Start in Night City

After everyone else has seen what's on the chip.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"Project Nightingale?"

Mann didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, whether he was excited or something else.

It never occurred to him.

There will be a day when I will be able to access this level of confidential information.

"So this is the information Faraday wanted us to get?"

Mann and the others sneaked into the office computers in the biotechnology building, and the data they stole was just the tip of the iceberg.

Not all of Project Nightingale has been documented.

The information about the Nightingale Project recorded on the chip that Rogge gave to Su Xiao is the complete version.

"Sasha, now you know why I took you out by force, right?"

Sasha nodded gratefully.

Project Nightingale was developed through a collaboration between military technology and biotechnology.

News 54 is the mouthpiece of military technology.

Now that military technology and biotechnology are in the honeymoon period of cooperation, News 4

However, negative news about biotechnology will not be exposed.

If Sasha chose to stay at that time, it would have no meaning except for one more body.

It is tantamount to saying that he died in vain.

However, although she survived, Sasha still felt a deep sense of powerlessness in her heart.

If Sasha thought that uploading the "SECURICINE" information to News 54 was equivalent to seeing light in the dark deep sea...

So Su Xiao telling her the truth now is equivalent to telling her that it is not the real light.

It is a small lantern used by anglers to lure prey.

Mann glanced at Sasha who was a little disappointed.

Suddenly he took a deep breath.

It was like after a fierce ideological struggle and struggle, a decision was finally made.

"Su, can you sell us all the data in this chip?"

Su Xiao looked at Mann in surprise: "You want to buy it?"

Mann nodded firmly.

Lidya Su's face showed a meaningful expression.

"Do you know how much these materials are worth?"

"I can pay in installments, as much or as little as I want."

"Okay, assuming I agree to hand over this information about the "Nightingale Project" to you, what are you going to do? "

Mann looked at the others again, then his eyes rested on Sasha.

Others were also curious and looked at him with confusion.

Don't understand what he wants to do.

Mann was very relieved and expressed all his thoughts.

"Use an anonymous phone number that cannot be traced, call Joanne Couch and Diana Cuno, the general managers of the "Nightingale Project", and tell them that we have dirty information about them. If they don't want this information, If it is reported by WNS News, just do as we tell you. "

Although Mann is quite big, he is not the kind of person with strong limbs and simple mind.

Su Xiao said that Military Technology is the financial backer behind News 54.

Mann immediately thought of WNS News.

I learned pretty quickly.

It's just a pity...

Lidya Su shook her head after hearing this: "You want to blackmail them?"

It’s not that he is standing on the moral high ground to condemn others.

But I think Mann's idea is a bit whimsical.

Scenarios like that where you think you have the leverage and you can manipulate the female executives of the company at will will only happen in the book.

The reality is that they will bring a dozen security forces to your door to silence you.

"No, I want to avenge my team members."

If there were no Su Xiao and these information.

There was no way Mann would have such an idea.

The price of revenge is too high for them to bear.

But now, with this information, maybe they can't give it a try.

However, Lidya Su still poured cold water on him mercilessly.

"No, if you use this method to deal with ordinary people, they may still give in. Company executives will not accept your coercion."

Mann was stunned for a moment: "Aren't they afraid that I'll expose WNS News?"

Lidya Su patiently explained.

"Of course they are afraid, but they will find ways and find various reasons to delay. This is testing the bottom line, or a game. Can you understand what I mean?"

"This information is a double-edged sword. It can cause you harm, but it can also hinder your judgment."

"They dare to delay because they are sure that you will not hand over the information to WNS News immediately. Otherwise, there is no need for you to contact them."

"Therefore, they have calculated this accurately, and will try their best to stabilize you first, and then seize the opportunity to find out your information... I know what you want to say, Mann, but don't underestimate the power of the company, at night In this city, there is no one that the company cannot find.”

"When that time comes, I'm afraid you and your team will be in danger."

Mann was stunned.

"Damn, there are so many tricks in these companies."

…

…

…

PS1: Faraday’s British supporting actor is Giancarlo Esposito.

That is Uncle Fried Chicken in "Breaking Bad".

In addition to "Breaking Bad", he also appears in "Better Call Saul", "The Mandalorian", "The Black Robe", and "Far Cry 6".

Chapter 109: Shot several times in the back, determined to be suicide (3K)

"Mann, forget it, I'm very grateful, but no need, don't do this..."

When she was in the biotechnology building, Sasha had the idea of ​​sacrificing herself and not wanting to drag down the team, so she chose to stay in the building.

Su Xiao is right, in Night City, giant companies are the sky.

Even the city hall has to look at the faces of giant companies.

If Mann is putting the entire team in danger because of her, then Sasha would rather give up on seeking justice.

Would rather give up revenge.

"Oh shit!"

Mann subconsciously wanted to reach out and punch the wall.

But then I remembered that this was Victor's clinic.

If it were anyone else, Mann wouldn't care so much.

At worst, you'll have to pay for it if it breaks.

But since Su Xiao introduced Lao Wei to Mann.

Mann and the others have been here many times.

Get advice and help from Lao Wei.

Replace inappropriate prostheses.

Replace with a more cost-effective prosthesis.

Moreover, Lao Wei would give them some tools and accessories for maintaining the prosthetic body every time.

These are charged at other prosthetic clinics.

But Laowei always gives it to them for free.

Not to mention that even Sasha received treatment at Lao Wei.

Therefore, Mann's hands were already raised in the air.

Finally, I let it go angrily.

Not only Mann, but others also felt a sense of embarrassment as they drew their swords and looked around at a loss.

Obviously they have grasped the weakness of the company dog.

However, the current situation is more like someone else taking advantage of their weakness.

"Mann, no matter what, you are in good spirits for thinking about your teammates."

"Stop teasing me, Sue."

"I'm not making fun of you. If you really have this idea, do you want to hear my plan?"

…

Two days later.

In a mansion in North Oak.

Diana woke up from a luxurious bed.

"Change the floor-to-ceiling window background."

The floor-to-ceiling windows in the bedroom changed in response and became transparent.

Outside, a large expanse of pleasant green comes into view.

Diana got up from the bed, put on her pajamas, and took a shower first.

The servant responsible for taking care of her daily life prepared breakfast in her favorite stand.

Sitting in the stands, enjoying a carefully prepared breakfast while looking at the city below.

Particularly the chaos of the Kabuki District, Heywood, and Santo Domingo, which were her must-have morning sideshows.

On one side is a narrow and crowded living environment, on the other side is a large villa with bright windows and shady trees;

On one side are synthetic foods that taste like crap, and on the other side are loving breakfasts that take care of taste, nutrition and health at the same time.

Of course, even with the best prosthetic eyes, it is impossible to really see clearly what those poor people are eating.

But this does not trouble Dr. Diana.

She can use her imagination.

Anyway, it’s not like I’ve never seen those poor people digging through trash cans.

All in all, looking at those places and imagining the poor living and dining conditions of the people there gave her a sense of superiority.

It made her feel like she was a god, able to trample poor people to the ground at will.

Let her sigh from the bottom of her heart: "Ah, this is life."

However, this beautiful morning did not last long before it was broken.

"Ms. Diana! Ms. Diana! Please look at this -"
