The next day, Sheyan got up early and enjoyed a hearty breakfast, then took a taxi to Eleventh Street, where Saibotin Computer Company is located. When he started, the traffic on the street was relatively smooth, but when he was about to reach his destination,
When I arrived in Los Angeles, I experienced the severe traffic jams in the megacity of Los Angeles, which were even many times worse than the era Fang Senyan entered.
In desperation, Fang Senyan asked for the address of Saibotin Computer Company and then got off the car and walked. Fortunately, the headquarters of this company is extremely grand. Even among the high-rise buildings in Los Angeles, it can be said to be outstanding. It can be seen almost as soon as you raise your head.
Seeing the company's huge logo, Fang Senyan had no chance of getting lost.
However, Sheyan had a strong sense of danger in his heart from the moment he got off the car. It was as frightening as if he were standing on the top of a high-rise building and looking down without guardrails, and the closer he got, the more dangerous he felt.
The thicker it becomes...
Fortunately, Sheyan's destination was not this huge and dangerous company, but the Buster's Steakhouse a few hundred meters away next to it. Generally speaking, the environment of this steakhouse was not very good, and everything looked stale.
It was greasy and greasy, and the leather padding on the chair was cracked and cracked. However, probably because the smell was quite good, it still showed a tendency of being overcrowded. Fang Senyan waited for half an hour before he got his turn to sit down.
Although Sheyan only consumed a cup of coffee at his seat, the waiter could be said to know everything about the generous tip. So thirty seconds later, Sheyan knew that the middle-aged bald man sitting in the third row next to him
The man with rosacea was the target of his trip: Engineer Vincent. He also knew that it would be some time before he left after breakfast.
Obviously Engineer Vincent has a good appetite. There are several empty plates stacked on his table. When Sheyan looked over, he was working on a sandwich with bacon and swallowed it by the way.
I took a sip of warm milk oatmeal, patted my chest with satisfaction, and forked half of a Russian sausage.
Sheyan waved and paid Engineer Vincent's bill along the way, but his behavior did not gain the latter's friendship. Vincent wiped his mouth with a handkerchief whose true nature was unclear, and looked at him with a vigilant eye.
He came over and said rather impolitely:
"I won't look at you differently because of that bill, boy, no one can make me let you down during the interview."
As expected, this engineer had a bad personality as indicated in the mission evaluation. However, Sheyan did not feel discouraged, but looked into Vincent's eyes and said seriously:
"Oh, I have no interest in working for Sepodin Computer Company - by the way, this does not mean to disparage your company at all - five minutes, Mr. Vincent, I only need five minutes of your time, if
If you still want to leave after this, I will take the initiative to open the car door for you."
While Fang Senyan was talking, he noticed Vincent's slightly yellowed index finger, so he took out a Havana hand-torn cigar from his arms, cut it and handed it over. Obviously, this cigar worth one hundred dollars was successful.
It buffered Engineer Vincent's impatience and arrogance. He snorted coldly from his nostrils, lit this deep-colored, thick, powerful, and powerful cigar, and took a gentle puff, letting the mellow
The smoke lingered in the mouth for a moment, and when it reached the throat, it was gently exhaled, and then the eyes were slightly closed:
"Say it."
Sheyan paused for a moment, giving the impression that he was carefully preparing his words, and then said:
"I live near Seventy-seventh Avenue - the place where a large-scale terrorist attack was reported to have occurred yesterday."
Vincent nodded, indicating that he knew about this, and then said indifferently:
"Four minutes left."
"There was a violent explosion near my home. I was taking a nap at home at that time, and the glass in the window was all broken. After a while, the downstairs was surrounded by the police. After the police removed the alert, I was cleaning the room.
Found this."
After Sheyan finished speaking, he stretched out his palm. In his palm lay a seemingly ordinary object, but it shone with a strange light blue electric current. It was the mission prop: the main CPU chip (incomplete).
!
Vincent was puffing away with his eyes closed, his arrogance ready to come out, but when he saw the thing in Sheyan's hand, he looked at it briefly for a few times, and then his face gradually became serious.
He sat up straighter and took the chip from Fang Sheyan's hand.
Engineer Vincent is capable and was once one of the company's main project leaders. However, he is usually unkempt and has a rather irritable and eccentric personality, which has offended many people. In recent years, he has been gradually marginalized by senior management.
Despite this, Vincent heard the news yesterday that the FBI had found "some items that significantly exceeded the current level of technology" and had handed them over to the company's headquarters. (According to the description of the movie's plot: The Skynet system was originally
Developed using the remaining chips and bodies of the T-800). The headquarters had held a meeting overnight and handed over all these things to the R&D department chaired by Moss Dyson, obviously excluding Vincent -
—His mood can be imagined, which indirectly became the main reason why Sheyan didn't get a good look when he arrived.
After Vincent took the chip over, he became more and more immersed in it as he looked at it. There was even more fanaticism in his eyes and he murmured to himself:
"How can such a linear conduction method have a carbon-based structure? There are probably more than 100,000 electronic points arranged on it! Damn it, what did my eyes see? Wireless functional base points, how is this possible, Rafi
Hey, go and activate the electric jet impact module, Raphael, pull..."
At this time, Sheyan also received the reminder of the nightmare mark.
You successfully gave Vincent access to the main CPU chip (incomplete)
Side mission: Contact (completed)
You can make the following choices to receive rewards:
a: Give the chip to Vincent to obtain a certain (10~25) points of favorability from him and a small amount of reward. The degree of favorability is directly related to the contractor's charm value.
b: Sell the chip to Vincent, which will reduce his favorability towards you by (30~50) points and provide a medium reward. The fluctuation of the favorability is directly related to the contractor's charm value.
Vincent, who was immersed in his thoughts, suddenly woke up, because Sheyan simply took the chip back from his palm, and said with a hateful sincere smile:
"Now, Mr. Vincent should have time to discuss the relevant price issues with me, right?"
Vincent didn't react for a while and said in shock:
"What? What price?"
Sheyan smiled and said:
"The price for transferring this chip to you."
Vincent's face suddenly turned ugly, he lowered his voice and stared at Sheyan and said:
"How much do you want? One thousand dollars, two thousand dollars? Ten thousand dollars, no! Don't go too far, I just need to shout, and the lovely police will rush in and arrest you, the greedy guy!"
"But the police also won't hand over the chip to you!" Sheyan said with a smile on his face, but his eyes were as sharp as needles! Although he didn't know Vincent's situation at this time, he pointed out the key to it.
"Also, Mr. Vincent, please note that I have now confirmed the authenticity and value of this thing from you, so you are no longer my only potential customer. If the price you offer cannot make me
If you are satisfied, then I think maybe other engineers from Saibotin Company will make a generous offer."
Vincent's face was livid with anger. He stood up and walked back and forth like a desperate beast trapped in a cage. He muttered something unwillingly, probably a slang from his hometown, and then took out all the banknotes in his wallet.
He came out and put on a very old-looking gold case pocket watch with the year 1944 on the case.
"You greedy devil! Take, damn, this watch, which is one of the relics left to me by my father, and then you can hand over that magical chip and disappear from me as quickly as possible.
Get away as far as you can! It’s best if I never see your greedy face!”
Sheyan also instantly obtained the information about these two props:
USD (397): A currency in circulation and a valuable item that can be carried out of this world or sold to space in exchange for 133 general points.
Swiss gold case pocket watch (1944)”
Equipment type: Accessories”
Place of Origin: Swiss Federal Bern Watch Factory
Equipment rarity: white
Equipment effect: physical strength 1
Equipment requirements: None
Material: iron/aluminum
Weight: 182 grams."
This equipment’s combat effectiveness score: 4
Explanation: My lifelong wish is to rush to Salt Lake City and become a devout Mormon. Unfortunately, it seems that my son will fulfill this wish.
Note: The U.S. dollars used by Sheyan in this world are the same as ordinary currency, and there will be no special instructions for nightmare marks. The same is true for ordinary pocket watches, and they cannot be taken out of this world.
Looking at these two things, Sheyan was not in a hurry to reach out and take it. Instead, he held the chip with a mysterious smile on his lips and shook his head slightly. Vincent's eyes showed a ferocious light, and he spoke with a kind of
He said in a threatening tone:
"Young people, those who are too greedy will be visited by Satan."
Sheyan sighed. At this moment, he deeply understood the joy of profiteers squeezing out the interests of others at the negotiation table bit by bit:
"Dear Mr. Vincent, please don't misunderstand me. I just want to ask you another question."
Vincent stared closely at Sheyan's left hand holding the chip, his rosacea and bald head were covered with shiny oil stains, and he growled in a growl that he tried hard to suppress:
"What else do you want to do!"
Sheyan suddenly opened his palm, and two identical chips suddenly appeared in his palm! This made Vincent's eyes suddenly widen like dead fish, and then glazed over. It can be imagined that Vincent was at this moment
The heart is beating violently, pumping blood violently into the cerebral blood vessels.
"I just want to ask, if two chips are sold to you together, what price can they be sold for?"
