Chapter 797 The beginning of chaos
According to the coordinates provided by Regina, the group came to a dilapidated warehouse located north of Night City. There, D meets the anxious Regina.
"Where are people?"
After seeing D, this is the first question Regina asked. D made a gesture to Lucy, who opened the reserve compartment and dragged the unlucky idiot out.
"So this is all true, damn..."
Looking at the Cyber ??madman in front of him, Regina gritted her teeth and then looked at D.
"We are in great trouble now... Maybe you don''t know yet. In fact, after receiving your data, I investigated and found that this is related to an important project at Arasaka - do you know RELIC?"
"That soul chip is right? There are advertisements on TV every day, and I''m so annoyed."
Hearing Regina''s inquiry, D raised his eyebrows and answered. In fact, this is also the reason why D was determined to take action with Arasaka - digitizing the soul of a human being and then living forever... Haha, the moment he heard this, D immediately thought of the fear of the deceased and the Star God. If he didn''t tear Arasaka Company into pieces, would that be great?
"Yes, after investigation, I found that this should be another project of Arasaka Company''s digital soulization...! If we can break this out, Arasaka Company will be finished!"
"That''s right, no one wants to be artificially turned into a Cyberman...so Araka will definitely try his best to stop us."
“That’s right.”
Regina nodded, then she stared at Lucy and Panan behind D.
"Who else knows about this?"
“At present, there are only four of us.”
“………Okay, where is the data?”
“Here.”
D took out the chip and handed it over.
“Oh, by the way, I have a backup.”
"This is a good thing, but we still have to think about how to play this card."
Regina nodded.
"Arasaka controls most of the media, but even so, once the digital soul-based project is exposed, Arasaka will be completely finished. But the question is, when, where, and who should we break all this out to."
"Since you said that, then you must have a direction?"
"Of course, the latest International Information Security Conference will be held in Munich. If I can find a way to get there, I can make this issue public, which will definitely cause an unimaginable blow to Arasaka. I hope you can go to Munich with me, at least it will increase my operational security a lot."
"Then let Lucy and Panan follow you."
D doesn''t care at all.
"I will stay here to attract Arasaka''s attention. As long as they feel that the data is still on me, they will not cause trouble for you. In addition, I have very important things to do in Night City."
"Are you sure?"
Regina was quite surprised when she heard D''s answer.
"Arasaka must have regarded you as the number one suspect. This city is almost always under the control of Arasaka, so you stay here..."
“I haven’t taken it seriously yet.”
D waved his hand.
"Okay, let''s go right now!"
"Now?"
Lucy and Panan were both shocked when they heard Regina''s words.
"Wait, is this too fast?"
"If you continue to delay, Arasaka will come here at any time. They will never let anyone know about this. Or do you want to stay here and wait for the pursuit from Arasaka like D?"
"Well………"
Hearing Regina''s words, Lucy and Panan looked at each other.
"Quick! Let''s buy a plane ticket to Munich now and enter the airport in the shortest time! Let''s set off now!"
Faced with Regina''s urging, Lucy and Panan couldn''t say anything else, so they had to bite the bullet and sit in Regina''s car, while the latter looked at D.
"Don''t die, I suggest you can hide nearby for a while. As long as we disclose everything Arasaka has done at the Munich Security Conference, you will be safe."
"Don''t worry about me. Maybe when you come back, Night City will become a completely different look."
“?"
Hearing D''s answer, Regina was a little surprised, but she still smiled at D.
"I hope so. To be honest, I don''t think Night City can be much better, after all, this city is just like this... Alas, but this is definitely the biggest news in my career, just look at it."
After saying this, Regina stepped on the accelerator, and then a moment later she drove to the other side of the street. And D just looked at her left behind lightly without saying a word.
[She will definitely not like what you do]
At the same time, Liumier''s voice sounded in D''s ears.
“The judge never does something to make people like it. People fear us and hate us, but it doesn’t matter to the judge. We are just doing our jobs, our duties, everything we do.”
D withdrew his gaze and looked around.
"To be honest, it was the right decision that she did not inform Arasaka."
[I think so too]
Liumier also agreed with D''s argument. Indeed, if it were other middlemen, they might have to cut with D at this time, and maybe they would sell it backhand. But D is sure that Regina doesn''t. It''s not how much D trusts Regina, but from the perspective of interest, it doesn''t do Regina any good - Arasaka wants to kill everyone who knows this, so Regina herself will definitely be dealt with. Not to mention that Regina used to be a reporter, she must have seen many things like killing donkeys. To take a step back, even if she sold D today, she might die under the gun of Araka. On the other hand, if this matter is exposed and Arasaka is killed, then she will be safe forever.
So Regina is quite reliable in this regard.
But others are not that reliable.
"Let''s go to the next life."
Thinking of this, D made a decision.
"It''s time to cause some trouble for the old lady who always likes to avoid things."
Yes, D is talking about Roger. If Regina is a loyal middleman, then this old woman has sold her more than once, although because D is strong enough, she can avoid it every time. But D was very upset with the other party''s face, "Since you can handle it, it''s okay."
So she didn''t mind going around the next life and causing some confusion for the old woman - when the Arakashi intelligence department came to her, her expression would definitely be very exciting.
The next life is still noisy and noisy as always. For D, I really don’t like this disco-like environment at all. To be honest, D cannot understand why someone likes this, just like why someone likes rock music - that kind of steel noise makes people feel a headache when you hear it, and the roar at the top of your lungs represents rebellion and freedom. In the final analysis, it is not just HIGH. He is dyed with yellow hair tattoos, smoking cigarettes and drinking, jumping around the dance floor like a madman, thinking that he is rebellious, non-mainstream, and freedom.
But when those rural women come to rob you of things in front of you, one of them is more cowardly than the dog guarding the door, and they dare not bark. The so-called rock spirit, freedom and struggle are gone, and the rest are a group of little kids who only dare to lower their heads and mumble in timidity.
“Hey, D.”
Claire, behind the counter, greeted D.
"Is there something wrong? Roger hasn''t come yet."
"No, come and go around."
"You will come here for a walk, it''s really unexpected...what should I come?"
"Old look, a bottle of Lele Monkey."
“Here you come.”
After taking the drink, D found a not-so-noisy place in the corner and sat down, drinking the drink while looking around. Perhaps because it is during the day, there are not many people here. But at night, there will be more people here. Now there are only some mercenaries without missions here to pass the time...
"Ah, D... I really didn''t expect to see you here."
A voice sounded in D''s ear. D raised his head and saw a **** fat man wearing a gold chain standing in front, looking at him with a smile. D knew him, his name was Dexter, and he was also a famous middleman in the next life. However, he was different from Regina and Goko, who were in charge of each other. He belonged to the entire Night City, and he would accept the commissions from anywhere. D had had a deal with him once or twice before, and also accepted the commissions, but they were just ordinary friends.
"What, Roger has a mission?"
"I''m just here to sit."
“It’s rare that you can come here to sit.”
The **** fat man spread his hands.
"Since that''s the case, do you want to accept my entrustment?"
"I plan to have a vacation recently and have a rest, but I don''t plan to accept the commission for the time being."
D put down the Lelemon in his hand and glanced at the fat black man, but the latter didn''t care.
"No problem, then contact me if you have something to do in the future."
After saying this, the **** fat man took his bodyguard to the corridor on the other side - well, there is a private room, and it seems that there are unlucky people who are going to get on the **** fat man''s pirate ship today.
While drinking a drink, D retracted his gaze again and began to discuss the next plan with Rumier.
[Raitsu Arasaka has arrived at Night City, but he did not go to Arasaka Tower, but stayed in the penthouse suite of Kanbi Building]
"I thought he would go to Arasaka Tower to inspect it, but the prince was not interested at all?"
[According to the information searched on the Internet, he once led a gang to rebel against Arasaka Company, but it failed. Perhaps Arasaka Rairu himself did not like Arasaka Company]
"The rebellious young man in the middle school is like this. He has no plans or ideas, and acts with just enthusiasm and passion. In the end, he lost to reality in shame... Alas, it''s not too late to read a few more books."
D snorted lightly.
"But fortunately, this bait is still very useful. Are you sure Saburo Arasaka will come to Night Castle?"
[Yes, the judge, according to intranet information, Arasaka Raitsuki stole RELIC and is currently planning to join forces with the Internet Supervision to sell the RELIC to the Internet Supervision. And Saburo Arasaka will secretly go to Kanbi Building to meet Arasaka Rairu]
"That''s good. The two of them just happened to be cleaned up together, and with Arasaka Kazuko... have you implanted the virus?"
[Yes, but Arasaka Kazuko is not from Arasaka Group...]
"This has nothing to do with us. To completely destroy the Arasaka Group, we must completely destroy all existences that may continue. Fortunately, there are only a few people left in the Arasaka family. As long as they are killed, the Arasaka company will fall into a state of leaderlessness. Cooperating with the information released by Regina, Arasaka will not be able to die this time. Then..."
However, before D''s words were finished, suddenly, an excited voice came from a distance.
"Hey, look, that''s it, V, the heart of Night City - beating constantly. Can you imagine? Susan Forest, Old Snake, and even Morgan Black Hand... have all sat on these stools and slept on this bar."
D looked up and saw a strong man with a bun on his head, walking into the next life with a young man. The man looked around excitedly, while introducing something to his companions.
“There are two unlucky newcomers again.”
D withdrew his gaze and shook his head. Every day, self-righteous newcomers come here, eager to become the most famous figure in Night City. However, in terms of D, there is no honor or reputation here at all. In the final analysis, no matter how famous it is, mercenaries are still mercenaries, but they are just dogs who are begging for mercy under the company.
At this moment, D saw Roger coming over. When she saw herself, Roger''s expression was obviously a little surprised.
"Yo, D, are you actually here?"
"Just come and go around casually."
Seeing Rogge, D laughed, stood up and nodded to her.
"Okay, it''s time for me to go back, I wish you good luck."
After saying this, D left directly, while Roger looked at D in confusion - for some reason, she always felt that D''s last sentence was a bit meaningful.
