Cyberpunk: 2075

"You're here."

"I am coming."

In fact, he really wanted to say something like "You shouldn't have come," but Karl felt that his employer, the boss of the company, probably didn't know how to have such a conversation, so he stopped talking after saying hello.

The second time he met his employer, compared to the hurried contact before, he just felt that she was domineering. Now Karl had extra time to observe this employer.

This employer was wearing makeup when they first met. Although she looked pretty, Karl was attracted by the one hundred thousand salary she mentioned before he even looked at her. So in fact, he didn't take a close look at his employer's appearance. Now, Upon closer inspection, the employer looked to be about twenty-three or four years old, with wide-open features, high eyebrows and deep eyes, short black hair and dark eyes, and a darker complexion. Upon closer inspection, he was from Southern Europe, to be precise. It is said that the facial features of Spain and Italy are the so-called Latin faces.

Karl is actually a bit face-blind when it comes to white people, but he can still distinguish people according to their facial features, but he doesn't find it that strange in the Night City for his employer's very distinctive appearance. ;

After all, America is a country with a large number of immigrants, and Night City is the intersection of all races on the West Coast. Let alone a company dog ​​with Latin characteristics in Night City, Carl can even meet the self-proclaimed Moxxi. Indian descendants of Gan people will not be surprised. After all, the so-called Mohawk, which is the unique hairstyle of that race, is now very popular in Night City.

The employer seemed to be waiting for something. Even when Karl arrived, she was not ready to take action. She stood downstairs at the Silent Motel, and she did not look conspicuous because she was only wearing black without makeup or a suit. In addition to being more beautiful than the girl standing on the street, the owner of the coat is also Nothing was surprising. Instead, Karl’s appearance and mercenary attire attracted a lot of attention. However, after seeing someone around him, most of the girls passing by had no intention of striking up a conversation, even if they were halfway there. When I was there, I was forced to step back by my employer's indifferent gaze.

The silence between Karl and his employer lasted for a while, and then the employer seemed to relieve boredom, or to let the next bodyguard know more about herself. She spoke: "My name is Blanca. Just call me that in future actions.”

Blanca is a very common Spanish name, which means white and pure. In Karl's memory, in the 13th century, there was a French queen from Castile who also had this name, but she How does this name compare to the person...

Karl looked at Blanca, who was dressed in black, and then thought about the meaning of her name, he felt that it was completely the opposite.

"For the task that's waiting for you, it's enough for you to be responsible for protecting my safety. Look less and talk less. I don't need your participation in related matters. Even if you hear something, forget it... I think you should be able to do it. At this point?"

Regarding this sentence, Carl chose to nod silently, showing that he was really taciturn. He was not Oliver, and he really didn't talk that much usually.

But he chose to respond silently, but the employer kept talking. Her feet kept changing her focus on the ground, as if to relieve tension: "Wait a moment, the number of people on the other side should be about ten, in case the negotiation fails. , I will make an action of lifting my hair, and after seeing this action, you will kill the person opposite me who is talking to me, and then cover me and get out of there, do you understand?"

"Um."

Karl silently wrote down this information. There were ten enemies, and they were asked to kill people after lifting their hair and protect the NPC (employer), and the reward was 50,000.

Very easy to remember.

Karl will not ask Blanca, as a company employee, why he can only negotiate things alone, and has to hire mercenaries like himself as bodyguards, because this kind of thing is not important, regardless of whether Blanca has no one in the company Whether she can be trusted or whether this is just her personal matter and has nothing to do with the company, Karl doesn't care.

He only cares about how many enemies there are, whether they can be killed, and how much the reward is. As long as he has this information, Karl feels that he can do this job.

Well, if there is additional information, it is where the enemy is.

Blanca looked at Karl who looked quite calm and didn't pay attention to the ten people across from him at all. Just as he was about to say something more important, a black 'Sky Hera EC-D I360' stopped in front of the two of them. on the road.

【Celestial Hera EC-D I360]: The first model of the Hera series, because it was too durable, easy to repair, and economical, it almost caused the Tianqiong company that manufactured it to go bankrupt. At the same time, this also made the subsequent Tianqiong board of directors understand the truth that product quality can be It's tough, but not too tough. This vehicle, which was first produced in 2023, is already outdated in today's era. However, there are still many car owners who prefer it and continue to modify it. It can still be seen on the streets of Night City. figure.

Like Oliver's SkyQiong Quartz EC-L R275, they are both products of SkyQiong. This type of car is generally used by the middle class and lower class people, and they are representatives of durability and affordability.

As Karl and Blanca watched, the rear door of the Nahra EC-D I360 was opened. The back seat was empty, facing Karl and Blanca, as if inviting them to sit in it.

Karl felt that the employer beside him was breathing heavier.

It seems that this is the car that will pick them up.

It's good, better than squeezing two seats. Carl always had to squeeze with Jack, the strong man, in Oliver's car. After Jack changed his subcutaneous armor, it was even more uncomfortable. He couldn't stand it.

The employer walked to the car, and Carl followed closely. After entering the car and sitting in the car seat, Carl saw the person sitting in the main driver's seat shaking his red head and turning around... Oh, to be precise, it was the driver who turned around with his eight red-glowing artificial eyes.

This is really too iconic, and the whole face has been changed beyond recognition. Carl sighed in his heart.

Sure enough, it was the Whirlpool Gang again. This group of modified psychopaths who don't treat themselves as human beings, old acquaintances.

I'm tired of killing them, can't I change the target?

No one knows what Carl is thinking. After the driver of the Whirlpool Gang confirmed the identities of the two people, he turned around, and then the car started, and the two drove to the northern industrial area of ​​Watson District, which is the most important place where the Whirlpool Gang is entrenched.

It seems that, in addition to the initial evidence against this employer, the Uzumaki Gang has something else in its hands.
