Chapter 47: The Funeral
"Mr. Li, the strength of your prosthetic bone is close to that of a fifth-level military alloy, and it needs to be cut with a molecular knife, we are only a branch, and the equipment in our hands is limited, so we can't safely perform a craniotomy on you and install a built-in interface.
However, if you are in a hurry, I can customize a glove kit for you, which is an external frame for installing a ballistic coordinator, adding two data reading slots, installing your chip and ICE components, and a pair of AR glasses to build a subnet, and you can read the chip data. ”
Grass! Doctor! 3D printing a glove, plus a pair of glasses to Lao Tzu 1998? And you're a civilian-grade peripheral, which is not as good as CSI's military products!
"As for the skin grafting program, I have three specifications for you to choose from, the primary only basic dermis tissue braiding to stop bleeding, and then transplant the antibacterial bionic cortex.
On this basis, the intermediate level adds fireproof coating, insulating coating, and selects various specifications of subcutaneous ceramic ballistic armor, which is the most cost-effective.
Advanced and traceable heating energy converter, shaped energy capacitor, nano material ultra-light bulletproof armor, optical camouflage, molecular strain immune custom leather, with a one-time appearance facelift, and more store VIP exclusive member benefits......"
“……”
Li Pan looked at the tablet handed over, "As long as 9998!" "Shocking price 99998!" "Oh my God, it's a bargain! Now on! 999998! "Three packages.
Well, you can't say that people are particularly pitiful, after all, the cost of surgery is also included.
"1998+9998 thank you ......"
So when Li Pan was dressed in skin and walked out of the prosthetic store wearing gloves and glasses, the sun was dazzling again.
"Welcome to Chaos Technology Support, I am your intelligent assistant Fuxi, now linked to the public safety system for you.
Citizen Li Pan, account cash 5.32, loan repayment 8291.43. Total liabilities are 30XXXX.XX.
Your next debt will be settled on the 15th of this month, please keep your account fully balanced.
Your mental deviation values are normal, thank you for using the public safety system, and I wish you all the best. ”
Yes...... Lao Tzu's account has fallen below the new lower limit......
Well, in fact, it is enough for a legal account to break even, and he may still have five million assets on the virtual currency black market, and the second-hand brain plugs of the Oda family can be washed clean, and they can also be sold for more than 200,000 cash, and if the small gift given by President Fujido can also be repaired, it can also be returned.
However, these black money have to rely on eighteen, although she is a professional hacker but not a professional finance, it is estimated that there is no need to count on the repayment date this month. It seems that we still have to hurry up and start a wave of Shura, just wait for Eighteen to find the 'farm' and do a vote, and count on their family's harvest if they repay the loan this month.
By the way, this time, Yuchai Finance sent a lot of money to the monster company to 'apologize', but it was all 'overseas assets', so that Li Pan had no right to ask at all, which meant that he went bankrupt again this time, and finally sent a lot of benefits to the general managers of other dimensional subsidiaries.
It's not that the other party is deliberately trying to engage him, it's purely to compete for the title of Gao Tianyuan's executive officer, and the Yuchai family is almost bankrupt, cashing out a lot of assets in their own plane, and winning over the Night Clan Group and the Red Tengu. In these years, he is so willing to spend money, so he will naturally have a lot of help, and he will beat the other four elders and become the final big winner.
Anyway, the head office is very satisfied, and the assets of other planes are also assets, so I rewarded Li Pan with a silver key, okay......
Oh, my God...... So what's going to be for dinner tonight......
After a day's report, he could only come for a skin graft operation after work, and Li Pan was now dying of hunger.
Although the internal injuries were healed, the qi was smoothed, and the combat effectiveness was invincible, but the stomach was hungry again.
After the third turn of the Nine Yin Refining Form, Li Pan was in a state of hunger all the time. Obviously, he took advantage of the guards at the door to confront the Ye clan at breakfast, and went to the canteen to empty the rice bucket, and he couldn't stand it after work.
I only have 5 yuan in my pocket, so I have to go to the food relief station if I want to be full......
Li Pan was searching for which relief station to queue up faster on the Internet, when he suddenly received a text message from the pastor. It is said that the funeral is ready, and if you are free, you can go over, and if you can't catch it, you can also use the Mewtwo live broadcast link to take a look.
Funeral, well, in fact, there is no body to say goodbye to, that is, to play the hologram of the Big Bear family, and use artificial intelligence emotional simulation programs to make a farewell party.
After all, people are emotional animals, and sometimes although they know that the opposite side is a projection simulated by the program, although it is useless, the living still need a chance to say goodbye to their nostalgia.
Li Pan thought about it, but he still took the subway, and he didn't enter the church, but walked around the courtyard outside, which didn't look like a funeral, but more like a family gathering in the Latino community, with an altar on the grass and people singing and dancing.
Speaking of funerals, it is actually closer to the Latino characteristics of the Day of the Dead, whose culture seems to believe that dead family and friends can finally be reunited, and death is the end of old life and the beginning of new life.
In addition to the classic home-brewed tequila and yerba mate, there are also a variety of corn soup, chocolate, bread, zongzi, hot sauce, pumpkin, and all kinds of sweet desserts.
But when you're hungry, someone treats him, and maybe the bear really blesses him in another world.
So Li Pan shrugged, shook hands with the pastor and chatted, and went over to eat.
"Hey Ami, you're that Lee, right?"
was nibbling on pumpkin pie, and a big guy came up to talk,
"I'm Juan, and Lena is my cousin."
Li Pan wiped his hand on the tablecloth and shook hands with him,
"Well, oh, I heard the pastor mention that you're new to town? How about the City of Night? ”
Juan nodded,
"That's much better than in the wasteland, I don't know when the temporary residence permit will have to wait, thanks to Lena's help, I transferred her old house to my mother, it's a pity......
Alas, don't mention it, anyway, I also heard about it, thank you. Oh, I can't see how strong you are, you have a handle in your hands, is it a prosthetic? ”
Li Pan glanced at him, this young man has grown quite big, he should have used hormones to enhance it somewhat, and looked at the calluses on his hands.
"You box?"
Juan laughed heartily,
"Earn a fee for entering the city, don't fight now, the group of scavenging bastards outside, if you can't afford to lose, you will pull out a knife and stab someone, poof, Tamad! Almost stabbed me in the waist! Anyway, my mom was going to open a bar, so I'd give her a hand. ”
"The bar is good, and if you order a small dish, the small restaurant can make money."
"That's not it! That's what I said! One potato burrito can be sold for fifteen pieces in the night capital! Mamma Mia! It's a money grab! ”
"That's not it, it's just a money grab......"
Li Pan and Juan chatted together for a while, drank two glasses, and after a while, a few gangsters from the Lover's Gang called him to drink, and it seemed that they wanted to pull him into the gang, obviously they also took a fancy to Juan's size, even if he was a door god, it had a deterrent effect. But this young man seems to have been pushed, it seems that he has also seen the tragic situation in the black boxing arena, and he still has an old lady to support at home, and he doesn't want to live a bloody life on the street anymore.
People want to live a stable life, so Li Pan will not pull him in, so he eats by himself, and after a while, an old man in formal clothes comes to talk, but this is a silver-haired Asian, short and thin, standing in a military posture like a straight waist.
"Hello Mr. Li."
"Why, you can't be from Lena's side too, right?"
Then the old man showed him his ID.
"I'm from three places."
"Three? What three places. ”
Li Pan was inexplicable, and took the other party's documents and took a look.
PUBLIC SECURITY AGENCY
THE THIRD INVESTIGATION DEPARTMENT
Public Security Agency's Third Investigation Division
…… it? Fake, right?
Then Fu Xi said to him through the microphone in his glasses.
"It has now been linked to the public safety system for you, and the system confirms that the documents are legitimate, authentic and valid.
For the sake of public safety, citizens are requested to cooperate with the investigation of the Security Service agents to the extent permitted by law. ”
Li Pan had no choice but to swallow the cake in his mouth and hand the document back to the other party. Glancing around, he noticed that there were people coming and going, but no one seemed to notice the old man, as if he was an invisible ghost.
Has the network supervisor taken over the local permissions...... If someone doesn't know if someone smashes a cup as a number, it may not be necessary to suddenly descend a few divisions from the track to catch him......
So he immediately followed the company's manual to the Security Bureau,
"Dear Commissioner of the Security Bureau, if you have a business proposal, please make an appointment with our company during working hours, and our company will reply within three working days. For arrests and searches, please present legal documents authorized by the Security Committee. For mandatory interrogations, please provide a backup of the audio recording of the public security system. As an acting manager, I have the right to request the presence of the officers and above of the General Department of Justice and to appoint a lawyer to provide legal assistance to the company......"
The old man of the Security Bureau was not surprised by his reaction, put away his papers,
"No, I don't talk about business, but I ask Your Excellency for some personal issues, our conversation has no legal effect, you have the right to remain silent, and you can also use the system video."
“…… I remained silent and started to enable the security system for recording. ”
Li Pan is bitter in his heart, offending the Security Bureau to eliminate your number, offending the company to delete your file, these two thousand five hundred yuan are really hard to earn!
The old man was expressionless, and sent a video through an anonymous link.
"Do you still have an impression of this?"
Li Pan took a look, this is a surveillance video of the traffic system, the camera captured a group of thugs riding motorcycles, swaggering through the city. He took a closer look, then "Oh. "I have to react, this is really a private matter.
So he immediately turned off the recording function of the chip. Then he pointed to the cadet who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and tied his feet to the back of a locomotive, like a personal meat broom, and was dragged along the road.
"Yes, this is me."
The old man glanced at Li Pan,
"Why didn't you call the police?"
Damn, what age did you call the police. Lao Tzu almost wanted to laugh. And why are you turning this out so far?
"Forget."
The old man stared at him.
"Forgot?"
Seeing that the old man refused to give up, Li Pan scratched his head and thought about it before speaking,
"Tsk, what, this is the you're going to investigate?
Okay, I cooperate, I confess, I was studying at the Military Division Engineering College at the time, during which I applied for the candidate starship non-commissioned officer, the first in the written exam, several classmates, hehe, fellow countryman, invited me to drink to celebrate, and I was drunk by them carelessly, but I was cleaned up by these gangsters and dragged all the way to the suburbs and thrown in the garbage.
When I came back, of course I was late for the interview. In the end, the school also gave me the punishment of leaving school without permission, not returning home at night, fighting outside the school, untidy appearance, and contempt for the superiors, and placed on probation.
Alarm? Heh, man, military academy, there's a fart for calling the police? If I call the police, can I get my graduation certificate? Do you want citizenship?
Yes, I later settled accounts with these people, but the clue of the middleman was broken, of course, I guessed who hired the person, they originally wanted to buy my life, but unfortunately, it changed hands several times, and it was thousands of yuan in the hands of these little deflated people, and they didn't have the courage to kill for this money, so I escaped with my life, so I didn't kill them in the end, and forgave them after dragging it out as it was.
These are all in my file, this is before graduation, if the system thinks that I have violated the law and taboos, it is impossible to pass the citizen review, right? ”
Seeing that Li Pan didn't care, Lao Tzu had no handle, the old man was silent for a while,
"I see, I'm not investigating anything, I'm just here to attend Oso's funeral, and after seeing that you are an old man, I want to see if there is anything that can help you, since there is no trouble."
The other party sent an electronic business card. The business card is headed by Chen's Insurance Consulting Company, the manager is Chen Tan, Li Pan remembers that there is no such name in his family's address book, probably because of the fake identity of this security bureau agent doing a side business.
Hearing the other party's words, Li Pan was also a little surprised for a while,
"This ...... Uncle Chen, do you know Big Bear? Have you also been saved by my parents? In fact, they are medical soldiers, and it is their job to save people, okay, don't be so polite.
Why, do you want to help the younger generation vent their anger? Why don't we find a place to have a drink? ”
Chen Tan shook his head,
"Another day, there's a chance."
So he turned his head and walked away with a blank face.
Li Pan is also inexplicable.
What the hell is this old man Chen? Even if it's a comrade-in-arms, he can actually meet with the fake identity of the consulting company, right? Why is it necessary to display the signboard of the Security Service directly? And what does Li Pan have to do with him in the military academy?
For a while, Li Pan's heart was also a little up, after all, a department like the Security Bureau, legal citizens who have no power and no power will not deal with each other for a lifetime, and even Li Pan searched the Internet for a long time, and he was stunned that half of the enthusiastic netizens knew what the Third Investigation Department of the Public Security Bureau was doing, but he was warned by the search engine.
"Citizen Li Pan, what do you want to do to investigate the Security Bureau" is so straightforward......
Forget it, after all, the public network is right under people's noses, and this kind of thing will probably be checked by the deep network, so it's good to go back and ask Eighteen.
So Li Pan didn't think about it anymore, so he helped the pastor and them to liquidate, and after eating a little half-full, he swayed around, like a drunk, and returned to the apartment with his skills.
In fact, this Nine Yin Divine Skill can kill people and breathe, it is the same as the experience of fighting monsters in the game, Li Pan originally planned to brush up a few gangsters to upgrade, but he was contacted by Lao Chen of the Security Bureau, and he was afraid that he would be targeted by the system because of the big trouble in the past two days, and he didn't dare to go out to do things on this outlet for the time being.
So I honestly went back to the apartment to meditate, nothing happened all night, oh, it's not nothing, Huang Dahe and Shen came to him once in the middle of the night, which scared Li Pan, and thought it was the East Window incident, and this kid Xingshi asked for guilt.
As a result, he brought a black super dream, saying that it was a pre-death echo of cyber psychosis that attacked the central area of the capital a few days ago and killed hundreds of people.
Wow, Li Pan said that Lao Tzu has done a lot of work in the past two days, who wants this, not to mention that he really can't take out fifty yuan now......
was stinged by Huang Dahe's eyes of "I can't even take out fifty yuan, to be honest, you can't do it", Li Pan drove the kid away and entered the practice by himself.
I don't know if it's really thinking about it day and dreaming at night, Li Pan actually dreamed that he was eating.
And it is literally a mountain and sea delicacies, abalone and ginseng wings, all kinds of big fish and meat, dragon liver and phoenix gall, many varieties that have never been seen, like the mutant monsters of Resident Evil, some are steamed, some are freshly baked, and some are braised red, and they are packed in various bronze giants and ceramic dinner plates, piled up as high as a hill!
Obediently, for a while, Li Pan thought he was doing ...... Nonsense! Isn't that just a dream!
Since it was a dream, Li Pan was not welcome, he pounced on the table and feasted on it, eating meat, and felt that his life had never been so happy.
But the tragedy is that dreams are dreams after all, and after waking up, Li Pan actually felt that he was even hungrier, as if there was a grinding disc grinding his stomach. Seriously, if he continues like this, he won't have to wait until the loan repayment date to go bankrupt, and his life will be gone......
"Red bean puree intimate Marseille! The first official mission failed, and I bothered you to save you, and I embarrassed the company! Please punish me! ”
It was probably a day off and he was resurrected after taking medicine, and early in the morning, Kotaro sat down and apologized with full of energy.
And in the downstairs cafeteria, he was driven out by someone who had a full meal, and Li Pan had no energy to hold a morning meeting, and waved his hand.
"Don't take it as an example, take a task by yourself, go to the dungeon by the way, find out the stronghold of the Shura Society, make up for it, and I don't care about you if you are arrested again."
"Yes! Thank you for your magnanimity! Shame on you before it snows by all means! Never fail to live up to your expectations! ”
And then Rama. 18 reports,
"Not surprisingly, the virtual currency has dived in the past two days, but don't worry, it must be a technical adjustment, rest assured, I'm staring at the market, although it is stuck for a while, but it will always rise back. Don't rush, wait! ”
Seriously, you can't do it......
However, Li Pan's subordinates really don't have professional economic talents, and it is impossible for this kind of talent to get your basic salary of 2,500 yuan, which can only be used for eighteen or eight heads.
"Let's throw it away when it's unbundled."
Over there, Ah Qi also came to report with coffee,
"So far, the sheets haven't opened their mouths."
"Well, keep fighting, don't stop. Rama went out with me. ”
casually arranged something for the employees to do, and Li Pan himself went to the fax machine to flip through the task folder.
In fact, he also knew that this breakthrough from the second turn to the third turn was essentially because he swallowed a headband, so what kind of meditation, double cultivation, and killing people was still not as fast as directly fighting monsters to upgrade. Probably this is what the blue-robed strange man said, punish ghosts.
But he knows that the company's inventory can't be moved, and now he hasn't figured out how to explain to the company that the headband is missing. I had to practice with wild monsters.
