because i am stel

If the previous action may be a pretense for a certain purpose.So now, what is revealed from her actions is the sentimentality caused by her true emotions - her eyes are slightly red, and her upturned face hangs down.

"Really..." Her voice was a little low. "Sirtel... You must have contributed a lot to the news you shared. How can I... how should I repay you?"

"I didn't actually do much. They forgive you. The more reason is that the mistakes you committed are not so serious that even they can't forgive them. However, if you really want to repay me..."

The fiery-haired Sarkaz tilted his head, and handed an ice cream in the handbag to Tallulah in front of him.

"I bought two more ice creams and left one for Alina. You can eat this one for me. I'm already full and I don't bother to get it."

"Sirtel..." The dragon girl held the ice cream with complicated eyes - the style of the ice cream is very simple, but the taste is exactly what Tallulah likes.

In the wilderness of the North, ice cream is a food that does not appear in the recipe.Dragon Girl remembered that she only casually mentioned her favorite flavor in front of Shirtel once.

That was three years ago, an event that couldn't be smaller.Even this detail, however, was not forgotten by Miss Steele.

"You've said before that ice cream is important to you. You'll even fight over ice cream that tastes right."

"Well, I did say that." Miss Stelter knocked on her forehead, and the handmade Haagen-Dazs made by Teresia flashed in her memory. "Ice cream can calm my emotions, so I need it... So what? Tallulah, don't you like ice cream?"

"No, I like it very much." Tallulah held the ice cream, returned to the woven bag and pulled the lace of the woven bag from the inside. "Please take me away, Shirtel. My future is entrusted to you."

"Don't say such heavy words casually!"——You should tell Alina about this, and you won't be afraid of being misunderstood by her!

The flaming-haired girl complained casually, but did not get an answer.So she shrugged and put another ice cream on the table.Lift the woven bag and move towards the outside direction.

Alina still didn't show up.

And she also tacitly didn't ask Tallulah about Alina—although she didn't know what the two guys were fighting for.But it doesn't seem to be harmful to other people so far, so she decided to cooperate for the time being.

She left the clinic.

..............................

At the same time, in the distance, the upper end of a building beyond the normal perception range of Shirtel.Elafia, named Alina, looked away from the monitor.

"Sure enough, what Tallulah said is right. Al has a special liking for the fragile appearance of strong women. Although this is a bit sorry for Al. But... when striving for happiness, one must be bold and aggressive."

"You may not be able to fool her." A cold voice came from the side, and the owner of this voice provided remote monitoring equipment and a hidden place.

There is only one person who can do this kind of thing at this point in time in this city.

Persephone.

The only one who could offer an invitation was Persephone.

The little deer turned around gracefully and looked at the assisting person who appeared in front of him.

"It doesn't matter if you cheat, Al will find his own reasons. After all, she has always been like this—and, hasn't her goal been achieved. Xiaota successfully got close to Al, and I also proved to you that she did have something Likes. Besides, it doesn't really matter whether I can build a strong personality for myself by the way."

"And." She tapped her lips lightly. "It's too much to deceive Al. This kind of clumsy disguise and excuses can only, and only need to fool Xiaota for a while--let's take it as my punishment for her. After all, in the clinic before What you did was really worthless.”

"I have to remind you that the relationship between you and Tallulah is at a disadvantage in this war. Shirtel hates being a third party."

"That can't be helped. But if you don't try hard, how will you know that the disadvantages will not turn into advantages? There are many amazing things buried in Al's heart. Although she has been suppressing them all the time, she will not let them burst out. But when the time is right, maybe everything will change."

"Since you know, that's good." Persephone nodded slightly. "Your application has been approved, Ms. Alina. Next, I will arrange an opportunity for you and that Ms. Tallulah to work with Shirtel. I hope you can... grasp it well."

....................................

I found three interesting things

First, I recommend

Second, I already have 2077 preloaded in my computer

Third, I have not used the leave request this month.

Memory Fragment · 2077

——Timeline, unknown.

Miss Shirtle opened her eyes suddenly, and what caught in her eyes was a silver mirror shining with electronic brilliance—and inside the mirror was a familiar face that she was familiar with.

Long dark red hair, sharp eyes, a straight nose, and a slender neck—very well, it's me.It seems that this time the dream world is a high-tech world.And the name of this dream world is——

She glanced at her hands—implants, prosthetics, brain-computer interfaces, great, cyberpunk.

Cyberpunk 2077?Big company start?

——Then, is this body of mine the heroine of the game in this world?

[Ms. Surtur, the president has an urgent task for you. 】

There's electronic communication coming from the implant, and it's clear that the shell's name is Surtur and not V, the game's default protagonist name—good thing, it's a comfortable thing to use your real name.Although the angle of deflection of the plot may become a bit strange, she has always been indifferent to that kind of thing.

So Ms. Stelter decided on the location with ease——she has been to the Cyberworld a lot, and she knows everything about the Matrix, Ghost in the Shell, Blade Runner, and the torn Doom.This kind of brain-computer use is simply an instinctive operation for her, and with a large number of links and data jumping back and forth, a heavily encrypted briefing immediately appeared in her eyes.

--Wow……

The content of the task was unexpected.Rao, even Miss Stelter, who had seen the storm, felt a little surprised in her heart.

But it doesn't matter, since it is a commission, it should be completed.

So she pushed open the door outside the bathroom, and what caught her eyes was a hall of a high-tech building.She saw many soldiers in power armor patrolling the surrounding halls with weapons, while many well-dressed white-collar workers of the new era were being pressed to the ground with guns pointed at their heads.

Obviously, this was a military operation that had ended—when she walked out the door, the nearby soldiers saluted her one after another.

"Take me to meet the master here." Miss Shirter said casually.

"Your will, Ms. Surtur." Immediately, several heavily armed soldiers stepped forward to guide and clear the way for her.

Moving forward, there are traces of gunfire and bones and remains being cleaned everywhere.

Overcoming obstacles one after another, a door that was torn open by brute force came into her vision.

There has been a great battle here, and the result of the war is the defeat of the defenders.She walked into the gate, and what caught her eyes was a man and a woman who were pushed to the ground.

The man seems to be a successful person, but his identity has a vague impression in Ms. Shrter's mind - that is the NPC at the beginning of the game, the protagonist V's supervisor Jenkins.Unfortunately, he is now in an opposing position with Miss Stelter's forces.

Miss Steele made a sign, and the poor man got his lunch.

Then, she bent down in front of the woman who was pushed down, stretched out her fingers, and gently raised the smooth jaw, so that she could look directly at the pretty cheek.

With no facial makeup, no implants, and a simple and clean hairstyle, there is no doubt that this woman has enough natural beauty and is completely in line with Miss Stelter's liking - nonsense, she made her own face, how could she Why she doesn't like it?

"Miss Agent V, is that right?" Stelter said with a light smile, "This company belongs to me from now on. And right now, I am short of a local guide who is familiar with Night City. You... want A new job, or want to follow your ex-boss underground?"

"I'm willing to help you, ma'am." Miss V, who was only one sentence away from dying, nodded without hesitation.

So the soldiers let her go.

"You seem to have some personal affairs." Shirtel turned around and walked towards the French windows.Outside the window, the bustling cyber city reflected colorful lights in her eyes——she waved her hand. "Go ahead, you have five minutes."

Miss Shirter, looking forward to this leisure trip to the dream world.

And in the next second, she heard the call that Miss V connected directly in front of her.

"Ajie, my job has been changed." V said, facing the friend in the communication. "I have to take a distinguished lady on a tour of Night City in 2077."

"So, sorry—"

——"It's too late today."

No.70 Section [-] · There is no such operation anymore!

The way out of the clinic was smooth, with no hindrances, no unexpected strike-ups, and no obstructive guys coming to block the way or pointing fingers—this was a matter of course, a beautiful woman with a big sword floating behind her was holding a knitting It is normal and natural for bags to walk out of clinics that mainly treat infected people.And in this city that will avoid the fate of natural disasters and extinction, there are not many people in the city who are too idle or stupid enough to take the wrong medicine.

The journey was smooth, she walked on the street with a woven bag.

Here, there is still a little distance from Rhodes Island's temporary office, and on the premise that she doesn't intend to directly open an optical shield and fly back, she feels that it may be necessary for her to talk to Tallulah in the bag.

"I have a question," she said, as she entered a deserted street.

"Talulah, why do you insist on hiding in the woven bag?" Shirtel didn't really pay much attention to this question when he spoke. "Isn't it good to go out by yourself? Or, what purpose or plan can you accomplish by hiding in the woven bag?"

In fact, she just said it casually, and the essence was just a small talk like tea.

However, Miss Tallulah may have a different idea from her.

"This... has a purpose." The dragon girl in the bag said in a muffled voice, her voice seemed a little strange because it passed through the woven bag. "When you took me out of the control tower, Shirtel, all my guards knew the fact that you put me in a bag and took me away. And for the future development of the infected, they will inevitably pass this information Spread out among the consolidated remnants."

"The integration movement... must be disbanded. The thoughts and theories I left behind have become poison. They must let go of these residual poisons before they can completely discard the shell of integration, so as to fight for freedom for the infected in the right way. And the easiest way to defeat a person's ideas in the eyes of the ignorant is to first knock down the person's image."

"So, let these people who once followed you wholeheartedly see their former leader being carried away in a bag, is the 'image knocked down' you have chosen?" Shirtel raised his eyebrows slightly.She did notice a number of infected people surreptitiously eyeing her around the clinic.And there are several infected people who have accumulated more power than ordinary warlocks in their bodies.

Even though that was to the extent that she could be crushed with just one finger for Miss Shirtle.

"Hmm." Longnu responded softly in the bag. "This is actually not the best choice. Because some people with bad intentions may use the name of rescuing me or avenging me to gather the remnants of the integration and make trouble. If you can choose a slightly better strategy, then the best thing to do , is to stigmatize the concept of 'Talulah' under the general public."

"...What do you mean?" Miss Shirter tilted her head slightly. "Stigmatization? Proclaiming that 'Talulah' has done some very bad things? And betrayed the interests of the Reunification Movement... something like that?"

"It doesn't have to be that complicated." The dragon girl in the bag shook her head. "People only want to believe what they can see. Talking about it doesn't work."

"Then what are you going to do?"

Shirtel, harvested about ten seconds of silence.

Then, she heard the slightly shy answer from the girl in the bag.

"Break my hands and feet, or cause serious injuries to other places..." Dragon Girl's voice was a little strange.

"Huh?"——and Miss Shirter wondered if there was something abnormal about her hearing.

"Then, put a rope or chain around my neck. Drag me through the streets in public, and bring me back to the temporary stronghold in Rhodes Island."

"...You have a problem." Miss Sarkaz, who was inflamed, felt that her three views had been impacted—she was now a little suspicious that Alina had really tickled this guy all day and night—this is so meow. Is it a solution that a normal person can think of?

"I think your plan is very nonsense. I would rather believe that you forgot that you can move freely, so you subconsciously got into the bag and now you are too lazy to come out..." Stel rubbed his temples. "...Not to mention how outrageous the idea of ​​this plan is. Don't you think it will arouse the anger of the Infected, and let them riot wantonly in the name of 'the leader is humiliated in the street'?"

"I'll beg you for mercy." Tallulah's voice changed from weird to peaceful, even with a bit of determination. "I'll be crying and begging like a squishy worm. I'll be lying on your feet and licking your boots, begging you to take it easy - so that all members of the Integrative Movement will know that 'Talulah' is nothing more than a A hypocritical and humble weak liar. And the thoughts and theories I once radiated will be quickly discarded and forgotten."

——Then next month, Chen Huijie will bring Chi Xiao over to chop off my dog's head who bullies her sister!No, probably not until next month, Wei Yanwu and Wenyue, who are controlled by the daughter, will arrive next week!

— Gan!Although I can't break the skin even if I cut them standing... but I have nothing to do to come up with such a magical operation?Do all GE staff need it? ?

Miss Steele, stop.

She looked at the woven bag in her hand, as if she was looking at a time bomb with a broken timer that was about to explode at any moment.

She is troubled.

But her troubles were not limited to Tallulah's plan, which was completely nonsense from beginning to end—no, Tallulah's rhetoric actually only occupied a small part.What really troubled her was that when Tallulah uttered this unfeasible plan in such a tone that she could vaguely feel a hint of expectation, deep in her heart, there was actually a little rippling.

——I was moved.

——I... want to see her bleeding, want to see her weak, want to see her curled up pitifully at my feet.

——No, not only her.It's not just Tallulah...Persephone, Kelsey, they...I want to see these beautiful girls with amazing talents defeated, lost, and powerless in front of me.And this...may not be able to be answered simply with a shield like LSP.

——Am I... am I jealous?

——But, what am I jealous about?If I'm not jealous... then I'm...

——So bad in nature?

The thought was only for a moment, but the swaying of her mind made her stand still for more than a moment.This process may have lasted for half a minute before the restlessness in her heart was suppressed by her reason again.

It's a pity that no assassin appeared to disturb her while she was thinking.

Because if that happened, her body would respond instinctively.And her thinking will be forcibly interrupted by her own fighting intuition-she will not be able to think of such a deep level, and naturally, there will be no more troubles.

——Let’s stop here, take care of your own business.As long as it doesn't get in the way of others, what's going on in my head has nothing to do with other people?

Girl, let out a soft breath.

"There must be something wrong with your head, Tallulah." She said flatly, "But I won't leave you alone... Rhode Island's own ship recently came with a doctor with sufficient medical skills. When I give you a full body examination, I will ask her to give special approval to your brain and cognition. But..."

Shirtel hesitated a little.A certain candidate who is very suitable to bear the blame and has a lot of criminal records surfaced in her cognition.

So she just asked.

"Talulah, have you...have you ever met a guy with long purple hair and no figure. About 1.4 meters tall but very beautiful. If she told you something..."

A voice familiar to Shirtel sounded from behind the two before the feedback in the bag came out.

"First, I'm not in the habit of wasting time on such insignificant details. Second, I deduced the time when you met. At that time, I was sleeping in the sarcophagus of Chernobog. In the end, so you are also the type who can argue behind people's backs, Sylter."

Miss Steele turned her head, and this time, she saw Persephone standing only five meters behind her.

"I didn't talk about right and wrong behind your back." Miss Shirter pouted slightly. "Your eyes and ears are everywhere in this city. Any word I say from my mouth is not much different from shouting directly in your ear-well, you suddenly appeared here, there is something that I need to go to Do it?"

"There are indeed some things." Persephone nodded, and his eyes stopped on the woven bag in Shirtel's hand.

She saw the zipper on the woven bag silently open for a short while, and her eyes met the dragon girl in the bag.
