Chapter 6: Cat Girl
There is no night in Night City, and under the intense neon lights is the beginning of madness, and those madmen who have endured the whole day are now beginning to unleash themselves.
In a dark alley, Shirahoshi leans against a graffiti-covered wall and looks up at the sky, his pupils glowing bright red.
Muammar: "White Hoshi, this time there is a big job. β
"Tell me about it."
"You know, there was an employee there who made a good thing, and it was infuriating that his boss took the work he had worked so hard to get and fired him backhanded.
"That guy was so angry that he found me, all you have to do is infiltrate the company, find the computer and upload a virus, so that the boss can be ruined at the report meeting."
"I see, no problem." Bai Xing replied without thinking, he is not a newcomer now, and he can also be said to be a little famous in the Tao.
"Refreshing! I really didn't see the wrong person at the beginning, so I'll wait for your good news and good luck, Shirahoshi. β
Shirahoshi hung up the communication and thought about biotechnology again.
Biotech is also a super company, and their company must have a ridiculously large number of guards, and besides, he is just going in to install a small virus.
So he Shirahoshi decided to be careful and definitely not to trigger the alarm.
Drop it secretly, don't shoot it.
ββββββββββ
In a private room at the Afterlife Bar, four people sit together.
A dark-skinned super strong man, an equally tall big sister, a little Lori with a pale green double ponytail, and a beautiful girl wearing a black tights, wrapped in a pink coat, and short hair.
Her face has traces of prosthetic transformation, but because it is made into a cat beard, it adds a bit of cuteness to the girl.
"So, I'll go first, Mann." The girl took a sip of the wine in the glass and said to the dark-skinned strong man.
"Well, go ahead." Mann smiled, "Sasha, stay safe, we'll be there later." β
He was relieved of Sasha's abilities.
"Bye-bye! Rebecca, don't drink too much. β
The double ponytail Lori also waved at her, "See you later!" β
"Come on, Sasha." The blonde-haired muscular eldest sister raised her glass to greet her.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Sasha picked up her satchel and walked out of the afterlife bar.
At the beginning, he was recruited by Mann into his team just because of his hacking ability, but he didn't expect to feel like a family now.
Sasha's good mood stopped before she reached the closed door of the biotechnology, and she grabbed her satchel and pulled a cable from the palm of her left hand to plug it into the building's system.
As Mann said, Sasha's abilities are so good that in less than a few moments, the door opens automatically.
Seeing this, Sasha flashed in sideways, and her light body quickly came to the back of the counter, where she sat and connected it again with the cable.
Soon, the cameras on the ceiling that were looking around with red beams of light were also hanging their heads.
"Sasha, did you go in? Get it done quickly and leave right away, kid. Jammers don't work forever. β
Mann's voice rang out in the communication band, and Sasha replied "No problem" and immediately took the elevator to the top.
Skillfully hacking into the office door to open it, Sasha trotted all the way to the computer, took off her coat and sat in her office chair, and took out the helmet she had been using from her satchel.
The Mewtwo-like headband-like device also comes with two cat ears, which are very cute.
She plugged the cable that ran out of the back of her helmet into her computer, took it on for herself, and began diving.
Sasha's body temperature began to rise rapidly, but her maneuvers were also very fast, and the technical defense of the biotechnology was as thin as paper under her attack, and it was broken with a slight stab.
"Well done, get out of here before anyone else catches you!"
Sasha gladly accepted Mann's compliment, smiling slightly, and just as she was about to exit the dive and leave, the girl suddenly saw an encrypted file.
ββ¦β¦ Mom. β
She recalled the scene of her mother lying on the hospital bed when she was a child, and clicked in.
β¦β¦
Type: Pain reliever
Side effects: Asymptotic neurodegeneration
1. Side effects will not be revealed to the public
2. The product will not be withdrawn from the market
β¦β¦
Originally...... I see......
Sasha withdrew from the deep connection, took off his helmet, and his sparkling eyes flashed with anger and unshakable determination.
The biotech drug killed Sasha's mother, and she has now decided to expose this confidential information to N54 News.
After she connected to the computer and started to upload the data, Sasha looked at the slowly growing progress bar, and Mann's communication came to her head:
"The jammer is dead! Get out of there! We've got what we need! β
Sasha ignored it, she hid behind her desk and pulled out her pistol "Lizzy", loaded it, she was determined.
"! Sasha! Where are you?! β
Mann's tone grew more anxious, as Mann had said, the jammer had failed, the alarm in the building was blazing, and waves of guard robots were hurrying towards her.
"Sorry......"
Sasha says sorry to Mann and cuts off the communication.
She's going to buy time.
ββββββββββ
And on the other side.
"It's weird......"
Shirahoshi looked at the defenseless and open door in front of him, and fell into deep doubt.
"Are the security of these big companies so unrestrained?"
He even wondered if he was in the wrong place, but both the address sent by the "old captain" and the sign on the top of the building in front of him clearly told him: You are not wrong, this is the place.
βBIOTECHNICAβ
Shirahoshi touched the chip slot on his back neck and cautiously slipped in.
Fortunately, the guards in the building are not less at all, and all of them are intelligent armed robots produced by Kangtao.
The robots are holding rifles, scrupulously patrolling with their electronic eyes.
"Platinum Star!"
In a dark corner, Shirahoshi dragged a scrapped robot to hide it, and he had been observing it for a long time, and the robot's patrol route overlapped with the path he had to take, and it had to be solved.
Fortunately, he directly used the time-stopping ability to kill it, without alerting any of the other guards-
"Alert! Alert! There is an enemy invasion! There is an enemy invasion! β
βοΌβ
Shirahoshi was a little incomprehensible: Didn't I solve it when I stopped and stopped?
The red siren lights swirled on the ceiling above him, and before Shirahoshi had time to think about it, he was ready for battle and looked at the entrance of the hallway, where the sound of dense footsteps gradually grew from far to near, and a fierce battle was about to break out.
Sure enough, a swarm of armed robots appeared at the entrance of the corridor and rushed towards him, their metal legs and feet landing on the carpet with a muffled "thump".
"Platinum ...... Belch...... Well?? β
Shirahoshi, who was about to use his ability to strike first, fell into self-doubt again.
The group of armed robots sped past Shirahoshi without even looking at him.
βοΌβ
What do you mean? Look down on me?
Shirahoshi withdrew his stand-in and stood in place for a moment.
He couldn't figure out what was going on after thinking about it, so he simply didn't want to, first completed the commission given to him by Muammar, and then quickly left here, he had to be happy that these nerd robots didn't come to trouble him!
ββββββββββ
Hiding behind her desk, Sasha poked her head out every now and then fired two shots out of the office where the wreckage of robots was piled up, and she had already dealt with several waves of enemies.
But what about the progress bar? She glanced at the computer, and it was 80 percent uploaded.
She needs more time.
Sasha shot again, but only heard two crisp "clicks", and the "Lizi" in her hand had already run out of bullets, but the enemy's fire continued to strafe her.
She pulled out a grenade and threw it out, blowing up three or two robot guards and kicking up smoke and dust.
The cat-like figure sprang out, and she leaped towards the cold, armed machines, claws popping out of her fingernails.
One more point...... A little more I can ......
In the face of these killing machines, the girl exploded with amazing resilience, and she destroyed all the robots with her claws.
As soon as this batch was settled, the next batch came in again, and Sasha had no choice but to dodge backwards one after another, and finally returned to the desk.
The rain of bullets on the other end kept "suddenly", Sasha at this end shrunk under the table panting, and she glanced at the world outside the floor-to-ceiling window, jagged and colorful.
She thought back to her mother, to the days she had spent with Mann, and Sasha's eyes sparkled with color.
"I'm really sorry now......" Sasha sighed, she glanced at the upload progress, ninety-seven percent, and then hacked into the new batch of robots that broke in outside.
The robots she had hacked turned their guns and began firing at their companions.
Finally, Sasha pulls out a pack of time bombs and starts preparing for installation under his desk.
At that moment, a hand suddenly reached over and grabbed the arm she was about to mount.
"You'll waitβ"
Sasha was startled, and his right hand subconsciously popped out its claws and grabbed at the figure holding his arm.
Unexpectedly, it was immediately controlled.
"Don't blow it up, I haven't commissioned it yet." The person who came was Bai Xing, who looked a little helpless.
"You let me go first!"
"Good, good."
Bai Xing, who rushed here, let go of her arm when he heard this, and Sasha saw the man in front of him clearly.
No impression, ordinary appearance, this is Sasha's evaluation.
"Where are youβ" Sasha was about to speak, but was stopped by Shirahoshi:
"I'll talk about myself later, but I'm not an enemy anyway." As he spoke, Shirahoshi took out a chip from his pocket and handed it to Sasha, "I think your thing should be almost ready, although I don't understand it, but it's full soon."
When your stuff is ready, you help me upload this to the computer, and I'll give you enough time to drag it up, and now, we can only cooperate! β
There really is no other way at the moment, Sasha nodded after a short thought, and said, "No problem! β
