Wu Qianying scrolled down a few videos, including one recorded by the girl herself. She froze a fish, then thawed it and threw it back into the sea. The fish swam quickly and disappeared into the water.
"This is the newly popular Internet celebrity in puppy videos, Ice and Snow Princess." Wu Qianying pointed to the girl's number of fans, which was more than 1.6 million: "Let's not talk about the issue of energy conservation. Did you see it? We studied it.
The biological freezing technology that has failed to break through in five years has been solved by a girl who has never finished high school."
"You want me to kidnap her?" Tang Ji frowned. He didn't care about being a villain for Tang Anran, but the other party was undoubtedly a public figure now, and it would be difficult to clean up the aftermath.
"We are a step late. From the time she became popular yesterday to the time she disappeared early this morning, the Ice and Snow Princess was only popular for nine hours." Wu Qianying shook her head: "I'm afraid you have to conduct a hostage rescue operation."
"She was kidnapped?" Tang Ji was a little stunned. The order of this world collapsed faster than everyone expected.
"Thanks to the girl you brought back before, she found the kidnapper's information on the Internet." Wu Qianying looked like I have a secret to tell you: "The girl you brought back is a super human."
Tang Ji didn't know how to comment on this. He once hated superhumans and was even considered an extremist at one time. You can know this by looking at the superhuman criminals imprisoned in Area D of Night City Prison.
But with the appearance of the player and his understanding of the origin of superhumans, Tang Ji's hatred for superhumans has dissipated a lot.
However, it is undeniable that as the number of superhumans continues to grow, it is also true that the proportion of superhuman criminals in their own race is much larger than that of ordinary humans.
For an ordinary person, if he wants to go down the road of crime, he needs external factors and maybe a little courage, but for superhumans, this road is more convenient.
Those superhumans who can become famous on the Internet are just the emerging group of this group. These people either have abilities that are suitable for showing off, or they are handsome men and beautiful women with superior appearance.
Aria's experience is quite special. Her father intentionally isolated her from the Internet because he knew that someone had been hunting valuable superhumans for a long time.
In this world, the person who knows best which superhuman beings are valuable is the Prophet, because she has peeked into the future four times and walked alone through four futures that have never happened.
Adhering to the principle that gold always shines, the prophet knows almost every name that will shine in the future timeline.
But because players made arrangements in advance, many names familiar to the prophet disappeared without a trace.
For example, Aria, if Tangji mentioned this name to the restriction, the prophet would definitely tell him that in both futures, Aria became a big shot and was called the omniscient one.
Her ability allows her to absorb knowledge on the Internet in a similar way to packaged downloads. In the other two futures without Arya, one was when greed and jealousy in the Seven Deadly Sins teamed up to destroy the entire Internet, and they destroyed the hardware.
network.
Another time, Aaliyah had a car accident when she was a child and did not grow up.
Wu Qianying originally arranged Alia's studio in the central area of Night City. In addition to the higher radiation level, the living environment here is very comfortable.
Most of the blocks have been repaired by the Korining Company. As long as you don't go towards the center of the explosion, you don't have to worry about getting cancer immediately.
Due to the migration of the population, there is no street power in the entire central area, and Colinin Company is the only law here.
Nearly one-third of the residents in the central area are employees and family members of Kolinin Company.
The remaining residents are either valuable groups screened by the Korinin Company, or they are like Aria, who paid a high price to stuff themselves in just for safety.
It only took four days from the time Aaliya learned how to turn on a computer to when she learned how to create a small virus that caused the ATM on the street to automatically dispense money.
By the time Tang Ji was released from prison, Aaliya had already learned three languages by herself from the Internet, and helped Wu Qianying find the address where the signal last appeared on the phone of Internet celebrity Ice and Snow Princess. It was completely smooth sailing.
"Hello, Tang." After not seeing each other for a few months, Aaliya's temperament has completely changed. Tang Ji can hardly recognize this girl who looked like a tomboy at first sight in the video.
In comparison, she now looks closer to Wu Qianying.
"Hello, Aaliya." Tang Ji didn't have much impression of this girl in his heart. He took her out of the slums because of a promise, and this promise ended after he handed her over to Wu Qianying.
.
Alia did him a favor, he paid her, and they no longer owed each other anything.
But for Aaliya, things are obviously not that simple. For her, Tangji not only provided her with an opportunity, but also opened up a whole new world for her.
Not only did she get rid of her past life, but she also had enough money to cure her mother's illness. Alia hoped that she could repay Tang Ji.
"The girl whose account is named Ice and Snow Princess, the last call recorded was to her boyfriend." Aaliyah danced her hands on the keyboard like an elf: "They made an appointment to meet at the Sunshine Hotel, and I intercepted the route
Surveillance video shows that five minutes after the call, the taxi called by Ice and Snow Princess took her away from the main road."
A video surveillance picture was put on the screen by Alia. A taxi suddenly rushed down the roadbed and quickly left the video surveillance range.
California in October is one of the states with the most tourists in the federal government, and a large number of cases of missing tourists occur everywhere here. Obviously, this has formed a gray industry chain.
Most tourists will be taken to a remote location far away from the city within eight hours, waiting for their families to pay a ransom to be ransomed, while a small number will fall into a more tragic fate.
The disappearance of the Ice Princess is just one of those cases that is not considered very eye-catching. If it were not for the recent surge in her number of fans on puppy videos, it would not even be in the news.
"This is the list I compiled of all the people who may have been involved in the kidnapping case." Aaliyah sent a compressed package online: "I'm glad I can help you. I will continue to collect relevant information and pass it on to you at any time.
"
"You know that group of players have some secret weapon on the Internet, right?" Tang Ji whispered in Wu Qianying's ear and asked: "Now it is very likely that some players have returned to our world. Is it safe for us to communicate through the Internet?"
"The little girl you picked up is more powerful than you thought. She has found the traces left by the other party on the Internet. She is sure that the other party is temporarily dormant." Wu Qianying also replied in a low voice: "If there is no network, we will lose.
Go faster and leave the technical issues to me."
"That's it, Aaliya. If there is any new situation, please notify us in time." Wu Qianying hung up the video screen, and Aaliya's image was frozen on the scene of her extending her hand to say goodbye: "She has a good impression of you."
Tang Ji looked at Aaliya's young face. He didn't want to put his chips on such a young shoulder, but it seemed that he had no other choice. Wu Qianying chose to believe her, and that was all he could do.
The least he could do was find the ice princess as soon as possible, and then bring her back and hand her over to Wu Qianying whether she wanted to or not.
Unknowingly, Wu Qianying's laboratory has become a superhuman research center, and the weird superhumans and samples brought back by Tang Ji from all over the world are temporarily stored here.
"LS Road Group has also made additional investments recently, and we still have sufficient manpower." Wu Qianying smiled as always: "Tang Anran's existence is still top-secret information. The greater our momentum, the less suspicious the outside world will be of us.
"
"For the sake of safety, I have asked the Lazarus Group to apply for an increase in security level. Based on our recent results, the application has been approved." Wu Qianying continued: "And because of the growth in the number of superhuman beings, biotechnology stocks are also increasing.
The market value of Lazarus is soaring as it continues to proliferate. In order to ensure our safety, the board of directors is considering acquiring Green Wave Lake Security Group to supplement the gap in force."
"Is that the PMC company that contracted the Night City Law Enforcement Bureau?" Tang Ji felt that the stories that happened every day in the capital market were magical. In fact, it was difficult for him to accept this transformation where yesterday we were enemies and today we become allies.
"Yes, there are people on the board of directors who are promoting this matter. From an overall perspective, this acquisition is good for you and Tang Anran." Wu Qianying looked at Tang Ji with some scrutiny: "I guess it is the prophet from the Ark Organization who is here.
Show your kindness."
"I will find an opportunity to thank her, but I can't trust those PMCs. Their level is very average." Tang Ji personally verified that the security personnel are better than the street boys in Night City.
"Their main force used to be in the Persian region and fought against the armed forces of the Petrochemical Alliance. In recent years, they began to transfer their power to the Federation." Wu Qianying casually called up the information about Green Wave Lake and showed it to Tang Ji.
"With the complete withdrawal of new energy forces from the Persia region, many large PMC companies cannot survive. You can think of Green Wave Lake as a tentacle for them to explore new markets."
"I just hope it can protect you." Tang Ji glanced at Wu Qianying for the last time: "Before going to find that super human, I will first solve the problem of Night City."
"Leave professional matters to professionals. This is your field. You have the final say. I only provide general directions." Wu Qianying looked at her watch: "It's almost time for An Ran to wake up, so I won't disturb you.
It’s family time, don’t make him too excited, his heart rate has been a bit fast recently.”
...
...
Tang Ji looked at the frail figure held in the nanny's arms through the glass. Compared with last time, the baby had lost a lot of weight, but the big eyes were still full of vitality, and seemed not to be affected by the disease at all.
Tang Anran twisted a few times in the nanny's arms and turned his face towards Tang Ji, with saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth, looking very happy.
The Q-like Tangji doll made by the witch was held in An Ran's hand, with many teeth marks on its face.
Children at this age have already begun to grow teeth, and the itching caused by the growth of teeth will drive children to chew everything within reach.
According to Wu Qianying, Tang Anran is already a 'gentleman' in this regard. Of course, this may also be related to his somewhat delayed growth and development.
Tang Anran has not shown any symptoms of malnutrition until now, and he relies entirely on money. His monthly nutritional expenses are enough to feed ten families of three.
Tang Ji didn't care about money, but he was still grateful for the blessing of fate. He didn't dare to think about where things would have developed if there hadn't been a prophet secretly taking care of him.
The existence of players and the shocking plans mentioned by Wu Qianying emerged in Tang Ji's mind one by one. That was not the future he wanted for Tang Anran, but he seemed to have no choice.
Perhaps sensing Tang Ji's heaviness, Tang Anran patted the glass hard, pressed the doll on the glass, and showed it to Tang Ji like a treasure.
The baby shook the doll in his hand with a look of surprise on his face, seeming to show off that it looked exactly like Tang Ji.
"Do you like it?" Tang Ji was amused by An Ran and interacted with him through the glass, while the nanny holding Tang Anran looked at Tang Ji carefully.
She signed many confidentiality agreements and many unequal treaties in exchange for this high-paying job. In order to ensure Tang Anran's safety and confidentiality, she will not leave this laboratory in the next six months.
.
In fact, if she were not worried that long-term imprisonment would cause the nanny to be physically and mentally unhealthy, Wu Qianying would be happy to sign a one-year or even two-year contract at once, but this would be neither good for the children nor the nanny.
But even with such strict protection, the nanny, who is no longer young, was still penetrated.
The nanny named Leora Granger is a violinist from the Royal College of Art and a mother of three children. She has a gentle personality and a wealth of knowledge.
If her husband's investment had not failed and the family was in deep debt, she should have taken care of her children at home and watched them grow up, instead of being locked up in a dark laboratory here and working with machines all day long.
But Leola didn't have many negative emotions. She had already been mentally prepared for the special nature of this job when she signed the high-paying employment contract.
In addition to taking care of the poor baby, Leola has been reducing her presence, especially every time the child meets its father.
From the first meeting, this smart woman realized that the father of her child was not an ordinary person, and he had an evil spirit in him that ordinary people did not have.
Leola didn't want to cause trouble for herself, and she even hoped to avoid meeting the father of her child if possible.
But for several nights in a row recently, Leola would have dreams at night, and there was always a blurry face in her dreams that she couldn't see clearly.
For some reason, she subconsciously concluded that the figure belonged to the child's father. This strange vagueness gave her an impulse to take a closer look at Tang Ji's face.
This time, she finally got her wish. At that moment, her eyes suddenly became charming, and she whispered in a voice that only she could hear clearly: "I caught you..."
