Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

Chapter 33 Confrontation

Early in the morning.

Tang Yu has arrived at the office of his old boss Arthur Jenkins, followed by his subordinate Carter Smith.

Jenkins's high-end suit is still meticulous, reflecting the authority and momentum of the company's senior leadership. He is sitting on a large leather chair and talking on the phone to handle official business.

Tang Yu sat across from the electronic office desk, while Carter stood aside waiting for instructions from his superiors.

Jenkins smiled, responding to the request on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, okay, I know about this matter, and I will help you deal with it."

"No problem, we'll make an appointment to play golf on the weekend."

After hanging up the phone, Jenkins quickly stopped smiling.

"I can get hundreds of people asking me to clean up the mess a day!"

Tang Yu was not interested in his superiors' personal affairs and didn't want to ask more questions, so he kept the silence he deserved.

Jenkins vented a few words, then turned his attention to his eyes and asked about the uprising with concern.

"You said last night that there was an update on the prosthetic body. What are your plans tonight?"

Tang Yu told Jenkins truthfully.

"I have asked Carter to pursue this matter. He knows better than me. It would be better to let Carter explain it to you."

Jenkins looked up at Carter, then leaned back in his chair and nodded slightly.

"you say."

As the deputy leader of the department, Carter belongs to the G4 level and rarely has the opportunity to report to Jenkins, the M10 level.

Carter is now in a luxurious, dark and huge office, and his guilty conscience seems to be infinitely magnified and about to swallow him up.

He could hardly look directly at Jenkins, and he couldn't even think about the consequences of deceiving the minister. This was the real sense of oppression coming from Arasaka's senior management to the lower-level employees!

Carter swallowed and finished explaining his findings in a stammering and vague manner, keeping his head down throughout the process and not daring to look directly.

Jenkins said nothing while listening to the report. He just frowned more and more. He supported his chin with one hand and tapped his index finger slowly.

Carter was extremely nervous and finally said the last sentence.

"I, I have finished reporting, the general situation should be like this"

Jenkins waved his hand impatiently, indicating that he could leave the office.

But Carter, who kept his head down, didn't see Jenkins' gesture at all, and still stood there wondering if there were any flaws in the report just now.

Tang Yu reminded: "Carter Smith, you go back to work first."

As if Carter had received amnesty, he turned around and left this depressing office as if to flee.

Jenkins' tone was filled with anger: "I can't even speak clearly. I really don't know how many people in the counter-intelligence department can be used now!"

"That stinky Abernathy proposed to appoint a new deputy minister to us at the board meeting, but I rejected it on the spot."

Tang Yu was also a little surprised. He didn't expect Abernathy to start attacking so quickly. If Jenkins later knew that Carter was also secretly colluding with the bad cousin, he would probably explode.

In addition to Carter, there are many people in the counterintelligence department who are involved with the Special Operations Department, mainly because the two departments have cooperated on many missions, and employees from both sides have relatively frequent exchanges.

The paradox is that Susan Abernathy climbed to the position of director at Arasaka Company like a rocket, and her husband is also a senior executive of Zeta Technology.

Zeta Technology's Sianwestein R\u0026D is its strength, but this is precisely Arasaka's R\u0026D weakness. The two companies have a lot of cooperation in technological R\u0026D.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Jenkins's strength and background are no match for Susan Abernathy, and she was stepped on by her.

Jenkins can only rely on his own abilities to survive. When he has no further use value for Arasaka, he will be directly declared out, which means death.

Tang Yu understood that this matter was of great importance, and couldn't help but become serious, and continued.

"Then she will definitely not give up the offensive point of deputy minister. There is indeed a vacant position of deputy minister in the Counterintelligence Department."

Jenkins agreed with Tang Yu's statement: "But I don't have anyone on hand to make up for it right now, so this prosthetic mission must not fail, otherwise that stinky cousin will definitely bring it up on the board of directors again."

Tang Yu thought that no matter whether the prosthetic body was successful or not, I'm afraid Abernathy would not let go. After all, if a mad dog finally caught a bite, there was no reason not to tear off a mouthful of flesh.

But this matter hasn't happened yet, so Tang Yu gets to the point first: "I already have exact information about the prosthetic body, but the most critical point is not in this matter, but in our department."

Jenkins stared at Tang Yu closely and asked in a deep voice: "You mean there is a spy in the department?"

Tang Yu nodded.

Jenkins sneered and said: "Okay, okay, it's that Carter just now. You brought him here to report just because you wanted to show Abernathy."

Tang Yu nodded again and added.

"Yes, my informant already has accurate information on the specific transaction situation. There will be no small movement tonight."

"The Special Operations Department will definitely take action, but I can't fully explain this to you yet."

After hearing Tang Yu's assurance, Jenkins' expression finally softened and he nodded slightly to express understanding.

He had long known that Tang Yu and Abernathy had a falling out in the elevator that morning, and the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two had spread throughout all departments of Arasaka Tower.

He understood that Tang Yu was promoted by himself, and Tang Yu's attitude represented his attitude, so the differences between the two departments had been put on the company's table.

It is for this reason that the board of directors rejected Susan Abernathy's proposal, considering that arranging people from the Special Operations Department to the Counterintelligence Department would lead to internal fighting and be exploited by other hostile companies, which would pose great security risks.

And the board didn't want the fight to tilt entirely in Susan Abernathy's favor.

Checks and balances are the best option.

Jenkins said in a gentle tone: "You humiliated Abernathy in the elevator. That stinky cousin will definitely not swallow this breath!"

"The current situation is still very dangerous, and the possibility of being assassinated again is very high."

"You drive my private float vehicle for tonight's operation."

"I have never driven this floating car to the company, so no one will recognize it."

Tang Yu also understood that there were indeed risks in today's operation. Even if he thought everything was under control, having an additional floating vehicle would obviously greatly enhance safety and prevent himself and Jack from being in danger with no way out.

Tang Yu took over the aerial vehicle control chip from Jenkins. The aerial vehicle has an intelligent driving system and can be summoned directly when needed. He continued to add.

"To avoid Abernathy becoming suspicious, it was recommended that Carter lead a departmental SWAT team for this operation."

"I will arrange for informants and helpers who are trustworthy and have nothing to do with the company to block their last escape route."

Jenkins decisively agreed to Tang Yu's plans and arrangements, and was always assured of his abilities and methods.

"Everything will go according to your plan. If there are special circumstances, please call immediately. I will prepare another Arasaka elite team to back you up to prevent someone from plotting against you."

The Arasaka Elite Team can definitely be regarded as Arasaka's top combat force, with top-notch weapons and quality.

Jenkins mobilized this team using personal connections, at least involving the M-level top management and president level.

With this guarantee, Tang Yu has made up for the final shortcoming of the entire game.

Next, just wait for the show to begin!

Special thanks to Mr. AnGuo and Mr. Tudi for the huge reward, thank you!
