Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

Chapter 56 Faction Game

on the board.

Arthur Jenkins speaks astoundingly.

When he reported to the board of directors, he mentioned that the data required by the R\u0026D department had been obtained by Tang Yu.

Susan Abernathy, who was sitting in her office, had a sudden change in expression. She was watching online remotely and stared at the screen.

She didn't expect that Jenkins had hidden a secret, and it wasn't until this moment that he showed his trump card, making it clear that he wanted to step on her on the board of directors.

When Abernathy saw Jenkins' faint smile when reporting, he felt unprecedented shame and resentment in his heart.

If the data of the mission target prosthetic body is lost, both departments will consider the mission failed. At most, it will be a failure.

But now Jenkins has obtained the data of the prosthetic body without anyone knowing, and has not lost any troops.

Which one is strong and which one is weak is clear to the board of directors.

No matter how much Susan Abernathy shirks her responsibility, Jenkins has completely suppressed her ability and image.

But she had no choice but to watch Jenkins steal the show in front of the board of directors.

"Wait a minute, he said it was Tang Yu who got the data?"

Abernathy seems to have grasped the crux of the matter.

In such an important meeting, Jenkins did not choose to take the credit himself, but directly attributed it to his subordinates.

She would never believe the story about Chollima and Bole. No one had clean hands and feet when they climbed to the high-level ministerial level in Arasaka.

This was completely different from the selfish and arrogant Jenkins in her impression. The fact that he could do such a thing with his big heart could only mean one thing.

Tang Yu was very important to him, and Jenkins, who even said that no one could use him, wanted to use Tang Yu as a ladder to climb up.

Jenkins made it clear that he would use Tang Yu's sharp knife to cut off the obstacles on the road to promotion. When the road was clear, the blade would also be curled.

"Well, Jenkins, I didn't expect you to have such a good card in your hand!"

Abernathy folded his hands in front of him, his right hand that had received light-grain skin implants, and rubbed his chin.

She had noticed Tang Yu before. He had made many military exploits in just over a year and was a capable person under Jenkins.

When the Animal Gang was asked to assassinate him, they only sent a carload of people.

Thinking that he had not undergone any prosthetic implant modifications and that he was just Jenkins' loyal dog at best, he underestimated him.

That day, he took the initiative to challenge himself in the elevator to win Jenkins' trust and favor.

Unexpectedly, Tang Yu was able to sit on the sidelines and fish in troubled waters to obtain prosthetic body data.

Obviously it was not Jenkins who led this situation, but Tang Yu who played a key role.

After Abernathy figured out the core, she was thinking about how to deal with Tang Yu. It was obvious that Tang Yu's priority in her heart had been raised to a higher level.

She looked at the large electronic screen in front of her and pursed her lips: "Coffee."

The secretary standing quietly heard Abernathy muttering something to himself, but he didn't dare to respond.

She knew that her boss, the director, was angry. If she answered the wrong question, she would be scolded if she got into trouble.

So when Abernathy asked her to get a glass of water, the secretary didn't react yet and quickly looked up at her boss to make sure she heard correctly.

When Abernathy saw that the secretary didn't move, he directly picked up the electronic tablet on the table and smashed it at her head.

"Don't have ears?"

The secretary was so frightened that he shivered and ignored the blood stains on his forehead. He quickly squatted down and picked up the electronic tablet on the ground, only to find that the screen was broken.

But she didn't dare to waste any time and hurriedly made coffee for Abernathy.

Board scene.

After hearing all of Jenkins' report, Arasaka Michiko did not hang up Jenkins' communication immediately. Instead, she asked in a slightly calm tone: "Are all the things you reported just now done by your deputy minister Tang Yu?"

Got another affirmative reply from Jenkins.

Michiko Arasaka immediately ordered again, asking Jenkins to send the data to Tanaka, the head of the R\u0026D department for confirmation.

It didn't take long.

Tanaka also connected to the board meeting, and in front of all the board members, confirmed that the human body operation data came from the military-grade Sianweistan implant, Cybermaniac James.

Michiko Arasaka nodded slightly with satisfaction: "Yes, the Counter-Intelligence Department has saved the mission goal and cleared up the mess."

"I remember that at that time, the Special Operations Department was scrambling for tasks and seeking performance, and it was all about guaranteeing success."

"You are really stubborn and have the nerve to steal information from the department next door. Don't you think life in Arasaka is too comfortable and dull?!"

Michiko Arasaka looked coldly around the nine board members, and they unanimously chose to look straight ahead without making any response.

Michiko Arasaka knew that each of these nine people had different intentions.

Some members of the board of directors relied on the fact that they belonged to the faction of their grandfather, Saburo Arasaka, and did not take her seriously at all.

Some of them were hidden secrets set up by his uncle Arasaka Yorikano, who kept inciting hostility and competition with military technology.

It may be that rumors have spread recently that Arasaka Yorinobu will take over Arasaka Company, and will also come to Night City to establish a new headquarters.

As for his aunt Hanako Arasaka, she is far away in the Arasaka mansion in Kyoto, and her influence is still difficult to influence here.

However, Hanako Arasaka has always regarded himself as the core of the family's orthodoxy. He operates under the name Saburo Arasaka, and his influence in the Arasaka family cannot be underestimated.

Therefore, her purpose in convening this board meeting was to take the opportunity to remove dissidents and consolidate her position in Night City.

Even if one day Arasaka Yorinobu ascends the throne, she will be able to protect herself.

At this point in the meeting, Michiko Arasaka no longer hid her purpose and said directly: "Director Susan Abernathy is responsible for this operation's incompetence and dereliction of duty in disciplining his subordinates. He will be suspended from his position as Director of Special Operations for three months. He will be recorded as a major demerit and punished." Twenty-four months’ salary, and a collective penalty of six months’ salary for the Special Operations Department.”

After Michiko Arasaka finished pronouncing the verdict, the board members looked at each other and observed the situation. It didn't take long for some members to express their opposition.

"It is not appropriate to suspend us for three months. Now that military technology is pressing us every step of the way, we cannot do without the director to take countermeasures."

Another board member added: "Abernathy did commit negligence, but the main responsibility lies with Caitlin and Carter Smith. They colluded with each other to gain success and gain more than they deserved."

"The failure of this mission is inseparable from military technology. The Uzumaki Gang dared to attack the Arasaka Special Service Team without military technology instructions behind it. It is a joke."

After listening, several board members nodded in approval.

As long as the conflict is transferred to military technology, even if Saburo Arasaka comes to the board of directors in person, he will have to think carefully about how to deal with it.

Michiko Arasaka did not expect that at this moment, these blind people would contradict her and arouse an unknown anger.

Thinking of Tang Yu, the 'hero' of this mission, I had another plan in mind.

"Since you are worried about losing a director of special operations, I think the special operations department just has a vacant deputy director."

"It would be appropriate to let Tang Yu, the deputy director of the Counterintelligence Department, concurrently serve as the deputy director of the Special Operations Department."

The words just fell.

Suddenly.

The whole conference room was quiet.
