Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

Chapter 49 Surprise

Mann was settling the fees for Qiwei, Pyrrha and Rebecca.

This routine action used to be done after the mission was over, when everyone gathered in the small square in front of the TURGO convenience store to toast and drink.

But today, Mann still had prosthetic body implantation matters behind him, and everyone was injured to varying degrees, so he decided to pay the fee first so that the members could see the injuries.

Seeing that Mann wanted to follow Tang Yu alone to do things, Rebecca seemed to be very worried about Tang Yu, and took the initiative to say: "Mann, that guy is unreliable in my opinion. It is too dangerous for you to go alone. I was not hurt. I’ll go with you so I can keep an eye on him!”

Mann refused with a confident smile: "No, even if Mr. Tang wants to do it, he won't do it at this time, because I am still useful to him. Don't worry, Rebecca."

After saying that, he also transferred 10,000 euros to Rebecca. Rebecca had contributed a lot in the battle just now.

Until the companions around him explained everything clearly, Mann finally looked at Lucy, who was smoking alone not far away.

"Lucy."

Lucy didn't raise her head when she heard Mann's call. Instead, she stood up and walked out of the factory: "I didn't help much this time, so forget the reward."

When passing by the floating car, Lucy deliberately slowed down. She glanced at the car from the corner of her eye and saw Tang Yu sitting on the luxurious leather seat of the floating car. He looked comfortable and seemed to be talking to his superiors.

But this time she had no intention of eavesdropping on the conversation. The cooperation mission had ended, which meant that her account with Tang Yu was completely settled.

The only thing that surprised her was that when Mann and the others were in danger, Tang Yu did not choose to sit back and watch, but personally led the Arasaka elite team to rescue them.

In fact, she was ready to fight at that time. If Tang Yu didn't agree to save Mann and the others, she might solve it in her own way.

Not just for the team, but more importantly to protect yourself.

Lips are dead and teeth are cold.

If Mann and the others really died at the hands of military technology, as a direct participant in this operation, it would be difficult for her to escape.

Although Tang Yu is a senior executive of Arasaka Company, he is just an ordinary person who has not been transformed. Face-to-face negotiations with military technology are extremely risky.

Military technology may not buy his credit, but he really did it.

Not only did they not use a knife or a shot, they forced away the military technology and saved Mann and others.

Lucy took one last look at Tang Yu, who was sitting in the car on the phone. She withdrew her gaze and continued walking outside the factory. After passing the floating car, she blew out a circle of smoke and murmured.

“Good news indeed”

at this time.

Tang Yu, who was sitting in the car and talking on the phone, was reporting to Arthur Jenkins about the situation at the scene.

Although he mentioned that someone from Military Technology was present, he deliberately omitted the part about their hands-on work and replaced what Military Technology did with what was done by the Whirlpool Gang.

Because the Arasaka Elite Team was present in person, the presence of military technology at the scene could not be concealed.

When Tang Yu arrived with the Arasaka elite team, the on-site signal had been blocked and the fierce battle was over.

As long as Military Technology does not admit that it has done anything, Arasaka has no conclusive evidence.

At the same time, Caitlin's death was attributed to the failure of the mission. She was driven crazy by the Whirlpool Gang, lost mental control, and was shot dead on the spot.

After all, she had already exploded into bloody foam, and there was no way to find out why.

In the end, it was concealed that the target prosthetic body was intercepted from Dum Dum, and the rest of the situation was reported based on the actual situation of the incident.

Jenkins on the other end of the phone was very satisfied after hearing this, and his tone was not as anxious as before, but rather excited.

"Don, you did a great job this time!"

"Your attendance bonus will not be less than a penny, I believe it will surprise you!"

"Our counterintelligence department won a great victory!"

"That stinky cousin Abernathy is probably crying and busy going to the superiors to explain and blame!"

"I know very well the virtues of a stinky cousin. When encountering problems and troubles, he will only pass the responsibility to others. I will never sacrifice even a feather!"

Tang Yu continued to add: "Although our department did not suffer any losses this time, it also proved one thing. There were indeed people in the department colluding privately with Abernathy. Carter Smith should have been cleared by the special agent she sent."

Jenkins agreed very much: "You are absolutely right. Carter Smith has been canceled from the company employee account just now. He was identified by the Arasaka Special Service Team as a cyberpsychotic out of control, and he was eliminated on the spot."

"If he is still alive, there is still a chance to accuse that stinky cousin of his crime!"

"I have to say, that stinky cousin's methods are really cruel!"

Tang Yu: "Yes, the Special Operations Department did make a big mistake, but without key witnesses, it is difficult to convict the dirty cousin of death."

Jenkins said in a very helpless tone: "It would be good if I could make her suffer a lot and take her claws back. The backer behind her has not yet fallen."

"And you know, the Arasaka board of directors is on the defensive in the face of military technology in Night City."

"Now that military technology is involved, there is a high probability that the board of directors will not delve into it."

"It's not that easy to really bring her down unless"

Tang Yu knew what Jenkins was referring to, but he didn't answer the conversation. He wasn't serious enough to arrange for someone to assassinate Susan Abernathy.

Not to mention Arasaka's private armed bodyguards beside Abernathy, it is difficult to find an opportunity to use just a bunch of life-saving means.

Susan Abernathy indeed deserves to die, but now is not the time for Tang Yu to take action.

Of course, if Jenkins found someone else to do this, he wouldn't stop him.

If it succeeds, Tang Yu will be happy to enjoy the results.

"Now that such a big thing has happened, I believe there will be a good show at the upper-level meeting tomorrow, at least at the board of directors level."

Jenkins nodded and said: "Yes, it will be difficult for the president to suppress this matter. It will definitely be discussed and dealt with by the board of directors."

"I really want to see Director Abernathy's excuse. The only flaw is that the prosthetic body was taken away by the Uzumaki Gang."

"If the prosthetic body is in my hands, Tanaka will probably be even more dissatisfied with the ugly cousin. I can only imagine how the directors would evaluate her."

"At least I'll say something to her that's more likely to lead to failure than success, hahaha!"

When Tang Yu heard Jenkins' slightly proud laugh, he could feel how aggrieved he was by Abernathy.

During his absence at Arasaka Tower, it seemed that Jenkins was scolded by Susan Abner.

As for that old woman's violent temper, she will definitely look at people through her nostrils once she gets the upper hand.

It was a rare pleasure to see his old boss, so Tang Yu decided to let his old boss Jenkins experience what an unexpected surprise was.

"Mr. Jenkins, it is true that the prosthetic body was stolen by the Whirlpool Gang and is not in our hands, but that does not mean that the operating data of the prosthetic body is not in our hands."

Jenkins: "???"
