Chapter 12: Mint-flavored snot
Afterlife nightclub, in a private room-
Stanley's news channel is something that every guy will listen to, especially the mercenaries at the bottom, if there are no hackers, this is one of the ways they can obtain information from the outside world, and at this moment, Stanley's voice is heard in the next life.
"Santo Domingue has another power outage this time, repeated power outages, and if you want me to say, there must be a repeat offender who is stealing electricity. Then, let's see the latest news from the Aradishes company..."
In the room, after listening to Stanley's news, the cat girl in a tight pink coat showed a smug smile, looked at Mann, and said, "Mann, I, no, can you do such a thing?" ”
Sasha lifted the bottle and took a sip, squinting her eyes in comfort, she finally put her mind at ease.
Well, she doesn't actually have to worry about that guy's safety at all, that's a super monster, he doesn't have any prosthetics but has such combat power, should he say what kind of super gene warrior it is?
Well, her face was still slightly red, Sasha looked at Mann and said, "103 people, Mann, that's 103 gang members." ”
Mann was silent, gritting his back teeth.
Dorio saw Mann's emotions and reached under the table and patted him lightly on the thigh.
Qi Wei's eyes lit up, and she sat in the corner smoking a cigarette, not knowing what she was thinking.
Lucy also smoked quietly and silently watched Sasha with a smile on her face.
Pyrra and Falco, who had been called to pick them up, also sat in silence.
Only one guy hadn't figured out the situation yet, and Rebecca, who was dazed, hugged Qi Wei's arm loudly, looked at Sasha and burped and said:
"What are you talking about? What solved 103 people? What do they gang fire and do we care? We're just a small group, and we're just making a little money. ”
"Sometimes I envy you for not having a brain," Pyra sighed as she sat down, and his personality was cheerful, and he was quiet after listening to Stanley's news.
He even hesitated, he tried to convince Mann, even if Mann would be angry with him.
That's definitely not something they can provoke.
"Huh? Bastard brother, what are you talking about? Rebecca opened her mouth and looked at Pila.
"Shut up." Qi Wei raised her hand and struck Rebecca in the head with a gentle hand knife, precisely in the middle of the hair.
"Bastard old woman, you want to die, don't you!" Rebecca immediately raised her head and looked at Qi Wei fiercely.
"What the hell does he mean, Sasha, I haven't offended him." Mann spoke.
Dorio breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Mann's words.
It seems to be a reckless man, but in fact Mann is a very shrewd man, and Dorio understands what Mann means.
Mann, back down.
"Mann, Lin Wen is doing it for your good, you really should stop." Sasha looked at Mann.
"Is it good for me?" Mann whispered, then, laughing self-deprecatingly, he nodded, "I see, I'll think about it, let him rest assured, I'm never going to be a cyber maniac." ”
"I'm sorry, Mann," Sasha said apologetically, getting up and picking up her bag, and she left the room.
And at this moment, Qi Wei and Lucy moved at the same time.
Trying to break free of Rebecca, who was holding her, Kivi and Lucy looked at each other before catching up with Sasha at the same time.
Qi Wei still has a dissatisfied Rebecca on her body.
"Aren't you going to stop it?" After the four women left, Pyra looked at Mann and spoke.
"Why do you want to stop?" Mann shook his head and took a big sip of his drink, he continued, "Qiwei and Lucy didn't sell themselves to my team, they just worked with us, and as hackers, isn't it normal to want to find out about such a horrible guy in Night City?" ”
Pyra hesitated for a moment and said, "You have a good relationship with him?" ”
"If it's good to see him a few times, then I think I have a pretty good relationship with him." Mann smiled heartily.
Now that you have backed down, there is no need to dwell on it anymore.
"Come on, Pila, let's get on drinking, all right, Dolio, don't look at me like that, I've already thought about it. What else can I do but agree? That's a Vortex maniac, he killed more than 100 people in one night, can I still fight him? Wouldn't it be for me to stop the progress of the prosthesis installation first? It's not that I won't be fitted with prosthetics. ”
Dorio nodded, "It's best if you think like that." ”
"As for Kivi and Lucy, don't worry, Mann, they'll be back."
Mann looked at Dorio angrily and said, "I'm not worried. ”
"Drink!"

In the senior ward of the hospital -
"You, where did you go last night?" Seeing Lin Wen, David hurriedly stood up and asked at the same time.
"What is this for?" Lin Wen said as he shoved an energy bar into David's mouth.
Meat content... No, 30% insect energy bars are full of protein!
So who said that? How many times more protein is bug than beef?
Hawkers, Lin Wen forgot.
As for the taste of the energy bar, well, it's barbecue, but the texture is very bad, like chewing dry dirt.
David didn't react, a foreign object appeared in his mouth, chewed and chewed, and he looked at Lin Wen blankly.
What's that?
Just, just a black shadow flashed, and there was something in his mouth!
David He suddenly discovered that Lin Wen, a sick man, obviously looked thin and tall, but his strength and speed were amazing, wait, why didn't he react to this matter before?
Yes! All along, he only needs one hand to be able to easily hold himself, David used to think that he was too thin, but now that he has grown up, isn't it the same?
And whenever he was faced with something he threw at him, he could easily dodge it.
Damn, now that I think about it, David found that Lin Wen had shown these abnormalities not long after he had known him!
"Biotech's new nutritional paste, Gloria, this thing seems to be quite expensive, right? I remember the last time I watched an advertisement, it seemed to cost more than 400 euros? God, that's going to be up to a month's salary. Lin Wen walked to Gloria's hospital bed and said in surprise when he saw the nutritional paste on the silver plate on the table.
David chewing on an energy bar: "..."
How many hundred euros top your monthly salary?
You, you took out tens of thousands of euros yesterday without changing your face!
Spit out the two-yuan energy bar in his mouth, opened a nutritional paste, Lin Wen sucked it up, and then, he frowned.
"Hmm... It's not very tasty. ”
"What kind of smell does it smell like?" Gloria looked at Lin Wen curiously.
Lin Wen handed over the nutritional paste, "You can taste it, I think it's a bit like mint-flavored snot..."
Gloria didn't stretch out her hand, but opened her mouth, and then just looked at Lin Wen.
"How old are you?" Thinking about Gloria's care, Lin Wenyi raised his eyebrows.
"I'm sick now!" Gloria said aggrievedly, "You have to take care of me." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll feed you." Lin Wen stretched out his hand and handed it over, Gloria lowered her head and took the suction mouth, and after taking a sip, she opened her mouth and spit out her tongue, frowning like Lin Wen.
"It's really unpalatable..."
"Right? It's like snot, and it's mint-flavored snot. ”
Gloria nodded and said, "I really don't know what those rich people think, a few hundred dollars to buy something like this..."
David, who was watching this scene on the side: "..."
David: I, how do I feel like I'm superfluous? Am I not supposed to be standing here?
——————
I quite like the character of Qi Wei, although she betrayed David later, but her reality, and some places where she is... Well, cute.
For example, spitting "rainbow" in the car, failing to understand Mann's saying David "**", and occasionally some small movements, are quite cute.
The phone call she made to Falco at the trash can in the end was actually quite distressing for her.
