Cyberpunk: 2075

"Is this director Indian..."

"No, haven't you read the information? Karl, why do you ask?"

While taking the elevator downstairs, Jack answered Carl's self-murder: "Does it mean he has some Indian characteristics?"

"No, you don't need to worry about Jack, I just thought of a bad memory."

With a slight look of resistance on his face, Karl tried to keep his memory from going too deep into that memory: "It's better if you're not Indian, otherwise I'd be really scared."

"A little afraid of Indians, why?"

Jack was even more confused by what Carl said, and it was hard for Carl to explain this aspect, so he just said vaguely:

"I'm afraid of getting dirty."

"Afraid of getting dirty?"

Jack didn't know why. He wanted to kill the director anyway. Is there any difference between his race? Are Indians special?\u003e

"Although I feel that this guy's hobbies are not bad, forget it, it will only be a matter of bullets when the time comes, and it will be sterilized with high temperature."

While talking in the elevator, Karl stared out at the scenery of Night City through the bulletproof glass specially designed for the penthouse suite elevator.

At night, the real Night City has appeared.

At noon, they got a job from Rogge to assassinate the NCPD director. After discussing the strategy in the evening, Karl and the others went out.

It wasn't that Carl didn't want the NCPD chief to survive tonight, but the timing was just right.

The assassination mission is most covert at night. Although almost all the cameras in Night City are equipped with night vision functions, it is safer than blatant actions during the day. Karl and the others received the mission at noon, discussed the plan after dinner, and sorted out the equipment. , I found that it happened to be night already - isn't this a God-sent opportunity? Such a coincidence, wouldn't it be a shame not to take action tonight.

This can only be said to be too much of a coincidence. God is not willing to let the NCPD chief live one more night.

"Wait a minute, how are we going to get there? If there is an assassination this time, let's stay hidden and spread out?"

Looking at the ground floor that was about to arrive, Oliver made a suggestion for action: "How about we take care of Delamain's membership service today? I haven't even experienced the armed taxi driven by AI."

"Delaman, I think it will work. I have wanted to experience it for a long time. Now that we don't drive our own car, we have to take that one. Everything else is not up to par, right Oliver."

Listening to the chat between Jack and Oliver, two car enthusiasts, Carl recalled Delamain in his mind.

They were discussing a rental car company run by the Delamain Group, the only armed taxi service in Night City managed by artificial intelligence.

Unlike ordinary taxis, Delamain Car Rental provides membership services similar to trauma teams to ensure that customers can receive timely assistance in emergencies. What Jack and Oliver want is this membership service.

Karl still remembers that he also watched the relevant publicity with Oliver:

'Whether it is a floating car that is fast and comfortable in the air or an armed taxi on the ground that can ensure personal safety, Delamain Car Rental Company always promises to provide users with the most private, comfortable and thoughtful services. Choose Delamain and leave your worries behind. outside. "

Karl remembered that it was mentioned in the promotion that Delamain taxi users can choose to delete their ride and usage records. Although he does not know whether these records will actually be completely deleted, the system managed by artificial intelligence, in conventional thinking, In general, it is more strict and standardized than human management.

Usually, Oliver and Jack act together as a team, and everyone rides in the car together, so there is no experience of Delamain. But now, in order to conduct covert operations, it is the safest choice to spread out and act separately. This is exactly what the two of them do. A reason to immediately think of Delamain.

The two car enthusiasts have always been curious about Delamain's services and have always wanted to try it. Today is an opportunity, and they can't wait to experience it.

Comfortable, private, thoughtful?

Listening to the lively discussion between Jack and Oliver, Carl also briefly browsed the car rental services in Delamain. The floating car was too conspicuous, so he looked at the rental of ground armed taxis.

The taxi provided by Delamain is an armed taxi based on the Villefort Curtis and equipped with artificial intelligence. This kind of taxi can also activate the 'combat mode' protection after determining that the passengers are in a dangerous situation. Passenger safety...:

Um?

Karl stared at the battle mode in the service introduction again and again.

Is he really not reading any introduction to transforming robots? Why is there a battle mode? Can he just read the manual and take over the operation...

While thinking, the elevator door opened. Oliver and Jack said hello to Carl and V and then left in separate directions. Judging from their excited looks, it looked like they had already signed up for membership and started renting a car. Karl and V, who stayed where they were, looked at each other.

"Why did you go there and take the Dramain too?"

V was the first to ask Karl.

‘If you want to be hidden, you can’t take the designated subway where there are a lot of surveillance cameras... I'll take another look. If it doesn't work, just get a membership like Jack and Oliver. I think there are other "Excellence" packages that I think are good. How are you going to get there? "

Karl asked V, and V was also very free and easy: "I'm going to ask Regina."

"Regina, why are you asking her?"

Karl was puzzled.

The full name of Regina mentioned by V is Regina Jones. She is a middleman who has recently become famous in the Watson District. In the past, because of Mr. Johnson's relationship, Carl once took over her task and rescued Ann. Dee.

Regina Jones serves as a middleman, and the tasks she provides are usually tedious and poorly paid. Therefore, Carl's team rarely takes on her work as a team. However, since V came to Night City, the situation has changed. .

When the team is resting, V always uses his personal time to do Regina's private work. Only V does not dislike her tasks. Karl and the others also know this, but Karl doesn't understand why V would bring it up now. Regina.

Faced with Karl's doubts, V opened his mouth to explain:

"I'm going to ask her if there are any new scavengers or gang strongholds around here. When the time comes, I'll clean it up, leave one alive, and drive them there to take the blame."

After listening to V's words, Carl felt a feeling called 'As expected of you' in his heart.

Killing two birds with one stone, V is going to help Regina with some small tasks on the way there to earn extra money while bringing the scapegoat. This kind of behavior of walking around and doing things during the task, the entire Night City, Only V can do it.

"Then be careful and pay more attention to yourself."

After giving an ordinary reminder, Carl looked at V who waved goodbye to him and started to contact Regina, and also began to think about how he got there.

Whether I am imitating Jack, Oliver, or V, I can't just walk there. The chief of the NCPD lives in Charter Hill, so walking all the way from Little Chinatown is exhausting.

Just as Karl was thinking, a message came.

"I'm back in Night City. I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you want to meet me?"

The message is labeled...

Blanca.

Is she back from a business trip?
