"Can I have another Minotaur?" David asked, pointing to the top and most expensive dish on the menu.
Kitagawa Hao coughed a few times and lowered his voice and said:
"The target has appeared, please be smarter!"
When David heard this, his body trembled violently, and he quickly placed the menu flat on the table. The slight panic in his eyes turned into calmness.
He glanced around calmly, and finally saw the gray-haired middle-aged man, and an inexplicable feeling of nervousness suddenly surged into his heart.
Although Kitagawa Hiroshi had sworn to him before he came, tonight's operation was just to observe the movement of the mission target, and most likely it would not involve combat matters.
But everything is unexpected, and who can guarantee that nothing will go wrong tonight?
"Are you scared? Boy." Beichuan Hao looked at David's nervous look and asked with a chuckle.
"Don't be afraid, I've always thought about it."
David took a long breath and let it out silently, feeling the tension in his heart calm down a little.
Lin Mo values him, Beichuan Hao trains him, and his high salary...
These factors all indicate that the business content of the studio cannot be said to be exactly the same as normal garbage disposal work, but only slightly related.
An action like this "agent surveillance mission target" was within his expectation.
Moreover, before coming to the restaurant tonight, Kitagawa Hiroshi had vaccinated him.
If you feel scared, you don't need to participate in tonight's action, just go home early and go to bed.
After all, the protagonist tonight cannot be a rookie like him who has only trained for less than a month.
This Japanese man brought himself here for the purpose of training, in other words, "internship".
Seeing that David still looked like a novice, Kitagawa Hiroshi sighed again, glanced at the mission target, and found that the other party had chosen to dine at the window seat on the first floor, and there was nothing unusual for the time being.
So he withdrew his gaze, continued to look at David, and whispered:
"Seriously, boy, I admit that your talent is very good, better than most people I have met, but to be honest, you are not ready, at least not yet. If you choose to withdraw from tonight's
It’s still not too late to take action.”
David was stunned, not expecting Kitagawa Hiroshi to say this...
He recalled that every day after school, the other man would use the most ruthless methods to train him, which made him feel that this man was a psychopathic devil.
But now, he is thinking about himself and giving himself the opportunity to choose to give up.
David was silent.
He has never been involved in the industry of marginalized people, and he doesn't understand the ins and outs of it, but he has also seen a lot of Mewtwo in this series, and he also understands that this kind of people exist in the Night City.
They are called cyberpunks, edgewalkers, and edgers.
Although Lin Mo didn't say it explicitly, David more or less guessed that the daily work of the studio is probably inextricably related to the mercenary business.
As for whether he is willing to become a marginalized person, David is not sure...after all, he has a mother in his family who does not want him to be harmed in any way.
Now there were only two ways before David.
The first is to pack up and go home and not participate in tonight's action. Then most of the work in the studio from now on will have nothing to do with him. After the training is over, he will just be a free-loading security guard. Lin Mo doesn't like him anyway.
This little salary.
The second is to participate in tonight's action. It does not require much contribution, but at least it expresses an attitude. After the training is over, he will become a core member of the studio, and he will most likely be a cyberpunk in his own right.
There wasn't much time left for him to think. Just when David was too stunned to give an answer, what Lin Mo had said to him in the past resounded in his mind again.
"Do you want to live for yourself or for others?"
Yes, what else is there to be confused about?
Just fuck him!
He lives for himself, not for others. Lin Mo praised his potential, and Kitagawa Hiroshi was also surprised by his talent.
Who you are suitable to be and what you are suitable to do should be figured out by your 16-year-old self.
With such a talent, why would he force himself to do things he doesn't like and become someone he doesn't like?
Recalling the beatings I received these days, the joy of improving my strength, the pride of being able to invite my mother to a restaurant...
David Martinez's eyes were clear and bright, and he looked at the Japanese man opposite him. His tone was serious and resolute, with the unique stubbornness of a young man:
"I won't run away!"
Kitagawa Hao showed a pleased smile, put his hands together, and patted his palms without making a sound, as if to praise David:
"Boy, no, maybe we can stop using this title now."
"David, I'm sure you won't regret your decision today."
Then, with David's stunned eyes, he called the waiter and asked him to bring another top-quality steak set meal and a vegetable and fruit salad to his table.
By the way, I bought a few set meals for take away.
"The target has appeared. Didn't we agree not to eat anymore?" David also asked in a lowered voice.
Kitagawa Hao smiled, also lowered his voice and said with a bad smile:
"This may be your last meal in your life, so how could I refuse your meal request so cruelly?"
When David heard this, his eyes widened with disbelief.
"I'm kidding you, you don't even think about how many green onions you have. If you were asked to observe the target, apart from the fact that he is a middle-aged man, wearing a white suit, and accompanied by a beautiful female companion, what else can you observe?" Beichuan
Hao said with a smile.
David glanced at the target without leaving any trace, thought to himself for a while, and finally choked out a sentence:
"He still has white hair and looks very rich..."
"Why didn't you say he had a dick down there?" Beichuan Hao laughed angrily.
Looking at David's innocent eyes, he sighed and pointed to his ear:
"David, although your talent is indeed good, there are some abilities that cannot be obtained by talent. You have to rely on this."
"Prosthetic body?" David guessed.
"Yes, hearing enhancer. Only with this can we know what the target is talking about." Kitagawa Hiroshi explained:
"You are lucky. Since I started working with Mr. Lin, I have also saved a lot of money and bought the latest model. I can share what I hear with you. Come on, quickly set up our private channel, Sasha
Miss."
Sasha?
David looked around the restaurant in confusion, having no idea who Kitagawa Hiroshi was talking to.
However, the next second, a prompt box suddenly appeared on the data panel in front of him: Someone is requesting permission to access your communicator.
Seeing Kitagawa Hao sitting opposite him nodding to him, David silently chose to agree.
"Hello, David, it's a pleasure to work with you for the first time."
A clear and gentle voice came from the communicator in his head, and the voice seemed to be that of a gentle big sister.

"Although this is our first phone call, I still want to take the liberty to ask you a question here. Is Lin Mo your classmate?"
"...Yes, he is my classmate and my boss." David thought for a while and replied.
"Then may I ask, does he have a girlfriend in college?"
