Chapter 1 Transactions

Next Chapter

"Barre Ruth! Long time no see! I brought what you need! ”

Richie, who was short in front of Ryan, greeted the man sitting on the couch.

Ryan looked at the strong man sitting on the sofa opposite, the sofa that was patched and looked like a small wooden chair about one meter five long was like a small wooden chair for him, his huge body almost occupied most of the sofa, the muscles of the prosthetic body made him look like a King Kong, dark skin, one by one the prosthetics were assembled to make him have a gap between his body, looking like a huge combat robot!

Behind this man stood three men, a moxican-haired man who looked very thin in a leather jacket, and judging by the skin and limbs under his clothes, he should have undergone extensive prosthetic modifications; There are also two women, both of whom have blonde hair, but one is short and the other is long-haired, both of them are very beautiful, and each has its own merits that are impressive.

The short-haired woman is wearing ultra-short ripped jeans, and her upper body is casually wearing a light blue women's sweatshirt, her left hand is a white mechanical prosthesis, and her head has also undergone a prosthetic transformation, but it seems that the first transformation is very rough, and it can be seen that after several transformations have covered up the traces of the first roughness, but there are still clues on closer inspection; The short-haired woman was smiling and looking at Ryan without hesitation.

The long-haired woman wears a white horse jacket, a pure black women's T-shirt, black stockings and white shorts. Ryan only saw that her head seemed to have undergone a small part of the prosthetic modification, and unlike the shoddy work of the short-haired woman, the prosthetic doctor's method of performing a prosthetic on her was obviously much more sophisticated; There was also a point that was different from the short-haired golden woman, her hair was more dazzling, her golden hair was like gold, and her blue eyes were the color of the sea;

Ryan has never seen the sea, I heard that the sea is basically polluted now, and the seaside can only see a gray one, and there is no more like it was a few decades ago, Ryan once saw the sea before it was polluted on Mewtwo of the Arashi Company, the blue waves, the white sky and the sea that could not be seen at a glance, the sound of the waves in Mewtwo was mixed with the sea breeze, and the sound of seagulls from time to time in the distance, for Ryan, the sea was mysterious, beautiful, and peaceful.

This woman is like a princess in a European fairy tale, with blue eyes that are out of place for everyone present. She didn't deliberately look at Ryan, but stood behind Ruth, her head slightly bowed, as if thinking about something.

Her white vest has the cyan signature "Lily" on her heart

"Is her name Lily?"

Ryan thought to himself

"Richie! The best middleman in Westbrook. ”

The woman with short hair and ripped jeans spoke, still smiling, as if teasing Richie.

"Miss Kia, in Westbrook, Spike says he's number two, and no one dares to say he's number one......."

Richie heard the ridicule in Kia's mouth, and could only respond stubbornly

Qiya, who had short blond hair, seemed to feel a little strange when she heard what he said, and looked at Richie suspiciously for a while

Short and frustrated, round, black figure, when he speaks, he always shows a big gold tooth in his front teeth, well, it's me

"It doesn't look like it's been dropped, why did you act like this today, when I saw you before, I didn't drag it like a twenty-five or eighty-thousand, saying that I was the most powerful middleman in the Westwalker area."

Qi Ya paused, recalling the scene in her mind

"That's right! Did you say that Richie had 60 percent of the Westbrook commissions, and that Spike and the other middlemen were 40 percent? ”

"Why, I heard you met Spike the other day, did you ...... Spike real?"

Kia's curious gaze re-examined Richie's body, and there was no sign of injury.

Could it be that my heart is hurt......

"That's it! Miss Kia, let's get down to business first. ”

"Yes, let's get down to business first!"

Kia turned her head sideways and glanced at Lily with her peripheral vision to see that she had raised her head and looked at Richie, who seemed to be interested in the next topic.

"A few days ago, you just hijacked the weapons transport fleet of Arasaka Technology, and you haven't fully digested the weapons, why did you fall into the doctrine of Arasaka Industrial Park again?"

Richie sat down on the couch across from Ruth, looked at Ruth, who was on the couch opposite, and tentatively probed.

Ruth didn't answer Richie right away, but picked up the tequila bottle on the small wooden table in front of the two sofas, took a big sip, and said

"You've forgotten the rules of the middleman since you met Spike? Don't inquire if you shouldn't, I only care about the information I want, did you bring it?"

"Ahem, okay"

Richie coughed and introduced Ryan to the crowd

"This is Ryan. Hilbert: He's got the information you want."

Everyone's eyes instantly looked at Ryan, who was wearing a black trench coat, black shoes, and black trousers, not because Ryan liked black clothes, but because black was more able to blend in with the environment of Night City.

"Hello Barre. Ruth, a long-admired daimyo"

As he spoke, Ryan stepped forward and stretched out his right hand

Ruth didn't stretch out his hand, but looked at Ryan's young face, with a little anger, and said to Richie in a questioning tone

"When is the middleman selling intelligence going to let the two parties meet?!"

Richie subconsciously wiped the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, he didn't know what he was afraid of, he felt that Ruth seemed to be a little angry, he was afraid that this transaction would be yellow, so he explained resignedly

"I don't want to break the rules of the road...... It's just that this time it's a little special...... Because Mr. Lane was not interested in the honorarium, he said that there was a special requirement to be sure to meet you in person......"

Ruth softened a little when he heard Ritchie's explanation, looked into Ryan's eyes, and said

"You look like you're in your twenties, so why do you think I'm going to agree to your request? I don't know how you got Richie to say yes, but you're breaking the rules of the Night City Path! ”

Ryan could feel the murderous look in Ruth's eyes, but he wasn't afraid to look at him

"Because of the entire Night City, you can't find more detailed information about the Arasaka Industrial Park than mine!"

"Hahaha! Attaboy! ”

Ruth saw that Ryan's eyes did not flinch at all, but he was able to look at him, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, he joined the Old Mexico Gang at the age of sixteen, and in a full thirty years, he killed countless people, he was only twenty years old, how many people can he kill from the age when he was just able to pick up a gun? But Ryan gave Ruth the feeling of a beast, a man-eating beast.

"Then I want to see what kind of intelligence gives you such confidence!"

Ryan didn't continue to speak, but silently took out an information chip from the pocket of his trench coat and placed it on the four-legged low wooden table in front of Ruth.

Ruth picked up the chip and inserted it into the chip slot around his neck.

Ruth's pupils flickered orange-yellow, and a large amount of information about the Arasaka Industrial Park in the chip was poured into his retina like a holographic projection; Ruth's expression gradually became shocked, and as he watched more deeply, the shock faded away, replaced by a kind of indifference, a wary indifference!

Five minutes later, Ruth's pupils stopped flickering, and he silently raised his head and looked at Ryan's eyes, which became more vigilant.

"Tell me what you want."
