The Masafusa-gumi member’s face was twisted with effort as he strained against Lucy’s monowire.
Suddenly, his thigh exploded in a burst of blood. Off balance, he tumbled down the stairs. Lucy retracted the monowire, then flicked it out again, the golden filament coiling around his neck like a serpent.
He looked horrified and fought frantically to free hims...

The Scavenger who spoke stroked Ryoko’s face in a gentle tone. “It won’t hurt, sweetie. Don’t cry now.”
Realizing she had truly fallen into the abyss, Ryoko’s eyes showed nothing but despair. Tears traced silently down her cheeks, overwhelmed by fear, panic, regret, and helplessness. It felt like an endless darkness pressing down on her, making it almost imp...

Because of the Cyber Black Key Nantō Masayuki had struck her with earlier, the virus it carried was still battling the self-ICE installed in Chihiro’s body. On top of that, her severe blood loss had caused her to briefly lose consciousness.
“I’m fine. Don’t cry, Ryoko. You have to be strong.”
Chihiro wiped the tears from her daughter’s face, but her h...

Chihiro tracked Nantō Masayuki with the muzzle of her kinetic SMG, but he disappeared behind the rooftop, slipping out of sight.
“Mom?”
“Ryoko, go hide over there.”
Chihiro set Ryoko down and pointed to a small booth nearby, which looked like an old-fashioned phone box from the previous century—except it had no phone inside.
Ryoko didn...

She had installed not just one pair of Mantis Blades, but more than two.
Chihiro held her daughter in one arm and used her other hand to shield her daughter’s eyes.

Kidnapping, torture, and murder were nothing more than small pleasures in their depraved lives.
There were always some young, hotheaded, and reckless Tiger Claws—especially those who got drunk—who liked to bully others on the streets. They never cared about any so-called gang principles. Although most of the Tiger Claw’s higher-ups despised such behavior, they wou...

“There was no other way,” Viktor continued. “In the end, Chihiro—who was once a soldier—had no choice but to do dirty work for the Tyger Claws to pay off her debts. She spent years doing it, finally managed to clear what she owed…but because she turned out to be such a useful tool, they wouldn’t let her leave.

Viktor folded his arms across his chest. “Yeah, that did happen. Why?”
“The woman was part of the Tyger Claws, but now she’s run off—get it?”
“Nope.” Viktor stared at them coolly, showing zero deference to the gang’s numbers. “She was a client, and I’m a ripperdoc. If a customer needs something, I’m not gonna turn them away.”

Ripperdocs generally didn’t follow best practices either—losing customers meant losing income, and few people in Night City could afford that kind of principle. If a client demanded a certain implant, well, money talked.

Iron bars, an operating table used for implant surgeries, plus a myriad of strange devices that Leo couldn’t identify—pretty much standard fare in Night City come 2077. Any legitimate hospital or ripperdoc clinic would have the same.
