Cyberpunk: 2075

"19:50 on December 24, 2075."

Karl looked at the time on his phone, then raised his head and looked at Night City under the darkness.

The tall buildings stood tall, and the light projected onto him from top to bottom, making his eyes filled with brilliance.

It was still a day when I couldn’t see the sky clearly.

"Christmas Eve."

Reciting the name of tonight's Western scene, Karl looked at the Spanish restaurant not far away. Blanca sent a message saying that she had booked the entire restaurant.

“A single commission of 40,000 euros.

Thinking in his mind, Karl actually knew the meaning of the meeting between men and women on Christmas Eve.

‘It’s romantic. ’

Not too concerned.

What exactly Blanca wants to do becomes clear after the meeting.

Now instead of thinking about random things, why not look forward to the food in the Spanish restaurant.

Speaking of which, since Blanca has booked the entire restaurant, does that mean that the food can be eaten freely? V, Oliver, and Jack are all still busy repairing cars in the bad land. It has been three days. Since the sand monsters are working so hard, I wonder if I can order more tonight, pack some to take away, and send them to Badlands. The food in this Spanish restaurant is real and delicious.

Thinking about it, Karl came to the Spanish restaurant that he had made an appointment with and he occasionally came to. At the door,

There are already people waiting.

They were several military technicians wearing dark gray jumpsuits.

Karl's eyes swept over their black helmets, torsos, belts and boots one by one, and saw the protection under the clothes.

Bulletproof vests, and they are far more powerful than those available on the market.

Professional staff, but low status.

Military Technology is exactly the opposite of Arasaka in terms of clothing. The lower-level personnel in Arasaka can wear various styles of clothes, but the senior staff can only wear black and red suits that are so overall that they are almost indifferent according to Saburo Arasaka's preferences. However, Military Technology People at the bottom are very demanding in their clothing, but people at the top are free to dress according to their personal clothing preferences. Therefore, the status of people in two companies can often be seen based on their clothing.

Although it is not 100% accurate to infer status from clothing, the few people in front of me 2

Carl noticed the looks they were giving him.

It was a look that was slightly flattering and unconsciously frightening.

The body is shaking slightly.

The people under Blanca are not elite.

In this regard, Karl has to praise the people of Arasaka. In terms of personnel quality, Arasaka is still professional.

When Karl went to see Haruko the day before yesterday, none of the Arasaka personnel guarding the manor were trembling.

But this may be because Haruko’s protection is not on the same level as Blanca’s protection?

The evaluation in his mind was over, and Karl had already made a judgment.

"Four people, if solved, should use a single molecular line and one second.'

Pretty strong.

"Is Blanca already in there?"

Karl asked, and the four people looked at each other. Finally, under the eyes of his companions, the youngest-looking man had to stand up: "Yes, Minister Blanca is inside, please Mr. KK You do a necessary check.”

minister?

Has Blanca been promoted to minister in military technology?

Although I don’t know if the promotion procedures for military technology and Arasaka are the same, but based on the position,

She used to be at the section chief level like Tanaka from Arasaka?

But think about it, although she was stabbed in the back by her subordinates, and no one under her subordinates could be trusted. She looked very depressed, and had to find herself, who was still relatively unknown at the time, but she did betray the entire military technology in the night. The city's transportation line, without some status, really can't do such a thing.

Even selling is based on value and status.

But now I just look average.

Counting the people who should be there at the back, even if there are only four people, Blanca will only have eight military technology personnel for security during this trip.

Eight characters of this level.

They might be able to capture it by handing it to Mann's team.

If put in some kind of fantasy story, then Blanca used to be a section chief and successfully broke through to the position of minister.

Now he is a newly promoted minister, and he is not much better than the section chief in terms of level.

It's a pity that this is not a fantasy realm. If the status is not high, there are no outstanding subordinates.

Carl was allowed to enter the Spanish restaurant after the military technology personnel used prosthetic eyes to conduct a scan and verify it, confirming that Carl was indeed Carl and himself.

When Carl entered this small Spanish restaurant, Blanca was already inside.

Her dress today is different from before. Karl has seen Blanca many times, both in company dog ​​costumes and in ordinary clothes, but never once was she dressed like she is now...,

"Is this an Andalusian dress?"

Karl looked at Blanca's half-length red long-tailed skirt, and scanned the skirt with multiple layers of ruffles, recognizing what it was.

"Or is it called a flamenco dress?"

When this kind of long skirt, which symbolizes flamenco dance in Spanish culture, is dancing, the heavy skirt with wrinkles at the tail will spread out and fly with the rotation of the dancer, looking like a The flame seemed to be in full bloom.

"Do you recognize this dress?"

Blanca was a little surprised by Carl's knowledge.

"I learned about Spanish traditional costumes when I watched flamenco dance before."

Carl sat down opposite Blanca: "But the skirt is too long to the ankles and too heavy. It's hard to run away if something happens."

Listening to Carl's words, Blanca was silent for a while. She deliberately wore the clothes of her hometown to meet him, and he just said that it was hard to run away?

"Women come out wearing beautiful clothes, you need compliments."

Blanca suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart and said so to Carl.

"I will not fail to compliment."

Carl smiled at Blanca: "It's like a flower blooming in front of the fire,

It's so beautiful."

Looking at Carl's sincere smile and compliments, Blanca's expression froze, and then she picked up the menu and handed it over as if nothing had happened.

"You should order."

"Are you shy?"

"Don't ask women about their emotions rashly. This is the second point to pay attention to."

Blanca sighed: "But I have already understood your personality and I have adapted to it. "So? ”

“Anyway, let’s eat first. ’

Blanca stared at Carl’s face: “According to your personality, you will be more likely to talk after you are full.”

“Yeah...it is true.”
