Cyberpunk starts with signing in for the legendary mantis knife

Gloria was very pleased as a mother to see how David and Ali were playing together.

Ali sat at the dining table, tasting Gloria's cooking, which tasted really good, at least much better than the one-dollar hot dogs sold at the stalls before.

Ali casually opened a can of alcoholic beverage called"Stupid Monkey". He always loved to drink this stuff in the game. Although this stuff is a civilian drink, it is still quite expensive in Night City.

A can costs about 2 to 5 euros, and the price varies depending on the region. Anyway, it costs Ali 3 euros to buy a can in the supermarket near David's house.

"Gurgle Gurgle Gurgle……"

After taking a sip of"Stupid Monkey" and tasting the awesome V life, Ali exhaled happily.

"Ali can drink quite a lot, but what's the point of drinking alone? Auntie will drink with you."

Gloria also smiled and opened a can of beer. Seeing this, David didn't care to stuff steak into his mouth, and hurriedly opened a can of low-proof beer.

Ali didn't care. He smiled and raised the can to clink glasses with David and his mother. The three cans of beer collided under the light. The three of them drank a lot and had a good meal!

Although the meal didn't taste very good, David's family had a home atmosphere and feeling. This feeling was something Ali couldn't experience after crossing over, because Female V was almost in the company every day. In the more than one month since Ali crossed over, he and Female V had eaten at the same table no more than twice.

Ali felt that David was very lucky to have such a good mother. In Night City, such sincere feelings were very rare and precious. In short, Ali had a good experience eating this meal.

"Ali, David doesn't have many friends at school. You are the first one he has brought home since he started school."

"You two must help each other and study hard in school. In the future, you will go to work at Arasaka Corporation together, climb to the top of Arasaka Tower together, and stand on the height together to look out over the criss-crossing Night City!"

Perhaps because everyone was drinking together, as the relationship got closer, David's mother Gloria also opened up.

She tried hard to bring together David and Ali's friendship, and made the remarks that older parents should make, which were nothing more than advising them to be friendly, study hard, and have a good job in the future to become a superior person.

But in fact, many people are not happy to hear such preaching. Saying it out loud will not only put pressure on the other party, but it will also most likely lead to the opposite effect.

Ali did not show any reaction to this. He just nodded silently. After all, Ali knew that Gloria had no ill intentions. She was just an ordinary woman who wanted her son to be successful, just like most parents.

"Oh Kasan! You are already drunk!"

"Sorry, Ali, you have to be lectured."

Although Ali didn't care, David couldn't stand it anymore. He looked at Ali awkwardly, apologized, and told her mother to shut up!

"David, don't bother your mother. Remember, you are my Gloria's son. You must climb to the top of Arasaka Tower! You will definitely stand on the top of Arasaka Tower!"

Gloria blushed, and she said with an affirmative look and a firm voice. This was not only for David to hear, but also for herself. Because if David wants to climb up, she needs to keep working, and even do some gray industry to provide financial support for David!

Her work is very tiring and hard. Since Gloria paid for David to go to Arasaka Academy, her rest time every day does not exceed four hours.

David's mother Gloria works as a cleaner at the bottom of the company, and it is an outsourced job without a contract. Once casualties occur in Night City, Gloria will be responsible. The cleaners like her are responsible for collecting the bodies.

Gloria's shady business is to secretly hide the implants on the bodies, and then contact some cyberpunks to sell them.

But this kind of work is extremely risky and easy to be exposed.

If you are not careful, the company will find out and things will get serious.

Being fired is a small matter.

In serious cases, you will be immediately arrested by the NCPD and sued by the company.

You will be saddled with a debt that you can't pay off in your lifetime, and then you will be legally arrested by the company to pay for it.

As for whether the company arrests her for experiments or other things, it is not Gloria's choice.

"Oh, Kasan, you are really drunk, go and have a rest!"

David also knew that Gloria was drunk. His mother's alcohol tolerance has always been very poor. David immediately went over to support his mother and helped her away from the table.

"David, you promised me that you would climb to the top of Arasaka Tower.

Gloria looked at David nervously.

��In this situation, David could only sigh and said seriously and gently:"Okay, Kasan, I will definitely climb to the top of Arasaka Tower.……"

At the dinner table, Ali was silent. He felt very uncomfortable listening to the mother and son's words, because he knew David's ending and how David climbed to the top of the Arasaka Tower!

He would die...

In fact, David was not suitable for working in the company at all. Like David, who grew up in the bottom, was a single-parent boy, his mother worked hard day and night for a living, lacked the care of a complete family, and had a personality with obvious paranoid tendencies. His human weaknesses were too obvious. A person who lived for others all his life was too easy to be exploited in such a treacherous environment within the company.

Even if David really entered the company, the ending waiting for him was just a different way of dying.

He would be exploited to death by other people in the company, and after squeezing out all the benefits, he would be kicked out until he was played to death by the society of Night City.

Besides, David couldn't get into the company to work at all, because he had no background and no one to guarantee and recommend him.

In fact, he didn't even have the opportunity to interview.

Even if David was lucky enough to have the opportunity to interview, he would definitely not pass the company's screening.

Although David has good talent, his academic direction and hobbies are obviously not suitable for the company. Moreover, David already hates the company deep in his heart.

Ali left. Now that Hei Chaomeng had seen it, he had eaten, and Gloria was drunk, it was time for him to go home.

Ali said goodbye to David and then walked out of the room, because the purpose of his trip had been achieved.

「Sign in!」
