Chapter 10: What is a Legend?
Zhu Ranran is an ordinary employee of Kangtao's material control management department.
If she likes Kangtao's job, it's fart, no one likes anything, 360 days a year, 16 hours a day chasing behind her ass, especially work.
But she knows that it is not only work that is chasing after her, but also life, and if she loses this job, life will swallow her.
After 22 years of hard study, he finally entered the Kangtao company, and his parents are also dying, and now is the time for their family to live a good life.
She doesn't have any big ideals, she just wants her family to live a good life.
As for overtime - there are gold members of the trauma team anyway, plus don't die.
took out her mobile phone, and Zhu Ranran sent this message to her mother: "Mom, I'm off work." β
"Okay, let's see what to eat today."

After a day of overtime, I went back and had a bowl of hot noodles cooked by my mother... That's how it should be.
"Don't make a sound, I ask, you answer."
A tremendous force locked around her neck, and a processed electronic sound came from behind her, like a demon's voice.
Fear swept through her brain β she couldn't understand why such a thing could happen in Atlanta!
"What are you doing in there?"
The knife slashed through her skin, and the cold touch made her sober in an instant!
Do you want to work or die?
"I--Deputy Director Cai asked me to put two infrared alarms! One by the window and one at the door! β
"Do you hear that?"
"Got itβ" Lille in the car replied as he thought, "and asked her how she got in without setting off the alarm." β
"I can take you inside!" Zhu Ranran hurriedly said without waiting for V to ask, "I set up a back door, and the detector can identify my biological information, I originally thought that the director might forget something and let me go in again!" β
"Then let her take you in, and tell her not to play any tricks."
"Okay."
In the car, Lille didn't seem to fluctuate, but he was somewhat glad that he didn't make any wrong choices.
Zhu Shen hadn't quit the channel yet, and said in surprise: "Thoughtful--I really appreciate you more and more, you really should come to Kangtao." β
"Thank you for the invitation, but it's not done yet."
On the other side, Zhu Ranran didn't play tricks, and under the threat of V's gun, he turned off the security system that had just been installed, and found the security backdoor interface that Zhu Shen said.
"Found a place - but what about this chick?" V asked Lille as he plugged in the chip and waited for the program to run.
"Don't kill me!" Zhu Ranran's tone was terrified, but he didn't forget to whisper according to V's request, "I did what I said, please let me go, my family is still waiting for me!" β
Zhu Shen gave an idea: "My suggestion is to kill her, there is a special place behind the wine cabinet to put the body, don't worry about the trauma team." β
"Wonderful." V complained, "Is the purpose of this place to be invited in?" β
Zhu Shen didn't want to answer.
Lille thought for a while and said, "No, if Cai Ping appoints her to work, the probability of staring at her biomonitoring data is not small, but... Kangtao seems to be the company with the most overtime accidents?
I could program her basic prosthesis to create the illusion that she was asleep without sleep, so that her biomonitoring would not suddenly stop working, and neither the trauma team nor Kang Tao would notice the problem. β
And from the bottom of his heart, Lille is reluctant to kill this girl, if he has a choice.
"So... That's fine, as long as you can. Zhu Shen paused, "Then I want to say that Kangtao's employee benefits are the best, and the gold members of the trauma team will be given when they join the company, and there will be 3 days of annual leave every year." β
V pouted: "It's good that there is a place to hide corpses in the senior executive's office, and you can kill unarmed employees without mind." β
"If you're going to talk about this, Night City kids, we're at least protecting our employees from stray bullets in the streets, but you're different."
"Everyone has to have a gun to scare bastards like you! Freely! You know, freedom! β
Lille had some egg pain.
Night City, the city with the highest crime rate in the United States, is experiencing daily shootings and street fires, killing and injuring countless people.
Kangtao, with the most diligent employees in the world, is far ahead in overwork death cases, and even the kind that the trauma team can't save abounds.
Now people on both sides are trying to prove that their own shortcomings are not shortcomings at all.
Lille interrupted the street kid and the company dog's argument: "V, access her personal link, I'm going to remotely control her basic prosthesis. β
So can Lille do it?
The answer is no.
Basic-level prosthetic techniques do not include modifying prosthetic floppy drives, which directly interfere with the state of the organism.
Unless he suddenly improves his skills in a short period of time.
[Practical Technique: Prosthetic Technique (Proficiency Level)]
[Current mastery progress: 10%]
γQuick mastery of required technology points: 90γ
[The redemption has been completed.] γ
[Current Technology Points: 26]
Spend almost all of his tech points to give the girl a way to live, but Lille didn't hesitate.
If he can do better, he will do better.
On the other hand, V said:
"You're lucky, usually you will kill at this time - my boss asked me to bring you a message, I'm sorry you won't be able to eat supper today, but you shouldn't miss it tomorrow."
The girl's expression changed from frightened to stunned, the invasive procedure worked, hormone levels dropped, and the tiredness of working overtime instantly welled up in her heart.
Until darkness overwhelmed her vision, but she heard that there was still tomorrow.
"Your skills are so good?" Surprised, V put the girl on the ground and walked to the computer.
Lille replied casually, "I just learned it." β
"You're pretty good then--found it, reality warp project, project level... Secret?
Well, enter the password, pass, find the readable file... Found it, it's being transferred. β
"Zhu Shen, I got the information."
Zhu Shen on the other end hurriedly opened the file: "Hmm... The route, I didn't expect her to change it, I have never used this route.
From the West Checkpoint... Damn, she wants to go from Mexico City!
We've got to stop this shipment in the Atlanta moors... Yes, there is... Damn, we're in trouble. β
Zhu Shen's tone became more and more excited, but he calmed down after seeing the most critical information.
Lille also held his forehead.
"What's wrong?" V walked around, looking east and west, and secretly sighed that these company dogs were really rich.
"Looks like I can't rest for a minute, V, look out the window."
Looking out the window, two cars arrived at the entrance of the park.
"You can't say..."
"Yes, that's what we're trying to do, hurry up, we're going to start the interception program now."
"Damn!" V burst out foul language, "It's terrible! β
Without a moment of celebration for the success of the mission, V immediately rushed to a new battlefield again!
......
"Nott, we've found the line, we're ambushing outside the checkpoint, the location has been sent to you, can you arrange an ambush now?"
"Hmm... It's not close, but now?
I can't get there, but in this position, I can help you stop the APD and the network monitor, you can do whatever you want. β
"Deal." Hanging up the phone, Lille said to V, who had just gotten into the car, "There is no support, you have to take out the entire escort team by yourself, and Cai Ping." β
V, who just got in the car, was stunned - for a while, you're going to send me a big job?!
"Are you kidding?"
"Listen to me, this escort team is very low-spec, except for the driver, the security guard only has a shooter, a medical medic and a machine gunner, and two intelligent robots.
According to Zhu Shen, the degree of prosthetics on their bodies will not be very high, the income of Kangtao employees is transparent, and the background of soldiers with such important tasks is clear and verifiable, and it is impossible to have a side job, let alone a strong combat prosthesis.
The equipment on his body is all standard body armor and smart weapons..."
"Stop, stop, do you believe him? He also said that the Kangtao transport trucks are all papier-mΓ’chΓ©! "V was a little angry." If you have a life to earn money, you have to have a life to spend money! β
"I know- I know, but V, don't you want to mess around with Big Brother, make a lot of money, or even become a legend in the afterlife?"
Lille organized the language and looked at V earnestlyβthe role he had played, the legend he had experienced.
"But do you know what a legend is? Being crushed by Adam's hammer like a dead dog and stamped with a stamp is called a legend?
A true legend only needs a basic prosthetic, a weapon in hand, and a fiery faith to pierce the Arasaka Tower, cut the heavy hammer into pieces, and burn the Arasaka Tower.
Think about it, the company dogs scattered like rabbits, the eyes that are evasive when touched, the apex of the Arasaka Tower, the raging flames--
Like the sun! That's legend! β
V froze.
The apex of the Arasaka Tower? Like the sun?
"You're kidding, if there really is such a awesome person... There is no way I don't know, the world can't not know! β
"That's right! What kind of legend is the death at the hands of a cyber monster, look farther, look farther!
You don't even dare to do this fucking job, you might as well find a factory to work like those Atlantans! β
The more Lille spoke, the more energetic he became, and even the smell of hating iron and not steel, that emotion was so strong.
V feels that the person Learle is talking about is her!
So sure, it's like... He'd seen it with his own eyes!
"You're fucking like a shoe boss... Rely on! Drive! β
"That's right! Good luck and get ready to get on the bus! β
Lille stepped on the accelerator and the car sped off the route the Convoy had left.
