Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

Chapter 10 This city contains my life

Arasaka Tower.

The thirty-third floor is the office area of ​​the Counterintelligence Department.

Carter returned to his work station uneasily with the chip, turned on the computer, inserted the chip, and read the mission information about Cybermaniac James in the chip.

Finally, the symbol option in Yiyan stopped at the copy interface.

[Yes/no copy? 】

Carter was hesitant. When he thought about his boss's interrogation just now, he began to feel more uneasy. He didn't know what the other party's purpose was.

"It couldn't be that he was discovered."

Carter fell into severe self-doubt, and his mind was full of searching for traces of when he had leaked.

"It's absolutely impossible for him to know his situation even though he has just returned from overseas."

"If there was really any evidence, I would have kicked him out of Arasaka long ago."

"But there are definitely signs of suspicion. He wouldn't think that being attacked by the Animal Gang was a leak of information."

"If this is really the case, no matter how he checks, there will be no results, and he will be safe."

"It's a pity that he didn't die in this attack, otherwise I would still have a chance to compete higher."

As if he had made up his mind, Carter chose to copy. The electronic prosthetic eye recorded all the data, and then took out a new chip and inserted it into the nerve slot in his neck.

As a person from the counter-intelligence department, he basically does not transmit any information through the Internet. Public networks are full of corporate snoops and network surveillance surveillance.

After Carter copied the information, he immediately stood up and walked out.

At this time, Tang Yu began to sit in front of his office, browsing the task-related graphic and video information through the computer while making his own inferences.

There are probably not many people who can really see the details of this experimental, military-grade Sianwestein. Even if it goes to the black market, it may be sold as an ordinary model of Sianwestein. After all, there are implants that are not officially authorized by military technology. It's very risky, and the people who buy such implants are often desperadoes.

If it is confirmed that the NCPD did not obtain the prosthetic body and dispose of it privately, and Military Technology has no intention of taking back the prosthetic body, then there is only one possibility, and that is that it was intercepted.

Perhaps out of greed, poverty, or other reasons, the person who stole this prosthetic body did not realize that he had been involved in the crisis.

It didn't take long.

Jack called to inform Superintendent Stings of the intelligence. It was completely confirmed that the NCPD had not obtained the prosthetic body. The prosthetic body had disappeared before the Cybermaniac's body was transported to the NCPD center. He also said that he did not want to do anything about the company. Get involved and don't ask him for information in the future.

After hearing the news conveyed by Jack, Tang Yu couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"Heywood still hates the company as much as ever."

"And as a company dog, I actually have a real friend in Heywood."

"Oh, it only means that I am a cyberpunk under the skin of a company."

"Am I right, Jack?"

Jack: "I think you don't want to stay in that snake's nest anymore. Who knows where the sudden fangs will come from."

Tang Yu did not respond directly to Jack's words, but just agreed and said: "Snake's nest, cousin's nest, it's a good description. Okay, I still have something to do. When this matter is over, how about we go to Lizi for a drink?"

Jack smiled and expressed his agreement: "It has to be Lizzy, her Mewtwo is really one of a kind!"

Tang Yu murmured in his heart: Well, don't you look at who the Mewtwo experience expert is, the famous Judy Alvarez.

After receiving the information from Jack, Carter also came to the office to report on the inquiry. He found no prosthetic trading in the relevant information on the black market. The Sian Westan currently being traded were all low-end goods from gangs.

After collecting various prerequisite intelligence, Tang Yu set his sights on the scene where the cybermaniac was killed, and retrieved data from surveillance cameras around the company square. At the same time, he opened the internal intelligence database of the counter-intelligence department, and retrieved the NCPD center's on-duty, cleanup data. The basic information of personnel in transportation and other departments was collected and compared.

He wanted to see who from the NCPD had been at the scene and had the opportunity to steal the Sian Westan prosthetic body.

The character portraits and various information codes scrolled on the screen, and all the information of NCPD personnel who were present at the scene on the day of the incident were listed, and then continued to filter out the information of the personnel at the scene who had come into contact with the body of the cybermaniac.

There were fewer and fewer people who met the conditions until Tang Yu saw a familiar name.

[Name: Gloria Martinez]

[Position: Night City Public Medical Center Emergency Medical Technician]

"Is it a coincidence?"

Gloria was the mother and child he saved at the scene of the car accident attacked by the Animal Gang, and they are still being treated at the Trauma Team Medical Center.

Tang Yu checked the video of the scene and found that Gloria put the cart containing the body of the cyber madman into the ambulance, and then left the scene of the incident.

The personal details of David Martinez were retrieved again and it was learned that he had just damaged Arasaka Academy's online education system and needed to pay a large sum of money.

"Emergency medical personnel, in urgent need of money, have the opportunity to steal prosthetics alone."

Tang Yu is almost certain to get the military-grade Siamwestan.

"She must be right."

With the Gloria in his hands, there was no way that Sean Westan could slip from his grasp, and he could have the prosthetic body with just a phone call.

It's just that the cage he wants to make for Susan needs some bait to attract mice to get in, and this military-grade Sianwestein is the best bait. With what Abernathy has done, he will never give up anything. Opportunities to sanction counterintelligence agencies.

Tang Yu exited the desktop system and looked at the time. It was getting late, so he got up and left his desk to go downstairs.

Go through the office area, pass by the front desk, come to the elevator door, and confirm the elevator down button.

When the elevator door opened, Tang Yu walked in. The electronic screen inside was still chattering about the 'great' life of Saburo Arasaka.

Tang Yu got out of the elevator and came outside Arasaka Tower. The first thing he saw was two suspended large goldfish swimming in the company square.

At the same time, many people in suits and uniforms were busy coming and going on the roundabout of the square, and there were also many well-dressed urban men and women walking through it. Various office or private aircraft were seen in the sky from time to time among the buildings.

The rebuilt Company Plaza is already one of the most famous landmarks in the world, but the Arasaka Tower and the Military Science and Technology Building that really destroyed the Company Plaza sit opposite each other here, like two black giants that dominate the square.

Tang Yu looked up at the two 'giants' and remained silent. He paused for a moment and then strode towards the traffic stop.

In a suspended transportation rail car.

Tang Yu took off the portable communicator worn on his left eye and loosened the black tie around his neck. He had decided to go back to rest and did not want to be disturbed by other things. On the first night of his rebirth, he just wanted to enjoy the Night City. This rare and familiar night scene.

Standing in the car, holding the railing, looking out the window.

The steel forest is covered with shimmering light and stands in layers. The neon lights above the city extend to the sky. The winding river flows from Haikou through the city's steel bridge and merges into the underground waterway. The night is shrouded in rain and looks a bit hazy.

Listening to the music playing in the carriage, Tang Yu calmly looked out the window and murmured.

"Actually I should have left long ago"

“But in all fairness”

"In this bastard city"

"Have my life"
