    Summary

    While scraping together ennies selling refurbished junk from the outskirts of Night City, 10-year-old-V comes across a Zetatech Bombus being harassed by a bunch of kids. Taking pity on the drone, she saves it, only to find that it acts with a disconcerting amount of autonomy for something that was made to microwave scop-dogs and spy on chooms.

    Summary

    Delamain’s always had V’s back, in every corner of Night City – why should cyberspace fall outside of his service area?

    After a failed engram transfer, V’s disembodied sentience is rescued from beyond the Blackwall and safely downloaded onto a partition of Delamain’s AI core, where she must get to grips with a new existence unbound by physical limitations.
    But with two powerful digital entities now in residence at Delamain HQ – one of them barely in control, drunk on power, and the other growing alarmingly human – NetWatch is quick to start sniffing around. Delamain and his new Human Relations Advisor must urgently find balance with each other...or risk losing everything.

    (Can be read standalone or as a continuation of Car No.21)
