Originally, Li Pan planned to sit with Angela for a while, and then leave when she eased up.

But who knew that Angela became more and more energetic the more she cried, as if Li Pan secretly did this with her spiritual ability, and she was broken, and the floodgates were opened, and the feelings that had been shocked, bullied, fooled, frightened, and suppressed in the past few days were all poured out! There is no stop at all!

Seeing Angela's dead and alive appearance, she was about to faint from crying, and Li Pan was also speechless for a while.

Roar, this little girl was crushed by the cruel social reality, collapsed, and desperate...... But it could also be psionic......

No, you have to say that this family is poor in the ninth world, how many scum scum have come out, how can they finally mutate genes and jump out of such a virgin? Is this normal or abnormal?

Ahem, okay, it's not that Li Pan is cold-blooded, it's mainly because you want to live in the night capital, you can have compassion, but it really can't be too strong.

How tiring would it be to live otherwise......

The misery of this world is like eighteen layers of hell, it is endless! Who do you think you can empathize with the suffering of the whole world? Also crispy??

What's more, in the security environment of the Night City, it would be biased to say that the Reagan family is the culprit, but it is appropriate to say that they turned a deaf ear and even contributed to the troubles, right?

So to put it bluntly, when this bottom was beaten by Les Miserables, I didn't see you do any good deeds, and you only howled here when you died, howling is a fart? Who are you crying for?

And in fact, as far as Li Pan came into contact, those upper-level rulers, whether they were giant crocodiles or eagle dogs, actually had few really tyrannical killing, or were born with diseases.

In terms of the definition of "good guy" and "bad guy", it may have been at the bottom for a long time, but it is more ruthless and cold-blooded, and a little more selfish. On the contrary, the upper echelons can engage in these families, marriages, mutual benefit and win-win, hand in hand, social circles, and the power of connections.

After all, they have resources to exchange. There's a fart at the bottom? You really can't afford a gun, okay?

So those who have money, who have escaped from the sea of suffering, and don't have to go to work to pay off the mortgage, grovel and suffer a belly of resentment, just lie in the million-square-meter mansion and watch the damn money on the account go up. The car, gun, ball, mecha and titan are tired of playing, and they can directly customize the script to reincarnate in the other world, and when they are in trouble, they also have friends in the circle to help settle it, isn't Emma not too mentally healthy!

So if you really want them to set people on fire with their own hands, and watch them wail to death in the hellfire, these people will certainly not have that guts. But you have to get him to sign the authorization to be corrected, or give a button, press a million people for a million dollars, and he can snap it for you.

Selfish, always only caring about themselves.

Those who care about it can't wait to pluck the stars in the sky and send them to her, and I don't know Lao Tzu who cares about you struggling in the sea of bitterness and hell.

It doesn't matter what level of technology you have, it's human nature to be born, it's always been like this, and it's always been like this.

The sooner you realize that everyone in this world is a damn bastard except yourself, the easier it will be to live.

So Angela was crying there, and Li Pan was watching from the side, just thinking that she was in the throes of an adult, and she was so intimate that she handed over the handkerchief.

"Would you like to wipe it? Snot spurted out. ”

Oh roar, the result is terrible, like a drowning man grabbing driftwood, Angela threw herself into Li Pan's arms, like a koala, wiping tears and snot on his suit.

Seeing that she was still energetic, Li Pan was also a little annoyed, and she was afraid that her father would misunderstand, so she had to rack her brains to think about it and persuade,

"But speaking of which, I used to work at the junkyard and met a friend whose name was ...... His name is ...... Forget it, I don't remember......

In short, the goods were originally a social animal, working overtime every day, and suddenly one day when I came home, I found that the neighbor had connected the gas pipeline privately, and it exploded, and his own house was also set on fire.

Every day from then on, as soon as it got dark, he squatted in the house with his head in his hands and cried. So I'll have to do the night shift alone, but I can also sneak around and make some extra money. ”

Angela snorted and looked at him in disbelief,

"Woo, you, woo...... What do you mean by talking to me about this? ”

Li Pan shrugged,

"Oh, don't you just think they're miserable? I'll tell you something worse. He didn't even do anything wrong, and there was one more dog in the family, isn't it miserable? Are you feeling better? ”

Angela, "??? ”

Li Pan scratched his head,

"Oh, I want to open a little, what joy is life, and what is the pain of death.

At least that fourteen-year-old thug was saved by you, didn't you? If you don't intervene, you're going to burn five people, aren't you?

You feel like what you're doing is useless. But you, a patrol officer, did save a life, didn't you?

If you are a police officer like your brother and can issue a certificate of relief on the spot, then maybe his family can move to a better community, and all four of them can survive.

And if one day you can become a police superintendent, stabilize social order, and clean up all the gangs on the streets, then 14-year-olds and 9-year-olds will not have to live in a world where they can only find guns by themselves when they encounter problems. ”

Angela wiped her nose with a handkerchief, as if she didn't understand much for a while.

Li Pan pointed to the room full of people behind him,

"In fact, there are not so many powerful guys in the circle of the night capital, although the company is garbage, but people are also forced, and they are generally too lazy to participate in street things. I've been to other worlds, and they're actually okay with law and order, it's just poor.

Therefore, with your family's resources and connections, maintaining law and order is simply a trivial matter.

It's just that they prefer to invest these resources in profitable places, such as exchanging stars on epaulettes, rather than doing their jobs.

So if you really can't stand it, then resign. But if you're sincere, then I'd rather be the one who keeps the law and order than hand over the Night City to those Regans.

Don't be reluctant, within the scope of authority, you can help a few people, just do your best. ”

Li Pan patted Angela's shoulder and pressed a blood urn on her shoulder to protect her.

Angela's mood gradually stabilized, and then she saw the stains on Li Pan's body, and realized that she had lost her temper just now, and her ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Li Pan saw that she seemed to be fine, and estimated that the effect of the spiritual energy had passed, so he also took out the handkerchief and stood up.

Angela squirmed,

"Wait, wait...... That one...... The handkerchief is dirty, I'll wash it for you......"

"It's okay, I don't mind. Oh, your sister they're back, I'm going to say hello too. ”

Anyway, does the handkerchief have the ability to remove dirt, and Li Pan has been wiping the minced meat stuck to his body with it......

made a cameo appearance as a psychiatrist and confidant giegie, and Li Pan didn't waste any time, so he hurried back to the main hall to do business.

According to the standards of the system, the pair of Erin Reagan and Ito Ryoma can be regarded as talented and beautiful, and they are the right match, and they envy others. If you have the power of power, family, company and connections, you will inevitably have a bright future and a bright career. Maybe both of them will have the opportunity to reach the bureau level in the future.

Although that's just the same thing in front of the company dog......

But Li Pan didn't expect that he would return to the main hall. Rod brought Takamori Ito over.

"Manager Li, I'm here to introduce you, Director Ito."

Yo, this shaking mayor is also quite eye-catching? Obviously, he has already communicated with Takamori Ito, and he also knows who Li Pan is.

At this time, his face was pale, his forehead was full of cold sweat, obviously knowing that now if he didn't do it well, he would turn red into white, and he couldn't laugh at all.

"Lee, Lee...... Manger...... Contemptible, contemptible...... Ito......"

Li Pan looked at him with a smile.

Paul didn't know about the broom heads, but when he saw that the expressions of the two men were wrong, he immediately ran away.

"You guys talk slowly, I'll go say hello to my friends first."

Li Pan looked at Ito Takamori's outstretched hand, but he was not in a hurry to shake it, and asked Lehehe,

"Director Ito, how much did you spend on the beginning? That's right, just the time when the exam brushed me off, it won't be a penny spent without a penny, and an acquaintance will arrange it after a few words, right? ”

Takamori Ito gritted his teeth, not knowing whether it was anger or fear, he froze for a while, and said slowly,

"Four...... 42,000 ......"

Li Pan raised his eyebrows,

"Forty-two thousand? The position of a security bureau is only 42,000 yuan for stepping on a horse?? ”

Takamori Ito is also out of the way,

"Ryoma himself finished second, only a little worse than you, so it doesn't take too much trouble......

I invited the head of the house to have a meal with them, and asked them to turn a blind eye for 40,000 yuan, and found a few thugs, and spent 2,000 ......."

Hey, wow, 42,000 yuan, some people's lives are reversed, it's really worth the money......

Li Pan rolled his eyes,

"Oh, so how are you going to fix this? Money? ”

Takamori Ito hurriedly bowed,

"Please command, as long as you can compensate for your losses......"

Li Pan smiled,

"Loss, hehe, I really have to thank you, that's okay, I'm not an unreasonable person, you can't afford to give too much, just 42 million."

Takamori Ito gasped, and everyone froze.

Li Pan spat into the palm of his hand, activated the talisman in his palm, and stretched out his hand to him,

"Oh, this little thing, 42 million, I don't think it happened.

Oh, this quote is valid for this week, and I'll calculate the interest from next week. ”

Takamori Ito gritted his teeth and held Li Pan's hand,

"Thank you for your magnanimity! Thank you very much! ”

The Ito family seems to be really capable, they first transferred more than 10 million yuan, and then went to the banquet to take a turn, mobilized the power of connections, borrowed some here and there, pieced together, and quickly paid off 42 million.

Well, that's all there is to it.

Let's start thinking about the whisperers.

So when the banquet was over, Li Pan took the RS prosthetic body in custody and took the supercar directly to the No. 20 warehouse to get the juicer, fortunately the monster was not lost, but it saved a lot of work.

Then he used the Yuan Shen to control the blood god son, went out of the body directly, turned into a blood shadow, and followed Ito Takamori closely, like a shadow, planning to return to the house with Ito and his son, and let the family reunite.

As a result, the father and son did not go home, but took a car to Baofeng Building.

Yes, go see Reika Yamada.

"Forty-two million? He only needs 42 million to let you go? ”

Reika Yamada was wearing a silk bathrobe and a mask on her face, and she was lying on the sofa with her bare legs crossed.

"That guy just got the milestone of 100 billion, and now that the spice war is fighting, 42 million is not enough for a better prosthetic, hmph, I think you are dead."

Ito and his son were stunned for a while, and they didn't know if they were stunned by the death sentence, or if the number of 100 billion was really beyond their cognitive range, and they didn't react for a while.

Reika Yamada crossed her legs and pondered for a while,

"It's okay, he took your money, and he had to pretend for at least two days, so he shouldn't be so quick to attack you.

Then let's do it tonight. ”

Ito Ryoma was stunned for a moment, and his gaze returned to her face from Reika Yamada's chest,

"Tonight? It's midnight in a minute......"

"You've already got your license and registered your legal husband and wife in the system, right, that's fine."

Reika Yamada is lazy and cares about the orchid fingers, adjusting the color of the nails through the system,

"It's just tonight, you go back to the bureau now, wait for my arrangement, kill all the Reagan family, and leave your fiancée as the sole heir, and transfer the Reagan family's inheritance to your husband and wife's name. As per our agreement, I will only take one thing. ”

Takamori Ito swallowed,

"But, but the mad dog......"

Reika Yamada put away her nails and supported her cheeks,

"Why don't you arrange for you to fake your death and reincarnate?"

"What!"

Takamori Ito's face was flushed for a while,

"It's not what we said it would be! Didn't you say that you would help us deal with him when it was done! ”

Reika Yamada shrugged,

"Then who knew that he was so powerful now, and he could live so long, I regretted it. Why, do you have to repent too? ”

"You, you!"

Takamori Ito was stunned.

Ito Ryoma knelt on the ground, and a dirt seat slammed his face on the carpet,

"Please spare our lives! Do-card! ”

Takamori Ito quickly knelt down as well,

"Miss Yamada! It's all my fault! Please be magnanimous! Show us a way to live! ”

Reika Yamada was expressionless,

"Do the things I arranged well, I'm in a good mood, maybe I should consider it."

Ito's father and son saw that they had no choice at all, their faces were full of ashes, and they had to retreat as if they were mourning.

After sending away Ito and his son, Reika Yamada stretched, unbuttoned her yukata, and walked lazily into the bathroom.

Suddenly, she felt as if something was wrong, so Reika Yamada stopped in front of the bath, took two steps back, and turned her head to look at the vanity mirror.

In the mirror, the skinned bloody man was also looking back at her.

"Ahhh

Reika Yamada screamed and opened her eyes, and then she found herself sitting in the hotel's large bathtub, the warm pool water lapping against her skin.

"Whew...... Call...... Is it a dream? Are you so tired......"

Reika Yamada gasped and splashed the pool water on her face.

Then she found that the water in the pool today was extremely viscous and smelly, as if it was ......

Blood......

She opened her eyes, looked at the red of the pool, and slowly raised her head.

A skinned bloody man sat across from her.

For a moment, forgetting to even breathe, Reika Yamada was stunned, looking at the bloody humanoid body and the dark and empty eye socket opposite.

"So, you guys, what are you looking for?"

The bloody man raised his right hand from under the water, raised his index finger, and drew a circle towards Reika Yamada.

Then Reika Yamada saw her mask, no, her own skin, and flew into the air, covering the bloody man's face, turning into her own face.

Reika Yamada wanted to scream loudly, but she couldn't move, and only heard the sound of her teeth chattering.

AND THE 'REIKA' ON THE OTHER SIDE, WITH THE CORNERS OF HER MOUTH CURLED UP, BLOOD SPILLING FROM HER MOUTH AND NOSE, GAVE HER A BRIGHT RED SMILE.

"What the hell is in the hands of the Reagan family?"

So Reika Yamada opened her mouth to 'herself',

"It's not a thing, it's a person, it's Tomoko Akagi, the actual person in charge of the 'Whisperer' project, or rather, an uploaded intelligence, personality UI based on her brain scan.

At the end of the war, before committing suicide, Tomoko Akagi destroyed all the research results of her own research, and then compiled a destructive scan of her personality and memory into an upload UI, which was encrypted and loaded into the 'Mikodoshi' program prepared by Takamagahara for Oda Kamisuke.

All the details of the 'Whisperer' were in her head. If you want to get the full picture of the 'Whisperer' project, you must resurrect Tomoko Akagi's UI, and if you want to unlock the decoded and reconstruct UI, you must get the complete 'Mikoshi'. ”

The 'REIK' on the opposite side was silent for a while,

"How many 'mikoshi' are there? Where is it? The Reagan family has it in their hands? ”

Reika Yamada replied,

"After the 'Mikoshi' project was shelved, it was divided into three pieces by Takamagahara.

One piece is kept by the Oda family, and the other is in the hands of Tomoko Akagi's husband, the head of the security bureau, Gendo Akagi.

There is also a piece that was once captured by the Yakshas, but now it is almost certain that it was secretly hidden by the Reagan family. ”

'REIK' frowned,

"The committee doesn't know about this? Can't even get a piece? ”

Reika Yamada,

"Of course they know everything. And it's already been in hand.

Akagi Gendo, he took the initiative to join the committee long before the war, and cooperated with the SEC as a double agent. The position of director was exchanged for the information of the 'Divine Opinion' and 'Whisperer' projects.

Now, the SEC has reconstructed part of Tomoko Akagi's personality and memories through the latest UI technology. There is already a considerable level of knowledge about the 'Whisperer' project.

It's just that in the final analysis, this is just a marginal technology project carried out by a second-tier company like Gao Tianyuan, and the research progress is still quite shallow, and there is nothing valuable that is worth investing in mass production.

Therefore, for the SEC, it is not possible to mobilize the public for the time being. When there are real research results, it is the same to grab them. ”

'REIKA' laughed,

"Oh, then, why does the sage now move the people to raid the house? Have you achieved results? Or is it ...... You've got other 'shrines'? ”

Reika Yamada nodded,

"Yes, Sage Corporation is one of the participants in the SEC project, assisting in the analysis of the Security Agency's 'Mikoshi' and the reconstruction of Tomoko Akagi's UI.

Recently, we have also obtained the Oda family's 'mikoshi' through the local Akatengu, and we have obtained a lot of information. Now all that's left is the Reagan family, and the whole puzzle can be completed.

Even if the puzzle is not finished, the current information is enough to peek into the overall situation, make judgments and actions. ”

'REIKA' nodded,

"So you judge by ......"

Reika Yamada replied,

"We found out that the manager of TheM, Li Pan, is the 'whisperer' who has definitely awakened, and he has passed the late stage and entered an unprecedented field.

The value and competence he has now demonstrated is well worth investing in the Whisperer project." ”

'REIKA' frowned,

"Late?"

Reika Yamada nodded,

"Yes, the perfect adaptability to artificial bionic prosthetics and various monster props that Li Pan has shown now is one of the typical characteristics of the 'Whisperer' in the late stage.

In the early stage, it is the stage of auditory and visual hallucinations, the reception of information from other worlds.

The middle stage is amnesia, sleepwalking, schizophrenia, and the subconscious mind tries to make sense of the huge amount of information obtained, the information processing stage.

The vast majority of whisperers will collapse and become unusable in the middle of the game.

However, if you can survive to the final stage, the late stage of 'whispering', you will understand, analyze, grasp and use the 'knowledge you hear'.

But at this stage, the 'whisperer' itself will completely lose itself and become a different person......"

'REIKA' cocks up index finger,

"Another person?"

Reika Yamada replied,

"Yes, according to the experimental data of TheM......"

'REIKA' INTERRUPTED HER AGAIN,

"Wait, Monsters, Inc?"

Reika Yamada nodded,

"Yes, TheM Monster Company and Takamagahara, on the 'Whisperer' project for a long time, have been working together on research and sharing trial data, and it seems that the original 'Whisperer' is some kind of out-of-control monster sub-project of TheM.

Before the war, Takamagahara had been sending the 'Whisperer' test subjects as 'temporary workers' to TheM's Callisto base for secret experiments.

TheM has discovered that the 'whisperer' has a strong ability to 'copy'. Not only can you learn the 'knowledge of monsters', but you can also perfectly use the 'power of monsters', and even the 'memories of monsters' can be copied.

In other words, they can directly touch the bridge of the 'monster' and touch the existence of another world behind the 'monster'.

And to take its mind, its will, the rules it represents, are perfectly copied, and are the vessels of the most perfect advent.

It's like a mirror, it has to receive that information completely, and the feedback is projected as it is.

The soul of the monster is reflected.

Therefore, 'Whisperer' has always been the 'temporary worker' that TheM has been the main developer of.

However, the term of use of 'Whisperer Part-time Workers' is extremely short.

As human beings, their own will is too small compared to those beings, and given the limitations of their mental and physical abilities, the more information they receive, the more their former selves, as the 'id', are erased, the more they come into contact with them, the more distorted they become.

So gradually, little by little, they will lose themselves and become a clone, a container, a human 'monster'.

Generally, three to nine months after the first contact with a monster, it will be completely monstrous, swallowed by the will of another world, and the individual's personality will completely collapse and cease to exist.

If we want to compete with TheM in the monster market, then a whisperer temporary worker like Li Pan will be an indispensable and important part of our collector alliance......"

Jingle bells

'REIKA' SUDDENLY RAISED HIS HAND TO INTERRUPT HER,

"That's it for now."

So Reika Yamada slowly sank into the pool of blood.

REIKA TORE OFF THE SKIN OFF HIS FACE, THREW IT INTO THE WATER, GOT UP FROM THE BATH, OPENED THE DOOR AND WALKED OUT.

The Faceling, dressed in a formal suit with a handkerchief over his face, turned his head to look at the door behind him.

'Removing defilement'

Then he looked at the desk again.

Jingle bells

No, it's not a landline, the sound is coming from the upper floors.

So he tore it again, and tore off the handkerchief that covered his face.

Then Li Pan opened his eyes.

In front of it were the shelves of warehouse twenty, and on the ground were freshly used juicers.

Yes, he drank Reika Yamada.

But this kind of thing, it doesn't matter.

Three to nine months......

So

The cashing of the acceptance bill is nine months.

The part-time internship is also nine months.

Because of Lao Tzu's rotten life, according to the company's statistics, there are nine months at most.

Made......

So the company treated him like a monkey from beginning to end......

Jingle bells

Li Pan wiped the blood off his mouth and connected to the communication call of Eighteen.

"Crooked, eighteen? Why? ”

Eighteen, "Boss, your girlfriend said that you don't answer the communication, so leave a message to the front desk of the company to find you." ”

Li Pan frowned, "My girlfriend? Who? Luxuriant? ”

Eighteen, "Huh? Who is Vi? Isn't that the knight chief of the Night Clan? Miss K? ”

Oh, K......

Who is K......
