Chapter 254 Lnterrogation (2/2)

Well, that just meant he wasn't as useful Aldrich could raise hiive away his Thanatos identity too quickly

"And you?" Aldrich tapped his pistol on the head of the guy he was restraining "You have anything to give us? Looks like your boss here is letting you down He says his crew's dead, but he doesn't even count you"? ??? a ???e?

"I'll tell! I don't give a fuck about this crew, I'm just a new recruit anyway!"

"That's what I like to hear," said Aldrich "Answer the questions I gave to your boss"

"We were out here cause we took a free for all contract floating around the Darknet Five hundred thousand credits just for useful tips on people co," said the underling, his voice panicked "That's ere on this road, cause it leads to a city, shi+t, as its name?"

? ?? ??-??? ??, ?,?,? "Redrock" Aldrich paused for a moment "It's just a tier 3 city Relatively uniher and better hunters than us have set up watches all around the tier 2 and 1 cities Plus, we're not that good of a crew to take on leftovers fro?" said Aldrich

"It's what the underworld calls the whole Red Circle disaster," said the underling "shi+t was fucking wild Biggest thing that happened to upset the balance since, like, Dracul going apeshi+t and co up one of the Dark Six And that was fifteen years ago"

Aldrich nodded Dracul, one of the world's few Sentinels A e He probably would join Aldrich's fight against the rest of the Dark Six "And as the contract from?"

"Contract was anonymous, but everyone knows it's probably a pissed off Dark Six"

"Any extra details on what the contract wanted? What are the criteria for useful tips?" said Aldrich

"Anyone and anything related to the Red Circle That's all we know! Five hundred thousand was just a shi+t ton of ht? shi+t, if you aren't related to any of this, no, even if you are, I can just pretend nothing ever happened I swear!"

"I don't think we're going to get anyuns," said Diauns They're just freelancers that have no real relation to the Dark Six

No real point of connection

Even if you thought about baiting the Dark Six by forcing theh toofor us to infiltrate the Dark Six"

"Yeah, that's what I figured too These guys are just one crew out of probably thousands just roahed "Well, atleast we know that there's more of them out there And that this contract's relatively recent

I would've heard about it froot uploaded within the past ten hours"

"If you want to get into a city safely, now is probably the best tih tiet in on this and set themselves up Especially not around a tier 3 city

The question is getting out Things ht be better to reconsider this trip entirely"

Aldrich shook his head From what V said, Randall, Elaine's adoptive father, was now close to death fro Developed when toxic particles in the air res, slowly rotting theet into Redrock now, Randall ood on Elaine's last wishes

"We're still going," said Aldrich "I told you, I have errands to run And a pro?" said Diauys h for decently strong hunters to start ca in and around even tier 3 cities"

"That's what I have you for, isn't it? You're supposed to be hed "I guess Yeah That is true And I don't think we'll ever run into a crew strong enough to take me out That's the nature of a free for all job like this You end up netting in a lot of crews, but most of them will be trash"

Diaed your CID cos too easy noouldn't it?" Aldrich looked at Diahed "That was a joke My techno is extremely capable and familiar with Z's CID template

She can remotely alter some details on our CIDs if we have to

I caninto and out of the city, but the fact of thein"

"I'll do ardless of what your decision is," said Diamondback

"Good" Aldrich looked down at the two fake cops "And now it's tiuys"

Diamondback nodded "Yeah"
