As Xu Shi expected, knowing that it might be a trap set for him, after weighing it, Lin Wenhua still took over the task of developing chips.
The old man's current predicament is not only reflected within the "Snake Ring". What's terrible is that his external connections and resources are no longer useful.
For example, take Yue Chizheng, the governor of the city hall. This little old man originally had a good relationship with him. With him playing drums outside, he could do many things with half the effort.
But something has been wrong recently. Not to mention that he has something to do with him, Yue Chizheng avoids him even if he simply goes out to have dinner or drinks. He avoids him like a god of plague.
Lin Wenhua knew that this must be because this little brat Xu Shi was in the limelight recently and single-handedly promoted the acceptance of the "forgotten people", which was a huge benefit to the whole city. At this time, because If he offends him, Yue Chizheng may not do such a thing even if he has dementia.
But what he didn't know was that the more important reason was that Xu Shi had come to see him privately and showed him something by the way.
Of course, they are the ones obtained from "Disge", the shady ones, the special hobbies of the big bosses in Night City.
Among them was Yue Zhizheng.
"Governor Yue, you don't want others to know that you like a young girl and want to pull out her teeth, right?"
Director Xu said so at the time.
Of course he wasn't just looking at those data bricks for entertainment. He had so many ways to entertain himself, why would he need this? The main purpose is to screen and select valuable political and business figures. This is considered to have their leverage.
One thing to say is that Zhang Shijun definitely didn’t keep these things because he wanted to keep a handle. The leader of the sixth district may seem to have a good reputation, but in fact his status is not that high... It’s just a reference to make it easier to identify the financial owner’s father. They lick more comfortably.
If you dare to threaten them with this, you are digging your own grave.
This is why after he got these things, he also deliberately guided Lin Yue not to think about this aspect. If the little assassin sister is really stupid like this, no one can save her. To her, the value of these data bricks is only and Ding Jun transaction.
But it would be different if it were him, and he wouldn't have so many scruples about using it - after all, the biggest battlefield for pornographic news is the media, and who controls the media? Qi Maoyang! In other words, it is an "imaginary number".
The relationship between the two families is so good now. Can Qi Maoyang help with this kind of thing? As soon as he helps, it means that the two major consortiums are joining forces to get you, and everyone has to weigh the weight of it.
But having said that, the process is not important, the result is important.
The fact is that Lin Wenhua has indeed been defeated now. All his external connections have been cut off. His few cybernetic secret guards pose no threat to Xu Shi. The 1557 who escaped last time has not been found yet...
The only thing that can be used seems to be seniority, but just talking about seniority will make you stupid.
It has always been like this, and there is only the possibility of being slowly worn to death by Xu Shi.
Only by taking this matter can we have a chance of survival. The hope is to use this matter to restock our hands with some useful information. If we can get it, our reputation will be restored. And no matter what, as the person in charge, the second-phase chip can surpass him. The hand itself is an opportunity for him to regain a chip.
"Then I wish the project success, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Lin."
Xu Shi nodded meaningfully, and after finishing the business talk, it was time for the final wrangling.
There was harmony in the conference room.
Outside the door, after hearing the conversation inside, Shen Qin's expression changed imperceptibly.
In fact, the soundproofing of the conference room is not that bad, but who makes her an A-level "upgraded"? Her five senses are much sharper than ordinary people.
So she couldn't help but wonder, who is this Lin Wenhua?
She endured the humiliation and joined the "Snake Ring", certainly not to stand guard here like a housekeeper.
From the perspective of outsiders, this means that the "forgotten" have to live under the shelter of others in order to protect themselves. It is natural for people to feel resentment, but it is quite unwise to think of anything else because of this resentment.
If she is really just "Nan Qian", then she really shouldn't think about all these things.
But she is Shen Qin, and this should not be her end no matter what. She must find a way to find an opportunity, and use all possible means to get rid of this enemy Xu Shi - not only for her brother, but also for other "beings". "The Forgotten"...well, it's true that my brother's matters carry more weight, but that's the truth.
Xu Xu’s drawing is just Xu, but it’s not that he’s not drawing.
And the meeting inside obviously made her smell something. It sounds like there is some disagreement between the two people? This seemed like an opportunity to try...
But it's a pity that she doesn't know much about the internal affairs of this "snake ring". Some things are not clear yet, so she can't act rashly.
"Team Leader Xia..."
She subconsciously called Xia Wuyou.
"..."
Xia Wuyou didn't respond, but put his finger to his lips and gave her a stern gesture of silence.
The responsibilities of the Field Service Department are as follows. They do some external armed escort security work, but they also have internal responsibilities. For example, standing guard for people is one of them.
And the most important thing is not to listen or not to think about it, let alone say, can Shen Qin hear her but Xia Wuyou can't? But you have crossed the line by discussing this matter, and you can just let it rot in your stomach.
Even if she had a personal relationship with Xu Shi, it would still be the same. One code should be the same, and at work, she had to be focused and tight-lipped.
Shen Qin came back to his senses, smiled apologetically, stretched out his hand to fan his mouth, and then said no more.
She also realized that she had made a mistake. The so-called responsibilities and rules were on the one hand. The most important thing was that you definitely couldn't ask Xia Wuyou. Even making insinuations... She had an unusual relationship with Xu Shi. Wasn't this just trying to make people suspicious?
Thinking like this, she was a little scared, but at the same time she also wondered, how could she make such an unwise move?
I'm afraid it's really the influence of Xu Shi's ability... He was a little bit carried away with one careless move. His superpower is really hard to guard against.
This also made her realize that her actions may have to be accelerated, and delaying everything would only harm herself.
Shen Qin calmed down silently.
…
The words are divided into two parts.
After finishing the deployment and ending the meeting, Xu Shi finally had some free time.
I can’t say I’m too busy, but it’s okay to go home.
"...Ouch! Xu Shi, you finally know that you are going home?!"
The door opened, and Gu Yi greeted him with surprise and a bit of complaint.
That's right, Xu Shi hasn't been back at all these days, not even Su Lin... She is the only one in the huge house, little black rabbit, and she feels like she is alone in the empty boudoir.
She would have been happy to death if this had changed. People like Bastard Xu were so blind that they would never come back. But it was different now. Gu Yi felt empty without seeing him, and felt like a kitten scratching her heart.
In fact, you can see him by making a video call, but if you can't see or touch him, you can only talk to him for comfort. How can it be better to have a real person in front of you?
Do you understand the gold content of silver, ahem, stigmata? (doge)
"You didn't turn the house into a pig's nest. It's beyond my expectation."
Xu Shi did not refuse her embrace, but he still teased her.
"Don't you know how to say nice things?"
When Miss Black Rabbit heard this, she was so angry that she hit him hard on the chest with her head.
"Then I'm really sorry."
Xu Shi was stunned, and there was no trace of apology in his tone.
"...Forget it, you play games with me and I will forgive you."
Gu Yi was keenly aware that she would never get any favors in this regard, so she changed the subject wisely.
"OK."
Xu Shi nodded, as he had promised her before, he would keep his word.
I am most trustworthy!
To say that what Gu Yi was thinking about playing for a long time was naturally the most popular "God's Arrival" in the City of Night Sin.
This is an open world adventure game developed by an unknown company, where the chosen person will...
Xu Shi was an old player before. Although he had never been exposed to this game, he got started quickly.
As he played with it, he still had a familiar feeling, like the one that was extremely popular in his previous life...
Well, that's right, it's "Give Her Love".
He even remembered the days when he would print out the cheat codes and memorize them. Good guy, he knew them better than the English text.
I have to say that the game itself is quite good. Not only does it have a regular version, players can also experience the joy of the game immersively through a special game helmet.
Including sensory feedback... This is a bit like consciousness uploading.
The fact is that this technology is not as developed as imagined. At least from Xu Shi's perspective, this is not really a consciousness upload. You can live in it for the rest of your life by inserting a tube like in The Matrix, eating, drinking, and urinating without having to think about anything. of.
But it is undeniable that in this way, it provides a certain degree of concealment for the game. Many gray and even illegal transactions can be easily carried out here. Think about it, Shen He often uses such channels in the original work. To pass on information to others in the organization?
It does have its merits.
But it may be because he is getting older. Even so, the pleasure that games can bring to him is really not as good as before. Although he admits that this game is attractive, he does not feel as excited as Gu Yi.
Of course, the difference in identity is also a very important factor.
The workers in Night Sin City love this game mostly because they can do many things in it that they can't usually do - go on a killing spree if they don't agree with each other, have fun with beautiful women in cars, and earn game coins. Hundreds of millions... But to him, these things seem to be achievable in reality?
If you blindly pursue virtuality, you will naturally lose interest.
On the contrary, it was Gu Yi herself in her arms that aroused her interest even more.
Yes.
The posture of the two playing games is very ambiguous.
Xu Shi was sitting on the lazy sofa, half-lying lazily, while Gu Yi sat between his legs, half-lying in his arms.
The height difference between the two is there, but it's just right so that it doesn't block the line of sight.
And today’s Miss Black Rabbit is also dressed very cutely.
Wearing a light blue silk nightdress, thin white knee-high socks on her feet, wearing cat-ear-shaped headphones, her hair was just loose, and she felt like a homely girl.
This is completely different from the bad street style before... Speaking of which, she has indeed changed a lot. It seems that after being reminded intentionally or unintentionally, she also paid special attention to her dress.
Maybe it would be better if she didn't spit out fragrance... But Xu Shi had to admit that it seemed that only Gu Yi was like this, not caring about her own words and deeds, and popping out some weird words from time to time.
He also likes that the other party retains such a personality, which can be regarded as one of her labels.
Xu Shi simply lost the handle and became restless.
"...Hey, didn't you say you were playing games?"
No matter how focused Ms. Black Rabbit was, she couldn't ignore him moving his hands up and down her body. She didn't look back, but there was already a hint of complaint in her tone.
"The game is not as fun as yours."
Xu Shi was shameless and said, "You are playing your own game, do you care what I do?"
"By the way, you look good dressed like this today."
"How can I continue to play with you like this?"
Gu Yi pouted, unable to hold the handle steadily, and said weakly, "There's nothing to dress up... just normal home clothes."
"Yeah?"
Xu Shi thought about teasing her and pulled the black neckband around her neck, "Is this also home clothes?"
"..."
Miss Black Rabbit had nothing to say and simply leaned back, completely falling into his arms.
Looking down, he was already embarrassed.
The fact is that this can't exactly be considered loungewear, at least not with this neckband.
She couldn't explain why she bought such a meaningless decoration. Maybe it was because she had worn a collar for a while before. Although it was untied now, there was nothing around her neck, so she felt a little uncomfortable.
That's why she placed an order for such a thing. In fact, there was also a version that came with a small bell... But that one was too shameful, and Gu Yi wouldn't choose it.
Why are you so mean? She couldn't help but curse herself, but her body was very honest, and it felt much more comfortable when she wore it.
And the reason why she changed her dressing style was actually because she had the idea that "women should look good to please themselves". I didn't think there was anything wrong with that before. The sloppy street style was cool...but think about it carefully. , which man would really like a slovenly girl? At least she didn't think so.
When things got to this point, she could tell what Xu Shi was thinking. This guy definitely didn't come here with the intention of playing games. Just like what he said, he was just playing with himself.
That……
Miss Black Rabbit blinked, turned over and knelt in front of him, straightened the earphones and moved closer, stretched out her hands and curled them up slightly, making a cute sound.
"Meow?"
To say that she didn't have this idea would be to deceive herself.
It would be better if she didn't do this kind of thing. After doing it, she would never forget it after eating the marrow and knowing the taste. Not to mention that it would be uncomfortable for her to be left at home by him for so many days...
The headphones were quickly thrown aside, and the venue was changed to the bed nearby.
"Well……"
Gu Yi couldn't help but scream.
"Mow like a kitten!"
