Cyberpunk: 2075

"Sorry, it's okay."

The blue-haired girl sitting on the ground heard Karl's voice and raised her head to glance at him. Her purple prosthetic eyes flashed, and it seemed that she started scanning at the moment she looked up.

‘Gaius Brutus, from Heywood, seventeen years old, criminal history, illegal selling of Mewtwo, no NCPD reward. ’

After the information scanned by the prosthetic eye entered the girl's mind, she also understood Gaius' identity.

‘The rumored experience student? ’

There was no special expression on her face. The blue-haired girl just shook her head slightly, refused Gaius's support, and then stood up from the ground: "You should be careful when walking around the corner."

After just saying such a normal word, the blue-haired girl bypassed Gaius and continued walking forward. It seemed that she didn't pay much attention to the unexpected collision at the corner.

"I'll be careful."

The blue-haired girl said something behind her back that she didn't know if she heard. Gaius turned his palm and covered something under his palm.

When he bumped into the girl just now, he got something from her body.

Gaius paid attention to the camera at the corner. In the collision just now, he took advantage of the misalignment and used the blue-haired girl's body to block his small movements.

As if nothing happened, he walked a few steps and reached the blind spot of the camera he had observed when he visited the school yesterday. Gaius took out the card-like thing he got from the blue-haired girl and took a look at it. .

‘I got the prize. ’

The card-like thing in Gaius' hand is called a vehicle control chip, which is equivalent to a car key in 2075.

Just like car keys in previous eras always have a special matching appearance, luxury cars in 2075 will basically have a special chip appearance. Thanks to the popular science of two car lovers, Oliver and Jack, cover Just from the appearance of the chip, Wus had already recognized what kind of car it was.

[Herrera Gangster GTS]: The top Spanish motor vehicle has the most unique and popular models on the market. Technology and classic and exquisite design are perfectly integrated in it. It is hand-built by the world's top engineers. One of the most expensive road-legal cars you can find on the market.

As a student, at this age, you can have the key to such an expensive vehicle... The father or mother of the girl he hit just now must be a high-ranking person in the Arasaka Company.

Originally I just wanted to touch something casually and use it as an excuse to make contact again, but I didn't expect to hit the jackpot.

Such a grand prize cannot wait. It would be bad if she waits until she reacts and realizes that she has lost it.

With the vehicle chip in his hand, Gaius turned around and chased after the blue-haired girl.

"Wait a minute, you dropped something."

Hearing Gaius's voice, the blue-haired girl paused for a moment, turned her head, and when she looked at what Gaius was holding, her eyes were slightly stunned.

"This is yours, right? I just took a few steps out and found this thing stuck in my sleeve."

Gaius approached the girl with a smile and handed over the vehicle chip he was holding.

The blue-haired girl looked at the vehicle chip handed out by Gaius, but did not take it immediately. Instead, her purple prosthetic eyes flashed, and after scanning Gaius again, she stretched out her hand: "It's me. of."

The right hand she stretched out was very fair, and it could be seen that it was a hand that had not done any hard work. However, the position of the ring finger was silver-gray, which was different from other parts of her right hand. If you look closely, you can see that it is a white hand. You can tell that it is a prosthetic finger made of machinery.

This hand gently touched Gaius' palm, and then slid the vehicle chip away from Gaius' hand, without letting his fingers touch Gaius' skin the whole time.

"Thanks."

Holding the vehicle chip in her palm, the blue-haired girl thanked Gaius softly.

"It's okay, I was the one who bumped into you."

In fact, to be precise, it was the girl who bumped into her. Gaius just walked to that position at the right time, but since he wanted to leave an impression, there was no need to worry too much about this kind of thing.

After nodding with the girl to end the second conversation, Gaius turned around.

Too much is not enough, the contact in the morning is enough for now.

The first collision is to leave a minimum impression of the face, and the second time to deepen this impression through conversation with objects.

When you meet for the first time, leave a two-sided impression, which can lead to the next conversation.

There is always an opportunity in a month. As long as there is the first formal conversation, the second one will often follow. By then, it will be much easier when we are familiar with each other.

'Let's designate her as the number one contact person. Next, we have to see if there are any other Arasaka Academy students who are willing to talk to experience students like me. We can't let everyone go. It's best to get to know them all. Maybe They have the information they want. ’

After going to the bathroom and washing his hands, Gaius walked back. Less than five minutes had passed since he had rested for twenty minutes, but Gaius had no intention of contacting any more people.

Gaius was satisfied with having one person leave an impression of him during the break in the first class.

As I said before, as a student on trial, you can't be so ostentatious for the time being. If you accidentally bump into one person at a corner, it's an accident. If you bump into two people, it's a bit intentional. On the first day when the school will definitely pay the most attention, it's best to pretend to be an ordinary street kid.

Gaius thought so, but the development of things was not as he expected.

Not long after he walked out of the bathroom, three male students in school uniforms stopped him in the corridor.

"Are you the student on trial, Gaius?"

The leading male student had short blond hair. When he saw Gaius coming over with the water droplets on his hands, he first took a step back carefully, and then called out to Gaius who was still planning to move forward.

"What's the matter?"

Gaius glanced at the male student and the two people who looked like followers behind him. He didn't quite understand why they stopped him.

Could it be that on his first day of school, he would face some kind of bullying of the rich second generation against the common people?

Can he bear it?

Most likely not.

Thinking about whether he should smash the opponent's head first or kick Gaius under his crotch first if a fight breaks out, he then heard his unexpected words.

"Do you have any movies?"

The male student lowered his voice and approached carefully accompanied by his two followers who looked expectant.

"I've seen your information. You used to sell black Mewtwo on the street, right... Do you have any good movies? The academy and my family are too strict, so I can't buy them. Do you have any channels?"

....

Gaius suddenly felt that he seemed to have a way to get to know most of the male students at Arasaka Academy.
