The giant corporations that started in Night City

"Mr. Li Ang, I still prefer you to call me Lucy. People who often hang out in Night City don't always put their real names on their lips."

Lucy flipped up her short white hair next to her earlobes, staring straight at Li Ang with a pair of breathtaking beautiful eyes. She opened her left palm and dropped a few chips on the cashier.

"These are the Arasaka Company's dog chips you want. There are five in total, one is a lot. Now it's your turn to cash in my personal commission."

Just two days ago, Leon contacted the middlemen in the Heywood District through the underground black market and asked them to give Lucy a hiring mission to steal the dog chip of Arasaka Company.

The only requirement is that Lucy must come to Watson District to meet with her employer in person, and the two parties will complete the business transaction offline.

As for such a lucrative job, which was not very difficult and had a remuneration of up to 5,000 euros, Lucy naturally accepted it happily.

It only took her less than half an hour to complete this task. The most time-consuming part was the journey from Heywood to Watson District.

"Miss Lucy, I admire your professional abilities very much. This time I specially asked someone to contact you to help me. In fact, I only have one purpose, and that is to hope that you will join my camp."

Faced with a smart person like Lucy, Li Ang simply opened the skylight and spoke frankly, directly explaining his needs to the other person.

Regarding Li Ang's olive branch, Lucy seemed to have expected it. She just chuckled a few times, and then asked Li Ang:

"I heard that the new weapons in Dog Town that caused a lot of commotion recently came from you. Is this true?"

Lucy had been guessing about Li Ang's true identity on the way here. She suspected that he was from military technology.

She guessed that Li Ang deliberately made such a big noise in order to let the military technology company's products occupy a place in the Night City.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Li Ang is a member of the Dog Town forces.

"This is true, and I also have a lot of powerful weapons and equipment that you can't think of. I have no other branch in the world."

Li Ang said frankly that sooner or later he would show up and get in touch with some big people, and his status as a big arms dealer was actually a protective color for him.

Lest some blind minions treat him as a newbie and come out for a sneak attack when he is not paying attention.

"Then you...are a military technology person?"

There was some nervousness in Lucy's voice that was difficult to discern, but it was still noticed by Li Ang, and he could understand Lucy's nervousness.

After all, most of the people who work for the company don't end up well. In the end, they are either eliminated by optimization, or they are assassinated by gang members and their money is taken away. Even their bodies are destroyed by scavengers.

In terms of freedom and ease, it would be better to be a mercenary or some kind of mercenary team, and take orders from middlemen to do or not do business. That would be more carefree.

"Miss Lucy, since I am hiring you in the name of LA International Arms Company, it means that I am not a military technology person."

"The only relationship between me and military technology is probably business competitors or partners." Li Ang said with a smile.

After hearing what Li Ang said, Lucy became even more convinced that he had an indescribable relationship with military technology.

After all, except for Military Technology and Arasaka Group, no weapons company really has the ability to create powerful new firearms.

Although companies such as Dara Polytechnic and Constitution Military Industry are also good, their strength is not at the same level as the first two.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in being a company dog. I only take part-time jobs from middlemen. How much I earn depends on my mood."

Just when Lucy was about to refuse Li Ang's invitation, Li Ang raised his hand and interrupted her speech.

"Lucy, don't reject me in a hurry. Let's take a look at the conditions I offer you. I think you will be interested."

After speaking, Li Ang took out a company contract tailor-made for Lucy from the drawer.

In addition to basic salary packages such as an annual salary of 500,000 euros + commission + year-end bonus, there is also medical insurance for the trauma team and one month of paid leave.

There are weekends off, and the working time in a single day does not exceed 6 hours. The more important company team-building welfare project is actually: going to the moon!

The company reimburses all travel expenses!

It has to be said that this is indeed a very exciting condition for Lucy. At this time, she is caught in a dilemma about whether she should agree to Li Ang's invitation.

But if she really joins Leon's camp, what will her friends Mann, Rebecca, Pyrrha, Falco and others do.

"Wait! Something's wrong... How did he know that I wanted to go to the moon?!" Lucy looked up at Li Ang in shock, with strong vigilance in her eyes.

Seeing Lucy's frightened look, Li Ang just said calmly: "Lucy, I know your origins, and I also know that you and Arasaka Company are at odds with each other."

"I even know your dream."

"But now we have a common enemy and a common goal. I am short of manpower right now. If you have trustworthy members, you can also bring them over."

"In short, I have only the most sincere sincerity for you. You don't have to worry about giving me an answer right away, but you must make a decision as soon as possible, because time waits for no one."

After he finished speaking, Li Ang pushed the contract and the latest salary card chip in front of Lucy. He would not force her to stay or go.

Lucy's eyes did not look at the tempting contract, but stared at Leon's eyes tightly, trying to use her sharp eyes to see through Leon's true thoughts.

But unexpectedly, Lucy did not see any uncomfortable malice from the other party, but only a long-lost warm look.

Looking at Leon's cold and familiar Asian face, Lucy had to admit from the bottom of her heart that she was indeed a little moved.

Maybe coming here will have a brighter development prospect for her and the Mann team, and making some changes may not be a bad thing.

"Okay, but I have a request."

After thinking seriously for a moment, Lucy said solemnly.

"You say." Leon nodded. He could fully understand the sensitive and cautious mentality of this bruised girl.

"I will not do any tasks related to the black wall. This is my bottom line!" Lucy's pink pupils flashed a resolute look. If Leon hesitated for a moment, she would leave immediately.

However, to Lucy's surprise, Leon nodded without even thinking, "Okay, I can promise you."

In fact, Leon can fully understand Lucy's fear of the black wall, after all, this is her childhood shadow.

As a hacker carefully trained by Arasaka Company, Lucy has to face the threat of death every day before she reaches adulthood, and fights with the deadly first network virus and wild AI mediation.

This deep fear still haunts Lucy like a nightmare.

Even when she is sleeping, Lucy will be suddenly awakened, so she never wants to touch any tasks related to the black wall again.

"One of the advantages of our LA company is that we will never force employees to do work they don't want to do. Even if you resign and leave, you are free to come and go, and the company will never interfere."
