Cyberpunk: From Dogville to Legend

Chapter 104: Offline Unboxing and Product Review (1 words, please read the author's comments)

Lizhi Bar.

Sasha was freed from the cyberspace, her body burning hot. She had now become a "little host girl" who had been on standby for a long time.

Just then, Judy leaned against the doorframe, taking bites of pizza. "So serious lately?"

Sasha smiled slightly, and only when the deep-sea device behind her head emitted hot air did her rosy cheeks return to their normal color.

"It seems like there's a problem with the heat dissipation of my prosthetic body."

Judy smiled indulgently, "Alright, alright, it's not like you're online all day long. Come and see my latest Mewtwo, I'm sure you'll love it."

Sasha jumped for joy as soon as she heard about the new Mewtwo.

"Hmm... which kind?" Sasha hesitated a bit. There were many strange Mewtwos in Liz Bar, but for a well-informed Netwalker, she had seen all sorts of exciting things... but she couldn't quite understand what Judy was talking about—the kind of love between girls.

As the top editor of this Mewtwo video, Judy will make Mewtwo more beautiful, moving away from low-level physical pleasures. The carefully constructed visuals are no less than experiencing a romantic story in the old days. These Mewtwo videos are very popular among the girls at Lizhi Bar, after all, most of the girls at Lizhi are into both men and women.

Sasha sometimes takes on the role of reviewing and evaluating, and Judy likes this sweet-talking younger sister very much, so she never minds that Sasha has priority viewing rights.

“You guessed wrong. Remember that little toy you told me about last time? The kaleidoscope—I tried searching for a lot of information online and finally figured out how this little thing is made. It’s beautiful…it lets you immerse yourself in your own mirror kingdom.”

Judy smiled mysteriously, and before she could finish speaking, Sasha slipped past her in a flash—

"I want to see!"

Sasha's favorite thing is the kaleidoscope. It's a little gadget her mother made for her when she was lying in a hospital bed. The world inside is like the dream that everyone talks about.

She also loved to dance, and it was she who taught Rebecca to dance. She would often tiptoe and twirl like a swan as she walked, because her mother had told her that before winter arrived, beautiful swans would dance like fairies on the shimmering lake…

Oh right, that kind of dance is called ballet.

Superdream experts are, in a sense, true technical experts, with their expertise in sensory signal amplifiers, auditory and emotional fluctuation monitoring devices, etc. Strictly speaking, superdream is about amplifying subtle stimuli in the brain.

Sasha sat patiently on the sofa, waiting for her sister Judy to adjust the various devices. Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she asked:

"Judy, what are Mewtwo's basic techniques?"

As Judy worked, she explained, "It's basically integrating many signals—hearing, smell, touch—and emotions—onto a single chip. It's also an important means of recording information."

When Mewtwo was mentioned, Judy became very animated.

Sasha nodded. "I understand that, but how does it achieve such a high level of realism?"

Judy paused for a moment to think, "So-called realism is actually just a collection of various pieces of information that you might easily overlook..."

After saying that, she played an audio clip.

What did you hear in that part?

Sasha answered without hesitation, "It's the downtown area!"

Judy held up a finger. “Then let’s peel it back layer by layer. You’ll hear the details in all this noise. The reason why people feel that a dream is real is because what we ignore is precisely the important source of the sense of realism. A dream is not just a person’s memory, but a collection of information.”

Sasha's pink glasses were displaying various interpretations of Mewtwo derived from Judy's words:

"The reason why the chip-separation technology is a major epoch-making technology is largely due to Mewtwo. Invented by Yuriko Sugimoto (note) in 2007, Mewtwo not only changed the way entertainment, military technology, and information display were made possible, but also gave rise to new types of crime."

"[Using the extrapolation of the Moss equation (basic neural response translation) and a hacker network interface, Yuriko managed to record abstract information, such as thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations, into an information chip, thus giving birth to Mewtwo.]"

"[It is reported that over 80% of the heinous crimes in Night City (not limited to murder, kidnapping, etc.) are committed to recording Mewtwo, with the most notorious organizations being the Cleaners and the Whirlpool Gang.]"

Sasha's face scrunched up when she saw the last line, and a disgusted cat face appeared above her glasses:
️

"Ugh, those disgusting street cleaners... they always sell DVDs about murder. Why would anyone be so twisted as to enjoy watching this kind of stuff—"

Judy shrugged helplessly. "That's because people are more evil than you think. Mewtwo technology was originally a good technology, but after it was invented..."

She didn't continue. Although she knew that everyone in Night City understood how low the city's bottom line was, she still wanted to dream.

After watching Judy adjust the equipment, Sasha asked, "To complete the recording of Mewtwo, do we need something particularly complex that reads information, like an implant? But it seems that such an implant doesn't have much use other than recording Mewtwo, right?"

Judy held up the Mewtwo headband and playfully pinched Sasha's nose. "It's mainly about capturing signals. In some cases, I can create Mewtwo using my prosthetic eye, nasal sense of smell, and stimulation signals from simulated skin... Maybe you can ask Evelyn, she often records Mewtwo and gets all the information out of those rich men."

Sasha suddenly thought of Lin Yue's behavioral characteristic face. The underlying logic of this thing is full-dimensional information sampling. However, it focuses more on the perturbation model between the person and the environment to infer the person's habits and various micro-movements. With appropriate amplification, this technology should be able to be realized, right?

This would make it much easier for Lin Yue to gather information.

Haha! I'm such a genius!

Just as Judy brought the Mewtwo Ring close to Sasha's face, Sasha's eyes flashed red rapidly a few times.

Got it!

She blocked Judy's headband, her expression somewhat unpleasant.

Judy also sensed something was wrong. "What's wrong?"

Sasha pulled out the pink pistol from the side. "Someone has broken in—I can't stay here, Judy. I'll see Mewtwo another time!"

Before the two could finish speaking, Judy's studio was violently ripped open!

"Holy crap!" Although Judy is a master of Mewtwo editing, the residents of Night City all know one thing: when in danger, pick up a gun and fight back—the moment someone breaks in, Judy picks up the gun on the table and fires directly at the intruder!
Sasha held the pistol and fired a bullet directly into the intruder's forehead.

bass!
Sasha's "cat claws" extended from her nails, each of them a long, thin, sharp, high-strength blade over twenty centimeters long—she called this prosthetic body by this cute name, but it was actually a product of military technology, a cold weapon-type prosthetic body customized for the aesthetics and safety of female clients [Ripper]!
Seeing his companion who had charged forward be shot down, the mercenary immediately opened fire with his shotgun, tearing the objects in Judy's Dream Studio to shreds with the power of the bullets!

The Mox gang's women had mostly gone home during the day, which allowed these scumbags to sneak in so easily. The warning light in Sasha's eyes just now was the signal from Lizizi Network indicating an intrusion.

The guy, wielding the powerful [Military Technology - Crusher], smashed through every available cover. Judy crouched under the table, clutching her head; the overwhelming firepower kept her from showing herself for the time being.

Just as several mercenaries craned their necks to see if there were any survivors in the dusty basement, a pink figure in the darkness, its hands gleaming with a sharp, cold light, suddenly rushed in front of them.

"Depend on!"

The mercenary's hair stood on end; that speed was incredible!
At this moment, he could already see that pale pink pupil with a trail of light rushing towards him in the darkness!

He couldn't connect those two eyes with the smiling, squinting girl in the mission briefing—

So the mercenary punched the target in the head.

With a cat-like agility, he almost dodged the powerful fist, and the sharp claws caused him almost no pain before his arm was torn apart.

Pfft!

The thick bulletproof vest was torn in half by the Ripper prosthetic body. The mercenary felt a chill on his stomach as a soft, warm hand wrapped around his neck.

"Gulu..."

The mercenary was unable to speak, and thick blood kept gushing from his mouth.

The teenage hacker was like a cat playing and circling with its owner. Sasha used his body as cover, supporting him, while the pink in her eyes gradually turned into a scarlet hue—

Seeing that things were not going well, the mercenary's other teammates behind him threw a grenade with the pin off, which flew in a perfect arc over Sasha's head.

She aimed her pistol directly at the grenade, and a deafening explosion and flash of light instantly swept over them!

Sasha discarded her body, riddled with holes from the grenade explosion, and nimbly dodged a circle of bullets that almost bit her. The mercenaries who were firing wildly didn't notice that the girl's repeated glances back were to confirm her target.

It looks like the big guy has the most powerful weapon, and the prosthetic body is the most ferocious!
Data surged from Sasha's prosthetic eye—

[Quick Solution] - [Cyber ​​Psychosis]!
The big guy carrying a kinetic rifle was fighting when he realized that the scene in front of him had changed, and two female hackers had suddenly appeared behind him!
I go? !
The big guy instantly tensed up and punched the female hacker's head into the wall, causing a spray of blood and the roar of his teammates.

His teammates were stunned by this sudden turn of events: "What the hell are you doing?!"

The giant, who had been trembling wildly as if waking from a dream, calmed down a little and found something sticky in his hand. He flipped it over and found a smooth piece of skull in his palm!

However, in that instant of clarity, the mercenary with the gorilla-arm prosthetic arm completely plunged into the abyss of cyberbullying.

Sasha quickly walked up to Judy, occasionally ducking to avoid the bullets whizzing in from outside. "Judy, let's go!"

Judy and Sasha rushed out of the emergency exit hand in hand, the empty passage echoing with the terrified screams of the mercenaries: "Fuck you, Cyber ​​lunatic! Call the Terrorist SWAT team, damn it!"

Judy stared blankly at the short-haired girl who had ripped the mercenary's chest apart; she felt as if she had never met this person before.

Sasha led Judy all the way out, saying, "Judy, you absolutely must stay with the Mox gang for the time being—remember?"

Judy was clearly stunned by the fight. "Holy crap... what the hell is going on?! What about you?"

Judy's smoky eye makeup was already smudged with tears, and she kept asking Sasha questions.

Sasha fell silent, squeezing Judy's hand tightly against her cheek. Not wanting to drag innocent people into this, she pursed her lips and didn't mention Dogtown, Lin Yue, or the military technology.

Sasha seemed to have made up her mind: "Take care of yourself."

Judy stared blankly at Sasha's slender back, seemingly about to disappear into the morning mist of Night City—

"Don't go!"

Upon hearing this, Sasha walked even faster and disappeared in no time.

Judy instinctively ducked into a dark corner. The gunfire at the Liz Bar subsided, while the sirens of the Terrorist Mobile Squad's hovercars blared loudly and shrilly. The surrounding city was instantly thrown into chaos! Sensing the gravity of the situation, Judy prepared to leave.

She crept towards the alley entrance, hoping to drive her minivan home or go to Genting Highlands to find her girlfriend—

In short, she is very scared now.

Just as Judy poked her head out of the alley to look outside, several Arasaka cars rushed out from the front of the alley.

company?!
Judy instinctively turned and ran!
However, behind the alley, a tall woman with cold eyes stood with her hands in her suit pockets, her bloodshot eyes staring at Lizhi's dream expert!
I go……

Judy plopped down on the ground.

The scenery behind the woman seemed distorted, a blurry shadow scurried past her, and a sharp samurai sword was held to Judy's neck.

As the optical camouflage faded, the female warrior, whose body was almost entirely made of cybernetic armor, twisted her neck, making a mechanical sound. Her insect-shaped prosthetic eyes shone brightly, devoid of any emotion—Judy had no doubt that she could have her head ripped off at the woman's command!
A cyber lunatic kept by the company?!

The woman slowly stepped forward, crouched down slightly, and a fresh, herbal fragrance wafted from her. Her voice was pleasant but slightly nasal, "Where is that hacker?"

Judy took a step back. "I...I don't know."

call out--

A bullet pierced the chest of Agent Arasaka, who was blocking the alley entrance, but V slightly tilted his head to dodge it.

"Enemy attack!"

The people from Arakasa immediately opened fire in the direction the bullets were coming from!
At this moment, the military technology squad rushed out from the opposite alley in an attack formation, and gunfire suddenly erupted like a storm!

V was clearly getting impatient. The ninjas around him, who were covered in prosthetics, rushed out almost without being given a command and quickly disappeared into the surrounding environment!
The military technology squad on the other side and the street fighting in Arasaka broke out almost instantly!
V tapped his fingers on his arm, quietly waiting for his henchmen to deal with the approaching military soldiers.

The sound of a blade piercing flesh was cruel and muffled.

As the sound of Arasaka Takeshi wielding his sword rang out, Judy's pitiful screams echoed from behind her as she clutched her head, her body trembling every now and then.

These ninjas, who came from Japan and were brutally trained in the winter snow, wiped out the elite squad of the shogunate in just a few minutes!

Having completed his mission, the ninja twirled the hilt of his sword in his hand, flicked the blade with force, and splattered the blood on it onto the ground before slowly returning the sword to its sheath—swiftly and cleanly.

They couldn't find Rin in Dogtown. They finally managed to find a hacker who was still in contact with Rin through Arasaka's hacker, but someone else made the first move.

V's last bit of patience had vanished. What was going on with Rin's men? How were they able to hide so well in Night City?

"Go after it."

V waved his hand, and the samurai instantly disappeared into the surrounding buildings. Judy seized the opportunity and pulled out a pistol from behind her back, but V only raised his calf before the gun was kicked away.

Judy rubbed her wrists, her face full of resentment, "Company dog!"

V wasn't angry. "You just missed our chance to protect her, you stupid woman."

As he spoke, the ornately patterned prosthetic hand patted Judy's cheek, and V stood up, retreating like a tide as agents withdrew from the alleyway.

Judy felt as if she were in a dream, but the bloodstains on the ground and the MI6 squad members hacked to pieces at the alley entrance reminded her that this was what had just happened.
-
A bustling bar filled with unspoken thoughts.

"Hey~ handsome, wanna grab a drink?"

The woman's bright eyes were fixed on Fentara. Lin Yue sat at the bar counter, biting into his hamburger. He was clearly not interested in this overly daring sex doll and immediately refused.

His attention was now entirely focused on the elevator; Aguilar hadn't come out since going in.

Mann's team had completed their attack on the Voodoo Gang, but Mr. Hanz hadn't made any move, which made Lin Yue somewhat uneasy.

"Relax, your heart rate is too high, it's easy to spot the problem."

Sasha was analyzing the various personnel information scanned by Lin Yueyi. Whenever someone from Night City appeared in the room with heavy thoughts, he would ask Sasha to investigate their background, especially the high-end private rooms near the elevator. However, the most private VIP room on the side was always guarded by the Ghost Hound.

Lin Yue stared at the several flashy-dressed men who walked in from outside, who seemed preoccupied with their own thoughts. His intuition told him that something was amiss with these men.

Generally speaking, corporate executives dress themselves in a very trendy and elegant manner because they have enough money to have high-end clothing stores in the Night City municipal district customize various clothes for them.

However, there are two exceptions: Lower-level employees at Arasaka are not required to wear formal attire, and can even get tattoos, dye their hair, and wear strange prosthetics to express their individuality. The work of these lower-level employees is extremely demanding, and denying them outlets for their emotions would be counterproductive.

However, once an employee of Arasaka rises from the bottom, it's best to buy a decent suit to cover up your tattoos. The higher the rank of an Arasaka employee, the more appropriate their attire.

This is also true in military technology, which has the most complicated corporate regulations of all companies, even making explicit requirements on the length of female employees' hair—the binding force of such regulations is still reflected in female executives, after all, some people have been kicked out of the company for this reason.

As for other companies, it can be difficult to distinguish between corporate executives and Mewtwo Stars—after all, not all corporate leaders like the neo-militaristic style of dress.

As expected, Sasha directly told Lin Yue about the background of these people.

Do you recognize the woman on the left wearing the latest high-quality, thin-fiber, five-colored dress from [Jinguji]?

Lin Yue shook his head.

Sasha: "This is Night City's hottest dream star, the top actress of the Fourth Wall Studio—Little Devil! Her performance in 'Rotten Love' was absolutely incredible! And that dress is amazing; I heard that some women sell their kidneys just to wear this new style!"

Sasha went on and on, but Lin Yue only heard about female celebrities and movies she'd acted in… nothing more! As for selling a kidney to wear a skirt?! What's the difference between that and someone cutting off their kidney to get a smartphone? Can clothes and electronics hold their value?

Listening to Sasha's eloquent introduction—

Lin Yue thought he would never have anything to talk about with women about celebrities and shopping in his life. So V seemed much cuter. She didn't gossip, was quiet, and efficient. Not bad at all.

He scratched his head, saying that the entertainment industry and such were too complicated. "So, after all this talk, do you know those two guys next to you?"

Sasha rolled her eyes at this clueless, unsociable man. "Look at their cuffs, you idiot! Executives at Fuyuki Electronics?"

Lin Yueyi's eyes moved closer, and sure enough, those guys had a long, rectangular logo button on their cuffs, with the Dongyue Electronics logo in cursive English.

"No, it should be something like a company representative," Lin Yue concluded.

Sasha was a little confused as to why Lin Yue was so certain that the two men were representatives of Dongyue's company.

Lin Yue: "I don't understand the entertainment industry, but I do understand corporate dogs. Executives won't come to Dog Town; they value their personal safety too much and have strict security measures in place."

Sasha said "Oh," and then added, "So our Mr. Hans has to apologize to these company employees?!"

"Regardless, Hanz's business has fallen apart. The fact that he had Voodoo Gang kidnap someone does exist, and the company needs to give them an explanation, right? For example, if you told that company clerk that Hanz betrayed him, the company would definitely come and investigate thoroughly—"

However, Lin Yue did not believe that Dongyue Electronics could find out about Hanz behind it; at most, they would just cover it up as a misunderstanding.

Lin Yue looked around, his mind replaying the map that weighed heavily on his mind. He had to find out why these executives were here.

Lin Yue noticed that the group of company employees had gone into the VIP room, and sure enough, a familiar figure came out of the elevator—but Lin Yue was dumbfounded when he saw who it was.

"Emma?!" Lin Yue stared at the alluring woman whose waist swayed as she walked.

Isn't this Hanz's wife? When did she start looking so preoccupied?
Sasha and Lin Yue exchanged a glance, their thoughts coinciding: Could that Aguilar be Hanz's woman in disguise? But now was not the time to worry about Hanz's wife. Lin Yue walked into the restroom, opened a toilet door, and found a guy inside having a great time.

Lin Yue knocked the guy unconscious with one punch, then stood on the toilet and gently pried open the ceiling above.

"There are a lot of technical mines in this ventilation duct, and there's also a gate. Can you help me crack it later?"

After the two agreed on their plan, Lin Yue slowly moved through the pipes toward the VIP room.

Upon entering, the entire dark pipe was filled with red laser lines; the density was extremely high.

Lin Yue tried to crouch gently along one side of the pipe, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat, the red line almost brushing past the tip of his nose.

At this point, Lin Yue became surprisingly calm, using his peripheral vision to observe the distance of the surrounding red laser lines while cooperating with Sasha to determine the direction.

The subnet with its heavy heart had much stronger defenses than other subnets, and it was clear that Hanz, with his corporate experience, had a group of hackers under his wing in this building.

"But the last one is stuck in the middle of the pipe, what should we do, Lin Yue? Do you know how to remove it? If I were here, I could easily go under that intersection—but you're too big, it probably won't work."

Lin Yue tried using the night vision function of his prosthetic eye to scan the landmine, and slowly reached his hand towards the cover on the side.

"I'm going to... I don't want Lin Yue."

Sasha lowered her voice.

This guy is incredibly daring; how could he even think of defusing landmines on the spot?

Lin Yue frowned. "Sasha, can you get your hands on this schematic diagram? Quickly!"

Sasha frantically searched online and finally sent a bunch of complicated technical drawings to Lin Yue. These small guard mines have a two-way positioning laser line, which will detonate immediately even if a person just brushes against it. It is very sensitive and can accurately identify flying insects and the like, so the possibility of accidental detonation is extremely low.

Level 9 technical skills are actually not bad; at least Lin Yue can understand the detonation mechanism of this basic landmine.

At this critical juncture, Sasha dared not speak. She originally wanted to dissuade Lin Yue, but she was afraid of affecting him.

No wonder he was able to keep those guys in check, he's a madman!
Lin Yue gently pried open the side panel and, without Sasha even understanding what was happening, systematically pulled out the densely packed wires from several small holes. The whole process took only a few dozen seconds.

"Zi~"

The laser beam went out instantly, and the sound gradually faded.

Lin Yue wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly tiptoed towards the ventilation opening of the VIP room...

……

Emma took several deep breaths, trying to suppress the discomfort in her heart.

She pushed open the VIP door with a smile on her face.

Inside, the female celebrity, Mewtwo, was reclining beside the representative of Fuyutsuki Company, while another slightly more robust man sat on the sofa, looking at the curvaceous woman with amusement.

"Look who this is?!"

The company representative from Dongyue stood up to welcome Emma.

Emma smiled slightly, seemingly oblivious to the two extremely aggressive gazes, "I'm a little late, sorry both of you."

The man patted the sofa beside him. "Then please, Madam, have a seat here?"

Emma showed no sign of reluctance, and instead sat down next to Fuyutsuki, with one hand immediately wrapping around her waist.

"Where is the renowned Mr. Hans? Is he planning what to do with us?" The man was so close that Emma's face stiffened.

However, she still responded with composure: "My husband will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give your company an explanation... After all, the sabotage by some petty people has already caused misunderstandings, hasn't it? If Mr. Snowton feels that we betrayed your employees behind the scenes, then we are truly heartbroken."

The man pressed his advantage, "I trust Mr. Hans very much. After all, we've been working together for so many years. He's much safer than some clubs in Night City—just kidding, I hope you don't mind, Madam."

Emma shifted slightly to the side. "So, would you two like to have a drink? This trip is on our end."

Another company representative, holding Mewtwo Star, shrugged and gave a sly smile. "Emma, ​​you don't understand Mr. Snowton—he doesn't like drinks that aren't made with sincerity."

Lin Yue was overjoyed.

Is the company really operating so freely on Mr. Hans's turf?

He also reminded Sasha, "Don't look at it."

Sasha muttered, "Why can't I watch this?"
Emma's patience had reached its limit, and she placed the wine glass she was holding on the coffee table.

“Mr. Snowton, the prototype of the network access pod was sold to the Dogtown Voodoo Gang by your technicians. We have intelligence cooperation with the Voodoo Gang, but that doesn’t mean we took your goods. It was our mistake not to help your employees get out of the blackmail in time… but I advise you to show me some respect, okay?”

Snowton looked somewhat displeased. "Emma, ​​we've been feeding Mr. Hans a lot of money into the prosthetics business. The board needs us to submit project proposals."

Lin Yue's spirits lifted upon hearing that they had arrived.

Does Hanz have any business dealings with Fuyutsuki Electronics regarding prosthetics?

"If we can't find the prototype blueprints, you'll be in big trouble too. Please be patient, everyone," Emma said with a slight smile, beckoning to the door.

The hound soldier pushed open the door and looked at Emma.

"Let's bring some fun to these two gentlemen, and have more sensible girls come."

Emma stood up as she spoke.

The company representative from Dongyue narrowed his eyes, leaned back on the sofa, and swirled his wine glass. "Then we'll consider doing business with the Colonel."

Emma took a deep breath. "Please make yourselves at home, gentlemen. Have fun!"

At this moment, Hanz was deep in thought in a private room on the second floor, stirring a sugar cube that had not yet dissolved with a teaspoon.

"Boss, the negotiations with Dongyue have fallen through."

The ghostly hound from before was standing outside the door, reporting the situation to Mr. Hans.

Hans waved his hand dismissively. He was very magnanimous; apart from business and status, nothing else mattered to him.

Emma then stormed in from outside, yelling, "Wade, are you crazy?!"

Hanz turned to look at Emma, ​​"Are you crazy?"

He waved for the hound to retreat, and only after the automatic door closed did he slowly say:
"Then tell me, isn't everything you enjoy thanks to these businesses? You're unwilling to suffer even the slightest loss, oh my... I've spoiled you rotten."

Emma paused, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She knew that these corporate dogs would treat her like a commodity and trade her away without hesitation when it mattered!

Hanz took a sip of tea and said in a completely indifferent tone:

"Most of the prosthetic bodies from Dongyue Electronics are sold to stadiums by us. Things can change in a few days, so I'm just letting you keep them occupied for a while so my people can find the blueprints as soon as possible. Isn't that good?"

“Emma, ​​get off. We need to get our company friends to change their minds. We’ve already lost a lot, and if we keep losing, we’ll be out of the game.”

Emma gave a cold laugh.

"Mr. Hanz, you've worked for the company for so long, and in the end you're still just the company's dog, aren't you? Don't you think about how the information was leaked? Making your wife go and play around, you really have something to say about you."

Hanz was clearly losing patience.

“Zeta Technology, Fuyuki Electronics, Internet Security... are important clients in my Dogtown business. If you still want to enjoy favorable conditions and a wealthy life, then do what you should do.”

Emma straightened her skirt, her expression colder than ever before.

"Wade Blick! You're a bastard!"

Mr. Hans turned around, the automatic door closed, and he revealed a smug smile.

Lin Yue was completely unaware that the information was recorded above the room's ventilation ducts. Before long, he discovered that Emma had returned.

"Wow... Lin Yue, do you think this deal is so big that this middleman would go to such lengths to send his own wife away?"

Sasha muttered to herself, clearly not expecting this to happen.

When Emma came in, the company representative was surrounded by women on either side of her, and even Mewtwo was watching, looking like he was living the high life.

Emma waved her hand, and the two women left. Mr. Snowton also woke up from his dream, opened his eyes, saw Emma standing in front of him, sneered, and lit a cigarette. "Madam, weren't you very reluctant to have a drink with us? Why are you willing now?"

"Don't even mention you, even if it's Hanz, if he can't get the prototype blueprints back for us, he'll disappear from here, understand?!"

Emma brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "We will definitely find the prototype blueprints for you, Mr. Snowton, and our business will continue."

Snowton scoffed impatiently. "So, are you standing there and I have to ask you to come?"

Emma had no choice but to obediently come to Snowton's side. Snowton pulled her into his arms tightly, and the pungent smell of smoke hit Emma's face. Another company representative, who was holding the Dream Girl, gave a thumbs up, "Looks like Madam has finally figured out how to drink."

Emma placed her hand on Snowdon's chest, her voice incredibly seductive.

"Let's change the location, Mr. Snowton?"

Snowton waved his hand and beckoned to another colleague and Mewtwo Star, "Okay! We'll do as you say! Let's have a good time in Dogtown and have some fun here—hopefully we'll get our prototype blueprints by tomorrow morning."

The light in Emma's eyes went out completely. "As you wish."

Lin Yue slipped out of the pipe, his heart pounding with excitement.

"So Dongyue Electronics is actually in the business of prosthetic bodies for Dogtown. Isn't this just pulling hairs off the Colonel's head?"

Sasha nodded and said, "It seems like this deal is quite big. We messed up Hanz's operation this time."

Lin Yue jumped down from the bathroom ceiling, while the unlucky guy who had fainted was still lying under the toilet.

"So what's the arrangement now?"

Sasha stroked her chin, also racking her brains for ideas, and slowly said, "If that lady is Aguilar, does that mean she has the behavioral characteristics of this assassin? And what if those two company representatives died on Hanz's territory..."

high!
Lin Yue wanted to give Sasha a thumbs up. As expected of a hacker, her heart was truly ruthless!
"Then this business deal is completely ruined."

After a brief discussion, and due to the urgency of the situation, Lin Yue made his way through the crowd from the bustling dance floor—

"Lin Yue, you need to change your approach!"

Sasha loudly reminded him, "It's such a waste to use your identity to cause them trouble."

Lin Yue almost forgot about this floor.

Because of the chaotic lights on the dance floor, Lin Yue used the light to transform himself into his original appearance, took off his jacket and stuffed it under a drunkard's butt, then grabbed a flashy rock-and-roll jacket and crawled out from under the heavy-hearted man.

Lin Yue closed the car door, took a deep breath, and knew that tonight he would personally ruin Hans's company business.

ten minutes later.

The two vehicles from Dongyue Electronics have already started driving towards the remote mountains of Dogtown.

Lin Yueyi scanned the situation with his eyes, "One security vehicle, how many people?"

Sasha carefully analyzed the data and signals. "Four security guards, that means they've purchased personal security services from a security company... Lin Yue, I have to log off. It seems there's a problem with the cooling system—be careful."

"Ah."

Lin Yue lit a cigarette with one hand, holding the Nue in his other hand, and quietly watched what these company dogs were going to do.

Once the car stopped on the mountain, Lin Yue turned off the headlights and sped away, disappearing into the surrounding weeds.

At that moment, the security personnel got out of the car and stood at the four corners. In the middle of the luxury car, Snowden was next to Emma, ​​and the female celebrity and her male companion were sitting opposite him.

Golden champagne swished in the glass, and Emma looked just like a docile kitten.

Snowton was pleased—that was the power of the company.

Emma opened the window, and surprisingly, she could still see stars on the horizon of the dawn sky over Dogtown, something she hadn't seen in a long time.

As Emma downed glass after glass of wine, she felt a little dizzy.

Snowton quickly grabbed Emma's waist, a cruel smile creeping onto his lips. "Is that recording device for Mewtwo turned on? She's drinking Cuban stuff, guaranteed to be effective—guess who sent it?"

Mewtwo Star revealed a crazy smile, "Is that Hanz? Holy crap, this is the most awesome Mewtwo of the year!"

Emma heard the foul language in her blurry ears, and a tear slid down her cheek.

Outside the car window, one of the security guards, positioned in four different directions, was suddenly grabbed from behind. A sharp cracking sound came from his spine, and he died.

Before the other four bodyguards could react, Lin Yue raised his gun and fired two shots, taking out the two security guards on his left and right.

The people inside the car, whose windows had been rolled down, naturally heard the deafening gunshots!

Just as the last security guard drew his gun, Lin Yue, who had rushed in quickly, had already grabbed his throat tightly!

With a forceful movement, Lin Yue shattered the man's throat into pieces, which Lin Yue casually tossed onto the hood of the car.

Bang!
The people sitting in the car felt it shake violently and panicked completely.

Snowden: "Fuck you, drive!"

Lin Yue smashed the car window with a punch, and another obese company representative couldn't squeeze through the gap between the two seats. He then ripped off the steering wheel, tossed it aside amidst the screams of the female celebrity, and smiled seemingly harmless, "What are you guys playing? Want me to join you?"

"My grass!"

Snowden raised his pistol and fired. Lin Yue tilted his head and said, "Pretty accurate!"

As they were speaking, a strong arm pulled out the Fuyutsuki Company representative who was trying to squeeze in front of them.

"what!!!"

The female celebrity kept screaming, and Lin Yue raised his gun and fired a shot.

"I'll teach you to yell."

Snowden trembled as he watched the blood spurting from the cabin. Before he could react, a hot gun barrel was pressed against his head.

"What do you want? I—"

Bang!
A cloud of blood mist drifted down with the mountain wind.

　I'm late in posting this; it took me a while to write it.

　　Because I caught a bad cold yesterday, I wore a mask today and my whole body ached as I finished writing this 10,000-word article. My eyes were blurry, so I spent a long time checking for typos.

　　Of course, I'm not taking a day off. It's just that my head sometimes spins, and I can't find the typos. If you see any wrong words or sentences, please mention them in the group or post a comment. I'll correct them all when I'm feeling better!
