Arasaka Tower.

Tang Yu took the elevator to prepare to go to the counterintelligence department on the 33rd floor.

He raised his hand and looked at the back of his hand, which was a little red, and thought of the majesty of the old woman who had stepped on it just now.

"Susan Abernathy, this is whether your counterintelligence homework is still insufficient"

The reason why Tang Yu was able to step on her face openly was because he had more information about her, and the other party probably didn't know his hole cards until now.

"It's not hard to be strong, and it's time to put it on the agenda, if you put it in the past, how can your hands be red?"

And the electronic screen in the elevator room, as usual, looped the "great" life of the god of Arasaka, and when he saw those old black and white photos, even if Tang Yu heard and saw it countless times, the feeling of nausea increased unabated.

Whenever this happens, he thinks of that prodigal Johnny.

A ghost, an electronic ghost that really hovers above Arasaka's head, a real pure anti-imperialist, anti-hegemony and anti-capital combat warrior.

"There is urine, but the strength is a little fishing"

This is Tang Yu's consistent evaluation of Johnny

With that in mind.

Tang Yu put on his headphones again to play music and hummed softly.

The broadcast on the electronic screen continues.

"The wound suffered by Saburo Arasaka in 1942 was so severe that he could no longer continue to complete combat missions for his country"

He could only watch as the empire he had defended began to retreat, and finally announced his unconditional surrender in 1945

"According to Saburo Arasaka's family, he was so desperate and humiliated that he decided to commit suicide by seppuku to thank his country, but he changed his mind at the last minute."

"The reason, no one knows..."

Ding dong!

The elevator gate automatically opens from the middle, and you can reach the office area of the Counterintelligence Department on the 33rd floor.

Tang Yu passed through the department hall according to the previous route, passed the front desk and public office area to the left, and then walked into the corridor, which was lined with red light intelligence data processing centers, and there were also staff members of the counterintelligence department who were busy inside, and finally arrived at his office to verify his identity and enter.

He directly used the office communication to notify Carter to come to report to work, then took off his black coat and trench coat and hung it on the silver and iron hook on the wall, accelerated the hot white boil, unbuttoned the suit, and sat down at his office desk with a glass teacup.

"Whew, whew..."

Tang Yu gently blew away the heat from the mouth of the cup, and then took a sip of boiled water, which was a little hot but felt good.

He estimated that apart from himself, he couldn't find a second person in the entire Arasaka Tower to drink hot boiled, which was one of the few exclusive habits he had retained to this day, after all, he didn't feel very worried about the water source of Night City, and he always felt clean and comfortable when he boiled it.

Soon.

Carter hurried to the office to report, still looking honest, standing across the desk with a hunched back and a low brow.

Tang Yu looked at him and thought, this kind of person is really more disgusting than Abernathy, one in front of him and one behind him, a typical villain, if he is allowed to climb on his head, he will not know where to offend him.

"Tell me about the last time you were watched, what's the latest situation"

Carter still stammered and rambled for a long time before he finally managed to make things clear.

"Uh, I, I, I was on the underground black market of the "Night City" network in the early hours of this morning, and I found a message about the public price of the Synwistein prosthesis, the standard model is unknown and the price is not low, but the sale was quickly withdrawn"

"Later, I checked the relevant clues of this IP and found that the other party and the connector of the vortex gang have private chat records, but the specific content has been destroyed, and there is no way to know more details"

Tang Yu didn't nod, and decided in his heart that Mann should have started to act, this was to signal to himself and Arasaka's people, and the time to add fire to an assist had come.

So, Tang Yu scolded directly with a straight face: "Do you look like a pig's brain, that's how you do things?" I obviously saw the clues and didn't know to continue to investigate, if this transaction was completed in private, would you go to the Watson factory to find the vortex to help the cyber maniac snatch the prosthetic? ”

"!"

Carter was reprimanded by Tang Yu so much that he nodded his head again and again, his forehead was so nervous that sweat came out, and when he heard the rolling words, he immediately turned around and walked out of the door, but he was shouted again.

Tang Yu: "If Mr. Jenkins asks about this matter, you should not know, take out this useless clue, and report the work in the future to achieve results!" Do you understand the results? ”

Carter hurriedly turned around at the door and nodded yes, the office electronic gate that was supposed to be closed only closed halfway through when it detected someone and stopped.

Carter, who had just turned to go out, suddenly slowed down and stood against the wall quietly eavesdropping on the movement in the office, as if he heard Tang Yuzheng and Jenkins report on the search of the prosthetics.

Tang Yu: "The transaction clues have been found, it should be bought by the Vortex Gang, as long as you follow the trace, there is no problem in getting the data"

Jenkins: "..."

Tang Yu: "Okay, I will definitely complete the task"

Carter heard that Tang Yu had just turned his head and sold it to Minister Arthur Jenkins, and his originally honest expression gradually became gloomy.

When the office doors closed automatically, Carter stared straight ahead, twisted his neck and walked back to his office.

Carter Smith, who had just returned to the office, turned on the office computer and continued to decipher and decrypt the work, as he used his hands and brains together, lines of code flowed, information boxes jumped out, and the final picture was frozen on a chat history dialog.

Carter stared at the dialog box, which showed the chat history of the encrypted IP, which was about the details of the negotiation between the seller behind the scenes and the Vortex Gang connectors, and the two sides agreed to meet at nine o'clock tomorrow night at the abandoned steel factory in Watson's old industrial area.

Carter stared at the screen and sneered, "Make a deal with those cyber maniacs of the Vortex Gang, these prosthetic resellers don't know how to write dead words"

"With this information, it is more likely that he will be promoted to the head of the H-level department"

"Tang Yu, Tang Yu, at a young age, he will only bully others"

"It's a pity that I can't compare to you if I get promoted, hehe, but your good days are coming to an end"

"After this incident, you just wait to die!"

He downloaded the deciphered data from the computer and copied it into a disposable security chip, and just as he was about to continue his operation, his mother Mary suddenly sent a message.

Mary: "How's work today, it's your birthday tomorrow, can you find time to come back?" ”

Carter received his mother's message, and his gloomy expression was much softened.

Arasaka's work is open all year round, and he must be on call 24 hours a day, and he has more than one task assigned by the deputy minister at hand, and he has to be responsible for promoting large and small projects in the group.

He is very envious of the M-level management, who has full freedom to control the working hours, unlike himself who has to pick a day even when he goes back to see his mother.

Fortunately, if it goes well tomorrow night, I will be able to go back to celebrate my mother's birthday, so I replied: "I try my best, if it goes well, I will try to get off work at eight o'clock, and I should be able to come back before twelve o'clock."

Mary: "Okay, but it doesn't matter if you don't come back, after all, work is the most important thing"

Carter saw that his mother understood him, so he didn't say anything more, inserted the secret chip into the nerve groove in the back of his head, and got up to talk about a business that was about to change his fate...
