Chapter 282
"Nothing can be found... it's not surprising."
Listening to Sasha's words, Lin Qiao thought for a while, but didn't say anything.
After all, it's normal for Military Technology to ask someone to cause trouble for Arasaka.
And without any clues, it's also unrealistic to catch an enemy with the ability to control the mind and erase information.
The only problem at present is whether these two things are related...this can only be verified slowly.
But the good news is that the other party may not have the ability to read minds-otherwise, it would have come to the door long ago.
"Tell the Counterintelligence Department to ignore these things for now, and focus on the next action, especially Tanaka."
Which middleman took the commission and which mercenary was asked to execute it, these are secondary issues.
-To put it bluntly, the middleman is just a dog who licks the company, and the mercenary is just a tool that can be used for money.
There is no point in looking for these.
Not to mention, their purpose is almost clear to me.
"But are you sure that the mysterious guy is from Military Technology?" Sasha responded perfunctorily twice, and then asked.
"No, on the contrary, I'm not sure at all, and I even suspect that Military Technology may not know that guy."
"... Then why do you want to provoke Military Technology?"
Lin Qiao spread his hands: "That's why I'm not sure."
Compared to being tortured by the possibility of wavering, it's better to make the worst plan from the beginning.
This is also the reason why he let his clone disguise as Amazon to attack the Military Technology convoy, but in the end he still left key evidence.
... It's a pity that when he was in Tokyo Ghoul, he blew it up too cleanly with one kick, and failed to save the sample, otherwise he wouldn't have to do it himself.
But this is also a digression.
In short, in addition to the necessary information misleading, there is also a wave of fishing.
If the other party gets the news about Amazon, then the next step must be to find a way to investigate.
Especially when it is understood that this thing is related to Arasaka.
The simplest and most effective way is to find a senior Arasaka to interrogate... and this is the effect Lin Qiao wants.
——The military technology people have already set their sights on Tanaka, so let him maximize his value.
As for his own opinion... if you have the guts, go and sue Saburo Arasaka (laughs).
But in addition to this, what he cares about more is that when Manin and his friends came to the clinic last time, they told him that someone was looking for Lucy by name.
This is a bit worrying.
All signs have shown that the person who asked them for Lucy's information should be the guy with psychic abilities he is looking for.
But... why?
How did the other party get the news about Lucy?
Not to mention the information blockade in recent years, at least Lin Qiao is very sure that this white-haired hacker girl in her family is definitely a lonely type in terms of personality.
It is more reliable to expect her to taste a cup of Nebula Coffee than to want her to take the initiative to make friends.
But that's why it's strange.
The other party came to ask Man Yin and others for clues about Lucy...
In addition to proving that the other party knew Lucy herself, it also meant that the other party was very sure that Man Yin and others knew the clues about Lucy.
"What's wrong?"
Lucy was a little confused when she found that Lin Qiao's eyes had been staring at her thoughtfully.
"It's okay, I'm just thinking about something."
Lin Qiao shook his head.
To be honest, apart from the ability of divination, he had a bold guess about this.
For example, he didn't watch the cyberpunk animation at the time...
Although it's not important to think about these now, but in this way, at least some things can be explained.
Just in case, don't go back to the clinic recently.
"But let's stop here today, it's getting late."
"Eh? Don't continue?"
"Forget it, if you drink more, you will probably have a headache tomorrow morning."
Glancing at the empty bottles on the table, although some of them were drunk with Sasha to take care of her mood, but in terms of quantity...should we say that they are worthy of being a fighting nation?
"Go back to Arasaka drunk, be careful that Abernathy will deduct your salary."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you say that I am drinking with you, Abernathy will understand... but it's true."
As if thinking of something, Sasha put down the volt in his hand.
The corners of his mouth turned up, and his eyes were half-closed, which made people think of a kitten who wanted to do something bad.
"I really can't drink anymore. If I drink more, I feel that I can't even go back... oops."
As soon as he stood up, he leaned towards Lin Qiao with a swaying body under the influence of alcohol.
"It seems that I did drink a little accidentally... um..."
"..."
Feeling the feeling of being held by two round things, and looking at Lucy next to him with an obviously unfriendly look, Lin Qiao felt a headache for no reason.
Chapter 351 The world where only Tanaka was injured is completed
As one of the senior executives of Arasaka stationed in Night City, and one of the few people who knew the existence of K and had not had most of the related memories erased, Tanaka felt that the atmosphere in the company was a little wrong recently.
He couldn't tell the details.
However, ever since Saburo-sama used the Chimera Box to create a certain annoying artificial life form, this weird feeling has always existed.
BloodRiot
The unscrupulous way of doing things and the erratic and cruel character made the high-level officials of the Night City Arasaka branch dare not speak out against him.
Oh, by the way, the former rival and classmate Fujioka Kaoru dared to do it.
Then he disappeared the next day.
And that red bastard was only symbolically reprimanded by Saburo-sama... It can't even be called a reprimand.
To put it simply, it's: "Although he did it wrong, you are also wrong, so don't do it next time."
Other than that, there was not even a symbolic punishment.
It can only be said that he favored it and was fearless.
At the same time, under the influence of this guy and the knight system he created, the "Cyborg", which was originally promoted by him and regarded as a next-generation war weapon by Arasaka, has now become extremely embarrassing.
After all, Cyborg really can't beat the opponent.
In the actual combat test, not only was Lucy's transformed knight hacked into it at the first sight, but even if the opponent changed to other frontal combat combinations, the Cybertron had no advantage at all.
This thing called Manping is really unreasonable!
If it weren't for the premise of using the Knight System, it needs to be transformed by the Chimaera Box, and after creating BloodRiot, the Chimaera Box fell into a dormant state with insufficient energy, resulting in the inability to continue to create qualified transformers. It is estimated that the Cybertron would have been removed from the list by now...
But the problem is that the Cybertron also has similar shortcomings!
Even bigger than the opponent!
The current Cybertron is completely an iron coffin that treats the driver as a disposable consumable, and it won't be used for long.
The only one that can be used is Adam Heavy Hammer... What's the use of this!
Arasaka wants a mass-produced machine that can win the Fifth Corporate War, not a fucking Gundam!
Compared with the already formed Knight System, it is really not a little bit worse.
Finally, not to mention that the Cybernetic is still only a semi-finished product.
All functions have not been tested yet, and there are not many testers who can withstand other outputs.
"Alas..."
Sitting in the car, Tanaka sighed helplessly. In short, there are many things to worry about.
Moreover, his son was beaten into the hospital during this period... The wailing appearance of his son lying on the hospital bed made Tanaka, who had a son in his old age, feel distressed.
The attacker was just a poor boy from Saint Domingo, who had no background. It can be said that he could kill the opponent at any time if he wanted to.
But by chance, the opponent's perfect use of military-grade Sian Westin gave him other ideas.
It just so happened that Cybernetic was in need of experimental candidates, so let the poor boy make his own contribution to the company, and let him atone for his behavior...
But this was not very smooth.
It was a bit unexpected that the poor boy did not return to Arasaka Academy.
The driver in the front row glanced through the rearview mirror and did not say much.
After the luxury car came out of the hospital, it drove all the way to Westbrook's Japanese Street - adults always have their own way to vent.
However, just as he walked to the club he often went to and placed an order with a female masseuse inside, a teenager with a punk hairstyle walked in...
And that familiar appearance surprised Tanaka.
"David Martinez!?"
As the murderer who injured his son and the experimenter of the prepared cyborg, it was unexpected that he would appear in front of him in this environment.
And David, who wanted to pretend to be a cleaner and try to get in, was also stunned when he found that the other party called out his name.
- Something is wrong!
Although his mind was blank for a second, Tanaka naturally knew that it must be something bad that had come to him to get this position.
But before he could react, a burst of electricity burst out from the cyborg in his body, and his consciousness suddenly fell into a blank.
'System reset... network hacker... Damn! ’
The slightly fat body fell straight down.
But just before his body collided with the ground, David turned on Sian Westin and injected a tube of anesthetic into his body, which would ensure that he would sleep longer.
He looked back at the door that was still wide open, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he found that no one noticed the situation here.
[Hey, kid, stop dawdling! ]
Manin's voice suddenly came from the communication channel, which made him shudder.
[Okay, I know, I'll come right away. ]
As David's voice fell, the lights in the club suddenly went out, and at the same time, some people complained and were dissatisfied downstairs, and even there were sounds of fighting and conflict.
David knew that it was his teammates who were buying time for him.
While everyone was attracted by the chaos below.
Through the stimulation of Sian Westin's muscles, he carried Tanaka, who was a whole circle stronger than himself, and quickly walked downstairs from the employee passage.
And the modified armored vehicle parked behind the club had already been parked there.
There was a security guard who had fallen down in the ground nearby.
Dolio in the carriage called out and put the unconscious Tanaka inside.
And to be on the safe side, he was given another injection of anesthetic.
"Okay, hurry up and get in the car, we're leaving."
"Eh? Aren't you waiting for Manin and Pira?"
"They're still buying time inside, and will come to meet us later."
They said they were buying time, but in fact, the two of them just found an excuse to make trouble inside and attract people's attention.
"Ladies, sit tight, the road ahead is not easy."
