A Frenzied Fan

In the underworld, face equals power.

Clearly, this time, the senior engineer showed no respect for the God of Gamblers.

"Young Gao, the young men in your gang have quite the temper," the old man said meaningfully, and then fell silent.

A glamorous woman dressed in a Japanese courtesan style looked at Gao Jin with interest and asked curiously, "Is he Mr. G from Hanging Street?"

Gao Jin's expression was slightly unpleasant, but he quickly recovered and said with a simple smile, "That's right, he is the prosthetic doctor of Hanging Neck Street, and also a guest of honor of our Welfare Gang."

The Second Route Marshal and the honored guest are two different concepts.

"Is Madam Red Dream interested in our Mr. G?"

"I wouldn't say I'm interested, but I heard from a woman with a bad temper that one of her husbands recently came to the city, and she sounded quite boastful about it."

Gao Longtou frowned, his thick eyebrows furrowing.

Does Mr. G have a background?

The old man in front of us, and this Lady Red Dream, can actually be considered to be the same type of people, which are called demi-humans.

When the main continent where the empire was located was destroyed, the surviving imperial people crossed the ocean and came to this Guanzhong region. They intermarried with the locals, and their offspring were called demi-humans.

These individuals possessed both imperial technology and local connections, and through intermarriage and cooperation, they formed a vast network of interests.

Although they are all very low-key, their backgrounds are unfathomable.

These people have a common nickname—imperial blood nobles.

For example, the lady in front of us, Madam Hongmeng, although she looks like a noblewoman in her early forties, is actually over 80 years old and has lived through two eras.

Even the Welfare Gang itself only gained a foothold in the outer city because it received support from the forces of the Demi-human Continent.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Gao Long's mind, but the only thing he was certain of was that he was going to train his own prosthetic doctor.

At No. 3-301, Employee Lane, the senior engineer, who was originally planning to finish all the remaining human body modifications in one go, had to stop to receive an uninvited guest.

"It's quite comfortable here after staying for a while."

At this moment, Alu, the stand-in actress for the famous virtual idol Aidulu, crossed her legs, revealing her pink underwear, and skillfully smoked a cigarette, filling the entire room with smoke.

"My sister will be back in a bit, and she doesn't like the smell of smoke."

The senior engineer glanced at the other person, his eyes flashing with a tentacle-like light. The next moment, the surrounding smoke condensed into an ashtray, which landed in the other person's hand.

"What kind of technology is this?" Aru asked curiously, picking up the ashtray. It was so light and flimsy that it was almost invisible.

After his consciousness broke through two hundred, the senior engineer was able to project his mind normally, so controlling the smoke was naturally not a problem.

"Get to the point. And where's your agent? Did you sneak over here again?" The senior engineer didn't mince words with the other party.

After their first collaboration, there were quickly a second and a third. Rabbit-tailed Adorable, school swimsuit Adorable, mechanical Adorable—their bodies were practically completely modified by the high-level engineer.

If it weren't for the advanced "bionic technology" of the high-level engineers, coupled with their ability to modify organisms, these modifications would have been impossible.

The benefit of these modifications is that she has risen from Stand No. n to Stand No. 1, in short, her personal Stand.

The other party also became more and more familiar with the senior engineer, and would often come over to smoke and vent their frustrations.

"Just so you know, if you want to do any unauthorized modifications, you'll have to pay extra."

"Money, money, money, you're obsessed with money," Aru rolled her eyes. "Don't worry, the people you're talking to this time have plenty of money."

As soon as she finished speaking, a hazy figure emerged from Alu's body. A girl wearing a white dress with her smooth black hair swaying slightly, she looked like an angel descending to earth when she stepped out of the white light.

With the same looks and the same figure, the two Adornos put together almost immediately make people realize what a true global idol is.

The senior engineer remained calm, for no other reason than that his real-life counterpart, the Rich Lady Aiai Prototype, was even more attractive than hers.

He was more interested in the system panel.

[You are enveloped in a pure aura and have entered the 'Mind Purification' state. Your Willpower is over 100 points, and this state is immune to saves.]

[You are enveloped in a blessed aura and have entered the "Wonderful World" state. Perception +10%. If your Perception exceeds 50, this state is immune to a saving throw.]

[You are under the blessing of life aura, increasing your health regeneration by 1 point per second]

[You...]

A dozen or so additional status effects appeared. Although the senior engineer could exempt most of them, he couldn't help but develop a slight liking for the other party.

"A decent piece of work, about 50% of my level back then."

"Mr. G, I want to make a deal with you," Adorlu's voice was as pure as spring water, refreshing yet not completely captivating.

"What do you want to modify?" the senior engineer asked, intrigued.

Since his transmigration, he has either been modified into flesh or machine, and his skills that once made him a legend in the martial arts world have become somewhat rusty. It's rare to have this opportunity.

He decided to give the other party a 10% discount.

"That's not it. I want Mr. G to help me stop someone."

"Ha?"

Arlu interrupted impatiently, "I'll get to the point quickly. Aidolu has run into a perverted stalker who's been harassing her almost around the clock. We want you to find him."

"Arresting people isn't my forte," the senior engineer said with a look of resistance. "I'm a cyborg doctor, not a detective."

He paused.

"And, the one who can hack into your company's Electronic Barrier and then harass virtual idols is Cyber Hacker, right?"

Both of them—no, both the person and the idol—looked at the senior engineer with some surprise.

In the City That Never Sleeps, besides various organizations and forces, there are two types of people who are not to be trifled with: prosthetic doctors and Cyber Hacker.

The former makes people lose their humanity, the latter makes them become perverted.

The senior engineer shrugged. "Don't look at me like that. You're the top star in your agency, heavily protected in every sense of the word. I'm more curious why you didn't notify your company. Although the neural editors aren't as skilled as Cyber Hacker, there's strength in numbers. With your fame, you could have just asked the professionals in the mother city to handle it."

"That's what I said too, but Aidolu insisted on letting him off the hook, since this pervert is her fan." Aidolu was furious at Aidolu's lack of self-control.

"Then I'm even less able to help. My principle in doing business is that I can't do business with incompetent teammates."

Aru stared wide-eyed at the senior engineer, seemingly for the first time that a man—no, a living person—could refuse Aru.

"So what exactly do you need to offer to get Mr. G to help?" Adorlos asked gently.

"Hmm," the senior engineer stroked his chin, "As a top-tier virtual product, the technology used to create you should be the most advanced one."

"Yes, sir, do you want my source code?" Adorlu said sincerely, "But my source code is scattered in various databases in the company, which are heavily guarded, and even that person can't get in."

"That's none of your business. What's your personal opinion?" the senior engineer said with interest.

Adorlu thought about it seriously for a while and nodded.

"I do."

"Beep beep—"
