But the deeper you look, the more he rejects his actions as a soul who grew up 50 years ago.

To be precise, this is a kind of anxiety from the inner moral level.

"I don't know about Armstrong, can you give me some advice..."

David let out a breath and leaned back in his chair, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

From a purely technical point of view, 'Armstrong' could not help him much. The former master hacker and mentor of newcomers had already been left far behind by his intelligence as high as ten points and his Lv6 computer expertise.

But in other places, David still wondered what he would think and evaluate.

However, after waiting for about 10 minutes, 'Armstrong' still did not reply.

David stretched himself, stood up from the chair, walked out of Room 1242, and walked down the old stairs to the yard full of household garbage and scrapped vehicles.

For the past few days, every day when he went to school, David would implant a puppet in Tanaka, check the communication records, and then carefully delete the traces.

Just yesterday, he finally got what he wanted. Tanaka made an appointment with a classmate to go to 'Genting' after the lockdown ended.

"Yunding..."

David got into the 'little mule', and the memories of his previous life flooded out.

This is a night club located in a super skyscraper in the west of Japan Street. It has top-notch Mewtwo and sex doll services. It is one of the locations of the main plot in the 2077 game. David is quite familiar with it.

Not only that, but it is also very close to Lucy's home.

Opening the map in his mind, David first marked the navigation route to Yunding, and then moved the interface up, staying on the Japan Street apartment across the street from Yunding.

The red dot representing Lucy's real-time location is quietly staying here at the moment.

"I don't know if I will meet her this time..."

While thinking about it, the 'little mule' started amidst the roar of the engine.

David left Watson District from Pinewood South Street, headed south all the way, passed by the Cherry Blossom Market, and soon came to the west of Japan Street across the bridge from Company Square.

He slowed down by the river outside his apartment on Japan Street, stopped next to an oriental gazebo, and looked out the window.

A building with an orange square frame and a blue spherical balcony appeared before the eyes, and a signboard with the words 'MINNIE DAYS' was hung on the highest point.

This is the apartment where Lucy lives.

The corners of David's mouth turned up slightly, recalling how he played the game again after watching the Edgewalker anime, and then found this place, jumping around on newsstands and building gaps.

However, there was no room in the game where Lucy was, and he could only find a platform with the same line of sight. At this time, the beautiful girl with short white hair stayed inside, only a few hundred meters away from him.

David chuckled and shook his head, restarting the car.

At this time, a prompt came out of the brain computer, and Armstrong replied to the message.

"Your idea currently only exists in theory. Even Batemoss, Murphy... these top hackers don't have this ability. The company has experiments to manipulate the brain and behavior, but it can't do remote control at present, and there are Many problems are easy to see through."

Uh, but I have already made the puppet...

David blinked, but remembered something else.

In the 2077 game, there is a mysterious Mr. Blue Eyes who can easily manipulate other people's brains and modify other people's memories, even the mayor of Night City, who is in a high position, is not immune.

In a sense, what I'm doing is very similar to blue eyes.

However, the opponent has gone further on this road and has bigger plans.

Just when he was distracted, another message came from 'Armstrong' in his brain.

"As for what you're worried about, we're already living in a world where everyone is being manipulated, aren't we?"

Indeed, this is 2075...

David exhaled and immediately realized the problem.

Even if he could kill people without any fluctuations in his heart, even if he had a system, he still hadn't fully integrated into this world.

Freedom, dignity, these things that people pursued in the previous life, are an unattainable luxury in today's era where capital controls everything, resistance fails completely, and people are no longer human.

Even living is very difficult, and who would care about those little episodes on the moral and ethical level?

To the moon: "Thank you, I feel that my thoughts are much smoother."

After replying this sentence, David turned his direction and slowly drove towards the other end of the super skyscraper in Japan Street.

At the same time, the communication between the brain and the computer has not stopped.

Armstrong: "Small things, as long as you can figure it out."

Armstrong: "By the way, be careful recently, a new face has appeared in Night City, and he is a very powerful hacker."

To the Moon: "New faces?"

Armstrong: "Well, according to the grapevine, it's Valentino's gang, but no one's ever seen him before, it's like he just popped out of nowhere."

ps: On the first day of release, there will definitely not be only one or two chapters. I will spend the whole night writing and posting as much as I want.Well, it’s still the same, everyone can watch it together tomorrow morning~

Volume 59: Chapter 58 Chapter [-]: Acquaintances

Seeing the message from Armstrong in his brain, the expression on David's face froze slightly.

This description sounds familiar...

To the Moon: "Ugh, why be careful, did this guy do anything?"

Armstrong: "He managed the security system of the Tiger Claw gang by himself, without leaving any clues... In short, he is a very powerful hacker, and I have inside information that he may have a mental illness and a psychopath."

David: ? ? ?

Go to the moon: "No, please make it clear, what is a psychopath?"

Armstrong: "I just like to play with the enemy and so on. You understand that cats and mice? It's actually very common. Many people are not healthy these days."

The corners of David's mouth twitched slightly, falling into a state where he really wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything.

No, what kind of image was described to me!

Go to the moon: "Well... this should be a lot of confidence in myself, but I think this guy's approach is very cool."

Armstrong: "Maybe, it's never a mistake to be careful anyway."

After this sentence, neither of them spoke again.

David scratched his head in embarrassment, and parked the 'little mule' on the roadside one street away from the super skyscraper.

He was obviously hiding himself deliberately, but this improvised hacker identity was somehow famous, and he was even suspected of being a psychopath.

Where is the problem...

Sighing, he leaned on the back of the driver's seat, closed his eyes slightly, and connected to the network of 'Cloud Top'.

Yunding's firewall is very fragile, and it took less than 2 minutes for David to break through the defense and hack into Yunding's system.

He was not surprised by this. In fact, in the game 2077, Evelyn Parker, Genting's top sex doll, suffered from Genting's fragile network protection, and was directly burnt out by the hackers of the Voodoo Gang.

Although she did not die on the spot, what she encountered later was probably more sad than death.

But now, in the eyes of David, who had seized the monitoring network of Genting, Evelyn with short blue hair was walking into a certain private room in the VIP area with a man in extraordinary clothes.

David had no interest in this charming woman or what happened in the private room. After quickly browsing the composition of the security personnel and the building structure, he hacked into Yunding's database.

After only watching for a few minutes, he sneered and shook his head.

"Sure enough, accessing any unfamiliar network is very risky, and it can even be said to be an act of death..."

Genting’s database does not just store guests’ preferences and basic body data in an encrypted form as they claim, but reads more things, including some memories and prosthetic bodies that most people will never tell others information.

In addition, the process of the guests having fun here is also recorded. Considering that the Tiger Claw Gang is behind Yunding, it is not difficult to imagine what these things will be used for.

In the database, David saw the councilors of Night City, the senior police inspector of ncpd... and other big figures, and the gameplay and objects are quite exciting.

"Without post-processing, it can be sold directly as a film."

As a former black super dream dealer, David commented authoritatively.

However, he didn't linger on these extremely valuable things, and quickly found Tanaka's information through searching.

"Studying at Arasaka Academy, my father is a management member of Arasaka Company... 31 consumption records, love for sex doll A18... like feet, often use props..."

After recording Tanaka's information, David began to leave a back door and puppet in Yunding's network, which can be detected as soon as Tanaka enters here.

Everything is ready, just waiting for Tanaka to end the grounding...

At this time, David suddenly heard a bang.

He suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from the dive.

In the first few seconds, David thought that someone had discovered his intrusion and locked his position. He immediately grabbed Sijibao who was beside him, and then turned his neck to check the surrounding situation.

His eyes swept across the rearview mirror, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and his body relaxed.

The delicate smiles and gasps of the two women came from the outside of the rear of the car.

Judging from the outline of the shadow, it was a female couple who were making out regardless of the occasion. Because of the anti-peeping one-way film attached to the window of the 'Little Mule', they failed to notice that there was a person sitting in the car.

Immediately afterwards, when David saw the faces of the two women, a strange smile appeared on his face.

Among them, the one on top was wearing a red leopard-print top and a wrap-around skirt, with extremely abrupt dark blue lipstick on her lips.

And the one below her was wearing a gray umbilical suspender and black leather pants, with short green and purple hair dyed to one side, and her pretty face, which was handsome enough to be called handsome, was slightly flushed.

It turned out to be them, Maiko Maeda and Judy Alvarez, both old acquaintances in the 2077 game.

In 2077 of the game plot, the two of them have broken up, and David is quite aware of the experience of the pair of enemies.

Maiko Maeda, Judy's ex-girlfriend is a very powerful woman. She used to be an ordinary sex doll in Genting, but with her smart head and strong perseverance, she became the actual manager of this top nightclub.

As for Judy, needless to say, as one of the attackable characters in the game, before the Edgewalker animation came out, many people chased her and called her wife.

In David's view, their future breakup was doomed.One has climbed from the bottom to the top, always yearning for power, while the other has a sense of pure kindness and justice. This kind of personality conflict is quite fatal for couples.

Watching the two bodies gradually fit together, David thought of another thing.

Judy is the top Mewtwo editor in Night City. If she wants, she can join the entertainment department of any company, and she can directly get the top salary.

I also thought earlier that through Chaomeng editing and powerful computing power, a person's personality can be completely reshaped within a week, but it didn't take long before I met a top Chaomeng master.

How do you say, someone sent a pillow just after dozing off?

David lowered his gaze and sighed softly.

However, the current Judy is not suitable for contact.

She's still in the middle of her love affair with Maiko Maeda, and hasn't had enough social beatings yet.

Now Judy is still immature, just a talented and passionate artist.Moreover, now and in the future, her brain is not very smart, and she has a naivety that Night City cannot tolerate. The failure of the liberation of Genting organized by her later also proved this point.

If it is not necessary, David would rather never get in touch with her. Apart from not wanting to completely change Judy's mind, he also does not want this innocence to be completely destroyed.

All he can do now is to watch the two girls embrace each other, the tighter and tighter their hands...

ps: reluctantly deleted 200 words of description

Volume 60: Chapter 59 Chapter [-]: Not Enough

Three days later, at four o'clock in the afternoon.

David walked out of the college's electronic library quickly, leaving Arasaka College on foot as he would do every day, and then went to the station, took the Metro Express back to his apartment in Santo Domingo.

After closing the electronic door and leaving the range of the cameras in the corridor, he quickly took off his academy uniform and dragged out a cardboard box from under the bed.

There were a few loose and thick clothes on the top. After wearing them, David's body size increased dramatically, from a little thinner to a little fatter.

He put on a hood, sunglasses, and gloves, and replaced his shoes with a battered leather boot.

The entire set was purchased from various thrift stalls, and David even hacked a nearby camera while purchasing so that no one could trace the identity of the purchaser.

He stood in front of the mirror and took a picture. After confirming that he had completely changed, he picked the right time to pause the camera in the corridor, and then strode out of the apartment.

A moment later, David appeared on the street downstairs and got into a green Tingwei Galina sedan-this was also a temporary rented car.

Glancing at the laptop on the co-pilot's seat, David stepped on the accelerator and drove to the west of Japan Street, downstairs of the skyscraper where Yunding is located. This time he chose another remote alley.

"Maybe it's time to upgrade the puppet in this area, and there are professional equipment..."

After stopping the car, David connected his brain computer and laptop together, and sighed helplessly.

It is somewhat inconvenient to disguise like this now. Both Lucy in the animation and V in the game have demonstrated the ability to make surveillance and prosthetic eyes invisible, but David has too many things to do, so he has never taken this into consideration.
