Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

"what?"

Rocky patted his face.

The early washing did not make him very energetic, but when he closed his eyes, he felt sleepy again.

Just give him a surface on which to rest his shoulders, and he can rest on his own arm for another good night's sleep.

Maybe it was just an illusion of overwork, so he pulled himself together and sat down at the bar.

Seeing Luo Qi seated, William turned up the volume of the holographic TV.

The above is a piece of news, and it has been going on for some time.

William purposefully shifted the schedule back to the part he wanted to show Rocky.

"...Sorry to interrupt the current program, here is a special statement from President Miles—"

It's the voice of host Jillian Jordan.

The following is the reading session, from the president of NUSA.

"... My government is very worried and disturbed by the increasing hostility between the Arasaka Corporation and Japan."

"Any accusations against military technology or New America, especially those from Arasaka, are not only unsubstantiated, but highly irresponsible."

"Whether it is military technology or the new U.S. government, it has always respected and supported the terms of the Alvin agreement."

"However, if the other party continues to maliciously provoke, on behalf of the current government, I assure you that we are ready to respond comprehensively."

"In the previous unification war, we as a polity, as a country, showed Saburo Arasaka that he is not invincible. If it is still necessary, I will not hesitate to teach his son another lesson."

"In addition, according to the investigation of relevant parties, Arasaka attributed the bombing of the roller coaster to NUSA and military technology, which is a complete conspiracy theory."

"For the rumors on the Internet, the new US government hopes that citizens will have the ability to think independently, and not be blinded by bitter schemes that ignore public casualties."

"If needed, we will provide strong evidence to clear the wrongs of military technology and the new American government..."

At the end of the statement, the moderator then proceeded to make a concluding statement.

"We hope that President Myers' firm attitude will force Arasaka to stop making irresponsible and offensive remarks."

"Now let's come back and continue with your regular show."

"thanks……"

In just a few minutes, the amount of information contained has already made Luo Qi fully awake.

What did military technology do! ?

They actually directly released the results of the investigation that the Terrorist Mobile Team had obtained, which could almost prove that Arasaka directed and acted himself?

Although it was just a few words, it was already quite unpretentious.

A president of a country can already represent many things by making a statement in this tone.

It has to be said that the war of public opinion between Arasaka and military technology has never stopped almost since Luo Qi came to Night City.

Both sides are trying to find or create dirty water all the time, and then put it on the other side's head.

Every hot social event will become a pawn in their game.

The roller coaster bombing is no exception.

But what Luo Qi didn't expect was that the military technology was so... measured.

Put another way.

It's just a click away.

Although there is no strong evidence for Arasaka's trickery, it is enough to deduce the truth of the matter.

With so many inside information, it is enough for the media controlled by NUSA to launch a crazy public opinion offensive.

But not only did Military Technology fail to do so, but on the contrary, it issued a seemingly innocuous statement.

"How about it?"

William looked at Luo Qi who was lost in thought, and couldn't help asking.

It has been several minutes after watching the news, Luo Qi's eyes just keep moving left and right following his thoughts, looking at different places from time to time, it seems that there is something to say that cannot be summed up in a few words.

"The only explanation I can think of is that military technology definitely has some purpose."

Luo Qi is not Yuri, so there is no way to know what is going on in President Miles' mind.

But the fact that Arasaka Yoshinobu wanted to use the float bombing to get rid of Arasaka Hanako is really too scary.

Although it is only a guess, although it is only an indirect confirmation from Wolff, as long as there is such a possibility, it is enough to serve as the direction of public opinion speculation.

This is a fig leaf for competition within large companies.

But Luo Qi will never believe that this is the "chivalry" of the new US government, and he is willing to cover up for the other party.

The most likely thing is that President Miles revealed a little tendency, and then used the handle at hand to conduct secret negotiations with Arasaka.

It's not good for both parties if it goes on like this.

The reason is simple -

No one is ready for war.

A moderate retreat is for the next more aggressive attack, and a proper negotiation is a tacit understanding as a competitor.

With the lessons learned from the fourth corporate war, I believe that the NUSA government will be more cautious before it is really ready.

But exchanging handles with each other does not mean that the conflict is resolved.

It's like a ticking time bomb that has been temporarily defused.

When the two sides completely tear their skins apart, these bombs are weapons that are pulled out and thrown at each other frantically.

But this is not the part that Luo Qi needs to care about.

He just needs to know that Arasaka was devastated and suffered a loss in this matter, that's enough.

Again--

The company's opponents can only be things of the same size, and the confrontation between two behemoths will inevitably bring huge consumption.

As long as it does not cause severe social turmoil and serious military conflicts, this is an excellent means of resisting the company.

Not intuitive, not quantifiable, but real.

This feeling of hiding behind the scenes made Luo Qi feel slightly excited.

He's still nowhere near the Machiavellian level in the shadows, but that's the beginning of progress.

"It's not good, there's still a long way to go."

Luo Qi does not shy away from talking about these things with William, because he is really his own.

Although the relationship is not as close as V and Jack, it is definitely more reliable than most people.

"But seeing a dog bite a dog makes me happy."

"That's the reason."

William also hated these capitals.

If it weren't for the struggle between them, driving the Chavez tribe as eagle dogs, the Buckle family would still be able to survive.

Although the fate of going their separate ways cannot be avoided in the end, at least they can live on their own.

Instead of dying in that ferocious night of flames.

"Your breakfast, please take it easy."

William served up a plate of simple western breakfasts kept warm in the oven.

Eggs, sausage, milk and cauliflower.

Except for cauliflower, they are all synthetic foods, but they are healthier, and the price is slightly higher.

After all, all meals are fresh food, which is an absolute luxury, and it cannot be done without mines at home.

The safety standards of these synthetic foods are very high. Although they are not as good as those grown in pure greenhouses, they are definitely cleaner and more hygienic than eating outside.

And it tastes good too.

"I see you are very tired, what have you been up to lately?"

William was very interested in this simple family short story.

Maybe it was the loss of his family overnight that had a huge impact on him.

In addition to fighting and killing to practice life skills, his hobby is to stay at the bar.

Luo Qi would often bring Suzi to this room to spend the night like this.

In Judy's words, it's like a "true micro-mini-community"——

Everyone is like Jack said, although they are not related by blood, they are brothers and sisters.

The kind that you can rest assured to hand over your back.

"NCPD's shit, there's a lot of it, and there's no end to it at all."

When Luo Qi mentioned this, he became angry.

Working in the Terrorist Mobile Squad, you have to deal with injuries and deaths every day.

Occasionally, some team members would be carried back, and a few sporadic people would be forced to rest in a month, but most of them could be rescued.

This is the risk of fighting cyberpsychopaths and violent terrorists.

But NCPD is different.

Luo Qi didn't understand at all how this kind of job, where policemen died in the line of duty every day, hadn't completely collapsed.

In almost every case that the Terrorist Mobile Squad can intervene, there are a few unlucky guys in police uniforms who are honored.

Once or twice is okay, three or four times is fine, if the number is too large, it is really unbearable.

Now that Luo Qi sees NCPD, he wants to curse.

Not only scolding the idiots of these police officers, but also scolding those sons of bitches who treat law enforcement as a company.

Well, NCPD is indeed a listed company.

This is what makes him feel tired——

Not physically tired, but mentally tired.

Outside of Night City, such as Northern California state troopers, highway police, and local county sheriffs.

Their economic conditions are even worse, and they can't even afford to support their own SWAT team.

That's right, it is the full-time SWAT that NCPD has.

Their special police usually have to do patrol work, and they will gather again when they are training, and they will change their identities when they have tasks.

It's really... sad.

However, Luo Qi could neither interfere with the law nor help the economy, so he could only contribute more people to help NCPD share some pressure.

It's no wonder that the old NCPD disintegrated directly in the scarlet era after the fourth corporate war.

If the current crime rate can't handle it, let alone the period when the entire urban system has almost completely collapsed.

The more aware of the status quo, the more helpless Luo Qi felt.

He feels that he is quite capable, but that is only when personal ability can change the situation.

I don't know what Max Hammerman did at that time.

Relying on his own strength, he supported the Supreme Military Tactics Department, and then pulled the NCPD, which was broken like Lego, to maintain the law and order of the city whose city center was destroyed by the nuclear explosion.

Maybe, people like Johnny and Roger knew?

Luo Qi thought about it, and felt that it seemed really feasible.

In 2013, the old bastard Johnny Silverhand took Roger, Thompson, and Santiago to fight the barren tower.

That was nearly 10 years before the fourth corporate war.

They even spent every period after that, until today.

"After eating, I will wash the dishes?"
