You've got to be kidding. KE could have busted that place and found some politician sitting next in the middle of a mass murder just watching a trid? Man, I almost wish that had happened just to see what the media would have had to say about that and the politicians PR machine responses to that, could have been an entertaining week.
Silk had been captured, humiliated, shot, insulted, electrocuted and most likely sold out today; only to find out that the guy she'd been looking forward to play with for information and payback was just bait. Her mood darkened further.
She spoke out loud but sent the message over the comms, ignoring the presence of the guy sitting next to her. "Unless anyone has anything more to say to this absolute waste of time, I'm all for giving him some Laés. Conscious was not a requirement, if this guy gets out of that clinic alive and remembers anything about tonight, he's got the resources to make things very unpleasant for us. But in the end he's just a piece of bait and someone pretending to be him is giving the real orders. That captured merc, good thinking taking that guy alive Joe. Hopefully he did some better legwork than the hacker or is more involved in this than just some gun for hire. Or he was just as fooled as the hacker. Let's tear his brain apart regardless. "
She sounded more than a little angry, it was hard to make out if that last sentence was meant as a figure of speech.
