In the early morning, the sun rises and shines on the earth.
The sun shines down obliquely, and the shadows are dispersed by the light. However, the high-rise buildings in the city cover another area again, casting large shadows. The company square is still in a state of half sunlight and half shadow.
The flow of people on the circular island began to surge, and the aerial vehicle floating in mid-air shuttled between high-rise buildings like a dragon.
An inconspicuous floating vehicle also drove out of the parking lot in the middle of the Qiandai Company building. The automatic iron door leading to the outside slowly opened, and the silver-gray floating vehicle slowly floated out according to the scheduled time.
According to the initial setting, the flight route of the aerial vehicle should have been heading towards the North Oak Area.
But until the aerial vehicle gradually moved far enough away from the company building, the aerial vehicle suddenly deflected its direction, and gradually drove towards an unknown place as if it had changed its route midway.
Inside the Qianti Company, there is a data room dedicated to monitoring aerial vehicle signals.
The employees who were constantly monitoring the signal position also immediately received an early warning of the float vehicle failure. They immediately stood up and said to the woman beside them:
"President Xu, just as you said, this floating vehicle has deflected as planned and is heading elsewhere."
Xu Wanxue nodded slightly and calmly stared at the red dot displayed on the screen.
That was the floating car she often rode in the past. Now it has changed from a green dot to a red dot, indicating that it is out of the company's control.
"Have you studied clearly the chip that is capable of controlling the entire floating vehicle and the chip containing the hacking component?"
Xu Wanxue tilted her head and scanned the people present with her sharp eyes.
Nowadays, a conference table has been set up in the huge data room, and many professionals are sitting in their respective positions, working hard to complete their work and provide Xu Wanxue with professional analysis and summary.
In front of the conference table, there is a large display screen embedded in the wall, displaying various complex parameter data.
Among these people, the most eye-catching one is a woman with burgundy hair. She is sitting in her seat with a somewhat frivolous attitude, closest to Xu Wanxue's position.
Faced with Xu Wanxue's question, a researcher responded promptly:
"The personnel of the intelligence department have already studied it. There is a high probability that the chip was written by the company. The Golem program is quite professional and has traces of professional learning. It is impossible for those wild hackers to have such professional programming techniques."
Xu Wanxue nodded indifferently, her eyes never leaving the big screen.
"I asked our vice president, what exactly did he do this time to actually call me here?"
The burgundy-red woman leaned forward, approached Xu Wanxue, and spoke in Xu Wanxue's ear in what she thought was a quiet voice.
Xu Wanxue glanced indifferently at the woman beside her, looking at her sullen look, she felt helpless inside.
That's right, the woman in front of her is none other than one of her few best friends in Night City, Kang Tao's prosthetic expert—Liu Ruoying.
Although she was helpless at the woman's actions, Xu Wanxue sighed as if she had no choice but to respond calmly:
"You'll know as you read on, but I'm warning you, if you don't want to die in front of everyone, remember to maintain your character later and don't embarrass me!"
Liu Ruoying was stunned for a moment, and the curiosity in her eyes became more intense. But seeing Xu Wanxue looking at the screen again, she expected that she would not continue to explain, so she had to look at the screen as well.
Soon, it seemed that they knew that the action of hijacking the aerial vehicle could not be hidden from the people of Qiandai Company for too long. Within a few minutes after the aerial vehicle lost control, the red dot on the screen began to slow down and gradually stagnated. It seemed that it had been found.
Landed somewhere.
"What's the situation with the unmanned surveillance drone? I need to check the situation at the scene." Xu Wanxue ordered again.
"The signal is being connected, please wait." A staff member responded promptly.
As he made a few operations on his computer, the live surveillance screen instantly appeared on the big screen.
The drone suspended in mid-air uses the highest level of pixels to clearly project the scene on the screen.
Everyone saw the silver-gray floating vehicle gradually landing on the roof of a building.
The roof of the building is covered with pipe coils and water tanks of different sizes. There is a lot of debris and the area is very large, but obviously there is no good parking environment.
The excellent parking system of the floating car still found the most suitable parking position and slowly landed on top of a water tank.
In the past, even the old AV-4 floating vehicle, which weighed 6 tons, could be parked on the roof of a car under the driver's exquisite control.
The latest company-standard floating vehicle obviously does not lack this ability. It found the best landing position and stopped firmly on the water tank.
In the data room, everyone watched the surveillance screen with bated breath. Just when they began to wonder why the aerial vehicle was parked in such a place, an accident happened in the blink of an eye.
Several clusters of blooming flames suddenly appeared on the roof of the building, like will-o'-the-wisps that suddenly appeared during the day, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present.
Before they could react, several explosive flames exploded on the floating vehicle.
This scene happened so fast that the data room was deathly quiet.
The person who immediately broke the dull atmosphere was the leader, Xu Wanxue. She suddenly stood up from the chair, staring at the surveillance screen, biting her lower lip unconsciously, and her body began to tremble for some reason, showing a panic she had never seen before.
On the screen, in addition to the surveillance screen, the small window map on the outside also showed that the floating vehicle had been damaged at this time.
"It's optical skin plating! These attackers have been implanted with optical skin plating that can make them invisible! They also used heavy firepower weapons!" exclaimed a person who is proficient in firearms knowledge.
"They fired armored projectiles. Judging from the defense level of this aerial vehicle, the aerial vehicle has now been completely scrapped..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A staff member added in a superfluous manner, and his face looked a little embarrassed as soon as he finished speaking.
He also realized that what he said was nonsense. After all, the surveillance screen had already shown that the aerial vehicle was in a destroyed state.
The moment the flames appeared, several brightly colored figures were immediately marked on the surveillance screen.
These people are gathered in various places on the roof of the building, and their positions are extremely tricky. No matter where the aerial vehicle lands on the roof, they can suddenly attack it.
"Communication jammers have been deployed on site... If it weren't for the signal provided by the drone, it would be difficult for us to find out the current location of the aerial vehicle." A person reminded again.
Everyone looked solemn.
Obviously, this was an assassination attack as fast as a rainstorm. From the beginning, this assassination team had no intention of letting the people sitting in the floating car survive.
The entire assassination process, from the accident to the float vehicle being blown up, only took a few minutes.
The accident happened on the roof of a building. Even if the passengers in the floating car survived by chance, they would be facing a situation where there would be no escape.
Many people present thought of this and couldn't help but look at the leading woman, who was standing up and looking at the screen with a cold expression.
Obviously, if the vice president had not been informed of the assassination in advance, the incident would have made headlines on the evening news.
Fortunately, there seemed to be no passengers on the float.
Next, just wait for the company's security forces to arrive at the scene and surround the building. Then there will be absolutely no way for this assassination team to escape...
"Wait a minute, look, zoom in on the surveillance screen. There is someone standing there at the entrance and exit of the rooftop!" A person pointed at the screen and exclaimed.
On the surveillance screen, the original overview of the entire rooftop was instantly expanded several times, with the location of the rooftop entrance and exit clearly reflected on the screen.
There, at some point, stood a young man in a yellow jacket, wiping the katana in his hand with a handkerchief in a leisurely manner, but his eyes were sternly scanning every corner of the rooftop.
His lips moved slightly, as if he was shouting into the air, but everyone understood that he was talking to the invisible killers.
The drone collected the sound waves from the scene very well, so everyone in the data room also heard the boy's words:
"Now, it's time to change shape offensively and defensively."
Setting the attack location on the roof of the building is indeed a good choice.
It not only prevents prey from escaping, but also prevents hunters from escaping. It is very fair to both.
