Chapter 240 Talking about the Past
Chapter 240 Talking about the Past
"Who is working with Arasaka? Me?" Johnny pointed at himself with his silver hand, somewhat incredulous.
Kerry poured a glass of wine and pushed it to Johnny Silverhand, "Who else could it be if not you? Look at what you're wearing. This is from Jinguji, and it's custom-made. It seems like you've been doing pretty well these years."
There was both resentment and anger in Kerry's tone.
"Hahaha." Johnny Silver laughed in anger, "Me and Arasaka? I won't fight Arasaka, that's good enough, but I will definitely make them pay back their blood debts."
"What are you doing?" Chris was a little embarrassed. He had been insulting Johnny all along, but he didn't realize that he was the one who messed up. But he was not going to admit it. After all, he was a big star and he had to save face.
"This is Pilot, the most famous mercenary in Night City. He has destroyed many companies and crushed many conspiracies." Johnny Silver raised his right hand and pointed at himself.
"Iron Pilot? Who is Iron Pilot? Don't tell me you have changed your nickname over the years?" Kerry was confused for a moment.
"Obviously." Johnny Silver spread his hands, stood up and turned around, "This body is not mine, but it looks good, right?"
After Johnny Silverhand sat back on the couch, Kerry asked, "Wait, wait...are you saying that this body you are in now is not yours?"
"That's right." Johnny Silverhand clinked glasses with Kerry, took a sip of wine to moisten his throat and said, "I was killed by Arasaka's soul killer, and have been trapped in Arasaka's soul prison for all these years. A few days ago, Arasaka Yorinobu came to Night City, did you know?"
"Damn it." Kerry put the wine glass on the table and replied, "Of course I know, but this kid is probably still lying in the intensive care unit."
Johnny Silver shook his glass, "Yes, this guy stole his father's prototype technology, the RELIC biochip. That thing contains my consciousness.
This guy rushed to the Blue Sky Building, killed Saburo Arasaka, seriously injured Yorinobu Arasaka, and beat Adam up with a hammer. Then he grabbed the chip and inserted it into his own brain. "
"Wait, you're getting more and more confused." Kerry thought he was drunk and heard wrongly, "You mean, it was this guy who broke into the Blue Sky Building and killed Saburo Arasaka? But that wasn't done by Morgan? It's all exposed in the news."
Even if he was beaten to death, Kerry would never believe that the person who did such a big thing was actually the young boy in front of him.
However, what was broadcasted in the news was Morgan Blackhand, and an Alpha-class cybernetic cyborg with a weight class similar to Adam's heavy hammer.
How could such a heavyweight be this young boy? In Kerry's eyes, this guy was too young. To put it bluntly, his hair hadn't even grown out yet. How could he kill Saburo Arasaka?
Honestly, it's just so surreal.
"It seems that you are really old and confused." Johnny Silverhand raised a disdainful smile, "Can you really trust the news these days? The broadcasting rights are all in the hands of the company. What you can see is what they want you to see."
"But... there is video as evidence..." Kerry didn't know who to believe, especially since that video did not seem fake at all.
"You mean this?"
Johnny Silverhand closed his eyes and tried to use the personality imprint mask to transform into Morgan Blackhand, but he failed and had to ask Ling Luxian for help.
"Boy, how do you manipulate this thing?"
"Oh my god, Johnny, you don't even say thank you when you ask others for help?" Ling Lu said in Johnny's mind while holding his silver hand.
"Hurry up, or it will be so embarrassing. Don't forget that you are embarrassing yourself."
"Fuck! You old antique, you just want to cheat, right?"
Ling Luxian gave Johnny Silver the middle finger. He didn't expect that this old guy would use this to threaten him.
However, what Johnny Silverhand said was right. It was embarrassing, but it was embarrassing for him, and there was no way to refute that.
Ling Luxian gave Johnny some guidance, and finally Johnny learned how to use this personality imprint mask.
In an instant, Johnny Silverhand turned into Morgan Blackhand.
"It's amazing! If it weren't for such a long pre-swing, it would be a magic weapon for agents to infiltrate." Kerry walked up to it, looked left and right, and it was exactly Morgan Blackhand himself.
This personality imprint mask is Zeta's top product, and is exclusively used by major companies. Its amazing effect is destined not to be circulated in the market normally.
Ordinary people have never even heard of such a thing. Unfortunately, although Kerry is a big star, he is still an ordinary person.
"Cough cough." Johnny Silverhand coughed twice and changed his appearance into his own.
"Haha, Johnny, this is fucking right. Johnny's silver hand on someone else doesn't look right at all."
When Kerry saw Johnny Silverhand turn back into his own appearance, he immediately said it was perfect.
Johnny Silver moved his fingers and looked at his current state. "If nothing else, this function is exactly what I want."
Chris fiddled with the TV and played footage of their previous concerts.
Seeing an entrance scene, Kerry said, "Fuck! Do you remember this scene? The only time Henry was sober and dressed like a human being?"
Seeing this scene, Johnny Silverhand also felt a little nostalgic.
"Hmm." He nodded, then criticized, "You dress like a human being, but you play the piano like shit."
Kerry looked at the screen and shrugged, saying, "At least... Dani is happy."
"The past days were truly the best times." Johnny Silverhand sighed, wondering if he could go back to that time in the past.
At least they're all still there, right?
When Johnny Silverhand talked about this, Kerry also looked at him and recalled.
"I've sung in venues full of rats, and I had to fight before every performance. I didn't know which song I was going to sing, but every performance was a blast, and I was worthy of myself.
I remember Nancy was a control freak, and Henry always smelled like urine. Oh, don't mention it, now I think about it, my nose is sore.
As for me...ha, I always steal your pants for fun."
"I really miss you, brother." Johnny said with emotion: "Just don't let me know that you did anything weird to my pants. Otherwise... don't blame me for being rude."
When Kerry talked about always stealing his pants, it reminded Johnny Silverhand of the bad night last night.
That damn Lili Silverhand made him sick to the point of wanting to vomit, and her writing was so cheesy. I heard that Kerry had praised her writing, which made Johnny feel a little resentful towards Kerry.
"Haha." Kerry smiled awkwardly.
"Don't really take my pants and do something unspeakable, okay?"
Johnny Silverhand's eyes widened.
