Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

Joanne didn't understand this development a bit.

In the last second, she thought that her life, her career, and her achievements were all about to be over.

But in the next second, Luo Qi told her that she was not only fine, but also beneficial.

What does it mean?

"I don't have a choice, do I?"

Joanne showed a somewhat powerless expression, slumped on the chair, looking at Luo Qi with a sad look in her eyes.

Luo Qi was very happy, because he had also seen this kind of look in Meredith.

"It's actually not complicated. I need some small inventions of biotechnology. Anything is fine. Correspondingly, I will also trade some military technology gadgets with you."

Seeing that she gave in, Luo Qi began to slowly explain his purpose.

"..."

Joanne didn't understand it at first, but soon understood the intention.

This is obviously going back and forth between the two companies.

"From now on, you are a nail I planted in biotechnology, but I will neither let you explode, nor let you do very dangerous things."

Luo Qi walked to her side, leaned down from behind, and whispered in her ear with a devilish tone.

"All you have to do is obey me, and then enjoy your rise to the top."

"...!"

It has to be said that at this moment, Joanne's heart was greatly shaken.

As the technical and regional development director of biotechnology, she is also an excellent genetics or genetic engineer, and is an extremely valuable senior talent in biotechnology.

What do you fear most in this line of work?

No results.

This is almost a situation more vicious than the devil's curse.

Why was she so persistent in the development of the Nightingale implant?

Because once this prosthetic body is successfully launched on the market, her position will be unshakable for a long period of time. This is the benefit that an extremely excellent achievement can bring to a person like her.

The technology that Hamilton brought greatly facilitated her personal progress in the development of Nightingale.

joke.

If you don't hide something from the company, do you really think that her name is for nothing?

As long as she knows the technology of military technology, it is better for people with other biotechnology to know nothing about it.

In other words, this kind of "keep one hand" operation is the norm among major companies.

This is also one of the fundamental reasons why she has a great affection for Hamilton.

And now, Luo Qi was standing behind her, using a seductive and depraved tone, tempting her to start a little subtle deal with military technology.

Both sides can earn money, get promoted and get rich together.

It's hard not to be heartbroken.

But in contrast, the price is that she will never escape from Luo Qi's clutches from now on.

"...Okay, anyway, I can't refuse."

Joanne gritted her teeth, and it was a fight.

Regardless of whether she deserves to cooperate or not, Luo Qi's handle is enough to kill her.

Since you can't resist, why not enjoy it.

Man is such a wonderful creature. Once the boundary is broken through, the thoughts will be instantly accessible.

Joanne is having fun now.

There is a thrill that betrays biotechnology.

Colleagues are pressing every step of the way, the high-pressure environment inside the company, and the lack of security caused by the endless emergence of insiders, as well as the cruel market and competition...

She has had enough.

"But I have to remind you, in Night City, don't trust people casually."

Luo Qi saw that she had started to tremble slightly, apparently undergoing a subversive struggle with all her past life in her brain, so she changed her tone to a slightly gentler one.

"Does that include you too?"

Joanne raised her head and looked at Luo Qi with a brand-new look. There was a bit of sternness after being ruthless, a little bit of compromise and helplessness, and some nervousness and expectation, as well as a subtle lack of confidence.

"Believe it or not, but I can say this—"

"Before today, I just used you, and after today, I used you clearly, it's as simple as that."

Luo Qi doesn't like to talk haha, so say whatever you want.

"……yes."

Joanne's mood was suddenly a little lost.

What the hell is he expecting?

She touched her earlobe, which seemed to still have residual warmth from Luo Qi's whispering.

"Okay, now that the business is over, let's talk about something pleasant."

Luo Qi also doesn't like to pretend to be deep all the time.

He walked to the edge of the fence and looked at Night City from an unfamiliar angle.

Although this is not the first time he has come here, he still likes to look at Night City from here every time.

The ground was too noisy, but above the cloud tops, it was just quiet, no more, no less.

"Did the inner ghost catch it?"

This is a continuation of the topic from the last time I met her.

That was the second time she was assassinated, and Luo Qi saved her.

"A few were caught, but most of them took the opportunity to eliminate dissidents. I actually found a few."

Joanne was a little dazed.

This is a topic between "Hamilton" and "Joanne", but now, I don't even know what his name should be.

Thus, she elaborated on the content of the Nightingale Project bit by bit.

"Several people I worked with, but you know, the experiment on Badlands went wrong, and a lot of people died in that homeless family."

Now that Joanne mentions this issue, she has a big headache, "The company decided to let Diana Cuno and Emilia Morton take the blame, and then something happened."

"Well, keep talking."

Luo Qi nodded, listening to her talk about the fucking things in the company.

"Diana's liquidation action was signed by me. Emilia, I didn't want to kill her, but the superiors have detained all the documents on her head and kicked her out of the company."

Joanne now has one head bigger than two. "She thought I did it, and then threatened me that she would bring the matter to News 54."

"interesting."

Rocky gave a playful smile.

The struggle within the company is really a life-and-death struggle.

The colleagues who worked together a few days ago parted ways in the next few days, and their life and death were unknown.

"Don't you have any responsibility?"

Luo Qi looked at her face and asked back with a smile.

"Alright alright."

Joanne took a deep breath and said dejectedly, "There are some problems, I shouldn't be so anxious to release the technology, but they are the ones who implement it, the one who urges it is the one who urges it, and it is not me who kills people. Such accidents are inevitable in experiments..."

She felt that she was a little wronged, but after careful calculation, she was not completely innocent.

But she is the overall person in charge of this project. Although the biotechnology has distributed the blame to the people below, but she is still alive, so she will naturally become the target of revenge for other survivors of the hapless homeless family.

This is the commission V received at the beginning.

"I thought she was just threatening to play, and she would usually just send the money away. Who knew that she really planned to poke it out, and then became a second-level threat to the company."

Joanne expressed some understanding of her irrationality, but she was still quite annoyed.

"Although the house and property are gone, she is still alive anyway, and she can still get the hush money."

Compared with another guy who was designated by the superior to take the blame, this Emilia is considered lucky.

It is really not easy to leave the company alive and get out with a sum of money in hand.

"Then?"

Luo Qi is not interested in participating in the farce within the company, but it is not bad to listen to as a story.

"Then I asked the soldiers to do her, but it was probably at that time that she revealed all the secrets of our project team."

Joanne sighed.

It's not just as simple as being retaliated, she also faces killers sent by competing companies to interrupt the research and development process.

If the nightingale of biotechnology is stillborn, then other companies with competing products will make a lot of money.

Existing products have a longer life cycle.

Products that are intended to be released can monopolize the market.

This is all white money.

As far as the company is concerned, they will not refuse any way to make money, and the assassination is just the beginning.

It's no wonder that biotechnology has such a high level of security for Joanne.

Although the company is huge, it also means that there are leaks everywhere, and there are ghosts everywhere.

"You are not a fuel-efficient lamp either."

Luo Qi walked to the side and got himself a cup of hot tea.

Joanne was stunned for a bit, but she was really ruthless. Regardless of the internal struggle or the external targets of other companies, the blood and corpses left behind her were almost comparable to the most brutal murderers.

Just like Meredith.

After achieving that position, it is absolutely impossible to become a white lotus.

What Luo Qi just wanted to use was their ability.

It is said that companies cannibalize people, but in fact, they even eat their own people, and they also eat each other between companies.

"What about the red ocher?"

Rocky asked.

In the very early days, when Luo Qi first came into contact with her, Luo Qi began to wipe his ass for the mess made by their project team.

He obtained a sum of money from Meredith, and advanced it to the Red Ocher family as a consolation money for them.

The amount of biotechnology given is really too little, no wonder people can't stand it, and would rather sell the iron than to entrust a mercenary to take revenge.

"I was still dissatisfied at first, but then I sent a large sum of money and apologized twice before I reluctantly agreed not to trouble me."

According to "Hamilton", that is, Luo Qi's suggestion at that time, Joanne worked hard to find some funds to settle this matter.

In fact, in the year 2077, human life is worthless.

But the real problem that anyone can't accept is the company's high-ranking arrogant face and mocking small compensation, which is simply insulting.

Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry.

The homeless can really fight you desperately when they are in a hurry.

"Be content, you're still alive anyway."

Luo Qi's attitude towards Joanne is quite acceptable.

Because compared with her colleagues, she really treats homeless people as human lives.
