The Daily Life Of A Cyberpunk Magician-Chapter 561 - 293: Evon Miscalculated_2

Although the president had secretly heightened his alertness, he did not want his image within the company to be affected in the slightest.

"Pretty much," Fox agreed, "Although he still exposes himself to us, it is now much harder to enter the Seges Building and capture him."

"No worries," Jiang Shu said, his tone full of confidence, "You all try to collect some of his daily information, like habits, to analyze his behavior patterns. If Gary can’t catch him, I will handle it myself."

Upon hearing this, Ancient Snake and Painter both looked up at Jiang Shu.

Their understanding of Jiang Shu was limited, having only heard snippets about his reputation from Fox.

A man who could do anything.

Not just someone who created the illusion of being capable of everything on stage, but someone who truly could do anything.

Kidnapping the president from the tightly secured Seges Building would undoubtedly be an extremely difficult task, but now Jiang Shu spoke of it casually, as if it were a mere triviality.

Of course, they didn’t think Jiang Shu was bluffing—his "matter of course" stemmed from his actual capabilities.

"Okay," Fox did not say much. Handing over the troublesome matters to Jiang Shu would ease his mind significantly, and he was not worried about Jiang Shu’s safety. In Lonely City, there was no one who could harm Jiang Shu.

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now," Jiang Shu told the others.

Fox nodded his head, but suddenly frowned slightly and said, "Wait, there is one more thing."

"Hmm?" Jiang Shu looked at him, puzzled.

"F District’s Evon Garcia has put out a word recently, seeking a performer with the surname Jiang. He has a favor to ask, with a generous reward afterward," Fox continued, "He wasn’t specific, but I think he’s referring to you."

"Mm," Jiang Shu nodded, "I have met him once, but we aren’t close."

It was just about giving him some Black Silver.

But it was because of this batch of Black Silver that he was considering meeting Evon Garcia.

People who are foolishly rich and overly confident like him usually offer substantial rewards, and he might just freeload off them once again.

"There’s nothing else," Fox continued, "But since you are prepared to take action, Ancient Snake can return to the Seventh District."

"Mm?" Ancient Snake suddenly turned to look at Fox. His tasks in the Thirteen District had been mere menial labor, nothing satisfying.

And now, when the crucial moment was approaching, to make him leave...

Wasn’t that making things difficult for people?

Perhaps noticing Ancient Snake’s reluctance, Fox preemptively said, "Your one-week leave from the hospital is almost up, and there’s no reason for you to stay in the Thirteen District."

He glanced at Ancient Snake, his tone flat, "Don’t leave any loose ends, don’t treat the people at the Seventh District Police Station as fools. You mustn’t forget how Mu Jin ended up as she is today."

"Alright, alright, I got it," Ancient Snake said hurriedly, waving his hand not wanting to talk further with Fox, "Why do you always nag like an old woman?"

"As long as you know," Fox shrugged, adding nothing more.

In Jiang Shu’s absence, he was the de facto temporary controller. While Lang Tai was directly under Jiang Shu and beyond his command, he held sway over both Ancient Snake and Painter.

"Fox is right; we mustn’t take the Seventh District Police Station lightly," Jiang Shu chuckled, then waved at everyone, "I’m leaving now. You all should get some sleep too, and gather the internal information of the Seges Building for me as soon as possible."

Fox possessed hypnotic skills that were nothing short of magical, and his ability in infiltration and information gathering was not much less than his.

After speaking, Jiang Shu walked out the door and quickly disappeared into the night.

Evon Garcia entered his own room, sat on the lounge chair, allowed his gaze to unfocus while his thoughts gradually drifted away.

The Thirteen District was about to descend into chaos.

Because he could feel that some discordant voices had arisen in this EF area.

He knew very well that whether the Thirteen District would descend into chaos depended on the EF area.

The EF area bore half of the dark aspects of the Thirteen District. Whenever apparent upheavals were about to occur in the Thirteen District, they usually started here.

Now, he controlled half of F District, and while a God stood behind him unseen, he still sensed some turmoil internally.

He also understood where this turmoil stemmed from—indeed, it was within the Social Sequence, specifically, within the police stations of the Social Sequence.

Trouble within a police station would lead to disorder in F District.

However, Evon Garcia didn’t know exactly what the problem was, as his planted informant within the police station had suddenly disappeared, severing all ties with him.

Leaving him with just one last message.

Tang Hexun had been dismissed.

Frankly, Evon was not overly pleased upon hearing this news.

He had gotten used to Tang Hexun’s way of handling things, which was why he had been able to survive under Tang’s jurisdiction for so long.

Now that Tang Hexun had been dismissed, he felt a little apprehensive about the future.

In this situation, his so-called backers wouldn’t be able to help him either.

After all, for that group, helping him was only ever about profiteering; getting their hands dirty for the sake of his little money was out of the question.
