Chapter 2: Going to prison
"Sir excuse me for being rude, but can you please tell me if the captain knew about this plan too."
"Yes, Captain Slater knew about it. Initially he was against it because he considered you as his son. Yet as soon as I told him about the opportunities for you, he reluctantly agreed to my proposal." Said the Chief Inspector as he lit up a cigar.
"You are very capable person Chad, that's the reason we chose you to complete a task for us."
"Right now I want to know if you are interested or not. Of course you can refuse and we will reinstate you as a sergeant."
"With all do respect sir, but I would like to know what the task is about first." said Chad seriously.
"Of course."
Chief Inspector Anderson nodded with satisfaction. If Chad really agreed so recklessly, then he would be no different from the other hot heads in the gang unit. He slowly took out a file before throwing it to Chad. Seeing the paper file made Chad frown while holding it, because he is used to using a holographic smart watch.
"Hahaha, you kids nowadays really rely on technology to much. Did you really think we would store our high profiled cases on the internet?"
Hearing what the chief inspector said made Chad frown even more. Opening the file Chad was taken aback, because all the profiles in the file were that of powerful gang bosses. Gang bosses the previous Chad could not touch, because they were to high up the gang hierarchy.
"Five years and we have nothing to show for this costly war. The gangs have our department by the balls and we can do nothing about it."
"But sir, I was under the impression that we are winning the war."
"Sigh, those are all lies, because media is in the pockets of some powerful people. And our current police chief, seems to have no intention of having an all out war with the gangs."
"Hell we even suspect that he is already in the pockets of a few gangs. That's why Deputy Chief Crawford chose you for this mission. He will need some great merits if he wants to take the throne."
"So that's were I come in right." said Chad sipping his juice.
"We need you to join a gang and unify all the gangs in the city."
"When all the gangs are unified the security of OutRun City would be controlled by us." said Chief Inspector Anderson excitedly.
"The more powerful the gangs become, the more crime increases. This of course In turn makes the bureau look bad. But the man with the most embarrassment is Mayor Wilson himself. He is one of the hidden hands supporting us."
"Sir, why doesn't the Mayor just replace the Chief?" ask Chad with bewilderment.
"Let's just say that the chief of police has backers that even the Mayor cannot afford to offend. So the only way we can get him would be by linking him with a few gangs. We would need to get undeniably evidence that he is dirty so that even his backers can't save him."
"But enough about that, what I want to know now is your answer."
"Sir, this task is very dangerous and the odds of failure are very high." Replied Chad shaking his head.
Chad is not the son or nephew of any high ranking gang member. So it would be almost impossible for him to climb ranks fast from an ordinary street soldier. Let's not even mention unifying all the gangs, He won't even be able to take over one gang."
"Don't be too hasty to refuse this offer Chad. I know all to well about your worries, but unifying all the gangs is just the end goal."
"All we need from you is to become a main member of the crimson shadows. Your job would be to collect evidence on the big bosses of the gang."
Hearing this he closed his eyes as he began knocking on the table and thinking. With his current speed of arresting criminals it would take him a long time to properly understand the system.
Going undercover would speed up the process of catching gangsters, therefore also completing the systems requirements. One of his main goals is to completely understand the system and why it chose him.
"Okay then, say I pull it off what will I get out of this?"
"You will get promoted to Chief Inspector if the mission is successful."
"But the biggest benefit will be having the mayor at your corner."
The most important abilities of an undercover detective is to have a good memory and be able to blend in. You would need to memorize your undercover identity, and be smooth with your words. Otherwise veteran gangsters would be able to smell you coming from a mile away.
Although the risk of using a green detective like Chad was dangerous, he was stil the only with the right skills for the job. So with him leading the mission they had a good chance to take down the crimson shadows.
Chad picked up his glass of juice before drinking as he began sifting through the file again. But what the Chief Inspector could not see was he interacting with his system. Looking at the few gangster points Chad knew this was the only way to rank up quickly.
"Okay, I'm in."
"Good! Very good I knew you were somebody we could count on." shouted Chief Inspector Anderson.
"Can Chief now tell me the plan of action to get me in."
"Two months." said Chief inspector Anderson holding up 2 fingers.
"You will have to go spend 2 months behind bars at Finchley Maximum Security Prison. Don't worry about going to trial, we have managed to bypass that step."
"Your first objective will be to get close to Craig Shaw, a high ranking member of the crimson shadows. He will be released in about two months, so you will need to work quickly to gain his trust. The mayor has given you permission to kill, but that will sowly be your decision."
The previous Chad had lots of experience with infiltrating small gangs, so Chad saw no problem with this mission.
"Craig Shawn's information is in the file quickly look through it."
Chad quickly began flipping through the file before finally finding his information.

*Craig Shaw
{NICK NAME}
*Wicked
{AGE}
*30
{GENES}

{INTRODUCTION}

Chad was silent for a while before beginning to nodding his head smiling.
"Damn, almost forgot to give you this. You need to study this map carefully to avoid trouble in the future." said the Chief Inspector before handing it over.
Opening the map Chad finally understood what the Chief Inspector meant. The whole map had little colorful blocks of various sizes drawn on it. On the side of the map was each gang name along with its color and badge. From the crimson shadows to the black hand. The map even showed the territories of all the pimps in the city. Chad was greatful because this would make his job so much easier in the future.
"Thank you Chief."
"Okay, now that we're done here I need to quickly go home. My wife will kill me if I miss dinner again." said Chief Inspector Anderson jokingly.
Chad was quickly led back to his cell by the guards.
...
The next day Chad began preparing himself for prison. After getting himself ready guards came and lead him away. Yet as they were walking in the hallway, Chad began hearing the sound of running behind him.
"Wait! guards wait a minute." screamed a girl behind them.
As soon as Chad turned around and saw who it was, he could not help but smile. Because the girl was Nicole Adam's, one of the previous Chad's flings. She is only 22 years old, but is built like a mid thirties milf. Dressed in a short mini skirt that barely covered her ass. And white tight T-shirt that could barely contain her huge melons. With beautiful platinum blond hair and red lips she was a dime.
Never in Chads life would he have thought that he could get a girl like this. The previous Chad was a casanova and had many victims. Nicole is one of those victims that fell in love with him after a one night stand.
"Chad I am so sorry I tried everything to get you out. Even my own father is against me this time." Said Nicole tearfully.
"It's okay princess, I'll only begone for 2 months, I—"
"No! It's not ok at all." screamed Nicole as she hugged Chad and began crying in his arms.
Feeling the warmth of such a beautiful girl, Chad was considering whether his future goals are right, because the current him already has a great life.
"Okay, enough lover boy. It's time to get moving." said one of the guards as he grabbed Chad.
"Wait, I just want to tell her something."
"Okay, hurry up." said the second guard with a hint of anger.
"Listen Nicole there are dangerous people after me. So I dont want you to visit me in jail."
"But my dad he can—"
"Listen! I am serious when I'm telling you not to visit me. You will be the first person I visit when I get out, Okay. Said Chad as he held her chin.
"Okay Chad." Said Nicole lowering her head.
The guards took Chad to an isolated room. When he stepped inside he saw Chief Inspector sitting and smoking a cigar.
"Oh Chad welcome." said the Chief inspector as he waved him in.
"I hope you're ready because today will be very chaotic for you."
"Of course sir, but first I want you to get my files somewhere confidential. No one should be able to see my case files in the next few years while I'm gone." said Chad as he firmly looked at the Inspector.
He had seen way to many gangster movies on Earth, where agents get caught out due to police negligence.
The benefit of locking his police identity and case files, is that not even the Chief inspector would be able to manipulate him should he turn dirty.
"You don't have to worry Chad, Deputy Chief Crawford and Mayor Wilson will personally hold your files."
"Sir with all due disrespect, I would like to talk to Deputy Chief Crawford directly."
Hearing what Chad said Chief Inspector Anderson did not get angry at all. On the contrary he was happy because he found a level headed person. Chief Inspector Anderson took out his phone before dialing a number.
"Hello, Deputy Chief Crawford it's Chief Anderson calling sir. I'm calling about the mission..."
"Yes sir everything is in order, he's right here sir." said Chief Inspector Anderson before handing the phone to Chad.
"Hello! This is Chad speaking Deputy Chief."
"So you are golden boy Chad. I heard that Chief Inspector Anderson is very optimistic about you kid."
"I have already fulfilled your request son. I hope you can successfully complete this mission."
"No problem sir, I will try my best to complete the mission!"
After hanging up the phone he returned it back to Chief Inspector Anderson with a look of gratitude.
"Anyway where was I? Oh yes, Warden Sullivan is one of our guys. So you won't be troubled while serving."
"So it's okay to cause trouble in jail. You can even go as far as to kill some people like we said before. Just don't get caught because that would be troublesome." Ordered Chief Inspector Anderson as he cut his cigar.
"Understood, sir." Chad nodded and replied.
He really did not mind killing anybody. As long as he can get the mission done then anybody can get it.
"Also Chad you stil behave like a police officer. You will need to begin acting like a gangster to fit in."
Hearing that Chad immediately closed his eyes as he began activating his disguise ability. His whole body immediately began giving of a dangerous aura. His eyes looked sharp like somebody ready to kill at anytime.
Chief Inspector Anderson nodded as he senced the change in Chad's temperament. He took out his phone before making a call.
A few minutes later police sirens could be heard entering the bureau headquarters. Stepping out a howering armored truck were heavely armed powersuit wearing guards. They wasted no time and went straight to Chad's cell. Seeing the men approaching his cell he knew who they were. They were the flying squad responsible for transporting convicts to jail.
"Chad Eldridge, we are here to transport you to Finchley maximum security prison. Please stick out your hands." Said one guard calmly.
Meanwhile in the gang unit Steve was currently celebrating with champagne. Despite having a broken nose and two black eyes he stil celebrated. The man he hated the most, the man who slept with his wife was finally gone.
