Chapter 196 The Blooming Iron Lotus
Cyan Bi Building.
Luxurious flat-floor suite on the top floor.
Arasaka Laixuan's face was extremely ugly. He just received the information from Adam Heavy Hammer from the front line of the outskirts stronghold, and he was in a bad mood.
At the last critical moment, the planned attack failed, and all those involved in the operation were annihilated, their bodies chopped into pieces, and their brains burned.
Lai Xuanyi rolled his eyes and dialed the encrypted communication.
The call is connected.
Arasaka Yoshinobu said weakly: "I'm sorry, Kenji-kun, Tie Lianhua's brothers."
If he hadn't insisted on carrying out this operation at the beginning, and for the sake of safety, he had specially arranged for his own people instead of choosing local gang members in Night City.
Those who participated in the operation and died were inseparable from him.
The other end of the phone seemed to have learned the information, and just sighed: "Their deaths have nothing to do with you. I didn't expect that the other party had such a strong person in ambush. Can you find out who did it?"
Arasaka Raisuan murmured: "It's Tang Yu, he arranged for two informants to hide in the stronghold, and everyone died on the spot."
Ye Baixianzhi on the other end of the phone was also surprised by this. As the founder of the Tie Lianhua Brotherhood, he has been secretly cultivating a high-end armed force under his own command.
The team that attacked the Arasaka stronghold came from him.
The whole team is not only very strong, and has successfully completed the assigned tasks many times, but also loyal to Tie Lianhua.
Tie Lianhua put a lot of effort into this team.
From the initial selection of personnel, people who would rather die would be selected and brainwashed for a long time to make them agree with the purpose of Tie Lianhua.
Then tailor-made a full-body high-level combat implant to strengthen the comprehensive ability of physical fitness.
This team is the backbone of the Tielianhua Brotherhood, and now it was cut off by Tang Yu's informant, which made Arasaka Laixuan feel very shocked and guilty.
It has been enough to counter the existence of the troops, but it was solved by Tang Yu's two informants, which is really puzzling.
Ye Baixian said coldly: "From this point of view, this person must be eliminated, otherwise there will be endless troubles. He can predict our actions, and there are such strong men under his command, which is enough to show that his methods are not simple."
Arasaka Laixuan deeply agrees, but he still has a little doubt: "The dead brothers, the stored prosthetic bodies in their minds have been destroyed. No one can detect their past and origin. It can be confirmed that Tang Yu did it."
then.
Lai Xuan added: "Maybe we should talk to him."
Rather than destroying the memory chip, Lai Xuan believes that Tang Yu can completely take away the memory storage, get more information after cracking it, and even hand it over to the company or Saburo Arasaka in exchange for more benefits.
In doing so, Tang Yu not only made contributions, but also effectively attacked Lai Xuan's forces.
But Tang Yu didn't choose to do this, and he erased the troubles for them.
Ye Bai Xianzhi said coldly: "Don't be fooled by his behavior, this kind of person who only wants to reach the pinnacle of power, probably wants to save his life in this struggle more than anyone else."
"His doing this is nothing more than trying to leave room for both sides. This kind of guy who is greedy for power cannot stand on the same front as us, let alone be used by us."
Arasaka Yoshinobu fell silent.
Because of Tang Yu's attack, the plan to intensify the conflict between Arasaka and military technology failed by attacking the Arasaka stronghold.
And it is even more difficult for him to use this to control the Arasaka Tower in the city of night.
Ye Baixianzhi persuaded: "Lai Xuan, if you want to achieve great things, you must first give up something. She refuses to give power to you. This in itself is a kind of tough attitude. Remember, without extreme determination, it will be difficult to achieve anything."
"The price we have paid is too much. This is a road full of blood. Please wake up early, Lai Xuanjun!"
Hearing the other party's persuasion, Arasaka Yoshinobu fell into entanglement and struggle.
According to Kenji Yebai's original idea, after he arrived in Night City, he arranged for Tie Lianhua ninja to wait for an opportunity to kill Michiko.
Planting the death of Michiko on military technology, and then taking advantage of the trend to control Arasaka Tower in the city of night, forcibly starting a new round of large-scale war with military technology.
At that time, Saburo Arasaka, who is far away in Kyoto, will be unable to get off the tiger.
If he chooses to take the initiative to apologize and negotiate with military technology to calm things down, then his reputation in the world and within Arasaka will be greatly affected, and he will not be far away from his real resignation.
If you choose to escalate the conflict, you will follow the intention of the Tielianhua Brotherhood and take the opportunity to provoke a company war and drag everyone into the quagmire of war.
But Lai Xuan didn't want to kill Michiko innocently because of the power struggle.
In the Arasaka family, she has always stayed away from the Kyoto family house, and has not been deeply involved in family affairs. Everything Saburo has done has nothing to do with her.
and.
As his elder brother's only blood in the world, Michiko couldn't do it no matter what.
Lai Xuan is not a bloodthirsty person, he wants to inspire a broader force to overthrow Saburo's rule.
While submitting to Saburo Arasaka in Kyoto on the surface, he secretly communicated and cooperated with network surveillance, and borrowed power from outside the black wall to destroy his eternal life plan.
At the same time, the relic biochip technology was introduced to the market in Night City, exposing Saburo Arasaka's ambitions to the world, and getting all the dignitaries involved in this crazy experiment.
When people use relic biochips with imperfect technology, they will inevitably have frequent accidents and strongly question Arasaka's intentions.
Projects such as soul killers, mikoshi, and relic biochips will all receive unprecedented opposition from society.
Lai Xuan thinks that his father can't last long, he can only destroy his eternal life plan, then he will have enough time to prepare.
"Kenji, wait and see, no matter what, we have come to where we are today."
Ye Baixianzhi's tone was a little helpless, and he said sadly: "That's it, then contact me when you figure it out."
The phone hangs up.
Arasaka Yoshinobu fell into deep thought.
"Tang Yu, it seems that we really need to talk."
He turned around and looked at the electronic image on the screen. It was the nostalgic concert of Samurai Band in the company square, and Kerry sang hard alone.
Arasaka Tower.
Jungle meeting room.
Xiao Michiko couldn't help snorting when she saw the dumb board members around the conference table.
Just now, she was aggressive and accused her of inaction with intelligence. After seeing the first-line evidence provided by Tang Yu, everyone fell silent.
It wasn't military technology that attacked the Arasaka stronghold, but another unknown force. They couldn't bear the responsibility if they broke face with military technology rashly.
Although Tang Yu found evidence that the attacker was not a military technology, he still hasn't found out the details of the other party, and it's not a good thing to do.
After Xiao Michiko gained the upper hand, she did not continue to attack, but asked the relevant departments to continue to pursue the investigation.
But she believes that with Tang Yu's investigation, the other party will be more or less honest.
After Xiao Michiko announced the end of the meeting, she turned and returned to her exclusive office.
She already knew the details of the scene. The attacker's body was cut up in half, and the brain storage chip was burned. The people from Arasaka's technical department couldn't find any useful clues.
Michiko wondered whether these attackers had set up a self-destruct program, or someone else did it.
If Tang Yu did it, then there must be more secrets hidden behind him.
Xiao Michiko couldn't figure it out for a moment.
Tang Yu has been doing things in her hands, but it always makes her feel uncontrollable.
He is really good at handling things, and he can always help him stabilize the plate at critical moments, but it is hard to say that he has any loyalty.
Xiao Michiko couldn't imagine what kind of backstab she would suffer if Tang Yu turned her face one day.
She arranged Sasha next to Tang Yu for this purpose.
After guessing for a while, she called up the contact interface and sent a message to Tang Yu.
"The board of directors is finally done. The materials you sent are very timely. After waiting for a while, let's go to a hot spring. The Tiger Claw Gang has opened a new hot spring shop on Sakura Street." '
It didn't take long to receive a reply.
"Got it, contact me when I'm free."
Michiko: "."
She closed her eyes and smiled helplessly, she seemed to have gotten used to this guy's presumptuousness, always slipping like a loach.
Michiko sat back at her desk, turned on the office system, and prepared to continue dealing with some unfinished business.
The attack on the Arasaka stronghold by unknown forces is only a small part of her work. More important projects involve hundreds of millions of funds, and she has to carefully consider and judge to make decisions, and feedback the decisions and results to Kyoto in a timely manner.
She believed that the efforts she had made would be seen by Saburo-sama who was far away in Arasaka Manor in Kyoto.
If you don't think about credit and hard work, you will leave one-third of an acre of land for her in the future, so that you won't have nothing.
Just as she called up the office system, an official internal announcement from Arasaka Tower in Kyoto arrived.
Michiko Kono hastily clicked to check it, and her pupils shrank instantly.
I saw that in the content of the notice, it clearly stated that the main person in charge of the Night City Arasaka Tower was changed to Arasaka Yoshinobu, and Arasaka Michiko was the co-managing director, assisting Arasaka Norinobu in his work.
Approved by: Saburo Arasaka.
Michiko stared blankly at the notice, her eyes filled with disbelief.
It was like a thunderbolt fell in her mind, shaking her head numb, leaving nothing but a blank.
"grandfather."
She didn't know what to say, and she didn't understand why Saburo Arasaka would approve such a decision.
soon.
Michiko was relieved.
As the orthodox heir of the Arasaka Company, Lai Xuan should practice with the Arasaka Tower in Night City before taking the helm.
Perhaps Saburo Arasaka's time is short, and he hopes to use this method to let Lai Xuan adapt earlier and become the real helm of Arasaka.
now.
Xiao Michiko only felt that what Tang Yu said was too right. The Arasaka company was not a battlefield at all, but the dictatorship of Saburo Arasaka.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't change the fact that her name was Michiko Arasaka, nor could she change that she was an 'outsider' of the Arasaka family.
And Arasaka Yoshinobu, as Saburo's only surviving son, was born to have everything in the Arasaka Empire. Even if he had rebelled and made mistakes countless times, it still couldn't change that he was the new king who was about to ascend the throne.
Arasaka Yoshinobu.
What a valuable four words.
Xiao Michiko thought she would be wronged, but found that she couldn't shed a single tear.
She had expected such a result, she could fight anyone and anything, but in the end she couldn't fight Lai Xuan.
Xiao Michiko only feels disgusted with this family, and even her name is the inherited name of Lai Xuan's mother.
As the most important symbol of the Arasaka family, this name is second only to Saburo Arasaka.
But the treatment she received was completely opposite. She was hid in America by her father Arasaka since she was a child, and she dared not have any contact with the Kyoto family at all.
And her appearance is different from other family members, which is why she hates going back to Kyoto and tries her best to stay in New America.
She has put in countless times more effort than Raisaka Arasaka to achieve her current status.
Nowadays.
All it takes is a word from Saburo Arasaka, and she has to surrender.
Michiko took a few deep breaths, stretched out her fingertips and clicked to confirm receipt.
Because she is the co-managing director, when Arasaka Yoshinobu does not go to work in Arasaka Tower in person, she can still work as usual to handle affairs.
The only difference is that her heart has changed.
Tang Yu sat on the balcony with his guitar in his arms, playing the rock tunes of Samurai band.
I haven't played electric guitar for a while, and my fingering is a little rusty.
After today's board meeting, it may be difficult for Arasaka Yoshinobu to explain.
He had already found a clue, the group of people who attacked the Arasaka stronghold came from the Tie Lianhua Brotherhood.
And the mastermind behind the scenes is very likely to be the mysterious person in the Crystal Palace Super Dream. Tang Yu guessed that there is a high probability that it is Ye Baixianzhi, the founder of the Tielianhua Brotherhood.
Tang Yu is supportive of the Tielianhua Brotherhood.
He knew that the members of this organization were all descendants of chaebols like Yoshinobu Arasaka, hoping to overthrow the tyranny of the company through joint forces, but after so many years, there was little effect.
Perhaps Lai Xuan woke up a little earlier than the others, knowing that once he leaves the company and loses his Arasaka surname, he will be unable to do anything.
Wanting to use the power of the company to overthrow the company is like a tree without roots, lacking real power.
If Arasaka Yoshinobu really wants to complete his plan, he must first eradicate his beloved Hanako, and then find out the backup that Arasaka Saburo hid in a shrine somewhere, and delete all the data about him.
In the end, he came to power in an official capacity, completely controlled the entire Arasaka Tower, and set off a world-class war that destroyed the whole world.
But if it is destroyed, will a better new life be born?
In this regard.
Tang Yu is conservative.
The fifth corporate war broke out, and the trauma suffered by the world is definitely not as simple as destroying giant companies.
Countless lives will die innocently in the violent turmoil, and the world will enter a new round of darkness.
Let the world rebuild order in blood and fire. It is foreseeable that the pain and tears of the people at the bottom will not be reduced.
They had tried this grand and romantic plan, but in the end they inevitably lost everything.
Tang Yu could no longer accept such a result.
He couldn't be like Johnny Silverhand, who was willing to burn everything for the fire in his heart, even at the expense of everyone around him.
Perhaps, he really needs to have a good talk with Lai Xuan.
None today.
Wishing everyone good luck in the Year of the Rabbit.
Go to the Spring Festival Gala with your family.
