Nono, sitting on the sofa, exclaimed, "It sounds so busy!"
Lin Chen continued, "What has she been busy with lately? The company is managed by her and Su Enxi together, she shouldn't be this busy!"
Norma continued, "Compared to last month, your businesses have suffered varying degrees of business attacks this month: stock market attacks have increased by 120%, business attacks by 230%, and financial bond attacks by 170%..."
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, then instantly understood what had happened.
"Is someone targeting us? Tell me more!"
“I’m sorry!” Norma said, “If it’s about Kassel College, Norma will report it to you. But I don’t have the authority to access information about your businesses, so I can’t answer your questions!”
"Fine!" Lin Chen had no choice.
Since EVA's personality separated from Norma, EVA has possessed all of Norma's permissions and abilities, but Norma is now just a pure artificial intelligence.
Its server is located in the ice cellar of Kassel College, and it mainly handles matters related to Kassel College.
EVA modified its program to prevent it from investigating and attacking Lin Chen.
However, judging from this, EVA and Su Enxi are indeed extremely busy right now.
However, the disappearance of Mai Shutoku and Zero remains a mystery.
Lin Chen dialed the number of Jiu De Mai, but no one answered.
Then there's Zero, who also seems to be doing something else.
"These girls!" Lin Chen shook his head, deciding to ignore them for the time being.
Even though they disappeared, Lin Chen had complete peace of mind about them.
With their formidable strength, Mai Shude and Zero combined could even wipe out a modern reinforced battalion!
In comparison, Lin Chen should be more worried about the people he encounters.
Now, only Lin Chen, Nuonuo, and Su Xi were left in the villa.
By the time Lin Chen turned his phone away, Nuonuo and Susie had already put their phones down as well.
They each grabbed Lin Chen's arms, their eyes hooking at him like fishing hooks.
"What are you doing?"
Nono tapped Lin Chen's palm with her fingers: "Elbow, come inside with me!"
……
It wasn't until evening that Lin Chen finally saw the nanny team and EVA return.
The four of them rode in the same Rolls-Royce and headed straight for the villa's dining room after getting out of the car.
Nono and Susie were busy for a while, preparing a sumptuous dinner.
The four of them ran over happily and sat around the table. Lin Chen looked at them.
"What happened?" Lin Chen asked. "What's wrong with EVA Corporation?"
EVA said to Lin Chen, "Nothing's wrong, the company is fine!"
Lin Chen stared into EVA's eyes: "If you were still a projection, I could believe you when you said that, but now that you've become a human, increased intelligence doesn't mean you've learned to lie!"
"Um..." EVA instinctively shut up. "I'm sorry, boss! I've been hiding something from you!"
Lin Chen waved his hand: "Who will speak?"
EVA and Su Enxi exchanged a glance, then simultaneously sighed softly.
Su Enxi stood up: "Let me explain. The company has been under a lot of attack lately. Boss, this is my fault!"
“I’m not here to hear your self-criticisms, nor do I want to hear what I already know,” Lin Chen said. “The company is facing a huge problem, otherwise you wouldn’t have dragged Mai Shude and Zero into this and told me what happened!”
The four women exchanged glances, and in the end, EVA did the right thing.
“I told you so!” EVA said calmly, “As you can see, the company is developing too fast now, getting involved in various fields, and achieving quite good results!”
"We are a completely new force and have caused some damage and shock to the previously stable industry, affecting the interests of some American families and conglomerates!"
“They chose to target us, but thanks to my and Su Enxi’s business acumen, we resolved all those problems one by one.”
"But here's the crucial part: we were ambushed from the shadows, and the assassin was a hybrid!"
"We are all mixed-race, and the attack didn't pose a significant threat to us. However, this is a conflict between mixed-race individuals, and we've stumbled into a mixed-race battlefield in North America!" 5.5
“Before, it was all small-scale fighting; some simple hybrid killers were no match for me.”
"But the other side is clearly relentless and has sent out even more powerful hybrid assassins. We have no choice but to ask Mai Shude and Zero for help."
After saying this, EVA looked at Lin Chen cautiously.
Lin Chen simply nodded slightly: "That's something I overlooked. You did a great job! Anything else?"
EVA continued, "Our investigation revealed that the United States has thirteen conglomerates, all of which are backed by mixed-race individuals. These conglomerate families, united, form a vast and dangerous organization, much like the Secret Service in Western Europe!"
"Information on the thirteen families was easy to collect; there was relevant data in Norma's archives. However, the ruler of this organization was very mysterious. After a detailed investigation, I finally confirmed his identity."
"The leader of the North American mixed-race organization! A figure from the same era as Principal Angers! And also an old friend of Principal Angers!"
"Han Gao!"
181: Henkel's invitation to negotiations! Convince them with your fists!
Lin Chen knew this person.
Many people say that the world belongs to young people.
But for hybrids, the real power lies in the old ones who are about to die.
For example, Angers, and the Night Watch.
Take, for example, Han Gao.
He had contact with Henkel when Angers was still young.
Angers' Word of Power is Time Zero, making it extremely difficult to lock onto him within his domain.
But Henkel used the alchemical revolver and struck Angers in his field.
Now, more than a hundred years later, Angers is still as passionate as a young man, and the realm of time zero is constantly being strengthened.
Angers became the leader appointed by the Secret Party, while Henkel remained the leader of the North American mixed-race organization.
Now that Lin Chen's business is booming, it's inevitable that there will be some friction between him and Henkel's mixed-race organization.
Lin Chen nodded, then looked at EVA and asked, "You took Mai Shude and Zero out with you. Tell me what happened today."
Before EVA could speak, Su Enxi beat her to it!
"Let's talk business! When we business people meet someone from the same industry, we can only talk business together."
Lin Chen said, "You brought two deadly weapons. It sounds like your talks didn't go very smoothly!"
Su Enxi scratched her head. "Boss, you can see that too. That's right. We guessed before we even started the business that they weren't very sincere and would most likely resort to violence. Just to be on the safe side, we brought along the long-legged girl and the girl with no connections!"
"Did you use it?"
"Of course we used it! The other side had no intention of doing business at all, so we had to settle things with force." Su Enxi said smugly, "We're a long-legged girl and a girl with no connections, it's hard to lose, okay?"
Mai nodded: "The other party seems to be a young head of a family. He looks arrogant, but he is actually just an ordinary A-blood. His strength is so-so. Without using his Word of Power, he is no match for me at all!"
"And what was the ending?" Lin Chen asked.
“I’m keeping my breath in check,” said Mai Shude. “Since you haven’t said anything, I won’t let things get worse.”
Lin Chen shrugged: "It doesn't matter. Whether you slap him or kill him, a rift will definitely be created between us and the North American mixed-race people!"
EVA hurriedly asked, "Then what should we do? They are not just a simple force; in terms of their global standing, the North American organization is on par with the Secret Society of Western Europe!"
EVA seemed a little flustered. After all, she had once been a student at Kassel College, and the entire Kassel College belonged to the Secret Party.
Even Kassel College is such a behemoth, not to mention the Secret Service behind it.
It now seems that a North American mixed-race organization that can be compared with the Secret Party must also be very powerful!
Lin Chen stood up and patted EVA's head: "It's alright, this is an inevitable part of the company's development. It's like gangs fighting over territory; there always has to be this process!"
Su Enxi was very open-minded: "If I told you it was a mixed-race organization from North America, so what? Even if it's a dragon king, we'd still take it down!"
Mai Shude remained more rational: "The mixed-race organization in North America has been established for a long time, and its founder, Henrault, is a figure like Angers. We still need to be cautious when dealing with them!"
Susie raised her hand from the side: "I think so too. This is not a small matter. Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. In North America, we are always at a disadvantage."
Nono nodded: "For Henkel and his team, it's not just a business competitor that has emerged, but a new hybrid organization. It's no wonder they will take it seriously."
EVA said, "For a long-established mixed-race family, they must be trying their best to learn about us. Although our information is quite secretive, no one knows what kind of methods that family will use!"
A silence fell over the table; everyone knew what it meant.
Being remembered by a long-established mixed-race family is like being surrounded by a pride of lions on the savanna.
The silence at the dining table was shattered by the ringing of a cell phone; it was an EVA cell phone.
Under everyone's gaze, EVA slowly opened her phone, which contained an anonymous email.
She stared for a moment, then slowly raised her head to look at the people at the table.
"It's this mixed-race family from North America. Their manager, Henkel, has asked us... to negotiate!"
