Cyberpunk: 2075

"Mrs. Wells, here we come!"

"Welcome, Carl, and Oliver, you haven't been here for a while."

"Just a few days."

Carrying thawed pork and a bunch of drinks, Carl responded to Mrs. Wells's words and entered Jack's house.

They have been to the Wild Wolf Bar many times, but this is indeed their first time here and they have never seen Jack’s house. “Why are you the only one, where is Jack?”

Mrs. Wells watched Carl and Oliver walk in, but did not see her son.

"He went to pick someone up and will be there soon.

"Is anyone else coming?"

Mrs. Wells looked at the smiles of the two people. After a moment of confusion, she no longer cared. Rather than caring about the guests who had not yet arrived, her more important responsibility now was to entertain the two children.

"Sit down for a while. The French fries will be ready soon. Do you want anything to drink?"

"We brought our own drinks today."

"Okay, if there's not enough, just say so.'

Mrs. Wells said this and walked into the kitchen again. The fries were still frying, so she had to keep an eye on it.

Sitting down on the sofa on the first floor, Oliver looked at the surrounding decorations and said to Carl: "I heard from Jack that he is going to move to the garage recently. If you ask me, the garage is not as cozy as home. ”

"Maybe he wanted to take care of his car closer."

Karl also looked at this ordinary, but quite warm home, but he did not sit down like Oliver, but walked to the stairs leading to the second floor in the first-floor room.

"Is this where Jack comes down every day when he gets up? I quite like the design of the stairs connecting the first and second floors in the room."

"After you get used to living in an apartment building, you will definitely feel like this."

Oliver rubbed the beard on his chin with his right hand and said: "But with our current economic conditions, we can afford to live in a high-rise suite with a courtyard. A gnasher with a swimming pool should also be able to afford it, but the price may be slightly higher." A bit more expensive.”

"for example?"

"For example, here in Heywood, I have seen a property before, a valley villa, a high-rise building, and a duplex villa.

A house occupies two floors, and the rent is 40,000 euros a month. The place is large enough to accommodate a row of people (30 people) without feeling crowded. "

"Forty thousand euros a month."

Listening to this price, Karl thought about the current rent of a super skyscraper of 1,000 euros a month, and felt that the gap was too big.

"This month is enough for us to pay rent for forty months and more than three years."

"So it's just gritting your teeth."

Oliver counted the days with his fingers: "Calculating the rent we have to pay this month, it's almost time. How about we find a place to rent together and call Jack over. It's better to live in the garage than to live together. If the three of us can afford it, it should be cheaper." , a bigger place is wider, right?”

"No need, we have just made a name for ourselves, so don't think about that kind of luxury."

Karl didn't have any objections to his apartment. Although overall it was a bit smaller and more ordinary than the luxury villa suites Oliver mentioned, the residents could still adapt to it.

Karl said: "Wait until you finish a big order next time and then think about changing it. Aren't you and Jack going to spend money on prosthetic body modification? I don't have any objection to asking me for funding." "

"No need."

The luxurious suite in his mind disappeared in an instant. Instead of enjoying it, Oliver valued the prosthetic body that could strengthen the team more.

"Sian Westan, that's my favorite."

"It's not long. It's not long before the adaptation period and contact time that Lao Wei mentioned, and we don't know what kind of prosthetics Lao Wei can give us by then."

"I don't have high requirements, just someone from Zeta Technology."

Zeta Technologies.

Listening to Oliver's words, Carl responded to what he had read about Zeta Technology's Sean Westan.

Zeta Technology's Sianwistan is a rare one among the Sianwistans, and it can be regarded as a mass-oriented type. The Sianwistan designed by Zeta Technology adheres to the idea of ​​minimalism in popular models, which means that it does not add some messy functions. , if you only count the burden that the now popular Zeta model has to bear, it may be the lightest one.

"Are you so unsure of yourself? You came to Zeta Technology?"

"I don't want to become a cyberpsycho."

"bite.

In the sound of Carl and Oliver's words, the doorbell rang. Oliver stood up, walked to the door and looked at the surveillance camera, then opened the door and opened his arms.

"Lao Wei, you are finally here, and we are still talking about you."

"We're talking about prosthetics again."

Victor was obviously very experienced, and after hugging Oliver nonchalantly, he looked at Karl: "You can come to my clinic tomorrow. I think the shipment order has arrived."

"So fast? Lao Wei, didn't you mean the adaptation period?"

Karl was a little surprised.

"I'm just going to make a selection tomorrow. It's not a direct installation. I have to look at the goods...and after seeing the goods,

Even if I don't let you install it, can you bear it? The adaptation period will still take two or three days, but you are all in good health. Let me take a look after it is installed. There is no particularly serious rejection reaction. If

Just pay attention. "

Listening to Victor's words, Oliver beamed with joy:

"Then you must eat well today, Victor, or you will have no strength for the surgery."

"Don't eat too much, kid, or the knife will shake when you have the surgery."

"I will be hungry again tomorrow after digesting what I eat tonight. It's impossible."

"I don't have a good stomach like you."

Victor said, and saw Mrs. Wells who saw a new guest sticking her head out of the kitchen, and greeted her.

Mrs. Wells and Victor have known each other for a long time because of Jack, and the two are not strangers.

"Didn't Jack come with you?"

Mrs. Wells looked at Old Victor who came in alone with some doubts. When she saw Victor,

she thought that the guest Jack was going to pick up was Victor, but she didn't expect that she still didn't see her son.

"Jack, he's behind, coming soon."

Victor looked at Mrs. Wells and smiled a smile that Mrs. Wells didn't quite understand.

As if to verify Victor's words, Jack appeared at the door just after he finished speaking, and the person who appeared with him was...

Mrs. Wells was stunned when she saw the girl who was a little nervous, holding what should be a door-to-door gift in her hand and smiling at her.

She didn't expect that the guest Jack wanted to meet in person was her.

Thinking of the mysterious expressions of Carl and Oliver before entering the door, and looking at Victor's current smile, Mrs. Wells finally looked at her sons.

Jack's eyes now were not looking at her mother, but at the girl next to him with a smile and encouragement.

So, it was like this...:

Mrs. Wells looked at the girl who was nervous but smiled like the boy next to her.

Mrs. Wells smiled, she went back to the kitchen, brought out the fried French fries, and then greeted the new "guest".

"Welcome Misty, you're just in time."
