Come to the Braindance recording studio in the basement of Lizzie's Bar.
This place is full of pipes and computers, like some kind of hacker studio, but at least it is quieter than the top, and Bai Rui breathed a sigh of relief.
Evelyn and Judy were already waiting for them in the Braindance Room.
The Braindance Room is Judy's territory. She is an excellent BD editor, responsible for editing the recorded BD original films into BD finished films that can stimulate the vision and brain nerves.
In this way, as long as you spend a few hundred dollars on the shelf, you can buy a great BD movie, go home, lie on the sofa, put on the BD Ring, and enter the virtual world for endless fun. Just make sure there is no one at home who wants to strangle you. People immersed in the BD have a very weak perception of the real surrounding situation.
But in addition to being sold as an intracranial porn film, BD's actually has many practical functions, such as candid photography and secret filming... Later, some interested people can get a lot of useful information from it by exploring the original unedited film.
For example, this one that Evelyn secretly recorded herself.
Evelyn is a socialite in Genting, and also the mistress hired by Arasaka Yorinobu, the son of Arasaka Corporation in the Blue Building. As a client who wants to steal the relic chip in Yorinobu's hand, she personally goes to the battle to get first-hand information for V and the others - a real-time BD of Yorinobu's room in the Konpeki Plaza.
The plot after that is no different. V lies on the operating chair, exploring the BD recorded by Evelyn, and gets a lot of information, including the storage location of the most important relic chip, as well as the room surveillance, weapon deployment, and Yorinobu's captain of the guard - Adam Smasher, who has been transformed into a mechanical machine with only half a brain left.
After getting all the information she wanted, V quit the BD and returned to the real world.
"Did you get everything you wanted?" Judy asked, leaning on her hand while sitting behind her computer desk.
"I got it. Thanks, Judy." V, who had just quit the BD, was still uncomfortable and rubbed her forehead to relax. "I got it all. See you later, T-BUG."
"It's been a pleasure working with you. See you later." The person who was remotely connected by V to study the bug of BD also went offline.
"I erased the cache and your data. It's like you've never been there." Judy stood up and walked to V and took off the BD ring on V's head.
"Keep it and put it on Evelyn's account."
"This is a mobile device for processing BD. I've also uploaded your calibration configuration." Judy folded her hands and explained to V, a mercenary who didn't understand high-tech. "Although it's not as complicated as mine, it should be enough for you."
"And she cleared herself of any connection at the same time. How smart." V sneered. She obviously knew that Judy was not so kind. She left the BD Ring with her so that she could distance herself from the BD Master.
"Speaking of cleaning it up, do you know what I think?" Judy has been in a low mood since just now, and now her face is even more solemn.
"We are all dead." Judy said each word, like a warning or a prophecy.
"This video is indeed very useful to us, Judy. the BD has been a huge help." V obviously couldn't understand why Judy was so pessimistic.
"This BD will kill all of us. I'm not kidding." Judy turned around and spread her hands in worry. "If Arasaka finds this BD, you and I will be dead."
"Judy... don't be afraid. No one will know." Evelyn, as a client, was admonishing her best friend.
But Bai Rui said Evelyn was just bragging.
How come Bai Rui doesn't know the details of this mission?
This mission was full of surprises and variables from the very beginning.
Evelyn Parker was not the client of this mission at all. In fact, she was also being instructed by someone.
The Voodoo Boys of Pacifica - a Haitian gang that was skilled in hacking and extremely xenophobic. They commissioned Evelyn to get the BD in the Konpeki Plaza, and that was all.
The reason is simply that Arasaka Yorinobu likes to ring Evelyn's clock.
However, Evelyn Parker, the socialite of Genting, had her own ideas after learning the secret of the relic chip. She wanted to get rid of the Voodoo Boys and steal the precious property of Arasaka Company - the relic chip - by herself, and then sell it to a company like Militech, which is hostile to Arasaka, to make a fortune.
Not to mention the boldness of this plan, Evelyn, who had no idea about the street rules, acted recklessly when handling this mission. Not only did she meet V in violation of the principle that mercenaries and clients should not meet directly, but she also tried to persuade V to get rid of the middleman DeShawn and contact them directly.
That is to say, this old guy DeShawn had just returned to Night City in disgrace and was in desperate need of money, so he accepted such an unclear commission. The final result, of course, was the death of a large number of people.
Her good brother Jack was seriously injured and died, T-BUG also died, DeShawn killed V, and he was shot in the head by Saburo Arasaka's bodyguard who came to investigate.
Evelyn herself had her chip burned by the Voodoo Boys and was sold to shoot Black BD. If it weren't for V's timely rescue, she would have become a pile of minced meat thrown into the trash can. However, she ended her life in the shadows in the end.
Therefore, Bai Rui looked down on Evelyn, a greedy woman who wanted to swallow an elephant. In Night City, life might be difficult whether you are a good person or a bad person, but fools die the fastest, and Evelyn is such a fool who overestimates herself.
"...If you take this path, Night City will always be the winner. You must be careful." Judy warned her bestie seriously.
"Of course, I will be careful." Evelyn replied, then turned and walked out the door. "We'll talk about it later."
As soon as she heard Evelyn's relaxed tone, she knew that the other party didn't take it to heart at all, and Judy, who was worried for nothing, could only sigh.
"V, come here." Evelyn at the door called V out.
Unable to stop her best friend from falling into the abyss, Judy sat depressedly in her chair, staring at the data jumping on the computer.
"Hi, how are you?" Bai Rui walked forward and greeted quietly.
"Oh, it's you, hello." Seeing Bai Rui approaching, Judy came back to her senses and her eyes lit up. "My name is Judy, what's yours?"
"Um, my name is Bai Rui." Bai Rui felt a little strange. Judy was quite enthusiastic, which was not what she expected. She thought Judy was the kind of person who was difficult to get along with at first. Of course, this impression came from the game.
It seems that there are still some differences between the game and reality, Bai Rui nodded and thought.
"Bai Rui, what a nice name..." Judy leaned back in the recliner, biting her fingers with her red lips. She looked at Berry from head to toe with interest and nodded with satisfaction in her heart.
It's her dish.
Bai Rui was still racking her brains to think of the topic.
Although I have recommended Judy several times in the game, this is the first time I have met Judy in real life. For a moment, I couldn't think of any topic to warm up the atmosphere.
You can't just say, hey, I really like your tattoo, can I see the little black cat?
She will definitely be beaten up, Bai Rui nodded confidently.
But Bai Rui didn't know that maybe Judy didn't mind?
Bai Rui actually doesn't know Judy very well, even though she is the wife of female V in the game. Of course, this lack of understanding only applies to the two sexes.
Judy has always been called "wife" by players who play female V, but have you ever thought about the possibility that the players are actually the wife in Judy's eyes?
Who is Judy? She is a legendary true aluminum bronze who completed the aluminum bronze awakening when she was in elementary school. She developed feelings for pretty female classmates and attracted the attention of the girls she liked by bullying them and hiding their dolls. This kind of behavior is not something O would do.
In other words, Judy has always been a character who is a t among tp and a 1 among 10. In the game, after completing the Genting Tower branch quest, her kiss on V was more like a hooligan act towards the target.
If this is not obvious, in the CG of the riverside cottage, Judy is mostly the active one, while V is the pillow princess most of the time.
In other words, the wife in the player's eyes is actually the one who treats the player as her wife. The relationship is complicated, but that's the relationship.
Now there is only one explanation for her enthusiasm for Bai Rui: this Aluminum-Clad Copper has taken a fancy to Bai Rui.
Judy really likes guys like Bai Rui, with her neat short hair and a childish face, a perfect combination of vitality and cuteness. How could she let her go? It would be best if they could have more romances.
Although her relationship with Evelyn was ambiguous and unclear, Evelyn was engaged in the service industry after all, and Judy and she had their own things to do. After all, they had not confirmed their relationship, so naturally, there was no obligation.
And now, Judy's target is Bai Rui, a mercenary with a baby face.
"Hey, let's add each other's contact information and get in touch when we're free." Judy smiled ambiguously and quickly wrote down her contact information on a piece of paper because she found that Bai Rui didn't have a prosthetic body. "I know a good place, but it would be a pity if you didn't come."
It is 1's duty to avoid 0's embarrassment. How could she, who is so experienced, forget this?
"Um, thank you." Bai Rui was a little surprised. Why was Judy so enthusiastic? Could she have traveled through time as well? But she was not in the original world. Shouldn't she be confused when she saw the extra self? Why was she so enthusiastic?
During the whole conversation, Bai Rui, who was led by Judy, completely deviated from the topic.
While collecting the note, Judy "accidentally" touched Bai Rui's little hand, which was warm and made Bai Rui feel itchy.
"Hey, Bai Rui, let's go."
Judy wanted to say something, but when she heard V's voice coming from outside the door, she could only shrug.
"Remember to contact me." Judy winked at Bai Rui.
"Okay!" The silly Bai Rui responded energetically. She still thought Judy was a really nice and enthusiastic person.
Only V, who had poked her head in, looked at Judy with suspicion and frowned unconsciously.
