Ember Restaurant.

Two Arasaka executives are meeting in the bathroom.

A few customers who were about to enter the bathroom saw Tanaka Arasaka's identity and noticed that something didn't seem right, so they turned around and left.

Everyone in Night City knows that you must not provoke companies at will, especially Arasaka Company, if you accidentally know the secrets of Arasaka's high-level management, I am afraid that it will cause trouble that you can't get out of.

Tanaka didn't plan to mention what happened to his son in the bathroom, because he had already seen that Katsuo Tanaka was slapped by Tang Yu, but it wasn't a major injury.

He was more concerned about the data he wanted, about the human body operation data of the prosthesis, which involved an extremely important prototype installation experiment, which was still in the stage of confidential research, so he continued to ask.

"Aren't you afraid that Abernathan will target you and sabotage your operations?"

"As far as I know, Arthur Jenkins has given you the task of finding the data of the military-grade Ann Westein operation"

"And I don't want to see the struggle between the two of you affect the mission of the prosthetics."

Tang Yu didn't have much to do with Tanaka before, but it was judged that he was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the R&D department belonged to the absolute core department of Arasaka Company, and it was impossible for Arasaka Saburo to let outsiders be in charge, shook off the water stains on his hands, took a tissue to dry, and then said:

"I think you should tell that to that stinky cousin of Abernathy."

"I'm just a deputy minister of counterintelligence, and I don't have that much energy in Night City."

"I worked hard for the company, and I was targeted by the company's director of special operations, and even carried out an assassination attack, no wonder people outside said that Arasaka is a kennel"

After speaking, he threw the paper towel into the hidden wall-mounted garbage bin and calmly walked out of the bathroom.

Tang Yu doesn't need Totanaka at all, he has already been targeted by a special operations director in the company, and it is nothing to have one more R&D department, besides, it was Jenkins who promoted him, and he has nothing to do with Tanaka and others, and the most important thing in Arasaka Company is to be able to get things done, the more submissive he is, the more people will be trampled on the soles of his feet like cigarette butts, and he didn't forget to run over twice.

Tanaka's brows were furrowed and faintly displeased, he had always been proud of the city, but for the young man in front of him, he felt extremely bad and irritable in his heart, and even the hand in his trouser pocket was clenched to death.

There was a moment of silence.

Tanaka still chose to paced out of the bathroom, and left the ember restaurant with Katsuo Tanaka, who had been slapped hard, and the hot dishes on the table of the two were still steaming.

Katsuo Tanaka covered his face with his right hand, and followed his father into the elevator downstairs aggrievedly, seeing his father's face serious and unhappy, he didn't want to say anything more, but the aggrieved anger in his heart made him extremely uncomfortable, so he asked cautiously.

"Father, is that all there is..."

Tanaka said in a deep voice: "Shut up"

He knew that he couldn't have a conflict with Tang Yu now, the main business and work of the R&D department were carried out secretly, and when it came to the field, he also needed to use the counterintelligence department, especially about the human experiment data, if it was leaked and even exposed by a hostile company, it would inevitably end up with the impression that the board of directors was ineffective.

Especially regarding the prosthetic body, once the military technology knows about Arasaka's intentions to reclaim it, and gets clues from the cyber madman James to continue tracking, things will be even more difficult to handle.

The driver, Maxim, had just finished his first cigarette downstairs when he received an order to leave, and parked his car in front of the Ember Nightclub early.

Tanaka's father and son returned to the limousine, and Tanaka explained a little:

"He is the deputy head of the counterintelligence department of the company"

Katsuo Tanaka was stunned.

He never imagined that he would be slapped in the toilet, and that person happened to be a high-level employee of Arasaka Company, and finally understood why his father let him go out first, and this revenge may be difficult to revenge.

Katsuo Tanaka covered his gloomy face and didn't speak again, knowing that he couldn't find Tang Yu, who was a senior member of the company, to take revenge, so he transferred all the humiliation and hatred he suffered to David's head, and muttered in his heart.

"David, you're completely dead this time!"

"If it weren't for you, how could I have offended the company's top management, and how could I have been slapped"

"You're really too unlucky"

"Heh, it was really cheap for you to drop out of school in the first place, not only should you not drop out, but you should also be trampled and crushed to death by me like an ant in the academy!"

...

David sat on the toilet and noticed that it was much quieter outside.

Vaguely overheard the conversation between Tang Yu and Tanaka, involving human experiments and what kind of prosthetics, these high-level secrets of Arasaka made him feel more and more repulsed and disgusted with Arasaka.

What shocked him the most was that it turned out that Tang Yu had offended a higher senior director in the company, and was even attacked and assassinated by his colleagues in the company.

But Tang Yu always gave him the feeling of being in power, and he didn't offend the company's top management at all and looked worried, and even being assassinated and attacked was so easy.

This had a huge impact on David's perception and perception of Tang Yu.

"Could it be that the real culprit of the car accident that day was the people of Arasaka Company?"

"It must be the attack and killing operation carried out by the high-level Arasaka against him!"

"But Mr. Tang was obviously assassinated by the company, but in the end he chose to save us"

"And I just taught Katsuo Tanaka a lesson, is this also for me?

"What kind of person is he..."

David couldn't figure it out, but felt that the name Arasaka was getting darker and darker, like a black hole devouring and pulling everything around him, and his right foot trembled even more.

After the bathroom was completely silent, David walked out of the toilet in frustration and returned to the lobby of the Ember Restaurant, first standing in the corner and looking around to make sure that there was no Tanaka father and son, before slowly walking to his table.

Before he got close to the dining table, David saw Tang Yuzheng talking and laughing with his mother in a red dress with a relaxed face, as if he didn't care about what happened in the bathroom just now.

David felt more and more that Tang Yu was unpredictable and elusive, and he was very sure that Tang Yu knew that Katsuo Tanaka had blocked himself in the toilet, and judging from Gloria's demeanor, she shouldn't have known that Tang Yu had been on a par with Tanaka's father and son just now in order to relieve herself.

David patted his face, trying to keep his mind from thinking so much, before walking back to his seat.

Gloria was a little unhappy when she saw David finally come back from the bathroom.

She thought that David had just gone to the dining area to eat so many expensive dishes, and he hid in the bathroom and didn't know what to do, so Tang Yu waited for a long time, and felt that David was indeed impolite today, but he was interrupted when he just wanted to teach him the truth of being a man.

Tang Yu picked up the gift box and took the initiative to stand up and said: "Today's dishes are really not good, I feel a little bad after eating, and I will invite you to come to the house as guests next time I have the opportunity, it is much cleaner and more hygienic."

Gloria felt a little apologetic, and she didn't care about educating David, so she quickly stood up and said embarrassedly:

"I let Mr. Tang break the bill again today, next time I..."

I just wanted to say that I would be a guest at home next time, but I couldn't help it when I thought of the dilapidated house and bad craftsmanship, so I had to change my words:

"Mr. Tang, I must come for a treat next time!"
