Chapter 89 Intertwined Memories
V had been shot in the head by Dexter DeShawn, but fortunately the caliber of the bullet was not large and it just got stuck in the gap of V's skull, so he didn't die.
If DeShawn had used a shotgun to blow V's head off, V and Johnny's souls would have long since flowed away along with their brains and blood before the Relic chip could take effect.
The only good news now is that V can still be saved.
But the bad news is that the Relic chip has been activated, and Johnny Silverhand's personality consciousness is irreversibly starting the soul downloading process!
"Mr. Leon, I know you have a relationship with Arasaka Yorinobu, but since I saved V's life, please let me take him to the Arasaka board of directors to identify Arasaka Yorinobu as the real murderer of his father."
Goro Takemura was leaning against the wall, breathing heavily with fatigue. Fortunately, he arrived at the scrapyard first and shot the fat guy DeShawn to death.
Otherwise, V would eventually be destroyed by Deshawn or Arasaka's agents!
In addition, before sending V here, Goro Takemura defeated a team of Arasaka agents alone.
The ups and downs were quite difficult.
Of course, it was also thanks to Ott Cunningham who brought people to support in time, which allowed Goro Takemura and V to arrive safely at Victor's prosthetic clinic.
"How can you be sure that Arasaka Yorinobu is the real murderer of Saburo? Do you have any evidence now?"
Li Ang still maintained a sufficiently cautious attitude and did not look at this incident with preconceived ideas.
In fact, he didn't care about the life or death of the old man Saburo Arasaka at all. Even if it was really Arasaka Yorinobu who killed Saburo, it would not affect his alliance with Yorinobu.
Unless Arasaka Yorinobu chose to backstab LA Company, there was no need for Leon to help Takemura Goro find out the truth.
"Ahem... I took advantage of the chaos to check Saburo-sama's body and found that he was strangled to death by someone. At that time, only Arasaka Yorinobu had a motive to commit the crime!"
Goro Takemura's tone was very firm. The conflict between Saburo and Yorinobu was known to the world. Arasaka Yorinobu, who was forced into a corner, was very likely to have committed a crime in anger.
Of course, without concrete evidence to show the real situation, Goro Takemura still had no way to deal with Arasaka Yorinobu.
"Mr. Li Ang, I just want to find out the truth and let Master Sanlang rest in peace, so V's confession is very important."
"please!"
Looking at Goro Takemura's loyal appearance, Li Ang didn't know what to say. Takemura was a bit blindly loyal, but he didn't have a bad heart.
Such a loyal bodyguard will not rest until the real murderer of Saburo is killed.
"Rest your soul in the underworld... Ha! This old immortal has already imprinted his consciousness on the divine carriage server."
Li Ang snorted in his heart.
He had already known the situation of AI Saburo Arasaka through the AI Red Queen lurking in the Mikoshi server, and he also knew what Arasaka Hanako's plan was.
Leon could have ordered the AI Red Queen to swallow Saburo Arasaka's consciousness in one gulp, but he was not in a hurry to do so, because the fierce struggle within Arasaka was what he wanted to see.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Takemura, V is the person I want now. As for whether he wants to follow you to identify Arasaka Yorinobu, it depends on whether he is willing to do so."
"If you can convince him to go, then I won't stop you two."
Leon did not intentionally favor any party. He did not want to interfere in the internal affairs of the Arasaka family. The only thing he cared about at the moment was V's life!
"Okay... I will definitely try my best to convince V." Goro Takemura nodded and said nothing more.
At this moment, Lucy, who was staying at the company headquarters to handle important matters, suddenly sent Leon a video message from President Miles.
The title of this video is also very concise, with only a small line of text: Metal War Plan!
According to the main content of this message, President Miles decided to place a batch of arms orders worth tens of billions of euros at LA Company, starting a huge war of unification of the new America. "Morgan, come back to the company headquarters with me now, we have a big business coming!" Li Ang smiled and called Morgan Blackhand to the side.
"That old woman again? Haha, she is the God of Wealth of our company!" Morgan Blackhand teased mercilessly.
"Mann, you and Rebecca stay here and watch. Don't let anyone kidnap V. If anything goes wrong, I'll hold you responsible. Do you understand?"
Before leaving, Li Ang did not forget to remind Mann.
"Don't worry, boss! I'll do the job, don't worry, that guy won't get away." Mann patted his chest and responded confidently.
Immediately, Leon and Morgan Blackhand drove away quickly, leaving only Mann and Goro Takemura, staring at each other.
Takemura Goro: "What are you looking at?"
Mann: "Look at you."
Takemura Goro: “…”
……
In the dim prosthetics clinic, the dim light from the ceiling woke V's slightly sleepy eyes.
V felt a piercing pain in his head, as if someone had taken a needle and stabbed it into his brain, stirring it back and forth hundreds of times.
The moment he opened his eyes and woke up, V remembered everything he saw in his dream.
He felt like he had become a different person, a rebellious boy wearing sunglasses, holding a guitar and singing rock songs under the Arasaka Tower.
Afterwards, he rushed into the Arasaka Tower and killed the Arasaka guards one by one with a kinetic pistol. Later, he seemed to have seen Saburo Arasaka!
In addition, all kinds of obscure emotions are like a tangled ball of wool.
The hatred for Arasaka and the love for a woman he had never met were like intertwined DNA spirals, weaving an extremely chaotic memory in V's mind.
"I...what happened to me?"
V's weak voice was particularly obvious in the silent clinic. Members of Mann's team, who were so tired that they closed their eyes to rest, immediately gathered around him, but were pushed aside by Old V.
"Go away! Don't block me from seeing the patient!"
After that, Victor came to V. When he saw this familiar face, V finally felt a sense of security. "Old Victor, what's wrong with me?"
"Am I still alive?"
In his chaotic and vague memory, V only remembered that he was shot down by DeShawn, and he had no idea what happened afterwards.
"V, you were already in a state of unconsciousness when you came, so I gave you a dose of haloperidol, which should relieve your symptoms. You should feel much better now."
After hearing what Victor said, V touched his head and it seemed that he didn't feel as uncomfortable as before, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.
It's like there's something extra in my brain.
"V, do you remember me?"
At this moment, Ott Cunningham walked up to V. Looking at the strange yet familiar woman in front of him, V immediately remembered where he had seen her.
In the laboratory of Arasaka Tower!
