Survival in the game world begins with Biochemical 2

Chapter 273 Commission: Wakako’s newcomer

Two days later in the evening, Westbrook, Charter Hill.

Li You parked the car next to the map data terminal called "Long Beach South".

He didn't get out of the car, but sat in the driver's seat, looking through the car window at the slowly flowing light green sewage under the bridge. The colorful neon lights of Night City shine on it, reflecting a layer of misty light.

The so-called Long Beach is a drainage canal that runs through half of Night City from north to south. Some of it is still in operation, and some of it has long been blocked.

And its northern end, just near Rebecca's house, is the small reservoir where Li You discussed the action plan with Aggie just after completing the commission with Rebecca.

Rebecca's voice came from Li You's mobile phone:

"Listen up, let's confirm the commission content one last time."

"Wakako's request is to rescue the target intact from the Tiger Claw Casino and deliver it to the designated destination. Needless to say, you should know that this is not an easy task. Give me some snacks."

Li You replied: "Don't worry, I know it."

Rebecca on the other end of the phone unabashedly clicked her tongue: "You'd better really have it. I told Gezi that if this commission fails, even our evaluations will drop. Will you lose anything by then?" Compensate!"

Rebecca was speechless: "Just protect him."

However, although he thought so, after contacting Mann, he learned that Mann himself was busy preparing for the "big job" and had no time to come, so in the end he only sent Rebecca and Sasha Sha came to help and Falco drove.

Li You can understand, not to mention that for him, having a hacker named Sasha is enough.

At this moment, Sasha was wearing a pair of single-eyed electronic goggles and reviewing the intelligence obtained in advance.

Li You stopped being polite and touched the man silently. He was so bored that he slapped his tiger claws one after another on his back, and immediately took action and broke his neck.

Li You: "...Because I hate second-hand smoke. Anyway, let's deal with this guy first."

"Let's go then."

Rebecca's voice came from the earphones again: "Let me say it for the last time! This casino is a membership only, and anyone without a license is not welcome to enter!"

"——Ha!?" Rebecca's voice suddenly rose, causing Li You's eardrums to ache, "You guys, do you want to find trouble!"

The two cars were parked at both ends of the road. After rescuing the people, they would choose which way to leave depending on the situation.

Yuzi is guarding Li You's car, and the infiltration mission is not suitable for him.

"Okay. Sasha, go ahead and be careful."

He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he climbed over the guardrail of the short bridge first and went down the relatively gentle slope until he reached the side door. Although it is said to be a side entrance, it is actually only separated from the "main entrance" by two walls.

"But we can go in through the 'internal passage' next to it. Members of the Tiger Claw Gang, as well as guests who are inconvenient to appear in public, will go here."

He is still in the stage of making a name for himself, but he cannot let things slip at this stage.

Apart from anything else, Li You is indeed taking this commission very seriously.

The above are Wakako's exact words, and Li You also knows that she definitely means what she says.

This was something that Westbrook's middleman, Wakako, called specifically to entrust.

Sasha's voice then came out: "Don't worry, Rebecca, it will be fine."

In the game, if you take the main entrance, there will be a Tiger Claw gang guarding the maintenance channel at the end, but accordingly, players can also choose to pay to enter the casino.

Walking along the maintenance channel, there was indeed a tattooed Tiger Claw standing guard, but fortunately there was no one else but him.

As for the car Sasha and Rebecca were riding in, he didn't need to worry about that, because the driver of Mann's team, Falco, was still in the car.

Edge and Sasha followed. Looking at the slightly horrifying corpse on the ground, Aggie couldn't help but complain: "As for using so much force?"

"The commission content will be sent to you immediately. This is your first mission with me, don't let me down. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to get jobs in Japan Street in the future."

"So, this commission will be completed by you and the people from Mann's team. Because as far as I know, none of your team members have any decent prosthetics. I think the supporting hackers and technicians should It can come in handy.

Li You and Aiji opened the door and got out of the car. He said into the earphone: "It's almost time. Get ready for action. Let's proceed as planned."

"...There is indeed no one else around here who can take action." Aiji made the final confirmation.

...because he accidentally used too much force and twisted his neck an extra ninety degrees.

"Okay, okay." Li You joked, "Rebecca, you really look like an old woman."

"According to the architectural blueprint we obtained, this casino was built under the water channel, in the original maintenance station. The Tiger Claw Gang blocked other entrances and exits, leaving only one here."

"So what you have to do is sneak in through the side door, rescue the people, and then we run away immediately! Don't fire if you can, remember!"

"Ok!"

Li You and the others took this exact path. Although they had no technical experts here, Sasha directly hacked the door open through a quick invasion, and sneaked in silently as well.

As for now, Li You doesn't have this option in front of him, so he can only choose another way-use enough technical ability to crack the door lock of the side door and sneak into the casino from the second floor.

Li You actually has an impression of this casino. In the game, Wakako will have a commission asking V to come here to steal a chip, so he has also been here.

Li You took Ai Ji and met Sasha at the bridge. The three of them will be responsible for infiltrating. Rebecca stayed by the bridge, tasked with paying attention to her surroundings.

On the phone at that time, she said: "Li You, let me get straight to the point. I never trust mercenaries 'recommended' by other middlemen. I only look at their actual performance here."

Li You looked at Sasha: "I'm going to ask you again this time."

She also heard about Li You from Regina and Dakota, so she handed over the commission. But unlike those two people, Wakako, the old lady, is more cautious and difficult to get along with.

"No, it's just a personal opinion." Li You responded casually, and before Rebecca could curse, he said "We're taking action" and hung up the communication.

Sasha smiled: "Let's work hard together!"

He rummaged through the body and found an Omaha pistol and dozens of dollars in change. He temporarily put it into his pocket, then threw the body into the trash can, and then opened the door at the end of the passage.

Coming in from here is directly the second floor warehouse of the casino, and the control room is also right next to it.

Li You leaned against the door and looked at the situation in the surveillance room. There was one lying on the hacker chair watching Mewtwo, one sitting in front of the computer and staring at the surveillance, and a spirited old girl leaning against the door, bored. appearance.

"Three Tiger Claws. The one watching Mewtwo can be ignored. He won't wake up without making a big fuss. As for the remaining two...Sasha, can you distract them?"

Sasha squatted at Li You's feet and nodded when he heard this: "Leave it to me!"

She leaned her head out slightly, glanced at the furnishings in the room through the window next to the door, and immediately had an idea.

"Li You, I will hack the screen in the next room and lure the one standing at the door over. The remaining one watching the surveillance will be left to you."

"no problem."

"Ah, by the way. That one on the chair is a hacker, isn't he watching Mewtwo?"

Li You: "...Is that so? Let's just kill her right away."

Sasha's prosthetic eye shimmered, and she locked the computer in the next room and uploaded a quick crack program. The computer suddenly flashed with light and made a "sizzling" sound from time to time, which immediately attracted the attention of the Tiger Claw Gang at the door.

"Oh, why are you here again? This broken computer." The Tiger Claw Gang next to the door complained, "I don't even know how many times it breaks down in a day!"

"Stop complaining and go handle it. It will be hard for us if the leader sees it." The Tiger Claw Gang who watched the surveillance didn't even look back.

"Okay, okay, anyway, the lowest level of us are just running errands." The previous Tiger Claw couldn't help but complained and went to the next room.

"It's now!"

Needless to say, Li You had already opened the door of the warehouse, walked through it, and came behind the monitoring Tiger Claw Gang. He repeated his old trick, locking the guy's neck and breaking it.

Then, Li You picked up the body and took it back to the warehouse.

The Tiger Claw Gang who left quickly returned: "It's not a big problem, I guess it's still the same old problem... Hmm? Yamashita? Where did you go?"

He looked around and saw that everything was normal except for one person, so he didn't take it to heart and just assumed that the guy was going to the toilet. But just as he turned his head, Li You appeared behind him again and sent him away with him.

Stealth three kills.

The monitoring room was quiet now, and Aggie and Sasha also walked in.

Aggie maintained awareness of the entire casino throughout the process, so he didn't speak much. Sasha looked at the hacker lying on the chair and said: "She is responsible for controlling the equipment here. Burn her, monitor and so on." He is our spy."

Li You naturally wouldn't stop him. Watching Sasha skillfully invade through the link and burn out the brains of the Tiger Claw gang hackers, a faint white smoke rose from the unlucky guy.

"Okay, I'm in the system. Let me see where they keep people..."

Sasha entered the casino's system, borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha, and used the hacking equipment here to quickly go through the records inside the system, and found the clue as expected: "Yes!"

"There is a maintenance warehouse at the innermost part of the first floor. Judging from their records, people should be locked up there."

"The first floor?" Li You looked at the surveillance screen next to him.

In the casino, the second floor is purely the control room, and the first floor is the main body of the casino. There are guards from the Tiger Claw Gang everywhere, occupying all the blind spots.

Although the surveillance system has fallen into Sasha's control, judging from the internal distribution of personnel, even if Li You bypassed them and slipped into the warehouse, he would not be able to rescue the people without alerting others.

"...How about just copying the guy?"

If you want to talk about what Li You's current way of thinking is most similar to when he was playing games, it is probably the way he is now. When he encounters a problem that cannot be solved by stealth, he wants to directly solve the person who caused the problem.

"Well... it's not impossible. I have controlled the system and the alarm cannot be sent out for the time being. If you really want to do this, Li You, then call Rebecca and the others. Let's work together to kill them all before the Tiger Claw Gang escapes. It should be fine.”

Sasha didn't stop Li You, but gave him advice, which made him a little embarrassed.

"Forget it, it's better to be on the safe side...wait! Is that the maintenance warehouse on the first floor?" Li You suddenly thought that in the game, the ceiling of the small compartment in the maintenance warehouse seems to be broken, and it can lead directly to the second floor. With?

Although the game is still at least a year and a half away, I don’t know if this hole has appeared, but it is at least worth a try.

Li You glanced at Ai Ji, who immediately understood: "There are only two people patrolling back and forth on the second floor, one for each of us."

"Okay, do it."

Li You and Aiji immediately slipped out of the side door and came to the circular corridor on the second floor. From here they could overlook the casino on the first floor, so there were two people watching.

And their fate was the same as that of their previous companions, who had their necks broken by Li You and died.

Li You came to the door of the warehouse on the second floor. Sasha opened the door for him to enter. Then he was very lucky to find that the ceiling inside the warehouse was indeed broken and connected to the first floor.

It's rare to get lucky, so of course Li You won't be polite. He jumped directly through the hole and came to the warehouse compartment where the Tiger Claw Gang stored ammunition. Taking advantage of the few seconds that Sasha cracked the access control, he poured all the ammunition here into his firearm storage box.

"Beep--" The door of the compartment opened, and Li You walked into the maintenance warehouse and saw the unconscious young girl tied to a chair.

She wears an orange hacker tights, with conspicuous silver prosthetics on her arms and legs. Her appearance is quite delicate, but the overall beauty is ruined by the seams on her face and the eye-catching cockscomb hair.

Li You had a look of surprise on his face, because he also knew this person.

This hacker girl, nicknamed "Little Demon", is another one of Wakako's missions in the game. She is trapped by the Tiger Claw Gang and needs to be rescued by V.

Li You wanted to wake her up and ask her why she was in such a mess even though it was more than a year ago? Do you want someone to rescue you again?

But this kind of thing must only be thought about. Li You looked at her condition and found that she seemed to be in a deep coma, so he didn't waste time and directly picked her up and took her back to the second floor.

"The person has been rescued, let's go!"

So far, everything is going well. Unfortunately, Li You's rare good luck seems to have been exhausted.

Li You was about to leave the same way from the second floor, but the voices of Sasha and Aiji came successively: "Wait... someone is coming from the side door!"

Li You was also shocked: Damn it, the corpses just now were piled at the entrance behind the monitoring room!

Sure enough, the next moment, a burst of curses in Japanese came from the direction of the control room: "——Asshole! Someone broke in and killed our people!"

I have to take action!

Li You made a prompt decision and handed the little demon to Aiji, rushed into the control room, and said to Sasha: "Tell Falco that we will go out immediately, let him start the car, and ask Rebecca to cover! Then hack their weapons!" "

"understand!"

At this time, the Tiger Claw Gang from outside just opened the door of the monitoring room. When they saw Li You and Sasha, they cursed loudly and were about to draw their guns.

Sasha also acted decisively. Before they could react, he had already started uploading "weapon failure" to quickly crack it. At this time, the invasion was completed.

Electric sparks erupted from the guns in the hands of the three Tiger Claw gang members, and they jammed one after another. They were shocked and wanted to draw out their secondary weapons to deal with it.

But Li You rushed forward quickly, and Lei Guang Yueying suddenly unsheathed!

The light of the sword flashed away, and the sharp blade that had been strengthened four times now looked like a magic weapon. Li You didn't even add much strength, and cut the three people into two pieces in one breath!

Six bodies fell to the ground, blood flowing freely. Li You didn't have time to care whether such a scene would have a negative impact on the child's psychology. He just turned around and said, "Let's go!"

The Tiger Claw Gang on the first floor had already noticed the abnormality and surrounded them on the second floor.

But this is not the main problem. What is difficult is that Sasha discovered through positioning that the two Tiger Claw gang members at the door ran out of the casino and went to contact the outside world!

Now there was really no time to delay. Li You took the lead and led the two of them out of the casino along the way.

He ignored the pursuers behind him as long as they were not within a dangerous distance. As for the front, Li You took out the Hand Cannon X and shot anyone who was in the way of the Tiger Claw Gang without hesitation!

The three of them quickly returned to the canal outside. Li You ignored the mysophobia and ran all the way back to the short bridge.

Rebecca and Yuzi were waiting here. Looking at the pursuers from behind, Rebecca said angrily: "I reminded you that someone went in, but why were they still discovered!"

"I'll explain to you later!" Li You put the little demon in Falco's car, while Sasha helped the little demon fasten his seat belt.

Li You said quickly: "You drive your own car and take another road! We will meet at the target location!"

"What did you say-"

"Ha!? Don't be ridiculous..."

Before Sasha and Rebecca finished speaking, Li You had turned around and walked to the edge of the short bridge, firing several shots at the Tiger Claw Gang below. The roaring gunshots scared the surrounding pedestrians to avoid them.

He yelled in Japanese: "A bunch of idiots! Come and catch me if you have the skills!"

While Li You was shooting, he ran to his car and got into the driver's seat.

Aiji and Yuzi also returned to the car. Li You stepped on the accelerator and rushed out!

"—what the hell!"

Li You made quite a commotion, and the Tiger Claws who were chasing him naturally locked onto his car. They all screamed and drove after him, while the inconspicuous Sasha and Rebecca were ignored. .

The two people who were left behind looked at each other, said nothing, got into Falco's car, and walked the other way to the designated location.

On Li You's side, the Tiger Claw Gang behind him drove a car and three motorcycles in hot pursuit.

But Li You was not afraid at all, especially Yuzi who was standing on the carriage.

Yuzu took off the Titan Killer that she had not used for a long time from her back and aimed at the Mizutani Falcon of the Tiger Claw Gang.

"boom--!!"

The giant killer's gun spewed out flames and gunpowder smoke, and the huge metal projectile was thrown out, accurately shooting through the Mizutani Falcon's engine, and the whole car exploded with a bang!

The violent explosion also affected one of the Tiger Claw motorcycles, knocking it over to the ground, but the remaining two were still in hot pursuit, and the two Tiger Claw gangs carrying samurai swords refused to give up.

Yuzu was not polite, grabbed the handle of the giant killer, used it as a long stick and swung it hard, and swept away the unlucky guy on the left side of the car.

As for the last member of the Tiger Claw Gang, he had good driving skills and avoided the attack just now. He even turned the accelerator to accelerate and came to Li You's driving seat.

"Hahahahahahaha——!!"

The Tiger Claw Gang rider laughed shrilly, raised his samurai sword, and wanted to stab Li You who was driving.

However, the next moment, he only saw a flash of blue-silver light in front of his eyes and lost consciousness.

The light in Li You's hand shone slightly, and he took back the thunder and moon shadow. He didn't do anything just now, he just held the knife in his left hand and stabbed the Tiger Claw Gang through the head.

There were no other pursuers, but Li You still made several detours before driving to the designated location.

The escort location required by the mission is in Japan Street, next to a restaurant called "Red Panda". Enter from the alley next to the hotel, then go around to the back door, go down the narrow stairs, and reach the designated location.

Except that the more Li You looked at it, the more familiar this place seemed...

Isn't this the lair of Nanchang Xun, the chief hacker under Wakako's commission?

One commission is worth three?

Others naturally don't know the flaws in his heart. Ai Ji and Yu Zi stayed in the car. Li You followed Rebecca and Sasha with Xiao Yao in his arms.

Rebecca used the door panel to call Nanchang Xun: "Hey, is anyone there? We have delivered a package for Wakako."

"--come in."

The door opened automatically, and the three people entered. An Asian man who looked to be in his forties or fifty stood up from the hacker chair, moved briefly, and said: "Put the package down."

He immediately adjusted his electronic eyes, then looked at the little demon who was put down by Li You, and said, "Give her a shot of the pneumatic syringe on the table."

Rebecca complied unceremoniously and injected the injection into her body. The little demon, who had been unconscious all this time, suddenly opened his eyes wide and froze as his body twitched.

"Hey, you are Xiao Yao, the newcomer who wants to join Wakako." Nanchang Xun greeted him calmly, "I am Nanchang Xun, the chief hacker under Wakako. I will be responsible for guiding you during this period. .”

The little demon was still panting heavily, his chest rising and falling. She looked around: "Is this... your base? Did I escape? I remember I was killed by the Tiger Claw Gang..."

"Okay, don't talk so much now, you have to rest." Nanchangxun stopped her, "Think about other things later. You are already safe."

He turned to Li You and others and said, "Thank you. The mission was completed perfectly. I will tell Wakako."

Naturally, Li You and the others would not stay, and immediately left Nanchangxun's stronghold.

“Didi dididi——”

As soon as they returned to the roadside, before they even had time to get in the car, Wakako called.

"Li You, Rebecca. I received the news, you did a good job."

It seemed that because the commission was completed, Wakako looked much better, even a little pleasant.

"This little demon is new to Night City, and she was originally going to defect to me. But the young man didn't know the bounds of the world, and provoked the most unprovoked group of people in the Tiger Claw Gang, and got himself into trouble. Thanks to you for saving her. come out.

"The commission ends here. You all did a good job. Oh, by the way, Li You, it seems Regina and the others were right in their evaluation of you. If I have any work to do in the future, I will think of you. That's it."

Wakako hung up the communication.

Li You put away his phone, only to find Rebecca looking at him askance, and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'm just thinking that although you are unreliable, you are still quite reliable at critical times."

Li You: "..."

Why don't you leave it here?

"...Now that the commission has been completed, if nothing happens, let's go have something to eat together."

Rebecca glanced at Sasha, who had been hesitant to speak since just now, and extended an invitation to Li You.

"Ah, but I will never treat you!"

Li You already understood her thoughts, smiled and said, "That's okay, let's go."

"I'm treating you this time."
