Night, Santo Domingo.

This is Night City's Old Town, both an industrial center and a residential area, home to one of Mann's secret bases.

Today, Mann received a call from an old friend.

"Gloria, the money is running out again."

Answering the call, Mann said with a smile.

They have worked together many times and are old friends who know each other very well.

Usually Gloria took the initiative to contact him to ship, and at the same time, it was also a subtle message that she had run out of money.

Although it is not known why she spends money so quickly, it does not affect the transaction between them.

"Haha, yes, you know my consumption too."

Gloria smiled bitterly, and her tone was quite helpless.

She gets a lot of money every time she trades, but if she wants her son to stay at Arasaka Academy to continue his studies, it's just enough to sustain herself.

However, for the sake of her son's future, it doesn't matter how hard she is.

"Let's find out, let's talk about what is good this time."

"Military-grade Sianweistan."

"What! You talk about it again! ”

"I know you're surprised by Mann, but I'm trading for a military-grade Snwestein."

She had taken a huge risk to get it this time, believing that Mann would be able to 'eat' the order, after all, no cyberpunk could resist Silwinstein's charm.

Even the installation and use of Snweistein will put a severe load on the body.

"I'm really surprised, I didn't expect it to fall into your hands, my luck is really good."

Military-level Sianweistan, this is a good thing that can be met but not sought, n times stronger than ordinary prosthetics, I didn't expect my old friend to be so powerful this time.

To be honest, he was moved, and it wasn't an ordinary heartbeat.

Even if it was a heavy hemorrhage this time, even if it was earned from Xu Qingshan during this time, he would take it.

"Isn't it exciting, I knew you would like it."

After listening to Mann's words, Gloria breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Although she believed that Mann couldn't resist Ann Weistein's charm, accidents sometimes came so by chance, and now she was relieved.

"You guessed it, I'm really impressed. At the highest price, I want it. ”

Mann waved his hand, and he was arrogant.

Isn't it just a little Sianwestein, who Mann bought?

And as a friend, he directly offered the highest price.

"The boss is magnificent, but I have a 'small' request before the deal."

Gloria was a little embarrassed to say that, Mann was obviously enough, but there was no way, reality forced her, now the washing machines at home were in arrears, and she needed money.

"It's all old friends, just say it."

"Uh...... It is...... That one...... Can you transfer the money first, I promise I'll hand over Sianweistan to you later! ”

Blushing, Gloria herself felt very embarrassed.

When they do this, they are all cash on delivery, and they have to inspect the goods before payment.

It's very taboo to pay first and ship later, and reputation doesn't work in Night City.

"Yes, can the money still be transferred to the previous account?"

After a moment of silence, Mann agreed to Gloria's 'little' request.

He was willing to believe his old friend, maybe she was really in trouble, otherwise he wouldn't have risked countless times more than before to steal the military-level Sianweistan.

Even if you are really deceived, then ......

"Well, yes. Thank you Mann, I don't know how to thank you. ”

Gloria is sincerely grateful to Mann, there are very few people in Night City who can do this.

"No thanks, we're all friends."

As he spoke, Mann slid through the money to Gloria.

"I'll transfer the money, you can take a look."

"I saw it, thank you so much, the pickup address is still the old place."

Looking at the skyrocketing balance, Gloria couldn't hide the joy in her heart.

…………

"Who, talking for so long."

Beside Mann, Dolio stared at Mann with a smile.

"Gloria, our old friend."

"She's short of money again?"

Hearing Gloria, Dolio casually asked.

"She wasn't short of money that time."

As he spoke, Mann smiled and spread his hands.

Gloria is notoriously short of money, and the amount of each transaction with her is not small, but it can't last long.

"yes, I don't know why she's so short of money."

To be honest, Dorio was curious about why Gloria was so short of money, but considering that it was the other party's privacy, and she didn't have to guess to know that it was the kind that couldn't be said.

"However, this time I feel that she is even more short of money, and she has actually reached the point where she has to pay first."

"You paid? Full? ”

"yes, yes."

"What did you buy?"

"Military San Westein."

Boom~

As soon as Sylvestan finished speaking, Mann received a heavy blow to the head from Dorio.

"How much did it cost?"

Looking at Mann, Dolio looked helpless.

You're still like this, why did you die with you in the first place, what a bastard.

"*** euro."

Facing Dolio, Mann could only smile and tell how much he had spent.

It's not much, that is, it took seventy percent of the money he earned from Xu Qingshan, and he felt it was worth it.

"Okay, it's still the highest price, you're really generous."

"Ah, Gloria, you know, it's okay."

Boom~

Another punch slammed into Mann's head, making a non-heavy metal impact.

"Not even Gloria, you'll have to discuss it with me next time."

"Yes, yes, I'll discuss it with you next time."

Mann understood his wife's words, and she agreed to transfer money to Gloria, but she was a little unhappy about transferring money without consulting her.

Originally, he also wanted to discuss it first, but considering that Dorio might think more, plus how much he earned this time,...... Anyway, he didn't do it for various reasons.

This time, it was indeed him who was wrong.

"This time...... Are you still going to pretend to be yourself? ”

As his emotions calmed down, Dorio asked questions he had never wanted to mention.

Although Mann's body has never been the same, as the number of prostheses increases, especially those like Ann Westin's, the physical and mental load can skyrocket.

Cyberpunks can turn into cybermaniacs at any time.

"Yes, put it on me, no problem."

A calm smile appeared on his face, as if he had completely ignored the threat of Sianweistan.

…………

Now, with an important piece of news on the air, the whereabouts of the military-grade Sianwestein in the body of former Lieutenant James Joris are still unknown, and those who provide information will be rewarded............

"Lieutenant James Joris who died, Snwestein who disappeared,...... The story begins. ”

Listening to the news inserted in the advertisement, a smile rose on the corner of Xu Qingshan's mouth.

As a result of his incursions, the gang is now a good boy, and Gloria Martinez and David Martinez may have a new fate.

If there hadn't been a car accident, would David still have become a Night City legend if David's mom Gloria hadn't died?

The answer is, no.
