"This, this thing...... You listen to my explanation...... "Speaking of buying and selling Sister Xue's body, even Anne became embarrassed. After Shepard was killed, her body somehow fell into the hands of a group of Batarui mercenaries. Then, naturally, it was bought first by a well-informed group of shadow brokers. However, the shadow broker did not intend to make Sister Xue's corpse into a specimen, but put it directly on the open market as a strange commodity, and sold it to Cerberus after several price increases.

…… Anne is in charge of the whole process, trying to keep the plot as it is - and make a fortune! In order to raise the price, Anne even released the news very modestly, saying that she planned to sell Sister Xue's body to the reapers......

"Do you know how miserable you were at the time? 80% of the body was burned to charcoal, less than three-fifths of the body remained, the brain was completely dead, and there were thousands of fragments inside the torso......" Anne began to describe in detail the tragic situation of Sister Xue at that time.

Hearing Annie's explanation, even Sister Xue herself couldn't help frowning, it was really miserable!

Finally, Anne took a breath and said in a concluding manner, "Shepard, you should understand, if I give your body to the Star Alliance, they will only put you in a coffin, and then bury you with the Star Alliance flag - at most, a few heat dissipation rods will be wasted by firing into the sky, and it will definitely not cost billions of Star Dollars to save you!" Only Cerberus...... They have the genetic technology to resurrect you, and they have the determination to resurrect you at all costs, so my only option is to give your body to Cerberus...... Of course, it is paid. ”

Well, Anne's words are not lying in principle. The reasons also seem unassailable. Sister Xue pouted dissatisfiedly, but she had nothing to say. If Anne had given her body to the Star Alliance, she would have been buried in the Martyrs' Cemetery by now...... There is absolutely no possibility of resurrection.

The Dawn wants to resurrect Sister Xue. Of course, you don't need that kind of ancient and complex genetic technology - the five-ring magic technique, burning a man-made diamond - the total cost is no more than 1,000 star yuan, and it can be done in minutes!

Even if it is handed over to Ikexue to recreate the body, there is no need to be so troublesome - according to Lu Yuan's original plan, he wanted to use this opportunity to blackmail Cerberus for a good time. Sister Xue actually spent 4 billion star yuan to resurrect the dog! Are you still a little cost conscious?! Someone must have embezzled it! Give 4 billion to the Dawn, and Lu Yuan can help them resurrect 10,000 Shepard - 1 resurrection, and clone 9,999 Sister Xue as a gift! In this way, the Dawn can still net 3,999.9 million star dollars!

Of course. Now that the relationship is broken, of course the OEM business can't be done...... However, if Martin. Luther...... No. If Lu Yuan was still around, he would definitely be saddened by Cerberus's prodigal behavior.

"How much did it sell?!" Sister Xue finally changed her focus angrily.

"This ......" Anne looked at Liara in embarrassment, and the Asari was embarrassed to say anything, so she could only raise three fingers in embarrassment.

"It's only 30,000 star dollars? Why is it so cheap?! Sister Xue repeated incredulously. He felt humiliated - though he was not sure by whom he was humiliated - and he was furious! "Sister, even if you go out to sell meat, it's not so cheap!"

"That. Dear, you didn't talk about four figures...... It's 300 million star dollars! Anne hurriedly corrected.

There was silence in the main control room.

"Hmm!" I heard that Sister Xue's mutilated corpse was actually more expensive than a battleship! At this price, even Liara was so shocked that she couldn't speak. As for Shepard, the owner of the body, while being shocked, he even had the urge to sell it again!

…… If it's 300 million star dollars, it seems that it is not so unacceptable for the corpse to be sold--three deaths can replicate a Fifth Fleet, and the picture is too beautiful......

"Wait!" Seeing that Shepard seemed to be going to die like this, Liara quit! Don't say that her partner Fallon is still trapped in the "shadow broker" organization. There is no one in life, no one in death, no corpse in death. Even in terms of personal emotion, she did not allow herself to back down in the face of Anne. "Even if you bought and sold Shepard's body in the first place, it would be fine. Shadow brokers still can't change the nature of evil! You hand over Feron right away, I know he's in the shadow broker's hands! ”

"Feren?" Hearing Liara's words, Anne looked Liara up and down in surprise. "Liara...... What do you want to do to my number one subordinate? ”

"Number one subordinate?!"

Then Liara's former partner, Feeron, stepped out of the darkness and came behind Anne, who had been standing in the darkness behind the console. "What's going on? Then why are you lying to me......" Seeing Feeron, Asari's entire belief that supported her collapsed. Since Faren has always been serving the organization safe and sound, what is her hard search for the past two years?!

"After completing the mission, the agent escaped by feigning his death and cut off the connection with the person involved in the mission...... Isn't that normal? Faced with a partner he had worked with on a past mission, Fallon replied politely and politely, although the two had a brief romantic relationship. But his identity, first and foremost, is an agent. "Whether it's life or death, we shouldn't have any more contact after the mission is done. I thought you should understand that......"

Hearing that it was this answer, Liara and Sister Xue were speechless - well, Sister Xue is the ghost of Star Alliance N7 and Divine Castle; Liara is a graduate of Team Asharit, so why does she seem so unprofessional compared to Feren?

Anne snickered on the side, roaring and roaring~ If it was still the Ya Ge in the past who was in charge of the "shadow broker" organization, maybe he would lock up Faeron S/M. But Anne took over the organization two years ago, and her style of doing things has long since changed. Now that Ferron is loyal to Anne and helps Anne run the "Shadow Brokers" organization perfectly, Liara is blinded.

……

"We are fighting against the Reaper, and we need the intelligence support of an organization like the Shadow Brokers, and that is to save the world!" Liara whispered to Sister Xue.

Shepard smiled wryly, she couldn't have guessed Liara's thoughts. It's nothing more than that after suffering a loss, she wants to make up for it from somewhere else no matter what, so she pokes Sister Xue out. But Sister Xue is now like a scumbag sandwiched between the original partner and the junior, she has no confidence at all, and her heart is very weak - especially when one has died for her once, and the other has been running around for her corpse for several years, even more so.

However, just as Shepard hesitated, Anne threw an electronic board over. "Next!" Sister Xue subconsciously caught the electronic board.

"That's the dynamic password to open the host, and the person who holds the password is the fourth shadow broker...... I only left with Faerun, and the organization gave it to you! Anne said freely. Feren reappeared behind her like a shadow, holding a small suitcase in his hand, standing without saying a word. Obviously, Annie's decision was probably made as early as when Sister Xue and the others boarded the battleship, and Fei Lun was ready to leave with Annie.

"Wait, isn't that too hasty? And what to do with this cruiser? Shepard was a little dizzy by the sudden gift. If, as Liara said, the most it is to ask for intelligence sharing, which is not the same thing as transferring the entire organization! If it had been in the past, she might not have taken the gift too seriously. But it was precisely in the process of pursuing the shadow agent with Liara that Sister Xue really saw the power of this intelligence organization!

The all-knowing power that permeates every corner of the galaxy is terrifying.

"It's all for you! Shepard you still have to save the galaxy, and the Shadow Brokers are better off being put in the hands of someone else, and I think Liara is a good candidate. After Anne finished speaking, she waved her hand in a chic manner. When she left the room from the other side, she gave a military salute to Sister Xue. Shepard...... Looking forward to fighting alongside you again and see you next time! ”

"Goodbye, Annie." Shepard looked at Anne's back as she left and said sadly. Although it is said that they are reunited after a long absence, and they are both near deaths, but during the whole meeting just now, the two people have always stood at a distance to communicate-as if there is an invisible gap between the two people......

"Anne is right, I don't have time to control this organization. Over to you, Liara. Sister Xue casually stuffed the electronic board to Liara and walked to the console alone. Her fingers unconsciously tapped over the table and the chair Anne had sat on, as if she could still feel Anne's presence...... Although Anne has left, her heart misses her even more than before, and even wants to chase her out and leave Anne behind!

"What's going on?!" Liara, who happily logged in to the host computer with the electronic board, suddenly screamed. "Why is there a whopping 1.5 billion star dollars in arrears?!"

******

In the dim escape passage of the battleship, Anne walked in front laughing, and Fei Lun followed behind with a suitcase, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile.

What was in the box was the last working capital of the shadow broker organization - "The unscrupulous boss ran away with the money, and the employees in arrears had no way to appeal!" This scene seems to have played out again......

As mentioned before, the Dawn is embarking on the largest shipbuilding project in history! A standard Starlink-class cruiser would need about 1.4 million parts. With so many parts, for the convenience of repair and readiness (the ship can be overhauled in most of the docks in the galaxy), of course, it is impossible for all of them to be produced in-house by the Dawn. In addition to the core components, most of the standard parts have to be purchased from the entire galaxy through the channel of the shadow brokers.

Therefore, the need for funds on the Dawn is limitless and will never be enough. In addition to Lu Yuan's copyrights and shares, and Muxing's patents, the "Shadow Broker" organization also became a tool for the Dawn to collect money - although this organization was hated, it had a good reputation and was able to borrow money from banks on a large scale...... This is where the arrears come from.

1.5 billion in arrears, it's not much.

If Sister Xue and Liara ask for help from Cerberus, the Star Alliance, or the Citadel Council, the money can be taken out by all three organizations, and of course the pain is inevitable. Who made the "shadow broker" in addition to arrears, but also very high-quality assets. (To be continued......)
