Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 69 Bait

The light green liquid in the rectangular geometrically cut life support cabin dropped rapidly, the cables connected to the body broke one by one, and the lifting panel opened with a "pop".

"——Asshole! This isn't over yet!!!"

Then, a naked, wet man suddenly opened his eyes, tore apart the scattered cables, and crawled out, roaring uncontrollably: "The Enlightened One! And that bastard! I'm going to drain your memories into idiots! Put them in a petri dish! Damn it! I—"

[Dear Mr. Yamashima Yukiji, you seem to be in an "irritating" state. Do you need medical attention?——]

"roll!"

An anti-gravity suspended micro drone approached, and its crystal blue projection searchlight just lit up. The man slapped it frantically, but the drone dodged it deftly.

However, the drone stopped talking about physiological conditions and changed its tone to repeat the report indifferently.

[Mr. Yamashima Koji, according to the message from Director Gabey, he asked you to go find him immediately after you wake up.]

Hearing the name "Gaboyi", the frenzy in Yamashima Koji's eyes subsided a little, and he suppressed his roar: "I know!"

Fifteen minutes later.

When Yukiji Yamashima got dressed, tidied himself, and stepped into the conference room on the top floor of the building, his expression froze when he looked at the figure in front of him.

The change in expression was subtle, but clearly visible through the prosthetic eye.

So, Dennis smiled and took the lead in saying hello.

"Good evening, Yamashima Koji."

"You too, Dennis."

Yamashima Koji gritted his teeth and replied word by word, then he ignored the other party and turned to look at another figure.

The holographic projection in the center of the conference room is constantly rotating and changing, accurately presenting the entire architectural and landform structure of Palose.

The man in a suit was staring at the holographic projection without looking up.

Looking at the other person's face that always seemed to have a cold expression, Yamashima Koji didn't dare to look directly at him. He lowered his head slightly and whispered, "Sir, I'm sorry, my mission failed."

"The bait I cast did catch something. They were Harold and Juniper from the Enlightened Ones, but I'm so sorry! I couldn't hold them back!"

"Oh, Juniper and Harold?"

Dennis spoke with interest, "After being severely damaged by us last year, the Enlightened Ones' first action group in Palose are the only ones left. They are indeed big fish. You can't take them down with just a 'swamp monster' and your second ring 'consensus'."

"But even so, it shouldn't be possible that you can't last more than a few minutes, right, Yamashima Yukiji?"

".Mr. Manager, in addition to Harold and Juniper, there is also a mercenary."

Hearing Dennis' words, Yamashima Koji gritted his teeth and made a clattering sound. He tried hard to ignore the other party and continued, "That guy is also a psychic. He should be a 'transcendent' of the first ring. He and Harold teamed up to defeat the 'puppet' I controlled."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Dennis' eyes lit up slightly: "His gender is not important. Gender is not important. Yamashima Yukiji, do you need my help? My reward is only--"

"Dennis! Get away from me with those disgusting thoughts of yours!"

Yamashima Koji growled and stared at the other person fiercely: "How ridiculous! How pathetic! No matter how hard you try, you can never become a Psychic like us!"

Dennis said nothing.

His expression suddenly turned ugly.

"What? You still want to fight me? Even though we're both senior executives, your 'light cone' exoskeleton isn't here! Are you worthy enough to fight me?!"

A flash of white light suddenly flashed in Yamashima Koji's pupils, and he roared, "If you don't want to be found naked when you regain consciousness, then—"

"enough."

At this moment, the man finally raised his head and uttered a syllable.

But Yamashima Koji turned a deaf ear to him, and the spiritual light in his eyes shone brighter and brighter.

Then a chilling sense of danger came over him.

"—I said, enough is enough."

Before he could say anything, a hand that looked like a natural person grabbed Yamashima Yukiji's throat and lifted him up.

The next moment, he was thrown aside, knocking over a series of tables and chairs. "Yamashima Koji, you are a psychic of the 'consensus' path, and you understand the dangers of losing control of your mind better than I do."

Gaboyi looked at the embarrassed man coldly: "Haven't you noticed yet? You have been showing signs of being 'out of control' these past few days! The so-called consensus is the consensus between you and others. After a large amount of mental and memory exchanges, there are always a few 'consensus' psychics whose minds collapse and turn into lunatics!"

Gabe's artificial eye lit up.

"From now on, your authority and position will be temporarily removed. You will receive 'mental adjustment' and 'psychological counseling' and other such things. Come back to me when you are stable again - this can be regarded as your punishment for failing the mission."

"Yes, sir," Yamashima Yukiji murmured.

Dennis spoke only after Yukiji Yamashima left.

"Boss, since Yamashima Yukiji has temporarily resigned, do you want me to take over his duties?"

"Well, how are you doing with the 'Song Shi' matter?"

"I have arranged personnel to monitor the Romond Welfare Home, Marico's daughter and other related personnel." Dennis immediately replied: "On the other hand, following the clue of 'Keng', I have traced that Song Shi had forged his identity and taken out underground loans. We are currently investigating the organization that issued the loans, and there will be results soon."

"Ah."

Gabey nodded slightly: "One thing at a time."

"Wait until you're done with the 'Keng' case, then take charge of Yamashima Koji's mission - I can give you the one-ring 'Transcendence' mercenary, but you have to bring 'Song Shi' back to me."

"I understand, Director."

Dennis lowered his head, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"—Dennis."

Gabey suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

Dennis looked up and saw his supervisor staring at him with a cold look.

"Be careful. I can tolerate your attempts in secret, but don't make too much noise, especially don't let the people from the 'Scientific Ethics Review Committee' know about it. Otherwise, you know the consequences."

Dennis' heart trembled, but then he felt an inexplicable anger.
".Yes, I understand."

He forced himself to suppress the emotion, not showing it, and answered in a low voice.

When Dennis also announced his departure, there was only one person left in the huge conference room.

Gaboy stared back at the hologram.

As he watched, the entire holographic projection began to change. In the convergence of huge data streams, high-precision pixels were constantly reorganized until, in the end, it turned into a scenic, large-scale building complex.

Not long ago, this high-end sanatorium, which was semi-affiliated with Jade Pharmaceuticals, was attacked, and three middle-level executives of Jade Pharmaceuticals who were on vacation there died on the spot.

Similar attacks had occurred before, but the scale of those attacks was far less than this one, so no one searched for them or connected them together.

A brand new, anti-corporate armed organization with plans and goals.

"All the people who were attacked in these attacks were related to the 'Old Industrial Zone Explosion' that year."

".Ah."

Gabey suddenly laughed.

"I thought you would be the ones to take the bait, but I didn't expect to hook up the group of Enlightened Ones instead."

"Oh, but it doesn't matter. The 'Three-Phase Base Project' has been thrown out. It's impossible for you - all of you - not to be tempted -"

From the beginning, it didn't matter whether Yukiji Yamashima could hold off the bait-taker.

The only role of this guy is to reveal part of the "Three-Phase Base Plan".

then.

Whether it was the group of "attackers" or the remaining "Enlightened Ones", they used the "Three-Phase-Based Plan" to lure out all the insects hiding in Palose and crush them one by one.

——In this way, I can give a beautiful answer to my upcoming resignation and transfer!
