Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 455 68. You have to be patient
"Are we becoming more and more like bodyguards?"

Jack tried the weapon that Kurt Hansen had provided and complained:

"Although we can't say that all big jobs are protection commissions, after all, we have done some other types of big jobs, but recently the jobs have been transferred to the protection of people."

"There is no conflict of interest. The bottom line for us is that Kurt Hansen cannot die. What's wrong with taking on another job? It doesn't matter who makes the money, so why not let us make some."

Oliver was adjusting the gun he had just acquired, but it didn't feel smooth at all. "The only thing that made me uncomfortable was why we had to wear the clothes of the Hellhounds and use their weapons. We were members of the Arasaka Special Operations Team back then."

"It's like this to pretend."

V didn't feel anything about it, just like he didn't mind wearing the Arasaka combat uniform last time:
"We all know that those military technology personnel want to kill Kurt Hansen, so we have to stay around him. If we appear around him, we will definitely know that something has changed. We might just lie low for a while and prolong the mission. Isn't it more reasonable for us to pretend to be ghost dogs and stay around?"

"I don't believe it would be that difficult for the King of Dog Town to find someone in Dog Town."

Wearing a Cerberus uniform that was even larger than Jack's, Mann said unhappily:

"This suit is a modification of the New America suit. Wearing it always reminds me of the time I spent in New America. It's really uncomfortable. I think Kurt Hansen should just stay put, preferably in his old turtle nest, and let his men search Dog Town thoroughly. I don't believe they can't find those people with military technology."

"Maybe I can't find it."

Carl checked his Hellhound uniform and said:

"If Kurt Hansen really knew what was happening in every corner of Dog Town at any time, then the new American personnel would not have been lurking for so long to continuously collect information. Moreover, this incident is likely to involve someone under Kurt Hansen's command who is not very loyal. They may want Kurt Hansen to die. I don't think it will be possible for the intelligence to be handed over truthfully."

Carl was fiddling with the Hellhound uniform as he spoke, then suddenly sighed, which attracted the attention of several other people in the room who were wearing clothes.

"What's wrong Carl, is there something wrong with the uniform?"

Jack glanced at the uniform in Carl's hand and asked, "Does it not fit well?"

"It definitely fits. They're brand new but look old on purpose. Kurt Hansen did a good job in this regard. I'm just afraid that we won't be used to wearing them and it might arouse suspicion from others. But the color is so... "

Carl sighed deeply again: "It's all green, even the helmet. It really makes people feel quite heavy."

"What happened to the green one?"

Oliver had put on the Hellhound helmet and was watching Carl through the helmet camera on the helmet.
"fine."

Carl started wearing a uniform.

"Karl, if you can't adapt, how about you go to the outer area with Pyrrha and the others as support?" Mann suggested, "Anyway, there are enough of us inside."

"I'd rather not go sit in a row with those mechas on the periphery."

Dog Town is indeed a place full of martial virtues. Every few steps you walk, you will see a Netherhound drone mecha sold by an unknown company walking on the roadside. Carl still likes Night City a little better.

Although the people of Dogtown often say that Dogtown has a soul and the people of Night City like to act big and powerful, Carl thinks that this ghost place, Dogtown, is just so-so. It's not much better to just walk around in a pile of guns and weapons every day.

But no matter what, Dogtown and Night City are definitely better than Los Angeles where Carl has been.

The military technology and the new American military training base are too barbaric. Although both are under military control, Dogtown, which is run by Kurt Hansen, is more reasonably governed.

Complaining in his heart, Carl put on the clothes of the Hellhound.

In order to lure out the group of military technology and some "disloyal" elements under his command, Kurt Hansen did not intend to hide and wait for them to come to him, but planned to take the initiative to walk around Dog Town, like a lion patrolling his territory, waiting for the enemy's challenge. The people he planned to bring with him, besides a few Nether Dog personnel, were Carl, Mann and others.

I have to say that Kurt Hansen's courage and reaction speed were truly amazing. When he realized that there might be disloyal people among his subordinates, he hardly took other "loyal" subordinates with him. He only took a few soldiers who had just joined the Hell Hounds not long ago, and nominally wanted to train them, and Carl and others who were disguised as Hell Hounds, and then he prepared to set off.

They are courageous and their reaction is really quick, but it's a pity for Carl and others.

They didn't understand the style of the Cerberus Hounds and had to learn as they went along, but they were all experienced mercenaries after all, and it was enough to deceive the Cerberus Hounds soldiers who had just joined and were also following them. When Carl sat next to Kurt Hansen, Oliver was already chatting with a Cerberus Hounds soldier who had just joined the team about which Mewtwo was the best and whether Genting's service was awesome.

"how about this car?"

Kurt Hansen glanced at Carl who was sitting next to him: "It's an old model of Colby, equipped with crystal ball holographic projection technology, and it is extra reinforced. It is considered a pretty good car."

"not bad."

Carl, who was sitting in the passenger seat and watching the client take the steering wheel, made a brief comment:
"Outsiders can't see what's going on inside, but insiders can see everything clearly. The crystal ball technology is really good. And I just judged the armor reinforcement. You should have modified it with special materials. When I came up, I took a knife and tried it a little. My neurotoxin knife actually made a sense of pause when it was scratched. This kind of armor should be able to block ordinary caliber rifles."

He scratched the car before getting in, just to test the armor. How is this behavior like that of a naughty child?
Listening to Carl's words, Kurt Hansen was silent for a moment. Normally, if someone in the army or one of his subordinates did something like this, they would definitely be severely punished by Kurt Hansen, but the person who did this was KK.
"I have to remember the habits of you mercenaries."

Kurt Hansen silently stepped on the accelerator.

You have to endure some things when dealing with the mercenaries you hired.
