Tang Yu, Mann and the others left Gloria's apartment.

Pierra, who had been left behind by Mann, smashed the door of the apartment and said to herself.

"For me, who is familiar with the manufacture of various weapons and equipment"

"It's not that difficult"

"I should be able to do it in three minutes"

"Look, it's been fixed!"

Pyrrha stood outside the door, scrambling to piece together the door of her apartment, and then slipped away in the blink of an eye.

The gate lasted less than two seconds before it collapsed and slammed into the ground, echoing through the dark hallway.

"I'm sorry, I just don't have the tools I have, if you still need maintenance fees, remember to find Rebecca!"

Gloria looked at the messy apartment and touched her forehead, frowning slightly helplessly.

David, who had been standing at the bedroom door, suddenly asked, "They're gone, is the trouble solved?" ”

Gloria then turned her attention to David, who had just woken up from a fainting, walked over and helped David back to the bedroom to rest, and then said with a reluctant smile.

"It's okay, the trouble will be solved, you have a good rest, I'll ask for leave from the academy tomorrow"

David looked at his mother's somewhat haggard face, remembered that she would fall asleep on the couch almost every morning, remembered the humility she pleaded in front of the principal to make up for the tuition, and remembered the first time she cried because she didn't want to go to school.

Ever since that real dream, he felt as if he had changed.

He has always felt that it was his mother who forced him to go to Arasaka Academy, it was his mother who forced him to join the Arasaka Tower and climb up, and he forced himself to take her dream as his dream of being his mother.

But in fact, what really persecuted him was poverty and hardship, and it was his weakness and powerlessness that really persecuted him.

And the mother just wants to have a bright and visible future, with such a selfless dream, that person only has the mother.

David, who had figured out a lot of things, whispered, "Mom, I'm fine, I'll go to Arasaka Academy tomorrow for class"

When Gloria heard that David actually took the initiative to say that she was going to Arasaka Academy to take classes, her heart couldn't help but feel hot, so she had to gently help David cover the quilt.

"Well, have a good rest"

After speaking, Gloria walked out of the bedroom, tears came out of the corners of her eyes, she raised her head and tried to take a deep breath to relieve the sadness and emotion, she hoped more than anyone else that David could have a carefree and beautiful youth, seeing that David's youthful heart was worn out of edges and corners, and the reality she faced made her feel more uncomfortable than anyone else, so she could only murmur silently.

"David, maybe when you actually climb to the top of the Arasaka Tower, you can really pursue your dream."

Gloria felt that maybe it was survivor bias, and when she saw that Tang Yu, who was not much older than David, had already entered the top management position of Arasaka Company, she felt that David could really be like Tang Yu and become a master in the company.

"Mr. Tang's favor must be repaid no matter what, his future is really limitless"

Gloria's clenched fists, the dream in her heart never extinguished.

...

"If you're just talking about a deal, I'll go first"

The tall woman in a red leather coat clasped her hands in front of her and said to Mann as she walked.

Mann's deep voice was slightly apologetic: "Well, Qiwei, then you go back first, and I'll talk about the rest myself."

He thought that there would be a big battle in this guild, so he deliberately called the hacker in the team to take charge of Qi Wei, but he didn't expect Tang Yu to be an ordinary person who had not been implanted with a prosthetic, and the hacker network invasion had no effect at all.

Hacker Qi Wei nodded, but her eyes were looking at Tang Yu, and after a while, she moved to Lucy, who was smoking by herself, as if she was thinking about something, and finally turned around and left away from the crowd.

"Reconnect with work"

Mann replied in a deep voice: "Qiwei, don't worry, you won't be missing!" ”

And King Kong's fierce girl in a jacket next to Mann asked Lucy.

"Lucy, what are you going to do, are you with us?"

Tang Yu, who had been walking in the front, suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice.

"I still have a balance to settle between me and her"

Lucy stared at Tang Yu's back with some vigilance, pursed her lips and said nothing.

Tang Yu continued: "Don't worry, this account has nothing to do with Arasaka, if you don't want to get involved in the next thing, it's better to know less."

Under the shadow of the street lights, Lucy's expression could not be seen, and her neon-colored pupils looked at Tang Yu faintly.

"Do you think I still have a choice?"

Lucy knew that from the moment she walked away from the other party's chip, she couldn't get out of this matter, not to mention that the content of the chip involved Arasaka's high-level secrets, and if the military-grade San Weistein prosthetic body was not properly handled, it would be difficult for not only Mann but also herself to continue to hide.

Tang Yu turned to look at Mann and the others, tried his best to make his expression look more sincere, and said in a rather kind tone.

"I think everyone deserves a chance to change their life"

"I remember being a middleman always like to say that everything is negotiable in Night City"

"Although I work in Arasaka, I don't like the company's forced buying and selling"

"So, whether you choose to talk to me, or take San Weistein and leave, you can do it yourself."

Tang Yu knew that the other party had no possibility of refusal at all, but he always had to show that he had a little room for the other party, which was like a wise saying in his hometown.

A soldier who surrenders without a fight.

Mann is also unsure of his mind, he knows that the rule of survival in cyberpunk is not to cooperate with companies that eat people and do not spit out bones, at least to find a middleman to act as a reciprocating between the two.

It was supposed to be a very simple transaction, with Gloria in charge of stealing the delivery prosthesis, and Mann paying for it, and no one knew about it.

Now that someone from the Arasaka Company suddenly intervened, it meant that there was a deeper vortex hidden in it, and he might have given up this prosthetic body directly in the past, but now he desperately wants to become stronger, and he must install this military-grade Sianweistan!

Dolio, the fierce girl in the jacket on the side, persuaded: "Mann, forget it, let's just look for a chance to buy other ones if we haven't seen this prosthetic."

Mann's stout hand gripped the prosthetic bag tightly, and his expression of refusal to let go spoke for itself, he didn't want to give up!

Dorio understands that the seemingly carefree Mann is actually a temper at heart, and he never wants to give up what he insists on, even if anyone tries to persuade him, but the more he is on top, the more someone must remind him.

But Mann, who had been silent, raised his hand to interrupt Dorio's persuasion, and instead said heavily, "I agree to cooperate, but only once..."

This sentence seems to have made Mann very determined, and working with the company means abandoning the usual rules of survival and always being ready to be eaten.

Dorio angrily yelled, "Mann! You're going to kill everybody! ”

Even Lucy, whose expression has always been calm, frowned, and the result of working with the company is often only to fall into hell.
