Chapter 379 Bun
Gunfights happen every day in Night City, and death is the most common thing.
No one will be sad because a man walking on the roadside is suddenly shot to death or hit by a car——
If you don’t understand a dead person, then he is just a corpse , which is scary, but not uncommon in Night City.
Trauma Team is a medical company that was born to deal with this situation. To put it simply, this is a medical giant that provides emergency rescue, unlike other counterparts that only provide medical services.
Obviously, medical rescue in Night City is not just medical rescue, but can even be equated with battlefield first aid to a large extent.
For them, the customer is God. The uniformly equipped smart weapons reduce the demand for combat quality of rescuers, but also deprive field operators of their ability to make on-the-spot judgments to a large extent.
David's head was buzzing as he drove the car - not because he was bombed, but because he heard Kanek's story from Lille.
What is this?
He suddenly recalled some things he learned in school:
"Company employees should recognize the company's philosophy, learn the company culture, implement the company spirit, and make some small sacrifices to ensure the company's profitability."
He didn't realize what these "little sacrifices" looked like before, but instinctively felt that this kind of life was suffocating.
But now it seems that these small sacrifices are only small for the company, but for the employees, they may be everything.
Everyone says that company dogs have a bright future. Although they are a bit tired, their jobs are stable, they pay well, and they also have many hidden benefits.
But now it seems that he was right to leave——
Only a fool can do this.
David clutched the steering wheel and chewed on the stories of the two trauma team members.
".So if the employer shoots at the rescuers, they can't even shoot at the employer?"
Liel nodded: "This is the worst situation for the trauma team to work in A kind of rescue for cyberpsychosis will leave them helpless and bear a large amount of excess losses.”
The working environment of the trauma team is far worse than David imagined.
Rescuing cyberpsychosis is the worst case scenario, and a long time ago, especially during corporate wars, two trauma teams went to the same area to rescue, and the rescue targets might even be enemies of each other!
In this case, rescue will become very difficult: if they shoot, they may hit another employer. If they don't shoot, the situation will also be unfavorable to the employer.
In order to prevent themselves from needing first aid, some employers will even activate their alarm devices and "call for fire support" at the beginning of the gunfight.
As a medical giant that provides battlefield first aid services, it is their ironclad rule not to harm the employer. The task of rescuing the employer will also become extremely complicated for various reasons.
In contrast, blowing up a roomful of gang militants before a rescue was simply refreshing and even a bit decompressing.
Because of these unexpected events, trauma team members, especially platinum members, have evolved into a kind of medical insurance, with many approval processes and increased package prices for people with high rescue risks.
These are things David didn’t understand: because the excellent education he received since childhood only allowed him to see the company’s excellent rescue services.
The unique service quality and content make them almost unrivaled in the emergency ambulance field. A stable position usually means good employee benefits and stable work -
These are what he thought before .
However, since he picked up a gun, his perception has gradually changed. Although being a mercenary has a low social identity, it is indeed quite free, and he can even make a lot of money by following his elder brother.
Kaka——
The car stopped in front of the traffic light, making a noise as it was about to shut down, shaking like a Parkinson's patient.
"Uh" David awkwardly put his hand under the steering wheel to see if the car's old problem had happened again.
This is a Villefort Columbus freight car owned by an unknown number of hands. It is painted in black, the sheet metal is deformed, and the bumper is also hanging.
Originally, this was the cheapest truck in the Villefort assembly line, and the one David bought was even more of a bargain among bargains.
It's certain that people have died, but maybe more than one group of people have died in the car.
David suddenly seemed to be back when he first drove a manual transmission, fixing the car while staring at the red light, feeling quite nervous——
But he was not nervous because he was afraid of starting. It's slowing down or stalling, but the car is too broken. I don't know how Lear will react.
However, in fact, Lear didn't react at all. His car is indeed not fast, but the target speed is also very slow.
In order to ensure the privacy of the floating car, Kanek turned off the main power supply and the main energy supply line. He used a backup line, which was not fast and the sound was low.
No one on the road would notice this madman yet, and with Lille's covert help, it would probably take a while for the trauma team to find out that their company's float vehicle had been taken away.
On the other hand, Lille did not intend to rely on David to complete the matter, and had to wait for more people to come.
As mentioned earlier, some small changes have occurred in the membership regulations of the trauma team.
Now it is mentioned that the trauma team is divided into three packages: Silver Membership, Gold Membership and Platinum Membership. Only the most expensive platinum members will allow the trauma team to provide top-notch services. The fee is 50,000 euros a year, and it only includes the service of dispatching emergency ambulance. All additional costs incurred in the rescue are calculated separately.
But even so, they will not easily let the purchase of platinum membership go to high-risk groups -
For example, Kanek's revenge target, Woolley Crowley, a local servant born in Night City Soldiers, who are all equipped with combat prosthetics, are in danger for at least 70 hours, 7 days a week.
The risks faced by company dogs are different. His job is to expose himself to danger. Such members require certain consideration by the trauma team.
However, Woolley Crowley still bought it. Even if we don’t mention how he passed the approval, the membership fee of up to 50,000 euros is not cheap, plus the cost of the rescue.
It was unusual that he could afford it.
A body of combat prosthetics is enough to destroy a trauma team rescue team, and it can also afford the platinum membership of the trauma team
His employer is really rich, and he is willing to spend money on him.
Click, click, click, click—
The green light came on, the engine made a tractor-like sound, and the beeping of the horn behind him made David quite nervous:
This Can't turn off the engine again.
The car started smoothly and was immediately overtaken by a sports car behind it.
David wiped his sweat and felt as if a century had passed. He often exhaled after a smooth start.
Lille looked a little strange at his look: "Why do you feel so stressed?"
"Well, it's a bit." David scratched his face, "This car is a bit old."
“But it is indeed suitable for novice mercenaries. How much did you buy?”
"1,000 euros." David looked at the steering wheel in his hand. "The car has a lot of problems. I thought about buying it and repairing it myself, and getting familiar with the mechanical structure of the car."
In order to match that Si'an Westan, David's body was equipped with expensive prosthetics, carefully selected, and after going back and forth, there was not much money left to buy him a car.
On the other hand, Mann and the others own a Mackinaw together, but it is a team asset after all and is usually parked next to Mann.
“It’s pretty good.” Lille glanced at the young man and patted the car door. “The car I took for the first time was worse than this. It was a Mechsuplon FS3. It makes a squeaking sound every time it brakes, as if it will fall apart in the next second. "
"Is it the car made of plastic and textile materials? I have seen it, but the power is too small, and I am afraid of stalling. ”
"That's the one."
Actually, the car Lear was talking about was driven by V in Atlanta. It was also a van, but it was shorter than most cars and looked like a fish head with chopped peppers.
It is also a typical poor car model.
“Everyone has a novice stage, and the car you buy is the best.”
Lille looked at the gear handle of this car. This is a pure manual transmission, a hundred years ago The old design that exists does not have any electronic control unit to assist shifting.
Unlike David's idea that "big brother only likes to drive high-tech and special tanks", Lear expressed his appreciation for his choice.
A car you buy with your own money is a good car.
As the eldest brother, he felt that he should say a few words of encouragement to the young man.
“It’s time to learn to drive this kind of old car. When money is tight, you can spend a little money to build one to shelter from the wind and rain, find some work, and wait for a comeback.
The car It’s only worth 1,000 euros and there’s no shame in it, you have to toughen up”
David was so inspired that he had the illusion that the car's horsepower had increased.
What happened to the bun? Buns can also chase empty cars.
And the person who drives the float car. If he has to pay that kind of price to drive a float car, forget it.
Lille frowned slightly:
They are driving along the main street of Schönbrunn District, which will reach the city center all the way north.
However, the aerial vehicle chose to fly at a higher altitude and was still approaching the outskirts of the city. This only shows that the city center is not his destination, and it may not even be the Little Chinatown north of the city center——
And further away is the Arasaka Beach.
"We have to speed up, this cyber madman is really crazy."
