Night City Municipal Building.

Mayor Lucius Lane got out of his exclusive float car, making it completely unrecognizable that he had just taken a trip to Santo Domingo.

He got out of the car, and as soon as he entered the building, he saw Bryce, who was being monitored by the Internet, standing in the hallway-

This agent was originally just a covert agent in charge of the Black Wall business in Night City, but recently he has been in contact with a group of mercenaries, so he has naturally been assigned more tasks.

On the one hand, Ryan needs his experience in contact with those mercenaries, and on the other hand, Bryce's multiple contacts with mercenaries have completely reduced the secrecy of his identity, and there is no need to continue to act covertly.

It is only known that Ryan sponsored cyber surveillance and established the Cyber Security Foundation, but it can be seen from this scene that in Night City, he has a better relationship with cyber surveillance than the outside world thinks.

At least that's the case in Night City.

"To be honest, I have quite mixed feelings about them, and sometimes I think Night City should have such a spiritual business card, but seeing them reminds me of the nuclear bomb more than 50 years ago."

Ryan lit a cigar and walked past Bryce as he spoke, who followed.

"At least so far, the psychological assessment of them by online surveillance is still in a safe range."

"You don't understand, this kind of person's behavior is unpredictable."

Ryan took a hard puff on his cigar and behaved like a mob at times, not like a mayor.

Bryce immediately replied: "That's because network surveillance uses too few observation methods, more observation equipment, more data, more accurate prediction and control." ”

"Come on, what will people say about me if I let you fire all the fire?"

Within a few steps, Ryan had finished the cigar he had just ordered, and thousands of euros were burned.

He reached for the cigarette butt and tossed it into the bin in front of the elevator, just in time to see the end of the hallway, where his deputy mayor, Holt, a bald head, was chatting and laughing with two Arasaka employees, and seemed to be very close.

With this look up, the Arasaka employee on the opposite side instantly looked at Ryan, and this move also shifted Hult's attention to this side.

Two of Arasaka's employees wore some sort of electronic prosthetic eye, a device that allowed them to capture more detail, and the horizontal red glowing strip looked more oppressive.

It is also more characteristic of Arasaka.

Seeing that it was his superior, Hult's smile instantly converged into a smile.

Ryan nodded slightly to the group, and then walked into the elevator that had been waiting for a long time, and Bryce followed closely behind.

No one spoke in the elevator, but Bryce suddenly said, "Your pit bull has a really good relationship with Arasaka, and it seems to be getting better and better." ”

Deputy Mayor Hoult, known to the outside world as Ryan's Bulldog.

Some members of the public believe that Ryan is Arasaka's dog and has received black money from the company, in large part because Holt, as his deputy, is often very close to Arasaka.

So Holt is also known as the dog of the company dog.

Ryan didn't react much to this, just smiled faintly: "Fierce dogs are not easy to raise, you can't expect me to manage him 24 hours a day."

Hasn't Perarez been discharged from the hospital yet? ”

"He'll be there."

"Good."

Bite.

The elevator doors opened, and in front of Ryan was a huge staircase chamber.

Representatives from various companies in the council have been seated one after another, and in his prosthetic eyes, the holographic HUD marks the companies represented by each seat, as well as the personal information of the representatives on the seats.

Kangtao, Military Technology, Arasaka, Peizhuo Petrochemical, Yeshi Group, Biotechnology, Zeta Technology, Jianli Group.

There are 10 seats in total.

After the people in Arasaka were in place, Hult stepped out of the work passage and just happened to pass Bryce who walked away.

People have taken their seats and stood on behalf of their companies, and although people came and went, there was no noise.

Soon, people stopped.

Whip.

A light sound sounded that was not obvious, and it was only on the surface that it was impossible to tell what the device was activating at all.

Ryan walked to the center of the room, ready to present the first and most important topic.

"Ahem. Welcome to the meeting, I won't say anything else, let's move on to the first topic -

It's up to you to send the Kujira to the back of the Port of Night City. ”

Ryan only opened the conversation and turned to Representative Arasaka, who seemed to have long been accustomed to Ryan's style, and the brightness of his prosthetic eyes had changed slightly.

This is the phenomenon of the prepared material being displayed on the HUD, and such an optical change can actually be technically masked, but it is clear that they don't need to do this now.

"Over the past six months, Night City has experienced several serious law and order incidents, including, but not limited to, a power outage at Company Square.

And just yesterday, Santo Domingue had a super-large-scale EMP, causing tens of millions of euros in economic losses.

This is very detrimental to the development of the city, if we can't even protect the safety of enterprises, how can we ensure economic development?

I would like to propose to increase municipal investment in the field of safety, which will be handled by Arasaka. ”

Hort glanced at Ryan without a trace, then at the empty seat in the city seat -

That's where Perares stood, who is a mayoral candidate and is actually an official in Night City politics, and before that he was even a representative of the council. Looking at military technology again, public relations representative Stott is still silent -

It's not that there's really nothing to say, it's that now isn't the best time to speak.

He touched his chin seemingly thoughtfully, and then used the LAN to send a message to Ryan:

[Deputy Mayor Hult: I think Arasaka's proposal is very constructive, Night City has the best military contracting company in the world. 】

[Deputy Mayor Hult: But the performance of military technology in the past six months is really embarrassing, maybe we should try some new options. 】

Ryan groaned, but showed no emotion.

Because he knows someone can talk—

[Meeting Tip: Jackson Perarez Requests to Enter Meeting]

You have approved. 】

[Meeting tip: Jefferson Perarez joins the meeting.] 】

Jefferson, who had been silent for a long time, walked into the conference hall, and as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he spoke:

"This is impossible, the presence of the Arasaka Company will make the situation in Night City even more uncontrollable.

Moreover, the corruption case of the deputy director of the NCPD involved in the H8 skyscraper has not yet been completely resolved.

We just swept away the scum of Deputy Director Forte, but before he died, he didn't say who else was behind him-

But we all know that the customers involved in the H8 skyscraper are a large number of Arasaka employees. ”

Hult couldn't sit still, and instead of choosing to use online communication, he replied: "So what? Employees of the company have immunity, which is not against the law. ”

Perarez smiled back: "But it will greatly affect Night City's autonomy, sending an aircraft carrier to Night City?" Only you can figure it out. ”

"So what do you think you should do? Continuing to use military-powered security services? ”

"No, I think it's imperative that we allocate funds to repair the power supply network and infrastructure in Santo Domingo, so that the Yeshi Group can adopt better equipment to put an end to cybercrime."

"That's interesting."

Stott raised his hand at this time: "I think this plan is feasible. ”

Hult looked at the woman, and suddenly understood the strategy of military technology in his heart-

Anyone can make this money anyway, not Arasaka.

"Hehe, and then the criminals will make an emp bomb, and do it again?"

"First of all, the night company has sufficient technical reserves and strength, and secondly, every place that Arasaka goes: Chiba, Watson District

You tell me, what will happen to these places when they take absolute control? ”

"People are rich."

"Rummaging through industrial waste for money? There's your Hult. ”

"That's better than bankrupting so many miserable small and medium-sized entrepreneurs, and if they do, they will starve to death!"

With Pellares' arrival, the atmosphere began to become lively, and Ryan continued to remain silent, watching the parliament debate.

From the beginning of the meeting until now, he has only said the opening remarks once.

And if nothing else, he won't have to say more than ten words until the end of the meeting.

Night City's most conflicting military technology and Arasaka will find a place to fight the cattle on their own, and in the end, on a macro scale, they will invest a lot of resources here.

It doesn't matter what those resources are.

But this time it's a little different, the oversized things have entered Night City, and there is one thing they can agree on -

After a verbal battle, Ryan found the place where the two sides were about to reach their first agreement.

Hult pointed to the ceiling, as if to enhance the momentum of his tone: "But those terrorists, each with a superweapon in their hands that can penetrate armored units in a frontal battle.

All they need to do is find a random spot in the city center and they'll blow your head out! ”

"Your head, Hult, don't be too arrogant." Perarez responded calmly, sounding like he was scolding and unconvinced, but then he said something different.

"I'd rather have the NCPD armed with more powerful weapons, and even if the NCPD loses control of the situation, we still have the Terrorist Task Force."

The consensus between the two sides is formed in a clever exchange of insults - Night City needs to escalate its firepower.

The Europeans put in a lot of outrageous munitions, if they don't come up with something more powerful

It's hard to say how things will turn out.

Either way, Arasaka and Military Tech have a common understanding: they all have their customers, and their products can't be crushed by European companies on the streets of escalation.

Ryan pondered silently in his heart, and then slowly spoke: "I said otherwise, these criminals are indeed too powerful, and we really need to invest more resources to upgrade public safety."

I think the NCPD can't be delayed any longer, and the Terrorist Task Force can be upgraded again, and I guess you all have more powerful equipment to put in.

As for the Kujira, if Arasaka and Arasaka's customers need some security, we can indeed let them stop here for a few days.

What do you think? ”
