Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

Chapter 72 The First Commission

Gloria was sitting in front of the electronic mirror screen, using an eyebrow razor to slightly modify her eyebrow lines.

In order to find a new job, she deliberately put on some light makeup today.

She had slept enough in the past few days, and the haggardness and fatigue in the corners of her eyes had dissipated a lot.

Gloria put down the eyebrow razor, patted her cheeks in the mirror, and then tried hard to smile.

She had been waiting at home for a few days, but she never got the news she wanted to wait for, so she felt it was better to find a job first.

I finally saved some money and paid it all to Arasaka Academy to make up for the losses caused by David.

In the future, there will be a lot of money to spend on rent, water, electricity, food, clothing, housing and transportation.

After leaving the public medical center, she did not have much buffer time left.

Gloria took off the yellow cyber jacket overalls from the hanger hook and found that the cuffs and collar were somewhat frayed and faded.

This work clothes are strong and wear-resistant. Without the logo of the previous work unit, it can be worn as daily work clothes.

She smoothed the folds of her coat and draped it neatly over her shoulders. Her two slender, jade-white hands slipped through the sleeves and shook, but it still fit loosely.

"It's a bit old, so it's convenient for work."

After changing her clothes, Gloria was about to go out when she suddenly received a message.

She turned her prosthetic eyes to read the letter.

Mr. Tang?

Gloria's breathing became slightly tight, click to view.

"Mr. Tang, are you coming to my place again?"

She didn't expect that Tang Yu, whom she hadn't contacted for a few days, would suddenly propose to meet today and choose to meet at her home.

The key is that the other party will be arriving in half an hour.

This caught Gloria obviously off guard, and she immediately retracted her foot that she had just stepped out of the door.

She turned around and found that the house had not been tidied up, and the tables, sofas, and floors were in a mess.

Personal clothes were just taken out of the dryer and scattered in his bedroom.

She panicked.

Gloria covered her head and thought for a while. It was important to reply to Tang Yu's message first.

"Got it, I'll be waiting at home"

The words were displayed, but she felt something was wrong and felt strange.

I quickly deleted it and only replied with two words.

"receive."

After replying the message, Gloria took the time to return to the house and start cleaning.

The last time Tang Yu came to his home as a guest, David didn't have time to prepare because he was sick.

Today David has gone to class at the college, and he has not finished school yet. He still made such a mess at home alone, which made outsiders laugh.

Gloria didn't want to leave a bad impression on Tang Yu.

Especially after Yu Jin agreed to do that, she felt more and more unbalanced facing Tang Yu.

Company executive, savior, and possibly even her future sponsor.

The status of the two parties was extremely unequal, so she, who had always been strong and independent, had to soften her temper.

Gloria's mind was in a mess, she stuffed all the clothes into the cabinet and closed the bedroom door.

The living room was cleared of trash and the couches and tables were hastily wiped clean.

Then he walked to the electronic mirror screen and looked at his face again to confirm that he was still normal.

Open the door and go downstairs to greet the upcoming distinguished guests.

Gloria stood under the skyscraper and looked at both ends of the road from time to time.

Several Arasaka Company cars passed in front of her, but they all passed by in a hurry and did not stop.

Suddenly, she spotted a familiar figure far away on the right side of the road, wearing a full black suit and walking steadily, which seemed incompatible with the street attire around Santo Domingo.

Street culture permeates the entire Santo Domingo, and there are rarely company employees in suits and ties walking on the streets.

When the figure gradually approached, Gloria confirmed that it was Tang Yu. The difference from last time was that he wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses, adding a bit of elegance.

Gloria took the initiative to wave her hand to indicate her location.

When Tang Yu saw the fiery red ponytail and the bright yellow jacket, he recognized Gloria waving to him.

The two soon met up.

Gloria was a little embarrassed and explained with a smile: "Mr. Tang, today is really unexpected, and there is nothing to entertain at home."

"If you don't mind, we can go out and talk somewhere else."

Tang Yu had been here alone once before, and he was familiar with the road and walked straight towards the skyscraper.

"No need to spend money, I came to you this time for business."

"At this point, David hasn't finished school yet."

Gloria nodded: "David will eat in the college cafeteria at noon and will not return until school is over in the afternoon."

"Okay, this matter is urgent, let's get down to business first."

The two returned to the apartment. Tang Yu looked at it a little, and it didn't change much from last time.

He walked to the sofa and sat down, turning his head to see Gloria taking out a wine glass from the cabinet.

"No more drinking, let's talk about business first."

After hearing this, Gloria hurriedly put the wine glass back, closed the cupboard door, and walked to the sofa opposite to sit down.

Tang Yu directly took out the micro separation chip and handed it over.

Gloria stood up slightly and took it with both hands, trying to be polite. Seeing the other person's normal expression, her mood calmed down a little.

"You check the contents of the chip first."

Gloria inserted the microchip into the biological nerve slot, and the prosthetic eye displayed relevant information.

[Name: Riley Hine]

[Identity: Valentino gang member]

[Content: Missed eight days ago and appeared in Watson District on the last night.]

Gloria quickly finished reading the chip, and her face couldn't help but become serious.

"Members of the Valentino Gang appeared in Watson District on the last night. If we can't contact them, they might have been maliciously hijacked. Could they be related to the Whirlpool Gang?"

Tang Yu explained: "Everything you said is possible. The commission is to find Riley Hein."

"The Valentino gang has been looking for him for several days. No matter whether they searched on the hacker network or sent people to search on the spot, they found no clues."

"It's not convenient for me to get involved in this matter. It's up to you to find a way to solve it."

With that said, Tang Yu transferred 30,000 euros from his electronic account to Gloria.

Gloria received the funding for the operation, but she didn't expect that the 'middleman' cooperation would begin like this.

Simple, clear and direct.

She quickly recovered from her surprise: "I understand, time limit requirement?"

"As soon as possible, whether life or death, there must be a result."

In fact, it is very simple for Tang Yu to mobilize the power of Arasaka Company to investigate this matter.

He entrusted it to Gloria mainly to give her a chance, a chance to show herself.

If she grasps it, she will be qualified to become a real 'middleman'.

In addition, any case record will be kept when the company's power is called upon.

This matter was requested by Jack privately, and Tang Yu didn't want to attract the attention of someone in the company.

Therefore, it was just right to entrust it to Gloria.

After receiving the mission and collecting the funds for the operation, Gloria solemnly promised that she would do her best to complete the mission.

Tang Yu knew that Gloria had certain connections, and through his identity as an emergency technician at a public medical center, he resold prosthetic bodies and met Mann and other cyberpunks.

But the real 'middleman' actually has a division of power. If Gloria wants to make a formal debut, she must obtain the approval of the Taoist Master.

Tang Yu had to support the scene that a middleman should have for her first appearance.
