The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

It's just a matter of how much.

To be honest, Arasaka is also a state-owned enterprise.

Besides, as a company, Kangtao is quite strong, but the internal treatment is a bit hard to describe.

The salary and treatment of Kangtao's internal employees may be in the middle and lower range among all large companies of the same size.

After all, too high a salary is not conducive to the struggle of young people at home and abroad.

As for Kangtao's much-publicized "gold member of the trauma team for 50 years of work"... it does exist, but they hid the additional terms.

Let's not talk about whether the average age of people in this rotten world is 50 years old.

The loss of work wages alone is terrifying.

For example, if an employee works for a full year, but is accidentally killed in a street fight in the second year, then you have to pay the loss of work wages for the next 49 years, right?

No?

Don't you still have an inheritance?

Still can't pay?

Don't you still have family?

Moreover, the words such as malicious salary increase, malicious salary demand, malicious price reduction, and adjustment of holidays and voluntary overtime were introduced from Kangtao several decades ago.

Even the former president of Kangtao proposed a proposal for talent mobility - that is, when the next company recruits employees from Kangtao, it will pay Kangtao a training fee.

But in the end, other companies ignored him.

All these operations opened the eyes of a group of foreign investors and made them call them experts, and also made everyone start a strange competitive spirit.

By the way, there are no capitalists in Kangtao, only conscientious entrepreneurs...

The topic has gone a bit far.

In short, Lai Xuan is very sure that his raid on the Night City branch has failed.

But the weirdness is just here.

As a loser, is his treatment a bit too good?

Except that his range of activities is limited to the Blue Bi Building and he cannot go out at will, other things don’t seem to be affected too much... It’s much more comfortable than when he was in Japan.

Even his good father didn’t ask about this matter.

The private guards who followed him in the rebellion were only placed under house arrest - most of them were descendants of his gang Iron Dragon partners.

Although it was a good thing that he was not liquidated, and even Adam Hammer, who was the most seriously injured, survived, but...

Strange.

Very strange.

The whole thing revealed a "strange" word from beginning to end.

"... Wait and have hope?"

Lai Xuan had naturally read the book "The Count of Monte Cristo".

And this is all he has done in his decades of life - waiting for the opportunity, and never giving up because of a temporary failure.

Recalling the last picture he saw before his memory was interrupted and he saw the ceiling of the room in the Blue Building.

But he had a feeling that perhaps the current situation that was favorable to him was inseparable from the other party.

Thinking of this, Lai Xuan suddenly felt touched in his heart: Maybe that golden weirdo who looked like a hairy crab understood me.

"Lord Lai Xuan, the person you called has arrived."

At this moment, the bodyguard who was responsible for guarding him at the door came in and reported to him.

Nodding, he put the cryogenic storage box containing the relic chip back into the secret compartment in the room.

After a while, a woman with short blue hair, dressed gorgeously, wearing a coat on the outside, but revealing clothes inside, walked in.

Evelyn Parker.

An excellent female masseuse who specializes in solving the problem of swollen head for men, and is also the takeaway he ordered.

Since nothing can be done at the moment, just pretend to be a rich second generation like before.

Wait and have hope... It's the same to wait in bed, and it's also hope!

…

On the other side

While Lai Xuan's Blue Building was doing things that sounded the same as the building's name, Arasaka was also dealing with the mess left by this young master.

First of all, the employees under him will take a paid vacation for a week-there is no problem with this.

Arasaka is such a big company, it is not necessary to lower its own value for such a small matter.

As long as the shifts are arranged, one person can do the work of three people, and then use the advanced adjustment system brought by Kang Tao.

The more troublesome thing is the reconstruction of the internal facilities...

The other floors are fine, but the bottom floor is obviously not something that can be cleaned up in a short time.

Although the circuit inside was not damaged, Lin Qiao still moved the simulated Chimera Box to the power plant on the outskirts of Night City - it was newly built by Arasaka.

On the surface, it was to compete with Kang Tao for the power supply rights to Night City, but in fact it was to charge the Chimera Box... so the loss didn't matter.

And considering the next steps, it was still a big deal.

As for Lai Xuan's rebellion... Arasaka Saburo just left a "verbal order" to visit Night City next week, and then handed over the matter to Lin Qiao.

However, just when everyone in the city was curious about "what tricks Arasaka is doing again", Lin Qiao received a contact from Lucy.

It was a very unexpected one.

"What? You said you and Sasha met another guy? And you took him down?"

Although he had no emotions, his brain still couldn't react... or he was just confused.

"...No, are you sure you two caught the person I said, a time traveler from another world like me, and not some street thug?"

After getting a very positive answer from the two, Lin Qiao hung up the phone and sat silently in the office chair that originally belonged to Abernathy.

The system's prompt sound did not sound, and the distance restriction was not lifted. There was still only a little time left before he returned...

So what on earth did you two catch?

Chapter 368 Welcome to Night City, Ciri

"Bitch! If you want to die, go to Taipingzhou! I don't want to pay a fine for you!"

On the streets of Westbrook, a driver was cursing at a white-haired girl who tried to cross the road.

Looking at the white-haired girl who was apologizing and dressed a little strangely on the opposite side, the driver was furious.

But because there were still things to do, he finally spit and drove away.

"Alas, this world is so strange... There is no horse in the carriage..."

Looking at the taillights of the car going away, the white-haired girl with a scar under her left eye muttered a few words, and continued to walk aimlessly on the sidewalk under the gazes of others.

Even in Night City, where there are many strange costumes and all kinds of crazy people, her dress is unique.

Just like a medieval swordswoman from Mewtwo, long leather boots, leather pants, leather gloves, long white hair tied at the back of her head, and black eyeshadow adds a lot of charm to her.

An exquisite long sword is carried on her back, and there are multiple leather pockets and a dagger hanging on the belt around her waist.

More importantly, there is no nerve insertion slot on her exposed skin.

This is rare.

The girl's unique look attracted a lot of people's attention.

But people just took a glance and didn't care anymore.

Dressing like this is probably to cater to the preferences of some rich people...

Fuck!

I want to play too!

But just as people are surprised by the girl's dress, the girl is also curious about everything here.

"It seems that there are only humans in this world, and there are these statues... Is this the method of the wizard?"

Following the crowd across the road, Ciri kept looking around at the surrounding scenery.

Whether it was the advertisements on the street or the iron carriage without horses that almost hit her just now, they were all things she had never seen in her original world.

To be honest, compared to the skyscrapers that were dozens of meters high everywhere here, the world she lived in before could be said to be small and shabby.

The only place that could be comparable was probably the capital of the Elves of Ain El, but the two were completely different styles.

The magic in this world... well, let's just call it magic for now.

The magic was so advanced that it even landed on a planet that seemed to be called the moon. I think the people living in this world must be very happy.

But then she shook her head and sighed: "But what should I do today?"

She reached out to touch the leather bag on her waist, where there were a few gold coins that Ciri had obtained from other worlds.

This was also her only asset.

But after staying here for about three or four hours and observing the living habits of the residents here, she found out sadly that the people here didn't seem to use gold or silver coins to trade.

Instead, they used some kind of transaction method that she couldn't understand... like a stroke in the void or something.

Or a piece of paper with numbers written on it?

In short, this world was too different from the world she had lived in before, or even the world she had accidentally visited through her own abilities.

In this regard, it would be better to teleport her to the wilderness.

At least then the knowledge of survival as a demon hunter learned in Kaer Morhen could still come in handy.

She looked around at the people around her looking at her, and punched a thug who wanted to take advantage of her.

Ciri felt that she should first find a way to integrate into the local community.

For example, change her clothes.

...Then she thought of the fact that she had no money, and then sighed helplessly.

In order to avoid sleeping on the streets and starving, before that, she could only find a way to make some money in this world.

After all, she was not particularly familiar with her abilities, and she might have to stay for a while before she could leave.

"Let's go to the bar first."

Based on her past life experience, Ciri made such a judgment.

Bars are messy places, but it is still quite useful to ask for information in the newspaper... I hope this world is the same.

After asking a few passers-by, she came to the largest bar in Westbrook.

Because she was thought to be serving a big shot, the Tiger Claws at the door did not stop her from entering.

She found a place near the corner and sat there like a little transparent.

Although it was still daytime, Westbrook, as a tourist attraction in Night City, has many people coming here to have fun.

As expected at the beginning, she did understand a lot of things from the people who vented their emotions over alcohol... Although she didn't understand what these people were saying most of the time.

But after a long time, at least the most basic situation can still be understood.

For example, this world is not as peaceful as she thought, and organizations like the Chamber of Commerce rule the world.

"Hey, girl, you've been sitting here for a long time, what's wrong? The person you're waiting for didn't come?"

Several people from the Tiger Claws surrounded her with ill intentions.

They had been paying attention to Ciri for a long time - there was no way she wouldn't attract attention in her medieval swordswoman outfit.

Anyway, she sat in the corner for a long time without saying anything. The receptionist asked, "You haven't even ordered a drink in such a long time... What are you doing here?"

The strange behavior made several members of the Tiger Claw Gang, who were used to the chaos of Night City, think that this was the prelude of some mercenaries coming to cause trouble.

And when you get closer, you can see that this woman is still very smooth, but the scar on her face is a bit regrettable... But she also has a unique charm.
