At 10 o'clock in the evening, Xu Yang found a game arcade on Highway 90, paid remotely, and opened a virtual warehouse machine. He got in, connected the machine to his own nerves, and tampered with most of the services with ease.
Agreement, making it anonymous and confidential.
There was a preset image in the virtual warehouse. He chose a default male appearance with a popular face, and then used the identification code shared by Kirino Reiyo to enter a private meeting area.
He closed his eyes and waited for the process of neural tuning. The electronic circuits connected with the biological nerves and began to transmit and recode the photoelectric signals. Because he was pre-installed with a digital mind, this process was extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, when Xu Yang opened his eyes, he found himself in a quiet classical garden, with a gurgling river flowing through the middle, a blue-gray stone bridge spanning the river, rockeries, rocks and white trails interlaced.
Full of Zen.
A woman wearing a fox mask and a suit was sitting on the stone bank of the garden. She put a pair of white and tender feet into the water to wash, held her hands back, and looked sideways in the direction of Xu Yang.
"Hello." She waved to Xu Yang easily, then stood up and saluted Xu Yang respectfully.
"Miss Kirino Reiyo, nice to meet you." Xu Yang walked to the place opposite her and returned the courtesy slightly.
The default simulation level of the virtual warehouse is 50%. He can roughly feel the breeze blowing on his face and the fragrance, but there is no special feeling. Too high simulation level will affect the person's real body and cause the original body to have a stress reaction.
, it is safer to turn it down.
"Please take a seat." Kirino Reiyo knelt down in front of Xu Yang, waved gently, and a table full of tea sets appeared in front of him, "The environment is simple, I hope you don't mind."
"Yes." Xu Yang sat down cross-legged, his fox face gave him a mysterious feeling. As a reality manipulator, Kirino Reiyo's abilities are really difficult to decipher. The most dangerous thing is that the other party may have composite abilities.
If she is a dual-ability holder like Falosa, then she must be wary of another ability that Kirino Reiyo has not revealed yet. When dealing with it, one must be cautious.
Kirino Reise looked at Xu Yang, feeling equally uneasy. The infinite destiny of Kyoto has come to a crossroads. Once defeated in games at all levels, the efforts of the past hundred years will be in vain, and any mistakes on his part will be in vain.
It could bring dire consequences. The unpredictable boulder was pressing on her head, making her be extra cautious in every move she made.
"Perhaps you also understand that Kyoto Mugen is facing huge threats." Kirino Reiyo said solemnly, "Dangers from all aspects are approaching, and the president even committed suicide to apologize, leaving me alone to support myself. So, no matter you
I would be sincerely grateful for any kind of help you can provide."
"As a giant company, Kyoto Unlimited should have sufficient resources and crisis management plans," Xu Yang said.
"But this is the problem." Kirino Reiyo said, "I suspect that there is an invisible threat within our company, which is deeply rooted in our company's core system."
"Do you mean……"
"It all started in June this year. The R&D team of Kaka Kyushu successfully developed the 'Tiangong' network monitoring intelligence," explained Kirino Reiyo. "Perhaps you don't know that this is a complete set of AI used to replace the traditional manual mode.
The solution is used to maintain and manage public networks, easily replacing the work of old network security personnel. As soon as it went online, Gaoge Jiuzhou structurally optimized 398 neural network engineers, greatly saving labor costs and providing Gaoge with
Jiuzhou saves 47 million yuan every year, which not only helps streamline the corporate structure, but also successfully recycles more than 200 digital minds, achieving multiple benefits with one stone."
This is the origin of everything. Xu Yang sighed secretly. Without this incident, the whole world would be completely different.
"It's really well done." Xu Yang said nonchalantly, "It's a perfect plan to save human capital. The management is really thoughtful. So, what does this have to do with Kyoto Unlimited?"
"Seeing the optimization work of Kakagaku Kyushu, our company is also following up." Kirino Reiyo explained, "We have shared some technologies and also designed our own network security artificial intelligence 'Multi-Eye Demon', which successfully integrated 50
Neural network engineers are exported as social talents. But this is the problem... I think the 'multi-eyed demon' has betrayed us."
"The rebellion of artificial intelligence?" Xu Yang pondered.
"During the great battle on the Onshi Sea, our company's Konjima was hit head-on," said Kirino Reiyo. "The Multi-eye Demon was also installed on the Konjima as an electronic warfare defense countermeasure. Afterwards, it was attacked by fire from the space carrier.
They investigated the control and air defense systems, only to find that they were repeatedly interfered with by multi-eyed demons, which had an undesirable weakening effect. As a result, the Kojima was severely damaged and is still being repaired in the dock. This fact is also an open fact among high-level officials.
However, I cannot trust other forces within the company, and they may not investigate the situation of the multi-eyed demons fairly."
"Do you suspect they were behind its operation?"
"Exactly."
"I manage an independent third-party network security team," Xu Yang said, which was actually himself. He planned to take action personally. "I can help you solve this problem completely, as long as you open the corresponding investigation authority to me.
.”
"I'm really grateful." Kirino Reiyo made a posture of sitting down, leaning forward with his forehead on the ground, "I sincerely hope that you can solve this mystery. The various factions within the company have been fighting against each other, which has made me isolated and vulnerable.
If not for your help, I could only watch as Kyoto Infinite was dismembered by all parties, or even completely destroyed by the Black Fire Innovation."
"I also have a condition of exchange." Xu Yang said, "About a war witch, I have some personal grudges with her, and her whereabouts are related to you."
"Is it Pan Ruiyin?" Kirino Reiyo reacted instantly and sat upright.
"Indeed." Xu Yang agreed.
"Pan Ruiyin was sent to a place outside this world by me," Kirino Reiyo said calmly, "I will inform you of Pan Ruiyin's specific movements after your investigation of the 'Multi-Eyed Demon' rebellion is completed.
"
"I want to answer now." Xu Yang said.
"I was sent to the cracks in the world," Kirino Reiyo said. "It is an unpredictable place that cannot be entered by conventional means. It is behind the entire world. I can only reveal this level. When I was seconded before,
She belongs directly to me, and only me knows about this transfer. Please rest assured, I will not hide anything when the time comes."
Pan Ruiyin was seconded by Kirino Reiyo and then sent to an unknown dangerous situation. It was really different. Xu Yang thought to himself. Only this level of exchange of interests can figure out Pan Ruiyin's specific whereabouts. Let's deal with it like this for the time being.
"Then, one answer for another." Xu Yang stood up.
"There is something I am very curious about." Kirino Reiyo raised his head, "If what I predict is true, you seem to have a considerable amount of resources and power."
"Indeed." Xu Yang said.
"Although it is abrupt, but..." Kirino Reiyo also stood up, "Are you willing to serve as the eighth president of Kyoto Mugen?"
"No interest." Xu Yang said.
If you have this time, you might as well go home and give Farosha a hug.
"I am rude." She quickly bowed to Xu Yang and apologized.
"Use that channel to open the necessary permissions to me, and I will help you find out the truth. Then you hand over all the whereabouts and information of Pan Ruiyin to me. Do you agree?"
"Yes, I completely agree." Kirino Reiyo expressed deep greetings to Xu Yang.
"Goodbye." Xu Yang logged off from the virtual space, and his body instantly disappeared from the courtyard, as if he had never been to this place.
"Thank you! Thank you!" Kirino Reiyo shouted, hoping that the other party could hear him before disappearing.
Kirino Reiyo also quickly went offline.
The cabin door rose upwards, and she walked out of the eggshell-shaped cabin, feeling a strange sense of relief throughout her body. She walked to the side room of the private room, leaning against the door, with the ancient mysterious box in the center.
"We have met people who are willing to help us," said Kirino Reiyo. "A professional technical team may be very large."
"...It's true...I can always find new friends, Kirino Reiyo..." A trace of black mist came out of the gap in the box, making a hoarse voice.
"I originally looked for a better one for you." She opened the handheld tablet, "but he rejected it. Oh, the candidate you selected will be here soon."
An elevator went up to the 79th floor of the Kyoto Unlimited headquarters, and a man with a strong body and a plump figure walked out of it. He was short, with dyed blonde hair, a mustache, and a capable appearance. He was Kyoto Unlimited. The head of the overseas department is smart and capable, named Takashi Akita.
"Excuse me." Akita Takashi bowed to Kirino Reiyo, "As soon as I receive your message, I will rush back to the headquarters immediately. I hope I won't delay you."
"Come in, please come in." Kirino Reiyo personally helped him take off his shoes, which made him feel flattered.
"Ah... this place is really simple." Akita Takashi looked at the decorations everywhere, "There are no electronic equipment at all. Is this Kirino-sama's decoration style?"
"Only trustworthy people and objects will stay here." Kirino Reiyo took Akita Takashi's hand and entered the room.
"So, what specifically do you want me to do?" Akita Takashi felt nervous for no reason.
He was led into a side room and took a frightened look at the ancient box located inside the room.
"The position of president has been vacant for more than two weeks." Kirino Reiyo looked back at him, "Do you know what this means?"
"Could it be that..." Akita Takashi felt a sudden movement, "Mr. Kirino..."
"Yes." Kirino Reiyo took off the fox mask, "Everything about me belongs to you."
Akita Takashi was stunned when he saw what was happening under the mask.
"Uh-" Akita Takashi opened his mouth wide, "Mr. Kirino...why..."
The black mist poked out from the box and gradually formed a body with a solid appearance, turning into a woman with disheveled hair. She stood up quietly and grabbed Akita Takashi's hands from behind.
"What's going on!" Akita Takashi couldn't move.
"Shh..." the woman whispered.
"Sorry." Kirino Reiyo twisted Akita Takashi's head from his neck in the blink of an eye.
Blood splatters.
"Dirty all over me." The woman with disheveled hair picked up a piece of cloth and cleared her throat, her voice gradually changing from hoarse to crisp.
"I'll leave it to you in a moment." Kirino Reiyo took Akita Takashi's head in his hand, "Wait for me to deal with it, this face is not bad, don't regret it then, you picked it yourself, it's a good face.
"
"You are already the eighth generation, how long do you want me to play this trick with you?" The woman's tone was full of sarcasm.
"It's not easy to build this team, let's continue playing. Please." The woman wearing the fox mask said with a smile.
"It's so vicious...'Kirino Reiyo'."
"You repeated it so many times that I mistakenly thought it was my real name." The woman wearing a fox mask put Akita Takashi's head on a machine and began to clean out unnecessary contents.
"Sakura Witch, Sakura Miko... what you borrowed from me is not just a name... Hey, you can use it." The woman with disheveled hair walked to the bathroom to wash away the blood on her body. She uncovered her hair, underneath
