Biotechnology Building.

Regional Director of Technology & Development, Joanne Coch, is debriefing in trepidation.

"There was a major accident in the Project Nightingale project, and Project Manager Emilia Morton instructed Diana Cuno, the head of the Special Operations Department, to illegally distribute γ-rabies samples in the experimental area for the purpose of cleaning up a batch of near-term drugs and vaccines for the company."

"After Project Nightingale subjects were infected with γ-rabies, an unknowable variation in the DNA decay model led to a large number of deaths."

"As soon as the incident occurred, I instructed Sleeper Agent #1919 to clean up and erase key parts of the leaked information, as well as to fire Emilia Morton in accordance with company procedures."

"During this operation, Agent #1919 died in the line of duty, but the evidence was cleared."

"Emilia Morton contacted reporter Manuel Mendoza to meet at the Civic Center Plaza station, and it happened that another reporter, Zola Barnes, who was working on the investigation of Brad Norwood, appeared on the subway."

"Brad Norwood is a member of parliament for military technology support that we work with, and Zola Barnes may have access to Project Nightingale."

"Congressman Norwood took the subway station blockade contract from the NCPD and handed it over to Mark Carroll of Military Technology."

"Mark Carroll has reached an agreement with us to simultaneously clean up the above targets."

"However. Mark Carroll was attacked by terrorists while he was carrying out the clean-up. ”

"Targets of cleanup: Manuel Mendoza, Zola Barnes, Emilia Morton, Brandon Murphy's fate unknown."

"In view of the above situation, I believe that the risk of leakage of company secrets is extremely high, and I apply for an increase in the security level."

Joanne Coch lowered her head after finishing speaking, and she didn't dare to breathe.

The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and sneered:

"So, after such a big battle, you killed Diana Kuno."

"Dr. Koch, the company is skeptical of your ability to do your job."

"There's no way the company can stop because of this kind of thing, and the security level is now the highest level."

"The customer is very dissatisfied with us, invested so much money, did not see the results, and was involved in such a big trouble."

"In the end, the Rangers made a fuss at Hywood that upset the rest of the company and the NCPD, which made it difficult for us to do that."

"You go home now and reflect for a few days - don't stay in the company yet."

Kochi's hands and feet were cold.

Go home and reflect?

After leaving the company, where is it still safe?!

What if those wanderers rush to the door?!

"But me"

If something happened to the company, why should she be allowed to go home?

Unless someone on the other side bites them to death, these wanderers are coming at her.

That being the case, companies really don't need to be too much of a security guard – just get the trouble out of the way.

"Dr. Koch." The voice on the other end of the line remained flat, but it made Kochi feel deafening.

She held her breath and waited for the person across from her to finish.

"That's all."

Click.

The phone hangs up.

Kochi sat slumped on the couch, his face glazed.

She was crazy, with a hideous face, and dialed the phone to go out.

Correspondence: Mark Carroll.

Tick Tick --

Joanne Cocchi: "Carol, what the hell are you going to do!" ”

Mark Carroll: "What's the use of saying this now?" Just because of your, Lao Tzu has been demoted three levels in a row! ”

Mark Carroll: "I shouldn't have left you alone, shit." ”

Joanne Coczy: "So what now?" Do you still have anyone on hand, I can go hide with you for a few days."

Mark Carroll: ", find your own place." ”

Mark Carroll: "Damn, because of you, I'm going to watch the Mackinaw pickup right now - do you know how many of these cars there are in town?!" ”

Joanne Coczy: "Please! I really don't have anywhere to go! ”

Mark Carroll: "Well, for the sake of our years of working together -- either to ask you to come over, or to tell you about my debriefing at the Civic Center. ”

Mark Carroll: "It's not big or small, but in the end, there was a unity. ”

Let's put it mildly, this time the matter is actually semi-business.

The real problem started with Coch, and then Congressman Norwood wanted to take out a reporter who was asking questions.

As a result, it turned into a dispatch of troops to fulfill the NCPD's municipal security contract - this is the justification for this operation.

For such a blockade, the strength of two platoons is already enough, and it is just a blockade mission.

The bad is the bad, more than thirty people died - this is also where the big thing happened, the military technology was killed in the center of the city by a platoon.

Mark Carroll: "My superiors said at the meeting that they were going to issue a citywide wanted warrant -- and guess what? No one has an opinion. ”

Joanne Cocci: "Arasaka is okay with that?" ”

Mark Carroll: "I don't have any opinion at all – you see, either there's no one behind it, or they've run away." ”

Mark Carroll: "The NCPD has symbolically sent out the Terrorist Mobile Unit to patrol -- just for the next two days, the former company troops will continue to patrol, and no one has a problem. ”

Mark Carroll: "So you find your own place to stay and arrange for the plane to run away." ”

Reading between the lines, Carroll was saying that the madman was gone.

After getting what they wanted and running away, naturally no one would talk too much when ventilating.

No one will think that the truth is that there is no support behind the gang - they can hack the Beamon armored car in a short time, and they use controlled cats and sniper rifles, no matter how you think about it, someone is doing something.

However, this news is not good news for Kochi, but it has only given her a deeper understanding of her situation.

As the regional director of biotechnology technology and development, at this moment, no one cares whether she lives or dies - she has to rely on herself.

But in any case, since the Civic Center is still patrolled by the military department and the Terrorist Mobile Team, she is still safe during this time.

"Damn, damn, damn!"

Kochi grabbed his hair and muttered to himself frantically.

"Are you sure this thing can handle the weight of both of us?"

"Nonsense, try it quickly."

Due to physical reasons, Lille can only hang on to Jack - the two of them are attached back to back with a magnetic strap device.

It may seem strange, but it's a reluctant move - it's a good thing that Lille can free up his hands to control the jammer.

By this time, Jack and V were equipped with magnetic gloves, which relied on neural links to access the prosthetic system.

V had already climbed up with his gloves on—

In her visual system, a column of information has been added:

[Current surface friction coefficient: 1.42]

[The biological electrostatic system is working normally, and the current normal force of a single module: 9100N]

[Sum normal force projection. 】

[Aggregate friction projection. 】

【Alcohol 2 fuel consumption rate】

【Alcohol 2 fuel combustion efficiency】

【Alcohol 2 remaining】

Stick your V against the wall and raise one arm, still firmly anchored to the wall.

She looked at the glove with curiosity, its surface moving and adjusting its mode of operation.

"I'll go. This thing is awesome, but what does this big bunch of pops mean? ”

Lille replied in the communication channel, "Oh, forgot, it's developer mode. ”

After Lille finished speaking, there were only a few lines left in the visual window of V:

[Adsorption state: stable and with spare force]

[Alcohol 2 fuel remaining: 99%]

The font is still green, and it turns a lot yellow as V lifts one palm and one leg.

Very concise and easy to understand.

"Not bad. You two hurry up! ”

V excitedly moved quickly across the wall, crawling towards the top of the Delamain Enterprise—

Jack also moved quickly, although much slower because he was carrying Lille, but very steady.

The Delamain headquarters building isn't too tall, but it's also a high-rise building --

Little by little, the three of them watched the street become smaller and narrower, and in their field of vision, the tall buildings that once blocked their view were getting shorter and lower.

Eventually, the highest point of the Delamain enterprise was reached.

From here, look out at the huge building of the company square, and there is no longer any obstruction.

It's an experience like you've never had before.

Climbing up a tall building and taking the elevator to your apartment and looking at the city through the glass are two different experiences.

The wind blows in their faces.

Lille's voice rang out in the communication channel "Alright, now, test the last item--"

Spider silk flies.

V looked at the silk launcher on his wrist, then at Jack and Lille.

"Then give it a try"

Whew--

Thin white spider silk shot out and stuck to the tall building not far away.

V grabbed the thread and took a deep breath.

Then take a leap!

The feeling of weightlessness stimulated V's nerves, and the whole world slowed down--

"芜~~~"

The tensile strength of the spider silk withstood the weight of V, and the whole person made a pendulum movement and swung towards another building!

V looked at the wall getting closer and closer, and his eyes instantly widened!

"Don't be stupid!"

Lille's voice rang out, Kronchikov activated, and V made a lying position and slammed into the wall.

The gloves and shoe covers were equipped with modified recoil-controlled shock absorbers, but Rao was so unprepared that the unprepared V was still shocked hard.

When V reacted, she was in the air dozens of meters high, and crossed a distance of more than ten meters, she suddenly became excited:

"I'll go! What a awesome!! ”

Looking at the V in the other building, Lille breathed a sigh of relief, and then patted Jack on the shoulder.

Jack scratched his head with envy and fear.

"Are you sure this thread can hold the weight of the two of us?"

"I'm sure - you can pull the train, but you have to be careful not to hit the wall and be stupid.

You don't have a neuro-accelerated prosthesis, we can slow it down. ”

Jack nodded, shot out the spider silk, and then took a deep breath as well.

Then, take a leap!

Jumping out of the edge of the building, the colorful streets of Night City appeared below the two of them-

Jack and Lille's hearts leaked a beat at the same time--

"What the !!"

Yes, the author's reward plus more points is 10,000 starting coins
