Cyberpunk: 2075

After closing the door and signaling Kenichi Shiro to come in for a chat, Carl sat on the sofa, facing Kenichi Shiro's scrutiny. After being silent for almost two minutes, Carl, who really couldn't stand Kenichi Shiro's scrutiny, took the initiative to speak first. :

"So, Mr. Kenichi Shiro, why did you come to me at this time? I don't think I know your identity yet?"

"I'm a bodyguard."

Kenichi Shiro's words were quite simple and clear, but this level of information was obviously not enough to satisfy Karl.

"Bodyguard, so Mr. Kenichi Shiro, why don't you protect your employer?"

Karl smiled: "I remember that I didn't call for any security services. Maybe you are planning to do business for free, but forget it. These days, free things are the most expensive."

Faced with Karl's obviously provocative words, Kenichi Shiro chose to respond with silence. He just stared at Karl calmly, but it made Karl feel more and more uncomfortable.

What Carl had to admit was that he had a strange feeling. If I wanted to use an adjective to describe that feeling, it would be threatening.

He sensed the danger to his life from the calm Kenichi Shiro in front of him.

This guy is not a simple character, he is very strong.

Whether it was the posture he sat there or the self-light he glanced at, Karl felt threatened. Even some of his fatal parts, such as his temples and heart, felt phantom pain under the pressure of this danger. .

When this guy looked at himself, his eyes instantly focused on several relatively loose and fatal parts of his body. ’

It was definitely uncomfortable to be looked at like this. At least Karl wasn't used to it, so after seeing Kenichi Shiro not replying, he made a waving gesture.

"I think I'm generous enough to welcome you in. If there's nothing else, Mr. Kenichi Shiro, you'd better not disturb my sleep."

"You're good at what you do."

Faced with Karl's words indicating that he had nothing to do and leave early, Kenichi Shiro had no intention of responding.

He was just talking to himself and had to praise Karl's abilities.

"Thank you so much for telling me this kind of thing."

Karl was a little unsure of what this man was here for, but he couldn't feel any murderous intent from this man, so he still maintained the sense of laughter and answered: "So, what's the matter with you? "

"I brought a job."

Kenichi Shiro finally got down to business. He took out a paper document from the lining of his suit and placed it on the glass coffee table in the middle of the sofa.

"You have the qualifications to accept this."

"Work?"

So, the review just now was to judge your own strength?

Karl would not refuse commissioned work, but... :

"I have to take a look first, okay?"

"The treatment will satisfy you."

"treatment?"

Entrust, why should we talk about treatment?

Karl picked up the paper document and after reading it carefully, he found that it was not a commission, and it was really closely related to the treatment.

"Employee entry salary schedule?"

Karl looked at the company at the top of the paper document and found that the place where he was going to join was called 'Danger Girl'.

Carl had heard of Danger Girls.

[Danger Girl]: A detective agency responsible for private investigation, bodyguards and security services. It is headquartered in Night City. The founder is Michiko Arasaka. This company is famous for its detective girls equipped with cat-ear prosthetics who are responsible for handling cases. Although there has been some decline in detective affairs in recent years, it still squeezes out the business of most of its peers.

The dovish leader of the Arasaka family, the detective agency privately run by Michiko Arasaka, came to me in the middle of the night and extended an invitation to join?

Without saying anything in a hurry, Karl took a detailed look at the treatment and other aspects, and roughly understood the treatment he would receive if he joined "Danger Girl".

Because his gender identity is male, he will not become a beautiful girl detective with prosthetic cat ears.

The main business he is responsible for is bodyguards and security. Once he signs a contract every month, the benefits he can get are:

You can enjoy discounts on popular prosthetics on the market.... This is generally available to you when you go to Lao Wei Na. There is no internal product mentioned on it. It is estimated that it is at most the same level as the Arasaka 3 model I am currently using. Although It's high-end enough, but it can't keep up with where I am now.

The remuneration received is distributed according to the employer's satisfaction for completing the task, which can reach a maximum of 60%.

This is average. You can get 100% for accepting tasks by yourself, but if you join a company, you can only get 60% at most.

The task only needs to be notified and arrived at the critical moment. There is no need to be stationed at ordinary times. If the notification is not in place, it will be regarded as the responsibility of the office.

Something is wrong. I take the initiative to take on the task, and the bodyguard only needs to arrive at the critical moment. It feels like there is a backup plan and a key hand. Is this still a normal bodyguard recruitment?

Guaranteed salary...

Three hundred thousand euros a month?

Three hundred thousand euros, that is to say, one year...

Three million six hundred thousand.

If you add in some of his so-called mission remuneration, maybe an annual salary of four or five million is not impossible?

This salary is not comparable to that of ordinary middle-level managers in the company, but it is given to a bodyguard?

With his own abilities, Karl thought he was still qualified to receive this salary, but it was a bit surprising that the company came to offer it.

This is not a large company such as Arasaka or Military Technology, it is just a detective agency. Such an offer can be compared to the high salary of middle-level personnel in large companies. It really can't help but make Karl feel surprised and doubtful at the same time.

"Why?"

Karl stared at Kenichi Shiro: "Why do you want me to join the job? I can see the look in your eyes when you came in. The emotion in your eyes shows obvious rejection and scrutiny. There is an invitation from the detective agency to invite me to join." , I shouldn’t let someone who is repulsive towards me send it here.

,

"Until now, I don't agree with it, but you are indeed qualified."

The attitude shown by Kenichi Shiro was to talk things over: "You are among the top twenty people I have ever met."

‘Top twenty? ’

I don’t know whether this was an underestimation or an overestimation, but Karl tasted a different meaning.

"In that case, why don't you go to those who are ahead of me in your heart, but come to me?"

Facing Karl's confusion, Kenichi Shiro stared at him for a few more minutes, and when Karl felt a little uncomfortable, he spoke in a somewhat dull tone.

"Because you are the person that the lady trusts, and you have protected her in the past."

"I once protected her...

The firm run by Michiko Arasaka is overly generous, with conditions like a backup at critical moments, and a protected young lady...

If connected.

Karl looked over and over again at the employee entry salary table without any restrictive terms, and after a moment of silence.

"You don't need to be stationed for a long time, just arrive at the critical moment, right?"

"Normally, you can't be here either."

When Kenichi Shiro showed some emotional fluctuations and some dangerous words, Karl patted the paper indifferently.

"I feel like we can talk more about the details in the onboarding details."

Carl smiled.

"In the office, you don't mind part-time jobs, right?
