Cyberpunk: 2075

"The neural port has been connected. You may feel a little uncomfortable. It's normal to feel dizzy. Just get used to it and you'll be fine."

In Judy's voice, V felt that the scene he was seeing was constantly changing. The flickering of his sight did make him feel dazzled, but the flickering and bright light quickly stopped, and then he heard a voice.

"After this mission is completed, it's almost time for us to stop in this area."

[Writing this, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network→ⓣⓦⓚⓐⓝ.ⓒⓞⓜ]

This voice is a bit unfamiliar to V, but it sounds very familiar to those who have put their senses into it.

"Why are you still standing there? Bring everyone in. Once we're done, we have to go back to Watson District to change our base early. The vigilance in that place is getting higher and higher, and it's getting harder and harder to catch people. We can get them after the business is negotiated. After spending a lot of money for a few days, let’s see if we can work together and go to Dog Town, which is where people who really want to do big business should go.”

"Yes, brother."

Feeling that the "Souji" in Mewtwo replied, he began to carry something on his hands. V took a look from the perspective of the substitute and found that he was in a dilapidated house, carrying a comatose person. .

"Pause."

Carl's voice came from the connection, and Judy stopped playing Mewtwo at this time.

"V, can you adapt to this kind of Mewtwo that hasn't undergone much adjustment?"

After stopping the playback, Karl first asked, and then received a positive answer from V:

"It's okay, it's just that it's easy at this level.

"That's good."

Karl was reassured and continued: "Now that you have entered the scavenger's dream, can you see the surrounding scenery clearly through his dream super dream? Are there any features around it?"

"Characteristics?"

V looked at the surrounding environment from the corner of his eye: "This is a dilapidated house, and listening to the words of the person who was called Big Brother by this scavenger before, it seems that this is not Watson District yet, these scavengers are just in Watson District. There is a stronghold in the forest area to capture people, but the people are in other places.”

"A dilapidated house?"

There is no access to the device, so I can only see unclear Mewtwo through the computer screen scene shared by Judy. Carl heard the V

He frowned slightly and thought about it.

Houses with dilapidated sun are not uncommon in Night City, but you can't tell much from this alone.

"Then remember first and continue."

In Karl's voice, the video continued to change. While moving people, V entered a house. There were seven operating tables in the house, and six of them were tied up. Cover the unconscious person.

"These people are..."

Judy looked at the tied people in the picture, trying to see their faces clearly through the connection, but their faces were blurred in Mewtwo.

"Can't see clearly."

"It's probably someone they kidnapped, because if it's just goods that are going to be sold soon, there's no need to remember the face."

Karl said, taking a rough look through the computer screen:

"They didn't use the ice cubes and ice water in the bathtub that scavengers like to keep fresh. It seems that these scavengers have no intention of killing these people in a short time, or that the people who want to take action have not arrived? Put them on the operating table and tie them up Live, use automatic equipment to inject drugs to ensure that people are comatose. The scavenger can actually do such delicate work. It seems that this batch of goods is indeed what the scavenger just said, and can be sold for a lot of money.

So you have to take good care of it. "

"I discovered something Carl."

In Mewtwo, V, who started to observe the environment around his 'own' sight through another pause, said what he discovered at this time:

"I just noticed the walls along the way when I walked through the room. Although this house is dilapidated and there are holes in the stone floors in many places, the walls around it are intact, and there is not a single window in sight. There are two rooms. , can’t even see a window.”

"Where you can't see the windows, it seems that they are not planned and manufactured standardized apartments. Those apartments are all made from the same template, and there are no missing windows that can charge extra window opening service fees."

Karl can now roughly analyze the area.

Night City is a city with a population of seven million. It is a challenge for scavengers to find a place with sparse traffic, not easily exposed, non-standard apartments, and where they can have a residence regardless of their identity.

So, in the Night City, which area can provide an environment with old houses, a large area and a sparse population, suitable for hiding and easy to hide, and at the same time, there is no interference from the landlords of standard apartments?

The industrial area in the north of Watson District is obviously such a place, but the scavenger's words revealed that they are not in Watson District, so there is only... ． .

Taiping, Santo Domingo.

There is no need to say more about Taiping Prefecture.

Santo Domingo is one of the oldest districts in Night City. Giant companies once used it as a testing ground for industrial projects and opened many factories. Santo Domingo residents affected by industrial expansion had to squeeze their families into narrow apartments. Or move to Coronado Farm and seek living space on the edge of Taiping State. The living environment in the latter is obviously consistent with the location in Mewtwo.

"personnel."

When Karl wanted V to continue observing in order to obtain more information, V suddenly made an angry voice: "The people they kidnapped actually had a choice!"

Carl was confused: "What did you say, V?"

"I checked and found that all the kidnapped people, including those brought in by this scavenger, although their faces could not be seen clearly,

But judging from their bone ages when they were restrained on the operating table, their naked bodies, and their prosthetic eyes, I found that these abducted people, like my target, were all young people of about the same age! "

"Are they all young people?"

Young people are indeed very suitable targets among scavenger targets. Because they are young, the prosthetics they use are unlikely to be combat-type prosthetics, and their use of firearms may not be as good as that of older people. Skilled, but all targets are young people, which is strange.

Scavengers are like hyenas who only focus on their targets. They are never picky about easy prey. Even if young people are easy to prey on, it is not unusual for them to kidnap an ordinary citizen. Now, their kidnapping targets are all young people, and they are all of the same age... ,

"I saw it."

While Carl was thinking and V was observing the group of young people, Judy found something in the dream super dream.

"I have been able to determine the approximate location of these scavengers."

She said so confidently.
