Cyberpunk: Nirvana of Shoko Toyokawa

【LOCK: Yes.】

【MASKING: ...Why is it so close to the inner point? 】

[MASKING: Isn't that already very close to the BCPD's holding area... Hey, no, this is already considered to be within the BCPD's holding area, right?]

[LOCK: Is it as Layer said...?]

[LOCK: When we couldn't find him in the sewer in the [residential area], Sister LAYER said that he must have been taken away by the BCPD.]

【MASKING: Ha. I never thought that the things I built would one day fall into the hands of BCPD. 】

[MASKING: Fortunately, what was not recovered was my [Linear Frame Ω], which does not contain much information. ]

【MASKING: If the DTM of CHU^2 was not recovered on that day, it would be a disaster. 】

[LOCK: Well, you can’t say that…]

[MASKING: So, how to recover it now? Before coming out, CHU^2 was still jumping up and down, saying that if the things were taken by the BCPD and it took her so long to find them, she would shoot all the BCPD in this area. ]

【LOCK: Ha, haha...Layer and PAREO won't let CHU^2 do this...Anyway, let's report back first?】

[LOCK: According to the way Sister LAYER does things, she should want to take advantage of the conflict between the BCPD and the refugees to attack from the rear and get the [Linear Frame Ω] back...]

【MASKING: Well. Let’s leave it like this for now. 】

[MASKING: ...By the way, there is still no biological reaction? ]

【LOCK: Yes.】

[MASKING: Is this basically confirmed now? ]

[LOCK: Hmm…]

【MASKING: Never mind. If we didn’t catch him at that time, this matter would have nothing to do with us. 】

【MASKING: Go back soon. I'm not like those weird-headed guys in Morfonica who like to wander around this area. 】

[MASKING: Let’s finish this soon so we can go back to our [Reclaimed Land] sooner. We haven’t figured out the other bands and Fengchuan’s affairs yet, so we dare not stay in a place without signal for too long…]

【MASKING: Well, at least back then, the local network wasn’t filled with garbage. 】

【LOCK: Ah, ahahaha……】

Then, the sound of a motorcycle starting was heard from the radio.

The sound of the motorcycle gradually faded away.

In the radio, believer J018 reported quietly that "the personnel have left the detection range" and then cut off the communication.

Chapter 352 RAISE A SUILEN

Communications were cut off.

In the room on Ave Mujica, Shoko stood next to the radio.

The snowflakes on the transmitter screen were reflected on her face.

"MASKING, LOCK..."

Xiangzi knew these codes.

In the City of Music, not everyone uses Japanese names.

there are many reasons.

Trendy parents, second identities, changing online names to official ones...

Just like Xiangzi himself.

Although she still uses the name "Shoko", which has become invalid since she was expelled from the Toyokawa family, her citizen ID login name is actually [Oblivionis].

She also used the name [Oblivionis] in her daily interactions with people...including merchants and believers.

The name [Oblivionis] is quite famous.

But when it comes to "the most famous in the City of Music", it's not yet my turn.

Lezhicheng Radio once conducted a survey: they randomly picked someone on the city streets and asked him, "What is the most famous non-Japanese login name of Lezhicheng?"

The result was that 2% of the subjects answered one of LAYER, LOCK, MASKING, PAREO and CHU^.

The 20 percent extra probability is because some respondents had not originally intended to answer the question, but when they heard this question, they turned around and answered it.

This happened because they were fans of the gang band [RAS].

[RAS], full name [RAISE A SUILEN], is one of the two new gang bands born in the City of Music in recent years due to the rise of [Reclamation New Land Phase 1].

The members consist of five people, namely LAYER, LOCK, MASKING, PAREO and CHU^2.

The leader is a DJ named CHU^2, who is very young - a rare DJ who looks and feels really young.

CHU^2 is from Night City, USA.

No one knows why she came to Japan's City of Joy from America's City of Night when she was twelve years old.

All people know is that once she arrived in the City of Music, she threw herself into the music production scene of the City of Music, where the lights are flashing and the crowds are mixed.

With her keen sense of popularity, CHU^2 keeps up with the ever-changing trends and has released many trendy singles as a producer. In just two years, she has become one of the big-name producers.

The City of Music is the City of Dreams.

Perhaps this is even more true for music producers.

As long as you can catch the trend, no matter you are a kitten, a puppy, or even a furry kid who has not even reached the minimum transformation age, you can grasp enormous wealth.

only……

This music producer’s dream city is also the dream city of gangsters.

In this city of dreams, it is a little difficult to keep your wealth.

CHU^2's fame is growing.

The number of people targeting her is increasing day by day.

Fraudulent companies. Competitors whose niches have been squeezed out. Crazy people who are jealous of property and want to take risks. Security companies that see the emergence of the former and come to make money.

Security expenses are increasing.

But it can only buy temporary peace and cannot bring real stability.

On the contrary, it is just a temporary solution and will only lead to more troubles.

It was during this period that the [Phase 1 of Reclamation Land] was completed.

CHU^2 smelled this opportunity with her keen nose for opportunities that made her famous in the music production field.

The real stability is the stability of having control over their own regions like the [Five Major Groups].

Only by having your own thugs and your own territory can you solve these problems once and for all and achieve that kind of stability.

And, there's more money.

CHU^2 spent a lot of money to recruit a group of talents.

Among them, there are veteran fighters who can play music and have rich experience as mercenaries, as well as young people who have just emerged, have talents and have a bright future.

She invested all her savings of the past two years into this transformation. She spent money like water and packaged these talents in all aspects.

This includes purchasing the best weapons, equipping the best prosthetics and systems, using the best training chips to retrain in performance and combat, changing the original names of different styles into more eye-catching unified codes with all capital letters, and so on.

It turns out that there is nothing that money can't buy.

CHU^2 formed this galactic battleship named RAS in a very short time.

The result was undoubtedly a success.

RAS wiped out most of the bandits in [Phase 1 of Reclamation Land] in a very short period of time and incorporated them into its ranks. For a time, it became the most powerful force.

It didn't even take them much effort to repel and disperse the gang members sent by the [Five Major Groups] to investigate [Phase 1 of Reclamation New Land] and try to settle down and become spies.

The people from the [Five Major Groups] are no more than this!

The smooth progress made CHU^2 arrogant. Although she was already very arrogant due to her long-term achievements.

After taking over [Phase 1 of Reclamation Land], CHU^2 did not evacuate, reorganize or restructure its own military forces, but instead took the opportunity to expand its armaments again.

At that time, the conflict between the two gang bands Roselia and Afterglow reached its peak. The two bands had friction on each other's border.

CHU^2 seized this opportunity.

She was sure that Afterglow would support them, so she openly declared war on Roselia.

RAS led the army to attack, attempting to destroy part of Roselia's industrial chain, transfer these industries - very profitable high-tech industries - to its own territory, and turn them into the characteristic industries of [Phase 1 of Reclamation New Land].

They even put forward a slogan internally at this time: "End the era of girl bands with the best music they produce", which clearly showed their ambition to take over the entire city of music.

They were secretly planning and trying out bold plans, such as getting Poppin'Party's Hanazono Tae to join RAS and other plans to conquer other big groups.

But in the end, everyone saw it.

I hit a wall at the first stop.

Roselia is not someone you can easily pick on.

Roselia and Afterglow will have long-term friction at the border, not because they are incapable of solving many problems, but simply because they do not want to deal with the possible bad consequences.

Now, a group of young and inexperienced people took this as their weakness and brazenly stepped into their territory, trying to take away their things.

...then they don’t mind conducting the “new employee education” themselves.

Chapter 353 Newcomer Education

Roselia unreservedly poured out her cold anger on the RAS who had entered their territory.

There was something about RAS. They were able to resist it at first.

But after Rinko Shirogane went around behind them and destroyed their main server, RAS was finally defeated due to the failure of its self-developed high-end brain-computer management software, which led to a complete loss of control over its personnel.

RAS was forced to return [Phase 1 of Reclamation Land].

But Roselia did not let go of the young band.

They chased in and took the land from the RAS.

If this continues, Roselia will take over a large piece of [Phase 1 of Reclamation Land] territory from RAS.

It's not just RAS that can be affected by this.

Afterglow, who is also one of the [Five Major Groups], will be sandwiched between their long-time enemy due to this territorial change.

Afterglow had to fight back at this time and expel Roselia from [Phase 1 of Reclamation Land].

Roselia had anticipated this.

They launched a blitzkrieg and attacked very quickly.

Afterglow entered the game too late, and the opponent took over the rhythm.

The fight ended with a huge explosion in the cage area of ​​[Phase 1 of Reclamation New Land].

Roselia lost some of her troops, some of the men who fought for them.

Afterglow was much worse off than them: [Big Shots] Uehara Himari and Ueda Gawa Tomoe were nearly killed in the explosion and almost could not be rescued.

But looking at the entire turf war, RAS suffered the greatest losses.

The five members of RAS were seriously injured to varying degrees, and PAERO even fell into a coma due to the brain-computer war between hackers. They lost more than 30% of their subordinates. The self-developed management software and intelligent weapons were also completely paralyzed, and the codes were thrown behind the black wall.

For several months, RAS completely lost control of [Phase 1 of Reclamation New Land].

RAS used commercial means to recruit subordinates. The stickiness of their subordinates was not very high. More subordinates left them during this period than the number of casualties.

At its worst, RAS lost nearly everything.

They went from being the most powerful people in the world to being the rats crossing the street who could only hide in the depths of [Phase 1 of Reclamation New Land], avoiding the anger of Roselia, Afterglow and even the other three big teams.

However, for some unknown reason, the core members of RAS, who were recruited for money and benefits, did not leave CHU^2 because of this tragic failure.

Because of this, CHU^2 did not end up like those other guys who became arrogant after becoming rich in the City of Music, and ended up with their heads and bodies separated and finally found in the garbage dump.
