As it was no longer possible to make a living by relying on interest, Camus was forced to use his brain to start working. By doing various tasks on the Internet, he could be considered a hacker with some fame.
"Qiao Qiao, are you really not planning to come back and play games with me?"
"By the way, Suzuki is playing too! Is he still playing? He was here when I last went online, but he was obsessed with that outdated game. I've switched to several games, but Suzuki refused to come and play with me."
Qiao Qiao recalled that everyone seemed to be having a lot of fun playing Alien together.
Qiao Qiao finally left the game because of reality, while Camus and his former friends chose to stay in the electronic world.
However, thinking of the appearance of a certain skeleton, Qiao Qiao couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha, how is it possible? It can't be an old bone. This is Cyberpunk 2077."
Camus couldn't help but tell Qiao Qiao about what had happened recently.
Camus has many online friends, but the only one who knows Camus' true identity and can talk to him in real life is Qiao Qiao.
"Come to think of it, you can take the equipment on my game account and sell it, but don't just leave it there and wait for it to depreciate before you do anything. That would be too cheap for the game company," Qiao Qiao reminded.
"Humph, you think you can show off your junk? Check out the game when you have time and see what new items I've found. I miss the time when we fought together on those continents and explored the unknown and distant places together."
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
Sitting opposite to me was a coffin, and I was reminiscing about the past.
"Speaking of which, how have you been lately?" Camus asked suddenly.
"It's okay. We were robbed by the Uzumaki gang this morning and all our belongings were stolen."
"What! So serious? I have some spare funds here, how about I transfer it to your account first..."
"No, you need money more than I do. To you, money is life."
Qiao Qiao took a quick glance and could tell that the daily maintenance of the large coffin in front of him would cost a lot.
"Since you've been robbed, why are you looking for me now to help you with something?"
"I want information about the Uzumaki Gang. It would be best if I knew their itinerary tonight."
"I see. However, I have this... Qiao Qiao, you know, although I am a hacker, I can only find those with storage computers. As for those street thugs, I may not be able to give much help."
"In that case, I'll have to find someone who knows more about the Uzumaki Gang."
Because it's almost only the brain that matters, and in the absence of various hormones to stimulate growth, Camus probably only grew a little in knowledge, and his personality is still like that of a little kid.
After discussing with his old friend, Qiao Qiao's originally complicated mood was more or less relieved of some happiness.
This was also the time when Qiao Qiao said goodbye to this friend temporarily, because he was planning to move out and find a bigger place to practice the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements.
Without any information from Camus, Qiao Qiao could only think of getting information about the Vortex Gang from other places.
As an illegal prosthetics doctor like him, he knows too many people who cannot get prosthetics implanted in a formal way.
One of the old customers named Mann suddenly reminded Qiao Qiao: "So that's how it is. This is all right for 107."
Qiao Qiao suddenly thought that since it is the world view of Cyberpunk 2077, then derivative animations will naturally exist as well.
Qiao Qiao dialed the contact and said, "Sasha, I want to ask you a favor."
……
Inside the house, hacker Sasha, who had finished a mission and enjoyed a banquet last night, has been sleeping on the sofa in the living room.
The strong smell of alcohol filled the slightly dim room.
This is a girls' gathering for a few close friends in their small team.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of the communicator ringing in his ears. Sasha waved his hands impatiently, but found that it didn't stop.
"It's so noisy, maybe he has a new job."
Sasha, lying on the sofa, scratched his fluffy black hair.
There are radiators similar to cat whiskers under the eyes that are barely open, and the whole style looks very cute.
Moreover, due to the laziness caused by the hangover and headache, people are even more suspicious that the woman in front of them is a cat spirit.
Casually open the video chat in the communicator.
"Boss Mann, Big Sister and Rebecca are still asleep here. What kind of work is waiting for us..."
"So he was drinking. It looked like he drank a lot."
Hearing this voice that was absolutely different from the boss's, Sasha was slightly stunned.
It was not until he saw Qiao Qiao's face reflected on the communicator that he suddenly realized what a stupid thing he had done and screamed "Ah——"
……
Sasha, who felt that she was not wearing any makeup, yelled, "Ahhhhhh - wait, wait, video chat. Aqiao, give me three more minutes to tidy up."
Qiao Qiao glanced at the panicked look on the other side of the video and was thinking about turning off the communicator first when a short, green-haired girl suddenly appeared in the camera.
"Hey, isn't this the jackal doctor who's always making noises? If you want to invite Sasha out at this time, you have to treat a few of us to dinner."
"Rebecca...chan?"
Qiao Qiao then realized that he had not kept his mouth shut. This statement had reduced his merits by at least a few years.
189. Cyber Qiaoqiao: Whirlpool Gang Territory, my conversion efficiency is too slow
"Oh, if you suddenly call me so intimately, Sasha will be jealous, don't you think so, Sasha hehe."
Rebecca grinned, seeming a little happy, and there was another round of laughter while she and Sasha were fighting for the communicator.
Qiao Qiao saw it clearly.
"If I didn't know what Rebecca did later, I would never have thought that crazy girl Rebecca would unexpectedly have the radiance of a mother."
Throughout Cyberpunk Edge Runner, it can be said that if the audience was attracted by Lucy in the first six episodes, then they will definitely be attracted by Rebecca in the following episodes.
However, Rebecca's fate definitely caused endless pain to his fans.
Just when everyone thought that this crazy girl full of maternal love would keep her promise, retreat from the Desolate Tower, and perhaps even become a DLC character for the 2077 game, she was suddenly killed by Adam's hammer.
It feels like using a spoon to dig a hole in the audience's heart.
The hole was extremely deep and terrifying, and the bleeding would not stop. It took several days to heal.
This has also caused cyberpunk games to become popular again, with the spectacular scene of people all over the world shouting "Adam, hammer me to death!" every day.
There's probably enough dead Adam hammers to fill up Night City.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qiao looked towards the deserted tower not far away inexplicably.
"How about I go kill Adam Hammer to help out?"
……
Qiao Qiao and Mann's team have a relationship, but it is mostly business related.
After seeing Qiao Qiao's craftsmanship, his team leader Mann became a regular customer of Qiao Qiao.
And in Qiao Qiao's opinion, Mann is also a very special guy.
He equips himself with prosthetics like a madman, without considering whether his brain can withstand the burden.
As a prosthesis doctor, of course I support my clients to install more prostheses.
But as a human being, Qiao Qiao naturally felt that the big man should unload these things and go back to have a good rest.
"I've taken care of it. It's rare that you come to see me. What's going on?"
Sasha, who snatched back the communicator, was breathing heavily and his face was flushed.
In fact, Qiao Qiao didn’t really care whether the other person was well behaved when talking to him.
After all, most people live one day at a time in this terrible world.
Getting drunk in broad daylight, doing unspeakable things on the street, or even exchanging gunfire during the day are common occurrences. No one knows when and where people fall down, so etiquette and the like have become unnecessary.
"I want your help in finding the whereabouts of the Uzumaki Gang."
Among the people Qiao Qiao knows, hackers should have the richest sources of information.
Many of these hackers retired from the criminal business and became intelligence dealers, selling the intelligence they had.
"The Whirlpool Gang? Why are you suddenly concerned about what those crazy people are going to do? I checked, and it seems that someone in the Whirlpool Gang is going to have a party tonight, and someone proudly boasted that he robbed a prosthetic store today and found a very valuable mantis knife inside..."
In a short time, Sasha had found the chat thread of these crazy people.
Her hacking skills are unquestionable.
Mann said that Sasha was the best hacker he had ever seen, even the heroine Lucy was not as good as her.
“Yes, it’s my shop.”
"what!"
Sasha yelled immediately.
"Were you robbed by the Uzumaki Gang? Are you okay?"
Sasha knew that the gang not only robbed people, but also took their body parts. Sometimes, some heavy cyberpunk cyborgs would be completely dismantled when they met the Vortex Gang.
"No one is fine. Can you send me the meeting place of the Uzumaki Gang, please?"
"That's good. I'll send you the address."
After hearing this, Sasha thought that Qiao Qiao was not in the clinic when the Uzumaki Gang committed the robbery.
"But what if Qiao Qiao knows this address? That's the Uzumaki Gang, a bunch of lunatics..." Sasha said.
"Beat them away! Get the things back..." Rebecca shouted.
With a cry of "Wow!", Sasha immediately covered Rebecca's mouth and shouted, "Rebecca, you crazy woman, the Whirlpool Gang is so scary that even Boss Mann can't defeat them. However, we can target those who are alone."
"So, Joe, you're going to hire us? I'm itching to do something."
Rebecca burst into laughter.
Looking at the lively girl with green hair and red pupils in front of him, Qiao Qiao shook his head.
"Thanks, I just want the information, this is the consulting fee."
When Qiao Qiao transferred the funds, there were bursts of exclamations.
"Wow, that's a pretty big tip! Did you send it?"
Rebecca and Sasha knew how stingy the doctor in front of them was.
In this world of drunkenness and dreams, where people live one day at a time, we still think about the issue of retirement.
"I just suddenly realized that in this rubbish world, you will never make money if you behave yourself. Save the extra money, maybe buy some trauma insurance, but don't spend it on drinking. If you drink it all, the wine in your next life will be too bitter."
Qiao Qiao knew.
Don’t be fooled by the energetic Sasha in front of you. Qiao Qiao knows very well that she had a very hard life in the past.
……
As Qiao Qiao turned off the communicator.
Sasha, lying on the sofa, looked at the sudden increase in the balance of his account. For a moment, he felt that something was wrong.
"Ah, Sasha, do you feel something is wrong?"
Rebecca, who appears to be carefree but is actually very thoughtful, couldn't help but ask Sasha a question.
Sasha came back to his senses and said, "Yes, yes. It seems like it's like making arrangements for your funeral. No, I don't mean it to be so unlucky."
"I felt the same way, too. His clinic was robbed, but Joe's reaction was too calm."
Rebecca said.
After a while of communication, Sasha came to a conclusion with his brain which was much smarter than Rebecca's - "He was planning to ambush those Whirlpool Gang members who stole his things by himself."
"With his stingy personality, it's possible...Ah, Sasha, why don't you hire us to help Qiao Qiao rob things."
Rebecca shouted excitedly: "Then, we'll make some money from that stingy doctor!"
……
Northern industrial city area.
This is a place that is very close to the Night City area, but it seems like another world.
A separating street in the middle divides the two worlds.
