Chapter 306 The Corrupt Ye Clan

Rachel gritted her teeth and decided to die. Anyway, the company would be blamed. As long as she could rely on Ling Luxian and successfully join the Arasaka Company, it would be fine.

It's a pity for the fourth wall Mewtwo Studio. Rachel was still thinking of getting some experience here before running off to Arasaka. Now it's impossible. After finishing the Mewtwo recording with Ling Luxian, we have to run away quickly. It's just right for her to use her upcoming "Passion" project as a token of her loyalty.

"Then I hope you can help me later, please."

Ling Luxian looked at the pitiful Rachel, who was almost kneeling on the ground to kowtow to him. This was in stark contrast to the arrogant look he had when he met V.

He didn't want to deal with such opportunists, but seeing Rachel's "sincere" request, and knowing that he and she still had a partnership, he finally decided to help her. As for her fate, it was up to her.

"Okay, I'll do my best. But you also have to do your job well and don't cause me trouble." Ling Luxian reminded.

Rachel nodded repeatedly with tears of gratitude. She knew that this time she had grabbed a cash cow, and as long as she followed Ling Luxian closely, her future financial prospects would definitely be bright.

After the incident with Gary, Ling Luxian was tired of playing around, and wanted to finish Mewtwo as soon as possible, so he didn't plan to drag it out any longer. He struck while the iron was hot and immediately called Arasaka Yorinobu.

"Lai Xuan, do you know about this?"

Ling Luxian sent the contents of the mysterious chip he got from the man in a suit in the abandoned factory to Arasaka Yorinobu.

"This is?"

Arasaka Yorinobu was feeling annoyed as to why Ling Luxian was so ungrateful as to answer his phone again.

Arasaka Yorinobu was stunned for a moment until he saw that piece of meaningless information.

"What the hell? Why did you send me this?"

"You spell the first letters of the words in each line and you will understand."

Arasaka Yorinobu re-spelled these sentences.

[Project: Oracle Instruction Execution Plan]

After reading it, Arasaka Yorinobu was silent for a moment, "Do you suspect that this was Arasaka's doing?"

"No, quite the opposite." Ling Luxian shook his head, "This is the work of Ye's Company."

"Ye's Company?"

Arasaka Yorinobu frowned. He knew that Yeshi Company was a local enterprise in Night City. Not only that, it could be said that Night City was built by Yeshi Company alone.

It can be said that if Richard Knight had not been assassinated, Night City would not have become a bridgehead for the dispute between Arasaka and military technology.

But for so long, Arasaka Yoriaki had never heard of any troubles in Yeshi Company. How come Yeshi Company suddenly jumped out and seemed to be the villain?

Rachel also heard the name of [Ye's Company] and knew that what was going to happen next was not something she could listen to. She walked out of her office silently, and before leaving, she turned off all the cameras and monitoring devices in the office.

Ling Luxian looked up and saw that Rachel was so sensible. This behavior immediately gave him extra points. He decided to mention Rachel in front of Arasaka Yorinobu after talking to her about this matter.

"As far as I know, Ye's Company has never had any negative news." Arasaka Yorinobu said doubtfully.

"This is the crux of the matter." Ling Luxian said, "Kang Tao has been sending people to infiltrate Ye's company, but there has been no significant results. Isn't this strange? I believe that even you, Arasaka, have never obtained any important information about Ye's company."

Arasaka Yorinobu said sarcastically: "Yes, even the head of Arasaka's counterintelligence department is your man. It's too strange that Arasaka agents haven't infiltrated the middle level of Ye's company."

"Valerie is mine, not Kang Tao's. You don't need to be so sarcastic." After saying this, Ling Luxian analyzed, "Do you remember what happened to Ye's Company since Richard Knight passed away?"

"After Richard Knight's death, Madam Miriam reorganized Yeshi International into the Yeshi Foundation to fight against the corporate alliance headed by Arasaka."

Arasaka Yorinobu had great respect for Miriam Knight and his tone was full of admiration.

The Knights' vision was exactly what Arasaka Yorinobu had hoped for. Unfortunately, after Richard Knight's death, everything went in a bad direction.

Arasaka Yorinobu continued, "However, after a certain period of time, the Yeshi Foundation was reorganized into the Yeshi Company and no longer participated in the political affairs of Night City."

"Because she knows that Ye's Company alone cannot shake the hungry wolf of the Company Alliance."

Arasaka Yorinobu nodded, agreeing with Ling Luxian's statement.

"Ye's Company did another big thing after the Fourth Company War."

Arasaka Yorinobu and Ling Luxian said in unison: "We have established the world's first local area network!"

The two were slightly stunned and looked at each other.

Ling Lu continued, "Do you remember the network company that helped Ye's company build the local area network?"

Arasaka Yorinobu thought for a moment and said, "Are you talking about Pyramid Network? But it seems that I have never heard of this company before cooperating with Yeshi Company."

Ling Luxian knocked on the desk and said, "Do you think it is possible that this Pyramid Network Company is the company that created Liuchuan AI?

Madam Miriam believes that she cannot save Night City, so she chooses to obtain the cooperation of the roaming AI? "

Arasaka Yorinobu was shocked by Ling Luxian's bold idea. Everyone knows that the roaming AI outside the black wall is the biggest threat to mankind.

"It is indeed possible." Arasaka Yoshinobu said slowly, "If this is true, then what is Madam Miriam's real purpose? And why did she choose to cooperate with them? These are the questions we need to figure out."

Ling Luxian took a deep breath, "I'm afraid it's to fulfill Richard Knight's dying wish, to make Night City a free city, instead of the 'free' city it is now.

Madam Miriam's cooperation with Liuchuan AI was probably beyond her control. By now, the Ye's company might have been hollowed out by Liuchuan AI.

I have another discovery. Yeshi Company has a series of plans. Through some technical means, it changes someone's brain memory to achieve the result of controlling the person. What do you think about this?"

"My opinion? You know what? This method reminds me of someone." Arasaka Yoshinobu said solemnly, "Laki Batmos, this guy is a control freak. He once implanted a virus into his company employees to achieve the effect of control.

According to what you said, these two methods are exactly the same, and it is hard not to connect them together. "

Ling Luxian found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. In the abandoned factory before, the Uzumaki Gang did mention Lilith (Ultra).

But it does not mean that Yeshi Company is controlled by Lilith (Ultra). Hearing what Arasaka Yorinobu said, Yeshi Company is likely to be controlled by Bartmos.

Before his death, Batmos had close communication with Ultra, and there is no doubt that he uploaded his personal imprint into cyberspace.

According to the few words left by Spider Murphy, the traces of Patermos have disappeared. But is it really gone? There is no way to verify it at present.
