Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 12 12. Entrustment
Oliver and Jack both thought that the company dog ​​heard them and was about to come over to bite them, but the company dog ​​stopped in front of Carl and stared at Carl's face for a few seconds.

Carl’s face is indeed that of a handsome guy, but in this day and age, if you want a handsome or beautiful face, you can just find any prosthetics doctor to make it for you, so it is certainly not Carl’s face that attracted this corporate dog. What she noticed was Carl as a person.

"I watched the surveillance footage from Watson's Little Chinatown yesterday. You took out sixteen members of the Whirlpool Gang all by yourself, right?"

What happened yesterday was known today. The surveillance in the cyberpunk world is really detailed.

Carl was thinking in his heart, but he couldn't figure out the reason for this corporate dog. He wanted to get rid of the gang members. Even if there was any problem, it would be the NCPD's business.

But there was one thing he had to correct.

"I'm not alone, I have my friends helping me."

Carl pointed at Oliver.

But this corporate dog didn't even think of glancing at Oliver. She stood in front of Carl and folded her arms. The thing on her chest, which was originally pressed down by the corporate uniform and might have been modified, appeared to have a considerable arc as she folded her arms.

"I've seen the surveillance. I'm not blind. I know who the main force is. Don't worry, I'm not from the NCPD, nor am I a guy who's looking for trouble to express his sense of justice. I'm not a relative or friend of those scumbags you killed. I have something I want you to do. The reward is 100,000 Euros. What is it for?"

"One hundred thousand euros?"

Just as the company dog ​​expected, Karl was instantly attracted by the number, but he quickly came to his senses: "So, you are the one who came to commission."

Immediately, Karl's expression changed, a smile appeared on his face, and his tone became enthusiastic.

"You should have said you were a guest. Miss, please take a seat. Please tell me more about what you are talking about. As long as it is a task that we can handle and accomplish, we can complete it for you."

When a company dog ​​becomes a client, just put aside your prejudices for the time being.

Oliver and Jack looked at each other, and both saw some kind of contempt for Carl in each other's eyes, but the two of them moved quickly. They stood up and made room for Carl and the company's clerk so that they could have a good chat.

If you have a mission to take, tell me earlier.

We are all family, why be polite?

One hundred thousand euros is an amount of money that a low-level mercenary may not be able to earn in a year.

This time, the company employee did glance at Jack and Oliver, but she seemed a little disgusted with the seats they kindly gave up, as if she didn't want to sit in the seat where the two mercenaries had sat. She looked around and found an empty seat next to Carl. Although it was not very clean, at least no one had sat there when she came here before, so she reluctantly sat down.

After sitting down, she pulled out a strip-shaped data chip and motioned for Carl to take it and look at it.

Carl took it in his hand, and then inserted it into the access warehouse he had just modified yesterday, and then the content read from it was displayed in front of his eyes.

After spending a few seconds reading the contents, Carl unplugged the data chip and handed it back.

"How do you see it?"

"What do you call it?"

This time, Karl's tone was more serious. This job can be done.

"You don't need to know my name, just complete the task. Just tell me if you can do it."

"Of course, but how can I send you the specific proof?"

"When you have time, just call this number and send me the photos. Don't call me randomly. I'm very busy."

Carl felt what the company employee in front of him transmitted to him, wrote down the number, and then transferred 30,000 euros.

"This is a deposit as an advance payment. Don't think about taking the money and running away, unless you are not afraid that I will use the remaining money to buy your life."

After giving the warning, the company employee stood up, moved hurriedly, and walked out in high heels. From the time she entered the Wild Wolf Bar to the time she left, she didn't say a word to anyone else, nor did she even look at anyone else.

"Karl, what do you mean?"

Oliver understood that Carl had just accepted a mission, and asked curiously. "I'm sorry I accepted the mission without your consent."

"It's alright, buddy, don't mention such a small matter. It's better to say that you are so awesome. Someone has come to give me a mission just at the beginning. I am so happy that I can't contain myself."

Oliver was more curious about the mission: "So tell me about the mission."

"Wait a moment."

After raising his hand to alert Oliver and the others, Carl looked at Jack who was watching from the side and invited him, "Jack, since you are working alone now, do you want to take on a mission with us?"

"Me? Can I, too?"

The reward for the company dog ​​mission is not small, Jack naturally knows this, but he didn't expect that Carl actually wanted to use him to make money.

"More people means more strength."

Karl smiled and said, "Why do you want to do it together?"

"Dude, of course I'll do it."

As if infected by Carl's smile, Jack also smiled, and accepted Carl's invitation without even asking about the details of the task and the division of the reward. His action was truly generous.

Jack is always very straightforward when it comes to people he likes.

"Then let's divide the money first."

Oliver and Jack's eyes lit up. Before the business even started, they had already received their 10,000 share.

Coincidentally, Carl was also very straightforward about sharing the money.

"Oh my god, you dare to pay such a large deposit, what kind of mission did you receive, brother?"

"It's not a task that goes against one's conscience or disgusts people."

Amid Jack's sigh, Carl made way for Jack, and the two men who sat down again talked about the mission whose reward would make ordinary low-level mercenaries jealous and go crazy.

The content is quite complicated, but in Carl's words, it can be summarized very concisely.

Simply put.

'Go to a Vortex Gang site in Watson District where there are 20 people stationed. Go in and find a box that was stolen from the company. You don't need to return it to the client. Just destroy it and take a photo of the destroyed residue.'

"It seems like that girl from the company has some leverage over this."

Jack, who was well-informed, guessed that there might be something extraordinary in the box.

"It's probably some kind of threatening photo or something. Isn't that how it's played out in Japanese movies?"

Oliver, who knows a lot, said so.

But Carl was thinking about the connection between certain things.

The Uzumaki Gang had previously robbed the Sixth Street Gang, and now this company employee who saw him fighting the Uzumaki Gang has had his things robbed again. Is there any connection between the two, or is it that the Uzumaki Gang is in the season of robbery now?
There is too little information to think too much.

Now what is more important is.
"Walk?"

"Let's go after we finish eating."

Oliver and Jack stuffed their mouths full of slices of Spanish ham.

Well, the kind with unknown raw materials.
