It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

Chapter 70 Miss Ye, you don’t want to steal things

Talk about it.

Because of the "rust fog", the difference between day and night in Night Sin City is not so obvious.

Many people live in bronze darkness from birth to death, and in most cases, time is just a simple measurement.

However, the scene in District 15 of Night City is completely different - many years ago, the upper echelons built a simulated lighting system based on historical documents, which roughly replicated the day and night cycle, and the feeling of night, neon and vaporwaves was weaker.

This also provided a lot of convenience for Miss Ye Shanshan's infiltration operation.

At this time, the "Snake Ring" building was almost dark, with only about one-third of the lights still on. It was obvious which department was working overtime.

It just so happened that Xu Shi’s office was not on the same side, so Ye Shanshan was able to bypass security and sneak in without much effort.

Her "Shadow" ability is very useful. Blending into the shadows is like swimming, and it can often help her avoid damage.

Gulp, gulp, drag them all into the water.

But you still have to be careful - the security of the "Snake Ring" is indeed more stringent than that of the "Prism". Once you put on the special eyepiece, the infrared scan is denser than the fishnet stockings on the legs of the Sin City sex dolls. There are also various types of mechanical security patrols. Once discovered, without special identification, you will be shot into a sieve in less than two seconds.

Come on, step by step... Ye Shanshan sighed and walked through carefully, step by step.

It took her more than an hour to successfully arrive at Xu Shi's office.

It was pitch black and the curtains were drawn, so the pseudo-moonlight outside couldn't let in much light.

She quickly reached the desk and saw the keyhole on the drawer, which made her feel sarcastic.

What era is it now, and people are still using traditional padlocks... This is Mr. Xu's negligence. He probably never thought that someone would actually dare to come to his office to steal things?

But this made her movements much more convenient.

If it really is a password, fingerprint, or iris lock, I don’t know how much time it will take.

Fortunately, I brought a decoder.

Ye Shanshan rolled her eyes, and after confirming that the thing had no electricity and nothing else strange about it, she took out the hairpin and started tinkering with it.

The girl is shortening her life... click.

In a short while, she successfully unlocked the drawer.

Become!

Miss Ye Shanshan, filled with joy at the harvest, tiptoed and opened the cabinet door.

however.

Before she could reach out her hand, a strong white light shone on her.

Ye Shanshan, wearing a nightgown and holding a flashlight in her mouth, was instantly exposed.

……Why?

Ye Shanshan was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that something was wrong.

It was discovered!

who? !

Now is not the time to dwell on this. When she came to her senses, she didn't have time to think too much and just rolled over to escape.

There is a shadow next to it. If only I could reach that place...

But it's a pity.

Just before Miss Ye Shanshan was about to leave, her body floated up uncontrollably.

The flashlight in its mouth fell to the ground in panic with a crisp sound, and its limbs were waving around, making it look like a cute octopus.

The lights in the office were also turned on completely, and she finally saw who had caught her.

Not only Xu Shi, there were also two girls standing behind him.

One is Jiang Chengcheng, and the other looks a little unfamiliar to her for a moment... Oh yes, isn’t this the action leader Xia Wuyou whom she met during the previous escort operation?

For a moment, the two groups stared at each other with complicated expressions.

"Oh, I never thought that the person who sneaked into my office in the middle of the night would be you, Miss Ye."

Looking at her, Xu Shi said helplessly and amusedly, "Didn't you make an appointment to play games with someone... or is working overtime so tempting to you?"

"…Why are you here?!"

At this point, Ye Shanshan had no more excuses to find, so she stared at him and asked back unhappily.

She remembered clearly that when they were in the car, Xu Shi said that he was going to the 14th District to eat, drink, have fun, drive Impart and so on.

"Oh, please make sure Miss Ye understands this. This is my office."

Xu Shi spread his hands and said, "What's the problem with me being here...but what do you want to do sneakily?"

"It's all because of you, you...you're going to do something bad to Mr. Xie!"

Being caught in the act, Ye Shanshan simply laid bare her cards and shouted angrily, "I, I saw it with my own eyes, and you, you even wrote a plan for this!"

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

Xu Shi scratched his ear with his little finger, then pointed at the drawer, "All I know is that Miss Ye, you sneaked into my office in the middle of the night without permission, and intended to steal the database backup and key of the Snake Ring."

Following his finger, Ye Shanshan saw clearly that there were only a few black metal boxes in the drawer, and there was no plan!

cant!

I clearly saw him put the things in with my own eyes... No!

Things had come to this point, and Ye Shanshan understood everything.

It’s not that Xu Shi noticed something unusual and transferred the plan away in advance.

I'm afraid that from the beginning to the end, this matter was a trap he set for himself!

Yep.

After getting to know Miss Ye Shanshan in depth, Xu Shi discovered that she didn't seem to have any obvious weaknesses.

If I have to say something, it seems that the only loyalty I have is to Xie Qingyan, just like Su Lin is to me.

That could be used as an advantage... If she were to accidentally see my intention to target Xie Qingyan, the little curly-haired girl would definitely not sit idly by.

The result was as expected, and it was worth the preparations he had spent so many days on.

Haha, every step was within your calculation, Master Xu.

"I really didn't expect Miss Ye to do such a thing."

He looked extremely distressed. "I thought we had a friendly cooperative relationship... Could it be that Xie Qingyan had ordered you to steal the secrets?"

"Don't involve Mr. Xie in everything!"

Ye Shanshan kept shouting, and even at this time she did not forget to distance herself from the matter.

"Okay, okay. I don't think Qingyan is that mean."

Xu Shi nodded. "But even if this is your idea, I am now concerned about our cooperation."

Worry about you▇▇!

"You you you...you bastard! Shameless! I I I...scum! Vile scum!"

Ye Shanshan was so angry that she was spitting out foul language, but she had to consider his words.

It's not a big deal if I get caught, but the problem is, as Xu Shi said, once this kind of thing is exposed, it will inevitably have a huge impact on the cooperation between "Prism" and "Snake Ring".

It is possible that "Prism" will be put into a serious passive position - the fact is that there is solid evidence that he was caught stealing. Even if he said that it was because he saw Xu Shi plotting something bad, it was just empty talk without any basis, making it seem like he was biting back.

"…Is there any room for negotiation, Mr. Xu?"

Realizing this, Ye Shanshan had no choice but to lower her eyes and struggle tentatively.

The other party set up this trap, obviously with some ulterior motive.

"Logically speaking, it would be hard for me to let you go if you did something like this."

Xu Shi blinked, "But I'm a tolerant person, so there's still some wiggle room."

He just beckoned, and Jiang Chengcheng beside him understood what he meant, took out something and handed it to him.

It was a leather strap with a medium-sized hollow metal ball stuck in the middle.

"If you want to keep this from being exposed, why don't you wear this?"

Xu Shi walked towards her with a smile, "I believe, Miss Ye, you don't want your Chairman Xie to have a hard time because of your mistake, right?"

"By the way, do you remember what I told you before?"

How could Ye Shanshan not know?

"If you were my employee, I would sew your mouth shut."

Oh, Mr. Xu is really narrow-minded.

Wearing Kouqiu~

It doesn't seem like Jiang Gan was the one who stole the book. After all, the target of General Zhou was not Jiang Gan himself. (doge)

Chapter 71 Talking about work at this time?

Statement in advance.

What Xu Shi was holding in his hand was a very serious utensil.

"Silence" is produced by "Snake Ring" and its original target customers are prisons and mental hospitals. In order to prevent criminals or mentally ill people from going crazy and biting people, this thing was designed.

I don’t know why, but once the product was released, the place with the most orders was actually Sin City’s District 6… Well, who cares, as long as there’s money to be made.

But this undoubtedly adds a strange filter to "Silence" in everyone's eyes - at least that's what Ye Shanshan saw.
