Chapter 39 David'S Comedy Talent!

Arthur returned to his own little home in Santo Domingo, opened the door and walked in. Before he could say anything more, he heard David's pain again."Mom, you forgot to renew your subscription again, and the washing machine doesn't work anymore!"Arthur's mouth twitched, he took off his windbreaker, threw it on the sofa next to him, and came to David's side.He looked at the washing machine in front of him and shook his head.In this world of modular tools, almost everything costs money.To some extent, the landlords in Night City are much worse than Arthur's previous landlords.They wish you had to pay to breathe the air in this house."Dad, are you back?"David was stunned for a moment, then shouted.Arthur nodded, looked at the washing machine in front of him, and said to David: "Are you okay? After all, you have been studying at Arasaka Academy for so long, and you haven't learned any hacking skills?""Your Aunt Lucy was already a very powerful hacker when she was your age.""Needless to say, it's free to use the washing machine at home. If she uses the washing machine, the landlord has to pay her. Do you believe it?"David felt that his father must be mentally ill again.He believes that there is no need to pay. If you break into the ICE of the washing machine, you can use the washing machine for free.But to use the washing machine, the landlord still had to pay her money, which was a bit nonsense.David's face turned red from holding back. He studied business management and counter-intelligence at Arasaka Academy, doing intelligence, but not hacking. Is there a special course for this kind of thing?How can you just casually say that a man is bad?Arthur squatted down, looked at the washing machine in front of him, took out a screwdriver from the tool box at home, and was about to disassemble the washing machine in front of him into 8 pieces.Although he is not a hacker, as a mechanical master, he can physically solve ICE's problems.ICE is actually the firewall for all electronic devices in the world.Because the first network was blown up by a hacker who had his brains soaked in water and wanted to become a god, there were a large number of malicious AI and malicious programs in the network.Although the network monitoring company later used a new AI blackwall to isolate most viruses and malicious AI.However, there are still many viruses and malicious AIs inside the wall. There are many reasons why they can stay. Usually, it is because they are better hidden. Before the outbreak, network monitoring companies cannot find them.In order to deal with AI within these black walls, almost all devices have built-in firewalls.On the one hand, it is to prevent others from intruding from the outside, and on the other hand, it is to prevent special viruses from within the network from entering the device and causing economic losses.To achieve this, the firewall must have the function of automatic counterattack, which is ICE."My dear father, if you can solve this problem with a screwdriver, I'll eat it!"Listening to his grown-up son's sarcasm, Arthur wanted to give him a big mouth, and he would go to bed without fighting for a few hours."Are you trying to trick me into eating and drinking again?""It's just a washing machine. If you eat it, do I still have to wash the clothes myself?"Arthur couldn't help but complain, and without stopping, he quickly removed the upper cover of the washing machine, revealing the electronic version inside.In fact, this kind of thing is very simple to solve as long as you understand the principle."The important thing is not how much knowledge you have learned, but the extent to which you can apply it.""Washing machines like this are basically mass-customized by contracting companies outside. They just add a chip that can be connected to the Internet to query the system balance on their internal network.""If you pay and there is a balance, if he checks it, the power will be connected. If you don't pay and there is a balance, if he doesn't check, the power will not be connected.""So what do you think we should do at this time?"After Arthur finished speaking, he looked at David next to him.David is not a fool. His grades in the academy have always been among the best, even better than those students who have assistive devices.You must know that in 2076, rich people will be able to use learning aids, which will be more than 10 times faster than ordinary people.Being able to catch up and stay at the top of the rankings under such circumstances has proven David's ability, so of course he understood Arthur's logic."I think you should pay to help me customize a pair of steel teeth, and by the way, a steel stomach, and a pure steel pair for the esophagus.""Maybe I should also help you customize an iron chrysanthemum."Arthur said lightly, and then directly poked the two pins of the chip with the screwdriver in his hand.The next washing machine started rolling instantly and started the cleaning task.Arthur threw the screwdriver in his hand into David's hand and sat down on the sofa next to him.David held the screwdriver in his hand and scratched the back of his head. He couldn't figure out where his old father learned this skill.Isn't he a cyberpunk?Could it be that his excellent mind was inherited from his excellent old father?"Isn't this a little bad?"After all, David was on the side of order. He scratched the back of his head and looked at the washing machine, feeling a little embarrassed.After all, this kind of thing is just an ordinary system failure at a minor level.If we look at it more seriously, then Arthur is committing theft and stealing the company's property.Arthur, on the other hand, looked at David as if he were a fool. Good guy, why didn't he realize that David had a talent for comedy before?"David, listen to me.Drop out of Arasaka Academy.I'll sign you up for a cross talk class in Dragon Kingdom.Study hard.After you learn it, you might be able to become a comedy superstar or something.There's a cross talk class over there in Neon.He is a very good actor and I heard he makes a lot of money.""But are we stealing?"All the knowledge David learned in the academy was taught by the company, so of course he would analyze certain issues from the company's perspective as a matter of course.This is completely different from the way of thinking of cyberpunks like Arthur or ordinary residents of Night City.Arthur didn't say a word after hearing what the other party said. He laughed and couldn't help but pick up the water next to him and take a sip of it for himself."Nonsense, how can this be considered theft?""This is a war for the people to resist an unruly social system, and it is also a war against troubled times!"What Arthur said was so passionate that David scratched the back of his head and couldn't help but whisper: "So resisting the unruly social system means stealing other people's washing machines?"Arthur couldn't help but stood up immediately and hit David on the back of the head."Why are you so stubborn, kid? How about you wash the clothes by hand today and I turn off the washing machine?"David immediately showed a solemn and serious expression and said: "I volunteer to join this war and contribute the power of Weibo to the people of Night City."

Chapter 40 Mom Loves Me Again!

After some time, the family finished dinner and went to bed.Arthur was lying on the bed, thinking about what happened today and making a summary. He held Gloria in one hand and held her up and down with the other. Although he couldn't eat, it was good to have a hand addiction.Before he could think of this, Arthur couldn't help turning his head to look at David lying on the sofa, his eyes full of disgust.It's time to move out of Santo Domingo!However, the plan to make money has been initially decided. The suppressor will be sold on the black market among cyberpunks and ordinary people.The company still needs to be established. It will be sold first and then submitted for inspection. This is a routine operation in Night City.If big companies can do it, Arthur can do it too.Anyway, those insects in Night City are just like made of mud. It would be good if you don't trouble them. They will never come to trouble you.On the contrary, the Animal Gang may need to deal with it a little bit.After all, those stupid guys are stupid to begin with, and they still inject steroids into their bodies every day. After their bodies become strong, these stupid guys don't like to use their brains even more.Even harder to deal with than those lunatics from the Voodoo Gang.There is a long way to go.The more Arthur thought about it, the more irritated he became. Didn't he want to change his job and become a company dog? Why was it so troublesome? He turned his head and looked at Gloria lying next to him, then quietly leaned forward and said something in Gloria's ear.Gloria's face turned red instantly, and then she looked at David who was already asleep in the distance, covered herself with the quilt, and then there was a sound of a dragon roaring and oozing."hiss..."The following 2,000 words of paid content are omitted...It was early in the morning, and Arthur got up from the bed in a daze. Gloria almost ran away yesterday. After all, it was rain after a long drought, if Arthur hadn't controlled Gloria at the critical moment. Yeah, maybe it would be very embarrassing to stare at someone with big eyes and small eyes.Arthur thought he might need to wait a little longer, but Gloria looked at David with more and more disgust.David ate the bread in his hand with a confused face. Looking at his mother, he could feel the meaning in his mother's eyes.What's going on here? It's only been one night, why doesn't his mother love him anymore?Does that look mean disgust?No, mommy loves me again!Arthur stood by the window and looked at Night City, which had just woken up.For example, Arthur had just looked out the window when a trauma team's floating vehicle floated past Arthur's window at high speed.Arthur performed a so-called soul drift. The loudspeaker on the car was still screaming at the top of his lungs."This is the trauma team, setting out to rescue the target client..."In the distance, there was an aerial vehicle of the Terrorist Mobile Team, howling at the top of its lungs. Many cyber lunatics jumped out of the aerial vehicle and seemed to be cleaning something.There are also some people whose whole bodies are full of prosthetics walking through high-rise buildings, jumping from here to there, from there to here. I don't know, I thought they were failures.There were rumbling fires in the distance, and the sound of gunshots..."Good morning Night City..."With Stanlina's exaggerated howling coming from the radio, a new day in Night City begins."Night City is still so lively, no different from what it was more than ten years ago."Arthur shrugged, picked up the clothes next to him and put them on. He walked to the dining table, looked at the artificial bread on the table and scratched the back of his head.I ate real chicken yesterday, and today I have to eat cheap synthetic food from Night City. This kind of life is really making me scratch my head.After some time, the father and son went out together again.The corridors were filled with the sour smell of fresh vomit. In addition to the unknown liquid on the ground, there were also many black garbage bags placed in the corridors.Arthur was disgusted by what he saw, but while Arthur was disgusted by what he saw, others didn't find it disgusting, because some people just slept on the ground like this.Along the way, many people were wearing cheap Mewtwos on their heads and a cup underneath, and they were making random noises.No matter what era people come from, they have to admire the opening of Night City.As soon as he came downstairs, David looked at Arthur warily. He didn't want to use the switchblade to grab a car for him again and take him to school."Hey, hey, what's that look in your eyes? Am I, your father, the kind of unreliable person?"Arthur felt uncomfortable all over when David stared at him, and couldn't help but complain. David was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded.Arthur's mouth twitched, and he took out the keys to yesterday's motorcycle from his pocket, inserted a finger into the key ring and turned it."My friend just gave me a car yesterday. Let's go. I don't have to go to my friends from the Sixth Street Gang to borrow a car today. Isn't this really going to hurt their hearts? I think they are quite willing to help. We are like this Will they feel sad if they suddenly don't need their help?"After David saw the key, he breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard what happened later, he couldn't help complaining and said: "The people from the Sixth Street Gang are really unlucky for eight lifetimes when they meet you.Don't worry, they They will definitely not be sad, on the contrary they will be happy and we are living a normal life."Can you be unhappy? Although there are many vehicles in Night City, it doesn't cost much to buy a black car.But no one can bear to be robbed every day.What's more, they are gang members. If their car is robbed by others, it would be very shameless. The only thing they care about when hanging out is face, do you understand?David followed Arthur to the place where the motorcycle was parked last night.It seems that it is because the two-wheeled one is not worth stealing, or the model of the car given by the wanderer is too old, so even if it is left in broad daylight in Night City, a place full of five-star good citizens, No one stole it."Cool, is this Brennan Apollo?"As soon as David saw the car, he couldn't help but rushed forward and started stroking it with his hands.The design of this car is not elegant or avant-garde, nor does it have some fashionable high-end central controls.But so what, only those pretentious city folk would like those flashy things, and Apollo was not made for those people.This car is built for the wilderness.The powerful engine is enough to leave any Chaos Daohui team far behind.Arthur took out the key and started the Apollo, turned the throttle, and then glanced at David. David immediately came behind Arthur.It looked like he was extremely excited.Arthur took out a small helmet from the box next to him and handed it to David.This is not Scorpion's car in the original book, but another car from the Rangers group.It must be a gift brought from some dead wanderer tribe.So this car is also equipped with an auxiliary fuel tank and a reserve tank.

Chapter 41 Please Build Dormitories For The Safety Of Students!

This is also the reason why Panam asked V to help her get the vehicle back in the original work.The corner of David's mouth twitched, he touched the back of his head and said, "Dad, maybe I should become a man like the wind like you."Arthur glanced at him, and then put the helmet directly on David's head without caring.Although this car is not a particularly precious gift, for the homeless people, giving the car away means the greatest sincerity.Because for homeless people, cars are everything to them.Losing your car is equivalent to losing your arms, losing your legs, and losing everything about you."The best I can do if I get thrown away is to stand up again and chop all those bastards clean. If you get thrown away, you can live to see what color your brain is."There are thousands of journeys, and safety is the first priority. If driving is irregular, loved ones will burst into tears.In an environment like Night City's five-star good citizen environment, a vehicle evading NCPD pursuit may suddenly pop up from somewhere at any time.If something really happened, this big boy of mine would probably have to go directly to see the King of Hell, and he would not even live to see the day of passionate sex with Adam Hammer.Soon the two of them drove their motorcycles to the entrance of Arasaka Academy. Arthur found a place, a van, and pulled out the key as soon as it stopped and threw it to David.Arthur actually doesn't like motorcycles that much. Although the wind blowing on his cheeks feels good, Arthur still prefers four-wheeled ones.The main reason is that the two wheels don't carry enough equipment. In the future, his tasks will become more and more troublesome, and he will also need more and more equipment.Therefore, he needs an iron-clad car with a relatively large capacity and a high enough level of armor protection that can adapt to various terrains.Rather than a meat-covered iron."Why?"David's subconscious result was that he looked at Arthur with some doubts, and suddenly a premonition appeared in his heart, with an expression of surprise on his face.Arthur nodded and said with a smile: "I gave it to you. It's a belated birthday gift for so many years. Don't blow it up. This is a testimony of friendship given to me by the wanderers."David immediately nodded in surprise and put the key in his hand into his waistband.At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing glasses was preparing to walk towards the inside of Arasaka Academy. After seeing David again, he paused for a moment, turned around and walked in the direction of David."Hello?"When Arthur was about to say a few more words to David, he heard the middle-aged man's voice and looked at him with some confusion.That's right, he looks like a dog, and he wears a pair of glasses. He looks polite, and he is also wearing a suit with the Arasaka logo."Hello, didn't know who you were?""Ah, I am the principal of Arasaka Academy. Are you David's father?"The attitude is unusually respectful, but there is an expression of pride on his face. This combination of contradictions makes it clear that he is the Neon Man at a glance."That's right, that's right. I have been outside for treatment before, but I have just returned to Night City.""So that's it. Actually, I want to discuss with you the issue of compensation for David's last sabotage incident."Arthur touched his chin and then remembered that this incident seemed to have happened before he came back. David seemed to have used the virus created by the doctor with the second knife to destroy the Mewtwo equipment in Arasaka Academy. ."Well, I happen to have some issues with David that I want to discuss with your college. This is not the place to talk. You see..."The principal looked at the surrounding environment, and finally said with a very apologetic expression: "It's the code plug. It's because I didn't treat you well. Please come here."Arthur looked at David and waved towards David, then followed the principal towards the principal's office.David scratched the back of his head, but he didn't care. Anyway, he was so cheap, and his father could always solve some seemingly complicated problems from unexpected angles.If he really can't survive in Arasaka Academy, David can follow his cheap dad into cyberpunk.Compared to the company, David feels that he is more suitable for the knife-edge life of cyberpunk.The thoughts of a child are actually understandable.When people go to war as a child, they always have the illusion that others will die but not themselves.It is actually very simple to break this illusion. You only need to be seriously injured once, and your hands will tremble uncontrollably. When the pain makes you want to die immediately, this illusion will disappear immediately.After a while, Arthur followed the principal to his office.Although they know how to be polite and not careless, Neon people do a great job of being polite on the surface.The other party even prepared a cup of tea for Arthur. You should know that this is pure natural tea.Arthur took a cup of tea and took a sip. He couldn't help but sigh and said, "Ah~ I haven't tasted this taste for a while. The tea drinks sold in Night City are simply worse than pot water. "In fact, Arthur was wrong about this. The reason why the principal was so polite to him was purely because Arthur was filled with implants and he didn't look like a poor man.When Gloria came to the principal's office to talk about something, the principal didn't even pour her a glass of water."As long as you like it, this is tea brought specially from Neon Mainland. I don't have much here."Arthur nodded. One advantage of being a corporate dog is that he has access to a large number of resources. This is something that ordinary people cannot access anyway, even cyberpunks."Actually, I came here this time to discuss with the principal that your school does not have accommodation."The principal was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Is it necessary to stay in Night City?Thanks to public transportation, even if you live in the Badlands, it only takes an hour to get to school.Moreover, every inch of land in the city center is at a premium. If only a few pieces of land could be saved to build dormitories, it would be a huge amount of money."Now the gangs in Night City are fighting and crime is rampant. If nothing else happens, this situation will only get worse. The gang of insects in Night City will definitely not be able to deal with this kind of problem."Arthur continued, and the principal nodded. He quite agreed with this point.Even when he goes out, he can sometimes see several people shooting randomly on the street, looking like cybermaniacs."So for the safety of students, we should build dormitories within the school for them to live in, and send them back to their homes during the holidays every week. This will make everyone feel more at ease and secure. "

Chapter 42 Everything Is For The Children!

"You don't know anything about this area of ​​Night City. Every inch of land is precious. The college itself cannot make ends meet. How can there be funds to build dormitories?"After patiently listening to Arthur's words, the principal refused without hesitation.Although things are indeed as Arthur said, what does this have to do with the academy?If a student dies, he or she dies. Anyway, they have already paid enough. If one person has less tuition to pay, Arasaka Academy will make a profit.Going through all the trouble to build dormitories is of no benefit to Arasaka Academy. The company's work is so unprofitable that it can't be done early.Arthur had long known that the principal would say this. He picked up the tea cup and took another sip of tea. He said with a smile: "The principal has stayed in this position and hasn't moved for a long time, right?"When the principal heard this, he nodded hesitantly.To be honest, Arasaka Academy itself is a retirement place within the Arasaka Group.Although his status seems to be extremely noble, after all, he teaches and educates people. Many young masters within the Arasaka Group studied at Arasaka Academy.But this is not actually the case. The teachers in Arasaka Academy are intelligent AIs, because AIs can teach better than humans.And power comes from people. Apart from those students, there are only a few cleaners in the entire Arasaka Academy, and even the cleaners will soon be replaced by cleaning robots.How can we have rights without people? Can flexing your muscles all day long in front of a group of robots without their own brains be considered power?"To be honest, it's true. Maybe it's because my ability doesn't meet the company's promotion standards."The principal couldn't help but feel a little distressed. In fact, he shouldn't say these words to a stranger. He didn't even know Arthur's name.But Arthur's words seemed to seduce the principal like magic, and he spoke out the troubles in his heart."After all, the company is a place where profit is the priority. If you, principal, can't perform well, of course you won't be able to get promoted.""There was no opportunity before, but now there is an opportunity, and the opportunity is right in front of you. It depends on you, principal, whether you can seize it or not?"Arthur picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then immediately threw out his bait, hoping that the fish, which had not enjoyed power for a long time, would quickly take the bait.As a cyberpunk who hangs out on the street, Arthur feels that this way of speaking is so disgusting that he almost makes himself sick."You mean the dormitory?"The principal's eyes lit up, and then he became a little confused.Arthur nodded immediately, and then said: "Our dormitory must be designed by the best designer. He can provide him with everything from elevator entrances to sky gardens to high-altitude swimming pools.""All the equipment inside is top-notch for me.""How much do you charge for living in this dormitory for a semester? All the equipment in this school are from Arasaka. The elevators, sky gardens and the ones used by the designers are all from Arasaka. How much can be used? You know the money yourself.""After the dormitory is built, we will manage it in a fully closed manner. This way, everyone will always have to eat. Let's build a big canteen and a supermarket. The students in this school will not be able to eat, drink, or have sex, but they will all spend their money here?""Of course, for the food safety of students, the food in our school is specially purchased, so it is reasonable for it to be a little more expensive than outside."The principal's eyes became brighter the more he listened.He seemed to see a road to the sky, slowly unfolding in front of him.As long as he accomplishes this, he will definitely climb out of Arasaka Academy, a place of retirement, and return to the center of power.Even if you can't climb out, I'm afraid there will be no shortage of rewards from above.Why are you saying that there are many children of employees who have been banned from working at Arasaka Academy?What does this have to do with our Arasaka Academy?Our Arasaka Academy exists independently from other companies in Arasaka and we also want to make money.What's more, this is for the safety of the students. Why do you say that you can't afford the tuition? It's not too much to get a loan from the bank based on the qualifications of the company's employees, right?When the principal thought of this, he immediately clapped his hand hard and stood up. He held Arthur's hand and shook it up and down."Sir, your suggestion is absolutely right. For the safety of the students, we do need to conduct closed management.""This is all for the sake of the children!"Arthur was also smiling, and nodded in response: "Sure enough, you are a person with a lot of talents in the world, and you have a better understanding of the overall situation."As the saying goes, repay a favor with a favor.After thinking for a moment, the principal immediately said with a smile: "David is a good boy.He was just an unintentional teacher who destroyed the company's Mewtwo equipment before.As the saying goes, it is a crime to punish without teaching.I learned from Mr.'s words I felt David's deep apology for this, and I decided to waive David's compensation for the Mewtwo equipment!"Arthur waved his hand immediately, and then said with a smile: "How can this make it difficult for you, principal? Well, I happen to be a mechanical expert too. I'll go over later and see if I can help fix it.""It's just that you know, principal, that our family's situation is actually not particularly good, so I don't know about the accommodation fee..."The principal originally thought that Arthur was going to make some more exorbitant demands, but he didn't expect that it was just the accommodation fee. It was not exciting, and it didn't matter if he promised to go out."This is easy to say. Our college receives donations from people from all walks of life every year. I think David is a very suitable child to be donated!"The principal said it was worthy of a donation, but even if it was not worthy of a donation, it was still worthy of a donation. Maybe you could come to Arasaka Academy and still have money to get it, without having to pay any tuition fees."Thank you very much. Then let's get down to business first?"Arthur smiled and asked to repair the Mewtwo equipment. The principal happily led Arthur towards the computer room that David had damaged before.In fact, the principal did not believe that Arthur had such mechanical repair methods.Are you kidding me? If he is really a mechanical expert, he can't even afford Arasaka's compensation if he messes up to this point?But it doesn't matter. If the principal says it's fixed, then it's fixed. This is just a process.It's just that it broke after it was repaired. So this is a problem with the equipment itself. The college should pay for the repair. How can we put the blame on the parents of the students?Arthur soon followed the principal and arrived at the previous computer room. Due to equipment damage, David's class had moved to another room for class.This kind of room is actually modular in design, and all rooms are basically the same.Learning through Chaomeng can greatly improve learning efficiency.

Chapter 43 Are You Willing To Fight For The Arasaka Group For The Rest Of Your Life?

This is also the reason why many people risk their lives to send people to Arasaka Academy, because it has the most top-notch learning equipment.After the principal sent Arthur to the computer room, he stayed for a moment and then left quickly.Arthur stayed in the computer room. Arthur touched his chin and looked around at the surrounding environment."Well, let me see, it turns out that's what it is. The physical damage can be repaired, but the virus in the system requires foreign aid."Arthur directly disassembled the control panel in the green classroom. After sorting it out a few times, he immediately discovered the problem. After casually shorting the line, the entire green classroom was turned on instantly.Although this thing is strictly electronic, the more high-end the device, the more protection it has.In fact, most machines have a mechanism for abandoning the car to save the car. David only overloaded the system and triggered the protection mechanism, so it is very simple to repair.It's just that the projections in the space are all gibberish. It's obvious that the doctor's virus didn't work. On the contrary, it made the latest version of Green Classroom's program a mess, like a smelly piece of dog shit."Lucy, I have a small job and I need your help. Help me kill a poisonous person."Lucy, who received Arthur's call over there, looked impatient, but was stunned when she heard Arthur say that it was just a poison.No, Arthur has changed his gender?Now I no longer take jobs related to big companies, nor do I take jobs that are super troublesome, and suddenly I just deal with these small jobs.As long as she didn't come into contact with those super big companies and big troubles, Lucy was still willing to help Arthur."It's really troublesome to connect your personal link to the terminal...let me see...""What the hell... Arthur, I'm so unlucky to meet you. You're actually in Arasaka Academy, and you're actually helping Arasaka!""You want me to help disinfect the green classroom in Arasaka Academy?""It's not like you don't know me..."Arthur was frightened when he heard this, shrugged and immediately interrupted: "Don't say that, it's not that dangerous.The principal personally invited me to come here to kill viruses.There is no network monitor.I just help kill some small poisons.In terms of physics, I have already taken care of the damage, but you still need to do the anti-virus on the program.""...Get it, Arthur knows you. I've been so unlucky for eight lifetimes! When can you die?""That's not true. As the saying goes, good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. Huang Bansaburo has lived for more than 100 years. I guess he still has at least 60 years to live, right?""By the way, get me a little virus. The requirement is that it can automatically identify the identity of a man named Masaru Tanaka in the system. When he connects to the system, directly remove his uniform and leave him naked. "After Arthur thought for a moment, he added."By the way, it needs to be a random one. It definitely happens the first time, and then it lurks, and then it happens every three or four days every four or five days. It won't be more than a week at the latest, and it will happen again to him, completely naked. "Lucy was completely speechless after hearing this and hung up the phone directly. Arthur nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the extra document in his mailbox and the classroom that had returned to normal.To be honest, Arthur actually wanted to kill the guy named Tanaka Katsuo directly at first.But things don't work like this. In Night City, you can indeed kill anyone who is unhappy. For example, Arasaka Yorinobu saw that his father was very unhappy, so he strangled Saburo Arasaka to death and staged a scene. The hall is full of filial piety.But adults do things differently from children. When adults do things, they must bear the consequences.We had just finished repairing the green classroom, but then a problem arose. Who did it if it wasn't you?This level is just right now. At most, it's just that Arthur is not good at studying and has not repaired all the greenery systems.It is impossible for the father behind Tanaka Katsuo to directly attack Arthur.The company must put profit first in everything it does. Arthur's information is not a secret in Night City, so you can naturally find it if you want to.So what Arthur wants is this effect, the result that you can't kill me if you don't like it.And after this happened, Tanaka Katsuo will definitely have to take a break from school for a while. In the original work, he even said that he would be ashamed if he didn't wear a school uniform and would not dare to come to school.Not to mention this kind of public nudity, it is a pity that a young mind will soon be cast with a shadow that will not go away for life.Arthur only hopes that Tanaka Katsuo's capital can be stronger, otherwise he will become a legend of Arasaka Academy. Well, whether the capital is strong or not, he will become a legend.At this moment, the lights in the green classroom suddenly brightened, and then a virtual projection appeared in the center.After looking around the virtual projection, he focused his attention on Arthur."You must be Mr. Arthur, right? Your skills are truly unparalleled. It only takes a short time to sort out and repair such a complex system."This is the intelligent AI in Arasaka Academy and the teacher in Arasaka Academy."According to the information in the system, it seems that your family is not wealthy. I wonder if you have the idea of ​​​​working for the Arasaka Group for the rest of your life?"Arthur: "..."He is crazy to join the Arasaka Group and fight for the Arasaka Group for the rest of his life.Wouldn't it be better to be your own boss? Why do you want to be someone else's lackey?"Sorry, I have no intention of joining the Arasaka Group. By the way, do you know Delamain?"Arthur is actually quite curious about Night City. Can these AIs communicate with each other like humans?If we can communicate with each other, can we do something meaningful?The AI ​​paused for a second, and finally said in confusion: "I don't know Mr. Draman, the AI ​​from the Draman Taxi Company, and I think that if we could meet, we should be able to have a good chat. "Arthur scratched the back of his head, then waved his hand and said, "That's it, I'll introduce you to Lao De later."With that, Arthur opened the door to the classroom, and AI shouted from behind: "Please consider joining the Arasaka Group. We will definitely be able to provide you with the most generous treatment on the market."The most generous treatment? What is the most generous treatment, is to provide double the amount of functional drinks? Or serve double the amount of coffee?Workers in Night City are simply no better than dogs.This sentence is not an exaggeration, because in the original world, if Arthur was not capable enough, the company would fire him.But if he is not capable enough in the company of Night City, the company will want him to buy a set of prosthetics. If you have no money, the company will be happy to provide you with a loan from a cooperative unit.

Chapter 44 Psychic Cabin!

As for whether he can go to work after spending money to buy a prosthetic body, it depends on the conscience of the Night City boss.However, in order to buy the Sword of the Lake Girl quickly, usually those who took out loans would be kicked out of the company soon.Anyway, the company is just trying to earn that intermediary fee. As for whether you can't repay the loan, that's your own business.Not long after Arthur left Arasaka College, in the principal's office, Marcus was quickly drafting a plan for the construction of Arasaka College dormitories."Sir, the gentleman named Arthur has left. The green classroom has been completely repaired by him before he left."Marcus scratched the back of his head and said: "That shouldn't be the case. Teacher Luyin is the latest technology of the Arasaka Group. Even the top mechanical talents from the military technology side have to be familiar with it for a day or two even if they have the drawings. time.""How can everything be solved within thirty or forty minutes? If the other party knows so much about this kind of thing, then David's family shouldn't be so poor.""Forget it, remember to record this and enter it into my memo. I may use it in the future."Marcus had no intention of reporting the incident.No joke, the fights within the company are much more serious than those between cyberpunks.After all, most cyberpunks are relatively simple-minded. If they fight each other and kill each other, it will be over.However, in the company, due to the explicit regulations, it is impossible for everyone to directly go to the battlefield to fight, so they spend more time calculating against each other.The darkest and most disgusting things you can imagine happen inside the company.It's too late to hold on to a baby, and you might be able to use it some time. Of course, it doesn't matter whether you use it or not. What's important is that others don't use it.After some time Arthur came to Little Chinatown.He planned to go to Lao Wei to get some supplies and then create a prototype. Originally, Arthur might need to rely on the help of some mechanical experts, but now there is no need. He is a mechanical expert himself.The original form is very important, the purpose is to let some people see that this thing is indeed effective, after all, there is no basis for words.In Night City, if you want to die, you can try to bring up the word trust.Especially those involving huge interests.Arthur looked up at where he was and scratched the back of his head. This location is Misty's psychic hut. I really don't understand how this kind of hut makes money in the year 2076?Sure enough, no matter what era you are in, it is easy to make money by pretending to be a ghost.Arthur opened the door and walked in. As soon as he entered, he smelled a scent that seriously exceeded the PM2.5 standard.Although talking about PM2.5 in Night City is childish, after all, the air pollution in Night City is worse than your mother calling you by your first name.There are incense sticks everywhere and some strange hangings hanging on the walls.The dim lighting adds a sense of mystery to this store.Oh, by the way, please don't forget this psychic hut, the most important specialty, the separation chip of the Book of the Dead."Hi, you seem a little anxious?"Just as Arthur was lighting up the shop, Misty with afro hair walked from the side, her voice was very brisk and had a soothing power.I have to say that there is a reason why Misty's business is better than Victor's.Isn't it more meaningful for an intimate young lady to soothe one's soul than to listen to an old antique preaching to oneself?"Ah, I'm not here to visit the psychic hut, but to see Lao Wei."Arthur was startled and turned to look at Misty.Why does this little girl make no sound when she walks? Could she be a ghost?Arthur suddenly remembered that this cyberpunk world seemed to be filled with a strange mysterious power.The reason why I say yes seems to be because it does not present an intuitive way of expression, but is hidden behind the main line.For example, the old monk who collects random money on the street to teach people to meditate, or Misty's prophecy.Thinking of this, Arthur couldn't help but look Misty up and down. She didn't have any implants on her body, she wasn't very beautiful, and she was dressed in a Gothic style."You can go to the basement from the back, but Lao Wei should be busy now. Maybe you can wait here. Maybe I can do some divination for you?"Misty pointed to the back door of her shop, and then suggested to Arthur.Arthur scratched the back of his head. Sure enough, there was a reason for people's good business. Arthur had never encountered this method of shopping guide in a small shop on the street.Usually the owner of the street shop will say: "Bleach your ****"Or they say: "Are you going to buy it or not? If you don't buy it, get out of here or something like that."Even people like Lao Wei have beaten their guests to the point of being unable to get up more than once.It can only be said that the people of Night City are simple and honest.Arthur shook his head and directly rejected Misty's invitation and said: "Thank you, but no need. I have a lot of things to do today and may be very busy. If I have time next time, I will definitely experience your divination."Misty touched her chin and looked at Arthur and said, "Don't you believe in divination?"Even a fool can hear the rejection in Arthur's words, so Arthur thinks that Misty should be collecting customer feedback now and waiting for the next move.Sure enough, this kind of business talent should be placed in a larger place, maybe let her help me sell chips?Arthur got rid of the thoughts in his mind, and then said: "It's just that I don't like it.The pleasure of life is the impermanence of life, isn't it? It's very tiring to be manipulated like a puppet by big companies now, but after seeing the future, It feels like I am being controlled by another, bigger hand again, which is really unhappy.""Although it sounds stupid, sometimes I really think that the less you know, the happier people will be, and the more you know, the more miserable you will be."Misty thought for a moment before replying, "Interesting point, I'll note it."Arthur smiled, then without saying anything else, he went directly to Lao Wei's basement prosthetic clinic through the back door.As soon as I entered, I heard screams one after another. For a moment, Arthur or even an old Wei got a pig back from somewhere."Mamma Mia, Hombre (man), be gentle, be gentle, I feel like my hands are going to break!""Your hand was already broken! If you weren't lucky, your arm would have been replaced with an iron one!""Hombre, is it true? I've wanted a gorilla arm for a long time!""That thing doesn't exist. I have stuff here from decades ago. How about Johnny Silverhand's same model?""Then I'd better use my own!"
