It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

I'm going to have a meal first. The remaining two chapters will be posted in the afternoon. I said five chapters will be posted this afternoon.

Chapter 82: Your fiancée is committing a crime right now? (First order please!)

Time quickly arrived at the day of the press conference.

It was seven o'clock in the evening, and the originally deserted District 19 was now bustling with activity.

Inside the banquet hall, the atmosphere of the cocktail party was lively, with celebrities from all walks of life gathered together, enthusiastically discussing the details of the press conference.

The press conference included a live demonstration session, which was enough to dispel the previous rumors on the Internet.

And this chip named "Twin" also shocked them.

With just a simple implant, or even directly through brain-computer plug-in, the abilities of the "Upgrader" can be greatly enhanced instantly - punching power doubled, running speed increased... Compared with previous methods of exercise or medication, it is no exaggeration to say that this is an epoch-making change.

Although it is currently only effective for "upgraders" below level B, this group of people makes up the largest proportion of the "upgraders" in Night Sin City.

You can imagine how much value is hidden behind it... To put it bluntly, even if you use this thing to move bricks, you can earn more than others, right? Not to mention those deeper and broader uses.

The last time I saw such a shocking invention was probably more than a decade ago, when it was the potion called "Hengwo" that could forcibly increase the level of superpowers. Interestingly, it was also developed jointly by "Snake Ring" and "Prism".

The heads of the two consortiums at that time, Xu Cheng and Xie Xian, also held a press conference together... At this moment, it is just like that moment.

This also seems to send out another signal - everyone actually knows that since the change of leadership between "Snake Ring" and "Prism", there has been some disunity between them.

But now they have worked together to develop such a product. Should we say that this is the beginning of the two parties joining forces again?

Wow, tsk tsk tsk, this is incredible... Under such circumstances, Xu Shi and Xie Qingyan naturally became the biggest focus of the party. From the beginning to now, there has been a constant stream of people surrounding them.

Some came to show goodwill, some discussed investment, some pre-ordered chips, with all kinds of intentions.

In any case, it's definitely a good idea to take this opportunity to get closer to her first.

Compared to Xie Qingyan, Xu Shi seemed to receive more attention - mainly because many people had not yet experienced his little shock and still looked at him with old eyes.

Under such circumstances, his calmness and ease at the press conference was quite surprising.

Of course, there were other reasons... such as the female companion he brought with him.

Who is this girl? She looks cute but seems a little uneducated - since the cocktail party started, she has been enjoying snacks in her left hand and champagne in her right hand, with her cheeks bulging... Are snacks at the cocktail party meant to be eaten?

"That's enough, can you at least take it easy?"

Xu Shi was a little speechless about this. After chatting with the "imaginary" young boss, he took some time off and immediately gave her two slaps on the face.

Good boy, are you relaxed now? When we came here, you kept saying I was scared in the car. How could I be so nervous? I asked you to eat it with the cake, right?

"I'm hungry..."

Gu Yi swallowed the snack with great effort and said aggrievedly, "I don't dare to interrupt you when you are chatting with others, so what's wrong with eating a little..."

It can be seen that even though she had cram school for the relevant knowledge before coming here, when it really came to the practical stage, Miss Black Rabbit still felt a little uncomfortable facing all these aspects.

"...Okay, as long as you are happy."

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Xu Shi smiled helplessly and said, "Eat it, eat it. To be honest, it doesn't matter."

With his tacit consent, Gu Yi took two more plates of small cakes and started showing off.

But even though she was eating, she didn't forget her business. "By the way, the guy you asked me to watch before who was trying to break through the firewall, his attack strength was obviously much stronger today."

“…Can it be solved?”

Xu Shi was stunned, but apart from confirming it, he was not too surprised - he knew who it was without thinking, it was Zhang Shinian, Shen He's subordinate.

"Don't worry, judging by the technique, it should be the "Nightmare" on the list."

Miss Black Rabbit didn't think so. She also guessed who the other party was. "He has some skills, but he is only slightly stronger than "Deep Sea". In essence, he is still garbage."

"I just don't know how Director Xu wants me to operate. Let me go or set a trap? Track the location or fight back?"

Seeing her excited face, Xu Shi was full of amazement.

Good job, little black rabbit, you’re getting better and better.

If no one takes care of this girl, she will really turn into a little witch... But he likes it, this is how a female villain cadre should behave.

"Just do as I told you before."

So he just gave a simple explanation, saying that everything had been arranged long ago and he was just waiting for them to fall into the trap one by one.

At the same time, Xie Qingyan's voice came from behind.

"Didn't you bring Director Su with you today?"

Today she was wearing a black dress, looking calm and graceful. "I have never seen this person before. Would you like to introduce her?"

"Our group's cybersecurity director, Ms. Gu Yi."

Xu Shi grinned and patted Gu Yi on the waist, "Why don't you say hello to Director Xie?"

Here we go again, have you become a habit of being clumsy? Keep your dirty hands away!

Miss Black Rabbit glared at him resentfully, then put down the cake in her hand and greeted Xie Qingyan in a low voice, "Mr. Xie."

!

Xie Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.

——Isn't this the little ■■ who was panting when answering the phone earlier? !

Xu Shi, what the hell do you mean by bringing her here?

You are committing a crime against your fiancée, right? I am a fool!

"Haha, it turns out to be Miss Gu."

She was a little angry at once, but she could only suppress her anger and smiled awkwardly, "I heard Director Xu mention it before. I asked you to help us solve some technical problems someday."

"Uh...can I?"

Miss Black Rabbit looked at Xu Shi innocently, asking for his opinion.

This was not an act, she really had forgotten about it... She didn't think about it for a moment and just thought that Xu the bastard's fiancée was a very beautiful older sister.

"If Mr. Xie needs you, just go when he calls you."

Xu Shi didn't stop her. After all, she was the one who hacked into the system. Her goal had already been achieved. It didn't matter whether she went or not.

As for whether he came here on purpose to disgust people...to be honest, he really had no choice but Gu Yi.

But looking at it this way, it does seem like there's a bit of bad taste in it, huh?

happy.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about business."

Xie Qingyan tried to calm down. "Now it seems that the chip's performance is better than I thought... As expected, it was right to cooperate with you."

"It's just mutual efforts. This is not just my achievement."

Xu Shi said politely, "To be honest, I have to thank you for letting Miss Ye come to help."

"Really? I'm afraid you've bullied her a lot?"

Xie Qingyan curled the corner of her mouth. This was not considered as an accusation, after all, Ye Shanshan did not take the initiative to complain to her... But seeing that she had noticed that something was wrong, it was a good opportunity to mention it. Xu Shi, don't go too far.

"Ok?"

Xu Shichang always played dumb, "Did I bully you, Miss Ye?"

"...No, Mr. Xie. Mr. Xu is very nice to me."

Ye Shanshan was stunned when she heard this, and then said so.

Xie Qingyan was dumbfounded.

Ye Shanshan, which side are you from?! Is this the time to smooth things over?

What are you doing... Xu Shi spread his hands innocently at this time and said, "Look, that's what I said."

"...Okay, that's good."

What else could Xie Qingyan say? He just curled his lips and left with an excuse.

"Thank you, Mr...."

Ye Shanshan, wearing a small black suit, hurriedly followed.

"what's wrong with you?"

"I...anyway, the situation is not what you think."

Ye Shanshan was actually quite confused. She originally wanted to say ■■ first and then ■■... Why did her words change when they came to her lips?

She didn't know how to explain it.

"Don't expect me to take care of you anymore."

Xie Qingyan rolled his eyes at her, "I've been worrying about you for nothing... Forget it, have you finished what I asked you to do before?"

"Yes, everything has been arranged according to your instructions."

The little curly-haired boy nodded hurriedly.

"That's fine."

Xie Qingyan finally felt a little better. It was too uncomfortable to be defeated by Xu Shi again and again... Fortunately, she knew early on that Xu Shi must have some extra plans today, so she certainly couldn't let him get away with it.

Still want to eat alone in Sin City? I'll let you eat as much as you want!

Chapter 83 The drama begins! (Please order first!)

In the blink of an eye, the cocktail party was halfway over.

After easily resolving the little incident with his fiancée, Xu Shi started competing with another person.

Actually, this is not quite appropriate. After all, Tang Shuang was much more polite today than usual, and her tone was soft and gentle. She was like a completely different person from her usual self.

She has to be soft, because she needs help from others.

As the director of the Inspection Bureau, she was naturally qualified to attend this banquet. As she was in charge of the front-line combat department of Night Sin City, she attached more importance to the meaning and value of "twins" than others.

So of course she had to find Xu Shi to discuss the pre-order issue - if the Inspection Bureau could be equipped with this chip, the strength of the bureau would be greatly enhanced.

But when it came time to really talk about it, she realized that she was actually quite unsure.

The main reason was that I had never gotten anything good from him, and the unpleasantness when we first met had led to a strained relationship between them... If I took the initiative to ask him for help, I didn't know how he would handle it.

You'd better be careful, so as not to leave any handle behind.

But what she didn't expect was that Xu Shi was also very easy to talk to today.

"Pre-order? No problem."

He agreed without hesitation, "When the chips go into mass production, I guarantee you'll be able to get the first batch."

"……real?"

Hearing him say this, Tang Shuang began to wonder if there was something wrong with his ears.

When did this guy become so easy to talk to? Especially to me?

"How can this be false? Director Tang just needs to confirm the number and demand."

Xu Shi laughed dumbly, "This can be considered as my contribution to the security of Night City... I can even give you a preferential price, but don't tell anyone else."

"...If that's the case, then I have to thank Chairman Xu very much."

Tang Shuang was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and nodded seriously. While he was relieved, he was also a little confused.

It was a good thing, but he agreed so readily that she wondered if he had something else up his sleeve.

I hope this is just my malicious speculation?

"There's nothing to thank for. It's just a deal."
