43. Information
From Max’s point of view, no, from the nearby residents of 28th-7th Avenue and the ownerless satellite overhead, it seemed that the lightweight cyborg was charging at the lunatic heavy cyborg recklessly. However, the world seen by Leonard with the Hexagon implant was much more complex and colorful.
After scanning the body of the psycho cyborg, the model of each part was launched, and the material, temperature, expected power, radio wave intensity, etc. were displayed in a real-time graph.
‘The brain chip is also broken…’
Psycho cyborg was certain. It took time to upload the hacking program to each implant part. And even if it stopped working, it was a problem.
As you can see, it was an implant equipped with an ignition device. If you break it without thinking, the fuel will burst and burn the non-refractory area. It would be a problem even if he died quietly in that state, but if he didn’t die and ran amok, Leonard’s party and nearby residents would be in danger.
‘Why are you doing such crazy implants?’
I had a lot of ideas, but I ran out of time. Psycho Cyborg’s flaming fist flew into the face. The diligent Hexagon Eye sent information even in the middle of it. The diameter is 30.88 cm, the weight is 6.35 kg, and the material is titanium, nickel, and chrome alloy. However, what was needed now was not information, but a flexible spine. Leaning back, he passed the punch. The sound of fists brushing was like the sound of a fighter jet taking off. Boa and the king-!
“Don’t shoot!”
Leonard shouted at Max who aimed the shotgun and fired the revolver backwards. Bang! bang-! It is a typical Naero Nambul, Ashitabi, but there was a reason. Killing wasn’t the purpose, it was aiming for the hamstrings.
“Keuaaagh-!”
The psycho cyborg stumbled. Even if the body was bulletproof with heavy metal, it would not be fine if an armor-piercing bullet hit a weak joint. However, it was not fatal. The psycho cyborg swung his arm in a staggering motion.
“Mr. Leonard!”
This is the downside of a lightweight body. It could not absorb the shock and flew away easily. thud-!
Leonard slammed into the building next door and breathed heavily. It didn’t end there. Psycho Cyborg jumped on all fours, supplementing his uncomfortable legs with long arms. Is it a gorilla or a chimpanzee?
“Eat this.”
Leonard detonated the hacking bomb that was finished uploading. When both legs were paralyzed, he could not control his strong arms and rolled forward. Suddenly -! The resulting fire melted the hair and artificial skin. It was like a real beast now.
“As expected, Mr. Leonard! Kill! Kill me!”
Max cheered, waving his fists. It was clear that he had completely forgotten about the contents of the request.
Leonard put away his revolver and drew an army knife. It’s a venerable weapon that has been proven in real battles for a long time, but I was a little disappointed with the reach. It was difficult to get close to that flame.
‘Wait until the fuel runs out…?’
By that time, the FAP will come and fire the machine gun with excitement. It’s their job, so I can’t say anything, but I didn’t want to give up the fish I caught. No, is it bulgogi?
“Max, let’s borrow some of your toys.”
“I’m past the age to play with those toys.”
“Oh, hurry up. If you leave it for too long, it will turn black.”
“That is a dangerous statement.”
If you have it, it is right that it will be useful someday. Leonard pulled out the Japanese blade and checked the blade. Tiger’s Claw It was well-maintained because it was a weapon the children cherished.
“I’ve never learned anything like kendo.”
With the power of the implant body and the titanium alloy blade, it was easy to do what a real samurai could not do. He held the hilt with both hands and held it high. The moment Psycho Cyborg spewed flames to burn Leonard, he swung down. Write-!
The sound of chopping people was similar to the sound of chopping cabbage. This wasn’t really necessary information.

Psycho Cyborg’s arms were cut off, both legs were broken, and tied to a pickup truck.
The living tissue connected to the mechanical arm was cut and bleeding was profuse. Hemostasis tool – A fire-breathing thrower was nearby, so I gave first aid, but if I leave it for a long time, I’ll die. I called ‘the broker’ Jake and made a brief report.
“One captured.”
-What? already?
Even the self-proclaimed best solver wouldn’t have known it would end so quickly. In fact, Leonard himself didn’t know, so he kept his bluff. After confirming a few things, the broker told me the meeting place. Max’s eyes sparkled with curiosity.
“Are you meeting the client now?”
“Well, probably not.”
The client will be a high-ranking member of the company, so it will be an agent who appears on the scene. I expected General Manager So-and-so and Deputy General Manager Smith, who were condescending with a lot of corporate mercenaries.
This prediction was only half right. It is true that he is a businessman and an agent, but there was no armed force. Doctors in white robes, who make Junk Town three times brighter, have taken care of the dying psycho cyborg.
“What are these people?”
Leonard and Max didn’t even look at it. It wasn’t that he was dismissive as a junk town fixer, but he looked busy as if he was being chased by something. I just couldn’t send it though. One of the white robes approached as I blocked the front and glanced at a revolver and a bloody knife.
“Are you Leonard Walker?”
“Yes.”
A handshake was refused. As a business man, it was not new to me. White Coat confirmed Leonard’s identity with an implanted eyeball and continued.
“First of all, thank you for the prompt handling.”
“Thank you on credit…”
“However, our commission is not over yet. Please continue to obtain samples until the cause is identified.”
“Sample?”
Max tilted his head. Maybe because of the tone, it didn’t sound like he was investigating a psycho cyborg for a good purpose. The white robes carried the shredded Psycho to the trailer in an instant and left.
“Where are you taking me?”
“I don’t know where, but it’s not a very good place.”
Leonard took a lollipop and climbed into the driver’s seat. It was a request worth 17,000 credits. I decided to show more sincerity.

Contrary to the desire, there was no result. Looks like you’ve used up all your luck this month.
I wandered around 28th and 29th streets all day, but I couldn’t find the psycho cyborg. The next day was similar. An unexpected psycho appeared on 23rd Street, but when he arrived after being contacted by Sigma, FAP had turned it into powder. I breathlessly passed by the red-hot cannon.
“Isn’t this easy?”
“Iknow, right. Normally, it only comes out when I turn on the news, but…”
Leonard wasted the third day and changed his method. To find it before it becomes psychotic.
“no way…”
“no way?”
“Forcibly inserting a snowball into a psycho and then handing it over to the client!”
“Do I look that evil?”
But it was a bit condescending. Entrepreneurs might actually try.
“Let’s go see Noah Lucas.”
“oh! Are you Noah?”
“…you need to correct the title.”
If you’re a snowball supplier, you’ll know gangs and scavengers showing signs of psychosis. Difficulty is high to investigate from the beginning, but there was Noah Lucas.
Leonard immediately opened his phone book and contacted Noah. The 20-year veteran solver received it as if he had waited.
– Leonard Walker? What’s up?
Kwakwang! Hood Deuk-! aaagh-!
Leonard reflexively lowered the volume, then raised it slightly.
“Are you busy right now?”
-little? They’re sucking drugs in groups… Get out of here!
It sounded like it was jumping and jumping. It was fortunate that it was not a video call. If I had seen it from that perspective, it was clear that I would have gone blind.
“The… Shall we call you later?”
-no. no. are you okay. Just now – zero car! – dealt with.
A familiar background sound was heard. It was the sound of chopping cabbage. Leonard was silent for a moment before revealing his purpose.
“It looks like things aren’t going well for you either, so why don’t we work together?”
-Cooperation? Would the broker hate it?
“We’re not courting the middleman.”
Noah Lucas laughed. It was terrifying to see smiling faces with bloody knives attached here and there.
-Come to 17th-9th Avenue ‘Drunk Donkey’. I’ll pack it up here and go right away.
“OK. See you later.”
Leonard took one look at the bright-eyed Max and started the engine. It was a face that I did not want to explain in many ways.

Junk Town 17th and 18th Streets are located on the hill south of A-044 City. That’s why they call it ‘Junk Hill’ or ‘Gabji Doom’, and some people from the Far East called it ‘Daldongnae’.
“Moon Town? something cool? Does this mean that the moon rises first?”
“Doesn’t that mean that I will die before lasting a month?”
“…Give me back my sensitivity.”
“I should have had something like that, I’ll give it back.”
Either name led to a poor slum. It was poorer than 25th Street, the garbage dump. Still, it’s a place where people live, so if you look carefully, you’ll find everything you’ll find. ‘Drunk Donkey’, a cheap tavern that sold industrial ethanol mixed with various things, was one of them.
Leonard stopped the pickup truck in the back alley of the tavern to check his weapons. Even if it was not a classic novel cliché, the bar was a good place to have a fight. The bartender bursts in as he pushes through the swing door mimicking the 19th century Wild West! shouted.
“We do not accept minors!”
“When are you kidding?”
Leonard sat down by the window without laughing. Max, a minor, was embarrassed and sat across from me.
“Why aren’t minors accepted?”
“There are no credits.”
“aha?”
100 years ago, a common sense person ordered flavored coffee and orange juice without hesitation. The mechanical head bartender came to the bar and said something about not ordering alcohol, but I also ignored it.
“Come to think of it, Leonard doesn’t drink or smoke? Do you only suck on candy every day?”
“Because it’s not good for you.”
Max laughed as if he had just heard a funny joke. The machine-headed bartender and the few customers also laughed. Leonard didn’t explain that it was real. Even so, the laughter went away quickly.
“Brother Walker, how are you?”
Noah Lucas arrives with a bright face. Looking at her expression, she seemed like a girl who had just gone on a date, but her body wasn’t like that. The blade was stored, but the blood on the blade still flowed. The whole body was covered in blood. “hey!” When the fearless bartender tried to say something, the customer across from him stopped him.
“No, Noah Lucas.”
It was a solution that shares history with the city. I was so exhausted that I couldn’t even make a sound.
“So, is the idiot over there a fixer?”
“Walker… Leonard Walker?”
Leonard’s nose lifted slightly. The past 7 years have not been in vain. However, Noah Lucas, who is famous for his daily life, didn’t mind and sat next to Max. Max’s face turned red. wouldn’t be angry
“You guys also contacted me because things weren’t going well, right? great. Shall we exchange information first?”
He was cool like a veteran. Leonard wanted it too.
