Cyberpunk 2074: Shadows of the Past

Chapter 94 The Third Movement: March (I)

"It's raining heavily..."

Stepping on top of the giant's head, the man muttered softly, coldly overlooking the dimly lit city below.

Whether it is a bustling commercial street or a dilapidated slum, they are all submerged in this mighty misty rain without discrimination by nature.

Only a few scattered steel giants towering into the sky still stood tall, letting the violent storm vent their boundless and surging anger on their bodies.

"Mr. Paul, do you want to continue tonight? It's raining too much... Even the most advanced floating vehicles cannot guarantee [-]% safety."

"I thought you'd want me to leave?"

"How?...Mr. Paul misunderstood..."

Zhang Xian'an lowered his head cautiously, not daring to show any disrespect.

"No matter what you think..." Paul shook his head, "Continue with the previous topic."

"Yes, Mr. Paul." After Zhang Xian'an graciously opened the seat for him, he trotted back to the seat.

"How is the progress of the CPH-4 experiment?" Paul put his palm on the solid wood table and tapped the table three times with his fingertips.

"Judging from the data of multiple experimental subjects..." Zhang Xian'an took out the materials he had already prepared, and carefully reported the results of his painstaking efforts over the past few days. "The efficacy and side effects of the medicine are outstanding..."

"Go on..."

"Yes..." Zhang Xian settled down, and took a shallow sip of the warm water cup at hand, "After injecting drugs into several experimental subjects diagnosed with cyberpsychosis, the curative effect was exerted in just 24 hours, and their sanity Levels are almost back to normal."

"Good, what about the side effects?"

"Side effects..." Zhang Xian'an flipped through a few pages and picked the key points to report, "First, the degree of cyberpsychosis will be exacerbated after the effect of the drug wears off; second, the drug itself is addictive; There are some strange phenomena after death; the fourth..."

"Wait... Strange phenomenon?" Paul tapped the desktop twice hastily, "Show me the record."

"Okay, Mr. Paul." Zhang Xian'an was not surprised by his reaction, took out the data chip that had been prepared, inserted it into the slot of the desktop computer, and projected it on the huge screen behind him.

As a result, the noisy sound of rain began to play in the soundproof office.

The rainy night of that day just crossed time and space and invaded the present world.

Paul opened and closed his mouth, hesitant to speak.

In the picture, two figures criss-crossing in the rain swallowed up the words he wanted to say together with the raindrops without a trace.

This is the ferocious figure of two high-speed people fighting to the death.

Like two scarred lions, glaring at each other, head to head, teeth to teeth, muscles tensed like a rock, trying to bite the other's throat first.

"Which one is the experimental subject?" Paul asked softly, his blue eyes fixed on the screen.

"To be precise... both of them." Zhang Xian'an chuckled and clicked on a certain position on the computer.

As a result, the sinister fighting scene like dancing with the tip of a knife was slowed down countless times.

It becomes like a slow and elegant death tango.

Paul frowned and didn't say much.

Two men, one tall and one short, are fighting back and forth. Even though the fierce collision between the mantis knives has been slowed down countless times, it still reveals the beauty of full murderous intent and surging power.

Even though the playback speed was artificially controlled and the progress was prolonged, this vicious fight finally came to an end.

Zhang Xian'an clicked the computer again, and the playback speed of the screen returned to normal.

"I don't like promises. Neither promises, nor promises to people."

The man's deep voice was amplified by the high-end surround sound system, easily covering the roaring thunder outside the window.

"Sent them home safely." Yawei closed the door, blocking the damp and cold air that was chasing after him.

"Reward you with a kiss, thank you for your hard work!" Xi Tan slightly tiptoed and pressed his lips lightly.

"Hey, I'm still here!" Lucy propped her chin, looking at the two of them making love to each other in front of her with a displeased expression.

"Hee hee..." Xi Tan smiled provocatively at Lucy, and made a piggy grimace.

"So, why don't you find one too?"

"It doesn't hurt to stand and talk, right! How can it be so easy?" Lucy snorted coldly, too lazy to care about the little princess in a certain fairy tale.

"Slightly slightly..." Xita stuck out her tongue mischievously, ran to Lucy with a smile, and squeezed on the sofa next to her.

"Aren't you going back tonight?" Yawei still cared out of politeness.

"Xi Tan was afraid that I would be alone, so she insisted on dragging me to stay..." Lucy shook her head, directly revealing someone's thoughts.

"It's obviously Lucy who said pitifully that you were bored by yourself, and you were afraid of the dark and thunder, so you insisted on staying..." Xi Tan gently pushed her head against Lucy, arguing loudly, trying to turn black and white.

"Who will believe what you say?" Lucy sneered, stretched out her arms, and gently wrapped her arms around Xita's fair neck.

"Ugh... I'm dead again!" Xita screamed miserably, stuck out her tongue, and collapsed into Lucy's arms.

"Why do you say 'again'?" Lucy gently combed Xita's slightly curled soft hair with her fingertips together, and asked softly while tilting her head.

Yawei, who had been watching silently, couldn't bear it any longer, so he explained: "She was playing games on the computer before, and then the game character died..."

"Xi Tan, little naive..." Lucy cursed with a smile, and gently stroked the girl's head back and forth with her warm palm.

"Why does Lucy talk so old-fashioned, do you want to take advantage of me?" Xi Tan was silent for a while, then she packed up the sudden surge of emotions, and changed the subject.

"Hmm..." Lucy replied perfunctorily, turned her head to look at Yawei who was sitting aside, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to disturb your two lives again tonight..."

"It doesn't matter to me..." Yawei shook his head, "I'm afraid that she will suddenly touch you at night, so you should be mentally prepared in advance."

"Hey! How can you speak ill of me in front of me!"

"Ha..." Lucy smiled lowly, and helped the girl lying in her arms to sit up, "Thank you, Xita."

"Hmph, don't, don't think about it crookedly, it's not for you..."

"Ouch..." Lucy vomited in disgust, feeling a little sick to her stomach.

"Isn't it like I learned it? Aren't the movies very popular recently, Yawei! You judge the truth!" Xi Tan wrinkled her nose and turned to look at her boyfriend.

"What about people?"

"He just ran to the toilet..." Lucy pointed to the toilet with one hand, covered her mouth with one hand, and trembled with a suppressed laugh.

　I still have a fever, my condition is not good, and my writing is unsatisfactory
