Cyberpunk: 2075

"I remember the priest's mission was to ask us to go to Japan Street and kill someone, right?"

Oliver said as he looked at Villefort as he drove towards Japan Street.

"It's a good idea."

Jack flipped through the attached message sent by the priest: "The target's name is Sato Kazuo. He is a member of the Tiger Claw Gang. I don't know where he is in Japan Street. If you see him later, you can kill him along the way."

"Let's focus on the task in front of us first."

Karl said: "It is still impossible to accurately determine whether Tanaka Katsuo is the son of our target. If we attack him directly, it may attract unnecessary attention from Arasaka Academy. I will create chaos later and I will invade the driver's head. After searching for enough information, I used memory erasure to erase his memory of being invaded by me."

"The drivers and bodyguards of this kind of company, even if they die or disappear in the chaos, they will not be looked down upon by the upper-level company dogs, right? Carl, do you want to be so meticulous and troublesome?'

Oliver drove the car and glanced at Karl: "Is it possible that you still pity the company dog?"

"There are two points. One is to kill him directly and make him disappear, which may arouse unnecessary vigilance of the target. Compared with just making him faint in the chaos and erasing the memory, it is safer. After all, a low-level driver has no one. Will go out of his way to care about his senses in a coma;

The second point is that he didn’t provoke me. I have some principles. He is not the main target and he didn’t provoke me.

Just because he was a company dog, I could easily shoot him. Then there is no difference between me and a company dog. There is no need to divide people based on their status. "

Listening to Karl's words, Jack understood why he had to check their past experiences when solving scavengers: "No wonder you had to check the criminal history of every scavenger you solved."

"No, you're wrong about that Jack."

Karl watched the vehicle in front of him slow down and barely adjusted his body shape on the narrow seat: ‘

Scavenger, is different. "

"You just said it's unnecessary to divide people based on their status."

"Yes, provided that he didn't offend me, and the scavenger offended me just because of his status."

"You have some personal principles."

"You can call him Carl's code of conduct. Holding a grudge is equally important as remembering a favor. Both are indispensable. Why, Mr. Jack Wills, do you have any special advice?"

"Don't worry about this weird Karl, what can I say?"

Jack showed a big bright smile: "I would rather say, I feel like every word you say touches my heart. It makes me feel so damn comfortable."

"This feels like it can be upgraded to team rules."

Oliver drove Quartz to the side of the road: "But now, gentlemen, you can all get out of the car and get to the place."

"It's like telling you not to get out of the car, you rubbish driver, and it's making my body hurt. Can't you turn slower?"

"Don't complain. If you're unhappy, drive by yourself next time. And don't say such misleading words. Didn't you almost hit your head on the windshield three times? If you don't wear your seat belt, what can I do?"

"Just to be safe, run fast."

Karl said this, and walked out of the car wearing a casual black jacket. He moved a little to squeeze out his sore body. After confirming that his gun was worn all night long, Karl stared at Weller parked in the distance. Behind the bar at Forte:

"The company kids from Arasaka Academy followed the driver to the bar on Japan Street in Westbrook District after class. It seems that we will know some little secrets."

[Westbrook District]: The most livable and enjoyable district in Night City. As long as you have money, you can spend as much as you want here. It can satisfy almost all the enjoyment you need.

NCPD threat level evaluation: extremely low.

[Japanese Street]: The entertainment center of Night City. The main residents are Japanese. It is the most popular place for tourists in Night City. The Genting Club among them can bring unexpected surprises to people.

Looking at Tanaka Katsuo and the driver Maxim who walked into the bar, Oliver nodded slightly to Karl and walked towards the bar.

After all, Karl's face is already famous in the Arasaka Company in Night City. It is better for him to do this kind of chaos.

"Watch the car, Carl."

Jack held a pistol and followed Oliver, but he deliberately controlled the distance between him and Oliver and did not walk into the bar with Oliver in tandem.

If no one can stir up trouble and cause chaos in the bar later, Jack will have to act out a scene with Oliver.

Watching the two companions walk into the bar, Karl, who was in communication with them, leaned against the quartz car door. There are no cameras around the area where the bar is located. This may have been designed for the privacy of bar guests. At this time, it saves Karl the trouble of covering his face.

‘I’ll have to buy a jammer from Lao Wei later so that the camera can’t capture my face. Otherwise, I’ll always have to be wary of the cameras around me, which will be really troublesome. ’

Some prosthetics, such as the Qilushi optical prosthetic eyes installed by Oliver, have the function of automatically blocking cameras. In terms of actions, Oliver is more relaxed and simple than Carl.

Karl took out the all-nighter and checked it. After making sure there was nothing wrong, Oliver's communication came.

Oliver: We have arrived at the bar. Katsuo Tanaka, led by a bartender, went to the private room, and the driver stayed at the bar to drink.

Carl: The driver's name is Maxim. I have already found out his identity. Yes, there are some interesting personal information, such as he likes to gamble with boxing. How is the situation in the store?

Jack: There are many people from the Tiger Claw Gang, as well as ordinary customers. If you want to cause trouble, it's easy.

Carl: Just have someone to be the target of trouble. Don't rush to do it. Order something to drink for a while. Don't get drunk. Let me see what Katsuo Tanaka, a student of Arasaka Academy, is doing in this bar.

Carl connected to the nearby Night City regional network, and then connected to the hidden camera in the private room of the bar.

As expected, this kind of bar with no cameras installed outside and seems to respect the privacy of customers must have hidden cameras installed in key places.

After accessing, Carl looked at what Tanaka Katsuo was doing in the private room, and then he found that Tanaka Katsuo had actually accessed the learning chip under the guidance of a bartender... :

Going to the bar to learn...:: What the hell?

Did I see it wrong, or was there something wrong with me?

Carl was surprised and flipped through the information records in the bar, and then he understood the real purpose of this bar.

This place is actually a special place in the Arasaka Academy Academic Affairs Office that provides internal transactions.

What are you doing in the bar?

To learn.

It's ridiculous.

Even if classmates see this, they will simply think that Tanaka Katsuo went to the bar to be cool, but in fact, under the cover of his going to the bar, he was secretly involuntarily in the private room.

To prevent other company kids from seeing him involuntarily, right, to show the illusion that he is addicted to the bar?

As for... The atmosphere of Arasaka Academy is too weird.
