In Night City, I was picked up by a female V

Open your eyes.

Bai Rui clasped his five fingers together and lifted himself up into the air.

A faint blue power flashed, and several empty metal cans actually floated up from the ground and hovered in the air as if pulled by some invisible force.

As Bai Rui clenched his five fingers, blue arcs that seemed to be there and not there entangled in the air. The invisible huge force twisted and squeezed the metal barrel into a lump of iron less than the size of a fist with a sharp creaking sound.

His hands loosened, the invisible force dissipated, and the lump of iron fell to the ground with a clang.

Bai Rui's pupils trembled and he looked at his hands in disbelief.

"Test!"

what is this.

Psychic power!?

"I see!"

Anders' frenzied voice startled several people.

"It must be the strange magnetic field of the metal that gave Bai Rui some properties, allowing her to operate a similar 'mass effect field'!"

Anders looked excited and explained very quickly.

"..."

Old Wei and the others looked at each other strangely, but Jack was the first one who couldn't help asking.

"Metal can change people and give them power. Is this... scientific?"

"..."

Now it was Anders' turn to be silent.

The enthusiasm in his eyes faded, and he pushed up his glasses, his tone hesitant.

"Um... Actually, I'm not sure."

"After all, it was just a blind guess on my part."

Make bold assumptions and verify carefully.

At least Anders has achieved half of this scientific research attitude.

In the room, everyone stared at each other in amazement. They couldn't stand it anymore, and then they all stared at the lump of iron on the ground in confusion.

Chapter 303: Fellow villager, I’ll lend you my head for a reward!

Although I feel that everything that happened is outrageous.

But it really happened.

Existence is reasonable.

Several people were forced to accept the fact.

Only Bai Rui still felt that this matter was not simple.

Without him.

There are too many suspicious points from beginning to end.

This "active metal" is such a cool thing, why is biotechnology used to develop such a low-end thing? It is logically correct to use solutions to contaminate humans and turn it into a biological weapon.

But it’s really bad.

Even the farsighted Moritz only wanted to use this thing to achieve his own sewer-smelling goals.

Where did biotechnology get the "active metals"? Is this thing really a product of biotechnology? Does biotechnology know about the existence of "active metals" in solution?

There were so many doubts that Bai Rui didn't dare to relax.

And this matter also involves Ye’s Company.

The first time the blue eyes found themselves was for the matter of solution.

Maybe they know the ins and outs of this thing?

There is.

Why didn't Anders, who was closest to the active metal, fuse it with himself instead?

It can't be that Active Metal likes beautiful girls but not middle-aged office workers.

This reason is ridiculous.

Moreover, when invaded by active metal, the system, which had never made a sound before, issued a rare warning.

When her head was almost blown off, the system didn't say a word.

It's really rare.

In short, there are too many unknown mysteries surrounding this "active metal" that is already in our body.

So Bai Rui decided.

Set aside first.

There was no way, she really didn't know where to start.

Moreover, apart from giving her psychic abilities, this active metal didn't seem to change her in any other way.

Oh, yes, and that funny honeysuckle pattern.

Apart from that, her eating, drinking and entertainment were not affected, and she did not grow any extra tentacles.

I can only put aside my doubts for now.

She had better things to worry about now.

Arasaka Yorinobu's request.

This old guy Arasaka Yorinobu has left himself with a difficult problem that is not too big.

Kill a traitor of Arasaka Corporation secretly without exposing yourself, especially without exposing that this matter is related to Arasaka Corporation.

Logically speaking, in Night City, with the power of Arasaka Corporation, they can kill anyone they want. Why would they need to be so sneaky?

The only thing that can make a giant company so cautious is another giant company.

This is the case.

A former high-ranking executive of Arasaka Corporation was named Gordo Putnam.

This Putnam is no simple man. He worked his way up from a researcher to a senior executive of the company.

Before defecting from Arasaka, this guy was in charge of a project called "Brain in a Vat".

As the name suggests, it is a project to study the human brain.

It sounds very cult.

There is also a story behind why Putnam defected.

Putnam was once Lai Xuan's good friend, at least Lai Xuan himself always thought so.

When he defected from the company and chose to fight against his father, Lai Xuan also sought help from his friends who were still in the company, including Putnam.

Putnam agreed on the surface, but in fact he had already informed Saburo Arasaka, causing all of Rai Xuan's few friends in the company to be exposed and ordered to be executed by Saburo.

Putnam rose to a high position in the company by selling out his friends for personal gain.

Lai Xuan only understood after suffering such a tragedy.

Putnam didn't consider him a friend at all, he just tried to curry favor with him because of his previous position.

When Lai Xuan defected from the company and could no longer bring benefits to Putnam, he chose to betray without hesitation.

This is a guy who will do anything to get to the top.

So when Saburo died and signs of Yoshinobu coming to power began to emerge, the old man decisively defected and sought shelter from a military technology company that could directly confront the Arasaka Corporation.

Putnam escaped at a time when the company was in turmoil.

Lai Xuan had endured for so long, allowing this enemy to live under his nose.

Now that he is in charge of the company, if he were still alive.

Then he is the CEO of the company in vain.

Lai Xuan was afraid that even Niao Niao would not be happy that such a blood feud with an enemy was still alive and he could not take revenge.

But his foundation in Arasaka is not stable now, and there are countless eyes staring at his position. He does not dare to risk going to war with military technology by forcibly assassinating Putnam.

So this job fell on Bai Rui.

As a test for her and the Hive by Lai Xuan.

Bai Rui still feels a little pressured about this.

One is that the target is smart and must know that there is a Arasaka Yorinobu who wants to kill him day and night. As long as he is not stupid, he will most likely not reveal obvious flaws.

One is that Bai Rui is once again trying to pull his teeth out of the company's jaws.

Last time at the Ganbi Building, the three of them almost played ball.

V even paid the price of losing half of his tailbone.

This time, military technology must not be underestimated.

The plan to assassinate Putnam has to be carried out slowly.

So Bai Rui called Roger.

If you encounter problems in Night City, how can you not call the "Queen of the Afterlife"?

Missing person notices, lost pets, property deeds, bruises and sprains, cupping and acupuncture...big or small, just look for Roger, the middleman among middlemen.

And most importantly, Rogge is very tight-lipped, much tighter than his subordinates, so he is not afraid of any news leaking out.

Not to mention the war with the Tiger Claw Gang, Roger was the first to support them.

As long as he has Johnny in his hands, he can play the emotional card with Rogge to his heart's content.

"..."

After listening to Bai Rui's request, Roger was rarely silent for a while.

It took a long time before he spoke.

"You guys really want to get going because you think your life is too long."

"The last time we fought the Tiger Claw Gang, they were so exhausted that they started to think about using military technology just a few days later."

"Are you planning to assassinate Miles tomorrow?"

"Poke, this time it's a personal vendetta. The Putnam family's dog peed on my pants when I was walking by. How can I hold back on this?"

"..."

"I'm hanging up."

"Hey, don't, don't, don't!"

"I can't do anything about it. In Night City, if you don't move up, you'll be kicked down. This world is so cruel."

"Besides, there are too many people in Night City who want to kill us. If we don't work harder, we will be helpless if they come knocking on our door."

Rogge was silent for a while, but finally agreed to Bai Rui's request.

Of course, Bai Rui's persuasion was useless. She just thought the girl was too noisy.

"I'll need some time. The person you want to investigate is not an ordinary citizen."

"of course."

Bai Rui hung up the phone happily.

Well, she is really good at talking.

It was so easy for Rogge to agree.
