Chapter 47 Funeral(1/2)
"Mr. Li, the strength of your prosthetic bone is close to that of a fifth-grade military alloy, and it needs to be cut with a molecular knife. We are just a branch, and the equipment we have is limited, so we cannot safely perform a craniotomy or install a built-in interface for you.
But if you are in a hurry, I can customize a glove kit for you. This is an external frame for installing the ballistic coordinator, adding two data reading slots, installing your chip and ICE components, and a pair of AR glasses.
After setting up a subnet, you can read the chip data."
Damn! Quacks! 3D printing a glove and adding a pair of glasses costs me 1998? And yours is basically a civilian-grade peripheral, not as good as CSI’s military products!
"As for the skin grafting plan, I have three specifications for you to choose from: junior, middle, and high. The primary level only performs basic tissue bundling on the dermis to stop bleeding, and then transplants the antibacterial bionic skin.
On this basis, the intermediate level adds fireproof coating, insulating coating, and optional subcutaneous ceramic bulletproof armor of various specifications, which is the most cost-effective.
Advanced ones include thermal energy converters, energy-gathering capacitors, ultra-light bulletproof armor made of nanomaterials, optical camouflage, molecular-level bacterial strain immune customized leather, a complimentary cosmetic surgery, and store VIP membership special benefits..."

"..."
Li Pan looked at the tablet that was handed to him, "Only 9998!" "Amazing price!" "Oh my God, what a bargain! Get it now!!" There are three packages.
Well, you can’t say that they are particularly cheating, after all, the cost of the surgery is also included.
"1998 9998Thank you..."
So when Li Pan walked out of the prosthetic shop with skin transplants, gloves and glasses, the sun was dazzling again.
"Welcome to Chaos Technology Support, I am your intelligent assistant Fuxi, and I have now linked you to the public safety system.
Citizen Li Pan, account cash 5.32, loan repayment 8291.43. Total liabilities 30XXXX.XX.
Your next debt will be due for settlement on the 15th of this month. Please keep your account with sufficient balance.
Your mental deviation value is normal. Thank you for using the public safety system. I wish you all the best."
Ah...my account has fallen below the new lower limit...
Well, in fact, it is enough for the legal account to balance the books, and he may still have 5 million assets in the virtual currency black market. If the Oda family's second-hand brain plugs are cleaned, they can be sold for more than 200,000 in cash.
If the small gift given by President Toudo can be repaired, it can also restore a mouthful of blood.
However, these black money must rely on Shiba. Although she is a professional hacker, she is not a professional financial expert. I guess there is no need to count on the repayment date this month. It seems that we still need to hurry up and start a wave of Shura Club, just wait for Shiba to find the 'farm'
Just do one thing and count on their family’s harvest to repay the loan this month.
By the way, this time Yu Chai Financial sent a lot of money to Monster Company to "apologise", but it was all "overseas assets", so that Li Pan had no right to interfere, which meant that he had made himself bankrupt again.
, and finally gave a lot of benefits to the general managers of other subsidiaries.
This is not because the other party deliberately messed with him, it was just to compete for the title of Gao Tianyuan's executive officer. The Hashiba family almost went bankrupt and cashed out a large amount of their assets to win over the Ye Group and the Red Tengu. These days, if you are so willing to spend money, then
Naturally, with help from Dao Duo, he defeated the other four elders and became the final winner.
Anyway, the head office was very satisfied. Assets in other dimensions were also assets, so they rewarded Li Pan with a silver key, okay...
Oh my gosh...what shall we have for dinner today...
After reporting all day, I had to have a skin grafting surgery after get off work. Li Pan is starving to death now.
Although the internal injuries were healed, the energy was smooth, and the fighting power was invincible, I was still hungry.
After the third round of Jiuyin Refining, Li Pan was in a state of ravenous hunger all the time. He obviously took advantage of the guards to confront Ye Shi at the door during breakfast, and went to the cafeteria to eat all the food buckets. Unexpectedly, he would eat up all the food in the canteen after get off work. I can’t stand it any longer.
I only have 5 yuan in my pocket, so I have to go to the food relief station if I want to eat...
While Li Pan was searching the Internet for which relief station had the fastest queue, he suddenly received a text message from the pastor. He said that the funeral was ready. If you have time, you can go there. If you can't make it in time, you can also use the Chaomeng live broadcast link to take a look.
A funeral? Well, actually, there are no remains to say goodbye to. We just play the holographic image of the Big Bear family and use an artificial intelligence emotion simulation program to hold a farewell party.
After all, people are emotional animals. Sometimes, even though it is useless to know that the opposite person is a projection simulated by a program, the living person still needs a chance to say goodbye to sadness.
Li Pan thought for a while and took the subway there. He didn't enter the church, but walked around in the yard outside. It didn't look like a funeral, but more like a family gathering in the Latino community. There were still people on the grass.
An altar was set up and people sang and danced.
It is said to be a funeral, but it is actually closer to the Latino Day of the Dead. In their culture, they seem to believe that dead family and friends can eventually be reunited, and death is the destination of old life and the beginning of new life.
In addition to the classic home-brewed tequila and yerba mate, the table also displays a variety of corn soup, chocolate, bread, rice dumplings, hot sauce, pumpkins, and various sweets and desserts. Although it is an offering to the deceased, of course it is for the whole family.
Enjoy, it seems that the bond of family can really connect the two worlds together, it is really optimistic.
But when he is hungry, someone treats him. Maybe the big bear is really blessing him in another world.
So Li Pan shrugged, shook hands with the pastor, chatted for a while, and went to eat.
"Hey Amigo, are you that Li?"
I was eating pumpkin pie when a big young man came up to talk to me.
"I am Juan and Lena is my cousin."
Li Pan wiped it on the tablecloth and shook hands with him.
"Hi, oh, I heard the pastor mentioned that you are new to the city? How is the Night City?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Juan nodded,
"It's much better than in the wilderness. I didn't know how long it would take to get the temporary residence permit. Thanks to Lena's help, she transferred the ownership of her old house to my mother. It's a pity...
Alas, I won’t mention it. Anyway, I heard about it, thank you. Oh, I can’t tell you are so strong. You have strength in your hands. Is it a prosthetic body?”
Li Pan took a look at him. This young man was quite big. He must have been enhanced with hormones. He also looked at the calluses on his hands.
"Do you box?"
Juan laughed heartily and said,
"I earned a fee for entering the city, so I won't fight now. Those scavenging bastards outside will stab people with knives if they can't afford to lose. Damn! You almost stabbed me in the waist! Anyway, my mother plans to open a family.
At the bar, I’ll beat her up.”
"The bar is great. If we add some side dishes, the small restaurant can make money."
"That's not true! That's what I said too! A potato burrito can be sold for fifteen yuan in Night City! Mommy! It's just a money grab!"
"That's not true, it's just a money grab..."
Li Pan and Juan chatted for a while and drank two drinks. After a while, some gangsters from the Lover's Gang invited him to drink. They seemed to want to get him to join the gang, and they obviously also took a fancy to Juan's size. Even if
Being a goalkeeper can be a deterrent. But this young man seems to have been pushed away. It seems that he has also seen the horrors in the black boxing arena. He also has a mother to support at home and does not want to live a life of bloodshed on the streets anymore.
p>
He wanted to live a stable life, so Li Pan didn't want him to join the gang, so he just took care of himself. After a while, another old man in formal clothes came to talk, but this was an Asian with silver hair, short and tall.
Thin, standing in a military posture with a straight waist.
"Hello Mr. Li."
"Why, aren't you from Lena's side too?"
Then the old man showed him his ID card.
"I am from the third place."
"Three places? What three places."
Li Pan was confused and took the other party's ID and took a look at it.
PUBLIC SECURITY AGENCY
THE THIRD INVESTIGATION DEPARTMENT
The Third Investigation Division of the Public Security Bureau
...What the hell? Is it fake?
Then Fuxi spoke to him through the microphone in his glasses.
"You have now been linked to the public security system, and the system confirms that the documents are legal, authentic and valid.
For public safety reasons, citizens are requested to cooperate and assist the Security Bureau agents in their investigations to the extent permitted by law."
Li Pan had no choice but to swallow the cake in his mouth and hand the certificate back to the other party. He glanced around and found that there were people coming and going around, but no one seemed to notice the old man, as if he was an invisible ghost.
p>
Has the Internet Supervisor taken over the local authority... Maybe if someone throws a cup as a sign, several divisions will suddenly descend from the orbit to catch him...
So he immediately reneged on the company's Security Bureau manual,
"Dear Special Commissioner of the Security Bureau, if you have any business proposals, please make an appointment with our company during working hours. Our company will respond within three working days. For arrests and searches, please present legal documents authorized by the Security Committee. For compulsory interrogations, please provide the public security system's
Recording and video backup. As the acting manager, I have the right to require the presence of cadres and above from the General Justice Department, and have full authority to entrust the company to appoint lawyers to provide legal assistance..."
The old man from the Security Bureau was not surprised by his reaction and put away his ID.
"No, I'm not talking about official business. I just want to ask you some personal questions. Our conversation has no legal effect. You have the right to remain silent, and you can also use the system to record."
"...I remained silent and started recording from the security system."
Li Pan is feeling miserable, offending the security bureau to cancel your account, offending the company to delete your file, these two thousand and five hundred dollars are really hard to make money with the special code!
The old man had no expression on his face and sent a video via an anonymous link.
