Chapter 210 Night Talk

At around one o'clock in the morning, Qian was at the top of the company.

Lin Mo stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring blankly at the sea of ​​lights from a height.

Blurred lights and neon lights, colorful holographic projections, it seems that only at night, the city truly comes alive. Those flashing and vivid neon lights, as well as graceful and floating projections, are all signs of life in this city.

Now, all this dazzling beauty came into Lin Mo's eyes, like a dynamic picture drawn by an artist who spent his whole life learning and painted it on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows. What he saw was not only the lights of thousands of houses, but also a picture of human civilization.

Brilliant drawing of lights.

Lin Mo quietly watched the "picture scroll" in front of him, but his thoughts drifted to the distance.

He recalled the interrogation process just now. After the man surrendered, he also told all the information he knew.

However, the man knew nothing about the company behind the assassination.

At the moment when he became a traitor, his communication with his employer was through secret text messages to exchange intelligence and information, and the reward paid to him was in the form of being stored in a storage point somewhere for the man's family to

Go and get it.

Throughout the entire process, the man who acted as the traitor had no involvement with the mysterious employee.

He didn't know who he was working for. After all, the employer wanted him to know as little as possible about this kind of spy job.

Therefore, Lin Mo still has no way of knowing who is the company behind the assassination.

But it's different when it's daytime.

The news that the traitor has been exposed has been blocked, and all unrelated people who saw the man being arrested have also been controlled to ensure that the information will not be leaked.

In this way, once daylight comes and the aerial vehicle sets off according to the original plan and uses it as bait to attract the assassination team, the subsequent work will be nothing more than catching a turtle in a jar.

Once the members of the assassination team are captured, those guys will eventually know who is behind the scenes. In this case, the company behind the operation will also be exposed.

Although the whole plan was very simple, it was also very effective. Lin Mo could not find any flaws.

"Why are you standing there stupidly? It's your first time seeing this kind of scene, so are you shocked?"

Xu Wanxue's gentle voice sounded behind her, immediately waking Lin Mo back from his trance state.

He slowly turned sideways and looked behind him, only to see Xu Wanxue sitting calmly on the sofa in the office. In front of her was a beautiful glass table with some tea products placed on it.

"I have been here several times before, but you were not the vice president at that time, so I have never been here, let alone stood at such a high place overlooking the city." Lin Mo explained casually.

Xu Wanxue smiled and asked softly: "Do you think it looks good? Do you think it's shocking?"

"It's a bit shocking." Lin Mo replied calmly.

"Actually, if you can follow the steps and follow the route I have planned for you, with your intelligence and energy, you can be in my position and even do better than me before you are 30 years old." Xu Wanxue is a little bit.

Said regretfully.

...You still have to be 30 years old. By that time, according to the original game plot, you don’t know what the world will become... Lin Mo cursed in his heart.

This is also the reason why he doesn't want to take the corporate route. At his current age, even if he is promoted as fast as a rocket, he may not be able to hold a good position before the game plot begins.

"It's not that easy. Sister, your ability is much higher than mine. If I really want to be promoted, it is unlikely that I will be the vice president before the age of 30..."

Lin Mo's face didn't even turn red and he praised Xu Wanxue vigorously.

He was also telling the truth. In some aspects, the world view of Cyberpunk 2077 was born out of the original Blue Star world, so every company here has its own characteristics.

For example, Arasaka Company pays attention to the distinction between superiority and inferiority, which is in line with Bushido values; Military Technology is a militarized company and pays attention to obedience.

As for Kang Tao... he pays attention to connections.

However, due to the special geographical location of Night City, this feature has been reduced a lot. Major companies stationed in this city basically just set up branches here.

If there was no one above him, Lin Mo felt that he really didn't have much hope of being able to thrive in Kangtao Company.

Therefore, it is already a skill for Xu Wanxue to hold the position of vice president at the age of less than 30 years old.

Hearing Lin Mo's answer, Xu Wanxue also heard that Lin Mo actually meant something.

After a little thought, she could more or less guess what this kid was thinking.

"You kid, you have only complimented me like this since you were a child. Fortunately, I foolishly thought you were telling the truth and felt that I was indeed capable of creating a good environment for you. But now it seems that at that time, you

I have already made a lot of money, so how can my achievements be enough?" Xu Wanxue scolded with a smile.

Lin Mo shrugged, his expression quite innocent.

Xu Wanxue put away her smile, sighed, looked at Lin Mo and said quietly:

"Actually, if these things had not happened, I originally planned to take you back to China during this summer vacation."

"Huh?" Lin Mo looked at Xu Wanxue doubtfully, waiting for her next words.

"The main reason is that I want to take you to meet my parents. I have not been back for eight years since I came here. Now that I think about it, I think it is time to take you back." Xu Wanxue saw Lin Mo's doubts and said,

Briefly explained.

"Your home?" Lin Mo asked.

"Yeah, I haven't gone back these years, and I don't know what happened to those two old guys. Thinking about it carefully, it's better to go back. After all, if it weren't for you, I might have been assassinated and killed Qiaoqiao today. Come here

After being here for so many years, I know that many accidents happen every day in Night City, but I never thought that one day it would happen to me." Xu Wanxue mumbled.

My sister's parents...what should I call them?

Should you call me mom and dad, or uncle and aunt?

Lin Mo couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Uncle and aunt...how are you doing there?" After much thought, Lin Mo chose the latter title.

"There's no need for me to worry about those two guys. Instead of worrying about them, why not worry about me? When I came to Night City out of anger, I almost lost my life. If it weren't for you, I would have been depressed."

He ran back." Xu Wanxue said.

Lin Mo:......

Why do you hear this? My elder sister's parents are there and they seem to be quite powerful?

"What do uncle and aunt do?" Lin Mo asked curiously.

"Like me, manage one or two branches..." Xu Wanxue said nonchalantly.

Lin Mo's expression suddenly became very exciting.

Why is it that as we continue to chat, things are getting more and more wrong?

"In that case, I haven't mentioned the situation there to you..." Xu Wanxue also realized this problem and smiled and said:

"I've been thinking about making a name for myself in Night City all these years. Besides, for the sake of your identity, I didn't tell you these things. Now that I think about it, it's time to mention it to you."

"All ears." Lin Mo immediately sat across from him.

Xu Wanxue asked in anticipation: "Do you know who led Kangtao Company to revitalize and grow into a world giant?"

"Xu Shiming." Lin Mo replied without thinking. This kind of common sense has been taught in the college classes.

However, after saying the name, he realized something and his eyes widened slightly.

"Sister, both your and his surname are Xu..."

Before, he didn't think there was anything strange about this name.

But now after Xu Wanxue’s reminder...

"Don't be naive. He can only be regarded as my uncle or uncle. I am just an inconspicuous person in the Xu family. In the past, I could only see him from a distance at family gatherings during festivals. I

If you have something to do with him, why are you working hard here in Night City?"

Xu Wanxue broke Lin Mo's fantasy with a few casual words.

Lin Mo suddenly realized that some minor doubts in the past that were not problems were solved:

"So you can become the vice president of Qiandai Company because you are a member of the Xu family?"

Xu Wanxue twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, stood up suddenly, leaned forward, stretched out her hand and flicked Lin Mo's forehead, and said angrily:

"Sure enough, you are really glib. Just now you were praising my sister for her great abilities, but now you think I got here by relying on my connections, right?"

Lin Mo shut up and said nothing.

At this time, silence and not speaking to cover up the embarrassment is the best response.

"However, I did take advantage of the reputation of this surname. At this age, I became the vice president of Qiandai Company, and other people in the company were afraid to touch me, just because my surname was Xu." Xu Wanxue sat down again.

I went back to the sofa and started laughing at myself.

This is understandable, reincarnation is sometimes a matter of knowledge... Lin Mo said secretly, but did not dare to say such impolite words to his face.

Although Xu Wanxue was saying something self-deprecating, if he dared to follow the other person's self-deprecating comments and make a comment, he would surely receive "sister's love" in a second.

"Sister, do you want me to come back to China with you and introduce me to your parents?" Lin Mo asked, changing the subject.

Xu Wanxue nodded:

"That's right. You are so smart and smart. I believe those two old guys will like you very much. According to my original idea, if you join the company in the future, you will at least have a backer..."

Just as she said this, there was a slight knock on the door of the office. Xu Wanxue frowned, straightened her appearance, and said solemnly:

"come in."

The door of the office opened, and a woman with long black hair and straight hair walked in. Lin Mo looked over and saw that the woman had a delicate face with a classic charm and walked in a charming way.

The woman held two folded quilts with two pillows in her hands. She walked up to Xu Wanxue and handed them over respectfully, saying softly:

"President Xu, this is the quilt you want."

Xu Wanxue took the two thin quilts and pillows with an indifferent expression, nodded and said: "Excuse me, please get off work and rest tonight."

The woman replied in a low voice, walked back and left the place.

After seeing the woman leave, Xu Wanxue's face softened, she looked at Lin Mo and introduced:

"She is my secretary assistant. Even though she looks so weak, she actually has a lot of implanted combat prosthetics. Even if she acts as a temporary bodyguard, she is not inferior to a senior mercenary."

Lin Mo withdrew his gaze from observing the woman and nodded calmly, but in his heart he was thinking about something with average combat power, that is, a sword.

"How about it, she's not bad looking... Are you interested in getting to know her?" Xu Wanxue suddenly smiled meaningfully.

"Normally, not interested. You shouldn't be able to beat me in a fight anyway..." Lin Mo replied casually.

However, the next second, he seemed to realize that there was something wrong in Xu Wanxue's words, and couldn't help asking with a strange expression.

"Why are you talking about this...Sister, aren't you against my falling in love?"

Xu Wanxue smiled and disagreed:

"I asked you not to fall in love at school before, but I actually wanted to prevent you from being tainted by these romantic things... Although the current atmosphere is very open, you must not feel that it is your first time.

It’s not worth anything anymore.”

Lin Mo's eyes widened violently, completely confused as to why Xu Wanxue suddenly brought up this topic.

Where is this going?

"I know you are surprised, but listen to me." Xu Wanxue said helplessly:

"Your looks and abilities are actually a very precious asset. For the real business giants in China, in addition to looking at each other's family background, character and ability, they also have to look at the other person's genes for their children's spouses."

"According to my original expectation, after taking you back to China, I can find a suitable opportunity to bring you into the social circle. With your background, it will not be difficult to find a woman with a distinguished background as your fiancée. In this way,

From now on, whether you work in a company or start a business, you will have the backing of your father-in-law."

Lin Mo was immediately speechless.

He really didn't expect that Xu Wanxue would actually help him consider this aspect...

And after hearing what she said, her integrity seemed to suddenly improve. It turns out that being a boy is not only very useful for practicing martial arts, but it is also very popular in this aspect?

Is this the legendary hard-to-eat meal?

"As far as I know, Xu Shiming's granddaughter seems to be still single and very beautiful. If you can get along with her, you will be able to have a good life in the future." Xu Wanxue said nonchalantly.

"Sister, don't worry about these things about me. Instead of caring about me, it's better to care about yourself, who is about to run away from home." Lin Mo complained.

I really didn't expect that at his age, he would actually experience the pain of being forced to get married by his elders during the holidays in the Blue Star world.

"Me? Forget it, I have long planned to live alone. Anyway, the matter of carrying on the family line has nothing to do with me. Besides me, there are other brothers and sisters in the family." Xu Wanxue shook her head and refused, then looked at Lin Mo and solemnly warned

road:

"But, after all, you'd better not mess around until you reach adulthood! Take care of yourself, you know?"

Lin Mo nodded repeatedly.

Speaking of this, Xu Wanxue seemed a little tired, yawned, and her eyes were slightly sleepy.

She picked up a quilt and pillow and threw them on Lin Mo's sofa, and said a little tiredly:

"You can sleep here first tonight. In fact, this sofa is quite good to sleep on."

"Do you usually sleep in the office when you work overtime?" Lin Mo asked in surprise.

"Absolutely. After all, you can continue working after you wash up when you get up. In fact, after becoming a vice president, my daily work is not so tiring. The main reason is that I also serve as the project leader of a product... So these days

I work a lot of overtime every month.”

Xu Wanxue hugged the quilt, skillfully put the pillow back, and lay down straight on the sofa. Her movements were so smooth that she didn't know how many times she had practiced them.

"Product? Is it Sianwistan?" Lin Mo's eyes moved.

Xu Wanxue pondered for a while, then remembered that the research and development of the product had ended long ago, and was now about to enter the mass production stage. There was no need to be too strict about confidentiality, so she said without concealment:

"Well, as you guessed before, it is a fourth-generation speed component."

Lin Mo's brows jumped wildly: "When will it be released?"

Xu Wanxue huddled under the quilt, showing her head and looking at Lin Mo who was lying on the sofa opposite:

"Why do you ask? Do you still want to try to implant this kind of prosthetic body? Don't you have the third generation speed component?"

When Lin Mo confessed to her before, he also said that he had implanted the Sian Westan Type 3 and was very good at using it. It was also because of this prosthetic body that he achieved many achievements.

However, when people ask themselves, Xu Wanxue is still reluctant to let Lin Mo implant these prosthetics... but she also knows that she can't stop it.

It would be better to say that when it comes to mercenary-related affairs involving marginalized people, without implanting some prosthetic body, just saving one's life is a problem... Xu Wanxue also understands this truth very well.

"I think I have the strength to implant this latest generation of speed components." Lin Mo said calmly.

Xu Wanxue twitched the corner of her mouth and was about to retort, but Lin Mo's confident eyes blocked her words again.

This seems to be the case. Although this boy is not serious on weekdays, he will not do anything that he is not sure of.

However, when the words came to her lips, Xu Wanxue still did not give Lin Mo a definite answer. She just turned around silently and left Lin Mo with a back view:

"sleep early!"
