Tokyo Juggernaut 2077

"Things here must be kept secret. Except for the operatives this time, who wants to disclose it." Yuan Ye seemed to suddenly think of something, and added, "I'll send this prosthetic body back to the headquarters with you later."

"Okay, I will keep their mouths in check." Gao Shanzhen also asked, "Then I will arrange a car now, but the management organization in this area has come, how should I deal with it? Do they just evacuate?"

——Although the funds for the operation were not from the official account of the Black Dragon Club, everyone in the Black Dragon Club actually knew the vests that paid the money, and they couldn't hide it at all if someone wanted to check.

——But I didn't mean to hide it either.

Yuan Ye immediately replied: "Let's deal with it, manage it according to the usual practice, try to minimize the impact, and let them not meddle in their own business. As for money, the economics department is now conducting a financial review, and your little money should be delayed It's been a long time, and you will list the details and send them to me, and I will transfer the money to you privately."

"How can this work..." Gao Shanzhen also quickly retorted, "How can I ask the leader to pay you?"

"That's it, my brother still has to settle accounts. I don't like the fruits of my labor who are prostitutes. Don't deliberately quote a low price to please me or a high price to kill me just because of my status." Yuan Ye Xiaoxiao I made a joke, "I have something to take care of, and I will be back in about 10 minutes. Is it enough for you to finish it?"

"Quite enough."

Yuan Ye nodded, turned around and jumped down from the gap, lightly touched the wall a few times in mid-air to slow down, landed on the ground easily, turned around and disappeared into the reinforced concrete jungle.

"You really deserve to be an extraordinary person, this is what you call an extraordinary person." Gao Shanzhen also looked at Yuan Ye's movements, sighed a little complicatedly, and then began to direct his subordinates to deal with the scene.

===Chapter 230 Nine Information===

Yuan Ye avoided the camera and entered the Internet cafe through the rear window.

Some unpleasant smells of life and smoke intruded into his nostrils. Although it was not new news that Yingzhou Internet Cafe became the residence of low-income migrant workers and homeless vagrants before he crossed over. Now it is directly changed into the same environment as the collective dormitory on the construction site. It seems that the low-end Internet cafes in Yingzhou have completely turned into something like a cheap hotel with computers in 2077.

Scanning with spiritual energy, I found many customers who were already asleep in an instant. It is almost ten o'clock now. According to Yuan Ye's own experience before crossing, this kind of night owl who lives a life upside down will usually take a nap at this time - after all They usually don't get up until one or two in the afternoon, and they are just sleepy after eight hours of activity. It is more common for them to sleep for one or two hours and then "fight" until five or six in the morning and then go back to sleep.

Yuan Ye picked a cubicle in the corner and opened the sliding door in front of him. The door of Yingzhou Internet Cafe cannot be locked. This practice has remained unchanged since before his time travel.

The people in the cubicle curled up in the corner, and fell asleep like this, not worried at all - anyway, for them, except for the clothes and the money in the Internet cafe account, there is nothing to worry about. Carrying anything valuable is basically dependent on relief, so you are not afraid of stealing.

This kind of traditional Internet cafe in Yingzhou is not like the open space where computers sit in rows before Yuan Ye crossed over, but is composed of small cubicles covered with tatami mats. The cubicles are small, only two or three cubic meters, and the taller ones It is difficult for an adult male to lie flat with his legs straight, but fortunately, the resident of this cubicle is still a minor who has not grown up, and the two of them can barely stay in the cubicle after squeezing together.

Yuan Ye put his palm on the resident's chest and guided his breathing. This is a method he developed when teaching Neihai to practice breathing. It can use spiritual energy to influence the breathing method of the other party through a principle similar to resonance.

The resident's breathing gradually became longer, and he fell into a deep sleep state, and the influence of external movements on him gradually weakened.

Put the guest's finger on the fingerprint reader on the table, and then open his eyes to pass the iris authentication, and the projection screen and virtual keyboard popped out together.

This resident is obviously just for living, and did not choose to add physical peripherals because of game needs, but it is enough for night use.

Yuan Ye plugged in the camouflaged USB flash drive commissioned by the technical department, put the earphones on the disposable earphone case provided by the Internet cafe, and after a few simple operations, he boarded the common communication software in the underground world and dialed the drone network call sign.

After a short wait, the unmasculine and harsh electronically synthesized voice of the drone came from the earphones as usual. The voice was lively and obviously in a good mood: "Little brother, what do you want me to do?"

"Would you believe me when I said that I came here to congratulate you on your successful promotion?" Yuan Ye chuckled, "I'm not joking, where is the information I want?"

It seems that because of the recent good performance, the drone has been promoted--I heard the drone say it casually when Yuan Ye commissioned it.

Naturally, there are no independent organizations or people in this world, such as bards or Tianji Pavilion in the fantasy world, who rely on selling information for a living, and these people hold the latest and most important information.

The strongest intelligence capabilities are naturally the intelligence departments of the two major powers on the east and west sides of the Pacific Ocean, followed by some giant corporate complexes and regional hegemony countries that are limited to their own territory, and then it is their turn to roam around in various regions. Among the big forces, there are some top "social butterflies" who work for the above organizations or make a living on the basis of individuals. Every big organization defaults to the existence of this role as a lubricant between everyone. useful.

So do the multinational headhunters, lobbyists and power brokers who work for giant conglomerates.

Then there are the intelligence agencies and commercial espionage owned by giant enterprises and political entities whose influence is limited to the home country, and finally the intelligence agencies that are affiliated with or simply belong to the previous level and provide services for the bottom of the underground world. Information providers or intermediary organizations.

——The information provider code-named drone is actually just one of these intermediary organizations, and I, who still needs to find it to seek information, is just a small person who cannot be smaller.

——Thinking about it, there is indeed a strange sense of smallness.

Yuan Ye was joking in his heart, waiting for the answer from the drone.

"Hey, I really like to say a few words first and then go straight to the point as always. It is indeed your style, little brother." The drone sounded helplessly, "But there is nothing to celebrate about being promoted. It's a side job. No matter how good it is, it is useless, I will pass on the information to you now."

"Thank you." Yuan Ye went to confirm the file, unplugged the fake USB flash drive, logged out of the account, logged into the communication software with his spare personal terminal, and downloaded the file locally.

The small program made by Hoshino Shiori started in time, reminding him that the device was being tracked, and gave a countdown to the real location.

The file was very small, and it was downloaded within a second or two. Before Yuan Ye, who was staring at the beating little rabbit on the countdown, was in a daze, before he could react, the personal terminal automatically logged out of the communication software, and began to disinfect the network and change the network address preset process.

Yuan Ye bit his lip, got up with some inexplicable melancholy, left a chapter that could be exchanged for ten liters of water coupons as compensation, and left the Internet cafe.

On the way back, Yuan Ye took a rough look at the information provided by the drone. Of course, this cannot be an exclusive secret, but it is just a combination of messages from the underground world and semi-public information. It is also possible to collect commercial companies that do this business on the surface.

However, firstly, those companies do not necessarily have a deep understanding of the underground world, and secondly, they are indeed prone to leaking secrets, so it is better to find "professionals" like drones to do it.

After all, the drone is the channel recommended to him by Mr. Sato. Before he left, he also said that the intelligence and credit of the organization that the drone is affiliated with are good, and it is a usable channel.

Not only drones, Yuan Ye also entrusted multiple channels known to the Black Dragon Society to obtain similar information. The intelligence provider he came to meet today was just one he deliberately selected to leak information to test the Chief Edo.

The information given by the drone is similar to the others, with some lesser-known rumors in the underground world, as well as some situations that the Edo Joint Chief just appeared in people's sight.

"Huh?" Yuan Ye stopped suddenly and focused his eyes on one of them.

===Chapter 240 Doubt===

"When the Edo Federation had not yet reached its current level, did it ever have conflicts with the Yanling Sect?" Yuan Ye softly read the text displayed in the personal system, "The current head of the Edo Federation, who had just been appointed as the head of the Edo Federation at that time, was strong. He took the shot and killed a high-level transcendent of the Yanling sect, thereby establishing his prestige, and being able to fully control the Edo Federation, and with this strength, he was finally able to contract from Kasumigaseki to the grassroots governance of the entire Tokyo metropolitan area .”

At the back of the information, it is marked that this is just an uncertain rumor. There are many similar rumors in this information, but most of them are outrageous. Rumors that sound like nonsense, such as white gloves or simply wearing a vest to fight in person, exiled princes of foreign royal families who perished.

And the biggest source of this sense of mystery is the Noh mask that the Co-Chairman of Edo wears on his face all the year round and never takes off.

Although the former head of the Edo Federation also had the habit of wearing a mask, it was a matter of course, because when he was young, he suffered a horrific scar on his face that could not be hidden. Things are not exclusive, and even implicitly respected, fierce scars can even enhance prestige.

However, everything is always too late, like the situation of the former Edo Federation President whose entire face was severely burned, it is better to wear a mask to cover it up, otherwise the first thing ordinary people see is nausea.

At the beginning, the current head of the Edo Federation said that he was learning from the previous generation and inheriting the tradition of the Edo Federation mask. A posture is also conducive to control, but when his seat is stable, he still does not take off his mask, which inevitably makes people suspicious.

We must know that human beings are social animals after all, and the Homo sapiens genes that have not changed much from primitive times to the present determine that a collective of more than 150 people cannot be governed by primitive means, and will eventually fall into the "totem" shape up.

For a medium-sized organization like Jidao, which is based on the law of the jungle and has only tens of thousands of people directly under its jurisdiction, the most important point of the "totem" is the shaping of the leader itself, and this shaping must first define a "natural person" as the "totem" " carrier.

Perhaps a truly large group, such as a country or a consortium of giant enterprises, will pursue the common identity of "unnaturalness", and strive to dehumanize the "totem" for the sake of a stable transition of power, so as to achieve the situation of recognizing positions but not people. This is what the modern bureaucracy is after.

However, it is obviously impossible for Edo to unite with such a polar organization to play this game. In the polar world, [strong man] is the eternal leader. Yuan Ye was able to become the president of the Black Dragon Society so smoothly, and he killed Uesugi Tomohiko This performance is one of the biggest contributors. The current Edo Federation President who never took off his mask is extremely unqualified in this regard, because an unnatural person can never become a strongman.

The Edo United also complained in private from time to time. Many leaders of the first and second generation groups said, "We are not so much serving the chief as we are offering our loyalty to a mask. This couldn't be more ridiculous." such words.

However, judging from Yuan Ye’s conversation with the Chief Executive of the Edo Federation that day, that person did not wear a mask to become Chief Chief, but “brought” the position of Chief Executive so that he could wear a mask and act as usual. His words were relaxed Freehand brushwork, quite a bit of the unrestrained freedom and ease of a master of the world.

——This information is very likely to be true.

Yuan Ye thought in his heart.

The time when the Word Spirit Sect was active coincided with the great chaos and collapse brought about by the great unemployment wave in the world. With the help of this shareholder wind, after the start of the giant enterprise's corporate war, the turmoil brought about by the giant enterprise entering the stage of history led to the original governance of various places. developed in “vacant niches” left by declining institutional control.

Since the Word Spirit Sect is a new organization developed in the "vacant space" left after the old forces ebbed, it will naturally be resisted by the Edo United Federation, which started in the same way, and it is only natural that the two sides have conflicts.

Although I don’t know if there are some special reasons that made the historical records of the Edo Federation unclear during that period, but the Great Unemployment Wave was a real event that happened more than ten years ago. People who experienced it at that time did not die. There are not a few old people in the Edo Federation who have survived from that time to the present. From their mouths, we can know that the Word Spirit Sect, which sprung up like mushrooms all over the world at that time, broke out in Tokyo and the Edo Federation. Tragic bloodshed conflict.

Combined with the general manager of Edo's dislike for the Word Spirit Sect - it should be regarded as dislike, at least in Yuan Ye's view, it is not a good impression, but now there is insufficient information, and everyone's attitude is very "ambiguous". As a person in the center of the vortex, he It's not easy for little people to make absolute judgments, after all, no one knows what kind of reversal will happen.

Combined with this disgust, there are rumors that the President of the Edo Federation has directly shot and killed the high-level officials of the Yanling Sect, so his motives will have a reasonable support, and if the motives are clarified, he can figure out his thoughts a little bit. It is a little more chance.

At least you must know whether you are being regarded as an "abandoned piece" or a "chess piece". In case the Chief Edo just uses Yuan Ye as an abandoned piece, then it will be useless for him to work hard, and he will only be killed It's just that the death is worse when you rush - the faster you rush, the more miserable your death is, so it's better to just prepare to run away from the beginning.

And if he still has the qualifications to be a pawn, at least he can exchange his merits for protection, and even hold his own self-respect.

——But in this case, how to explain this information?

Yuan Ye reached out and pulled out another electronic document, which was the internal bulletin of the Edo Federation, which clearly showed that the director of the Disciplinary Inspection Bureau, Yagyu, led a team to wipe out the development of most of the new Yanling sects in the Edo Federation. The affiliated organizations that have come out, remind the gang members to be careful to hide the words of the Lingling, especially to guard against [people without walls] and not to be secretly transformed into people without walls by the words of the spirit, and list its characteristics and some in the attachment. Prevention method.

——Judging from this information, both the Chief Edo Coalition and the Director of the Disciplinary Inspection Bureau have obvious hostility towards the Yanling Sect, and both sides have personally shot records.

——Then why did the President of the Edo Federation suspect that Yagyu had joined the Word Spirit Sect?Did he see that his recent frequent hands-on actions are actually a disguise?

——Isn't it?According to the bulletin, most of the organizations developed by the Lingling Sect in the entire Tokyo metropolitan area are about to be killed. You must know that Jinglue Yingzhou is the top priority of the Lingling Sect's next actions. Everyone knows this. In the critical period of initial expansion and trying to gain a firm foothold, it feels bad to use the heads of so many believers as An Zi's vote?

===Chapter 240 The Status Quo of Yingzhou===

——Although it is not impossible, the possibility is indeed a bit low. Since the Lingling Sect came to expand its power, wouldn't it be a waste of money to achieve other goals by consuming the power used for expansion?

——If the Yanling Sect really wants to choose some official powers as its own "protective umbrella" to provide tacit approval for the expansion forces, then Yingzhou has too many more suitable choices. Compared with the overall Yanling Sect, the Edo United He is just an ant, and now he looks hot, but he is just being used as a chess piece to fight for.

Yuan Ye is no longer the little white who knows nothing about the general situation in Yingzhou. After he became the leader of the Black Dragon Society, he opened his arms to a lot of previously blocked information, and he had deliberately paid attention to this aspect. Information, through insinuating efforts on various channels, has roughly figured out the situation.

Based on the different attitudes towards the Lingling Sect, the upper class in Yingzhou can be roughly divided into two factions. One is the "native faction" in Yingzhou represented by the "Five Photographers" including the Jiutiao family. The sect's move to Yingzhou is extremely contradictory. The main armed force is the [Pure School], which Tomohiko Uesugi mistakenly believed that Yuan Ye was a member of. Friendly with the natives.

Because most of the influence of these traditional family forces is limited to Yingzhou, the addition of the Word Spirit Sect will not only occupy the limited living space for them, but may also cause changes in the attitudes of the two major countries in the Pacific Ocean. As a result, Yingzhou's tacit understanding as a "Pacific buffer zone" was broken, and their days as emperors would be over.

On the other side is the "pro-foreign faction" composed of the Yingzhou shogunate itself represented by Xiaguan, and the giant enterprises that joined them and began to rise after the Yingzhou bubble period. Most of their capital comes from International trade is naturally willing to introduce new forces to suppress the local forces, and its own extraordinary forces are composed of the Yinyang Liao directly under the jurisdiction of Xiaguan and the private armed departments of various giant enterprises.

It is even said that because the pro-foreign factions mainly rely on international trade, they actually don't care about the life and death of Yingzhou itself. Their ultimate goal is to completely control the mainland of Yingzhou, establish a highly centralized management system to extract labor to the maximum extent, and through internal exploitation To reduce production costs to maintain their own competitive advantage in the international market.

For this reason, they don't mind at all cooperating with such a notorious international evil organization as the Lingling Sect. Even if the situation permits, as long as they can provide a stable supply of qualified labor, even if Yingzhou is religiousized, all Yingzhou people will be washed into fanaticism It doesn't matter if Yingzhou becomes the diocese of the Yanling sect, it's better to say that this is actually in their alternative plan from the beginning.

And the most fundamental source of all these conflicts is that the construction of the Fourth Lunar City of the Western Pacific Republic and the Seventh Cluster of Lagrangian Point Colonial Satellites of the Eastern Pacific United States started together.

Social changes, after entering the era after Yuan Ye crossed over, due to the Matthew effect, the two superpowers confronting each other across the Pacific Ocean found that even if they did not do any evil, even if they were just carrying out normal economic activities, Inflation and quantitative easing are carried out to maintain economic health, and the "little brothers" in their own economic system will be naturally wiped out. Within one or two economic ups and downs, their finances will actually go bankrupt.

Although there are many differences between the new Cold War period and the old Cold War in which the two poles of the Pacific confronted each other, for example, unlike the old Cold War, where exchanges were completely blocked, it is still the same as the old Cold War period in terms of comparing good and bad. Naturally, it is impossible for the little brother to have such a miserable life, otherwise, who would mess with you?

In order to solve this problem, the two superpowers have tried their best, but I don’t know if it’s because the points of the great people in all countries in the world have been spent in the 21th century, and no new economics has been produced in the [-]st century. Subversive breakthroughs, naturally there will be no new solutions, everyone has to search in the pile of old papers, take out the old methods, refurbish and continue to use.

This "old bottle new wine" method is to use the pretext of developing the universe and colonizing space to redistribute the industrial chain with this huge project that requires almost half of the earth's productivity to be completed, so that countries can join the world's production chain , so as to allow capital to flow again and save the sluggish economy.

The redistribution of the two huge projects is indeed fruitful. Although the two construction cycles have not been completed, a super bad job has been completed, which has created an economic tsunami that swept the world like the Great Unemployment Wave, directly shutting down the world's economy. It has been around for more than twenty years, but it is still very useful after all.

——At least it must be useful, without him, and there is no better way, so what can we do?Make do with it!

Since economic activities in the new era mainly rely on these two projects, organizations that have not joined this plan, or are rejected by this plan, will have no choice but to meet them. The overall situation of Yingzhou, the reason why it sounds stupid to die is to put the overall situation first.

Because if it really affects Yingzhou's plan to take over the industry, it means that Yingzhou will enjoy the exciting experience of signing the Plaza Agreement every day and puncturing a bubble in the next 15 years of construction cycle. After 15 years, it must be Go straight back from the information age to the Second Industrial Revolution.

Of course, this statement must be a bit exaggerated, but it is not bad.

However, due to the special geographical location of Yingzhou and some special reasons in history, Yingzhou has formed a unique social environment like Yingzhou, and has been able to inherit some industries from both sides, so the small life in recent years has been pretty good.

The local faction is the direct beneficiary of this interest system. After the great unemployment that year, the Yingzhou shogunate actually went bankrupt, and the modern enterprises that emerged after the bubble era and the millennium naturally suffered heavy losses.

The local faction's family powers rely on the large amount of real estate, natural resources, minerals, gold and industrial resources that do not depreciate so much during the turbulent period, as well as the political capital brought about by Yingzhou's "feudal tradition". Hechao, using Xiaguan's shell to expand his power, finally took advantage of this to successfully undertake the first wave of industrial transfer, and officially became a pivotal player in Yingzhou's game of chess, instead of being attached to Yingzhou as before A parasite of the shogunate system.

After all, they had already been interrupted by a foreign emperor once, and the feeling of becoming a chess player again is wonderful. Naturally, they will not give up this hard-won "right to breathe", so they are most inclined to To maintain the status quo, it is best never to change.

===Chapter 240 Analysis of Current Situation===

Compared with the native faction who are closely linked by blood, Yingzhou’s traditional feudal teacher-student relationship and the son-in-law system, the pro-expat faction in Yingzhou is mainly composed of bitter masters who made wedding dresses for others—that is, The Yingzhou shogunate, as well as the emerging giant enterprises that have avoided risks through operations such as overseas property purchases and asset separation, have been severely damaged in the great unemployment wave, and their influence has declined significantly.

Logically speaking, the pro-expat faction in Yingzhou has the upper hand. After all, it is no longer the era of the first industrial revolution when the sun never sets. It is not as good as the talents recruited from all over the world, and the single population base is not the same.

What's more, the price of the local faction's high degree of closeness is a high degree of closure. They have not fully discovered the extraordinary talents in the control area at all, except for the feudal families headed by the Wushe family, who can rely on their unique ability to inherit through blood. With extraordinary pedigree to maintain a passable elite combat power, its own extraordinary technology is not as good as that of pro-expatriates.

At least according to Shinohara Junxia, ​​during her mission, she never encountered artificial transcendental beings used to fill the basic combat power, except for the non-family blood of the Gosho family and the common people who grew up. Like her, most of them It all gave her a strange sense of "incompleteness", presumably because the supernatural biotechnology of the local school is not good enough.

The reason why the two factions are still in a state of evenly matched power is that, first of all, the attitude of the Yingzhou shogunate, which is the "backbone" of the pro-foreign faction, is quite "ambiguous". These Yingzhou family forces still maintain a disconnected relationship. After all, before the Five Photographers officially became bigger and appeared on the stage of Yingzhou, the two sides can be described as a symbiotic relationship.

Then there are the fluctuations of the giant enterprises themselves. Some of them are facing the east, some are facing the west, and some of them are neutral and independent organizations in the world, with different buttocks. Saying that they have nothing in common, meeting each other without first punching out the dog's brains is already considered, and they are still busy acting as white gloves to interfere with Yingzhou for the benefit of the power standing behind them, making them twist together It is indeed a bit too embarrassing for them to work together.
