CHAPTER XLV

- Four years ago, in the north of Russia, on the Taimel Peninsula, in the small town of Gerson

"It won't be long before you can see the damn big guy."

The one who spoke was a man who was unconsciously reminiscent of a large animal.

North Americans have a light brown face and a gimble body...... Even the unkempt hair that grows wantonly looks like a lion's mane.

The group followed the lead man's line of sight to the black spot in the distance - Black Sand Prison, the world's highest-security prison known for its cruelty and atrocities, located on the Temyr Peninsula, surrounded by cold ice water and cold snow, Russia's version of Shutter Island, the Black Sand Prison for international felons and political prisoners, is their destination.

"How's it going?" didn't seem to be shocked by such a cross-dressing scene, Guan Zimo stared coldly at the projector turned on by the other party.

Guan Shili shrugged his shoulders and pulled out the voice changer from under his neck, "I don't want to put this thing on for a second." "Straighten the sound, the trimmed eyebrows are slightly knotted, "this company does an almost perfect job on the surface, it's clean." ”

Seeing the cold sister who crossed his hands on the other side and looked at him suspiciously, Guan Shili raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression was quite dissatisfied, "Please don't question my sideline ability." Ahem, although this 'pharmaceutical company' looks clean, but-" The words tapped on the keyboard at the same time, and two similar-looking men were reflected on the screen.

"Lu Junming, the chairman of Shengmei Shengke, a well-known gentleman in the business world, is cynical on the surface, only obedient, and is rumored to be the puppet son of the old chairman, but since he can sit as the chairman, his wrist will definitely not be bad. Lu Xiao, deputy director, the son of Lu Lao's second wife, is just low-key, mysterious, frail and sickly, rarely participates in business activities, and seems to be suppressed. As usual, the upper echelons are divided into the chairman faction and the vice chairman faction, but recently because of the merger of foreign capital, other bigwigs have sided with Lu Junming. ”

"Relationship with Night City." Guan Zimo looked at the two men with very different temperaments, and went straight to the point.

"As I said, almost all of the human trafficking webs in Night City are inextricably linked to Katsumi, but unfortunately we have not obtained the most direct evidence." Guan Shili had a little annoyance on his face, "Its security system was cut off by tracking when I was about to get resources, Jones Moore, that dwarf corgi Israeli does have two brushes." ”

"You've got a deflated time, too." Guan Zimo's tail note rises.

"Hmph, I seem to think I'm being put on the table, you seem to be happy? My dear sister. He raised his eyebrows slightly, a little unpleasant.

"No, you continue."

Although the tone is calm, the slightly contemptuous eyes are visible!

"Please, you let a medical side student spy computer try to hack into the Mossad." Guan Shili felt that he needed to cool down now.

"So you should pick up your old job, JHU's chief genius physician." While Guan Zimo spoke, he opened the drawer, took out a document and handed it to her with a smile.

Guan Shili finally understood the reason why no one in the Guan Duo group was willing to be alone with her sister. The adjective "bad character" is not an exaggeration for the other party.

"Bad character? I think you're more than that. ”

"Don't eavesdrop on my mindwaves! Damn," Guan Shili picked up the text on the table with a headache, and after roughly reading the content on the table, he decisively threw it into the trash, "You think I'll agree to this fucking job?" ”

Guan Zimo seemed to expect the other party to react like this, so he didn't get angry, but naturally asked, "Then you still have to meet the blind date arranged by the old man." ”

"Absolutely," Guan Shili twisted the pen in his hand a little irritably, "This time this matter is to help you after you have promised me to solve the old man's problem, don't go back on your word." ”

"But you're not doing it well."

"God, when did you become so verbose," Guan Shili looked at the other party with an unquestioning look, and had to shrug his shoulders, "I just returned to China, you can't let me rest, isn't it OK to leave the rest to your subordinates?" ”

"I'm not at ease." To put it mildly, someone's way back.

“N——O——！！ I don't want to wade into this troubled water," Guan Shili threw the broken steel straight into the poor tempered door, ready to get up and leave.

"If I hadn't helped you cover up, when would you have escaped to, my dear sister who was arranged for 36 blind dates."

The other party's sinister voice came from behind him, and Guan Shili's steps were slightly hesitant.

“No”

"Take full authority to settle your blind date, and there will be no more in the future." The other party made the first quid pro quo. The footsteps of "......" suddenly became so heavy, Guan Shili really wanted to hack her sister to death.

"Add an extra year of vacation to you, during which time you'll only be responsible for the title of CFO and advisor to the company." The voice came again.

There was obvious hesitation, but it didn't stop.

"OK, I'll send someone to bring your 'Xiaobai' back from the closed area. It will not be recalled in any form, wherever you go. The chairman of the Guanduo Group seemed to know his sister's character very well, and once again added a tempting condition.

"What, what, shape, form?" Repeat once indefinitely.

Looking at the other party, he nodded affirmatively, "...... OK," Guan Shili reluctantly folded back, you must know that she still wants to play for a few more years, she doesn't want to be bound by any form of family ties, although the businessman sister in front of her is playing yin, but with such superior conditions, it is also very cost-effective to think about it.

"You have to keep your promise, you know I'm even afraid of myself when I'm angry~" As he spoke, he pointed to the flat text on the table with his fingertips, and quickly pulled out the few pieces of paper that were useful at the bottom-

Application form for employment at Shengmei Biotech.

"Of course I've seen your destructiveness." Guan Zimo was in a good mood and looked at someone's depressed expression, it was rare to see it in a hundred years.

Knock Knock –

There was a knock on the secretary's door outside.

"Well, if nothing else, I'll take my leave." Guan Shili straightened her slightly messy hair, shook her head, and opened the door with a happy expression, knowing that she would be bored and suffocated if she stayed with her old sister for an afternoon. When I saw the secretary Dai Shu when I was leaving, her eyes were always rippling, which made the secretary bow her head slightly.

"See you next time, Xiao Shushu~"

As soon as the words fell, the chairman's door, which had been broken, now showed a mottled and broken precursor.

"Sister, you're going to frighten your secretary like this." Completely ignoring the gloomy eyes of the old lady "forbidden to molest subordinates", Guan Shili sneered. "Britney, it's your misfortune to have such a bad personality and headache boss, you can go to me at any time if you can't stand it~"

"Well, you, you go slowly."

Dai Shu looked at this senior consultant whose whereabouts were completely different from the chairman's personality, and then looked at the door of the poor chairman's office, hey, why did the chairman destroy public property every time Miss Shili came? Poor her, she has to go to the finance department every time to apply for a stipend, so that the door is stronger, and so on, isn't the company's chief financial officer Miss Seri, no wonder......

Looking up at the chairman's eyes at minus 20 degrees in the room, Mom, I really want to go home......

Chapter IV

Jasmine, fragrant orchid, lemon blossom – sweet aromas float in the dense darkness.

The cold night breeze blows on your face with a refreshing breath, and from the labyrinthine corridors you look down at the chaos of the old streets, you can see the minaret of the cathedral standing not far away, and in front of you is the dense market of the same traders, which is open until late at night. There is a faint scent of citrus in the wind, and because there is a perfume market nearby, the gold and silver handicrafts displayed on the precious metal street shine brightly, and even standing here is dazzling. For young girls, it's like a fairy tale scene.

The city at night is beautiful and dreamlike.

Apparently, the fashionably dressed woman with a smile on her eyebrows did not stop at the dazzling beauty of the night market, but habitually put her hands in her coat pockets and strolled through the staggered streets, stopping at the door of a quaint handmade perfume shop next to the cathedral of worship.

The hostess of the shop has blonde hair, and it seems that the other party is about to hang a wooden sign saying "closed".

"If it closes so early, can you mind taking in the homeless people~?"

The low voice is as light and seductive as the improvisation of a harp in the night.

The blonde woman turned her head abruptly, and after seeing the person clearly, she exclaimed in surprise, "Sindy!" How did you come back!? He trotted all the way to hug the smiling brunette woman.

"What? Think of me so much~? ”

"! Fast into the house. ”

The chiseled European woman speaks Mandarin close to fluent, and when she trots, she pulls the guidance of the wind with a faint smell of perfume, and if it were not for someone who knows her, it is really hard to imagine that this plump blonde woman was once Russia's premier doctor of clinical virology.

Guan Shili was pushed into the store, and the soft fragrance on her face calmed her restless mood, and she looked at her friends who used to work together, "I can't imagine that the expert who used to hold a scalpel has now changed careers to become a perfumer, and it seems that there is still such a thing, Dolly~"

"Shili, count how many times you will laugh at me, I have said it many times, you are the one who holds the scalpel, I am only studying clinical viruses!" The woman named Dolly blames the other party for the fact that she never cared about it.

"Ahh Recently、It is estimated that the next period of time will be busy。 Guan Shili muttered as he casually played with the small sun-dried petals beside him.

"Are you going to do some dangerous work again?" Dolly sighed at the other party's flickering ice blue eyes, "Say, what are you looking for me for this time?" ”

"Don't call me like a debt collector." Guan Shili scratched his hair with some annoyance, and took out a glassware from behind him, "This, I need to know its ingredients." ”

Aren't you? Dolly looked at the tiny container on the table, where there was a gradient yellow-transparent spider that was difficult to identify with the naked eye.

"Where did you get this strange thing?" Muttering, Dolly carefully placed the utensils in the safe on the lower level. "And this time, when are you leaving?" Although I was very reluctant, I still asked for the exit.

Sure enough, seeing the other party's pupils widen and then regain his calm, "I just came and wanted to take me away......"

"You should ...... too"

"Aunt Sindy!" The sleepy-eyed little girl who ran down from the attic happily called out to Guan Shili, interrupting her mother's nagging.

The woman happily caught each other and circled, "Yo, little baby, do you want to be Auntie, by the way, Auntie didn't bring you a gift this time, ......will you make up for it next time?"

"Don't bring any more gifts, her bedroom is full of all kinds of toys you gave her." Looking at the scene of Seri and her daughter laughing, Dolly didn't bother them anymore, but was a little worried, her best friend was like the wind, free and ethereal, and would not stay in one place for long.

From the past, she was comfortable doing everything, as if nothing in front of her could stump her. A retreat student of Professor Johansen Sr. at the Hopskin School of Medicine, he is more relaxed than himself. She's perfect, kind and blushing, and she's not real. Maybe it's because I've been together for a long time, the first and only time I've seen this guy's unconcealable sad look - a lonely and compassionate look, although it's only for a moment.

Guan Shili looked at his friend who came over with a smile, and the other party pretended to be annoyed, handed him a glass of wine from nowhere, and then reminded him kindly, "I only drink ......"

"Magot's, it's the only one that can gag your mouth."
