Capítulo 83: Run, run as fast as you can

Jia sat up in her pod, disengaged the cord to her cybernetic implant and rubbed her eyes. She breathed and looked across the games room.

"He's still here!" She rolled out and stormed across the room.

I could barely see her as she moved out of my vision. I called, "Soon." And smiled. "I'll use the robot to move myself into the pod and I'll be back in when Pieter gives the green light."

The hacker spun a soldering iron with his fingers. "Get your ass in there big man, I'm almost done."

The wheelchair robot lifted me off my bed and tilted me upright the arms underneath is legs slowly lowered me in place. There was a cord from my wrist into the robot.

"You have an arm implant?"

"Yeah. It's the best way to control this thing. It's all the craze I hear."

The Russian voice said, "All the cool kids have implants in their wrists. Neck ones are only for pod gamers." He held up his arm and showed Jia his own wrist implant.
