Chapter 202 Press Conference

"Tang Ji, turn on the TV. Walter Company has a press conference today." Mikkelsen's voice came from the phone: "The Virtue Project has started. Maybe you should take some time to contact Karcalf again."

"I promised him that if the information is accurate, I will guarantee his safety." Tang Ji sat on the sofa, pushed Surte aside who was watching cartoons, and switched to the news station.

Surte let out a frustrated sigh, turned his head and took out his mobile phone and began to browse short videos awkwardly. He had just started to get in touch with the beautiful side of this world.

Of course, without Anthony's daily basic teaching tasks, Surte's life would be happier. Although he has never been to school, he has already learned the troubles of learning without a teacher.

It's a pity that in this team, there is no possibility of skipping school. Anthony threatened Soult that if he didn't complete his daily homework, the next glass of water he drank might be poisoned.

"When you wake up again, you already have a booth with your own name in the Big Bird Bar." Anthony looked at Soult meaningfully.

Since knowing Surte's fear, almost everyone can make fun of it.

"The problem is that by the time the next safety window appears, it may be too late." Mikkelsen's voice was accompanied by car horns, which seemed very lively: "I mean, if there is another safety window period."

"At the current speed of the Blazers, maybe next month, they will start the so-called closed test." Mikkelsen reached out to hail a taxi, but when he opened the door, the enthusiastic driver inside made him wrinkle brow.

"Good morning, gentleman, I am the best driver in Heywood District, you can call me Big E, I can tell you are a real old money just by looking at your outfit, I am really honored."

Mikkelsen seemed a little silent, and Tang Ji was the same.

"You're still in Night City." Through the phone, Mikkelsen could feel Tang Ji's murderous intent.

"No, you got it wrong." Mikkelsen replied calmly, and got into the car at the same time: "I'm not in Night City."

"I know that driver." Tang Ji snatched Surte's cell phone and sent a text message to Rogge.

"I'm just here to buy some souvenirs." Mikkelsen replied unhurriedly: "That's it, the Walter Group's press conference has already started, goodbye."

Before Tang Ji could answer, Mikkelsen had already hung up the phone.

"Want to buy local specialties, sir? I know a few places that sell very authentic Night City specialties!" Big E displayed his sense of ownership and refused to let go of a fat sheep.

"Night City has a history of several decades. Can you tell me what other specialties there are other than money and power?" Mikkelsen asked while pulling out a pistol from his pocket, which the driver couldn't see. The silencer is screwed in place.

At this time, Big E also received a message from the block boss Francisco: "Send the passengers in your car to the Afterlife Bar."

Big E glanced at the news, then glanced at the passengers in the back row who still looked like dead faces, and continued to speak eloquently: "Then you don't know anything about Night City, do you know that Night City is The largest distribution center for addictive chemical drugs in the Federation, even the pure natural cocaine in the Persian region can be found here!"

"And it's definitely top-notch. It's hand-planted by Persian girls without using any synthetic fertilizers. It's said that the taste of the plants grown by each girl is different. If you buy more, you'll get a holographic impression."

Speaking of this, Big E suddenly paused: "You don't usually smoke any high drugs, do you? I mean that thing is pure natural after all, and the effect may not be so exaggerated."

While talking, Big E deftly made a detour, hoping that he could safely send the guests to the designated place.

Mikkelsen didn't respond to the noise made by Big E, he just quietly assembled his gun, then raised his head, aimed at the opponent's pig's head, and fired.

PIU!

The silenced bullet hit the bulletproof glass, leaving a shallow mark on it, and the bullet bounced off immediately, smashing the window beside Mikkelsen.

Mikkelsen glanced at Big E who didn't change his face. The other party didn't even stop talking about introducing souvenirs. He could only feel that this place is worthy of Night City, and everyone is like a dragon.

"Old man! You'd better not resist, or I will definitely show you when I get out of the car!" Big E looked at the car window with some distress, and shouted sharply: "Be honest!"

Mikkelsen wasted no time. He pulled the car door, which was locked as expected, and then fired continuously, shattering the rear window and flipping over.
Well, he failed, and the experienced Big E slammed on the brakes to swing Mikkelsen back into the car, then made a series of sharp turns and then drifted, causing a lot of chaos on the street.

And the inertia also firmly pressed Mikkelsen on the seat, and Big E turned on the radio in satisfaction, and violent rock music roared out, making his taxi even wilder.

"Who do you think you are? A villain who doesn't give money?" Big E shook his head and sang along: "No one can mess with Big E, he is the real villain!"

Mikkelsen sighed, he began to feel that he had suffered so much, maybe he was being targeted by Mr. Lucky again.

"I'll give you 50 yuan, and let me get off at the next intersection." Mikkelsen gave up fighting with a taxi driver who possessed special skills.

Don't argue with your driver, this is a truth.

"My account is *********, I believe you only when I see the money!" Big E was very satisfied with this offer, which just surpassed the prestige of Francisco's boss by a little bit.

Before Big E's car arrived at the intersection, the money arrived. Big E braked without saying a word, and stopped on the side of the road: "It's a pleasant cooperation, sir, you are really rich, I know you are a real old money, I hope you won't hate me for being unreasonable before!"

Mikkelsen didn't look back, just put on his top hat and disappeared into the crowd.

A few minutes later, Tang Ji received a reply from Rogge. She did not find the person Tang Ji wanted. The taxi driver was found a few streets away from the Laisheng Bar, suffered a severe blow to the back of the head and lost consciousness.

"Big E, you're talented." Tang Ji's lips turned up, showing respect to the taxi driver's outrageous guts. He definitely blackmailed Mikkelsen himself into this scene.

According to Wu Qianying's analysis of Mikkelsen, Mikkelsen will never keep alive in this kind of matter.

But that's fine, Tang Ji felt that Mikkelsen had been humiliated enough, and the effect was better than his own action.

At this time, the press conference of Walter Group finally started.

As a new company, the Walter Group's press conference should not have attracted much attention, but its energy is too great. The news of the press conference is an invitation letter issued by the federal government.

And the person standing on the news platform is also the current press officer of Palace W. She is emphasizing the order of the venue and the scope of questions.

"May I ask what is the relationship between the Walter Group and the federal government?" The reporter of News 94 took the lead to ask the question, relying on his personal relationship, before the press conference officially started.

"We are neighbors." The press officer joked: "They work downstairs, and we have been relatively free recently, so we were asked to help."

"Then they must have offered you an undeniable price." The reporter from Channel 94 responded with a joke.

"Well, no kidding, we do have some cooperation projects. The Walter Group has been the mainstay of the Federation since its establishment, and you will know soon." The press officer didn't care about the reporter's joke, and threw out A small breaking point: "Later, maybe our commander-in-chief will also attend this press conference, I hope you will not be too surprised."

The reporters looked at each other and discussed in low voices, making the scene a bit noisy.

"Do you know the origin of the Walter Group?" A reporter from News 94 whispered to an acquaintance on the Economic Channel: "Why have I never heard of this name before?"

"Don't ask me, I know as much as you do." The reporter looked around and then whispered: "But I heard that it has something to do with the bankrupt Byrons Pharmaceuticals, and many of its former employees, are now working here."

The reporter of "Byrons Pharmaceutical" News Channel 94 recalled it for a long time, but he was still unfamiliar with the name, so he could only continue to ask the other party, "Tell me more, I know you are well-informed."

The reporter from the Financial Channel hesitated for a moment: "I heard that you have been leaking exclusive information about Law Enforcer Tang recently? Share it with me too?"

The reporter from News 94 agreed without hesitation: "Let's talk, before the press conference starts, I have to make an announcement first, so that the station can get ready."

"I heard that the former Byrons Pharmaceuticals has been secretly researching drugs related to superhumans. Before it suddenly closed down, it was believed to have produced thousands of superhuman babies." The reporter of the Financial Channel briefly introduced: "But There is no solid evidence, people only know that the core team of Byrons Pharmaceuticals has suddenly disappeared."

"They work for this Walter Group now?" The 94 reporter felt as if he had an inspiration, and instantly filled his brain with a conspiracy theory plot of 10,000+ words.

"No, they own this company now." The reporter of the Financial Channel said with emotion: "No one knows how many secrets about superhumans it holds, but it must be very fascinating. Haven't you seen its source of funds? Military technology, waste board, future technology, standard industry, etc., all the big consortiums you can think of are providing funds for it."

"But it has not released any products so far. If it has a secret deal with the government, why is it so public?" The reporter of Channel 94 is still full of doubts.

The press conference was held very suddenly. He was temporarily arrested because he happened to be reporting in the demonstration city. Many colleagues here came here like this.

Rather than saying that they were invited, it is better to say that they received orders from Palace W and had to appear.

The reporters of News 94 looked around, and there were people from almost all major media groups waiting for the press conference to be held here.

At this time, as the press officer clapped his hands, a group of fashionable white-collar workers walked into the huge conference site. The reporters finally became silent, and the photographers also received the news that the live broadcast signal was allowed to be connected.

This allowed Tang Ji to finally see the Walter Company representative in the picture. He carefully looked at everyone's face and kept them in his heart.

These people are all players, and they are the points of the activity.

Before Walter's spokesman could speak, the big screen suddenly lit up, followed by a carefully edited video.

The iron man Ruburt first appeared on the screen. He stood alone at the door of the bank, holding a gun in one hand, and dragging a long chain of ammunition with the other hand to shoot at the law enforcement officers.

Faced with this metal man who couldn't be killed or blown up, the law enforcement officers could only hide in embarrassment. The few targeted attacks also failed due to the intervention of Ruburt's accomplices, and finally left a lot of corpses.

Although Iron Man Ruburt is the new favorite of the media recently, this video has never appeared on the Internet before, because the angle of view is too close, as if he is right next to Ruburt.

Compared with the pictures in other news, this video is so wonderful that it can be directly played as a movie clip.

The opening remarks of the Walter Group attracted tens of thousands of viewers in front of the TV.

When the iron man Ruburt drove away in a patrol car in a cool manner, the following scene cut into a scene of a group of fanatics storming the prison.

The screen focuses on the fanatic's facial expressions, red eyes, and unscrupulous madness in the face of bullets.

Every time a fanatic fell, a photo of him and his family smiling across the face, contrasted starkly with the frenzy on the corpse's face.

When all this is over, it is the young and excessive face of the instigator, and the sentence: "This is just the beginning, we will come back."

The superb editing allows all audiences to realize from the screen that those fanatics are not in this way, but are controlled by others and cannot help themselves.

Then there are still all kinds of "wonderful" scenes of superhuman criminals. Tang Ji even saw himself in it. superhuman criminal.

"I think everyone has had enough of these things, and enough of those superhumans showing their uniqueness in an unscrupulous way." The Walter Group's spokesperson finally stood on the stage, looked at the surrounding reporters, and spoke slowly.

If he didn't know the nature of the Walter Group, Tang Ji would have thought it was a live broadcast of an anti-superhuman gathering.

"But that's not all superhuman beings. There are heroes among them." Following the words of the spokesperson, the picture on the big screen behind him changed.

A man covered in flames rushed into the burning building. As he climbed, the flames in the building were extinguished layer by layer; a girl in plain clothes was holding the hand of a patient tightly, and after a while her forehead It was covered with sweat, but the patient's face became ruddy visible to the naked eye.

On the street, a car was rushing towards a child. Seeing that the tragedy was about to happen, a passing teenager suddenly stretched his arms and lifted the child seven or eight meters away, and then he was embarrassed by the screams of passers-by. flee.

"The founder of the Walter Group realized a long time ago that superhumans are not freaks. We hope to use our actions to announce to the world that superhumans are more than that." The spokesperson paused and gave reporters a response Time: "So, we have a real problem-solving team under the mandate of the federal government to prove to society that superhumans can also make society better, save lives, and stop the evil that is happening .”

"The team is called Virtue!"
