Cyberpunk: Legends of Life

Chapter 9 The former traitor

Tang Yu was in the bathroom to relieve his inner distress. He accidentally received a call from Jack, and he calmed down and answered the phone.

Jack: "Hey Don, how's it going at the border, mission accomplished?"

After hearing the greeting from his old friend Jack, Tang Yu's depression was released a lot, and he even made a lame joke.

"It's not that good. I was suddenly called back by my superiors, and the border mission was temporarily terminated. You may not believe me, but I was stolen by a cousin, heh."

Jack: "Huh?! Have you returned to Night City, but what's the matter with the temporary termination of the mission? You almost put your life on it!"

Tang Yu's tone revealed sarcasm: "Who says it's not, the company is a nest of FMD cousins, and today they are still negotiating with you about the price, and tomorrow they can sell you to the scavenger Ga Yaozi, and maybe they will still feel sick when your kidney is transplanted." A touch of kindness, look, this kidney has worked with me before, we are really destined."

Jack helplessly comforted: "You will die in this job, but what happened?"

Tang Yu noticed that someone else came in the bathroom. After washing his hands, he fiddled with his hair in front of the mirror and did not leave, so he dismissed him unceremoniously.

Then talk to Jack.

"I need to find something, and I just asked you for some information."

Jack: "What are you looking for?"

Tang Yu said in a deep voice: "Do you know about the attack by cyber lunatics in the company square last night?"

Jack: "Of course I know. The news about Night City has exploded. What you're looking for won't be related to cyber madmen, right?"

Tang Yu: "You guessed it right, I need to find the operating system implant installed by the cyber lunatic, Sian Weistein."

Jack: "This is a valuable guy. After the cyber lunatic was killed by the violent mobile team, shouldn't the body be cleaned up by the NCPD?"

Tang Yu: "It is true that they are responsible for the cleanup, but now the Sian Weistan has been stolen."

Jack: "That's not easy"

Tang Yu: "So I need you to help me ask my acquaintances in NCPD who were in charge of clearing and transporting cyber lunatics at that time. I suspect that the corpses were tampered with before they were transported to the NCPD center."

Jack: "Acquaintances? I often go in the bureau, but the few acquaintances I knew before have already been released."

Tang Yu reminded: "It's not the acquaintance who asked you to get into the bureau, Stings, do you remember? Heywood was born as a veteran like you."

After Tang Yu fired Arasaka Squid in his previous life, he asked Jack to steal a car from the Ember Nightclub in Heywood Valley, and accidentally met street gangster V who also came to steal the car.

In the end, the three were caught by the NCPD. At that time, the driver who lived a good life wanted to break the legs of the three of them and throw them into the sea to feed the sharks. As a result, NCPD Superintendent Stings let them go.

Stings has a friendship with Mrs. Wells, and is also familiar with Jack, who often gets into trouble. More importantly, Stings supervises the company square and the valley area.

Stings definitely had the most detailed intelligence on hand last night when the cyber maniacs attacked the NCPD in the company plaza.

After being reminded, Jack quickly remembered who he was talking about.

"It turns out that the acquaintance you mentioned was him, but I didn't get along very well with him. When I got into the situation, Stings taught me a lot, but you have said so, brother. I will ask later. The big deal is please He had a couple of drinks at the Coyote."

Tang Yu said with a helpless smile: "His care will be indispensable in the future, and we will make money by giving him a VIP card every day for free."

Jack: "Ha, you really know how to joke, so let's do this first, and we'll contact you when there's news."

hang up the phone.

Tang Yu turned and left the bathroom and walked to his deputy minister's office.

After identity verification and through the electronic gate, he came to the office and sat down.

Tang Yu glanced at the layout of the office.

There are basic configurations such as reception sofa, tea cabinet and file cabinet, and a main display screen with two secondary display screens is placed on the desk.

The office area is small, but having an independent office in Arasaka Tower means that it is no longer a low-level company dog, but a middle-level and high-level company dog.

Tang Yu carefully checked the arrangement of some small items such as magazines and laser pointers, which were exactly the same as the arrangement before he went out, and there was no sign of being passive.

Then he called Carter, his immediate subordinate.

soon.

A middle-aged man with a simple and honest face walked in, his appearance was respectful and even showed timidity and flattery.

Tang Yu's temper in the counterintelligence department has always been bad, not only because he looked down on the company dog, but also because he knew that the guy in front of him was the bastard who would betray him in the future.

The left-eye communicator directly scans and reads Carter's basic information.

【Employee Name: Carter Smith】

【Employee Number: IW3918】

【Employee rank: G4】

[Department position: Deputy Head of the Counterintelligence Department]

[Personal background: single, supporting mother Mary Smith alone]

Tang Yu looked at Carter quietly, tapped his index finger on the table slowly, and found that the other's expression became more and more weird and nervous.

Tang Yu pondered and judged whether the other party had secretly turned to Susan Abernathy now. After all, the position of director of special operations was really convincing, especially for this soft-boned company dog.

If Carter has taken refuge in secret, then he has to take advantage of this 'Jiang Gan' to pit 'Cao Cao'.

Tang Yu asked casually: "Report on your recent work situation."

As a superior, he has plenty of ways to deal with Carter.

Carter was tense all of a sudden, and wanted to respond, but he couldn't speak at all, and finally he was deflated, just like a balloon that had just inflated and collapsed in an instant.

Tang Yu looked at him bowing his head and frowning, and asked playfully: "I heard that you have some private contacts with people from the Special Operations Department recently. What's the matter? Do you want to change jobs?"

Asking casually, Carter was even more frightened to apologize and explain.

"No, no, I have some old acquaintances in the Special Operations Department, but it's just personal contacts that don't involve work."

Tang Yu thinks that Carter's guilty expression is a sign of rebellion. Working in the counterintelligence department, everyone knows the horror of intelligence. Once the conspiracy information is leaked, it will be a catastrophe.

Tang Yu threw him a chip and reminded him intentionally or unintentionally: "There is no airtight wall in the world, you can immediately check the situation in the black market for me, whether there is any content in the chip being traded, and give me the result within half an hour .”

Carter quickly picked up the chip and wiped it clean, then nodded in agreement.

Tang Yu waved him to get out of the office, then turned on the computer, and began to obtain information about the cyber lunatic yesterday.

He didn't intend to let Carter find out anything, but just to test the extent of Carter and Abernathy hooking up, and by the way, he made a cage for Susan Abernathy's stinky trickster to get into.

"Who is a friend and who is an enemy, I am very clear"
