Chapter 18 Venomous Fangs

night.

The neon night gradually enveloped the entire city.

The rows of buildings are also lit up with mottled night lights. Westbrook Cherry Blossom Street (Note 1) is bustling with pedestrians coming and going, and the neon advertising signs on the shops along the street are flashing with holographic projections.

This charming street near the river bend in the inner city is full of pink colors like Japanese cherry blossoms.

A long modified off-road vehicle and a Delamain taxi parked in front of an apartment one after another. Mann and others stepped out of the off-road vehicle, and Tang Yu stepped out of the Delamain taxi.

Tang Yu looked up at the Marina Bay Apartment, which was only seven or eight stories high, then looked sideways at Lucy and asked, "This is where you live."

Lucy walked straight ahead and spoke directly without turning around.

"Of course it's not as good as the villa area where the top executives of your company live."

"But the only place that meets your needs of confidentiality, isolation from electronic surveillance, no interruption by others, and where you will never encounter companies or gangs is this place."

"If you think there is a better place to go, it's not too late to go there."

Dolio added from the side.

"Lucy is a technical hacker in our team, and her confidentiality has always been strict. It is best to discuss this cooperation at her home."

Tang Yu suddenly felt that their prejudice against him was indeed very deep, but it was indeed true in his imagination. People would inevitably be disgusted by wearing the skin of a company dog, but he could see it. This was better than when he and Johnny treated the Arasaka family every day.

He is quite friendly even though he talks about it.

He didn't say much, and followed Lucy into the apartment building and started climbing the stairs.

The entire stairwell is filled with dark cyan, and the incandescent lamp on the ceiling is very old, and it flickers slightly when it shines.

It wasn't until everyone climbed to the top floor and saw an electronic gate on the left side of the corridor that Lucy walked over and opened the door.

Tang Yu followed and walked in, and saw that the entire apartment was not large in size, and the common interior design was similar to the apartment that Gloria rented.

The living room is divided into a bathroom and a toilet, as well as a connected bedroom. Basic living furnishings such as simple leather sofas and glass coffee tables are placed in the hall.

The bathtub curtain in the bathroom was half covered, and you could see that the bathtub was still filled with ice cubes that had not completely melted.

The glass coffee table in the living room was empty except for a lone ashtray.

Another valuable thing at home is the hacker chair and computer desk that are essential for network hackers.

The most eye-catching thing is the floor-to-ceiling panoramic glass bay window in the living room. Through this large bay window, you can see the seaside view of Night City.

Lucy lightly covered her temples with her left hand, and there were yellow rings flashing in her pupils. After a few seconds, she said: "It's okay, I have turned off the electronic probes, all the facilities for camera recording, and the entire room has been electronically isolated from the network and physically soundproofed.

You can start negotiating a deal."

After finishing speaking, he walked to the only floor-to-ceiling bay window in the room and sat there, lighting a cigarette and smoking silently.

As if admiring it, on the river bend in the middle of the two ends of the city, a long steel bridge sits across it, and further away in sight is the sea rocket launch base.

Mann didn't want to show off to Tang Yu anymore, so he sat down and asked straight to the point.

"What exactly do you want to work with us on?"

Tang Yu sat on the sofa by the bay window at the other end, looked at each other across the coffee table with Mann and others, and said lightly.

"I want to cooperate with you to deceive the people of Arasaka Company, or to be precise, my sworn enemy in Arasaka."

After hearing Tang Yu's words, everyone was obviously stunned. Even the cigarette on Lucy's fingertips stopped in mid-air and ignited quietly.

Mann never imagined that by cooperating with people from Arasaka Company, the target would be to mess with people from Arasaka Company.

If Tang Yu is required to take action at this level, the target he wants to deceive will definitely not be simple.

Mann's tone was somewhat sarcastic: "It seems like dog bites dog in the company."

Tang Yu was very calm: "As long as something dares to bite you, even if the other person is a dog, you have to bite it back, right?"

"Not long after I came back, I was plotted against by people in the company, and Gloria's car accident was closely related to them."

"When things get to this point, either I will trample them to death in the company, or they will trample me to death."

Lucy on the bay window couldn't help but look at Tang Yu on the sofa with her peripheral vision. Her young and delicate appearance showed no signs of having experienced a cruel workplace, but the words she spoke always made people feel an inexplicable emotion, sometimes like

A lone wolf sometimes looks like a lamb, making people confused.

Dorio, on the other hand, took a deeper look than Mann, and asked additionally: "If intervening in the disputes within your Arasaka company involves the secrets of Arasaka's top management, aren't you afraid that we will get hold of it and sell it as intelligence? You should know

Yes, there are many people watching Arasaka’s movements.”

Tang Yu said calmly with an indifferent expression.

"It seems you still don't quite understand the functions of the Counterintelligence Department."

"If any information about this matter is leaked, anyone who knows about it will be labeled by Arasaka as an enemy who stole the company's information."

"And I represent the counterintelligence department, and I only need to be responsible for dealing with the enemy."

When Mann heard this, his temper suddenly rose. He stood up and glared at Tang Yu and asked: "According to you, if something goes wrong, you will put all the blame on us?"

Tang Yu's answer was decisive and straightforward: "Do you expect the people in the company to protect you like a holy matron and take all the blame for you, so that you can have no luck when cooperating? When working with a company, you see more than just

Just sincerity."

After hearing these harsh words, Dolio directly held down Mann, who was about to get angry, and said directly to Tang Yu: "I think what you are telling the truth is at least better than those middlemen who are full of lies."

Tang Yu couldn't help but smile and praise Dolio: "Perhaps you are more suitable to lead this team than Mann. Now that we have reached a preliminary consensus, it is time to talk about specific cooperation matters."

Under Dolio's pressure, Mann patiently sat down and continued to listen to Tang Yu's explanation and arrangements.

Tang Yu turned to look at Lucy and said, "You can pass the contents of the chip to them. Since we are cooperating, we should know more about the real situation."

Lucy was somewhat resistant to being directed by an outsider or a company employee. After hesitating for a moment, she took out the chip and threw it to Mann.

After Mann and the others inserted the chip into the slot on the back of their heads and read part of the conversation between Tang Yu and Jenkins, as well as the origins of the military-grade SiAnWestan, they immediately understood why Tang Yu said that anyone who installs SiAnWestan would definitely die.

Because this powerful military-grade prosthetic body is an experimental product of military technology, it is specially equipped for use by cyberpunks with military physical literacy, and then specific human experiment data is generated by observing the use and operation of the installed object.

Even though Mann had known for a long time that the prosthetic body he purchased came from the body of a cybermaniac, he still didn't think about this aspect.

If it is really installed like this, I am afraid that it will unknowingly become a test subject of military technology. Even the dead body will be sent to the laboratory for dissection and research, just like turning around suddenly and seeing the scarlet blood snake dormant in the dark open.

The sharp fangs came towards me.

Mann's whole body shuddered.
