Chapter 160: Visitors from the Russian Federation

In order to demonstrate the quality of a professional team, Ling Luxian sent two big guys, Mann and Jack, to act as middlemen for Lucius Lane.

Mann's entire body is highly prosthetic, and after Victor's maintenance, all the old tattered parts have been replaced. The current prosthetics are generally at the level of the second generation. Some of the prosthetics, such as the projectile launcher, are installed with the third generation prosthetics.

Although Jack's prosthetics are not advanced, his muscles are not in vain. Since he followed Ling Luxian, he has been offered lucrative jobs, has money in hand, and naturally has excellent equipment. Compared with the Violent Terrorist Mobile Team, they are better. There is only one bad thing, Jack is too talkative, asking questions everywhere.

The two of them standing there were like an iron tower, giving a sense of security at first glance, and Lucius Lane was very satisfied with this.

Ling Luxian used the excuse of wanting to control the overall situation to get out of this situation, and Lucius Lane believed it. In fact, he was just hanging out with Gloria.

"Honey, I'm afraid I have a commission that I need you to take on."

Gloria put her arms around his waist from behind and whispered in his ear.

"Really?" Ling Luxian turned around and hugged her in his arms, "What is the commission?"

"Recently, a legendary middleman from the Russian Federation came to Night City. I think his name is Mikhail Akulov. Kang Tao sent a commission to get something from Akulov.

I think you are also from Aurora, so you will be interested in this commission."

Ling Luxian was indeed interested in this commission. Maozi had come, presumably because he felt the pressure from Kang Tao and wanted to seek weapons assistance from Arasaka.

As everyone knows, Kang Tao's business is Ling Luxian's business, and he did the commission.

"Send me the specific information."

Ling Luxian quickly got up, put on his clothes, and prepared to meet Akulov.

I don't know what's wrong with this guy. He didn't stay at the Blue Bi Building, but stayed at the Lidou Hotel instead. At a time like this, isn't it best to stay in a safer place?

"Then I'll leave first." Ling Luxian said to Gloria after getting the message.

"I'll wait for you to come back." He said and blew Ling Lu a kiss.

When I arrived at the Lido Hotel, I didn't say much to the front desk and just asked for a room.

"A penthouse suite."

"I'm sorry sir, the top floor is fully booked." The receptionist replied politely.

Ling Luxian wanted to get some information, so he pretended to be disdainful and said, "Really? Who can't afford it? I'll pay three times the price, and you can get that bastard out of here."

"Shh, keep your voice down." The receptionist said carefully, "This is not about money. The person who booked the top floor is a big shot in the Russian Federation."

As he spoke, he pointed at the four Russians sitting in the hotel lobby.

"Hey, did you see that? That's their agent. Keep your voice down, or they'll beat you to a pulp."

The receptionist looked at Ling Luxian as if he were an important customer and reminded him carefully.

"Tell me more specifically."

The receptionist looked embarrassed and said, "As you know, our hotel cannot disclose customer information at will. If you stay at our hotel, I believe you don't want to disclose your information, right?"

As expected, he couldn't get the answer, so Ling Luxian decided to give it a try. Since he couldn't get the answer, he just let it go.

"Then give me a top-floor suite." Ling Luxian transferred the money.

"Okay sir, please wait a moment."

After waiting for a while, the front desk clerk handed the room card to you with both hands.

After taking the room card, Ling Luxian walked to the elevator and went to the lounge behind the front desk.

As expected, reality is reality. How could someone leave the elevator card in the lounge and let a stranger go upstairs?

Enter the elevator, go to the 21st floor, and climb from your room to the balcony on the top floor.

Unfortunately, his eyes met with Akulov's.

"Who are you……"

Before Akulov could finish his words, Ling Lu knocked him down with a memory eraser.

Ling Luxian was embarrassed at this moment. He was used to being reckless and forgot to turn on the optical camouflage when sneaking. Fortunately, only Akulov was seen, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

The female bodyguard who was chatting with Akulov noticed something was wrong.

"Misha, what's wrong with you?"

The female bodyguard, who heard no response, immediately started fighting, picked up her weapon, and quietly walked towards Akulov's position.

When Ling Luxian heard the female bodyguard's nickname, Akulov, it was obvious that she was not just his bodyguard, but also his lover.

Then this will be easy to handle.

"Hello, ma'am. Sleep well."

Then he knocked the female bodyguard over and threw the two of them onto the bed.

I returned to the living room and got the chip the client needed, and the commission was completed easily.

Ling Luxian called Gloria and said, "I got the stuff."

Gloria said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be so fast."

"Ahem." Ling Luxian coughed twice awkwardly, "It was a quick commission, don't talk nonsense."

Gloria heard the implication and smiled with her hands covering her mouth: "Yes, it's quite fast to do the commission. Other things are very slow.

Let’s not talk about this any more. The client is waiting for you. I will send you the address right away.”

After getting the address, Ling Luxian smiled, and the highlight was about to begin.

When we arrived at the meeting place, Kang Tao's people were already waiting. I didn't expect that this group of guys were so impatient in the parking lot near the Lidou Hotel?

Ling Luxian walked to the car and looked inside, but was stopped by an agent standing nearby, speaking pure Cantonese.

"What are you looking at? Hand me the chip!"

Ling Luxian ignored him and turned to look at his old acquaintance.

"I didn't expect it would be you, Lao Huo."

The bodyguard at the side quickly drew his gun until Ling Luxian took off his disguise.

"Wow! Lao Ling, it's you! I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to see you today. Put down the gun quickly. This is our boss."

The person sitting in the car was Huo Xiu from Kang Tao Huo's faction. When he saw Ling Luxian for the first time, he felt that he was familiar with her. Only when he saw Ling Luxian take off his disguise did he recognize her.

Huo Xiu hurriedly got out of the car and gave Ling Luxian a hug.

"I didn't expect you to come to Night City, but I'm still not used to your Cantonese." Ling Luxian pretended to pick his ears.

"Hahaha, you're still the same." Huo Xiu immediately started speaking in official language, "I didn't expect that it was you who took care of this. I'm sorry to bother you this time. I'll remember this favor. Are you having a good time? When will you return to the company? We're all waiting for you to take charge of the situation."

"We don't need to talk about this. As for taking charge of the overall situation, you are here." Ling Luxian waved his hand, "Hey, what's going on over there? Why did the Russians send people to Night City?"

Huo Xiu also looked as if he had seen a ghost, "What a ghost, I don't know why, the news that we snatched the Arasaka Mass Accelerator was leaked.

Orbital Aviation held a meeting in Frankfurt, and the entire intelligence department is now in a state of panic. Seeing the urgency of the situation, the Russian Federation has increased its vigilance against us. This time we came to Night City to seek cooperation with Arasaka and get some weapons support. "

Hearing that the Frankfurt incident happened as expected, Ling Luxian's heart skipped a beat, as if he had tricked Kang Tao.
