Chapter 136 Arrogant David

They hit it off immediately, and Gloria felt quite confident in Smith.

Internet monitoring is considered to be credible in these large companies, so the commission will naturally not be small.

Both of them were optimistic about the commission, and after a few symbolic chats, Smith left.

Gloria asked Xiang Lingluxian, "What do you think?"

Ling Luxian returned to his previous relaxed attitude, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

“Internet monitoring generally does not easily find middlemen, and their internal agents will handle it themselves.

Now that they've found you, it means things are serious. The work is too full and they don't have enough agents."

Gloria was not sensitive to these things, and her face immediately fell when she heard Ling Luxian say this.

She also realized the danger of this commission.

Now that I think about it, as a middleman, Smith did not reveal any information to me. He just told me to find someone to meet them in three days.

This means that what happens next must be kept strictly confidential. Such confidential matters require middlemen, and network monitoring is really in a difficult situation.

"So you still promised them?"

Now that things are on the right track, there is no need for Ling Luxian and I to take any risks.

"But if we don't agree, we'll be in trouble."

Ling Luxian put down his wine glass and looked at Gloria seriously, "Since Smith has found us, he must have made all the necessary preparations.

Besides, even if we don't help, we probably can't stay out of it. The only thing that can give network monitoring a headache is probably the black wall.

Once the black wall collapses, everyone who has undergone prosthetic transformation will have to wait for death."

Gloria gritted her teeth. She knew Ling Luxian was right, but she still felt a little unwilling.

If there is a hole in the sky, there will always be someone taller to hold it up.

Even if they don't help, Internet monitoring will ask others for help, and Internet monitoring will not necessarily lose.

That's the logic, but the problem is that Ling Luxian is now the tall guy.

As for other companies?

Stop being funny, it's good enough that you don't make things worse.

Arasaka has been digging at the base of the black wall. Military technology is even more amazing, directly playing with the black wall and roaming AI.

Don't Internet censors know about these things? They know everything! Regardless of whether they are incapable of managing it, it's not just Arasaka and Militech that are doing such wicked things.

Put these things in the open and see if other companies will take action. Don't forget that Internet monitors are not police officers, they are also company dogs, and everything they do is for profit.

As for the black wall? All we can do is let the employees work hard to fix the loopholes all year round.

It can be said that the agents of Internet monitoring are the chosen workers.

Especially Smith who just appeared, he looked like a new employee.

Fortunately, although they are all company dogs, these agents have a sense of justice. If they don't have some spiritual support, they can't do this job. Who can stand working all year round?

Internet monitoring cannot control other companies, let alone a gang like you that has no foundation.

How dare a small voodoo gang rebel against the heaven? They just look like monkeys, but they are not real monkeys. They don't have such great power.

The gun hits the bird that sticks its head out. If Internet monitoring doesn’t target you, who will it target?

"Then what should we do now?"

"Do what they say first and see how things go."

Ling Luxian pondered for a moment and said, "However, we must also prepare for the worst. This mission may be more dangerous than we imagined."

Ling Luxian had no intention of leaving his fate to others, as that would be gambling with his own life.

Even though he knew that Internet censorship would ultimately win, he was unwilling to take the gamble.

Gloria nodded and prayed silently in her heart that everything would go well.

She looked at Ling Luxian and found that his eyes were still so casual.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you. At worst, we can die together." Gloria took a deep breath, as if to encourage herself.

"Hahaha." This caused Ling Luxian to laugh, "Don't be so pessimistic."

He hugged Gloria in his arms and comforted her.

Gloria blushed and said, "Let's talk about it when we get home."

Ling Luxian and Gloria returned home immediately. But when they got home, they ran into David as soon as they opened the door.

"Welcome home, I have something great to tell you." David said with a smile.

Ling Luxian silently withdrew his hand, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on Gloria's face.

"What good news?" Ling Luxian asked.

"Hey, I got promoted recently and became a section chief in the Counterintelligence Department. Minister Valerie, assigned me an apartment in the city center, and we can live there." David said excitedly.

"is it?"

Gloria smiled.

But no matter how David looked at her, he didn't feel that she was very happy.

Of course Gloria was happy for him, but looking at such a strange son, she couldn't feel happy at all.

Obviously, David joined Arasaka Corporation as she wished and became its leader.

She now doesn't know whether the choice she insisted on making for David was right or wrong.

"That's great, congratulations, David." Ling Luxian said with a smile, squinting his eyes.

Of course, this was not sincere. He vaguely realized that David was gradually degenerating into a corporate dog.

Gloria looked at the excited David, but she felt mixed emotions.

She couldn't help but think of herself, her past dreams and pursuits, and the sacrifices she had made for David.

She now knew what Ling Luxian meant and felt a little regretful.

She looked at David, who now looked brand new. His exquisite prosthetic body was obviously a high-end product, and his surging spirit showed that he also enjoyed the pleasure.

It’s just… there’s a lack of humanity in him.

The one who always understands her son is his mother.

As David's mother, Gloria naturally noticed that David was gradually degenerating.

If it was her before, she might not notice it and would be happy for David. But now she has taken a different path. She is good at dealing with people and can easily find out David's abnormality.

"But you also have to take care of your body and don't get too tired." Gloria said worriedly.

David patted his chest confidently, "Don't worry, Mom, I can handle it, let's move now."

Ling Luxian said meaningfully: "We are not moving our home, but our house."

David was a little angry. He worked so hard, but why couldn't he get their sincere encouragement?

He was very sensitive and of course could feel their emotions, and gradually his tone changed.

"How can it not be home? I worked so hard to climb to the top of Arasaka, why do you want to mock me?

I am now the section chief of the Arasaka Counterintelligence Department, and I am only one step away from entering the management level. I have a bright future as a senior executive of Arasaka."

Ling Luxian smiled and thought it was time to teach this kid a lesson.
