People are in cyberpunk, but they are top-level cyberpsychopaths

But no one cared about this.

They seemed very busy.

The sweet female voice that occasionally sounded on the radio echoed in this chaotic and busy hall. Every time it sounded, someone could be seen holding a chip used for queuing in the palm of his hand, and the chip lit up slightly, and he was called to the corresponding department.

This is the Watson District Medical Center, which is different from the Redwood Mental Hospital, a no-name hospital where scavengers are piled up everywhere.

It was led by Ye's Enterprises and jointly funded by several giant companies. It is the top medical clinic in the entire Night City.

It was he who brought Pira here, and he drove Mann's sports car all the way here.

There is no way. The noble [saving lives and healing the wounded, money-based] trauma team said that one needs to queue up for an appointment, and if you are not their member, they will generally not go out.

So, he had to drive it here.

Then again, there was no other way to send Pyrrha here. The horrific scar of having half of her face blown off would probably make even Old Wei shake his head when he saw it.

After all, Lao Wei is just an "ordinary" prosthetic doctor who is only responsible for installing implants and treating minor illnesses and injuries.

For a serious injury like this, there is no corresponding equipment, environment or assistants on hand, so surgery cannot be performed at all.

But to be honest, this is his first time here.

It feels...quite novel.

The robots passing by would occasionally offer him a glass of water, but the patients passing by him would choose to take a detour if possible.

The reason is simple, simply because he looks a little scary now.

Although the stains on his face had been washed clean, the mottled bloodstains on his yellow coat had already solidified, and a faint smell of blood was wafting out.

Not to mention that there were two beautiful girls sitting next to him who looked like guardian gods.

The expressionless ice beauty Lucy, and the fierce and crazy loli Rebecca.

The two men sat on his left and right, emitting an aura like that of ferocious beasts, which naturally made the patients feel afraid.

Oh, by the way, there is also Dolio, who is as strong as a man, leaning against the wall.

Mann and Qiwei are cooperating with the NCPD and the Terrorist Squad to take statements.

After all, the scene was a mess and someone had to stay and explain.

So there were only three of them who came here.

However, David, who was sitting on a chair in the waiting area, was a little confused.

Several things that popped up in his mind were entangled together, making him feel uneasy.

The first was the seriously injured Pira. He had clearly tried to change everything, but in the end nothing changed.

According to the doctor, Pyrrha's hope was somewhat slim.

Even if the operation is successful, he will fall into a coma for a long time. Even if he wakes up from the coma, he may not be able to work as a mercenary in the future.

Because the body will show a certain degree of incoordination, it is irreversible permanent damage.

This meant that Pyrrha could no longer participate in the team's activities.

The second is about mother Gloria.

If I had come here instead of sending Gloria to Redwood Psychiatric Hospital, would I have been able to save Gloria?

Although these things were done by his predecessor, they still became the things that made it most difficult for him to let go.

Besides, if he had succeeded in rescuing Gloria, would he take this path again now?

Or will he follow Gloria's wish and continue to stay in school to become a company dog, allowing Katsuo Tanaka to bully him?

Just let those young masters treat you coldly?

Will I still be friends with Lucy like I am now?

he does not know.

(Oh my god...)

And the third and final thing is what Melissa Rory said to him at the scene.

"Well done, clean and neat."

Melissa, the beautiful lady who took off her helmet with an external prosthetic eye like a swordsman, used her old mantis knife to pick at the corpse that was almost minced meat.

Although the body had been beaten to a bloody mess, she was able to identify the fatal blow based on her experience.

The death of this cyber madman was caused by the severing of the nervous system spine behind him.

Although the removal position and technique might be a bit immature, this kind of clean, neat and violent disassembly was the first time she had seen it.

Not only that, a smooth cut can be seen on the cyber madman's left shoulder.

It seems that the arm was cut off by a military-grade combat implant.

Thinking of this, she looked at David with a meaningful look: "How is it, did you feel it? Did you feel the life leaving his body?"

“….!!”

Mann and the others looked at Melissa in disbelief.

For some reason, this ordinary sentence made them feel an inexplicable chill.

And he used such a nonchalant tone to comment on a body that had just been killed.

Is this the Terrorist Mobile Squad?

However, Melissa didn't care about their gazes at all. Instead, she stared at David quietly, waiting for him to give her the answer she wanted.

"I don't understand what you are talking about." He shook his head, denying the woman's statement.

Although what Officer Melissa said was strange, even bizarre, she remained calm.

"Really? That's really a pity."

Although Melissa was a little disappointed that she didn't get the answer she wanted, she slowly revealed a mysterious smile and invited him again.

"Join us, David Martinez. I can see that you and I are of the same ilk."

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always feel that the female police officer deliberately emphasized the last few words.

But Melissa seemed to think that this statement was not enough, and immediately added: "Although you are still a little immature now, I believe that you will grow up soon."

"That's a shame, Officer Melissa." He shook his head again, "You and I are not the same kind of people."

He glanced at the willow-like, sword-like mantis blade on Melissa's arm, and then looked at Melissa's beautiful face again:

"【Higurashi】2013 Mantis Blade, a combat implant that was discontinued in 2069, correct?"

"Hmmm, good eyesight. These were installed many years ago, and I really miss their accuracy."

As she spoke, Melissa involuntarily raised the mantis knife on her arm, her eyes filled with love and nostalgia.

"Really?" He pursed his lips, as if he was thinking about something, and then spoke again: "But as far as I know, this mantis knife does not work well with the neural processor, and it over-stimulates the prefrontal cortex of the brain, so it is no longer sold."

His statement was very euphemistic, but only for those who don't know about this mantis knife.

Those who understand will understand what he said -

This thing was a standard for cyber maniacs N years ago.

The message he wanted to express was...

Don't confuse me with your former cyber lunatic.

Melissa naturally heard the hidden meaning in this, but she did not feel angry at all.

She simply put away the mantis blade on her arm, walked in front of him with her slender legs tightly wrapped in leather tights, and slowly bent down to look at him.

"Do you know why I don't want to change this pair of mantis swords?"

Those bright deep blue eyes were as deep as the ocean, and reflected his slightly childish face.

"Whenever I see them, it reminds me of the muscles, tendons, bones... and implants they cut through, and it feels so good, like a hot knife cutting through butter."

Although her voice was not loud and was very soft, without any affectation, it was clearly heard by everyone.

Those terrorist members were fine, as they were well aware of the madness of their captain.

But the others were not so happy. They felt a deep chill climbing up their spines and shivered involuntarily.

This woman is a lunatic!

A madman who is even more terrifying than a cyberpunk psychopath!

Even some NCPD people subconsciously moved a few steps backwards, trying to stay away from this female devil.

What they didn't know was that when Rosa said these words, there was even a slight red glow in her eyes.

It is also fortunate that this is not a fantasy world but a science fiction world, otherwise Melissa would probably have illusions of mountains of corpses and seas of blood behind her.

"But you can only be a good person now, right?"

David's question and his unmoved expression made the red light in her eyes disappear immediately. She nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you are right."

But suddenly he changed the subject:

"So, you want to join us? We really need people like you."

"..."

He stared into Melissa's bright eyes for a moment and couldn't help but sigh.

This is the third time I have heard this sentence.

Once on the Skyrail, and twice today.

"Officer Melissa, why am I so persistent? Killing a cyber madman? I'm sure there are many people in Night City who can do that."

Joining the Terrorist Mobile Team is equivalent to becoming a civil servant, and it is also equivalent to holding on to Ye's Enterprise, a stronghold that can compete with the three major companies.

But now he really doesn't have such an idea.

Moreover, he was even more curious about what this woman, Melissa Rory, really thought.

"You are right, but..."

Melissa's voice suddenly stopped, and she whispered in his ear, "You really don't like to feel someone's death? At that moment, his blood still has temperature... but his life has been extinguished."

"That kind of pleasure, that kind of excitement, can you really refuse it?"

Melissa's words lingered in his ears like the devil's whispers, humming and echoing in his heart.

That feeling... Thinking back carefully, destroying a complete entity with your own hands, that adrenaline rush is really great.

But in fact, Melissa's words were nothing, not even a temptation, and could not affect him at all.

What matters most is what the other person says next.

"Believe me, you will become like me sooner or later."

"Become... like her?"

David, sitting in the chair, couldn't help but murmur these words aloud, but they were drowned out by the noise of the stretchers passing by and the sound of the broadcast.

So, I will eventually become a woman...?

Damn... isn't this a bit too creepy?!

He even shuddered at this.

However, what he didn't notice was that the ever-changing expressions on his face were all seen by Lucy beside him.

Just quietly observing him in the dark.

She didn't know since when, but her eyes couldn't leave this young man.

Until now....

51. Eat people without leaving any bones (5//13) Please order first

"Ding!"

The red light in the operating room suddenly went out, which immediately caught their attention.

A doctor in a white coat and full surgical gear pushed open the door and walked out.

But because the door closed so quickly, I couldn't see what was going on inside.
