In this cyberpunk era, why are you still playing the traditional villain?

Xu Shi found her unreasonable. She was eating and living at her buddies' place, and yet she had the nerve to ask for overtime pay.

"Isn't this what you said, to let me do things under my old identity?"

Gu Yi pouted, "When I did this kind of thing before, people always gave me a deposit first..."

"Get out of my way! I haven't even questioned you about slacking off at work yet."

Xu Shi tapped her on the head in an annoyed tone, "If you do a good job, you'll make up for your mistakes; if you don't, you'll be starving."

"whispering sound."

Miss Black Rabbit frowned, instinctively wanting to make a funny face at him.

But then she quickly swallowed it back, knowing she would inevitably get shocked again.

That was enough to overwhelm her; even with the dosage just now, she almost couldn't help but ejaculate.

"I understand, I promise I'll complete the mission!"

She could just curse him in her heart; he wouldn't find out anyway… Thinking this, she obediently nodded, “When do we start?”

To be honest, having just visited Jiang Chengcheng and the Xia family aunt and niece, Xu Shi felt Gu Yi's cuteness even more.

The main reason is that this child is simple-minded and easy to win over... Considering the feedback from her superpowers, if there were a tangible progress bar or something, she would have at least 70% or more.

All of this is visible to the naked eye, and even Gu Yi herself probably didn't notice it; she has completely lost her resistance to Xu Shi.

As for that puppy-like resistance... it's just her nature. She has this habit of making excuses with words, but once she gets serious, she immediately becomes a little coward.

Just train them a bit more, or even don't train them at all. We don't have any bad habits that suppress individuality, right?

Sometimes, this kind of thing happens, and I sometimes find it quite amusing.

Just saying.

"It should be tomorrow, I'll give you some time to prepare."

While answering, Xu Shi was also a little curious, "But why do I feel... you're more excited than I am?"

You can argue with yourself, but you can't hide the subconscious expectation in the other person.

"Yes? No?"

Gu Yi was taken aback, then turned her face away guiltily, "Chairman Xu, you must have misunderstood."

That's actually true.

It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but there is also a saying that it is easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature.

Although she likes her current life very much, the work that Xu Shi assigned to her comes with a lot of restrictions and limitations.

This also makes her often miss the exciting life she had as a cyber kidnapper... Now that such an opportunity is in front of her, it would be a lie to say she's not excited.

_(ツ)_/ That's why people are inherently shameless.

"Alright, alright, let's tidy up and get ready to eat."

Xu Shi secretly rolled his eyes, not bothering to delve into Miss Black Rabbit's thoughts.

"Come on, come on."

So, I hope my fiancée will like the little gift I prepared for her.

-

the next morning.

District 13, "Prism" has an unmanned private hospital under its jurisdiction.

This hospital was established five years ago and was the first unmanned hospital pilot project of "Prism"—it abandoned all human labor, and all staff, from doctors to nurses to cleaners, were robots.

This reduced costs and made management more efficient, laying the foundation for the unmanned hospitals in the fourteenth and fifteenth districts later on.

At this moment, in the slightly crowded hospital, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Patient No. 2200, here is your medication for this morning. Please take it."

Inside the ward, a robotic nurse with a strong metallic feel retrieved the medicine and accurately handed it to the patient.

"Bring another towel."

There's no need to use honorifics with robots, Patient No. 2200 said casually as he took the medicine.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The robot nurse bowed politely, about to turn around to complete the instruction, when she suddenly froze in place as if struck by lightning. "Please...please..."

"Ok?"

The patient frowned, and then saw the robot twitch again as if it had been electrocuted. "Rebooting...rebooting..."

When it raised its head again, the expression on the screen had turned into a strange smile.

"What? This isn't medicine, it's a compressed towel!"

The robot nurse snatched the medicine box and pulled on it forcefully. "It grows bigger and taller when it gets wet. Open it up, and you'll find a super-sized, super-thick towel that doesn't shed a single lint or fibers. It won't break no matter how much you struggle with it..."

"what's the situation?"

The patient realized something was wrong, but before he could react, he heard similar sounds coming from all directions.

"Use it to wipe your shoes first, then your face, then your mouth. It should last five or six times without any problems..."

"The little yellow cart below, buy five packs get five free, a total of one hundred packs with free shipping..."

"I'm reeking of cigarettes and walk with a slightly flamboyant swagger. If you want to buy a Rick 5th generation, look no further than me..."

“You’re right, but ‘Divine Descent’ is a…”

Almost simultaneously, all the robots in the entire hospital malfunctioned!

The electronic systems were also paralyzed, plunging the entire hospital into panic.

"Holy crap! What's going on? Where's the doctor? Where's the nurse? Someone come and take care of this!"

Someone shouted anxiously, but it was obvious that calling for help was useless. In an unmanned hospital, how could one find human service?

But we can't stay any longer. Although we don't know exactly what's going on, what if these out-of-control robots go berserk and hurt people?

Then, a very dramatic scene unfolded—everyone, regardless of whether they were seriously ill or not, tried every means to run out of the hospital, and the scene immediately turned into chaos.

The news quickly reached the headquarters of "Prism," and Ye Shanshan, dressed in a suit, hurriedly ran to the president's office.

"Chairman Xie, something terrible has happened! The unmanned hospitals in districts 13, 14, and 15 have all been hacked, and the medical system has been largely paralyzed!"

Upon entering the room, Xie Qingyan's expression was even worse.

This was not only because she already knew the news, but also because there was a screen full of emails on her computer.

"Hello, friends of 'Prism'..."

It was a ransom note, clearly stating that she was the one who did it and that her purpose was to extort a ransom.

"Given your level of expertise, I'm afraid you won't be able to resolve this on your own. Therefore, please pay the ransom as soon as possible, and I will restore your information system immediately."

"Or you could try... come and catch me, hehehe, you little rascal~ you little rascal~"

Seeing the signature provocative emoji at the bottom of the page, Ye Shanshan immediately realized what was going on.

"This...that S-class wanted hacker, 'Black Rabbit'?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 49 A Strange Attribute Awakens!

"Who else could it be but him?"

Xie Qingyan's eyes looked murderous; he clearly couldn't tolerate such blatant provocation.

To be fair, "Black Rabbit" is a well-known name in Night City, after all, he has ruined nearly half of the companies in Night City.

But even now, people still haven't been able to obtain any information about him.

Xie Qingyan never expected that this guy would actually dare to mess with the six major conglomerates!

However, if she knew that "Snake Ring" had also experienced something similar, she probably wouldn't think that way.

Unfortunately, Xu Shi had already erased most of the traces of Gu Yi in that incident. Even within "Snake Ring," many people didn't know much about her identity, only that after Xu Anbang, a little girl was parachuted into the group as a manager.

But now is not the time to dwell on this.

"Chairman Xie, now..."

Ye Shanshan asked anxiously.

"Do I need to teach you how to do it? Don't force me to swear."

Xie Qingyan waved her hand, causing her skirt to flutter backward, "Immediately, right now, mobilize manpower from the surrounding hospitals to stabilize the situation first."

"And what about the security department? Isn't 'Deep Sea' supposed to be the seventh-ranked professional hacker team on the leaderboard? Did they just let something like this happen right under their noses?"

"Uh, well... Mr. Xie, this 'Black Rabbit' seems to be ranked fourth..."

Ye Shanshan whispered a reminder.

“I pay them to be responsible for this kind of thing, instead of arguing with me about rankings.”

Xie Qingyan said coldly, "Tell them that if the problem can't be solved in half a day at most, I don't mind showing them just how advanced 'Prism's' medical capabilities are."

"And the media... you handle that."

"……Yes."

Knowing that the chairman was in a bad mood, Ye Shanshan didn't dare to stay any longer. She responded and quickly slipped away.

After turning off the computer screen, Xie Qingyan sat in her boss's chair, crossed her legs, and frowned slightly.

She had been in a good mood lately, but when she noticed that He Yuqiang and "Spark" had fallen out, she took the opportunity to fan the flames and help her business partner, the eldest son of the He family, to deliver a heavy blow to their competitor.

As a result, she acquired several projects from the other party at extremely low prices... Xie Qingyan understood the principle of not putting all her eggs in one basket, and since taking over the company, she has been operating in both "Snake Ring" and "Shark Tooth".

Anyway, she didn't care much about her engagement with Xu Shijian. The two groups had a good relationship, but it also depended on their strength. Based on Xu Shijian's previous performance, it was uncertain whether "Snake Ring" would still be in his hands in a few years.

She had no interest in cooperating with a seasoned veteran like Lin Wenhua, so in recent years she has become somewhat distant from "Snake Ring".
