Chapter 136 Lizzy

Arasaka Tower.

Thirty-third floor counterintelligence department.

Tang Yu had just finished working at his desk for the day. He leaned on his office chair and breathed a sigh of relief, squeezing his eyebrows to relax his tired mood.

Special assistant Sasha, who was sitting not far away, saw that Tang Yu had finished his work and seemed to want to take a break, so he took the initiative to come over.

She picked up the teacup on the table, refilled it with warm water, handed it back to the table, turned around and came to Tang Yu's chair, stretched out her hands, placed her slender fingertips on both sides of his temples, and pressed them gently.

Sasha was already familiar with Tang Yu's habits in all aspects, and knew that he didn't like to sit in the office and deal with all kinds of copywriting.

So whenever Tang Yu takes a rest, she will help him do some soothing activities to relieve stress.

If Tang Yu wanted to chat, she would listen carefully.

With Sasha's service, Tang Yu felt a little relaxed.

He felt a little tired, not because of the heavy workload, but because the work content was really boring.

All matters, large and small, in the counter-intelligence department are waiting to be reported to him and then awaiting approval and processing results.

The reason why the acting minister works so hard is all because of his dedicated and loyal old boss Arthur Jenkins.

When Arthur Jenkins was the head of the Counterintelligence Department, he was almost dominated by powerful and small powers.

In addition, as the deputy minister, he is often away on missions and can hardly help the department.

Arthur Jenkins is also used to doing everything by himself. This working mode leads to one needle pulling thousands of threads.

Without a director, it will be difficult for the Counterintelligence Department to move around. There must be someone who can take charge.

Now that Arthur Jenkins is on a business trip, these tasks naturally fall on Tang Yu.

What's even more troublesome is that there are some tasks that he, as an acting minister, cannot make decisions on the spot. He has to convey the matter to Arthur Jenkins and get his opinion before he can reply to others.

The setter's way of survival is to be caught in the middle. Both ends have to run and ask questions, which inevitably creates a lot of friction.

Whenever this happens, Tang Yu thinks of another deputy minister, Kate.

She is still sitting in the deputy minister's office. She doesn't know what she is busy with. She sits in a dark and closed room with nothing to do all day long. She is probably holding back a shadow in her heart.

He leaned back on the leather chair, closed his eyes to rest, and said in a deep voice.

"Do you think Kate is too busy staring at us all day long?"

When Sasha heard Tang Yu mention the old witch, she suddenly felt unfair.

Although they are both deputy ministers, Kate has nothing to do every day and only seeks trouble for Mr. Tang.

Because of his outstanding ability, Tang Yu had to serve as acting minister. He was extremely busy and had to guard against Kate's little tricks.

Sasha rarely gets angry and seldom looks displeased with anyone, but every time she thinks about Kate, her teeth itch.

But for some reason, although she was well versed in the company's rules, as Tang Yu's special assistant, she was not allowed to offend any company superiors in person.

But Sasha just became dissatisfied with Kate, and it was obvious that some of the rules deeply rooted in her heart were shaken.

"Yeah, Sasha thinks so too."

"According to the relevant information Sasha has learned, these manifestations may also be related to personality, quality, emotional intelligence, and even physiology. To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a disease."

In fact, Tang Yu didn't take Kate seriously at all. Regarding her little tricks and actions, he could only say that she was not good enough and could easily get burned.

Carter Smith, the last Counterintelligence Department employee who played this way, was already seeking his own death.

There are many secrets in Tang Yu, but not everyone is qualified to know them.

Whether it's the Relic chip, Arasaka Yorinobu's true purpose, Arasaka Saburo's plan to resurrect the dead, the internal fighting between the Arasaka family, the conspiracy between Ye's company and AI, or even Ott Cunningham, the god of AI beyond the black wall of cyberspace.

.

If any of these things are leaked casually, everyone who knows about it will be involved in the whirlpool of the storm, and it will be impossible to escape even if they want to.

Kate was completely unaware of the consequences her foolish behavior would bring to her.

but.

Even if a grasshopper jumps in front of you for a long time, it will feel a bit annoying.

Tang Yu decided to arrange some way for Kate to survive, so that she would not be idle all day long and wander around in front of him.

"Yes, people get sick when they are free. I think Kate is too free. So, you ask her to come to the office and I will arrange something for her."

"She doesn't really like fighting with military technology, so let's let her be responsible for countering military technology."

Tang Yu thinks that grasshoppers like Kate can be treated by Aunt Mei.

After receiving Tang Yu's order, Sasha turned her eyes and quickly summoned the front desk to notify Deputy Minister Kate to the minister's office.

It didn't take long.

The door to the minister's office opened from the middle to both sides, and Kate stood expressionlessly at the door to receive the authentication scan.

She started to walk into the office. The red eye prosthesis showed no emotion or anger. She just came to the opposite side of Tang Yu's desk and asked coldly.

"What's up?"

Kate saw Tang Yu sitting back on the office chair, looking leisurely and contented. Special assistant Sasha was standing behind him, relaxing his temples.

This posture doesn't look like it's serious.

Tang Yu still closed his eyes to rest and had no intention of looking at her.

He is a lone wolf in this Arasaka Tower, and even Director Susan Abernathy can't help him.

As for Kate, who was parachuted into the Counterintelligence Department with some connections, she would not take it seriously.

From beginning to end, Kate herself wants to dance here, so why not give her a stage and let her perform well.

Tang Yu enjoyed a moment of relaxation before letting Sasha let go.

He knew that even if Kate was feeling unhappy, she still had to wait here.

because.

This is Arasaka Tower. The most fundamental corporate workplace rule is to obey the orders and arrangements of your superiors.

Although Tang Yu and Kate are both deputy ministers, he is now working as an acting minister. The instructions he issues and the matters he arranges are equivalent to the effectiveness of Arthur Jenkins.

After receiving Tang Yu's signal, Sasha took two steps back and stood obediently behind, silent.

Only then did Tang Yu open his eyes, put one hand on the table, tapped his index finger lightly on the table, pretended to think for a while, and then asked.

"Has the report on the resumption of the investigation been completed?"

Kate's face darkened, and the anger she had been trying to hold back suddenly burst out, even a few veins popped out on her forehead.

She sounded unhappy and replied coldly: "There is no need to investigate this matter. I already know the truth, and there is no point in further investigation."

Kate wants to see if Tang Yu is really that confident. Although there is no evidence now, it does not prevent her from continuing to put pressure.

Tang Yu frowned slightly and sighed: "This is not good. Restarting the investigation report is not asking for your opinion, but the work assigned to you."

"I think your suggestions are very good. You think there are doubts and want to dig out the truth. This spirit of getting to the bottom of things is very consistent with the work needs of the Counterintelligence Department."

"The report will be sent to my mailbox before twelve o'clock tonight. I hope that when I open the mailbox tomorrow morning, your report will be completely in the mailbox. Do you understand?"

Kate gritted her teeth, her face turned a little blue, and her forehead twitched unconsciously.

Sasha saw something was wrong with her expression, and seemed to have the urge to take action. Her eyes gradually turned cold, and the lynx's diamond claws quietly revealed a sharp edge, giving off a little cold light.

Kate swallowed hard, and then replied in a deep voice: "Understood."

She finally understood why Director Susan Abernathy lost her temper in the lobby of Arasaka Tower.

This person in front of me.

His arrogant, domineering and extremely arrogant attitude is enough to make anyone feel crazy and hate him so much that his teeth are numb.

She tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart and the strong hatred to kill the other party.

Tang Yu saw that Kate's face was bruised and purple, and she must have felt uncomfortable in her heart, so he said kindly.

"Mr. Jenkins has been on a business trip since you came to the Counterintelligence Department and has no time to guide you on some of the work in the Department."

"I happen to be free now. I want to talk to you about the situation in the department and arrange the division of labor for you."

Tang Yu paused, seeing that Kate still looked lifeless, and then spoke to emphasize.

"Although you just came here and haven't taken over the work yet, you are usually a little busy at work. I can understand that."

"Looking through old accounts and understanding the recent cases handled by the department will indeed help you quickly integrate into the Counterintelligence Department and adapt to the role of deputy minister."

"However, you still have to keep your sights ahead and strive to accomplish a few more big things, so that your colleagues in the department can admire your abilities from the bottom of their hearts."

"Not to mention anything else, just since I came to work, many subordinates have given me feedback."

"They are worried that your abilities and experience are still lacking. After all, this is not an R&D department, and you have no experience in senior positions."

"Of course, don't take these words to heart. They are all the care and concern of your colleagues in the department."

Kate felt like her whole body was about to explode. This was not a conversation, it was clearly a slap in the face.
