Chapter 22 Victory Smile
City of Night.
Company Plaza, Arasaka Tower.
Tang Yu, who was on the morning shift, just after verifying his identity information and was about to enter the main entrance, he accidentally saw a company convoy driving to a temporary parking point in front of the door.
After the black extended bulletproof company sedan at the front stopped, the secretary and bodyguards immediately rushed forward and opened the car door. A middle-aged woman in Arasaka company's standard suit and uniform walked out of the car door, and her powerful and capable aura was immediately revealed.
The staff around who had originally approached Arasaka Tower also stopped and stood on both sides to avoid giving in, silently staring at the middle-aged woman.
The momentum is eye-catching.
Tang Yu turned around and couldn't help but sigh.
"It seems today is my lucky day."
The middle-aged woman who walked towards the main entrance of the company as if no one was around was Susan Ebernasey, the director of special operations at Arasaka Company.
Tang Yu deliberately slowed down and walked through the hall to the public elevator.
There are three public elevators in the main hall of Arasaka Tower. Although there are single or double elevators in other slightly off-the-spots, the company's high-rise buildings generally only take the main elevator, which is in line with the company's choice of identity and status in the workplace.
Tang Yu walked to the public elevator in the main area two steps in advance and waited. There were eight or nine Arasaka employees waiting around. After seeing Tang Yu, they stopped talking in a low voice.
It is now at the rush hour in the morning, so the elevator is running tightly. After about half a minute, the echo of high heels pedaling on the floor and the noise of crowds gathering behind Tang Yu.
Two uniformed bodyguards with big backs jogged to the elevator, wearing sunglasses, stood on the side of the elevator door in the middle.
The actions of the two bodyguards quickly made everyone in front of the elevator door consciously disperse, because they knew that they could equip the company's bodyguards in Arasaka and undoubtedly were senior executives. No one would want to be cared for by their superiors for waiting for the elevator.
Everyone had dispersed, but Tang Yu was still standing at the entrance of the elevator in the middle and motionless. He treated the big bodyguards on both sides as air and continued to wait for the elevator to descend.
Abnaci was hurriedly arranging work for his subordinates while walking, and he was not paying attention to the road ahead. When he was about to approach the elevator door, he almost hit the person in front of him. He suddenly became angry and stopped halfway through what he had originally assigned to work.
Suddenly.
The whole hall fell into silence.
The whole audience was divided into three distinct circles.
Standing in the outermost circle were Arasaka staff who came to work scatteredly, while in the middle was the bodyguards and subordinates of the Special Operations Department who were tightly surrounded in front of the elevator, and in the innermost floor were Tang Yu and Ebernasey who were surrounded.
When Ebernasey saw someone blocking the way, the forehead skin that was originally safe was not consciously wrinkled with a few obvious lines.
"Sir, please let me go. Our director is in a hurry to have a meeting now."
A male bodyguard immediately understood the boss's frowning expression and thought that the person who was blocking the elevator was so unlucky. He knew that the company's senior director had come but didn't know where to give up his position.
Tang Yu was too lazy to look back at the situation behind him, and said without hesitation: "Does the company have regulations to wait for the elevator to get the position?"
The bodyguard approached and sternly said: "This is the Director of Special Operations, Ms. Susan Ebernasey, who needs to go to the Council immediately to attend the meeting, now immediately."
"Bang!"
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yu slapped the security guard hard in the face and directly threw him to the ground.
Everyone in the hall was stunned by the applause and looked at the dramatic scene in front of him.
The other three bodyguards immediately entered the security state and wanted to step forward to subdue Tang Yu, but they immediately stopped after hearing his words.
"Louis, Arasaka Company's H-level employee, and the personal bodyguard of the special operations director, is suspected of installing dangerously modified armed prosthetic bodies without the formal authorization of Arasaka Company. It poses a serious threat to the safety of Arasaka Tower's office space. I would like to ask Director Susan Ebernasey, what should people who violate the company's regulations be dealt with?"
Tang Yu then turned around and looked at the middle-aged woman behind him with a smile, waiting for her answer, and found that the other party was scanning his identity information with his prosthetic eyes.
Susan Ebernasey soon saw who the young man in front of him was, so he said with a cold face: "It's you."
Tang Yu replied politely: "I didn't expect Director Abnathie to remember me. He met me so by chance in the company. If you are really in a hurry, I see that the elevator has arrived at the lobby."
As he said that, Tang Yu pointed to the elevator on the side door not far away, which had already dropped to the hall gate wide open. Several Arasaka employees who had just entered found that the situation was wrong and immediately ran out of the elevator with drinks in disappointment.
Susan Ebernasey clearly noticed the other party's provocation, but now she is inside the Arasaka Tower Company, and even if she wants to do it, she will be subject to the rules. Now she does not have the fatal handle of Tang Yu, so she can't touch him for the time being, but she feels that she is not going to have to be scrupulous with employees of Tang Yu in her own right.
In her opinion, Tang Yu was just a loyal dog under Jenkins. He had almost no faction in Arasaka. He was completely promoted by Jenkins. As long as Jenkins fell, Tang Yu's good days would come to an end.
Susan Ebernasey stopped several bodyguards who wanted to do it, and the wrinkles on his forehead also relaxed, and he said arrogantly: "It's okay, you'll wait for this elevator first, I'll wait for the next trip."
Tang Yu didn't notice that this director with a strong personality could endure this anger. He expected that the other party would probably feel that he would be sure of himself. If something goes wrong, there would be a demon. But now he will stimulate the strong woman first and disgust her first.
At this time, the elevator arrived at the hall and the gray and silver gate slowly opened.
Tang Yu walked into the elevator and turned to face Susan Ebernasey, and suggested in a friendly tone: "Director Ebernasey, please be careful of your bodyguard installing unknown prosthetic bodies without the company's authorization. If you get infected with the virus and become a Cyberman, it doesn't matter if you are injured, don't implicate other colleagues in the company."
Susan Ebernasey's originally flat forehead faintly burst out with dark blood vessels and blue veins. He glanced at the bodyguard on the ground coldly, then covered his left temple with one hand, and his prosthetic eye turned a red aperture.
Immediately afterwards, the security guard lying on the ground fell straight on the ground like a crash, and blue flames appeared on the back of his head.
She stared at Tang Yu in the elevator coldly and said, "Thank you for your reminder, but you haven't even implanted the basic prosthesis, be careful."
The elevator door just so happened to be closed, blocking what she said outside the elevator.
Tang Yu dusted his sleeves, and he didn't plan to listen to Susan Ebernasey's trash talk. He probably made the other party angry this time, but now he is not concerned about these small episodes. Next, he needs to see the progress of Mann and the others' movements.
In front of the elevator in the hall, Susan Ebernasey stopped halfway there, but Tang Yu had already taken the elevator upstairs.
She withdrew her hands and wrapped her in front of her, clenched her fists tightly, and bit her teeth tightly, and she didn't move until the next elevator arrived, but she still stood there without going in.
The bodyguard who died suddenly was quickly dragged away and secretly dealt with. The staff around him who were watching the fun deliberately avoided the right and wrong and tacitly chose to go to other elevators.
After a while, Susan Ebernasey let go of his hands and walked into the elevator expressionlessly.
In the elevator, she explained to her secretary.
"What is the difference between Carter's waste immediately and lurking him for so long?"
"In addition, let Caitlin hurry up and investigate the whereabouts of the prosthetic body, and today I will hear the progress report."
"I don't want to see him again in the company."
"Do you understand?"
