Chapter 12 NO.000c: Complementary Thinking

The Dark Blue Interval Bar is located in the central block on the basement level of the Nord resettlement area.

The basement level is a subtle boundary. Upwards, it is a livable area that can feel the sunshine and requires a formal registration certificate to live in. There, the interim government in the resettlement area maintains a considerable degree of law and order—parents can let their children go to and from school alone without putting bulletproof boards in their schoolbags.

Further down, there are "pure and honest" underground neighborhoods, where gang violence has replaced the absence of the government and maintained the bad order. People are like garbage piled up all year round, layer upon layer, pile upon pile. And because of the gradually scarce resources and the harsh environment, the lower the level is, the more the evil of human nature is fermented, which is pungent and unpleasant. Everyone is struggling, trying to climb out of that bottomless cesspit.

The negative floor, as a buffer zone that communicates with the above-ground and underground areas, is fortunate to be able to maintain a certain degree of order. The public service part of the resettlement area is opened for this layer, and the law enforcement agency is not just a decoration here.

However, on the other hand, these conveniences do not belong to all residents here—only government employees or corporate employees can enjoy the convenience of clean distilled water, stable power supply of the Fusion Bureau, or other infrastructure.

Therefore, the mentality of the residents on the first floor is often subtle. Most of them look down on those residents born on the ground floor of the resettlement area, thinking that those people are just parasites lying on the entire resettlement area and sucking blood. Ninety percent of the government's budget is spent on to them, but failed to produce a single successful business and create more jobs for decades.

But on the other hand, they also look down on those subterranean areas that are conceited and descended from the first floor. They believe that the people there are immoral, depraved superstitions and subcultures are rampant. Especially the bottom few layers, they behave like wild beasts, and there are many scary urban legends about the bottom layers. When most people mention the residents of the bottom layers, they will regard them as half-orcs.

From this point of view, the negative floor is actually the area in the entire Nord resettlement area that has the strongest sense of identity with the concept of the interim government.

But in any case, when you come to this level, you can't act too ostentatiously.

Jiang Zhou thought to himself after sorting out the information about the first floor.

In Liao Qi's memory, the law enforcement department on the first floor even had a special task force to stop criminals committed by mediators. Even when the Icarus Liberation Front has the greatest influence, it will try to avoid making any big disturbances on the basement floor.

But right now I don't have the ability to make a big noise...

Laughing at himself, Jiang Zhou put the Scorpio pistol on Old Snake's waist through his coat, signaling him to move on.

The appearance of the bar in the dark blue area is the same as Liao Qi remembered, it looks like a huge dark blue fish tank. Seaweed swings back and forth in the glass wall, and genetically modified sea fish exuding colorful fluorescence swim happily.

"Mr. Liao, we've arrived... But it's a little bad to walk in like this with a gun against me?"

The old snake looked at the fishbowl-like bar, and turned back to Liao Qi nervously.

"Open the call channel."

Jiang Zhou said briefly.

With a "beep", the call channel of Lao Snake was launched on Liao Qi's visual panel.

"You go in first, and I will watch you from the sidelines. After seeing each other, you know what to talk about and how to talk about it, so I won't repeat it."

"I understand, Mr. Liao, I won't..."

The old snake said quickly.

But Jiang Zhou raised his hand to interrupt:

"Listen to me, I want to remind you: if you turn off the communication channel, you die; if you or Zhu Lin open the communication shield of the box, you die; if I notice that you are trying to send a message to the other party, you Die; if the conversation between you makes me feel uncomfortable, you die... Did I make it clear enough?"

When these words came out, Jiang Zhou himself was a little surprised at his cruelty and arrogance.

It seems that when manipulating Liao Qi's body, he will inevitably be influenced by the character of the other party. Liao Qi, who grew up in the underground streets of the resettlement area, naturally carried a lot of ruthlessness and cunning unique to the bottom. Of course, there is also the tendency to be impulsive - otherwise he wouldn't do the stupid thing of grabbing the gun directly when his head was pointed at.

But now, after he took over Liao Qi's body, the ruthlessness and cunning that originated from his nature have not disappeared, but will be revealed naturally when he acts and speaks - in a sense, this In fact, it is also a good thing. If he meets an acquaintance of Liao Qi's past, he doesn't need to deliberately pretend, he just needs to show a natural reaction, and he won't have doubts about convenience.

On the other hand, Liao Qi's character, after combining with Jiang Zhou's usual rational way of thinking, also produced some kind of wonderful chemical reaction...

Jiang Zhou spat out the chewing gum he had been chewing, then took out two low-velocity soft warhead explosives from his pocket, and took out the plasticine-like charge inside. Then, he wrapped the explosives with chewed gum like a dumpling, and buried a fuze chip the size of a quarter fingernail in it by the way.

"Turn around."

Jiang Zhoudao.

Being pointed at by Scorpio, the other party turned around cooperatively. Jiang Zhou twisted the simple sticky explosive into strips and stuffed it into the brain-computer interface at the position of the opponent's occipital bone, and then sealed the brain-computer interface completely with a leather sticker.

After checking left and right several times, Jiang Zhou nodded in satisfaction, and patted him on the shoulder to signal him to turn back.

The old snake who turned around had cold sweat on his forehead. His pupils were almost trembling looking at Liao Qi, his lips trembled as if he wanted to curse something, but he didn't dare to curse.

Jiang Zhou stopped the smile on the corner of his mouth and said:

"After the matter is completed, just find a high-level prosthetic doctor to help you take this thing out. But before that, as long as I am like this..."

As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up and made a "press" motion, and then opened his clenched fist.

"Boom~"

"do you understand?"

The old snake swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a pale face, then gritted his teeth and said:

"Understood."

…………

Looking at the back of the other party walking in, Jiang Zhou was sure that neither he nor Liao Qi could come up with such a simple and easy-to-use threat method alone.

When he was on the street, Liao Qi, who used to break the bones of gangsters' entire hands with a rock breaking hammer one by one, was able to be so ruthless. But with his straightforward and emotional personality who likes to act first and think later, he must not have thought of such a delicate plan.

As for Jiang Zhou himself, although he has developed the habit of thinking of using everything available around him to solve problems, as a promising young man who grew up in a sound legal society, in the past nearly thirty years of his life, he has also It's just something that may be illegal to upload your own digital personality to the Internet.

Expecting him to come up with such a cruel threat plan is a bit too embarrassing for him.

Therefore, the "controllable elements" launched through the "Janus program" are not only a body for oneself to control, but also a complement to the way of thinking?

Jiang Zhou thought to himself.

"Old Snake, over here, I'll treat you to a drink."

At this time, the voice of the target of this trip came from the communication channel.

Jiang Zhou, whose thoughts were interrupted, slightly lowered the brim of his hat, and followed the bustling crowd to the bar in the dark blue area.
