Cyberpunk: Nirvana of Shoko Toyokawa

"…What kind of prank are you playing?"

Li Xi, who was half sitting up, was speechless.

"Um... simulated attack training?" Hai Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "Here you go."

She threw the identification instrument to Li Xi.

"Ha..." Li Xi caught it.

"not enough people."

"what?"

"We don't have enough manpower, so I stayed here." Hai Ling said, "And that's why I came to see you."

Hai Ling pointed in the direction of the inside of the venue.

"They're calling for backup," she said. "The forensics department is stuck in traffic and needs more people to scan it. Can you do the brain imaging later?"

"...You won't let me rest for a while, right?"

Li Xi stood up, cursing.

Even so, she responded with support.

Hai Ling pressed the back of her neck and spoke into her brain.

"Area B-4, a Mewtwo Recorder, take it away."

Then he said to Lixi:

"Let's go."

"Okay... got it. Don't rush me." Li Xi scratched his head and walked to Hai Ling.

The two walked side by side and quickly into the venue.

"You really looked like an attacker just now," Lixi said.

"Really?" Hai Ling said, "I was planning to attack you."

"Ha, you sound so serious... Then why did you change your mind?"

"It feels like you'll smell something suspicious and start yelling."

“…Am I a police dog?”

The two of them talked as they walked forward and entered the venue.

After the two people's footsteps gradually faded away, new footsteps were heard from behind.

Chu Hua, wearing a BCPD police uniform and a hat, walked from the back and came to the side of the Super Dream Camera.

She naturally sorted out the external components, gathered and straightened the pulse conductive signal wires, and then picked up the camera.

She walked forward.

Soon, he also walked into the venue, but went to the side.

at the same time.

Temporary rescue area.

There is a huge tent here, and a VA-4 ambulance used by the medical system for rescue is parked here.

Urban healthcare system.

They don't have nanotechnology or custom medical antibodies, and their medical level is about the same as at the beginning of the century. But when you can't afford a trauma emergency team, they are the only ones you can turn to for medical assistance.

They saved the lives of the most citizens of Happy City - although they also killed an equal number of them -

Not many people think it's their fault. But still, not many people take them seriously.

The same is true even for the city’s security system, BCPD, which is in the same situation as them.

Makeshift chairs were pulled onto the waterproof felt in the rescue area, taking up a lot of space. The medical system's paramedics, who were not properly dressed and did not even wear gloves, complained loudly that the BCPD had taken up their space and "did not give them more respect" - but the BCPD officers simply ignored them.

The police officers were running around carrying different models of Super Dream Cameras.

"There's not enough power around here! Someone's running too many devices - it's overloaded!"

The police officers shouted.

"Turn it off, turn it off!" they shouted. "Turn off the VKii machines, too! One by one!"

There were a few people sitting scattered among the noisy crowd.

“Xiao Ai.” The lamp, which was sitting on the felt cloth and connected to the equipment and receiving brain wave recording, looked up apologetically, looked at Ai Yin beside him, and said, “Sorry…”

Her Mewtwo Camera was still usable, but Aine's Mewtwo Camera could not be powered due to insufficient voltage.

“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Aine consoled him, “There are too many devices around here—everyone is recording their brain waves!”

She stood up and, with the help of the police officer next to her, removed the external device.

It can be seen that a large area of ​​emergency hemostatic bandage is fixed on her waist.

Aine’s face turned a little pale.

However, he seems to be in good spirits and there is no major problem.

“It’s okay!” Aine said, “I’ll go find Rikki or Soyorin! It’s just a power outage in the area… They should be fine!”

Aine said as she was about to head towards Exit B.

"Little Love."

Deng called out to Aine at this time.

"Ok?"

Aine turned back.

"…Sorry." Deng apologized again.

"It's just recording brain waves, let the light record first, it's okay~"

Aine said.

"...No." Deng said, "It's about live."

"I'm sorry," she said.

“The explosion in the stadium wasn’t the fault of the lights, was it?” Aine smiled and said, “I’m going to record my brain waves! I’ll be back soon!”

"Small--"

Deng wanted to say something, but Aine had already run away.

……

Aiyin walked all the way to Exit B.

On the road, there were fewer police officers and evacuees. They hurriedly passed by Aine and ran further away.

"……hiss."

My abdomen hurts.

Aine hugged her waist and took a deep breath.

She took a few more steps and gently removed her hands from her sides.

His hands trembled slightly under the spotlight.

"..."

Aine exhaled the air from her lungs.

"very scary."

she whispered.

Frequent terrorist attacks in the City of Music.

I had heard of it before coming to the City of Music.

But being there actually gives you a completely different feeling.

Smoke, explosions, falling ceilings, terrified crowds...

"..."

Aine closed her eyes.

Every time, when you think it’s almost done, you have to get used to the new situation again.

First, it was the use of guns.

Then, there were the street attacks.

From time to time, they actively participate in or are forced to be involved in violent terrorist incidents.

Aine tried hard to adapt, but soon, something bigger would happen—

"——Don't be so depressed!"

Aine slapped her cheek hard.

Haven’t you decided to start over in the City of Joy?

In this world, the only safe place is the place without development.

Isn’t this known?

Now, there are four people from MyGO!!!!! around me—

"it is good."

Thinking of the band, Aiyin felt strong again.

She clenched her fists, encouraged herself again, and turned the corner.

"Rikki~"

Behind the corner is Exit B.

She knew Lixi was here——

however.

"what?"

There is no one at Exit B.

Chapter 160: Entrusted

Huh? No one's here?

Aine was a little surprised.

Isn’t Li Xi guarding here?

Aine turned around.

I didn't see any familiar faces.

She raised her hand, touched her cheekbone with her fingertips, turned on her brain computer, and prepared to communicate and ask for everyone's location.

However, just then.

Aiyin saw a girl with long golden-blue hair walking under the spotlight in front of her.

The girl, like Aine, was wearing Haneoka’s uniform and was looking around awkwardly.

Aine recognized this girl.

"...Ah! You're from the next class—"

Aine called out.

Isn't this Xiangzi, the keyboardist of Crychic, the former band of Deng, Su Shi and Li Xi! ?

A few days ago, I transferred to the class next to Tomo and Aine!
