"Okay, we don't pay attention to these things on site."
"Okay sir!"
The newcomer held the gun to his chest again. River looked at him like this and wanted to say something but couldn't -
Especially when he saw the way Lao Han looked at him: He was like this back then!
It seems really stupid now.
"Do you smoke?" River took out a cigarette case from his pocket, but the newcomer shook his head, "It's better if you don't smoke. Elmar's name is hard to pronounce.
Were you working as an investigator before? Take the initiative to transfer positions? Why, are you uncomfortable working there? "
Elmar's cheerful expression showed some gloom. He nodded: "We won't let you investigate this, and we won't let you investigate that. It's better to go to the streets and be a patrolman."
River felt more and more that this kid looked a lot like himself.
As an investigator, you are not allowed to investigate anything, but in fact, even if you are transferred to a patrol officer, you can't do anything.
Most of the time it's just cleaning the battlefield.
So River patted Elmar on the shoulder: "Actually, we patrol officers are about the same. You'd better be mentally prepared."
"But at least the bonus will be easier to get, right? If someone commits a crime, we will shoot directly. The leader will not call me to ask me not to shoot, right?"
That was hard to say, River could only smile bitterly.
Elmar didn't notice the reluctance in River's smile, and continued to say excitedly: "And you might see the awesome Mackinac on the street.
Sir, there are rumors in the bureau that you know the mercenaries on the legendary Mackinac. What are they like? What happened that night? "
"Let me tell you, great success!" Old Han shouted loudly in the car, "Without the lizard people, I guess there would be ten or eight Mackinacs, and you might still have a chance to be promoted!
But, go ahead and dream! River! We have no chance! "
As soon as he finished speaking, a Mackinaw suddenly turned out from the end of the deserted street.
Mackinac is just a pickup truck product of Tingwei Company. It has been mediocre for so many years, but it is different now.
Especially when this car appears in the most tense and popular area of Night City.
The policemen who were still waiting for instructions around the blockade became obviously nervous. They unconsciously put away their smiles and straightened their bodies.
Mackinac had never had a direct confrontation with the NCPD, but just looking at the car made them nervous.
But it's not just one--
One after another, the lights overshadowed the street lights, slowly and firmly heading towards the blockade!
It's a whole convoy!
It’s eight Mackinacs out of ten!
The car lights covered the lighting, but as the car lights passed through the lighting area of the street lights, these lights hit the vehicle-mounted heavy machine gun, showing the barrel and gun body one by one.
Then there are the distinctive graffiti on the car body, as well as the words that the graffiti uniformly bears: Adecado.
Of course, there are also a large number of burger sandwich elements, which are a popular element in Night City recently.
[NCPD Operator: Attention all units, there is a situation in this area. Witnesses said they observed a large number of armed vehicles driving in a convoy on the road. 】
[NCPD operator: Vehicle model Mackinac Larimore, illegal modification]
[Police officer: The target situation is updated to 10-23, repeat, the target is at the scene, 10-20. 】
The communication channel fell silent.
"Gu"
One policeman swallowed and didn't know what to do.
They looked at each other and read similar emotions in their colleagues' eyes, shock and confusion, as well as uneasiness.
The air seemed to freeze.
The armored Mackinaw in the lead slowly stopped in front of the blockade. River patted Elmar who was stiff: "That's about it."
After saying that, he put on his hat and walked towards Mackinac.
【Ding dong--】
[Correspondent: Burger King]
[Burger King: Chief River, you haven’t seen your promotion in a few days? 】
[River: You're not here to show off your team, right? Where's your pass? 】
[Burger King: It should be soon. 】
[NCPD Police Channel Communication]
[NCPD Operator: Attention all police officers in this area, further action orders have been received. 】
[NCPD Operator: Please release the following NCPD outsourcing member vehicles, vehicle numbers: NC-1102, NC-1277]
River quickly received the release notice, and the policemen behind him were visibly relieved and relaxed a little.
He took a few steps back, and the NCPD armored vehicles and mechas waved to him and stepped aside.
Wait a minute.
River suddenly saw two tattered Columbus freighters following at the end of the convoy. The bumpers were even crooked.
[River: Why are there two broken vans following you guys? Is it your person? 】
[Burger King: Yes, the car is a little dilapidated, but the person is pretty nice. 】
The van also drove slowly in front of River, because it was an ordinary car. Through the glass, River saw David and Mann inside smiling at him.
That smile was so innocent that River's dusty memory was suddenly awakened:
It seems like I’ve seen this kid before!
It seems that I saw it when the bad land was sealed off last time!
The van drove through the blockade. River looked at the van and silently remembered the faces of David and others.
Tagged Burger King Guy.
As the Mackinac convoy passed the blockade, the frozen air began to flow with the traffic--
River turned his head and saw the NCPD watching the Mackinaw convoy enter the chaotic area.
I felt ridiculous in my heart: He was the police, but now he had to find an outsourcer to solve the problem.
Who are the defenders of order in Night City? What exactly does the NCPD defend?
The convoy passed and the blockade was slowly restored, and River didn't want to think about this problem anymore.
River opened the car door, got into the car, and teased Old Han: "I just counted, there are fourteen Mackinacs in total."
"You" Old Han held back for a long time, "Awesome!"
Unfortunately, they all knew that Mackinac had nothing to do with them this time.
"But it seems that this is the end of the matter, and the Terrorist Mobile Team is no longer here."
boom!
Before he finished speaking, the fourth giant mushroom cloud rose tonight, lighting up the entire Watson North District!
[NCPD operator: The threat level in the area continues to rise, and the violent terrorist mobile team has been dispatched! 】
River suddenly raised his head, and five Manticore aerial vehicles passed high in the sky!
The Terrorist Mobile Team is also dispatched!
