The Giant Corporations that Started in Night City

Chapter 174 Do You Know Who I Am? My Name Is V!

Before the event officially ends tonight, there will be a new Mewtwo art performance from Night City superstar Lizzie Weisz.

Under normal circumstances, Hansen will most likely wait until the art performance is over and the guests leave the Gem Blue before asking Aurore and Emeric to inspect the AI ​​neural matrix device.

But to be on the safe side, Alex and V must be prepared in advance. If Hansen deliberately asks them to inspect the goods during the performance, it will be troublesome.

Because the action plan arranged by Li De was too time-consuming, V has only received information about Emeric until now.

It records Emeric's main deeds, hobbies, taboos and other key information.

V must remember this information firmly before meeting Hansen, so as not to reveal flaws in front of Hansen.

While there is still time, V can just write these things down.

"Now you are responsible for writing down these contents, but don't make any mistakes. A suspicious person like Hansen will definitely test you when the time comes."

"Don't be nervous, there are only so many things to remember, but you must use this information flexibly and can't be too rigid."

"Just say it as you should, and relax as much as possible."

Alex said in a serious tone and serious expression. She had suffered a big loss in this regard and almost lost her life.

If it weren't for Li De personally leading the team and risking his life to rescue her, Alex's body would probably be eaten clean by wild dogs at this moment.

So Alex, who had a previous experience, was particularly cautious in terms of information, fearing that V would repeat her mistakes.

"Okay."

V nodded. He certainly didn't dare to be careless about this matter. He immediately returned to his seat at the gambling table and recited the detailed identity information about Aymeric silently.

Alex, who replaced Aurora, pretended to be Aurora's lively and charming tone and continued to chat with other gamblers and dealers.

It must be said that Alex is indeed gifted in acting.

The casino dealers who had been secretly observing her, as well as the nearby Hellhound soldiers, did not realize that Aurora in front of them had already changed.

Not long after, the super dream art performance of Night City star Lizzie Weisz officially began.

The guests around also gathered and stopped under the stage to enjoy this special artistic performance.

When the lights in the dance floor of the hall were turned off, Lizzie, who was glowing all over, danced gorgeously and elegantly like a gorgeous butterfly, and everyone was attracted by this artistic scene.

Including Alex.

She dreamed that one day she would appear on such a stage, dancing gracefully and selflessly, and getting the attention and appreciation of all the audience.

V, on the other hand, was indifferent, just silently memorizing the information about Emeric and Aurore.

Just when Alex was fascinated by the show, Hansen's lackey, Gago, had come with a team of fully armed Nether Dog soldiers.

"Aurore, Emeric, Mr. Hansen didn't ask you to come here for a vacation, you should go to work now."

Gago looked at V and Alex with an uncomfortable expression, because according to the previous agreement, they should have gone to inspect the equipment before the show started.

Instead of standing there like this, watching some bullshit art performance.

"What's the hurry? If you put the things there, it's hard to believe that it will grow legs and run away. My brother and I came all the way here, and it won't take us long to watch the show."

Alex said in a reproachful tone, but she stood up honestly and decided to leave here with Gago and his group.

"After this job is done, you will have plenty of time to watch this kind of show."

Alex's reaction did not let Gago notice anything wrong. Perhaps it was really because the European hackers had forgotten the time in order to watch the show.

Soon, Gago, who was in charge of leading the way, led V and Alex to a dark room similar to a warehouse.

There, Hansen was communicating with Song Zhaomei. When she saw Alex and V pretending to be Aurore and Emeric, Song Zhaomei was stunned.

She didn't expect that V and Li De's plan would really work!

Although Song Zhaomei's artificial eye device could not directly see through V's mimicry disguise, she could locate V's position through the Relic chip.

At this moment, V was standing in front of her, but his appearance had become Emeric.

"Song Zhaomei, you're lucky. It seems that the European hacker pair is not lost. You can start accepting the device you want now."

After seeing Gago bring the people back, Hansen was relieved. When he realized that Aurore and Emeric did not come as scheduled, he thought something had happened.

After all, his spy received news outside that Miles had sent a team of professional agents to infiltrate Baoshiqing and planned to cause some damage.

Fortunately, the agents of the United Intelligence Agency did not come to cause trouble, and the two European hackers are still safe, at least for now.

"Wait here for a while, I'll go over and talk to them."

After the words fell, Hansen walked towards V with his hands behind his back. With a chilling grin on his face, he said to V and Alex:

"How is it, are you two having fun in my Sapphire Blue Club? You have lost even the most basic sense of time."

"Since you two like playing in Sapphire Blue so much, why don't you stay and work for me."

"I promise that I can give you a salary that will not be much worse than your company."

Hansen's words not only gave the hackers a warning, but also expressed doubts about their abnormal situation.

He didn't believe that these two people would go to see a show for no reason.

"It's okay. The quality of your guests is quite good. There are actually several celebrities from giant companies. It's really rare."

Alex naturally put himself into Aurore's perspective and told Hansen briefly about what happened to him when he met V.

After learning that such a thing actually happened, Hansen glanced at Gago on the side, secretly asking him if it was true.

The person who had been watching Aurore and Emeric in the gambling table area before was the Nether Dog soldier under Gago.

According to the report of the surveillance soldiers, Gago knew that such a thing really happened, so he nodded to Hansen, indicating that what Alex said was true.

"Hehe, Gem Blue is the result of my years of hard work in Dog Town, and the big shots in Night City will give me this face."

"It's not surprising that you can meet people from LA Company here."

After that, Hansen took V and Alex to the rest area and asked his subordinates to open a bottle of vodka.

He reluctantly believed Alex's words.

Seeing V who remained silent throughout the whole process, Hansen habitually probed him again. He stared at V intently and smiled:

"Mr. Emerick, you are now the top technical staff of World Communications Satellite Company. It is not easy to get this position."

"Have you been doing this job since you entered the industry, or did you switch from another company?"

The reason why Hansen asked this was to test the other party's true identity. He was always cautious about everything, including this acceptance matrix device.

What if this guy is a fake and stole his AI neural matrix device, it would be a big loss!

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared, ask when you should.

Faced with Hansen's sudden attack, V, who had already memorized Aymeric's background information, was able to answer fluently:

"I used to work for Petrochemical Company, and later participated in the AI ​​neural matrix research project of the European Community Alliance. After that, I left the laboratory and joined the World Communications Satellite Company."

"It can't be said that I changed jobs."

"People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. It's normal to have worked in multiple companies."

V's answer was no different from the information Hansen got, but Hansen's suspicion did not disappear so easily.

Because V's answer was too perfect, as if it had been rehearsed in advance, which made Hansen feel a strange feeling that he couldn't explain.

Then, Hansen continued to ask tentatively:

"Emerick, as an outstanding hacker talent like you, Petrochemical Company is reluctant to let you go. How did you buy out your contract?"

"As far as I know, the employee contracts signed by companies nowadays are basically lifelong, especially for technical personnel."

"If you want to buy yourself a free body, it will cost a lot of money."

Hansen's question was quite insidious, because as far as he knew, Emerick's memory had been missing for two years.

This means that he completely forgot his experience when he was employed by Petrochemical Company, which also means that Emerick didn't know how he left the company at all.

More importantly, although Emerick publicized that his memory data was lost due to a data leak in the memory bank.

But in fact, the reason for Emerick's memory loss was that he was accidentally infected by some complex AI in the process of capturing the roving AI.

Even the most advanced AI neurosurgery in Europe at that time could only choose to remove part of Emerick's memory and the infected brain area.

For such top-secret information, besides Aymeric himself, only his sister Auror and the executives of World Satellite Company knew it.

Coincidentally, Hansen had pried this information out of Auror yesterday. Aymeric was not there at the time, so he didn't know that Hansen had already known his secret.

And now, Hansen was planning to use this question to bluff the other party to see if V was really the real deal.

Just as V was about to answer Hansen according to the answer shown in the information that his memory was lost because it was leaked by the bank, Johnny suddenly spoke in V's mind:

[V, this guy is bluffing you. I guess he doesn't know the answer to this question. Instead of making up an answer full of loopholes, it's better to say that he doesn't know. ]

[Believe me, I have been in the army for a long time, and I know more about the bluffing methods of old guns like Hansen than anyone else. ]

Johnny's sudden suggestion interrupted V's train of thought. Facing Hansen's increasingly gloomy eyes, V knew that he had to give an answer as soon as possible.

Immediately, after a brief hesitation, V shrugged his shoulders pretending to be relaxed and responded:

"Honestly, I don't know."

"I had some accidents, which caused me to not remember clearly some of the previous things. As for what exactly happened, I can't tell you more."

Hearing that V's answer was similar to the information he knew, Hansen felt a little relieved and took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for V.

"Okay, let's proceed as we agreed. One of you will accompany Song Zhaomei to inspect the goods, and the other will stay and chat with me."

When Hansen said this, his eyes never left V. It was obvious that he wanted V to stay and chat with him.

In Hansen's opinion, by asking Auroer to accompany Song Zhaomei to inspect the goods, even if something unexpected happened, he would be able to control Aymeric, the most powerful hacker, immediately.

As for Aoluor and Song Zhaomei, these two little girls who have no power to restrain a chicken are not worth mentioning at all.

However, what Hansen never expected was that he kept the most dangerous person V by his side!

"I'm tired from playing today, so let Aurore go check the device. I'll stay here to rest."

"By the way, I'll have a good chat with Mr. Hansen about the future of Dog Town."

V could see Hansen's inner thoughts at a glance, so he simply offered to stay here and let Alex cooperate with Song Zhaomei.

As soon as Song Zhaomei succeeds, V will immediately strike first and kill Hansen, the warlord leader of Dog Town!

"Very good. I'll ask Ms. Ao Luoer to help me keep an eye on Song Zhaomei. She's not an easy-going person. Be careful of her plotting against you."

Hansen smiled with satisfaction. He liked the feeling of being in control of the situation at all times. With so many Nether Dog soldiers around, Song Zhaomei didn't dare to play any tricks in front of him.

"Okay, let's do it then. I really envy my idle brother who can still sit here and chat leisurely."

Auroer deliberately showed a reluctant look. After putting on a show in front of Hansen, she took Song Zhaomei over to inspect the AI ​​neural matrix device.

While V continued to stay in the rest area, trying to make ends meet with Hansen, Li De, who had finally disposed of the bodies of Aurore and Aymeric, had quietly walked in.

After seeing clearly the positions of V and Alex, Li De immediately issued instructions to Alex through the encrypted voice conversation device:

[Alex, after Song Zhaomei takes away the core device of the AI ​​neural matrix, immediately release the icebreaking program. This is our only chance to take her away! 】

[Make your movements as crisp and sharp as possible, don’t give Song Zhaomei a chance to counterattack, remember. 】

The icebreaker program Li De mentioned is a special virus that can restrict hackers from connecting to cyberspace and cause the other party to lose most of their hacking skills instantly.

Once this kind of program is uploaded and infected on Song Zhaomei, she will become a lamb without the ability to resist, with nothing to show for her abilities.

Unless you rely on the corresponding cracking program to unlock it, or use a more advanced program to forcibly crack it.

But with Song Zhaomei's current resources, what powerful program would she have that could forcibly break their ice-breaking program?

Alex didn't speak. After a series of complex ideological battles, she finally chose to follow Li De's instructions.

Although Alex doesn't want to be an enemy of Song Zhaomei, this is indeed the only way to save Song Zhaomei at the moment, and she has to do it even if she doesn't want to do it.

"Now it's your turn to enter your access code."

At this time, Song Zhaomei was completely unaware of Alex's premeditated plan.

She also didn't expect that Li De had only one idea from the beginning to the end, and that was to bring her to Miles.

"Xiao Song, are you excited?"

Alex looked up at Song Zhaomei.

"I can't say I'm excited, but I'm happy."

Song Zhaomei's attention is all on the AI ​​neural matrix device. As long as the core device inside is taken out, everything will be over!

"Okay, I'll start entering the access code now."

Alex dealt with Song Zhaomei aloud, pressed the four-digit access code, and secretly started the icebreaker program to start uploading the virus to Song Zhaomei's system.

Click!

With a start-up sound, the safe containing the core of the matrix equipment was opened, and Song Zhaomei finally saw the device that she had longed for.

After confirming that the core device was genuine, Song Zhaomei sent a message to V.

[V, you can start now! 】

'receive. ’

At this moment, Hansen, who was standing not far behind Alex, was concentrating on her and Song Zhaomei's movements, completely unaware that death had come!

"Hansen, do you know who I am."

At this time, V's abrupt words made Hansen suddenly become more vigilant.

The shocked reaction made his heartbeat seem to have missed half a beat, and Hansen subconsciously made a move to retreat.

But it was too late. Under Hansen's horrified gaze, V's arms instantly shot out sharp mantis knives, and a cold light passed by his lower jaw.

The next second, Hansen's Tianling Gai was pierced by the tip of the knife.

V's movements were so fast that Hansen had no time to make any resistance. When he felt the pain coming from his brain, V's voice also fell:

"Remember, my name is V!"

After saying that, V exerted force with his arms, and the strong power of his arms drove the sharp mantis knife, tearing Hansen's brain into two halves in an instant.

The fragmented prosthetic parts and brain blood burst out, and the bloody and horrifying scene made Gago stunned in the first place.

Obviously, he didn't expect that his boss would be killed like this.

After two seconds, he and the surrounding Nether Dog soldiers suddenly reacted and took out their pistols to attack V.

But Li De, who had already ambushed in place, attacked them first.

In an instant, with the exquisite cooperation of Li De and V, the soldiers in this dark room were either shot through the brain by bullets or cut into pieces by V's mantis knife.

The battle was over less than two minutes after it started!
