Cyberpunk: 2075

"Such a thing happened over there with Mann...There's nothing we can do about it. It seems like this mission can only wait."

The day after Carl rescued Sasha, after the three people who had completed their vacation gathered together to exchange information, Jack felt a little regretful but understandable: "But it's good that everyone is okay."

"No need to wait, I have a new piece of information here."

Oliver didn't say anything about the Mann team's surprise. He just passed something to Jack and Carl: "When I was having dinner with my sister yesterday, I checked up on Tanaka-related matters while waiting. He He is from Arasaka Company, and his identity is kept strictly confidential. There is not much that can be found, but there is still a piece of relevant news that you can take a look at. "

"news?"

Jack read out what Oliver sent: "Director Tanaka once again donated to Arasaka Academy..."

"Director Tanaka?"

Without continuing to read, Jack came to his senses: "He is a member of the board of directors of Arasaka Academy?"

"Arasaka Academy is an academy established by Arasaka Corporation to train corporate dogs who can enter Arasaka. It is natural that the company's top executives serve as board members."

Karl understood what Oliver wanted to say: "Oliver, what do you mean, we can try from Arasaka College to see if we can find any trace of Tanaka?"

Oliver nodded: "Yes, as a member of the board of directors, when there is a problem in the college, it is definitely necessary to come to the meeting... So I am thinking that maybe we can do something about this."

No wonder it is said that three cobblers are as good as Zhuge Liang. When there are more people, they can really come up with good ideas, which is much better than thinking by one person.

"But let's start from Arasaka Academy..."

Jack put his hand on his chin: "Is it possible that we are going to launch some terrorist attack?"

"While it's true that this is America and school shootings are not uncommon, don't do it. It's hell."

Carl said something that Jack and Oliver couldn't understand very well, and then continued:

"I think we can check the students' information and see if we can start from the students. The students of Arasaka College are not employees of Arasaka College yet, and their identities should not be kept confidential. Maybe we can find a few A student who knows Arasaka Academy very well, let’s see if they know how to induce Arasaka Academy to hold a board meeting.”

"Do ordinary students know this kind of thing?"

Jack questioned.

"certainly."

Karl said: "Who do you think can enter Arasaka College? The tuition fee for one year at Arasaka College is not something ordinary people can afford. The families of those students are either rich or noble. They know things that are comparable to those on the streets." There are more students in the school.”

"I have another idea."

Oliver said, and sent something more to Carl and Jack: "But this idea can be used at the same time as Carl's idea."

"What else did you send...Arasaka Academy admissions?"

Karl took a look and found that it was the news he had seen before: "Enrollment, are there any questions?"

When Carl asked this question, he found that Jack and Oliver were already looking at him, and the expressions on their faces clearly meant 'haven't you reacted yet?'

....

"So, what's the problem?"

Carl didn't understand it very well. It wasn't until Oliver took out his Nova revolver and used the polished gun barrel to reflect his own face that Carl finally understood what these two guys meant.

In the reflection of the gun body was a very young face that looked very suitable for studying at Arasaka Academy.

"Are you planning to sign me up for school?!"

Carl was shocked by Jack and Oliver's thoughts: "How could you have such thoughts when I enter school?"

"Isn't this the right age for you? Karl, you should do yourself a favor. Go in and play for two days, then come out after completing the task. Maybe you can learn a lot."

Jack immediately began to persuade Carl, and Oliver immediately followed: "That is to say, mercenaries have to do anything. I have heard before that the famous Morgan gangster would fall in love with a female star for a purpose. Well, you are just going to school now, which is better than falling in love."

"Wait a minute, I remember that's not Morgan Blackhand, that's 'Popular Lover' Lance Locke, a lone wolf who was as famous as Morgan Blackhand back then, and isn't that guy quite unreliable in his mission? I remember he usually only He takes on bodyguard assignments, and often the female stars he protects die in bed "magically."

Carl complained about Oliver's memory, and Oliver said indifferently:

"That's almost enough. They are all famous anyway... In short, Karl, don't you want to give it a try? You see, you don't have to pay one year's tuition after enrolling. As mentioned here, it includes equipment usage fees, school uniform fees, etc. For this fee, you can try it for a month at a discounted price of only 10,000 euros, and then pay the original price of 20,000 euros per month. Depending on your ability, one month will definitely be more than enough. "

"One month is more than enough time."

Carl didn't know why, but he felt as if he was being persuaded by Oliver and Jack to agree to it, but fortunately at the last moment, he realized the crucial point of this idea.

"Wait a minute, I remember that this face of mine has spread all over the Arasaka Company in Night City. I will probably be discovered when I enter the academy."

"Oh, don't worry about this, Carl. You know I came from the Six Street Gang, right? There is a little shadow of New America behind the Six Street Gang, and New America is a puppet supported by military technology. In our company, there are some research and development projects that military technology doesn't want. They are five-star secrets. You know, the superiors don't want to pass them on to the subordinates, and the subordinates make do with the name of five-star secrets and sell them to the lower people at a high price;

Among these projects, there is a technology that can change your appearance. My father happened to buy this technology and kept it for my sister and me, ready for us to run away when something goes wrong in the gang. For the road, I got the relevant prosthesis from my sister yesterday. According to the agreement, didn't Lao Wei ask us to go there today to check it before the mission starts? Just let Lao Wei help you install the prosthesis. "

"Prosthesis technology that changes appearance? I have never heard of this technology. It feels a bit sci-fi."

Carl expressed doubts: "Do I have to take off my whole face and replace it with another one?"

"It won't make you make such a sacrifice. If it is someone else who has had a face or eye modification, then some bionic skin will be lifted and rolled up to prevent it from interfering with the operation of the prosthesis, but for you, Carl, this technology is as simple as wearing a mask-at most, there may be a few small blood holes on your face. "

Listen, is it okay?

"Does Lao Wei know about this?"

"Prosthetic technology is very complicated. When my father gave it to my sister, he just followed it. But the difficulty of the operation is so simple that it is unimaginable. I sent the relevant procedures to Lao Wei yesterday and asked him. Lao Wei seems to have been exposed to similar things before. It can be done."

"Oh, you have thought about it and let me do it, right?"

"This is just right."

Oliver said, shrugging his shoulders: "Even if we install the prosthesis, we don't act like it. Jack and I are street hooligans. We can be seen through at a glance. You are not like that. You are like a young master."

"You mean, I look like a 17 or 18-year-old student from a wealthy family?"

Carl complained, but he had already agreed to it in his words.

For the mission, it seems that it is not unacceptable to sacrifice a little.
