Chapter 68: Veritas Correctional Facility
The morning sun began to shine down on the narrow alley where the Black Bio Pizza Burning Duct branch was located.
The glass door gleamed under the sunlight, revealing the inside of the store.
Tony, the branch manager, was wiping the glass behind the counter with a handkerchief, occasionally glancing at the small TV in the corner.
The anchor’s voice echoed softly.
[Another major M&A in Babel’s economic sector. The Babel Corporate Supervisory Office has announced in a statement that, based on Article 3 of the ‘Babel Corporate Restructuring Special Act,’ Skyheaven has been officially acquired by Sakamata Group.]
[With this decision, key commercial districts and several luxury residences in the eastern sector, previously owned by Skyheaven, will now be transferred to Sakamata. Industry insiders predict that this merger will cause significant shifts in the power dynamics of the eastern region.]
Tony stopped wiping and stared at the screen, clicking his tongue softly.
“It’s starting again.”
Despite being named the ‘Babel Corporate Restructuring Special Act,’ it was no different from the land wars of the medieval era.
It was a law designed to give megacorps a legitimate reason to swallow up smaller companies.
“Tony, ‘that order’ still hasn’t come in,” said Nikki, the part-timer, entering with a candy in her mouth as she tied on her apron.
Tony turned off the TV and looked back at Nikki.
