Chapter 33: The Vortex of the First Day of Employment
Early in the morning, the Cambi Building.
David Martinez stood in front of the electronic mirror screen, sorted out his appearance, and made sure that his tie was tied and his suit was neatly wrinkled, and then turned and walked towards the door.
Exit the hotel room, walk into the public elevator hall, verify the customer's identity information, and choose to go to the hotel lobby.
It didn't take long.
When David arrived at the hotel lobby, he found that the security had recently increased several times compared to usual, and even the security guards guarding the gate had arranged six to check and verify the customers entering and leaving the hotel.
And that's not all.
The building has also activated a full identity verification system, allowing all patrons to access only the floors they live on and some public open areas.
David had heard that a certain big man had stayed in the hotel, but he didn't know who it was.
He walked out of the Kambi Building, where a limousine was already parked and waiting.
David stepped forward and pulled the car door, sat down expertly, and then shouted.
"Mom."
In the carriage.
Gloria sat upright and smiled very gratifying when she saw her son David's handsome dress.
"Are you ready to go to the graduation ceremony?"
David nodded, indicating that everything was ready.
Today is the day of the graduation ceremony of Arasaka Academy, and it is also the last day of David's attendance at the academy.
He has been living in a hotel since he finished his internship at Arasaka, as Gloria told him that distant relatives at home were going to stay for a while.
Gloria's eyes turned, and the vehicle started autopilot mode, heading towards its destination, Arasaka Tower.
"Are you still used to staying in hotels these days?"
David sighed softly, and his tone was a little helpless: "Mom, the people who live in Kwonbi are much better than at home, I just don't think there's any need to spend this money." ”
He knew that Gloria was now in charge of running the Lizzie Bar, and it was much easier to make money than before, but he was used to saving money since he was a child, and he didn't want to spend lavishly.
One cannot only look at the present, but also plan for the future.
Gloria comforted calmly: "David, you have joined the Arasaka company now, and it is normal to live in the Chubi Building, and when you become an elite in the workplace in the future, you should change to a better villa." ”
said.
Her eyes revealed her expectations for David's future, and Tang Yu's figure appeared in her mind.
If one day, David can be as good as Tang Yu, then her lifelong dreams and desires will all come true.
David didn't know why, but his mood was a little low, and he couldn't be happy, but when he saw the relieved smile on his mother's face, he still cooperated and barely squeezed out a smile.
He finally got to where he is today, and achieved something that many people can't achieve, and successfully joined Arasaka after graduation.
This alone makes anyone extremely happy and proud.
David recalled the process of joining the company, Tang Yu had talked to him and asked him what he really thought in his heart.
In the face of such a profound problem, David didn't think it through, but hesitantly and obediently said that he wanted to join Arasaka Company.
It seems that if he doesn't say yes, he will disappoint Tang Yu and disappoint his mother Gloria.
After all, David didn't know how to go in the future, and now there was a bright and beautiful road in front of him, and he had no reason to refuse.
Therefore.
He submitted his resume to Arasaka Company, participated in multiple rounds of interviews, re-examinations, and general examinations, and finally got a place to join Arasaka Company.
When he told Gloria the news, as he expected, Gloria was overjoyed.
When David thought of the car accident, and compared with the scene at this moment, he was happy and moved from the bottom of his heart, but he was still confused.
Seeing that David's interest didn't seem to be high, Gloria had to smile and comfort: "After joining the company, it will slowly become smooth in the future, I believe in you." ”
David didn't say a word, kept looking out the window, and nodded silently.
The vehicle is getting closer and closer to the company square, and he is getting closer and closer to the Arasaka Tower.
Gloria also felt the emotions in David's heart, and she couldn't help but feel a little helpless, but she still believed that when the result came, David would definitely understand her intentions.
Suddenly.
She felt a pang of restlessness, and the sudden feeling of dizziness made her want to throw up.
David noticed her abnormality and hurriedly asked with concern, "Mom, what's wrong?" ”
Gloria hurriedly activated the ventilation and explained: "It's just a little motion sickness, it's okay, the place is here, you can go to the meeting quickly." ”
David was a little worried, but seeing that Gloria was fine, he told her to take care of herself, so he pushed the car door and stepped out of the car and walked towards the main entrance of Arasaka Tower.
After closing the car door again, Gloria's heart thumped, and she slowly reached out and touched her belly, her pupils showing shock.
The other side.
David passed through the security check at the gate of Arasaka Tower and took the public elevator to the college auditorium.
There was still a while before the graduation ceremony, and the students wore their own dresses and gathered together to talk and laugh.
David is not interested in chatting, and usually deals with his classmates to sell Mewtwo and game chips, but now he doesn't need these, so naturally there is nothing to talk about.
He had no choice but to find his seat first, and when he glanced around, he found that his name was not in the back row where he used to sit.
David had no choice but to step forward and look closer, row by row, and his name was absent from the rows where he often sat in the back.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that David Martinez's electronic seat tag was placed in the first row, near the center.
That place, when the academy was opened, had always belonged to the children of those powerful people, and he had nothing to do with it.
But this time, he was arranged to sit in the first row.
David blinked, thinking he was dazzled, but after reconfirming, he found that he was sitting in the first row.
Then.
He didn't really want to take a seat early.
The rest of the classmates were not seated, and he was alone in the early seat, sitting in the first row would inevitably attract attention, and he didn't like the feeling of being quietly watched and discussed.
Just as he hesitated to take his seat, a familiar voice came.
"David, your position is over here."
David followed the prestige and saw that the source of the voice was none other than his classmate, Katsuo Tanaka.
Unlike before, Katsuo Tanaka's face was full of smiles, and his demeanor was not as arrogant and domineering as before, and his expression was as happy as if he was greeting his old classmates.
In the face of Katsuo Tanaka's enthusiasm, David didn't want to pay attention to it, but he found that the seats of the two were next to each other, which was unavoidable no matter what.
David reluctantly got up and walked over, said hello to Katsuo Tanaka painlessly, and leaned back in his seat.
He guessed what the reason was, it must have been that both of them had joined the Arasaka company, so they were specially arranged by the academy to sit in the front row, and they were still next to each other.
Katsuo Tanaka didn't mind David's indifference, so he sat next to him and stepped forward and said, "David, I didn't expect you to really succeed in joining Arasaka Company, and now we have become colleagues from classmates to colleagues, congratulations." ”
Moment.
David feels that Katsuo Tanaka is really suitable for mixed workplaces, not only can bend and stretch, but also has excellent technical literacy.
He had to politely reply two sentences, and the resentment of the past three years made him have no good impression of Katsuo Tanaka.
Katsuo Tanaka's eyes moved slightly, but he still couldn't help but not show it, and just whispered: "The results of the company's internal job allocation have come out, and I must go to the R&D department." ”
Assignment?
David then remembered the company's job assignment, but he had been interning in the counterintelligence department, so he should not be assigned to other departments, so he had to ask patiently.
"It's good for you to go to the R&D department, it's suitable for you in all aspects."
Katsuo Tanaka waved his hand: "The R&D department is suitable for me, but you know this department, it is difficult to take a step up, unlike your department, there are many opportunities for meritorious service, and if you make rapid progress forward, you are very envious." ”
David was really curious, and he wasn't sure what he would do if he really wasn't assigned to the Counterintelligence Department.
"Katsuo Tanaka, may I ask, what department did I get into?"
Katsuo Tanaka looked generous, looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one, he whispered, "Special Operations Department." ”
Special Operations Department?
David's pupils shrank suddenly, completely stunned.
I didn't react for a while, why I was assigned to this department.
Whether it was Mr. Tang's deliberate arrangement or the result of the automatic assignment by the personnel department, he did not know.
The point is that he knows that the Counterintelligence Department and the Special Operations Department have always been at odds.
Katsuo Tanaka said with envy: "The Special Operations Department is an important department with real power, and Mr. Tang is also the deputy minister, you will definitely do a good job in the future." ”
In Katsuo Tanaka's view, whether David went to the Counterintelligence Department or the Special Operations Department, it was a very good result.
Because these two departments hold a lot of power, they have a lot of opportunities to go out to perform tasks, and if they do an errand well, they can even be promoted and reused like Tang Yu.
Moreover, Tang Yu is also the deputy minister of two departments, and it is more than enough to cover David.
Regarding the relationship between Tang Yu and David, Katsuo Tanaka believes that there must be some connection between them.
But David was completely stunned by this assignment news, causing his brain to buzz and unable to concentrate on the present.
Katsuo Tanaka reminded him to report to the Special Operations Department, and then he could go to the Arasaka Prosthetic Implant Center for basic remodeling, and then select some suitable prosthetics.
David just nodded mechanically and thanked Katsuo Tanaka for being kind enough to send some extra company goods.
This is a basic onboarding process, which is a company norm and involves some R&D department business.
It didn't take long.
The graduation ceremony begins.
David found that there was no Tang Yu among the senior executives of the company present, and while he was a little disappointed, his heart began to become a little uneasy.
Joining the Special Operations Department of Arasaka Company, he had to report this matter to Tang Yu.
Although he did not know the purpose of such an arrangement, he could realize that it was better to go to any other department than to go to the Special Operations Department.
It is true that Tang Yu is the deputy head of the Special Operations Department, but Susan Abernathy, who wanted to kill him at the beginning, is the actual head of this department.
David was keenly aware of a whirlpool that was beginning to surge, and on his first day on the job, he wanted to get caught up in it and couldn't escape.
Not tonight!
