Cyberpunk: 2075
Chapter 219 78. Scheduled Annual Meeting
"Potato stew."
Haruko read the name of this dish, but Chiyome had already walked over from the door.
She knelt down next to Haruko, then stretched out her hands and took the box from Karl's hand.
Opening it, the potato stew just made in the morning was still warm in the box that Karl bought specially and had a very good thermal insulation effect.
Chiyome glanced at Karl and then looked at Haruko: "Please allow me to taste it first, Miss Haruko."
Test poison...
Karl didn't mind.
And Haruko had no intention of refusing.
There are many opportunities for Karl to poison. For example, when peeling oranges, he can secretly inject neurotoxin into the oranges. There is no need for him to poison the food openly. Haruko trusts Karl, but during this inspection process, It is necessary for Chiyome.
Because this is Chiyome's duty, and given Chiyome's personality, she must not neglect her duty.
The last person who neglected his duty in her judgment no longer even calls him master, and is becoming a defaulter every day.
Chiyome took out a spoon and chopsticks in advance, and activated her prosthetic eyes. She first scanned carefully to make sure there were no foreign objects, then put a spoonful of potato stew into her mouth.
The soft and glutinous potatoes and stewed pork tasted very fragrant, but the face of the Chiyome who was eating remained unchanged, as if she was taking nutritional supplements in a training camp. Her mouth moved slightly, and the installed analysis prosthesis was activated. This mouthful Everything in Potato Stew is clearly explained.
A few seconds later, Chiyome looked at Karl and said the first words after swallowing the potato stew: "The taste is too strong. For the lady, it may lack the taste, and the pork used is not good. It’s not produced in a culture room, the type of potatoes is not good, and the spices used are not up to par. It’s not good at all as food.”
"Woolen cloth..
After being severely criticized over the food, Carl was speechless.
Because these are all facts.
The things he can buy in Night City can only be enjoyed by top people, but compared to Arasaka Haruko's daily food, it can only be said to be just like that.
However, Chiyome only talked about the taste and material issues of the food. As for the food itself, she did not mention any bad substances found in the inspection. However, she still gave a reminder according to her duties:
"This food will not suit your taste, young lady. If you refuse the offer because of embarrassment, I am willing to finish it."
"kindness."
Listening to Chiyome's comments about the food, Haruko looked at the potato stew, then looked at Karl, and finally said to Chiyome:
"Don't worry, I'll give it a try for the first bite."
One bite, it should still be edible, right?
"You don't have to force yourself to eat if you're not used to it. I understand this aspect."
Karl didn't care. After all, he was used to eating good food. He knew the feeling of eating something that was difficult to eat. Although he had been able to adapt to eating some synthetic meatballs recently, it was soft when he bit into it, and there were some earthworms in it. The synthetic steak with its splinters and squeaky locust mouthparts was still too much to bear, let alone Haruko, a guy who was better at eating than in his previous life.
“This is my intention, I should be able to do it.
Haruko said, taking another new spoon handed over by Chiyome, and took a small bite.
The brows that were frowning nervously slowly relaxed after the entrance.
"Does it feel acceptable?"
"It seems my cooking skills are not that bad."
Karl nodded slightly after listening to Haruko's evaluation.
I was almost knocked out of my confidence by Chiyome.
Karl watched Haruko slowly eat the potato stew one bite at a time. When he thought that it would be very boring to eat together without getting some staple food, Haruko put down the spoon.
"It's time."
She said something that Karl didn't understand, but Chiyoda understood it. She stood up, and her prosthetic eyes controlled something. On the sides of Haruko and Karl in the tea room, the place that originally seemed to be the wall showed color.
In Karl's eyes, the wall that Karl had looked at and was a little curious as to why there was nothing around it turned into a screen.
television?
It turned out to be a TV screen?
This is well decorated.
The screen lit up under Karl's gaze, and then the sound came out first compared to the picture.
"Fasten your seat belt!"
n
Karl looked at the middle-aged man with a sunny smile on the screen and said this, and he could only raise a question mark in his heart.
"This is?"
"Hino Suichi, late-night stand-up comedian host."
Chiyome explained: "This is a midnight recording that Haruko-san watches every day. His cross talk skills are very high, and the language he expresses has enough sense of humor, so he is very popular."
"chant..:"
Seeing Haruko staring at the screen and handing him an orange she took out from nowhere, obviously intending to let him peel it, Karl was a little confused.
Miss, do you like to watch stand-up comedy?
hiss.::
Thinking about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with this?
But isn’t this a bit of a stretch?
1::
Looking at the dignified Haruko and Hino Hidetomo, whose face was constantly changing on the screen, talking about cross talk, and occasionally making funny faces, Karl could only say:
"People's hobbies are really all kinds, but they don't really look alike."
"I don't like cross talk."
Haruko turned her head and took the orange peeled by Carl, saying, "It's just because he looks like an elder I know and I respect him very much. His face and whereabouts are kept secret and he is usually very serious. So I found it very interesting to see the host who looks like him in this crosstalk and put on all kinds of looks."
"Is that so?"
The person who looks like someone he knows made a funny look that the person wouldn't make. After thinking about it carefully, Carl had to say that he would be interested.
For example, it sounds like Kenichi Shiro is on a show, performing a two-dimensional imitation show, covering his face with one hand and saying something like "King's Power". If Carl sees the relevant Mewtwo, he will buy it every time and pay attention to subscribing.
Carl, who was free and followed Haruko to eat oranges and watch crosstalk, found that the host's level was very high after watching it for a while. It was very interesting to watch. After he ate ten oranges unknowingly, Haruko, who shared half with him, remembered something.
"By the way, Carl, in a few days, I may need you to be my temporary guard.
1
"Temporary guard, oh, it's the emergency special situation that Kenichi Shiro mentioned, what time and where."
This is another way to make money.
When Carl thought so, Haruko said something extraordinary in a very ordinary way.
"Four days later, at the annual board meeting of Arasaka Tower in Night City."
Annual board meeting?
Night City's...
That is, the most powerful corporate dogs in the entire United States will gather?
Four days later, Carl calculated the time.
He and Blanca will have dinner on Christmas Eve the day after tomorrow, and then on the third day, he will spend Christmas with Jack and the others at the Wild Wolf Bar.
Four days later, that means that time is...
The first day after Christmas.
Putting the annual meeting at that time, Arasaka in Night City can be considered to be integrated into Western culture.
