Night Hacker Chapter 116: Visitors from Shouhui Street
"Night Hacker ()"
"Let's go, let's go to Kabukicho!"
In the early morning of this day, Elizabeth learned the latest news at the headquarters of the Red Rain Investigation Team.
Last night, the Metropolitan Police Department carried out anti-criminal cleaning in many districts, especially in Kabukicho, and the target of the cleaning was street children.
I promised to give wild dogs and street rats a more relaxed environment and more opportunities to obtain legal status, just talking.
She called the Metropolitan Police Department, and the children were sent to the orphanage in Kabukicho. But now she no longer has a good impression of the so-called welfare institutions, saying that they let children learn and be self-reliant, but their living conditions have always been worrying.
She also asked about the situation of Sophia's disappearance. There is no new progress, so let's listen to the master.
Elizabeth wanted to conduct an interview and investigation in the welfare home, but the department of Santo Company, the operating capital, refused.
When she was puzzled and angry, she decided to go to the field to learn about the situation last night and the attitude on the street.
She, Ayako, Master Wuzhen and others took a work commercial vehicle together from Etani District to Kabukicho.
Kabukicho is very large and is one of the oldest districts in Liuguang City, with many well-known neighborhoods.
Caoyuan Street, Shouhui Street, Liufang Street, Qiuye Street, Shenbao Street, Renqing Street...
Each Yakuza hall is in charge of a well-known block, and each block has many well-known places and people.
"Miss Elizabeth, where are we going?" asked the driver of the security team.
"Shouhui Street." After a little thought, Elizabeth chose this block.
Last night's anti-criminal cleaning operation was the most intense in Caoyuan Street and Shouhui Street, probably because a audition venue for "Liuguang City Talent Show" was set between these two streets. The visual hall wants to improve security around the venue.
She chose Shouhui Street, perhaps because the name sounds good.
When the business car drove through San Manga District and entered Kabukicho, the street scene outside the car was just as she had imagined.
This is not the first time Elizabeth has set foot in Kabukicho. Tall buildings and wooden buildings coexist here. Umbrella walks by.
But as long as you stay for a while and look a little more, you will find the differences in each block.
Caotuan Street has more classical buildings and traditional industries, Jimbo Street has many bookstores, and Akiba Street is the base of otaku.
As for Shouhui Street, there are more folk shops, theaters and other entertainment venues, and it seems to be more noisy than anywhere else, with people coming and going.
“Li Cai Club”, “Elephant Bar”, “HellGames”, “Ji楽クラブ”, “RamenNoodle”
The business car stopped at a section of Shouhui Street, and Elizabeth got out of the car and stood on the busy street.
While she was looking around, many passers-by glanced at the red commercial vehicle and the group of people. This was not a familiar face on the street, but the red-haired girl was recognized by some passers-by immediately.
A person who looks so beautiful will be deeply impressed after seeing him once, and this person has been in the limelight recently.
"Elizabeth Sterling!"
"It's her, yes."
The young girl in her early twenties, with short red hair and a slender figure, was wearing a brown coat, a colorful printed shawl and flared jeans, a small satchel, and a sheathed electronic sword in her hand. .
This young lady has no makeovers, tattoos, messy decorations, or lavish jewelry.
Simple yet elegant.
"Here she comes, here she comes! Be careful, be careful of this guy, the daughter of the Seth Group!"
At this time, the shabby-dressed low-tech girl who was active in this area walked up quickly, and was separated by Seth's security personnel. The girl pointed at Elizabeth Sterling and shouted to the passers-by:
"They're the ones who are creating a lot of electronic waste that we don't need and turning us into idiots!
"Our human nature is constantly obliterated by electronics. People no longer talk face to face, but through wires and screens. One day people will stop talking, and even if they sit face to face, they will be silent. , holding electronic waste and talking across the screen, parents and children, relatives and friends, all silent.
"Crazy, this city is making everyone mentally ill! Save the kids, save us!"
As the low-tech girl yelled, more passers-by cast their gazes, and more people stopped in their tracks.
Elizabeth was still slightly stunned, when suddenly there was the roar of a motorcycle engine, and a group of gangster men drove past quickly on the road, almost hitting the car and people of the Red Rain Investigation Team.
As she looked, she saw flags fluttering on those black motorcycles, with "Hirata Group" printed on them.
There are more and more unfriendly eyes around.
Every time Elizabeth went to a district, she would find herself an outsider, a person from another world, as if she didn't understand anything. Kabukicho is different from Boxing District and Walled City District.
How could she blame them, they just experienced an invasion of the streets by banks and violent machines last night, how were those children treated?
Children, the future of Liuguang City, their future.
"Hello everyone." Elizabeth looked around at the people, "We are the Red Rain Investigation Team, here to investigate what happened last night."
"We need to ask the person involved in the investigation, right?" A homeless man passing by said, "Did you see any little ghosts on the street?"
Elizabeth remained silent. Indeed, the figure of "Street Rat" could not be seen through the car window just now.
She didn't see it when she came to Kabukicho before, because the surrounding area was cleared by security personnel.
However, she knew from some videos that there are always swarms of street rats running around here. come together.
Street children have no fixed place to live, they just walk around, and when they find this place is good, they stay there.
But now, although the streets are lively, they are deserted.
She only hopes that one day in the future, there will be no more street children on the street, but it is not because of this kind of cleaning.
"Let's go, I don't need you." Several gangsters walked by, "There is no need for Seth's people in Yakuza."
"Don't check, it's useless, you might as well go to Licai and order a cowherd for entertainment."
Elizabeth did not refute when she heard the words, but since the last time she was in the Happy Spring Water Club in Xuanyuan District, she did not go to such a custom place again. She has been busy with various things, and redemption is not that simple.
When she has time, she still wants to go, there is knowledge of that kind of place.
The curiosity of passers-by towards this golden hero did not last long, let alone the madness caused by Chiba Gibson, so they dispersed, and some continued to watch with cold eyes.
"Santou Seth, Seth Santo, man-eating machines, machines eating people!" The low-tech girl was still shouting.
Elizabeth asked the security personnel not to drive her away, and let her speak. The investigation team is the outsider here.
On the road over there, a tall blind entertainer with no pupils played the guitar and sang rough songs.
There are call girls leaning against the outer wall of the club, smoking cigarettes, and looking at them with shrugging eyes.
Suddenly, if Elizabeth sensed it, she turned her head and saw a young man in sportswear hurriedly squeezed into the crowd after glancing at them. cup.
She didn't care, the attitude of most people on the street~IndoMTL.com~ was both curious and afraid of her.
Ayako and Xiaomei dispersed their actions. Elizabeth led the team and began to walk around the street to investigate. They went to several convenience stores, butcher shops and restaurants. After asking some people, she could clearly feel that there was something undercurrent here. surge.
This is very similar to the feeling given to her by the street people before the Boxing District riots and the Walled City Festival.
She saw a hint of anger on the faces of many people.
I also saw a lot of graffiti, a lot of torn and rewritten posters:
[The Murder Show in Liuguang City, the championship bonus is as high as 30 million! 】
【Liuguang City Murder Show, the next killer is you! 】
The talent show has been changed into a murder show everywhere.
"There are indeed weirdness here, all kinds of weirdness." Jianbao also said, "There is only a thin line between weirdness and truth."
At this time, when Elizabeth turned to the road in front of Licai Club, Ayako came back to meet her.
"Not all street rats have been captured. I saw a few in the alley over there, and they are hiding more secretly for the time being."
"Great, take me there!" Elizabeth immediately said happily.
"I have another discovery." Ayako said again, "I saw a member of the Douji Black Panther Gang. This is not the boxing area. When the Black Panther Boy appears in other areas, there will be two if there is one , there are thousands of them.”
Elizabeth's heart skipped a beat, vaguely aware of what this meant.
Since there are only three audition venues for Talent Show in the whole city, many people from all districts gather in Kabukicho, including people from the boxing district, so it is not surprising that one or two black panther boys will appear.
But Ayako said so, and she still has the feeling after her investigation...
Moreover, how could the Black Panther Boys sign up for the talent show? They wanted to participate, and they did so in their own way.
