The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

It’s just a question of how much.

To be honest, Arasaka is also a state-owned enterprise.

Moreover, as a company, Kang Taoqiang is quite strong, but the internal treatment is a bit hard to describe.

The salary and benefits of Kangtao’s internal employees may be on the lower middle level among all large companies of the same size.

After all, the salary is too high, which is not conducive to the struggle of young people at home and abroad in Kangtao.

As for Kangtao's much-publicized offer of gold membership in the trauma team for fifty years of work...it does exist, but they hid the additional terms and conditions.

Let’s not even talk about whether the average age of people in this shitty world is fifty.

The loss of wages alone is enough to make people shudder.

For example, if an employee works for a full year, but is accidentally killed in a street fight the following year, you have to pay for the lost wages for the next forty-nine years, right?

No?

Don't you have an inheritance?

Still can't afford it?

Then there are still family members.

Moreover, the terms such as malicious salary increase, malicious salary demands, malicious price reduction, adjustment of holidays and voluntary overtime were introduced from Kangtao in China decades ago.

Even the former president of Kangtao had proposed a proposal for talent mobility - that is, when the next company recruited employees from Kangtao, it would pay Kangtao a training fee.

But in the end, other companies ignored him.

These operations opened the eyes of a group of foreign investors and made them call themselves experts, but they also aroused a strange competitive spirit in everyone.

By the way, there are no capitalists in Kangtao, only conscientious entrepreneurs...

The topic has gone a bit far.

In short, Lai Xuan was very sure that his raid on the Night City branch had failed.

But the weirdness ends here.

As a loser, am I treating myself too well?

Apart from being restricted to the Ganbi Building and not being able to go out at will, other aspects didn't seem to be affected too much... I felt much more comfortable than when I was in Japan.

Even his good father didn't ask about it.

The private guards who followed him in the rebellion were merely placed under house arrest—most of these people were descendants of his former gang, the Iron Dragon.

Although it was a good thing that they were not liquidated, and even Adam Hammer, who was the most seriously injured, survived, but...

Strange.

It's just weird.

The whole thing exudes a sense of weirdness from beginning to end.

"…wait and hope?"

Lai Xuan had naturally read the book "The Count of Monte Cristo".

And this is all he has done in his life for decades - waiting for the opportunity and never giving up because of temporary failure.

Thinking back to when my memory was interrupted and I saw the ceiling of the room in the Blue Bi Building, that was the last thing I saw and the only remaining scene.

But he had a feeling that perhaps the current situation that was favorable to him had something to do with the other party.

Thinking of this, Lai Xuan's heart suddenly felt touched: Maybe that golden weirdo who looks like a hairy crab understands me.

"Lord Lai Xuan, the person you called has arrived."

At this moment, the bodyguard who was responsible for guarding him at the door came in and reported to him.

He nodded and put the cryogenic storage box containing the relic chip back into the secret compartment in the room.

After a while, a woman with short blue hair, dressed brightly, wearing a coat on the outside but revealing clothes underneath, walked in.

Evelyn Parker.

An excellent female masseuse who specializes in solving men's swollen head problems is also the takeaway he ordered.

Since I can't do anything right now, I'll just be a rich second-generation like I pretended to be before.

Wait and keep hope in your heart… It’s the same when waiting in bed, and the bitterness is also hope!

……

the other side

That is, while Lai Xuan's Blue Sky Building was doing things that had the same name as the building, Arasaka was also dealing with the mess left behind by this young master.

The first is to give his employees a week's paid leave - there's nothing wrong with that.

Arasaka is such a big company, it would not lower its own value for such a small matter.

Just arrange the shifts, have one person do the work of three, and then make use of the advanced rest adjustment system introduced by Kangtao.

The more troublesome thing is the reconstruction of the internal facilities...

The other floors were fine, but the one on the bottom floor obviously couldn't be cleaned up in a short time.

Although the circuit inside was not damaged, Lin Qiao still moved the simulated Chimera Box to a power plant on the outskirts of Night City - it was newly built by Arasaka.

On the surface, it was to compete with Kang Tao for the right to supply electricity to Night City, but in reality it was to charge the Chimera Box...so the loss didn't matter.

And considering the next steps to be taken, it is a high-profile one.

As for Lai Xuan's rebellion... Saburo Arasaka only left a "verbal order" to visit Night City next week, and then handed over the matter to Lin Qiao.

However, just when everyone in the city was wondering "what Arasaka is up to", Lin Qiao received a call from Lucy.

The unexpected kind.

"What? You said you and Sasha met another guy? And took him down?"

Although he had no emotions, his brain still couldn't react...or rather, he was completely confused.

"...No, are you sure that the two of you caught the person I mentioned, a time traveler from another world like me, and not some street thug?"

After receiving very affirmative answers from the two, Lin Qiao hung up the phone and sat silently in the office chair that originally belonged to Abernathy.

The system's notification sound did not sound, and the distance restriction was not lifted. There was still only a short time left for him to return...

So what on earth did you two catch?

Chapter 368 Welcome to Night City, Ciri

"You bitch! If you want to die, go to Taiping Island! I don't want to have to pay a fine and sit in jail because of you!"

On the streets of Westbrook, a driver was yelling at a white-haired girl who was trying to cross the road.

The driver was furious when he saw the white-haired girl apologizing and dressed strangely on the other side.

But because he still had things to do, he finally spat and drove away.

"Ah, this world is so strange... There's actually no horse in the carriage..."

Looking at the taillights of the receding car, the white-haired girl with a scar under her left eye muttered a few words and continued walking aimlessly on the sidewalk under the gazes of others.

Even in Night City, where there are many people wearing strange clothes and all kinds of crazy people appearing one after another, her dress is still unique.

She looked like a medieval swordswoman from Mewtwo, with long leather boots, leather pants, leather gloves, long white hair tied up at the back of her head, and black eyeshadow that added a lot of charm to her.

An exquisite long sword was carried on his back, and there were several leather pouches and a dagger hanging on the belt around his waist.

More importantly, her skin was exposed and showed no nerve insertion slots.

This is rare.

The girl's unique look attracted a lot of people's attention.

But people just glanced at it and no longer cared.

Dressing like this is probably to cater to the preferences of some rich people...

Hey!

I want to play too!

But just as people were amazed at the girl's dress, the girl was also curious about everything here.

"It seems that there are only humans in this world, and these statues... Is this a method used by the mage?"

Following the crowd across the road, Ciri kept looking left and right at the surrounding scenery.

Whether it was the advertisements on the street or the horseless iron carriage that almost hit her just now, they were all things she had never seen in her original world.

To be honest, compared to the skyscrapers that are dozens of meters high everywhere, the world she used to live in can be said to be small and shabby.

The only one that can be compared to it may be the capital of the Elves of Ain El - but the two have completely different styles.

The spells in this world... well, just think of them as spells for now.

Magic is so advanced that it has even landed on a planet that seems to be called the moon. I think the people living in this world must be very happy.

But then she shook her head and sighed: "But what should I do today?"

He reached for the leather bag at his waist, where there were a few gold coins that Ciri had obtained from other worlds.

This is also her only asset.

After staying here for about three or four hours and observing the living habits of the residents here, she made a sad discovery - the people here did not seem to use gold or silver coins for transactions.

Instead, he used some kind of transaction method that she couldn't understand... like a stroke in the void or something.

Or a piece of paper with numbers on it?

In short, this world is too different from the world she had lived in before, or even the world she had accidentally visited through her own abilities.

In this regard, it would be better to teleport her to the wilderness.

At least that way the witcher survival knowledge I learned in Kaer Morhen would come in handy.

He looked around to see if anyone was looking at him, and then punched a thug who was trying to take advantage of him.

Xili felt that she should first find a way to integrate into the local community.

For example, changing your outfit.

…Then she thought of the fact that she had no money, and sighed helplessly.

In order to avoid sleeping on the streets and starving, before that, she could only find a way to make some money in this world.

After all, she is not very familiar with her abilities, so she may have to stay for a while before she can leave.

"Let's go to the bar first."

Based on his past life experience, Shirley made this judgment.

Bars are a messy place, but it's still pretty easy to find out where they are by asking around in the newspapers... I hope it's the same in this world.

After asking a few passers-by, we finally arrived at the largest bar in Westbrook.

Because she was thought to be here to serve some important person, the Tiger Claw Gang at the door did not stop her from entering.

I found a place near the corner and sat there like a little transparent person.

Although it was still daytime, as Westbrook was a tourist attraction in Night City, there were quite a few people coming here to have fun.

Just as she expected at the beginning, she did understand a lot of things from here and then venting her emotions with alcohol and talking to people... although most of the time she couldn't understand what these people were saying.

But after a long time, at least the most basic situation can be understood.

For example, the world is not as peaceful as one might think, and organizations like the Chamber of Commerce rule the world.

"Hey, little girl, you've been sitting here for quite some time, what's wrong? The person you're waiting for hasn't come yet?"

Several members of the Tiger Claw Gang surrounded them with ill intentions.

They had been paying attention to Ciri for a long time - there was no way she wouldn't attract attention in her medieval swordswoman outfit.

Anyway, he sat in the corner for a long time without saying anything, and the front desk clerk asked him why he came here without even ordering a drink in such a long time.

The strange behavior made several Tiger Claw Gang members who were used to the chaos of Night City think that this was the prelude to some mercenaries coming to cause trouble.

And when you take a closer look, you will find that this woman is still very smooth, except for the scar on her face which is a bit regrettable...but she also has a unique charm.
