Mr. Blue Eyes was very enthusiastic, but he couldn't hide the superior arrogance in his heart.
Li Ang ignored his request to shake hands and went straight to the sofa to sit down.
Mr. Blue Eyes, who was treated so rudely, not only did not show any dissatisfaction, but the smile on his face became even brighter.
"As expected of Mr. Li Ang, he is extraordinary and unique."
The clumsy and straightforward flattery made Li Ang laugh. He put a finger to his temple and circled it: "You are overthinking, I am just afraid of being brainwashed. When dealing with you Ye family, there should be less unnecessary physical contact. Better."
"Sorry, I may be a bit blunt, I hope Mr. Lan doesn't mind."
In fact, even if Ott Cunningham, the strongest AI outside the black wall, comes, he can't penetrate Li Ang's consciousness. What he said is purely to warn the other party: I know far more than you think. Put away those shady things. small means.
Mr. Blue Eyes really understood the implication, and the light in his eyes flickered a few times.
Then, he sat back on the sofa opposite Li Ang: "In that case, I won't give in. Night City officially intends to rebuild the NCPD. Our company is willing to recommend you to become the new director, and your subordinates. I can send them in Working in government departments or Ye’s company.”
“If you want, be a city councilor in five years and mayor in ten!”
"This is our guarantee to you, and I hope you will think about it."
The conditions given by Mr. Blue Eyes were sincere and worthy of the strength shown by Li Ang.
But what he didn't know was how someone who didn't even bother to be the King of Elden could see himself in the position of a broken director.
"It's not new to kill people and set fires to be recruited." Li Ang said slowly: "Unfortunately, Dog Town is not Liangshan."
"Let me guess, you should have done a lot of research before coming here, right? No hacking methods will work on me, but you really want to control my body, just like you have always coveted Song Zhaomei."
"If I agree to your conditions, these people around me will gradually be brainwashed and become your accomplices. They will unknowingly make me take some kind of drug, thus destroying my consciousness and tampering with my memory."
"Oh, by the way, you are also very aware of my relationship with Arasaka, and V has a Relic chip in his hand. You can kill two birds with one stone, let V contact Ultra, and then use my relationship to send him to the Kamikyo ."
"When Ultra annexes and absorbs the consciousness and technology of all the countless top hackers collected by Arasaka Company, she can dismantle network surveillance, completely destroy the black wall, and release all circulating AI."
"In the end, you will combine the most powerful body with the most powerful AI to create an unprecedented terrifying creature. It will become the ultimate weapon for your gang of wandering AIs to rule the world."
"Also, if I told you that my life span is so long that even AI cannot accurately calculate it, would you be even more excited?"
Li Ang's deduction almost completely guessed Mr. Blue Eyes's plan.
Even if AI is synonymous with absolute rationality, everyone is a little panicked at this time.
The two Ye's security guards behind Blue Eyes felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy and subconsciously put their hands into their arms. But after groping for a while, I remembered that their weapons had been taken away when they entered Sapphire Green.
"What? You want to kill people and silence them?"
Li Ang smiled jokingly, raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
The next second, several ghost dogs with guns and ammunition opened the door and came in.
"Drag it down, chop it into pieces and feed it to the dogs."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Li Ang!" Blue Eyes stood up excitedly: "I don't know where you got this information, but I can guarantee that all the above are slanders and slanders against us and Yeshi Company. Our company From beginning to end, we are committed to making Night City a "
Seeing that he was still quibbling, Li Ang was too lazy to talk nonsense.
With a gentle wave of his hand, a large area of red blood flame suddenly appeared and sprinkled on the two Ye clan security guards.
The sound of stabbing and stabbing sounded instantly, like hot oil boiling. The two fell to the ground screaming, their bodies melted by the extreme high temperature, and finally turned into a pool of charred unknown objects.
"It turns out that AI can also hurt, which is interesting." Li Ang said leisurely.
As the blood flames extinguished, the temperature in the reception room gradually recovered.
Mr. Blue Eyes felt like he was in a scorching tropics, and the sweat on his forehead couldn't stop flowing down.
Watching image data and being there are two completely different feelings. When all the detector's analysis results show that it is unknown, even the AI can't help but feel a strong sense of fear.
Amidst the violent fluctuations in emotions, a long-circulated sentence echoed in the blue eyes.
Most of the rumors in Night City are true, especially the horrifying ones.
There really might be a god sitting in front of him.
"Mr. Li Ang, we" Blue Eyes' computing power was stretched to the extreme, trying to find the most suitable solution.
But Li Ang interrupted him again.
"You must be wondering why I know so much about your plans."
"Actually, you are just a character in the game. Your world was actually designed from the beginning. Your efforts, the meaning of your existence, your efforts and sacrifices have no value from the beginning."
"Do you need me to tell you this like a villain? NPC?"
After that, Li Ang laughed and left the reception room.
Mr. Blue Eyes felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He sat there in shock for a long time, unable to recover.
His central processing unit was working hard, trying to analyze whether Li Ang's words were true or false.
After just a few seconds, several results were listed.
[Leon is lying: probability 48%]
[Leon is a high-dimensional creature: probability 32%]
[What Li Ang said is true: the probability is 7%]
[Others: 13% possibility]
While the blue eyes were fighting with the air, in the corridor outside the room, a ghost dog hesitated for a long time and finally plucked up the courage to ask:
"Sir, what you just said about game characters and NPCs is true?"
After hearing this, the other Netherworld Dogs all showed curious eyes.
Li Ang smiled: "Of course. It's fake. It's just about killing people and killing people. If you use your brain a little bit, how can the game be so real? Even the most powerful Super Dreamer can't do this."
The Netherworld Dogs immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately it was false, otherwise they wouldn't know how to face the rest of their lives.
Then, Ghost Dog asked Blue Eyes what to do.
"Kick him out." Li Ang ordered.
Mr. Blue Eyes, who is staying in the living room now, is just a broiler controlled by AI. He can withdraw from consciousness at any time when in danger, burn the data, and leave an empty shell, so it is useless to catch him.
It's better to put Ye's family back, maybe something more interesting will happen.
The ghost dogs went to carry out the order, and Li Ang came to the room where Shintaro Takayama was.
"I've kept you waiting for a long time, Mr. Gao Shan."
"No, Master Li Ang is very busy with things. It is already a great honor for me to take the time to come here. I don't dare to ask for too much."
Shintaro Takayama kept his posture extremely low, and his respectful look was not like a company director at all, but like a dog wagging its tail.
He was able to control the most important security department of Arasaka Company for decades, from the Saburo era to the Yorinobu era, by relying on his ability to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and his ability to bend and stretch.
In front of Saburo Arasaka, he was a more loyal lackey than Takemura.
In front of Hanako Arasaka, he is a confidant who can preach and resolve doubts.
In front of Arasaka Yorinobu, he suddenly became the company's last conscience, thinking and working hard for the future of Arasaka Company.
Now standing in front of Li Ang, Takayama Shintaro puts himself in the position of a retainer again, and Li Ang is the shogun to whom he is loyal.
"You're so polite, Mr. Gao Shan, you and I don't have to be so outspoken." Li Ang stretched out his hand to help the old devil who bowed himself at 90 degrees: "I didn't even have time to say thank you for the meeting gift you gave me."
"It's just a small thing, not worth mentioning." Shintaro sat down happily.
In his mind, since Li Ang took the initiative to bring up the meeting gift, it meant that he was thinking about this friendship, and it would be much easier to talk about other things later.
"I wonder if you are satisfied with the gift? Does the car drive smoothly?"
“Satisfying and convenient!”
Li Ang meant what he said. The gangster's car was really easy to drive.
"That's good, that's good." Shintaro Takayama smiled and suddenly showed a hesitant expression.
Upon seeing this, Li Ang was very cooperative and asked him if he had encountered any difficulties.
"You don't know, sir. A few days ago, an old friend from Night City also gave me a car. However, I work in Tokyo all year round and have no use for it. Plus, I'm old and I really don't care about these things. Not interested."
Shintaro Takayama said as he took out an exquisite gift box from the briefcase beside him.
The surface of the box is printed with the logo of Rayfield, a famous automobile manufacturer in the cyber world.
"Since ancient times, BMW has always been a hero. I believe that transferring it to you is the best destination for it."
Such a fresh and refined way of giving gifts made Li Ang almost collapse.
"This isn't appropriate."
"There is nothing more suitable in the world." Shintaro Takayama pushed the gift box with the car keys in front of Li Ang, and then withdrew his hands.
That means, whether you want it or not, it's not mine anymore.
Li Ang glanced at the gift box: "Gao Shanjun, why don't we talk about business."
"Your will." Shintaro Takayama paused and said, "I have a small request. I wonder if I can invite Miss Hanako to join the meeting."
For the sake of the car, Li Ang agreed to this request, which was not too much.
After a while, a slightly haggard Hanako Arasaka was brought in.
When she saw her close friend, she was happy and surprised: "Teacher, what are you doing?"
Shintaro Takayama is not only her friend, but also her guide. He has taught her many experiences in life and company management, so he is respectfully called her teacher.
"Miss Hanako." After greeting Shintaro, he winked at her.
Arasaka Hanako reacted immediately and bowed slightly to Li Ang: "Ang-kun."
After saying that, she did not go to the teacher, but sat next to Li Ang.
Shintaro Takayama nodded calmly, and then said: "Sir, I came here today to talk to you."
"Wait a moment." Li Ang turned to Hua Zi and said, "Go and turn on the projector on that one, and then call your brother."
Shintaro Takayama frowned, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.
Arasaka Hanako obediently started the projection and connected the mobile phone given to her by Li Ang to the screen.
After a few beeps, Arasaka Yorinobu answered the phone.
At the same time, the situation in the reception room also appeared on the holographic TV in the president's office.
Hanako Arasaka was a little excited when she saw her relatives again. However, due to Li Ang's intimidation, she did not dare to say hello to her brother.
Arasaka Yorinobu also felt sorry for his sister, so he gave her some reassurance.
"Hua Zi, you can go home soon, trust me."
Arasaka Hanako held back tears and nodded, saying that she would believe her brother.
After the deep love between brother and sister, the CEO set his sights on Li Ang.
Li Ang spoke at the right time: "Long time no see. I have finished what I promised you."
Shintaro Takayama heard this and subconsciously thought about the meaning of this sentence.
As a result, when he was distracted for a moment, his neck was violently twisted by a black and red tentacle that appeared inexplicably.
Until my death, I didn't know what happened.
Hanako Arasaka, who witnessed everything with his own eyes, was frightened and made a sharp explosion.
"Shut up!" Li Ang's extremely cold voice came.
Hanako Arasaka's body shook uncontrollably, and she hurriedly covered her mouth. She huddled on the sofa with tears in her eyes, looking very pitiful.
Arasaka Yorinobu on the projection screen looked unhappy: "You scared her."
Li Ang turned a deaf ear and said to himself: "Now the first and second figures of the Pheasant Faction have problems. Michiko Arasaka's Hato Faction is not in power. No one in Arasaka can threaten your position."
"Destroy the shrine as soon as possible, and then use this as an excuse to start a war with military technology."
"One more thing. I want the Ye Group to disappear from this world. Please cooperate with me."
Arasaka Yorinobu's face became increasingly gloomy: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
After hearing about the mikoshi, Hanako Arasaka showed a look of uncertainty.
Although the action is very subtle, it still cannot be hidden from Li Ang: "Our Miss Hanako seems to know that there is a backup personality of Saburo Arasaka in the mikoshi. She probably didn't tell you about this, right?"
Arasaka Yorinobu immediately turned his attention to his sister.
Hanako Arasaka shook his head slightly, with a sad expression.
Yori Xuan closed his eyes and let out a long breath.
It was obvious that he had softened his heart. If Hanako had not begged for mercy, he might have died at the hands of Saburo Arasaka.
"This is a family matter of our Arasaka family, you don't need to take care of it!"
Li Ang spread his hands: "Okay, I don't care. But I want to remind you, don't forget what all these years of persistence and hard work are for."
Arasaka Yorinobu took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows: "I have never forgotten it."
"Bring my sister back, I want to send her back to Tokyo."
"Okay." Li Ang agreed without hesitation.
Then, Arasaka Yorinobu hung up the phone.
Hanako Arasaka, who was finally able to go home, didn't look happy at all, because she knew very well that now that she was back in Arasaka, she would be a lamb to be slaughtered.
Oda, his most trusted subordinate, and Shintaro Takayama, his best helper, were all dead.
And since she has been away from the company for so long, the pheasant faction loyal to her has probably been liquidated long ago.
Even if he wants to seize power, he can't compete with his brother.
Hanako Arasaka seems to have foreseen his future, just like the previous decades of his life, he will be locked up in a Tokyo courtyard and die alone.
"Angjun." She tried to ask Li Ang for help.
Although the terrifying man in front of her was the main culprit for her falling into this situation, he was the only one she could hold on to as a life-saving straw.
However, Li Ang ignored Hua Zi and coldly invited her to board the Arasaka company's float vehicle.
Together with the two Arasaka representatives from the party, they were sent back to Arasaka Tower.
About three hours later, WNS News headlined the front page.
The underground data center 'Mikoshi' in the Arasaka Building was attacked by unknown persons and exploded violently. The third lady of the Arasaka family: Hanako Arasaka and several other company managers were unfortunately killed.
Yorinobu Arasaka, the president of Arasaka Company, was overly sad and fainted several times.
That night, the Arasaka Beluga launched hundreds of missiles, one-third of which accidentally landed on the headquarters of Ye's company.
At the same time, Yorinobu Arasaka, who had already left for a Tokyo sanatorium to recuperate, held a press conference on the plane.
In the name of revenge for his sister, he declared war on military technology.
The fifth corporate war has thus begun.
The computer automatically updated the system to the point where it couldn’t be turned on. It really pissed me off.
