Cyberpunk: Legends of Life

Chapter 30 Faraday

Westbrook, Cherry Street.

In the small square in front of the TURGO convenience store, several modified Ford Mustang cars were parked around, and the blasting punk rock music kept clamoring.

Many cyberpunks with all kinds of shiny metal prosthetic bodies are sitting around the three hot food stalls on the square, drinking beer and chatting happily.

The bearded Pila with slender arms and legs nimbly held a plate of beer and performed acrobatics of flying up and down in front of friends and customers.

Dorio threw all the empty wine bottles towards Pila, and they were easily caught by his slender prosthetic arms.

Pila happily showed off her prosthetic arm: "My fingers are amazing! Don't you think?"

Dorio smiled helplessly: "Now everyone knows what you did with your fingers at night."

After speaking, he raised his hand and made two gestures in the air, causing everyone around him to laugh maliciously.

This made Pila seem even happier and prouder, picked up the beer bottle and wiped it, and said boldly:

"You're right, I can do this all day long!"

Detonated the audience again, and everyone around laughed and applauded happily.

Team hacker Qiwei was still tall and tall in a red leather jacket, with a cigarette dangling from under her mask, sitting at the table and typing away at her notebook.

Mann, who was sitting at the front of the car, looked at everything in front of him with a heavy expression.

Tomorrow is the day to go to the Maelstrom Gang to complete the transaction, and he has asked Qi Wei to deliberately leak the transaction information on the black market network.

And Qi Wei also successfully captured the intrusion and deciphering records from Arasaka Company, confirming that someone in Arasaka already knew about it. As for how Arasaka will act, it depends on Tang Yu's arrangement.

It's just that Mann is still waiting for someone, a special someone.

Whether the prosthetic body of the military-grade Sianweistan can be installed in the end depends on the entry of two major companies, Arasaka and Military Technology.

Just as Mann was thinking about it, his eyes were attracted by a long wine red limousine slowly parked in the square.

The door is open.

The white-haired man in a burgundy suit walked down with a proud expression. His right eye was equipped with a special composite triple electronic prosthetic eye. He scanned all the people in the square, and finally looked at Mann who was sitting in the front of the car.

Mann raised his head and looked at each other. The other person was the person he was waiting for, a middleman who was backed by military technology.

Faraday.

Even though he has cooperated with him many times, Mann still does not have the slightest trust in Faraday. There is one and only reason for his cooperation with Faraday, that is, he pays more.

It is very difficult to find a trustworthy and wealthy middleman in Night City. The ability, quality and credit quality of middlemen are uneven, so the standard for measuring middlemen is often remuneration.

And Faraday is the kind of middleman with strong strength and high remuneration in this area. His backing of military technology companies makes him worthy of the competition of any other middlemen.

Mann jumped off the front of the car and walked up to Faraday, this time he took the initiative to ask Faraday, so he took the initiative to say: "I have something important to talk to you about."

Faraday put one hand in his trouser pocket and showed displeasure. In Night City, it is usually the middleman who arranges for cyberpunk to survive. In other words, the middleman is the benefactor of cyberpunk and has a natural status advantage.

"You'd better have important information."

Faraday looked at Mann proudly. He never had any respect for cyberpunks who worked part-time. If Mann was not a frequent partner, he would not have made a special trip at all. The reason why he came this time is It's all because Mann told him that intelligence and military technology are closely related.

"boarding."

Faraday took Mann back into the car and planned to complete the intelligence transaction in the car.

After the two got into the car, the car started.

Faraday was suspicious. He definitely had a lot of dealings with military technology companies. Those company dogs were very arrogant. A cyberpunk like Mann had no chance to contact them. The only possibility was that Mann obtained the He was the first to speak to break the silence.

"Tell me, let me hear how much your information is worth."

Mann knew that Faraday's methods were sinister and cruel, but he had never been ambiguous about the payment of rewards, so he directly showed his cards:
"Cybercrazy James' military-grade Swan Westin in my possession."

Hearing this, Faraday, who was originally expressionless, suddenly frowned. He had already known about the disappearance of the prosthetic body, but he didn't expect it to fall into Mann's hands. But it's not difficult to think about the whole process. It was Cyberpunk who stole the prosthetic body of cyber lunatic James through private channels in order to become stronger, but Military Technology had no plans to take it back at all, so he didn't continue to pay attention to this matter.

Faraday: "It looks like you didn't put it on. If you want to sell this prosthetic body to military technology through me, I don't think it is necessary."

Mann shook his head and said, "I'm not going to sell you a prosthetic body, but I want to sell you information, information about a transaction."

Faraday was rather disdainful: "Since you haven't installed it yet, I'll send you an information first. This prosthetic body is currently in the human experiment stage, and it is not a good thing to install it."

Mann: "Because this prosthetic body is in the experimental stage, Arasaka would want to get it, or to be precise, get its human experiment data."

Faraday almost immediately thought of the core of this matter. Military Technology has no plans to recycle this prosthetic body for the time being, but it does not mean that Arasaka Company does not want to.

He sat up straight, turned his right triple prosthetic eye to stare at Mann and asked, "You mean Arasaka Company wants this prosthetic body, so why don't you sell it to them?"

Mann: "Make a deal with Arasaka without a middleman? I still want to live a few more years. You have a background in military technology, so you should understand the importance of this matter. I will be in Watson's old industrial area at nine o'clock tomorrow night At that time, there will definitely be special agents from Arasaka to snatch this prosthetic body, I hope you can persuade Military Technology to do it."

Faraday stared at Mann coldly, trying to distinguish the truth and falsehood of his words, and said after a moment of silence.

"It turns out that you want to use this game to wash this prosthetic body, so as not to be targeted by the company like James, and finally be forced to become a cyber lunatic."

"Mann, I know you well. You are absolutely incapable of doing this game. It seems that you have found a new middleman or gained new support."

Mann looked at Faraday's face full of confidence and grasped everything. He believed that even if he was killed, he would never have thought that the person he was cooperating with was the senior management of Arasaka Company. It would definitely be a wonderful show to cooperate with the people of Arasaka Company to pit the people of Arasaka Company.

Mann neither denied nor admitted that, after all, he and Tang Yu only cooperated once and did not belong to a middleman or a new channel.

"This is the information I want to talk about. It depends on your opinion whether to cooperate to ambush Arasaka or to be snatched by them in the end. I need this game to cleanse the prosthetic body, and you need this game to tell Military technology proves value."

After thinking for a moment, Faraday realized that there are indeed some doubts about this transaction, but the risks are all within control, not to mention that, as Mann said, he needs to prove his value to military technology, and that is to deal with Arasaka.

"I think your information is good."

After speaking, transfer [-] euros directly to Mann's electronic account.

"This is a deposit, and if the plan succeeds later, I will pay the rest."

Faraday regained his aloof attitude, parked the car back in the square, and let Mann get out of the car.

He picked up the red wine on the car wine cabinet and shook it, then dialed the military technology contact
