Players Invade Cyberpunk

Wolseck was even stupider than Lin Miao and Gloria imagined.

Although extorting patients is common practice for ERO and often done blatantly, at least they wait until the patient is unconscious and the surgery is half-done before waking them up for extortion.

Don't want to pay? I'll just throw you onto the streets to die.

But now, instead of waiting for Kotaisky to stabilize, Wolseck was eager to threaten him.

Gloria had been waiting quietly outside the operating room, and she confirmed that Wolseck didn't recognize Kotaisky, only seeing him as a fat sheep to extort.

She made her move.

Smack!

She slapped Wolseck's face first, then grabbed the contract and shredded it to pieces.

?

Wolseck instinctively touched his cheek, feeling a burning sting.

????

He touched his face again and looked at Gloria. After slapping him, she didn't even acknowledge him but turned her back on him to comfort the injured man and started surgery with her surgical tools.

The sting on his face was overshadowed by the trampling of his dignity. He could understand if Gloria started arguing or fought over uneven spoils.

But what the hell are you doing?

Ignoring me, you push the patient into my operating room before I even start extorting, and I get slapped. Being hit is one thing, but then she dared to rip the contract apart and operate in front of me.

He couldn't understand why this woman slapped him or why she dared to perform surgery right in front of him.

Complete disregard.

A mysterious and incredulous sense of humiliation and anger rose from his heart.

You... you seeking death?

Although the scalpel isn't short, it's sharp enough, even for murder.

Being a black-market doctor, he's never had issues with killing. At worst, he'd quit afterwards. In Night City, black doctors don't go hungry.

Enraged, Wolseck quickly pulled out a sharp scalpel, ready to take down the woman who deliberately provoked him.

Kotaisky, lying on the hospital bed, saw this but was too injured and drugged up to speak, so he desperately blinked to signal Gloria. She had already reached into her jacket, holding onto a handgun, ready to take this guy down the moment he attacked.

Just as Wolseck was about to make his move, Martin, whom Gloria had sent to get help, suddenly returned with reinforcements.

Tangkx, the urgent care department head, stepped in and saw Wolseck with a knife ready to strike, and immediately shouted

"Wolseck! What are you doing!"

Then he saw the face of the fat man lying on the operating table

Fuck!

His attending physician was about to kill the company shareholder!

No time for fear, he slapped Wolseck himself.

You're screwing the patient, fine, but why take a knife against a company shareholder?

After hitting Wolseck, Tangkx screamed

"Where's security? Get this bastard out!"

Urgent footsteps immediately echoed outside the door.

You might doubt capital's operations and technical abilities, but never doubt their resolve for violent suppression.

Even if ERO is down on its luck, they never relax security inside company buildings.

A few burly security guards rushed into the operating room and, without a word, immediately took Wolseck down.

As he was dragged away, Wolseck was spitting curses and struggling.

Up till now he was still dazed. What the hell just happened?

While Gloria focused on performing surgery for Kotaisky, utterly ignoring this sacrificial lamb who conned her out of money yesterday.

Due to her experience treating various combat injuries for small-time thugs, her control over a scalpel was very adept. The department head also timely joined the fray, and in less than half an hour, Kotaisky's original arms and legs were reattached, and the bullets inside were extracted and the wounds stitched up.

Given that the injured party was a shareholder, the medical materials used were of the highest grade. It wouldn't be long before this shareholder could return to the battlefield as vibrant as ever.

"Phew..." Having brushed past death twice, Kotaisky let out a long breath from the hospital bed. "I almost thought I was going to die today."

Afterwards, he grabbed the head's hand and poured out his grievances. "Tangkx, if it weren't for this excellent employee today, I'd have been taken by those scavengers for organ harvesting. You don't know how dangerous that scene was, dozens of scavengers chasing me down. It was all her who got me out of there. You have to promote her; we need more talented people like her in our company."

"And that damned bastard, he actually grabbed my hand and forced me to sign some bullshit surgery contract. He didn't even recognize me! How do you manage these people?"

Organ harvesting, signing contracts...

Actually, this scenario can be attributed to Wolseck being new, unable to recognize his company's shareholder, getting caught in a setup, plus this rich third generation often indulging in debauchery. He's lucky to visit the company once a year. Who would know him without working here for a while?

"Rest assured, Lord Kotaisky, I've already fired that guy."

"Fired?" Kotaisky's voice turned sharp "You should've killed him! At least, send him to the NCPD!"

He was very dissatisfied with this outcome, but Tangkx had no choice.

ERO isn't like the Trauma Team's big companies; if Wolseck went to the NCPD to file a complaint and spilled the dirt, things would go badly for him...
