"Manager, the Demon Lord has lost contact."

Early in the morning, Ashiya Shiki came to report.

"He borrowed my Shikigami to infiltrate Edo Ward last night to investigate, but I sensed that Shikigami was destroyed, and others had not been heard from all day, and the entire city was under martial law."

"Well, I know...... Ahem, I mean Kotaro didn't fail to sneak in once or twice, just get used to it.

In this case, Ashiya-kun, you are in charge of the rescue, and you are allowed to use the 'Divination Ball', and if you need my help, just say. ”

"Okay manager."

Ashiya Shikiki took the order.

Li Pan sat behind the manager's desk, crossed his hands to support his face, and did not recover for the time being.

In short, it wasn't a dream last night, he gave an order, and the black ball 'slashed ghosts', thousands of miles away, and came back with people's heads......

Lay down in a groove...... He has no intention of thia...... Hi mouth ...... It's outrageous, isn't it...... And you cut people down, and what do you do when you wrap your head back???

So what now? Iga Ninja is so powerful, has Kotaro been caught? Could it be that he has already confessed?

it, Tokugawa Chihime's head was still hidden in the toilet tank of the apartment before it could be destroyed...... I can't tell you anymore......

"Ah...... What the hell is going on......"

Li Pan rubbed his face, oops, what a headache.

Literally a splitting headache.

After using the 'ghost killing', Li Pan simply felt that someone was holding an awl to chisel at the top of his head, bell, as if the 'ghost killing' was jumping in his head, making him dizzy, and seeing things was ghosted......

It's really convincing.,These monsters are powerful.,But now his level is too low.,Can't use it at all.,It's really chicken......

Jingle bell, and the phone rings again.

"This is the general manager of 0113."

"Oh, oh, 0113, how is my goods, it's still on time."

For the sake of 35 million, Li Panqiang cheered up to deal with it.

0113 said, "Very good, I want something, the task has been sent to the logistics department." But I heard you have collectors? ”

Li Pan, "Oh, don't worry, there are people sent by 01 who are in charge." ”

"01 sent someone?"

0113 was silent for a moment,

"0791, let's change the trading mode."

Li Pan was shocked, "What? At this time, you tell me to change?? Do you play me? ”

0113 tract,

"Don't be nervous, the content of the transaction between us will not change, but the internal process will change. As you know, usually the internal logistics of our subsidiaries is in the DAF mode, and the responsibility is transferred after passing the door.

But now that you have collectors in your plane, and you probably don't have many private fleets under your command, I don't worry about using third-party security for large goods this time, so I suggest changing it to FOB, and I will send a ship to Earth to pick it up, and I need your dispatch permission. ”

Li Pan also understood, roughly speaking, in the previous DAF model, the border delivery was based on the 'door' as the dividing line, and the accident on which side of the plane was counted on which side.

Now it is the delivery to the ship, that is, 0113 sent the ship through the door, and the people from the logistics department traveled to cross over, link the prosthesis, board the ship at the base of the Callisto company, and then drive to the earth to pick up the goods, and follow the goods throughout the process.

Of course, in the FOB mode, these astronauts don't need to descend to the earth, they are delivered in the near-Earth annular spaceport, and some powerful combat prosthetics can be selected for security, and the transport ship is of course also specially modified by 0113 for 'Tai Sui', which can be said to be very careful.

In fact, from the asteroid to the celestial domain of the Calisto Star Gate, the 0791 local company fleet will also provide escort, but on the way from the asteroid to the earth, there are only customs patrols and starfleets, and this time 0113 is probably worried that the collector will send a fleet to intercept it, so he will simply charter a ship to pick up the goods.

As soon as this transaction model is changed, the responsibility will be transferred to the 0113 side when the goods are delivered. Li Pan himself saved a lot of things, of course, he agreed.

This task came just in time, Li Pan caused a lot of trouble, and he didn't want to stay in the night capital for a long time, so he immediately took this opportunity to get out, and arranged for Ah Qi to stay behind and deal with the customs clearance documents of 'Tai Sui', personally go to Saitoya to pick up the goods, soak in the hot springs by the way, and find the proprietress to massage with essential oil to relieve mental pressure.

But who knew that as soon as the floating car left the city, Li Pan saw that outside the moat of the night capital, on the deserted plain, there were rows and rows of armored army groups, all kinds of combat vehicles, drones, and SMS, all of which had the Tokugawa family's Mitsuha Aoi, probably a corps transferred back from the front.

The slums that were originally entrenched on the outskirts of the Night City, eager to go to the city to work, were demolished and demolished, and the fields were cleared like cockroaches and rats, and overnight they were replaced by military fortifications that rose from the ground.

The Tokugawa Army's self-propelled Vulcan cannons, mobile barracks, military fortresses, barracks ammunition depots, and all kinds of transport vehicles and transport ships landed in the demarcated areas one after another under the guidance of engineers, and built steel military cities on the spot.

Although these are only armies with little technical content, the night knights can't kill so many even if they are a thousand fears.

As a result, the troops under the command of the Yashi clan could only retreat on the city wall, facing Tokugawa's army across the battery moat, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Li Pan is too, and the mental pressure comes up all of a sudden.

Obediently, didn't you just cut off your daughter's head, is it necessary to make such a big fuss? Why are you going to slaughter the city?

Fortunately, the two sides maintained restraint and did not exchange fire for the time being, and no one went to lock the floating cars of other universe companies to the death, so Li Pan, the culprit, swaggered through the front of the two armies and went to the hot springs.

What Li Pan didn't expect was that the Tokugawa family would pull the army back to the night capital to show their strength. But Saito Onsen is overcrowded at this time!

The tarmac was full of floating cars of the Tokugawa family, surrounded by SBS heavy guards and Iga ninjas, SMS carried anti-aircraft and anti-space electronic warfare equipment to build positions, and a large number of spider drones, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry guard, there were troops everywhere, and after entering the airspace, even the floating vehicles with company license plates were escorted by two fighters of the Tokugawa Air Force, and were targeted and guided by a bunch of laser cannons.

Li Pan also scolded secretly, and he would have called Keiko if he knew it, this is Hakone Mountain, isn't it for the Tokugawa Army who returned to the division, and requisitioned it into the base camp headquarters.

It's just that Li Pan's formal clothes have been taken to make up, and he hasn't had time to update his prosthetic body after tossing for a long time, and he hasn't changed his bulletproof inserts, and the only ones he can rely on are the two monsters of 'handkerchief' and 'iron gun', and there are only three keys left.

If there is a fight, I can only try to transform into a handkerchief and escape all the way. However, this kind of army-level central command module must have an automatic defense module used to defend against the space force's low-earth orbit sudden landing.

Not to mention those railgun laser cannons, just the kind of hypersonic interceptor missile on the side of the road, the warhead can reach Mach 27 in three seconds, and the whole process is locked and tracked and maneuvers at high speed, it is estimated that even if he transforms, he will be beaten like scum if he can't escape from the foot of Mount Hakone......

Fortunately, the other party did not shoot down Li Pan's ship directly, but only sent a few spiders to lock on and control the spaceship. And Saitoya also arranged for a robot maid to pick up people.

So Li Pan also endured a headache and went out of the cabin, looking at so many guards, the sword, gun, and cone given by K, it is estimated that he can't bring it in, in order to avoid losing it, he simply put it in the car, only with a handkerchief iron ball, and followed the maid into the hot spring village.

Sure enough, there were drones, guards, and ninjas observing and scanning him along the way, but the other party's radar naturally couldn't scan the monsters, and Li Pan didn't pretend to be those outrageous combat prosthetics, so he entered the hotel smoothly.

He was greeted not only by Keiko Saito, but also by a cadre of the Tokugawa family.

"Manager Li, thank you for coming to meet with me, this is the president of Okubo Mining Development and Metals Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Takamahara Minerals Group."

"Okubo Jubei, please advise."

The middle-aged cadres who exuded the smell of the company's dog bowed to Li Pan.

"It turned out to be President Okubo, and I have admired the daimyo for a long time."

"It is my honor for Manager Li to attend the meeting alone, and the amount is impressive."

Li Pan shook hands with the other party and exchanged business cards, although the directors of the chaebol bosses lived in a simple place, but this Okubo Shibei he often saw in various financial news, this person often represents the Okubo Group and Takamagahara, attends various summits and forums, and is a professional manager.

And this Ten Guards is also quite famous in the circle of company dogs in the Night City, because his growth path is quite inspirational and positive.

First of all, he was born as a commoner, not a traditional samurai, his family moved from the countryside to the Night Capital, and his education was average, not that kind of elite.

After joining the company, he repeatedly went through bankruptcy and reorganization, and later his company was merged into Tokugawa, and he was promoted step by step with outstanding performance through personal struggle.

Then he was first taken by the Okubo family, adopted as an adopted son and served as the general manager, and then he was appreciated by the Tokugawa family, and he actually married a second-married princess of the Tokugawa family! Step into the last seat of the board of directors!

It can be said that this guy is the standard indomitable, hard-working, and finally promoted and raised, became the general manager, became the CEO, married Bai Fumei, and walked to the pinnacle of life.

The Tokugawa family also often publicized his personal deeds, beating the company dogs under his command, and incidentally expressing that Maxima is often there and Bole is not, and the Tokugawa family has the name of knowing people, and talented people from all over the world come to the Tokugawa family to show their ambitions.

Of course, there are similar characters on the side of the Yuchai family, called Ishida or something, but in essence, no matter how infighting Gao Tianyuan is, the essence of property and power is still changing hands within the samurai family, but it is just accepting a few elite people as sons-in-law, acting as if there is still an upward channel, fooling the people below, you understand.

But bluffing is bluffing, Okubo Shibei is a very capable person, Li Pan was still cleaning the toilet in the military academy when he debuted in the night capital, of course, he didn't dare to slack off, and he dealt with it with 100,000 points of spirit, but fortunately, Keiko Saito was also on the side, and personally arranged a kiosk for the two of them to have lunch talks, while secretly sending some private messages to Li Pan to point out the background.

Originally, Tokugawa and Hashiba negotiated peace, and the army returned to the division one after another, but now the main force has basically withdrawn to the vicinity of the night capital, and Hakoneyama was requisitioned here as the headquarters of the group army.

In view of the unstable law and order in the night capital, the army is now assembled, so many senior executives and cadres of Tokugawa have directly stayed in villas and hotels in the hot spring village.

Even Keiko Saito hinted that even the head of the Tokugawa family had made a brief appearance, of course, now that Tokugawa's private garrison had completely taken over the defense of the hot spring village, she had also been demoted to a senior maid who helped serve tea and water, and the information she could get was limited, and now it is not clear who is in charge.

And it's a coincidence, it turned out that she called the company to make an appointment yesterday, that is, by the instructions of the Tokugawa family, asked to meet with the representatives of the monster company, Li Pan didn't figure it out, and came to the hot spring by mistake, but it was really a blind cat that touched a dead mouse, and let the army and guards go all the way and entered the base camp defense circle.

But since you're here, let's talk, isn't being the general manager just a whole day this meeting, that meeting, it's not easy to get two thousand five a month.

So this time, Okubo Shibei came forward on behalf of the Tokugawa family and chatted with Li Pan while eating.

Everyone talked very politely, very politely, very restrained, and very professional, but the meaning of the people was also very clear, after all, the meaning of the Tokugawa family was completely notice, and there was almost no room for negotiation, and Okubo did not have much room for operation, so he could only use business words to express the meaning of the head of the Tokugawa family euphemistically.

After all, now that the internal problems of Takamagahara have been solved, the Tokugawa family has free their hands, so it is natural to have a good chat with unstable elements like Li Pan and settle the general account.

Isn't the strong dragon still suppressing the head snake of the earth, no matter what Gao Tianyuan says, he is also a force that dares to start a war with the heavens, although he is afraid of the great loss of strength now, but he can't give much face to a branch manager.

The Holy Grail procurement war is not once or twice, and the general manager who died in the hands of Takamahara is not one or two, not to mention that people don't know that the Oda family is for your monster company, so of course you have soldiers in your hands, highlighting an ignorant person who is fearless, and shouting the price is not worth it at all.

The gist of it is that recently your monster company has jumped higher than anyone else in the night capital, killing my Tokugawa people everywhere, raiding my Tokugawa's home, and beating my Tokugawa's dog, I can't bear it.

I heard that Your Excellency has recently been obsessed with being a bounty hunter and cutting the people of the Dongcheng Society as leeks, right? Although those people are not worth mentioning, it is not easy to raise, and you have taken away 500 yuan and 1,000 yuan as scrap, isn't it a bit too much?

And the place of Saitoya is the place of the immortal spring, but the directors of Takamagahara specialize in the private welfare of the elderly, and everyone is not dead, so you are guilty of capital injection and merger?

Not to mention that Jinyao Academy and Sky City were also mixed up by you and the Security Bureau, making a mess, right?

My Tokugawa family is also half the master of the night capital, can the master let the foreign guests mess around like this? That's not hospitality!

So the Tokugawa family demanded,

The contract signed between the monster company and Saitoya should be considered canceled, and this place is the private domain of the Tokugawa family, and it is not intended to be sold.

These days, Toshiro will suffer heavy losses, and it was supposed to see blood, but President Tojo gave face, as long as the monster company compensated 100 million for mental damages and apologized in person, the Tokugawa family could pull the strings and arrange for the two sides to sit down and reconcile.

If you don't agree, then Takamagahara is already in harmony anyway, and the army is pulled back, so let's continue to fight.

So this meal Li Pan ate like chewing wax, and his brain was still sloppy, and he was extremely uncomfortable. I had to control my facial expressions and deal with a cunning guy like Okubo, while patiently listening to the condescending nonsense of the Tokugawa family.

But after listening to it for a while, he also heard it, it seems that the Tokugawa family, or at least Okubo Jubei, still don't know that Princess Chihime's head has been cut off and stuffed in the toilet.

And the Iga ninjas who listened to the corners around them were just ambushing in the muddy ground of the ceiling tatami bamboo forest pond, and they had no intention of assassinating.

Then the other party should just find out that Panlong Construction has a close relationship with the Night Clan and the Security Bureau, and he doesn't know that he is the hottest one on the Internet, the 'masked monster' who almost knocked down Dongcheng.

It shouldn't be known that Li Pan killed the cubs of the Liu Sheng family, and also pried them with a large number of arms, and the opening was 100 million, probably just out of professional habits......

Li Pan also heard enough, so he politely said,

"The Tokugawa family's intention has been received, so please let me report it to the above and reply to you in a few days."

Okubo also bowed,

"This is naturally understood, everyone works for the company, if you can get along well, why use knives and guns.

Originally, I wanted to ask the manager to stay for dinner, but due to the recent busy affairs, the hot spring village is not open to the public, so I will not keep you, and the old man will send you off. ”

Li Pan politely excused himself and gave in, and almost said that he would let me and the proprietress have a private shot before leaving, but unfortunately in the end I couldn't match the other party's words, and was escorted by the guards, please go back to the parking lot.

Well, it's a bit of a hassle now......

As soon as the Tokugawa family army arrived, Keiko Saito didn't care about anything, and I don't know if 'Tai Sui' is still in the warehouse.

Li Pan observed the defense of Hot Spring Village left and right, and roughly estimated that the troops stationed in Hakone alone now had at least the size of a division of the first division, and if they wanted to break through the defensive circle to grab goods, even if they had elite assault troops of the level of the Martian Marine Corps in their hands, they would have to send a special operations composite battalion to do so.

But the problem is, theoretically now that Takamagahara's infighting is over, and now this is no longer 'Tokugawa's private army', but 'Takamagahara's direct troops', if you break in, it will be equivalent to a war with Takamagahara, and once it is discovered, it will definitely not be able to mix up in 0791.

But the 'Tai Sui' is collected here, without the 'Tai Sui' there would be no 35 million, without 35 million there would be no 'Night Capital Development Fund', and Panlong Construction would be a pure debt.

Ouch, it hurts, my head hurts......

Li Pan can't help it for a while, now he is in poor condition, he is not fully equipped, and there is a company of Iga ninjas following in the dark when he walks around, Li Pan doesn't know how capable these ninjas are, but Kotaro and Kiriko were fucked to death, and they are estimated to be very awesome, so they have to go back and get ready first and then think of a way.

In order to avoid missing any plots again, on the way back, Li Pan sent two more text messages, asking the other two friends what was going on with him.

Fortunately, there is nothing serious, Masako Akiyama asked him when he would go to the gym to take classes, and the private training service fee is 10 million, and he can customize his clothes.

Emilia directly asked him to shoot again, cough cough, and have another drink together, of course, the main thing is to drink her, Li Pan can play whatever tricks he wants.

Gan, either greedy for his body or greedy for his money...... It's a pity that my head hurts so much now, and my state is not good......

Li Pan was about to make another appointment with the two of them, when Orange Communication also called.

Alas, the secretary also begs for work, right, it's really busy to be a successful man.

"Lee, didn't you lock the door last night? The apartment was burglarized, the door was pried open, the windows were smashed, and the wardrobe was turned over. ”

"What!"

Li Pan was shocked, I did such a petty theft! Is Dongcheng going to do it!

"Go to the toilet and look at the toilet! No, look at the tank! ”

Orange doubts,

"Nothing? What, did you hide any contraband? ”

"No!? Hiss...... That, that's fine...... Orange, don't call the police, I'll pay for the repair myself, it's not been peaceful recently, you can go to the factory to live for the time being. By the way, the car will also be remodeled and replaced with bulletproof armor. ”

"I'll check the monitoring again. Maybe it's just a burglary. Today, the streets are full of three-headed dogs and NCPA, and the security in the night capital is getting worse and worse......"

At the end of the communication, Li Pan only felt dizzy for a moment, his head was buzzing, and he could clearly see the ball of 'Killing Ghosts' jumping on his brain.

Bell, bell, bell......

Ah, a headache......
