Chapter 16 Must-Talk Deals
Gloria faced Mann and the others uneasily, even if she tried to hide the deal with Mann, David, who was standing on the side, still saw the clue.
David saw a group of strangers in front of him suddenly slam open the door and rush to his house, his tone was not good, and he looked like he was collecting debts, and from the black man's questioning, he could tell that it was related to the prosthetic transaction.
"Could it be that my mother hacked the other party's money, but it was not delivered, so I was approached by the other party, but where did the prosthetic mother get it? How did you get involved with the top management of Arasaka Company? ”
He had too many questions in his mind to find out what was going on, but the tense atmosphere of the scene didn't give him a chance to speak.
Gloria noticed that David was about to stop talking, and her heart was very anxious, if she talked about this matter in front of David, she would not be able to hide everything she had done.
"No, you must not let David know!"
She deeply understands David's personality and stubbornness hidden in the deepest part of her heart, if she lets David know that she is stealing, I'm afraid he would rather die than go to Arasaka Academy.
At this time.
Tang Yu's words almost pulled her back from the brink of helplessness.
"This has nothing to do with Gloria."
"Mann, it's me who wants to talk to you about business."
"How about going out and finding a suitable place to talk?"
Gloria looked back at Tang Yu, her eyes full of gratitude.
She didn't expect that at this time, Tang Yu would take the initiative to take over the conversation and cover up the truth that was about to be pierced for herself, and Tang Yu relieved herself at the most embarrassing time.
Mann didn't refuse outright, but asked rhetorically.
"Who are you, what does it have to do with this, and why do you want to negotiate a deal with you?"
Although Mann looks like a black strong man cyberpunk, he usually charges ahead and experiences countless bullets, but he is not reckless.
So when faced with Tang Yu's proposal, he didn't immediately refuse, he just wanted to get the prosthetic body and leave, and didn't want to get involved in other disputes.
Gloria took the initiative to explain, "Mann! I didn't mean to delay the transaction or to embezzle your money, I was going to complete the transaction that day, but I got into a serious car accident on the highway on the way! ”
"It was Mr. Tang who saved us, David and I were just discharged from the hospital, and we didn't have time to explain this matter to you"
"As for Mr. Tang's identity, it doesn't matter if you don't know, in short, he is my benefactor, it's a big deal that I will return the money for this transaction to you! I'm not selling stuff anymore! ”
Gloria worries that Mann, who is a cyberpunk, is very sensitive to Tang Yu's status as a senior employee of the Arasaka Company, and if a conflict breaks out, it may even endanger Tang Yu's life.
Waiting for Mann and them here is part of Tang Yu's plan, after receiving the hint given by Lucy, he already knows that Gloria sold the San Westein prosthetic body to a cyberpunk named Mann, since the other party has now come to the door, there is no need to let Gloria continue to protect her, from her performance just now, she can already see the sincerity and choice.
Tang Yu left the sofa and walked in front of Gloria, looking directly at Mann and the others.
"You can't afford not to make this deal."
"I can give you this prosthesis"
"But there's only one end for you."
"That's death..."
This sentence came out of Tang Yu's mouth easily, but Mann sounded really tight in his heart.
He didn't have a very exact grasp now, and he couldn't tell how much of the other party's deterrence or truth or moisture was in this sentence, but his tone was obviously more explosive.
"Don't try to play tricks, I don't think there's any need to continue talking"
Men ignored Gloria's eager explanation, but just looked at Tang Yu and continued to guess, "You are from the company. ”
Obviously, Mann roughly guessed his true identity from Tang Yu's clothes and Gloria's nervous performance, but it is not clear what kind of origin Tang Yu has in the company, even if it is a company dog, there are also big and small, if it is just an ordinary small company employee, Mann has nothing to worry about.
When Mann asked this, the other companions around him also stared at Tang Yu, equally curious about his true origin.
Just as everyone was waiting for Tang Yu to tell his identity, a faint voice came in from outside the door to answer everyone's questions.
"Arasaka Company"
"Deputy Minister of Counterintelligence"
As soon as the words fell.
Lucy quietly walked into the apartment with a cigarette in one hand.
Her answer immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room, who had no idea that the other party would be such an identity.
Mann looked back at the nonchalant Lucy and asked, "How do you know his identity?" ”
In response to Mann's questioning, Lucy just lowered her eyebrows and exhaled a puff of smoke, as if what was in front of her had nothing to do with her, and continued.
"He's right, if you put on this prosthesis, you will definitely be targeted by the company like a monitor lizard, until you are killed by this prosthesis and then look for you to collect the body"
The tall woman in the red leather coat on the side asked in a serious tone, "What does this matter have to do with the company?" ”
Lucy raised her neon-like eyes and looked expressionlessly at Tang Yu who was standing in front.
"I don't think you want to talk about it in this place, do you, Mr. Tang?"
When Tang Yu saw Lucy tell his true identity, he already knew that the other party had read the content of the chip, which was about the conversation between himself and his boss James, but the content involved was not deep, because he had the habit of changing the memory chip frequently, and generally speaking, the content in the chip would not be stored for more than forty-eight hours, so the content she knew was limited.
Tang Yu put on his upper suit jacket and walked straight towards the broken door, passing by Mann said lightly.
"Don't be stunned, grab your things."
At this time, Gloria heard Tang Yu's words, thought about it and handed the bag in her hand to Mann, which contained the military-grade Sianweistan.
Mann took the bag, he didn't expect the prosthetic body to get his hands in this way, he was not an arrogant and unreasonable person, now that the things were in his hands, he didn't have any reason to look for trouble in someone else's apartment, and his rough voice was a little embarrassed.
"I didn't expect you to have a car accident, it was my fault to kick your door just now, I will compensate you for the repair costs, sorry!"
After saying that, he transferred 2,000 euros to the other party, which was completely enough to repair the door and pay a month's rent for the apartment.
But Gloria didn't care about the door, but also handed the pile of paper bags in her hand to Mann: "You can get the money back for this transaction first, please don't embarrass Mr. Tang, there are still 10,000 yuan left for you, I will transfer it to you from the account later"
Gloria's actions made Mann a little sweaty, the other party was obviously repaying Tang Yu's life-saving grace, a weak woman would rather be poor than drag others down, such a move Mann actually appreciated from the bottom of his heart, at least he was willing to advance the transaction fee in advance, just to value Gloria's credit and quality.
Mann took the money and nodded in agreement, then said to the bearded man next to him, "Pila, you blew the door of the apartment open just now, and you are responsible for repairing it, otherwise you won't think about that golden hand prosthesis!" ”
Pyra was suddenly unhappy, and said impatiently: "Mann, obviously you made me explode, I said that you knocked on the door and you didn't do it, and now you want to dump me on the head when something happens, I remember this account!" ”
