Cyberpunk: 2075

The girl with azure hair is a friend that Carl met during his time at the academy. The two of them never exchanged their real names. When Carl met her, he always faced her as Gaius. Today, I attended the Arasaka banquet as a security guard and saw her by chance. It must be said that it was a coincidence.

But this seems to be taken for granted.

After all, the girl is a student of Arasaka Academy. She carries the keys of the top Spanish sports car, the Herrera Gangster GTS. It is too outrageous to say that her family is not a powerful person in Arasaka. Now, because of family relationships, it is not particularly unexpected that she came to this banquet with her family.

It's just that the two of them were classmates before, but now one is a young lady who comes to the banquet to eat and drink, and the other is a "humble" security guard who can't even show her face in the banquet. The difference is quite big.

It feels like applying for a villa security guard, but finding out that his friend is the owner of the villa.

Thinking in his heart, Carl stood up straight.

It is a very happy thing to meet a friend who has not seen for a long time, but Carl came here for a mission today, so it is not convenient to meet his friends. His face appearing at the banquet will only cause panic, so he should not cause more trouble.

After the meeting, you can go over and chat.

Thinking so, Carl noticed that the blue-haired girl's eyes swept across him, but then turned back and stared at him again.

I don't know Why, Carl felt something was wrong.

It couldn't be that he was recognized...

In Carl's slightly nervous thoughts, one thing interrupted the blue-haired girl's increasingly suspicious gaze.

The dishes for Arasaka's banquet were placed after the participants arrived, and now it was time to provide food for the participants.

Teams of attendants walked out of the staff passage of the banquet hall one after another, holding a variety of delicacies in their hands, shuttling through the hall, and placing plates of exquisite dishes on various tables in the banquet hall. As long as the guests were interested, they could take those luxurious foods themselves.

Buffet, as a banquet, is the best and most convenient form of hospitality.

Carl breathed a sigh of relief when he felt that the blue-haired girl's eyes had moved away from him because of the arrival of the attendants. He was angry, and then he was concerned about the dishes.

He really wanted to know what the high-level banquets of Arasaka in this era were eating.

Of course, the real ingredients are not to be mentioned. What Carl is more concerned about is whether they will eat something special, a new thing cultivated by genetic modification, such as a cherry melon that looks like a watermelon, but tastes like cherry flesh when bitten.

If there are such things, Carl also wants to eat some.

After Carl carefully looked at the plates in the hands of the servants passing by him, he was disappointed.

There was nothing fancy, and it looked quite ordinary.

Carl stood there with nothing to do, and looked at the menu that was projected on the wall near him as the banquet staff entered.

There are about fifteen types of each dish. The first is salad, with roast beef salad , Caesar salad, potato salad, Italian sausage salad, etc.;

Then there are cold cuts, rose salmon platter, asparagus and tomato assortment, rose soy sauce chicken, Iberian ham slices, cheese platter, etc. The main dishes include French seafood stew, Spanish paella, Provence grilled pork chop, Danish Arctic sweet shrimp, fried lamb chop with rosemary sauce, etc.;

Desserts include Napoleon cake, egg pudding, Black Forest cake, macaron, Japanese cheesecake, Dorayaki, Daifuku, red bean water yokan...:::

Gurgle.

Carl obviously didn't swallow his saliva, but he felt as if he heard the sound of swallowing his saliva.

There are even Japanese Shenlu steaks grilled on the spot...,

Well, Carl still has to admit that these dishes are not ordinary. At least Carl is moved, and he even has the illusion of hearing himself swallowing his saliva.

You know, these things are made of real meat and vegetables, and even the top-grade ones with real meat and vegetable particles.

How can Carl, who has been in this era for almost half a year but still eats dead pork that has not been pickled or bled, not be tempted?

He felt that some of his desires were aroused.

‘Damn, I want to eat.’

When this kind of dishes are provided to people, there will be extra left, and the loss amount is expected. This group of people should not be able to eat that much. This trip is a slipknot. Ask Mr. Kenichi Shiro if you can take some extra food away.

Carl's eyes moved among the food, and suddenly found that V, when passing by a waiter in the crowd, took a cup of apple juice from his plate. In the corner he was responsible for, he had already started eating with a plate of fried shrimp and fried pork chops that he didn't know when he got.

How come you're already eating, and you're using juice to relieve the greasiness, right V!

Seeing V eating happily, and no one cared about him because of the badge on his chest, Carl admitted that he was jealous now, and jealous to the point of madness.

Don't eat it anywhere else, give your brother a bite too.

As if he noticed Carl's gaze, V, biting the tail of the fried shrimp in his mouth, turned his head and looked at Carl.

"Ah Ming."

After swallowing the whole fried shrimp in one gulp, he nodded to Carl and then gave him a thumbs up.

?

Why are you giving me a thumbs up? I'm not asking if you're okay or not, I'm asking if you can give me a bite too. What do you think?

Damn it, V is just eating and drinking.

The only thing that can comfort Carl is Oliver and Jack, who are guarding outside the hall. They can't even see the food, let alone eat it. Although Carl can't show off the food like V, at least he can still feast his eyes...

No way, it makes him greedier.

Carl didn't eat dinner when he came. He had breakfast and lunch together. He had a very ordinary sandwich: a few slices of bread, spread with synthetic butter, and sandwiched with his own smoked bacon. That little bit of food has been consumed long ago. He could still bear it, but now he can't bear it anymore when he sees V eating so deliciously.

Just as Carl was seriously thinking about whether he could get some food in the slow time, and then take the time to remove the helmet and stuff it in from the bottom, Kenichi Shiro appeared and interrupted Carl's thoughts.

Because along with Kenichi Shiro appeared, there was a girl, Chiyo, who was following behind him, as always, wearing a kimono that seemed to never change.

Arasaka Haruko, the only member of the Arasaka family in the Arasaka Tower and the highest-ranking Arasaka company employee in the entire Night City, had arrived at the scene.
