NIKKE, Swordmaster Ark Succubus Daily

Yes, it's someone else's fault!

The CEO position for Missillis is now within reach; his next goal is a seat on the family board of directors.

Those old fogies should retire...

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

The coffee his secretary had made was probably ready... Lemon said "Come in" and continued staring at the computer.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his secretary walk up to him, but she didn't put anything down.

Lemon asked impatiently, "Where's the coffee?"

The secretary didn't answer, which angered Lemon, who turned and asked angrily, "I'm asking you..."

However, all that awaited him was a silencer stuffed into his mouth.

He initially thought it was his secretary standing next to him, but it turned out to be a person wearing a black mask and a suit.

"What does Nissang want?" a flustered Lemon asked vaguely.

But Li Zuoyi snatched the mouse from his hand and started searching through his computer.

One file after another was opened, and one by one, Missilis's secrets were examined by him, but he wasn't interested and immediately skipped over them.

There seemed to be nothing there, but Li Zuoyi inserted a memory card containing the recovery program that he had just had Anick write.

A few seconds later, a large number of files were restored.

Finally, Li Zuoyi found it in a folder that had already been deleted.

A list of loan sharks was found, containing names identical to the attackers and their detailed addresses in the outer district.

A document containing diagrams of human modification detailed how to create extremely low-cost soldiers using remote-controlled prosthetics. Li Zuo glanced at it, noting that the replaced human organs could be sold, thus reducing costs…

……

There are still many documents like these, but at least these two are related to the attack.

Li Zuoyi looked at Lemon, but the other party kept shaking his head, saying that it had nothing to do with him.

Li Zuoyi picked up his phone from the table, unlocked it using his iris scanner, and found his chat history with Niki, in which he clearly asked about the progress of the cleanup work on Krau.

So Li Zuoyi fired without hesitation.

With a muffled thud, blood splattered onto the glass behind Lemon.

He himself was tilting his head back, his mouth agape, and could see the ground through the bloody hole.

Then Li Zuoyi quickly copied the file, took a few photos of Lemon, and left.

Just like when he arrived, thanks to the security map sent by Anik, Li Zuoyi easily bypassed the security guards of Missilis and walked out of the Missilis headquarters smoothly.

'Didi didi didi'

On the way back to the outpost, Li Zuoyi's phone rang.

It was Anderson.

Li Zuo answered the phone and asked, "What's up?"

“I’ve heard you seem to be considering giving up on Shuen,” Anderson said.

"Didn't you tell me to give up?" Li Zuoyi retorted.

“Do you think I’d believe that?” Anderson said. “Whatever you’re trying to do, stop right now.”

"why?"

"Let me put it more clearly," Anderson sighed. "Even if you find evidence that Shuen is innocent, the higher-ups at Ark might not give up on Missilis. The evidence you submit might not get any response at all."

These people are practically obsessed with eating meat.

This situation was entirely within Li Zuoyi's expectations...

"So, you shouldn't do it now..."

Listening to Anderson's words, Li Zuo glanced at the Missilis Building in the distance. It seemed he had spoken too late...

The person has been killed...

“Did you hear that?!” Anderson asked.

"Yes, yes." Li Zuoyi decided to give him a perfunctory answer for the time being.

"That's good."

Anderson finally hung up the phone and went to rest.

Li Zuo glanced at the files on his phone, added and modified some things, and sent a message to Anik: "Anik, could you please send these files to other people for me?"

Anik seems to have been very busy lately, and she only responds when I try to contact her in the last couple of days.

I don't know what she's doing.

[Who should I send this to?]

"Everyone in the entire Ark," Li Zuoyi replied.

Since the evidence he sent to the higher-ups might go unanswered, he decided to send the documents directly to all the residents of the Ark and let them decide who was guilty, Shuen or Lemon.

Li Zuoyi compiled the documents related to the attack and captioned the photo of Lemon's death with the following text: 'By the time you see this photo, I will have already committed suicide...'

Although the reason for the suicide is somewhat far-fetched, a second autopsy will certainly be performed after Lemont's body is discovered, and it should be found that he actually died from homicide.

But at that time, did such things really still matter?

Even if those powerful and influential people wanted to hide it, they couldn't possibly keep it a secret.

After a brief silence, Anik asked, "Is everything ready? Shall we send it?"

Li Zuoyi chose yes without hesitation.

An email was transmitted to everyone's mobile phone on the Ark in an instant.

……

morning.

Li Zuoyi yawned as he got up and went downstairs. Anis, who was watching TV, saw the commander come down and immediately shook him, still half asleep, saying, "Commander! It seems there's been a turn for the better regarding Shuen's situation!"

"What happened?" Li Zuo asked knowingly.

"Quick, look at your phone!" Anies simply held up his phone, which displayed the contents of a document he had edited in the middle of the night. "Look! Look!"

"Wow...really?" Li Zuoyi said casually after glancing at it.

“They said on TV that the police will reinvestigate this matter…” Anies said excitedly, “In that case, we don’t need to prepare to escape to the surface anymore.”

I didn't know you had made preparations to escape the Ark...

Taking the water glass from Labi, Li Zuoyi looked at the TV and asked, "How's the situation now?"

Anies changed the channel and pointed to a small mustachioed man on the TV, saying, "He's just denying it now."

Li Zuoyi spat out a mouthful of water.

Lemont? How could he still be alive?!

Chapter Seventy-Five: Showing Sincerity

The television was broadcasting Lemont's statement at a press conference refuting the rumors: "This malicious rumor has caused extremely serious damage to my reputation. After everything is investigated, I will sue those who spread the rumors..."

Li Zuoyi once received an award from Lemon and saw his face up close; he looked exactly like the person on TV now.

But here's the question: who did he kill last night?

Is it a substitute?

However, he had checked Lemon's phone last night, and there were many chat logs and other information that proved that the person sitting in the office last night was Lemon himself.

what happened……

"What is Shu En doing now?" Li Zuoyi asked.

“She just got up and was still complaining about how bad the breakfast at the outpost was,” Lapi said.

"Tell her to get ready, I'll be there in a bit," Li Zuoyi said.

"Yes."

Li Zuoyi casually ate a few bites of the apple-flavored poppy made by Lapi, changed into his military uniform, and headed to Niki's dormitory.

He went to Shuen's room and saw Mihara and Yuni on guard duty. Yuni was yawning and was obviously a little sleepy.

“You two have worked hard standing all night. The special forces will come to take over later,” Lapi said.

"I understand, Yuni, hang in there a little longer." Mihara gently patted Yuni, who was leaning against her thigh.

"Where is Shu En?" Li Zuoyi asked.

“I’ve already washed up and am waiting for you,” Mihara said.

Leaving Lapi outside, Li Zuo pushed open the door and entered the room. Shu En was already sitting at the interrogation table, intently watching the screen on her phone, her expression not good.

Seeing him walk in, Shuen held up her phone and asked, "Did you make this?"

The phone displayed the message that Li Zuoyi had asked Anick to send last night.

After closing the door, Li Zuoyi walked to the interrogation table and said, "How is that possible? If he were dead, how could he still be standing at a press conference?"

“These technical documents are all genuine… I can tell.” Shuen looked at his phone again, nervously biting his finger. “My technology is being used as the basic technology for producing soldiers… This is a crime of sabotaging the Ark… Misilis might…”

It was clear that Shuen was very nervous. Li Zuoyi said, "But there are advantages as well. The government's investigation is now focused on Lemon."

Although the photo of Lemont's suicide was determined to be fake, the technical documents and photos of Lemont's office that were disclosed aroused the suspicion of the Ark government. Even if the investigation revealed that it was fake, the government's top officials had to take it seriously.

One is an attack, the other is subversion, especially since it's a mega-corporation like Missillis trying to replace them, which is unacceptable to the government leadership.

Even though the top management of Ark knew that Ark was governed by three major companies and that they had enormous privileges, there were still some things that couldn't be made public.

But Shu En looked up at Li Zuoyi and said, "I think that photo is real."

Looking into her purple eyes, Li Zuoyi could see a certain emotion in them, like...trust?

“It’s true, it’s true. Why are you looking at me like that?” He changed the subject, saying, “If Lemont is dead, then who’s at the press conference?”

"Probably a stand-in sent by the family's board of directors," Shuen said somewhat dejectedly. "Anyway, voice and face can be changed with technology."

This means that even if the family board of directors wanted to use a substitute, they didn't want to use her anymore.

The family board meeting, Lemon's cell phone... Li Zuoyi felt that things were getting more complicated.

There was a knock on the door. Li Zuo went to open it and found it was Lapi. Her expression was a little strange.

She said, "Commander, we have guests."

"who is it?"

"Lemon of Missilis".

……

On the road outside the command center, Li Zuoyi saw Lemon and his maid Niki.

Lemon was looking around, seemingly very interested in the outpost. Seeing Li Zuoyi approaching, he leaned on his ornate ruby ​​cane and smiled, saying:

"Nice to meet you, Commander Li Zuoyi. I am... um, Lemon."

Li Zuoyi walked up to him, with Labi, Yinhua, and Mihara protecting him from behind.

He wondered: We've just met... Could he really be a stand-in?

"What brings you here?" Li Zuoyi observed the 'Lemon' in front of him.

“I’m here to invite you to a family dinner.” Lemon was unfazed by the suspicious look in the man’s eyes and added, “Oh, and don’t forget to bring Shuen.”

The Feast at Hongmen… Li Zuoyi politely declined: “Hahaha, I’m not going.”

Faced with a direct rejection, Lemon was not angry. He raised his hand and said, "It seems I have to show my sincerity."

Sincerity? When Li Zuoyi saw the maid Niki, who looked like a porcelain doll, walk forward, she raised her head, her eyes widened slightly, and a red glow slowly appeared around the edge of her black pupils.

'boom'

He heard a heavy thud behind him. Li Zuo turned around and saw Lapi, Yinhua, and Mihara lying on the ground with empty eyes, as if they had lost consciousness.
