From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

"One hundred thousand euros, you can ask Rebecca for confirmation, I just want to hear a story, I have no business being with a loser like Arata."

The ticket to the moon costs 25 euros. As soon as Si Ye opened his mouth, he destroyed nearly half of what Lucy was fighting for, causing Lucy's secret countermeasures to come to a halt.

"it is true."

Rebecca's eyes widened when she heard that Lucy had a relationship with Arata, but it was one of the unspoken rules not to delve into the past of marginalized people, so she didn't say anything.

When Lucy gave her a look seeking confirmation, Rebecca nodded vigorously and showed her her account balance.

"hiss…"

Now it was Lucy's turn to hesitate. She began to measure the credibility of Si Ye's words. After all, the hacker group had been tracking her.

One hundred thousand euros was still too much, and Lucy felt that she should take the risk even if it was risky.

"...Those hellish pasts suffocated me, but I never thought I'd be rewarded with a large sum today...If you just want to hear the story, I can tell you."

Lucy agreed to the deal with a complicated expression, using honorifics in her words. Then she kindly reminded

"Huang Ban has a huge influence in Night City. Although I don't know your true identity, it's better to avoid trouble than to worry. It's best if you don't spread bad things about Huang Ban in the city."

There are many people who hate the company, but there are also many people who have been brainwashed by the company and fanatically support it.

Lucy's father is the most typical example. After discovering that his daughter has extraordinary talent in the Internet, he directly threw his daughter into the Arashi Youth Hacker Training Center with a mortality rate of nearly 60%, regardless of her life or death. The reason for doing this is because he believes that the bond between him and the company is better than the family affection he should have with his daughter.

There were quite a few fanatical supporters of Huang Ban in Night City. Si Ye's contemptuous words towards Huang Ban just now could easily lead to trouble and attacks from those fanatics.

Chapter 233: Unexpected Arasaka

“…This thing actually tastes pretty good, but a little bland. Maybe Xi would like it.”

Holding a large and filling synthetic meat burger, he gave a sharp review.

This synthetic burger made of synthetic meat, synthetic plants, and synthetic bread can only be said to be all about technology. Because it is cheap, the sauce originally used to cover up the strange taste of the synthetic creation is also used very little, making the taste weird.

However, it is not appropriate to have too high expectations for this kind of food that street kids and ordinary residents use to fill their stomachs.

The reason why Nian wanted to bring this food back for Xi to try was definitely not because the taste suited Xi's light taste, but most likely because she, as a bad-intentioned sister, wanted to see Xi's expression after eating the food and finding out the real ingredients.

"Don't keep bullying Xi. Ah Yao and the Sui Beast have a good relationship. Be careful that Xi might bring the Sui Beast to bite you one day."

Lucy and Rebecca also took one in their hands and ate it. In fact, because Nian, a guy who they thought was an upper-class person, was brave enough to try this low-class food, they vaguely gained the favor of these two people.

In fact, Nian also wanted to try those pizzas that cost one dollar a piece, but was stopped by Si Ye because the Gray Wind clone had just scanned half of the periodic table from those pizzas. The consequences of eating that stuff were no different from drinking Ganges water directly, or even worse.

"Why, are you feeling bad? Oh my, I really should make some preparations. If Xi climbs into your bed one day, her little temper will be so strong that she will be in high spirits if she has someone to back her up."

Listening to Si Ye Bang Xi talking, Nian said jokingly:

"Perhaps I should grant your wish?"

As the one who took advantage, Si Ye never expressed his opinion on such matters. He shrugged, earning a roll of the eyes from Nian.

"Want to experience Night City's nightlife? I mean... the bars."

Rebecca came forward. Although Night City's lower-class service industry was excellent, the most lively and awesome places in Night City were still those bars and nightclubs that gathered heroes from all walks of life. Only by having a drink in such occasions and listening to the stories of people coming and going could one perhaps experience the true essence of Night City.

"I've booked a top-tier private room at the Dark Matter Club. I saw so much praise for it online, I want to see what it's like."

The Dark Matter Club, a top-tier club located on Japan Street in Westbrook, Night City, is basically a luxurious place where the upper class of Night City gathers. Even if you have money, you may not be able to enter.

The reason why Si Ye was able to book a private room in this place was simply because the Grey Wind clone was more sophisticated than Sasha, fabricating identities and wealth in the blink of an eye.

“Dark…dark matter!!!”

Rebecca suggested going to a bar, but in fact, the destination was just an ordinary bar like Red Mud or Wild Wolf. After all, the legendary land required Mann to show his face, and Rebecca felt that she was not famous enough to bring Si Ye and the others in.

But unexpectedly, Si Ye actually made a reservation at the Dark Matter Club, which Rebecca had only heard of but never visited. This made her exclaim in surprise.

"Wow, following the boss is really informative...but can I get in like this?"

Rebecca looked at her tattoos and street-kid attire, feeling a little embarrassed.

"How about I wait for you guys outside, boss?"

"Why, I booked a service and they're still putting conditions on me?"

Si Ye asked in return, in Night City where money and power are supreme, can rules really beat money and fists?

Delaman stopped at the brightly lit and neon-filled Japanese street. The Dark Matter Club had its own passageway, and security guards in suits and ties were wearing tactical goggles, scrutinizing everyone who tried to approach.

"Don't come near..."

Lucy and Rebecca's street clothes were too conspicuous. Before Si Ye and his group could get close, the security guards in suits came over and tried to drive them away.

But just as the security officer approached Si Ye, the eyepiece on his face popped up the order information of Si Ye's reserved box, making him bite his tongue and change the words that were about to come out.

"...Sir, welcome to the Dark Matter Club...Are these two your guards? We have a special rest room for them."

"They are my employees and friends. Why? They won't let them in?"

How could the wealthy and powerful who could afford to book a top-notch private room have friends on the street?

The security personnel were full of doubts, but they did not dare to contradict Si Ye, a lavish spender, so they could only try hard to put on a smile.

"You're joking. You are naturally a distinguished guest of our club. Please follow me. The box you reserved is over here."

The security personnel led Si Ye and his party to the main gate and handed them over to a professional reception attendant. The group successfully entered the luxurious club, which was decorated in luxurious black and gold colors and dotted with subtle light strips.

"Is that... Arasaka's security force?"

As she passed the door of a box, Lucy saw some soldiers wearing exoskeletons and holding automatic weapons.

These soldiers were standing at the door of the private room, vigilantly scanning every passerby. From the three-petal Arasaka logo printed on the soldiers' exoskeletons, it could be seen that this was a combat team affiliated with the Arasaka Group.

Lucy subconsciously turned her head away to prevent the combat team from scanning her face.

Although these combat teams certainly didn't recognize her as an Arasaka fugitive, if her face was scanned, Arasaka's supercomputer would likely be able to extract information and obtain specific information about her in Night City.

By then, Lucy will have to start her life on the run again.

But tilting her head could indeed prevent her face from being scanned, but it also prevented Lucy from seeing what was happening in front of her.

嗵

"Don't you look at the road?!"

Lucy bumped into someone who had just turned out from the fork in the road. Rebecca quickly supported Lucy, but the man in a suit who was hit fell directly onto the carpet.

Rude words came out of the suit man's mouth. It seemed that seeing Rebecca and Lucy's street clothes, he was very rude and directly turned on the scan of his artificial eye.

"How did you guys...huh?"

As if he had seen some information, the man in the suit's expression changed rapidly, and his eyes were fixed on Lucy.

He is also from Arasaka.

Lucy also subconsciously started the scan, and was shocked to see the Arasaka chip on the man in the suit. However, she happened to meet the eyes of the man in the suit with a grin.

"There is such a good thing."

The man in the suit had never expected that he, an ordinary middle-level manager of the Arasaka Group in Night City, would not only sneak into the party held by the Arasaka prince: Arasaka Yorinobu, but also run into the wanted criminal being pursued by Arasaka when he went to the bathroom. It seemed that a promotion and salary increase was just around the corner.

"Security? Security? Come here, there's..."

The man in the suit stretched out his arm and tried to grab Lucy, but Lucy, in panic, also tried to pull out the monomolecular line and cut the neck of the Arasaka employee.

"What do you want to do to my employees?"

The suit man's hand was pinched. Si Ye looked at the situation in the field with an amused look. He really didn't expect to meet someone from Arasaka here.

By chance, Lucy's identity was exposed, but he had not yet inquired about the information behind the black wall, so he naturally would not allow others to do anything to Lucy.

"I'm from the Arasaka Group's Defense Planning Department. I don't know what your relationship is with this woman, but she has an Arasaka wanted warrant on her head. I think... it's best if you don't get involved."

The man in the suit couldn't scan Si Ye's identity, but those who could enter the Dark Matter Club were either rich or noble, so he could only reveal his identity immediately and use Arasaka's name to create pressure.

After all, apart from military technology, Arasaka rarely needs to give face to other companies or forces, and other companies and forces will often stay away when Arasaka does things.

This is the confidence of top military-industrial enterprises.

"She is my employee. No one can do anything to her until I terminate her employment relationship."

Si Ye sighed. He had originally wanted to wait for the fleet to arrive and use Arasaka as an example to scare others.

But now it seems that with Arasaka coming to the door themselves, the Arasaka Group in Night City may have to withdraw early.

“She’s Arasaka’s most wanted criminal!!!”

The man in the suit emphasized the word "Arasaka", as if he was reminding or warning.

"Alright, the Arasaka name is useless to me. Don't even think about taking my employees away. Besides, you're really annoying me. I heard the Arasaka family advocates seppuku. If you do it yourself now, I can keep the Arasaka Group alive for a few more days."

Si Ye showed an expression that said I had shown mercy.

Not to mention the man in the suit, even Lucy and Rebecca, who had been trying to escape, were stunned by Si Ye's words.

That’s Arasaka, the company that owns super aircraft carrier battle groups and dominates the world of military technology.

How come in Si Ye's mouth, it's as insignificant as a fish on the side of the road?

"Crazy, crazy bastard!!!"

Obviously, the man in the suit was the fanatical follower of Arasaka that Lucy mentioned. His faith was despised by Si Ye, and his artificial eye had already shown signs of congestion. It was obvious that he wanted to come up and fight Si Ye to the death.

The Arasaka security team in the distance also noticed the movement here and began to move closer with weapons in hand.

Although the members of the Dark Matter Club said that customers are kings, they still silently chose Arasaka over Si Ye, who might just be a nouveau riche, and Arasaka, the local tycoon of Night City.

Lucy felt a little desperate. She didn't expect that she would put herself in such a situation because of greed for a generous reward. She was ready to fight to the death. Even if she died, she would never return to the Arasaka Group.

"Alas, Nian, it seems that we can't see the night view."

Looking at the Arasaka security team that was gradually surrounding him and even had their guns pointed at him, Si Ye sighed.

"Then I..."

"Go ahead and make some noise, whatever you want."

"okay!"

Nian got Si Ye's permission, with a happy smile on his face, he looked at the security personnel opposite with eagerness.
