Night Hacker Chapter 42: Brain Slave Gathering Energy

"Elizabeth's Q-level program really chose redemption?"

"Yeah, I called her and asked, what kind of salvation is indeed."

In a hilltop villa in the Acropolis, the water in the swimming pool is very clear. Sophia is lying on a sun lounger by the pool, wearing a colorful bikini, enjoying the warmth brought by the sun.

While sipping fresh juice leisurely, she talked with the videophone installed in the nearby marble stone pillar.

In the swimming pool, several pet dogs are swimming happily.

"I think Elizabeth is still determined." Sophia said leisurely, "Mostly she came back to make trouble from within. We don't care how Seth treats her, but it's better for our club to guard against her."

"Unfortunately, an overdriver has become a special person." A male voice came from the videophone.

"It's not the first place either. No matter how good the background is, there will always be some lunatics." Sophia rolled her eyes, "You are sorry for Elizabeth's body, right? Find an actor to take the body of a happy doll, and then Playing her will make you feel good."

"Sophie, you don't need to be jealous of her anymore. To be jealous of a person with a disability will make you a mentally retarded person."

"I don't want to listen to you to teach me, my work is done, what about the brain slave you promised me?"

"I've picked one for you, a descendant of a supernatural being, very diligent, and the computing power should be very good, you will be satisfied."

Hearing this, Sophia looked at the pet dogs swimming in the pool, biting the straw and smiling.

"Then I'll try you three vines to see if your performance is that good."

……

At seven o'clock in the morning, the Santo Securities sales office located in the center of Jianggu District became busy.

The hall was full of noise, retail investors were talking about yesterday's stock market situation, today's news, and possible market conditions.

And in the office of the sales department, the employees who came to work on time also started to work, the meeting was held at eight o'clock, and the market opened at nine o'clock.

"Where is today's "Liuguang Industry News"? Why can't I find it?"

"Ah, section chief... I'm sorry! I'll find you a copy right now."

"Quick, quick!"

Kazuya really wanted to curse, so he waved away the panicked newcomer to act quickly, this newcomer, how could such an important newspaper as "Liuguang Industry News" be missed?

He scratched his head and looked around the small office divided into desks, where a dozen men were crowded and busy.

This branch recruits more than 300 new salesmen every year, but half of them can only work for one year. After three years, 90% of them can't stand it anymore. District and other places forever farewell.

After graduating from Etani University, Kazuya joined the securities sales department of Santo Corporation.

Members are divided into seven levels, and then there are deputy directors, directors, deputy counselors, second-level deputy counselors, and the counselors are the department heads.

It took him ten years to go from a first-level member to a class leader and be able to lead the class.

Ten years of merit is nothing, he was able to become the head of the section so quickly, and he was promoted to a higher level in almost a year, all because of his performance.

When he is a member, his performance every day is ranked first;

When he was the head of the department, his department performance was ranked first every day.

Stock trading, bonds, funds, futures, various financial products...

Most of the company's employees can't remember everything, and they can hardly understand the sales targets apportioned by the head office;

"Chairman, here we come, Streamer Industry News."

The newcomer came back fairly quickly, sweating profusely, and handed him a newspaper that still smelled of ink.

As soon as Kazuya took the newspaper, he flipped through it, and sat down in his office chair, where there was an open Mito computer on the desk. He also browses news information online, but for now, these newspapers still have more information.

And over the years, he has learned how to read newspaper news.

Although the New World Bank is said to be integrated, every big company is competing with each other. Even within Santo Company, sometimes one club competes with another club, and everyone is always in the same arena.

The humbleness of capital, Kazuya always said so, once you fall behind, you will become a loser and be thrown out.

"Chairman, it's almost eight o'clock!"

Kazuya read the newspaper and took notes. He didn't finish his cup of coffee. The time passed and the meeting was about to begin.

He had no choice but to get up, and asked more than a dozen people from the upper department to rush out of the office.

Everyone walked through the crowded corridor and came to the large meeting room.

They came a bit late today. Dean Maeda, Deputy Dean Okawa, and people from several other classes were all present, almost all of them were men. As soon as they sat down, the meeting started immediately.

"The new instruction from the headquarters is to work hard to sell the 'City Walled Area Repurchase Renovation Fund', and the more high-end customers are attracted to buy it, the better."

Department Chief Maeda conveyed the new tasks of the head office, followed by announcing the performance tasks of each class member and member, as well as the performance completion status of the previous day. Unsurprisingly, the class led by Kazuya again ranked first.

At the end of the meeting, Maeda Department Chief yelled like every day:

"Towards the goal, keep going!"

"Hi!" Everyone stood up and bowed, and responded loudly.

Kazuya responded almost as loudly as he had for the past ten years.

Go ahead, Kazuya, sooner or later you will be the one who takes the lead.

Don't listen to those street rats saying there's no future here, those people don't work hard and are stupid and just complain all day long.

You are different, you are a college student, you are an elite, and you are a class leader.

As long as you continue to work hard like this and accumulate years of merit, you will become the deputy counselor, and then the department head.

You will enter the headquarters in the central area, reach the bustling center, and let your children go to the best schools...

You and your wife will wear beautiful formal clothes, walk in the party venues of those high-end hotels, socialize with those highly educated and high-powered upper-class people, drink red wine, and talk about art...

Streamer City is a land of dreams, and you will realize your dream of streamer.

With such a mood, Kazuya returned to the small office and led his subordinates to continue to study various news and news.

As soon as the time came to nine o'clock, the stock market opened, and suddenly it was like a war. There were constant shouts of "buy!" and "sell" from the business hall downstairs. Everyone in the office is on the phone, operating the computer, helping customers to trade, lobbying customers to trade...

This school is noisy and busy, which makes people breathless.

When the market was closed at noon, everyone just had a quick lunch in the office, and that was all.

The battle continued from one to three in the afternoon, and at three o'clock, the trading hours of the Liuguang Stock Exchange ended.

Their work is not over yet, there are still various bonds and financial products to be prepared, especially the Walled City Repurchase and Renovation Fund just handed over by the head office.

It's a huge financial scheme, and it's very attractive, but people are afraid to invest in it.

Because the Walled City District is a hard bone, those Walled City guys will not easily agree to Santo's buyback.

What Heye and the others are trying to do is to get people from all walks of life in this city, especially those in the Walled Areas, to contribute money, as much as possible, to support the repurchase and transformation. go.

But sales are not only done in the office, but also have to go out. After the market closed, more than half of the department went out to solicit customers.

Kazuya used to run all over the city, but after becoming a section chief, he was in charge of overall planning.

At this time, the phone on the desk rang, and Kazuya picked up the receiver, "Hello... Department Chief? Hi!"

Several members around looked at each other in confusion, the section chief the department head was looking for? They saw the face of the head of the section change, but it was a bit of surprise that couldn't be suppressed. The excitement lost a bit of his usual calmness, and he was even dazed.

"Hi, I see... Thank you, Dean!"

Kazuya put down the microphone with trembling hands, looked at the curious students, and said as calmly as possible:

"The head of the department told me that there are important people from above who want to meet me, and let me go to Wanfu Hotel in the central area tomorrow."

Everyone was stunned, and then cheered, "Section Chief, you did it!" "Great!" "Section Chief, you are going to the headquarters!"

"It's too early to say this!" He didn't want to be too publicized by them, so he said seriously: "Everyone works first."

This news inspired each of them, the class leader is about to rise to the top, and he is only in his thirties, so young!

They are really happy for the section chief. Their company implements the "7-11" work system, with only a few days off in a year. They usually work seven days a week, from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm .

Over the years, we have been facing each other for a long time, especially the old members, and there is a special feeling of brotherhood between them.

This is a feeling that belongs to men. They know each other better than their family members.

At six o'clock in the evening, most of the salesmen who went out came back, and only a few were able to continue socializing at night.

On this night, Kazuya and the others were busy again until eleven o'clock before leaving work.

A group of middle-aged or young men left the company with exhausted bodies, and walked shoulder to shoulder on the neon-lit rainy night streets of Jianggu District, happily humming songs about male ambition.

Then, they walked into a frequented izakaya on the street, talked and laughed, had a few drinks and had supper.

It was almost twelve o'clock, and a few people had to go to the custom shop they often go to. I heard that there were a few new girls.

But He didn't go, he wasn't in his twenties, he didn't have the physical strength he had back then, and he couldn't fight for a day even if he didn't sleep all night. He is tired, there is an important meeting tomorrow, and there is a wife and child at home.

After saying goodbye to the class members, Kazuya braved the night rain, carrying his briefcase, and hurriedly caught the tram to go home.

When he got home, it was almost one o'clock in the morning.

Ten years of hard work allowed him to provide a relatively spacious small apartment with two bedrooms and one living room. This is Jianggu District, where every inch of land is expensive.

"I'm back..." He also said softly when he took off his shoes on the porch, but no one responded to him.

Both his wife and his five-year-old son have fallen asleep, and this has been the case for almost six years after marriage. He goes to and from get off work, goes to and from get off work...the time he can spend with his family may not even add up to a day.

Kazuya exhaled tiredly, walked through the small living room, and put down the briefcase on the sofa.

While loosening his tie, he walked towards the master bedroom, and sure enough, he saw his wife was fast asleep on the bed. He opened the closet to find a set of clothes to take a shower and change before going to bed, but when he opened the closet, he was startled.

"Sukiko..." Kazuya murmured, there were rows of new clothes in the closet, and the price of each piece would not be low.

He looked at his sleeping wife and patted his forehead helplessly.

With his salary, this is very hard work...

It's just that he knows that Shuzi also has her pressure. While she wants to take good care of the child, she also has to participate in the company's wife social circle. If she loses face, he loses face... and she is beautiful, so he will be valued .

Shuzi was his college classmate, and he knew who she was.

But I agreed to buy a videophone this year, so when will I be able to buy it...

"Yes, I will buy it soon." Kazuya cheered himself up again, he had already been appreciated by the headquarters.

Tomorrow, maybe tomorrow, he will get a new assignment to the headquarters!

……

The lobby of Wan Fu Hotel is spacious and bright, and the high circular dome makes it look like a grand theater.

Kazuya is wearing a straight-pressed black formal suit today, his black leather shoes are polished shiny, and the golden buttons on the brand new black briefcase he is carrying are also shiny, his beard is clean-shaven, and his hair is combed with hairspray Woke up.

He is fairly tall, with a mature and vigorous face.

This is the first time in five years that he did not go to work. He even went to work on the day the child was born. The last time he did not go to work was because he fell ill.

There is no violation of harmony for him walking here like this.

The chairs and sofas in the lobby are filled with high-end guests, including ladies in printed kimonos, artists and stars in avant-garde dress.

They are decorated in different ways, and their hair is dyed in various bright colors, which only makes people feel fashionable.

They talked and laughed happily, but they didn't seem noisy, it just made people feel that the place was full of energy.

Kazuya walked steadily, and was taken by an assistant who had been waiting for him to take the elevator to a VIP reception room on the upper floor.

"You are here, please sit down. I heard that you are very capable of working, and you have a hardworking and smart mind."

There was only one young woman in her early twenties in the luxurious reception room. On the way just now, the assistant told him that this was Sophia Amick, the daughter of Gasboy Group.

"Miss Amick, you are overrated." Kazuya said modestly, and sat down on a small sofa in the middle of the reception room.

The situation in front of him was completely unexpected, and the preparations made last night seemed useless...

How could it be Miss Amick?

She has beautiful and fluffy long golden hair, and she is wearing a hollow silver long dress. She has a noble temperament, which makes him dare not look at her too much.

"I hope you won't let me down."

Sophia walked towards the small sofa from the floor-to-ceiling panoramic window, put down the glass of red wine she was drinking just now on the bar counter, and while looking at Kazuya's obviously puzzled face, she slowly walked around behind the small sofa and stood there behind.

"I heard that you still have extraordinary talent, I'll see if that's the case."

Sophia suddenly raised her hands, and pressed Kazuya's head. Suddenly, the two palms released countless entangled blood threads, which quickly pierced Kazuya's scalp from between Kazuya's black hair.

The blood thread directly penetrates the brain and connects those cortical cranial nerves.

"Miss Amick..."

Before Kazuya could say a word in surprise, his facial muscles twitched violently in the sudden fear, and the briefcase in his hand fell to the bright marble floor.

His eyes were wide open, and he felt that his mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts, which were constantly distorted and deformed...

Blood-eater professional department, J-level program: Brain Slave Gathering

Sophia's eyes also narrowed slightly, building a long-term connection with the mind network with this brain slave.

Brain slaves gather energy, and blood eaters can continuously receive their offerings by raising a controllable number of brain slaves.

The brain of the brain slave is constantly running, constantly generating computing power, continuously improving the host's program 24 hours a day, and giving the host better and faster mental recovery, personality recovery, etc.

A brain slave is a consumable, just like a memory or a graphics card.

After using it for a period of time, the computing power will slowly decrease, and when it is exhausted, the brain slave will die suddenly.

But no matter what happens to the brain slave, whether it is alive or dead, attacked or mad, it will not affect the host at all.

The host can also change brain slaves at any time, and as the level rises, the number of brain slaves that can be controlled will increase; and more brain energy will improve the host faster. It's a good cycle.

"Not bad, really good..."

Just when Kazuya let out a muffled scream and the veins on his face were about to burst, Sophia suddenly laughed.

This Santo Securities employee is really good. He should be fine for a year and a half with his head.

Counting this new one, she now has five brain slaves, and she can quickly become a third-program user only by their combined energy.

In comparison, Elizabeth really became a special person, a hero class? redemption?

You still have to spend time and effort. Only when others appreciate you can you get the energy of others?

Compared with Brain Slave Gathering Energy, Salvation is simply a garbage program.

Moreover, Salvation is Q-level, and Brain Slave Gathering is only J-level.

Sophia's Q-level program "Brain Suction" has not yet been used.

So what about overdrive? Compared to Blood Eater, a hero is a trash job.

……

The night rain fell on the Jianggu District again, and it was erratic, and the old lamps in the corridor of the apartment gave off a faint light.

"Honey, you are back!"

Today is also a tense day for Shuzi. She didn't go out and stayed at home.

She knew in the morning that her husband was called by the people above to meet in the central area. In a day, she didn't know how many wives called and gossiping and congratulating, and they all said that they would be transferred to the headquarters~IndoMTL.com~ Either be promoted to deputy counselor.

But my husband seems to be back a bit early, not even eight o'clock in the evening...

Kazuya took off his leather shoes, put down his briefcase, his face was expressionless, and his appearance seemed to be different.

Shuzi frowned slightly, isn't things going well? What's the matter...

"You bought too many clothes." Kazuya said bluntly, obviously talking, but like a walking corpse, "We can't afford it."

"I'm sorry..." Shuzi immediately responded in a low voice.

"Father!" At this time, General Tai rushed out from the living room and said happily, "You got off work so early today?"

Children don't know that leaving get off work early today is probably a bad thing.

Although I don't get along much with each other, when I can get along with my children, I am very enthusiastic and never lose my temper.

But now, Kazuya dragged his weary footsteps straight past without even looking at his son, just murmured:

"Study hard, work hard, move towards the goal, and keep going."

Shuzi had no choice but to pull the general into her arms, and whispered: "Your father is too tired from work, let him rest for a while."

It seems that there is no hope for transfer and promotion.

"Oh." Will too vaguely understand, "Mom, when are we going to play with grandpa, I want to eat his croquettes."

"In a few days, when your father is free..."

Shuzi's voice became softer. Seeing her husband turn around and walk into the living room, she also felt a burst of heartache.

Things are not good, she doesn't want to make her husband angry anymore, he doesn't like to go back to the Kabukicho area.

He, Kitano Kazuya, is not Yakuza, but a college student, an office worker, a middle class, and is the head of Kitano.
