The world of cyberpunk.

November 2073.

Little Chinatown in Watson District.

In the basement behind Misty's psychic house.

...

It hurts! This is the only thought in Rocky's mind.

He opened his heavy eyelids and saw the dazzling light.

"You finally woke up. I took great pains to pull you back from the brink of death."

"Who are you...?"

"My name is Victor, and I'm a prosthetic doctor. When I was out today, I saw you lying in the alley injured, so I brought you back.

Fortunately, although the injuries were not light, they were not completely fatal. The left arm was completely crushed, the left leg was fractured, and three ribs on the left were broken.

The left arm cannot be restored, so it was replaced with a prosthesis. As for other parts, if the prosthesis is not installed, it will be fully restored in three months at most.

Of course, if you want, I can replace it for you, but I still suggest that you don't install too many prostheses at one time, which will put a burden on your body.

In fact, I'm more curious about where you came from. You are a complete native, and you have delicate skin and tender flesh. You don't look like a penniless wanderer, nor a big guy who advocates native power.

Maybe you are a pampered young master in a big company family?

It's really strange."

Listening to Victor's words, Rocky's turbid brain suddenly cleared up.

He glanced at the mature man wearing sunglasses sitting next to him, and then looked at the surrounding environment.

The empty and slightly dim basement was filled with tables and cabinets filled with various medical supplies, and electronic screens full of technology.

Everything around him overlapped with the scenes in his mind.

Now Rocky has clearly realized where he has come to. There is no doubt that he has traveled to the world of cyberpunk.

'I actually came to cyberpunk? This half-hook is really cruel. It just touched me and directly brought me to cyberpunk, and my left hand was directly broken.

Fortunately, the cyberpunk world can change prostheses. Otherwise, I will have to be a disabled person. '

While thinking, Rocky tried to control his left hand, and it felt no different from his own hand. It is worthy of the cyber world.

"Thank you, Victor. If it weren't for you, I might have died.

As for where I came from, I'm sorry, it's a bit complicated and I can't explain it clearly.

It's just that I'm now helpless and penniless, and I may not be able to pay for your medical expenses and the cost of installing the prosthesis.

But I will definitely find a way to pay you back. I hope you can give me some time."

Rocky quickly calmed down, but the headache was that he was penniless now and had to find a way to get some money, otherwise he couldn't even pay for the prosthesis.

Fortunately, the one who picked up Rocky was Old Victor, one of the few conscientious prosthesis doctors in Night City, Victor Victor.

Rather than other black-hearted doctors or even kidney-cutting scavengers.

The former could directly sell him to the scavenger to decompose him into organs for money when he couldn't pay for the medical expenses.

The latter was more direct. If they saw him, he wouldn't even have the chance to wake up and would be decomposed directly.

For this, Rocky was thankful and very grateful to Old Victor.

"It doesn't matter. Basically, everyone who comes to Night City has his unspeakable past. Just pay me back when you have money.

By the way, I don't know your name yet."

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. Just call me L.

By the way, if you don't mind, can I be your assistant, or do any other job, as long as I have a place to live and food to eat.

Look at my current state, it is really difficult to survive outside. Although I don't know anything now, I will try my best to learn. I hope you will give me a chance."

After a brief thought, Rocky decided to hold on to the thigh to the end. It is rare to meet a conscientious person at the beginning, which is also a rare species in Night City.

Now that his injury has not healed, Rocky does not think that he can do anything even if he goes out in this state.

The best choice now is to rely on Lao Wei first, heal his injury, and see if he can get a job to pay off the debt and make some money.

And up to now, Rocky has not felt that he has any golden fingers. If he does not have special abilities, in this cyberpunk world where human life is as cheap as a dog, with his small body, maybe staying in Lao Wei's place as an ordinary person for the rest of his life is the best ending.

Hearing Rocky's words, Lao Wei rubbed his chin with his hands on his knees and fell into thought.

Maybe Lao Wei's store is rooted in

There was no need for an assistant.

There weren't many guests to begin with, so he alone was enough.

In addition, he just wanted to live an ordinary life now, so it would be a bit strange to have one more person.

And he didn't look simple. He looked clean and didn't look like a homeless man who didn't have money to install cyber modification. He looked thin and didn't look like someone who advocated original power. Maybe he was a young master from a big family who was in trouble, and he might be involved in the whirlpool of some company.

After a moment of silence, Rocky looked at the thinking old Wei, and he was also very uncertain. After all, he had helped enough, and it was hard to say whether he would take him in.

Of course, if Rocky knew about Lao Wei's concerns, he would definitely vomit blood, after all, he was really innocent.

Of course, if you insist that his origin is indeed not simple, after all, he is a time traveler.

"Okay, you can stay here as my assistant. I can provide you with food and accommodation, and I will pay you as usual.

As for whether you stay or go after you get better, I don't care. Of course, you have to pay off your medical bills first."

After thinking for a while, Lao Wei said.

For some reason, maybe he wanted to help people to the end, or he felt that Rocky really needed help after seeing his innocent face.

In short, Rocky successfully stayed in Lao Wei's shop and became an assistant to a prosthetic doctor.

......

Time flies, and two years have passed in a blink of an eye.

November 2075.

'It's almost 2076 before I know it, and the Edgewalker is about to start. Let's see what we can do. '

While thinking, Rocky put a prosthetic eyeball into the eye socket of the customer in front of him.

In the past two years, Rocky has basically integrated and gotten used to life in the cyberpunk world. He has been staying in Lao Wei's shop to learn prosthetic surgery and medical technology. He spends his free time after get off work learning boxing and hacking technology from Lao Wei.

To Lao Wei's surprise, this young man of unknown origin learns things very quickly.

With Lao Wei's patient help and education, Rocky, as an assistant, has completely learned his skills, and his skills have been recognized by Lao Wei.

It can be said that Rocky is now a fully qualified prosthetic doctor. In terms of the entire Watson area, Rocky's skills are only lower than Lao Wei.

So now the prosthetic surgery is basically performed by Rocky and Lao Wei in turn. Of course, in order to give Rocky more opportunities to practice and make money, Lao Wei usually gives the surgery to Rocky.
