"Mom, what did Lin Wen do? He told me he would come tonight or tomorrow morning. ”

David entered the hospital room, looked at Gloria on the bed facing the window, and asked.

"He went to work." Gloria looked out the window and said, from here she could see the road, and even a little further on, to the overpass, which was where she had an accident earlier.

But judging by the speed of the traffic, everything has been calmed out.

There must have been a lot of deaths in the accident, but in just a few hours, everything was calm again.

This is Night City...

"Work?" David muttered, and subconsciously wanted to say that no one went to that guy's small clinic at all, but when he took out so much money, and what happened today had too much impact on David, he nodded and said, "I know." ”

Seeing the change in David's attitude towards Lin Wen, Gloria was a little curious, turned to look at David, and said, "You seem to have changed your opinion of him?" Can you talk to me about it, David. ”

"Actually, it's not that I hate him, it's just that I'm not used to it. He's been idle in front of me, and I thought he had been living in our house like a parasite with your money, but what happened today made me know that I couldn't do anything when the accident happened, and if it wasn't for him, I might have lost you, Mom..."

"What do you say, I suffered some skin injuries, and I can be cured in minutes when I go to other hospitals." Gloria raised her arm, patted her right hand on it, and said with a smile, "Look, I'm feeling good now." ”

Seeing Gloria's smiling face, David fell silent.

"What? Not convinced? I'm able to get out of bed and walk around now, and if it weren't for the medical bills, we would have been able to go home now. Gloria said as she got up.

David hurriedly pressed Gloria, looked down at Gloria, and said in a low voice: "You don't have to lie to me, Mom, I already know what the situation is in the hospital over there..."

"I'm scared... I'm really scared. ”

Gloria was stunned for a moment, and then, she understood what David meant.

Reaching out and gently wrapping her arms around David's neck, Gloria sighed and said, "Aren't I okay?" Don't worry, it's all in the past. ”

"Hmm."

"But how do you kid know about this? Didn't I let you go to those places? Or do you still have a connection with those black doctors? I said David, what are you thinking about when you don't study well all day long? Also, what to do with your head down? Look at me, look at the floor for what? Can the floor tell you how to climb to the top of the company? ”

David: "..."

"Don't shake your legs!"

.......

Little Chinatown in Watson, in an apartment not far from the afterlife—

When Sasha got home, the first thing she did was take off all her clothes and put on only a thin infiltration suit.

There are traces of various prosthetic embedding on the body, including some high-end goods, but most of the body is still original.

Actually, she's quite rich, and if it weren't for that guy's love of originals, she might have changed some.

It's like Qi Wei, she stripped naked and lay down in the ice water, the blue one is glowing, that's really cool!

Sasha wants Blue Nano too, but he's going to hate it, well, forget it.

As for why she has money, of course, it's because powerful hackers are in high demand in Night City, and hackers are no different from lone wolves, although Sasha is serving Mann Squad, but Sasha can get a lot of work, and many people will contact her every once in a while, hoping that she can work with her team, but Sasha refuses.

Staying in Mann's squad made Sasha feel relaxed and happy, and Mann was very righteous, never ambiguous when dividing the money, and even would rather suffer her own losses, so she would refuse the invitations of those big teams, and chose Mann's team.

After all, a lot of guys will quarrel because of dozens of euros, die because of this kind of thing, and then be dismantled into several pieces and sold or something, that would be too miserable.

But now, well, she's also out of Mann's team.

Sasha's house is not a lot of space, but it is definitely not small, this apartment sits in Little Chinatown, this is a chaotic but beautiful place,

The rooms have a higher floor, but they are extremely small compared to the tall buildings outside.

After entering the bathroom, Sasha soaked herself in ice water, felt the temperature of her body drop, and let out a cry of comfort.

"Meow~"

The ice water irritated the skin, making Sasha exhale unconsciously,

And then...

"Drip-"

The brows furrowed, Sasha's mouth pursed, a little upset, who, who is so annoying?

Why call when people are relaxed!

was about to refuse, but when she saw the contact, Sasha jerked, and then hit her toes against the wall, and bent over to stand up on one foot in pain, Sasha tried to rub her toes, but her feet stepped on a small block of ice, and the next moment - she fell down with her head on the ground, but the phone was also connected, and Sasha struggled in the icy water.

"Gurgling, gurgling..."

“？”

Lin Wen looked at Sasha in the video, the black bubble head fluttered in the water, revealing her somewhat fleshy face, and a pair of cat eyes full of the word "miserable".

"What are you doing? Are you swimming right now? ”

"Ahh

"If you're sick, who will swim in the bathtub of your own home? I'm in the shower right now, by the way, are you going to come over to me? Propping herself up, Sasha sat down on the tub and looked at her feet, which were original!

At this moment, the blue nail polish on the big toe was knocked off, and she looked at Lin Wen on the other end painfully, and saw that he was walking on the street, and hurriedly said.

He's out!

This guy is always staying in the little clinic in Santo Domingo, or in the woman's house, and this is out... Did you come to find yourself?

"Hmm..."Looking at Sasha's body, Lin Wen coughed.

At Lin Wen's gaze, Sasha was not shy and straightened, although it was not as blue as Qi Wei, but it was also very good-looking.

After all, she has sports all year round, and then she has the native goods he likes, hey, naturally it will attract him.

"Forget it, next time."

Lin Wen touched his nose and was already on the cable car.

"Four hours ago, there was a riot on the road leading to Santo Domingo, you help me find the news, a few men from the Animal Gang caused it, probably in..." Lin Wen stretched out his hand and clicked a few circles, then sent it to Sasha, and then said: "It's the area around here, you look for pictures of a few people from the Animal Gang on the spot, and then send it to me." ”

"You're going to get in trouble with the Animal Gang?" Sasha was stunned for a moment, and then said happily.

She was not worried about Lin Wen's safety, in her opinion, Lin Wen should have done this kind of thing a long time ago!

He's so strong, but he's always nested in Gloria, and now, he's finally willing to go out!

"It's not that I'm going to trouble them, they're looking for trouble with me now."

"Wait a minute, I'll go check on the Internet, I just came back and saw the news..."

In the video, Sasha touches her finger to the side of her face, and her fingertips touch a small ring, which lights up yellow, and Sasha's eyes begin to change focus.

"Hmm, there's news, Nokota transported a batch of supplies, which was targeted by the Animal Gang, killing and wounding seven people, causing losses..."

"Send me their pictures, and can you find their stronghold?" Lin Wen asked.

"I'll send you the photos now, but I'll try the stronghold, it's more troublesome to find the Animal Gang, you know, they are everywhere in the city, and they don't have many electronic devices, no one knows where their real stronghold is."

Lin Wen nodded and leaned on the cable car.

Dozens of minutes later, Sasha was moving.

Dense beads of sweat overflowed on her lips, and her face was flushed, and Sasha, who had become like a "physical" vapor Ji, said with a smile: "Found it, Lin Wen, we are really lucky." The middleman who posted this task sold their information, but it is understandable, after all, these guys have gone too far, and the people who attacked the company on the highway in broad daylight caused quite a stir, and that guy directly confessed to them in order to get out. ”

"I don't think anyone but the Animals Gang would want to trouble that middleman, because it's not worth it, and who knows how many people this group of guys will know? can be a middleman, and the connections will not be bad. Sasha said with a smile as she reached out and pointed something in the air, flicking her arm as if she was sliding against something.

"Alright."

"Uh, you've already sent it?" Lin Wen stared blankly at his panel.

Forgive the elderly for not playing with this kind of thing.

"Silly... Stupid, find it yourself. Sasha originally wanted to say stupid, but after thinking about it, she changed her words and said something stupid.

Lin Wen buckled his face, and it didn't take much time to find the secret email from Sasha.

"The industrial area in the north of the city in Watson... I think it's already a wilderness, right? Full of abandoned factories. ”

Sasha nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, but I'm not sure if they're there, the Animal Gang is different from other gangs, they don't have a fixed base, and they like to "entertain themselves", and they can rarely be found in entertainment venues, but remember to be careful if you want to go there, it's also the territory of the Vortex Gang at night, and those crazy people are dangerous." ”

"I see, thanks."

"Don't say thank you to me, if you really want to thank me, come to me."

Sasha let her body lie down in the ice water, and spit bubbles with a grunt: "Leave that aunt... Stay with me for two days. ”

"That's not going to work, Gloria almost died at the hands of those Animals Gang, and I'll have to go back to take care of her when I'm done." Lin Wen raised his eyebrows and said.

"Huh? Is she okay? Wow, no wonder you're going out..."Sasha's expression immediately turned resentful.

The cat is looking at you, but the cat is aggrieved!

"Anla, it's just a small problem, I didn't heal your serious injury at the beginning?"

"Also, do you need me to come with you? I can help you hack them! ”

"You mean the Black Animals?"

"Uh... Well, when I didn't say it. ”

Hanging up the communication, Lin Wen leaned against the wall, and after reaching the goal, Lin Wen looked at the streets that were empty during the day and sighed.

Well, I had to walk through it on my legs.

But... Isn't it time for me to buy a car?

NID, no one will like this.

Lin Wen didn't like this either.

The smell and the look of the nose are disgusting, but there's nothing you can do, after all, you can't expect a forgotten abandoned industrial area to look good and be used as a stronghold by a bunch of crazy people.

Funnily enough, the street leading to the NID is lined with shiny apartment buildings, which are incompatible with the scene of the industrial area, and look like some rich people have deliberately arranged it here.

It's like deliberately separating the NID from the bustling downtown area.

"It's still early, forget it... Find a place to take a nap. ”

In the afternoon, Nid, a "young man" took out a cigarette, knocked on the cigarette case, lit a cheap cigarette, and walked in leisurely.

—————

PS: Seongbuk Industrial Zone used to be a thriving industrial area in Watson District, but now it has been abandoned by the company, and most of the factories have long since become dysfunctional due to the damage caused by the earthquake and failed investments.
