Chapter 55 Despair and Humanity

"They didn't report it."

Sasha replied, her expression a bit scared and annoyed.

In order to transmit this information, she was already determined to die, and if Ke Ling was not there, she would most likely die because of this.

But what she desperately tried to transmit was as if it was lost in the ocean, and News 54 did not report it at all.

They reported the news about the attack on the biotechnology company, but did not mention the information she sent.

The information was all about a drug, a painkiller called Securicine.

This painkiller has extreme side effects and will cause users to gradually develop neurodegenerative diseases, such as cerebral ischemia, brain damage, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease.

Sasha's mother died from the side effects of this drug.

Biotechnology companies were well aware of the side effects of this drug from the beginning, but they sealed the data on the side effects and still chose to put the drug on the market and promote it vigorously.

If this news breaks out, it will definitely be very detrimental to biotechnology companies.

Because until now, Securicine remains the best-selling drug for biotech companies.

It is conceivable that over the years, countless people must have died from the side effects of this drug.

"Of course News 54 will not report it. They are the mouthpiece of military technology and serve the new United States, and biotechnology and military technology are collaborating."

Ke Ling shook his head. The impact of these top-secret information was too great. How to deal with it was no longer decided by News 54, but by the big guys standing behind it.

News Channel 54, which has obtained these materials, will most likely receive a hush fee from the biotechnology company, and then the matter will be settled. It's that simple.

"how so."

Sasha's expression was dull for a moment, she didn't think so much at that time.

News 54 is a traditional media in the United States. As early as the beginning of the century, it had monopolized more than 62% of the news media broadcast in the United States.

So far, most of the news media broadcasting in New America have been acquired by News 54.

In the entire New America, except for WNS News, which has always been in opposition to News 54, this is almost the only voice.

As a result, it made a selective sound?

"Isn't this normal? When did you see News 54 reporting negative news about military technology and the new United States?"

Ke Ling looked a little helpless. If the company wants to dominate everything, it is almost inevitable to monopolize the news media and create an information cocoon.

Military technology rules the new United States, and News 54 is naturally what it must control. If it can't even control its mouthpiece, what's the point of ruling?

"Then I will send this information to WNS News?"

Sasha's expression was a little at a loss. News 54 couldn't report it, so what about WNS News, which has always been in opposition to News 54?
  "You can give it a try, but there's a high probability that it won't work. Is this Securicine involved in Dolma Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Petra Petrochemical?"

Ke Ling has not seen the specific content of this Securicine, but since there is no news about it, it proves that this Securicine must be very involved.

Because if it only involves biotechnology companies, then News 54 may not necessarily give face like this, unless it involves Pezo Chemical.

Ke Ling still remembers that in the game, a biotechnology company had a "Nightingale" project, and it was almost reported to News 54.

Judging from the way the biotech company dealt with it, they probably had no confidence in shutting up News 54, so they could only shut up reporters and employees who wanted to cause trouble. "Dolma Medicine."

Sasha was stunned. It did appear in the Securicine information.

Dolma Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Pedro Petrochemicals, is headquartered in Night City and is responsible for the development and production of pharmaceutical products.

Dolma Pharmaceuticals is a world leader in the development of new drugs and is currently cooperating with biotechnology companies on development projects of genetic drugs, customized bacteria and viruses.

"Pedro Petrochemical and Arasaka have also maintained a good cooperative relationship."

Ke Ling sighed, what does this mean? This means that WNS News will most likely not report this information, because WNS News is Arasaka’s mouthpiece in New America.

Sasha's face turned pale, obviously understanding what Ke Ling meant, which made her feel even more desperate.

She just wanted to do something for her mother, just wanted to do something for those innocent victims.

But in the end, this was just her wishful dream.

"."

Ke Ling said nothing. He could actually understand Sasha's mentality.

In fact, I have encountered people in a similar situation to Sasha in the game. His family was killed by the company. He burned his life in revenge for the company, but in the end he did not cause any harm to the company.

There are too many such people in Night City, and there are too many in this world.

Their operation will not succeed, and their sacrifice will remain unknown, adding only one more nameless corpse to the throne of corporate rule.

In this world, if you want to fight against the company with your own personal power, you will have to be a genius like Lucky Buttermoss.

But even a genius like Lucky Buttermoss couldn't cause a devastating blow to the company. He only burned a handful and left a mess in the world.

"I will not give up."

After despair, Sasha's eyes sparkled again. For this matter, she was not even afraid of death. What were these difficulties?
  "I won't give up, Devil."

Sasha looked at Ke Ling, the light in her eyes was dazzling, she was very grateful to Ke Ling.

Because thanks to Ke Ling's help, she did not die with wishful thinking and false dreams.

Because of Ke Ling, she had the opportunity to do more things for her mother and those innocent victims.

"you"

Ke Ling's eyes widened and he opened his mouth, but no words came out.

He originally wanted to persuade Sasha to give up, because if she kept insisting on this matter, it would most likely attract the attention of biotechnology and even Pezochemical.

However, what qualifications and position does he have to persuade Sasha to give up?
  To avenge his mother and seek justice for countless people who died because of Securicine, is there anything wrong with what Sasha wants to do?
  Of course there is no problem, but she is a little incompatible with this world. The light of humanity she shines is so beautiful.

"This world, this city needs more people like you, Sasha."

The words of persuasion were not spoken, Ke Ling smiled in relief. He didn't want to do it, so why should he ask others to do it too?
  This rotten world, a world without hope and a future, occasionally needs people like Sasha to appear.

In this world where everyone has sweet dreams, everyone wants to get ahead, and is a selfish and selfish world, occasionally someone needs to show the most beautiful sense of responsibility, dedication and sacrifice in human nature.
