Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

Luo Qi remembered Rogge's words and raised his vigilance, "Also, check someone for me. He is from Arasaka, and he is in charge of connecting with the Tiger Claw Gang. His name is Kenzo Fujii."

This is the last piece of useful information pried out of Yoshikawa Noguchi.

On weekdays, when he was doing black work for Arasaka, he would always contact this little boss.

"Business or personal use?" Rogge asked, "It's free for personal use, and you have to pay for business."

"Okay, money, money, money, I'll transfer it to you right away."

Luo Qi complained helplessly, "As soon as possible, I'm afraid he will run away when he hears the news, and we will both have to work for nothing."

"You are the one who is entrusted, not me, rookie." On the other end of the phone, Rogge's voice sounded very happy, as if he was very happy to see Luo Qi being so busy.

"But isn't this entrusted by you? Just throw it all to me? There is no pre-employment training?"

Although he has entered the state where the middleman is looking for connections and people to do things, Luo Qi still feels inexplicably as if he has been tricked by Rogge.

"I got my money long ago, and now the entrustment is entirely your business."

Rogge's nonchalant tone made Luo Qi stiff... Oh, I mean fist.

"Fuck you, goodbye."

Luo Qi rolled his eyes and strangled the phone.

Now he gradually understands Johnny's mood - this old hag's skill is really profound, she can fly in juggling, the vigor is not written on her face, it's all blurred between the lines, making people look like that Call a depressed.

But he also knew that if it wasn't for Rogge's guarantee and recommendation, it would be difficult for him to easily get such a level of entrustment. After all, he only has a reputation, and the brand has not yet been established.

……

Facing the sun slowly illuminating the dark corners of Night City, Luo Qi stretched comfortably and yawned along the way.

After working so hard for so many days, he was finally free.

Sitting cross-legged on the towering roof, let the sunshine of the new day shine on your face.

Luo Qi looked at the cargo drone flying across the sky in the distance, and the sci-fi city standing on the west coast like the Holy White Mountain, and wanted to say something, but he hesitated and closed his mouth in the end.

Mowell came silently from behind, thought for a moment, hugged his right arm, and brought his face to it.

The two of them silently welcomed the rising sun, and the daylight in the sky shed some warmth.

"Sometimes I think, why don't I leave Night City." Luo Qi gently leaned his head against her, feeling the tactile sensation of their hair rubbing against each other, "But if you think about it carefully, all of my It's all here... family, career, friends, I can't even imagine where I'm going after I leave Night City."

After accumulating during this period, Luo Qi had more than 80 cash in his account, of which 70 came from the military technology vote.

For most people struggling to survive at the bottom of society, this is already an astronomical figure.

But in Night City, it is still impossible to afford a decent house.

He's talking about normal apartments that are clean, tidy, safe, and comfortable, not trash-heap skyscrapers.

Prices in Night City are as outrageous as house prices.

It's like a severely divided social class, either expensive to the waist, or rotten to fuck.

A second-hand one-bedroom decent apartment in the Watson district sells for between 80 and 90 euros.

If you approach the North Industrial District (NID), the price will continue to drop with the distance, and finally drop to about 40 Euros in the factory area, but the price of living there is the deteriorating health every day.

Heywood is adjacent to the company square, and the price of a second-hand one-bedroom apartment is close to 100 million euros. If it is brand new, the price will increase by 20% to 30%.

Because there are a large number of companies and factories in the valley area, the house price does not drop much when going south. Only when you enter the Coronado Farm in Santo Domingo, not only the house price, but also the number of apartment buildings begins Dive sharply.

The most outrageous thing is of course the municipal center - the price of a second-hand one-bedroom apartment exceeds 150 million euros, and the price of a three-bedroom apartment starts at 400 million euros, with no ceiling.If it is a new house, this number can even be nearly doubled.

Luo Qi doesn't want to go back to the days of living in the garbage dump. The reality is far less beautiful than imagined in the game - the narrow tube building, the smelly garbage that causes health problems, the crime rate remains high, and an average of three people are seen a day. corpse.Neighbors lie surrounded by garbage, accompanied by flies and maggots, and then immerse themselves in inferior plastic Mewtwo headbands, enjoying a false life that does not belong to them.

The skyscraper slums that gather the poor together like trash cans are the true portrayal of this society.

And his wish was nothing more than a clean little nest of his own.

But in Night City, this is a complete luxury, a dream that ordinary people dare not dream of in their lifetime.

Standing in the shadow of soaring super skyscrapers, lost in the maze of streets, alleys and bazaars, forgetting your name, forgetting who you are, just remembering that you will die to make your dreams come true.

So Luo Qi likes to stand on a high place and look at the unobstructed sky.

Sunny or cloudy, drizzle and light wind, bright sun, dark clouds, it doesn't matter.

The melody of that piece of sky is always quietly changing with the color, telling him that this world has never changed for thousands of years.

"I thought I'd get used to the city sooner or later, but I was wrong."

Luo Qi looked at the Night City in the distance, which was gradually glowing with new colors under the sun, with a smile of interest on his face, and the golden light cheered in his eyes.

Wandering in the sea of ​​sewer mud, trying to find the pearl that has not yet been dusted, one day I suddenly discovered that this place is not an inherent garbage dump, but is treated as a cesspit by capital.

Interlocking fingers with the girl next to him, for some reason, a voice seemed to echo in his ears.

"Wake up, Samurai, let's burn this city to ashes!"

Chapter 62 Cyber ​​New Man

"Bringing you local news now."

"Recently, there have been many attacks on military technology convoys on Route 121 and Route 146. The spokesperson of Military Technology said that this is most likely a means by competitors to target them. They will use all their strength to ensure the safety of the convoy's transportation and use Absolute armed sabotage of criminals' conspiracy..."

Luo Qi and Mowell sat side by side in front of the bar of the Afterlife Nightclub, boredly watching the news anchor on TV read the script to the camera with a "blah blah blah".

There was a glass of orange juice in front of him, which made Claire very unhappy—not because there were two straws stuck in the glass, but because the juice she used to make the "screwdriver" was almost finished by Luo Qi and the two.

"There is no next drink."

Seeing that the cup was about to bottom out again, Claire emphasized while mixing drinks for other guests.

"In this damn weather, some iced orange juice is the most comfortable."

Rocky sucked the last bit of the bottom of the glass before Mowell, leaving only the remaining orange ice cubes, glistening in the glass.

Then he was poked silently in the waist by Mowell.

"I'm done talking, come here."

The voice that had been waiting for a long time finally came out of the earphones.

It was Roger, and he couldn't tell whether he was in a good mood or a bad mood.

An old man came out of Rogge's booth and exchanged glances with Luo Qi.

Just like the old men you see every day, there is nothing fancy, although old men are a rare species in Night City-most young people lose their hair or run away before they live to that age.

He couldn't feel anything abrupt from the vicissitudes of life in his eyes.

But the subconscious in my heart is reminding myself that there are some abnormalities that I haven't noticed.

An old dark suit, washed a little faded, wearing it on him, neither looked bloated nor thin.The whitish texture reminds people of the ancient style of the 70s and [-]s.

Of course, if V and Jack are here, it is estimated that the society at the beginning of the 21st century comes to mind, because that era is called nostalgia for them.

The old fellow had a mass of undisguised white hair mixed with bits and pieces of black lost like a lost child.

He was hunched over, and his walking gait was a bit sloppy, but unexpectedly fast, his body was stable, and he was not as frail as he appeared on the outside.

Watching his back disappear into the gate of the afterlife, Luo Qi looked at Mowell's eyes, and read a tacit understanding called "You also think something is wrong with this guy" from it.

"Hey, brother."

Luo Qi greeted the big black "Pangolin", who nodded at them and stepped aside from the only way that Rogge's exclusive booth must pass.

On the Jackson Plains, the battle with Adekado allowed them to establish initial trust and friendship.

"Who was that old man just now?"

Luo Qi sat down on the sofa, looked at Roger who was drinking silently with a cup, and asked.

"Business contacts, you will get to know each other sooner or later."

Roger didn't elaborate, but thought about what was in his head.

Will we meet sooner or later?

interesting.

When Luo Qi heard what she said, an interested smile appeared on his face: "Okay, then let's talk about business."

"About Rockman Technology, there is good news."

Rogge pulled out a flashing red chip from the slot on the back of his neck and handed it to Luo Qi.

"You don't want to play the 'one good news, one bad news' set?" Luo Qi asked with a smile, and took it over, "It's been a long-standing routine, don't be fooled."

The data in the chip starts to be read.

On the screen of the PDA, open the files in the chip, there are only a few isolated ones.

"I'm not making a fool of myself, and besides, I learned this from you—how about keeping it a little secret?"

Rogge seemed to be in a good mood, and he had a leisurely time to make a harmless little joke with Luo Qi.

"The good news is that 'Rockman Technology' does exist." Rogge changed his sitting position, "My intelligence team found relevant words in the encrypted library of military technology."

The existence of this word is very simple, so simple that even Luo Qi is a little shocked.

It only appears in the title of a document, and this document is not even a formal report, it is just an incomplete communication.

"What about the rest? Gone? Just such an endless search result?"

Rocky didn't even know what to say.

This clue is not at all as clear and organized as Rogge's other intelligence.

"They are people first, and cyber hackers second. They are not omnipotent." Rogge shook his head and said slowly, "This is a high-level secret of military technology, and the encryption level is very high. Leaks that can be found."

"Okay." Accepting Rogge's statement, Luo Qi said helplessly, "At least we can be sure that it is indeed related to military technology."

He continued to flip through the remaining documents: "Then what are these?"

"look by youself."

Rogge gestured with his palm and signaled.

It was a detailed military technology cargo list, but it was not a complete version, but an integrated fragment that had been cut and edited and highlighted the core clues.

The document shows that since two months ago, several new confidential items and unknown items have been added to the military technology transport fleet.

This is nothing to be surprised about, maybe it's just a protocol change or planning change that people hate.

However, according to the continuous tracking of the goods, they found that there was a batch of overseas goods from the south in the list of military technology convoys, and they were highly confidential.And the time when one of them arrived in Night City was exactly the same as the convoy that Luo Qi hijacked that day.

The answer is obvious.

"Huh..." Luo Qi breathed out slowly, and continued to ask, "The thing is indeed with me, but what is it from? Who made it?"

"This has to be checked from the transportation station of military technology. My people can't find the corresponding clues. It may be that we used a transfer method that we don't know. It is also possible that there is no document delivery for such confidential things. Information."

Roger said lightly.

The investigation work stopped here, just like a short short film that just made people excited came to an abrupt end, abruptly ended.

Far from the secrets of Night City, even Rogge couldn't easily find out.

There are not many transportation stations, or logistics centers, for military technology in North America.

The transport convoy started from a transport distribution center located in the old territory of Mexico, which is now the backyard of the company, and sent the goods marked as [unknown] to Night City.

Luo Qi had an impression of that place.

It was reported in the news that because of material mining, military technology has built a batch of new factories in the local area, using the latest and most mysterious equipment and technology.

It now appears that the woven leather armor in those three large boxes most likely came from a local military factory and was sent to Night City for secondary processing as strictly protected military-grade raw materials.

But not enough to be marked as highly confidential cargo.

This so-called "Rockman Technology" is the source of everything.

"Good guy, the more you search, the further you go." Luo Qi shook his head helplessly and sighed.

He, who has never left Night City so far, is worried about the difficulty represented by this distance.

"Can you tell me now, the relationship between this thing and relic?"

Roger may be the one who is more confused.

But over the years, she had seen even stranger things, and Johnny was right about that.
