Early in the night, in the apartment.

Alan leaned in front of his computer, reading the information he had received from Neo. I couldn't help but show a look of disappointment; "Divisions within the company..... Corporate Assassination ..... List of Sleepers...... Contact Records ......"

"Damn, there isn't a plan related to the Sword of Damocles, it seems that we still have to dig up some information from Losil." Alan took a sip of the hot coffee at the table and contacted Losil to report to work.

"Hey, Locille, I've got you covered."

"Did you find Neo? Where are the others? ”

"He's seriously wounded, he's dead, but I've got the information on him back."

"That's it.... It's a bit of a pity, but at least the goal has been achieved, and Ilan has worked hard. ”

"Locill, what exactly was the artificial intelligence system you were talking about last time?"

"Do you remember the last time you asked me about Otter?"

"Hasn't she become a scurrying AI? How....... Could it be said!! Arasaka catch...."

"Yes, Arasaka caught her and tried to control her."

"What a surprise, they not only passed through the black wall, but also caught Ott."

"Any plans?"

"Michiko-sama means, delete her."

"You want to kill Ott!? Is this possible! I think it's already an incredible thing to be able to catch her with the current technology alone, is it possible to kill her? ”

"There's a way to try, and that's the Soul Slayer. There are two problems now, though, and we can't be sure where Ultra was imprisoned and the use of the Soul Slayer."

"Understood, I'll investigate it secretly."

After the call, Alan pulls out a metal box with the Arasaka logo from the drawer, which contains the experimental crack chip "Tsukiyo" that he found in the warehouse.

Alan opened the box, which contained a chip the size of a fingernail. "I don't know what it's like to use it, but I can actually name it after a god."

The next day, Arasaka Tower's Scientific Research Department, in Arasaka Tsuki's office.

"Here, the intelligence chip you wanted, intact." Alan smiled and respectfully placed the chip on Yue's desk.

"You look a little happy, you found the money, huh?" In the face of Alan's unusually attitude, Arasaka felt a little uncomfortable or awkward.

Regarding Arasaka Yue's doubts, Alan showed a strange expression and said softly; "Yue, can you kiss me?"

"Huh!? What nonsense are you talking about, how can I go............ Yes, sir. ”

Faced with this whimsical request, Arasaka Yue, who originally refused, unexpectedly agreed, and after speaking, he got up and came to Alan's face, and gently kissed him on the cheek.

Faced with Arasaka Tsuki's unexpected move, Alan was pleasantly surprised. "Damn, this thing is really not a joke, it's too outrageous!"

The magical effect brought by the moon reading chip made Alan fall into a deep infatuation, and then gave a new order. "Yue, pour me a glass of water."

"Yes." Sure enough, Yue obeyed the order, poured a glass of water and put it in front of Alan.

Alan picked up the teacup in his hand, and couldn't help but fall into this freewheeling power, if he used this to use this on Saburo's guy...........

"Why are you still sitting here drinking tea, go back to work." Tsuki's words exploded like thunder in Alan's mind.

Alan looked a little nervous and said, "Uh, it's.... I'll go right away. With that, he quickly left the office, perhaps in a hurry, and almost hit the door.

Arasaka Tsuki: "What's the matter, this..?" It's weird. ”

Closing the office door, Alan gasped and leaned against the wall, thinking, "Damn, scare me." Could it be that this chip has a time limit? Will there be a distance limit? Damn, I was too impulsive just now, so I'll have to be careful next time, just in case, I'll have to find a few more people to do the experiment. ”

After an afternoon of multiple experiments, Alan had a preliminary understanding of the efficacy of this chip.

Alan sat at his desk and noted in a memo. "The chip has an effect time of one minute, and when used, it must be directly looked into the eyes of the target, and the command distance cannot exceed 10 meters...... Side effects are not noticeable for the time being. ”

"Ailan-kun, what are you doing?" I don't know when Ryoko appeared by Alan's side.

"It's nothing, it's just a product research record." Alan replied as he got up.

"Ai.... Orchid! Your nose is bleeding...!" Ryoko suddenly said in a panic.

"What do you say...... Is it? Bleed... Finish? Alan suddenly felt dizzy, and the nosebleed slowly ran down his nostrils to his mouth, and finally dripped on the floor.

Alan touched the blood on the side of his mouth, suddenly realized something, and whispered, ", I didn't expect the side effects to come......... Yes. ”

With a thud, Alan fell to the ground and fainted.

Ryoko, who was suddenly frightened by the scene in front of her, shouted in panic; "Alan!! Are you okay! Don't scare me, Alan!! ”

Three hours later, inside the Night City Central Hospital.

In a separate room, Alan was lying on the hospital bed, and Ryoko was sitting on the edge of the bed with a sad face.

"My head hurts..... Where am I? ”

Alan opened his eyes with difficulty, looking at the ceiling in confusion.

Seeing that Alan was gradually waking up, Ryoko said excitedly: "You woke up, Alan, how are you feeling now?" Still uncomfortable? ”

Alan: "I remember, I passed out at the company........ What happened later.... I don't remember exactly. Now I feel a little headache and a little nauseous. What's wrong with me? ”

Ryoko: "The doctor said that it may be a side effect of overuse of the implant, and you have been injected with immunosuppressants, and you will be able to recover after a while, don't worry." ”

"Sure enough, it's a side effect, it's really careless.......

"Alan, tell me the truth, where did you get this dangerous implant?" Ryoko asked with a serious face.

"I.... I picked it up outside. ”

"Where?"

Looking at Ryoko, Ailan didn't plan to continue to hide it, "In Arasaka's warehouse." ”

Ryoko gently took Alan's hand and said, "I'm not going to ask you how you got this, but you have to promise me that you will never continue to use it again." ”

"The doctor said that even if your body can bear it, your head will definitely not be able to bear it. It's bound to erode your humanity. ”

Alan smiled slightly; "Do you mean that I might end up being cyberpsychotic?"

Ryoko whispered, "That's the last thing I want to see, so ....."

Ailan got up and sat up from the bed, suddenly hugged Ryoko with her head down, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I won't let you worry anymore, Ryoko." ”

Ryoko was a little at a loss for a moment in the face of Alan's sudden move, so she unconsciously stretched out her hand around his waist, feeling his beating heart.

Alan asked softly, "Your heart is beating a little fast, Ryoko, what's wrong?" ”

"Alan.... Just for a while, please. Ryoko's voice trembled a little.

Alan: "Huh? What do you say for a while? ”

Seeing that Ryoko had no intention of letting go, Ailan smiled helplessly, gently stroked Ryoko's loose black hair with his right hand, and gradually extended it downward, hugging her thin waist, the fine lines and tight touch made him feel a little in love.

"Then listen to you, wait a little longer.".

In the face of Alan's caresse, Ryoko seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and kissed him softly on the lips. Ailan was a little surprised, and wanted to break free, but under the hot kiss of Ryoko, he gradually compromised and felt a burst of intoxication.

And the rest of the game fell into place.
