Case 006 - I love brothels, boys!

Operation and rehab have been successful. All my implants and cyberware are functioning great. Moreover, Jorg have found it surprising how little problems there were with me during operation and rehab. Very little or almost no signs of rejection even expected cases of inflammation have been at very low. Medics and techies at hospital have become anxious from that news. They started running checks and deep diagnostics. I have really got scared for a bit that now I will become lab rat and end up locked in labs.

However, to my great relief was quite simple. I had very clean body and DNA which was the main reason for such great results. In Cyberpunk 2077 world there have been a number of wars with use of biological, chemical and nuclear warfare. This had a very big impact on environment which then lead to a lot of health related issues. People's DNA had a lot of junk and problems accumulated over the years which caused a lot of trouble and only in the last 20-30 years governments, corps and others started solving that problem. Situation with DNA improved but still there is a lot to do to bring back to 20th century level. I was amongst those lucky few with very pure DNA so my body was in much greater shape. Only truly influential and rich people can have that while majority had to either have to go through DNA modding at very early stage of life, foetus, or DNA treatment and therapies till they die or as long as they can afford it.

In the end I was able to leave hospital labs and go back to rehab only after providing samples of blood, bone marrow and other parts of me, including even semen. Shit, I can actually make money by selling it!

Fuck, no way I am gonna become breeding bull. This is fucking Jorg's brainwashing of Way of A Scrooge again. I should have requested replacement. Sigh, whatever, now let's just finish rehab today is final day of hormonal course for strength enhancement. Then I can start training with my new abilities.

When I had my first shot I wondered whether I end up being hulking pile of muscles like Animals. Jorg just laughed at that saying that Animals use shit they call "Juice" due to lack of brains and machinery to make safe and effective drugs. They inject everything that helps to grow muscles and become stronger without thinking about side effects. Mine is not so good at making me strong as their "Juice" but it doesn't have any bad side effects and if there will be any they can be easily treated. He has told me that some Animals purchase stuff from Trauma Team instead of trying some homebrew crap made by their alchemists.

Jorg even joked calling that hormonal treatment second youth. This is due to weird libido and lots and lots of acne appearing during it. Yeah, feel the teenage power and urge to reproduce, for few days my face looked like Moon and Mars combined, lots of craters and redness. But finally it was over and now I can use my new toys.

My reaction and strength really improved great deal. I could aim, run and do everything else faster than before. But my biggest wow moment when I used Kerenzikov, things felt really different. Everything seemed to be stuck in jelly and only I could move freely. I then tried to use it with Reflex Tuner and that was really different thing. I have felt extreme control over my body even at high speeds.

I started experimenting further with and it was great except for few moments when I similar to Naruto's shunshin training end up smacking few times at corners, doors and walls. But even that turned to good since I not only learned how to use reflex boosting implants properly but also checked how Pain Editor helps me to mitigate the pain. Except for almost unnoticeable numbness in broken nose I didn't feel any pain so I guess it works well. Not going to get shot or stabbed for testing it and durability of Subdermal Armour, I trust the advertisement on Net, hehe.

Today is my first day back at work after upgrading. My replacement got back to his team so now I can be back at working with my team. Jorg kept them aware of my progress so I didn't need to tell them everything at meeting.

"Ha, Markus I see you have taken company's emphasize on rapid response by heart. Jorg showed me your testing and training videos. Really good performance. Now you are on par with out flyboys for speed of reaction except that I can beat the shit out of you on training ground without worrying to break too many of your bones." - Ron greeted me.

"Glad you are back. Your replacement was quite annoying and showed poor performance." - always calm Sam smiled at me and waved his hand.

"Was it that bad?" - I chuckled.

"Oh you can't imagine. This is too dangerous. That is not according to protocols. Blah blah." - wow, if even Sam says so guy must have been very boring or straight and strict as if he had a stick shoved up his ass.

"Yeah, shit happens. But now I am back so cheer up."

Then I exchanged greeting with Alex and Rene.

"So you must have very good coordination and reaction time. Wanna try riding our birdie?"

"I only do drunk piloting so thank you guys but no."

They just laughed at my reply. We have started standard check procedure before going for shift. When we heard Jorg running towards us and dispatcher telling us to take off immedaitly and evacuate a client.

"That's one of my favourite fishing spots!" - Jorg said with big smile.

"Wtf? Jorg I just checked that place and it is a brothel."- I wondered after looking at info about our destination point.

"I love brothels, boys! Easy money and not too much hassle. Clients usually drunk, intoxicated or have some bruises. Not gunshot wounds or bleedings. Even if it is netrunner attack client is either already dead with brains fried or just have some implants offline and needed simple reboot and maintenance." - Jorg explained his happiness.

"Phew, I really got worried about you, Jorg. You are the last person I expect to pay for sex. You are such a greedy bastard that will stick with masturbation rather than paying a hooker. Moreover, I will not be surprised that you will try to charge them instead." - I commented trying to keep stone face.

"Hahah, actually I like your last point. Let me call some of my exes, I think they owe me quite a sum." - Jorg replied.

"Alright, now get serious. I just got report from our tracking cyberware. Client got a gun shot wound." - Ron told us after finishing reading last report from dispatcher.

"Fuck" - everyone replied. Someone in my previous world said that real war is similar to brothel in fire. Now we are going to brothel that can end up in fire which means it can become a war zone.

We got serious and started getting extra ammo and equipment. We will probably have to evacuate with a firefight.

When aerodyne landed next to the entrance we jumped down prepared for everything. But everything seemed calm. I have checked everything worried that this maybe a trap but even my gut feeling said nothing.

Brothel doors have opened and we saw a manager aka pimp waving at us.

"I go and check what is going on. Be ready for anything" - I muttered in microphone and approached him.

"You must be coming after one of our guests! Please follow me! She needs help! Hurry!" - he said with clear panic on his face. But better be safe than sorry.

I grabbed him by the neck and then used as a meat shield.

"Shut up. Just lead us to client. IF you try doing something funny I will crash your throat. Got that?" - I said to him.

He almost shitted himself and couldn't utter a word.

"Just nod if you have understood me" - I said still holding him as a meat shield.

He nodded. I give a sign to other team members follow me. Our appearance in a brothel caused some commotion but nobody interferred. Good.

When we reached the client's room I saw a strange picture. Lady in dominatrix suit with blood on it and a another older madam with a bleeding gun shot wound in a mouth. Readings say she is alive just unconcious but tracker considered it dangerous since bullet passed not too far from a wound.

"Jorg come in. We got our client. Run checks and prepare to move out. Markus and I will find out what happened and keep perimeter clear." - Ron ordered and everyone started doing their part.

"Tell us what happened. And don't try to lie. Otherwise....you know what may happen." - Ron turned on his helmet flashlights and looked at dominatrix.

"Shee....She....took out a gun and asked me to play domination game with her. I did as she told me and we started our....game. But one moment she grabbed my hand asking to shove it further in her mouth. Then she grabbed a gun but she pressed my finger and gun fired! I am innocent. I didn't want this to happen today! Please!" - in the end she started crying.

"Jorg, you have heard it. Does the story match?"

"Yeah, I have found traces of saliva on a gun. Also Sam checked cameras and it comatrix is innocent. It is client's fault. We are ready for evac. Wound is non dangerous. Client is just unconscious due to pain shock and stress." - Jorg replied and I sighed in relief.

We got bac to aerodyne and took off leaving a brothel behind.

"You see guys! I was right. Easy money and little workload. I love brothels!" - Jorg said in aerodyne and everyone just nodded at that.

Seems today is calm day for our team but oh boy I have been ready to get some grey hair on ass.
