Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

After a meal.

Tang Yu and David set off from the valley area and took the suspended rail transit home.

In the carriage, David was very surprised as to why Tang Yu, as a company executive, always chose to take the subway, but was too embarrassed to ask.

David's eyes seemed a little dull, and his mind was thinking about what happened today.

It all happened so fast that he didn't have time to digest it.

In the morning, I was ridiculed by Tanaka Katsuo, and I was worried about what to do with the internship tomorrow. After having a meal with Tang Yu at noon, all the problems were solved easily, as if they had never existed at all.

In fact.

David is young and shy, but he is not stupid.

When Tang Yu took the initiative to invite him to dinner and offered to let him stay as an intern at Arasaka Company, David had already vaguely guessed something.

Is there really any unreasonable favor in the world?

Maybe providing an internship position is nothing to Tang Yu, not even a piece of cake.

But many parents lined up to join him and get such a spot for their children.

When the meeting ended, a large number of Arasaka College leaders surrounded Tang Yu.

You can feel that Tang Yu has a good status in Arasaka Company and is definitely a heavyweight.

David glanced sideways at Tang Yu beside him and found that he was staring intently, as if he was admiring the scenery outside the window.

I thought that if it hadn't been for that car accident, I wouldn't have known Tang Yu.

Perhaps many things have changed a lot from the moment I met Tang Yu.

David's excitement had passed, but thinking about the future, his mood inevitably became heavy again, and he said to himself.

"My mother must have found Mr. Tang."

"Otherwise, it's really unreasonable why Mr. Tang would suddenly look for me."

"I really don't know how my mother can repay this kindness."

"Fortunately, Mr. Tang didn't make things difficult for us, otherwise we would have been laughed at."

David once again recalled the image of Tanaka Katsuo looking for fun with him, with that arrogant and arrogant look that despised everything, which made him feel infinitely disgusted.

Tang Yu heard David beside him seem to be thinking casually, but not quite clearly, so he asked.

"What, are you worried?"

David was stunned for a moment and quickly explained.

"No no"

With that said, the train has arrived in the Santo Domingo Valley area.

David quickly said goodbye to Tang Yu and hurried out of the subway to avoid more embarrassment.

David walked out of the platform, gathered his mood, and decided to run back and share the good news with his mother.

He felt that he had changed a lot, especially after experiencing that real dream, he gradually realized that his mother was always the one who truly cared about him.

Since his mother wanted to see him join Arasaka Company, even if it was difficult to do, it might not be what he really wanted, but David didn't want Gloria to see anything but disappointment in her eyes again.

David ran all the way home. As soon as he opened the door and entered the house, he found that the house was clean and the clothes had been dried and aired, but there was no one there.

"It seems that mom is going out to find a job."

David took off his shoes and walked into the house. When he had nothing to do, he took out the Mewtwo ring from the bedroom. He also held two Mewtwo chips in his hand, which were new products obtained from the prosthetic doctor.

He had prepared these Mewtwo chips early and planned to try them out when he was alone at home. Experiencing Mewtwo became one of his few hobbies.

David looked at the Mewtwo Ring, but thinking that he would go to Arasaka Company for an internship tomorrow, he put the things back.

Run to the mirror again and start practicing to prepare.

"Hello, I am David Martinez. I was invited by Mr. Tang to report to your department."

"No, no, it's too stupid. Try it again."

"Hello."

at the same time.

After saying goodbye to David, Tang Yu continued to take the subway home.

He didn't plan to go to work in the afternoon, and he had to wait until there was no news from Gloria.

As for David's internship in the Counterintelligence Department, he can just report directly to the front desk. He has been assigned an experienced employee who is familiar with the work.

Several days have passed since the day when little Michiko was assigned to run an errand.

Tang Yu was not in a hurry. He still had his old habit. He would not take action easily before he had a thorough understanding of the situation.

Military technology is not a good thing, and you have to wait for the other party to show some flaws.

As for Susan Abernathy, she has been suspended for three months and has calmed down a lot. Last night, the scavenger took revenge. No trace related to the company was found. It was most likely that it was the scavenger's revenge.

Back then, Tang Yu, V Zi and Jack, the three of them raided the scavenger's lair and rescued a woman named Sandra Dorsett.

Afterwards, he was overtaken by a van scavenger and insisted on fighting to the death.

Later, another V son was tricked into watching Mewtwo on the roadside, which made the scavengers so excited that they formed a deep rift with them.

His hands were stained with blood, and his reputation gradually grew.

There were no scavengers who were hanging around in the Watson area at that time who didn't know about Tang Yu and V Zi.

Not long after.

Tang Yu returned to Little Chinatown in Watson District and walked into his high-end apartment.

After checking that it was still early, he decided to have some afternoon tea.

Just as Tang Yu prepared tea and snacks and sat comfortably on the balcony enjoying afternoon tea, he suddenly received a communication request from Gloria.

Answer the call.

Gloria went straight to the point: "Mr. Tang, Mann and the others have completed the commission and successfully found Riley Hein. He was indeed kidnapped by the Whirlpool Gang."

Tang Yu never doubted that Mann's team was capable of completing this commission, but by moving so fast, it seemed that there were indeed some means.

"I understand. How about the Lelyhain people? Have you sent Valentino back?"

Gloria: "Not yet. He has been sent to the public medical center for emergency treatment. When we rescued him, his condition was quite serious."

Tang Yu had already expected this. Few people who were inexplicably abducted and disappeared in Night City could come back alive safely.

Some were captured for some unknown secret experiments, some were knocked unconscious and placed on the operating table like dead pigs, and some were kidnapped into a dark room to record the horrific Black Super Dream.

Anyway.

Disappearing for no reason in Night City is definitely not good news.

Riley Hein was lucky, at least he saved his life.

Gloria continued: "Mr. Tang, are you free tonight?"

As if she thought it was impolite to ask, Gloria quickly explained: "There are some details of this commission that need to be reported to you in person. This matter is related to military technology. In addition, I want to thank you personally for David's internship." .”

Tang Yu thought for a while and seemed to have no appointment that night. He replied, "Okay, I'll find a place and I'll send you the address later."

Gloria: "Okay!"

After hanging up the communication.

Tang Yu called Jack again and told him that the Valentino Gang matter had been resolved.

Jack was very happy: "Brother, tell me how much you spent this time, and I will transfer it to you. I can't let you spend money again."

Tang Yu joked: "Jack, you look down on people. Do I lack your money? But if you prepare, you may be able to live tonight."

As soon as Jack heard about the job, he immediately became excited.

"Hey, you should have told me earlier. I've been holding it in at home for several days. Tell me, what big action is going on tonight? Don't just sit and watch the show like last time."

Tang Yu smiled: "Isn't it better to just sit and watch the show? I might go to the Whirlpool Gang tonight."

Jack: "Going to the territory of those cyber lunatics of the Whirlpool Gang again. They are endless, right? Wasn't the lesson learned last time harsh enough? It just so happens that Riley Hein's account is being settled with them."

Tang Yu said in a deep voice: "Well, when it comes to military technology, I have to go to them to get some useful intelligence information."

Jack readily agreed: "No problem, brother, I will make arrangements for you tonight, just contact me."

Tang Yu didn't go into details: "Okay, you drive, we will meet and discuss the specific situation in detail."

End communication.

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.

Wallerson Street, Santo Domingo Valley District.

At the entrance gate of the manufacturing plant, there are several hot food huts, with light blue lights illuminating all directions, blocking out the darkness, and making it seem like a small world of fireworks.

People dressed in cowboy style come in and out of the factory gate and buy some hot food when passing by, but the traffic is not large.

In one of the Chinese hot food restaurants, Tang Yu was sitting in front of the stall, ordering some food at will, chatting with the boss about everything.

The reason why Tang Yu chose this place was not only because it was convenient for Gloria to come here, but also because the stall owner had some interactions with him.

Back then, he and V Zi got drunk with Benbenhou under the strong recommendation of this boss.

Monkey is a high-fructose corn syrup that is sweet and tangy from corn.

In fact, Tang Yu doesn't like this kind of highly sweet drink. The main reason is that crazy girl V likes to drink it, so he fell into the trap.

At first, I bought a large box of Stupid Monkey and placed it at V's house, hoping that she would drink until she vomited. Unexpectedly, the more she drank, the more addicted she became.

Daryl, the stall owner, was boiling a pot of hot water to make some pasta. The steaming water vapor billowed out, adding a hint of fireworks.

Tang Yu has already sent the address to Gloria in advance, so he is waiting for her to come here.

Not long after.

Tang Yu heard a familiar voice coming from beside him.

"Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, I'm a little late."

Gloria looked slightly apologetic and put on the yellow cyber jacket, which was the uniform of the public health center.

Tang Yu didn't say anything more and asked her to sit down first.

Gloria understood Tang Yu's purpose of choosing to meet here, he just didn't want her to spend money.

If she goes to Yujin's high-end restaurants again, even if she pays, it will still be Tang Yu's pocket that ends up spending the money.

This made her really embarrassed. Every time she calculated the expenses, she still had to blame them on Tang Yu.

The stall owner took the initiative and asked, "What do you want?"

Gloria asked: "Do you have a rainbow manticore here?"

Rainbow Manticore is a low-priced best-selling drink in Night City. Almost all the low-level workers will have a can of it when they have nothing to do to refresh themselves.

Daryl, the stall owner, said with disgust on his face: "Why are you drinking this sour soup? I heard that some batches of goods are still glowing at night!"

Then the conversation changed and he recommended with a smile: "We have a stupid monkey, the taste is much stronger!"

Tang Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw the stall owner's vigorous promotion. I'm afraid this guy is not the general agent of the stupid monkey dealer, and he still does this.

Gloria was stunned for a moment, but Tang Yu next to her said directly.

"Boss, let's get two cans of Stupid Monkey."

Seeing the success of the sales, the boss Daryl smiled broadly. He took out two bottles of Stupid Monkey from under the counter and placed them on the stall.

It's a green can with a monkey's head printed on the shell.

Gloria tried to pick up a can and opened the cap. The sweet smell of corn rushed straight to the door, almost making her faint.

She stuffed her nose and took a sip. The taste wasn't too bad, but it was too strong. She couldn't help but cough twice.

Tang Yu also opened the can and took a sip.

In fact, Tang Yu likes to eat corn, but hates corn-flavored drinks. It's a strange thing that can't be explained, but after drinking too much, it feels like that.

Tang Yu put down the stupid monkey and asked Gloria beside him.

"how is the taste?"

Gloria took out a piece of paper and wiped the corners of her mouth.

"It's okay, but the corn flavor is too strong."

Tang Yu smiled: "To be honest, I don't like the smell of corn, but fortunately I won't get upset after drinking it."

Gloria nodded, agreeing with what Tang Yu said, and said with an apologetic tone.

"Mr. Tang, thank you very much for the internship at David's company."

While speaking, Gloria did not dare to look directly at Tang Yu, and a trace of blush appeared on her cheeks.

He troubled others over and over again, even if he did things for Tang Yu, but after all, the reward was not worth the favor.

Tang Yu didn't mind: "It's all trivial matters. Besides, David performed quite well in various subjects in the college. It would be good to stay in the company as an intern."

Gloria would definitely not take such kind words seriously. Performing well at Arasaka Academy and staying as an intern at Arasaka Company are almost two different things.

Moreover, in order not to embarrass David, she specifically asked Tang Yu not to tell David the truth behind it.

David still didn't know the cost of repaying the college's compensation and staying as an intern at Arasaka Company.

Gloria was indeed in a desperate situation. She couldn't think of any way except to find Tang Yu.

The stall owner saw that Tang Yu was wearing a suit and uniform and spoke and behaved like a company employee. He interrupted while busy.

"Sir, Miss, judging from your clothes, you should all work in a company. It just so happens that my sister just applied for a job in a company this year and finally found a good way out."

"She was still helping me here a while ago, but now she has gone to work in the company."

As the stall owner Daryl spoke, a smile spread across his face unconsciously. He should be feeling happy and proud that his sister had joined the company.

Gloria seemed to be touched and asked: "Boss, which company does your sister work for?"

Stall owner Daryl: "Zeta Technology."

Gloria was a little surprised. Zeta Technology is also one of the largest companies in Night City. Being able to join such a large company is indeed a leap of faith for someone who is a hawker.

Tang Yu knew about this. The sister of the stall owner Daryl also grew up on this street.

Several street gangsters who knew each other in the past all hated the company.

Later, his sister joined Zeta Technology and became a company employee.

The gangsters thought that his sister had betrayed him, so they came to make trouble for Daryl, the vendor, all day long.

At that time, Vzi came forward to help him and dealt with a few street gangsters.

But now it seems that the stall owner Daryl is still immersed in joy and trouble has not come to his door.

Gloria, who was still a little reserved at first, gradually returned to normal after being interrupted by the stall owner, and realized that it was time to get to the point.

"Mr. Tang, there are some new discoveries about Riley Hein."

Tang Yu nodded and motioned for her to continue speaking.

She organized her thoughts and began to elaborate on the news and intelligence she had obtained.

"Riley Hein, a member of the Valentino Gang, was indeed kidnapped by the Maelstrom Gang a while ago."

"He was detained by people from the Whirlpool Gang in the central coastal street of the north industrial area of ​​Watson City. There is a secret experimental base of the Whirlpool Gang there."

"Mann found the place and exchanged gunfire with the Maelstrom Gang. When he finally rescued Riley Hein, he was almost delirious and inhumane."

"Because his whole body is covered with various strange new prosthetics, like the arms of an excavator, the back half of his head has also been dug out, replaced with a metal electronic panel, and a cyberspace deep dive interface has been implanted. I haven’t had time to sew it on yet”

"Two eyes were also gouged out, and mechanical cylindrical prosthetic eyes were implanted. All the replaceable parts of the body were replaced. It looked bloody and bloody. To put it mildly, it was really no different from a cyberzombie."

Tang Yu frowned slightly. The Whirlpool Gang had always had the habit of crazily implanting prosthetic bodies. Not only the gang members, but also everyone caught by them would suffer cruel prosthetic body implantation.

Flesh and flesh are bitter and weak, and machines soar.

Tang Yu pointed out the key: "You said before that this matter might be related to military technology. Did you mean that Riley Hein had an experimental implant of military technology?"

Gloria nodded, her expression becoming solemn.

"After inspection and investigation, Riley Hein not only had experimental prosthetics of military technology, but also took unknown hormone drugs. There were even signs of being invaded by data streams in the deep dive interface of the cyber network on the back of his head."

"Mann said that what happened after the search has nothing to do with them. He can only remind that Military Technology is not the only company involved in the Whirlpool Gang."

Tang Yu was silent.

I didn't expect that a kidnapping case would involve so many secrets.

Judging from the information he currently has, it can be confirmed that at least two companies, military technology and biotechnology, are involved. As for the brain nerve invasion, it cannot be ruled out that it is Ye's company.

As for the Uzumaki Gang doing these jobs to make money, this is nothing new.

No matter what, I have to talk to Brick, the boss of the Whirlpool Gang, tonight and dig out some useful information from him.

Tang Yu drank the rest of the Benbenhou in one gulp, and the sweet corn flavor filled his nose, which really hit his head.

"Tonight, we have to go somewhere and listen to heavy metal music."

Gloria was a little confused, looked up at Tang Yu and asked.

"listen to music?"

Tang Yu nodded and said: "Dance of Death Club, you may not believe it, they also have a 'Tinnitus' band, and different people perform on stage every time."

"That old boy Brick has been dreaming about heavy metal music all day long, dreaming about making a name for himself in the Night City music industry."

After speaking, Tang Yu dialed Jack's communication.

Today's rewards, instant noodles are really confused, all kinds of alliance leaders, sect leaders, heads, and helmsmen.

Thanks again to the leader of ‘All Solutions’ for the reward!

Even if I don't sleep tonight, I still have to write another big chapter!

Later, try to release it before twelve o'clock!

No more nonsense, let’s continue coding!
