At eight o'clock that night, the valley area fell silent, and many households in Lin Wen's apartment building were brightly lit, which was to announce to the outside world that there was an owner in the house. And when standing in front of the glass window and looking out, you can also see people in the nearby apartment building, and they are also nervously looking at the situation outside.

When the time came to nine o'clock, the sound of rustling came from the neighborhood, and under the dim light unique to Santo Domingo, you could see vehicles, motorcycles, people, and even drones in the sky, and small planes lit up with yellow light, photographing the situation in the two areas of Santo Domingo and Heywood.

Lin Wen's home, Jack was reaching out against the glass at this time, looking down with his head down, he looked at it for a while, raised his head and looked at Lin Wen and said:

"Hey, Lin Wen, the guys from the Sixth Street Gang have come out, let me see... Fuck, they're a lot of them. Didn't you say that 500 people beat 500 people? This looks like more than a thousand. ”

Jack said to Lin Wen, who was cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen hall, but it was Lin Wen who collected the dishes, but in fact there was an automatic dishwasher, after all, it was 2077, and even if Santo Domingue was poor, some self-help things were still used...

Like a better place, especially a high-end residential area like Westbrook, where every household is all electronic and cooking? Just click on it!

David wanted to see it too, but when he saw Lucy enter his room, he ran in with him, and was now awkwardly packing up his things.

Lucy was sitting in the swivel chair, holding the chair with both hands, and she was silently watching David as he was packing up.

The young man had his back to him and groped on the bed.

But seriously, Lucy wasn't really interested in David's little darling.

As for Mewtwo in that regard... It is normal for teenagers who are in the middle of adolescence to look at it.

"I said... You're not going to be that or what, are you? ”

But looking at David's cramped appearance of packing his things, Lucy still felt amused.

The ruthless character who was killed by David was more than two hands, and I didn't see him so nervous when he was fighting, but now... He is like a teenager who was suddenly broken into the room by his parents during his adolescence, and then hurriedly hid small yellow books and prohibited items.

"What?" David put away a violent and astringent Mewtwo, and he... He occasionally looks at the choking ones, but he just looks! He doesn't have that kind of preference!

But this kind of thing is obviously not clear to explain, so when David hid this Mewtwo, he even used Sianweistein, for fear that Lucy would see the cover of the package.

Mann: What the are you doing with Sannweistein?

"Tell my sister, are you still a chick?" Lucy asked, raising an eyebrow.

David was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly, and retorted loudly; "How is that possible? I'm already an adult, how could I be, could be..."

"Tsk, I really didn't guess wrong about this reaction."

"You, you!"

"Damn, it's time to fight!"

Outside, Jack's shout caught the attention of Lucy and David, and after glancing at each other, they both got up and walked out.

David breathed a sigh of relief, if this topic was to be discussed further, then he would really break the defense.

In the living room, Jack is looking down with his big face against the glass window.

"Didn't you say it started at ten o'clock? Fifteen minutes to go, it's ten o'clock! ”

Jack exclaimed.

David also looked in, and saw a conflict breaking out in a street not far away, but because it was a little far away, David couldn't see it very clearly.

But fortunately, Victor replaced him with a prosthetic eye, so David used the function of his prosthetic eye at this moment, but he could clearly see the current situation in the distance.

"Wait, those guys don't seem to be from the Valentino gang?" Jack spoke.

"It's... Jack, they seem to be from the Animal Gang. David said in surprise, he had dealt with the people of the Animal Gang, this kind of muscular and abnormally large guy, most of the people of the Animal Gang did not run!

"Animal Gang? How did they come here? He also got into a fight with the Six Street Gang. Jack wondered.

"Wait, they're not here to fish in troubled waters, are they?" Jack reacted suddenly, clapped his hands hard, and he continued: "Heywood is guarded by the Valentino gang, there are many of them, and they are united, so they don't dare to go to Heywood." ”

"You mean, the Six Street Gang is protecting us right now?" David asked.

"Protection? I'm thinking a little too much. Lucy put her arm on David's shoulder, leaned against him and said lazily:

"In the eyes of the Six Street Gang, this street, and the people on it, are nothing more than their assets, so they are only protecting their assets from infringement now."

David was silent.

Assets...

He felt that Lucy was right, that the Six Streets Gang graffiti was all over the streets of Santo Domingo, and that this area really belonged to the Six Streets Gang.

"It's broken, there's someone over there, David, look at the road over there, who's coming?" Jack reached out and patted David on the shoulder, motioning for David to see who it was.

His prosthetic eye is not as advanced as David's, and he can only vaguely see a general idea, after all... Jack didn't have any money in his pocket, and although Mrs. Wells had a bar in Heywood, the Wells family wasn't wealthy, and Jack wouldn't go to Mrs. Wells to ask for money.

So Jack still uses the old prosthetic eye.

"It's the Vortex gang of lunatics." David looked over there, there were many large cars driving on the road, and in the oncoming window, there was a man with a missing face, the whole face was made up of machinery, and the hollow face emitted a terrifying and dangerous red light.

He was laughing madly as he drove the car, and behind the car were a group of Vortex madmen.

"The Vortex Gang is here, too, the scavengers are going to come anyway, and I say, Santo Domingue is really not safe tonight." Jack said, hugging his chest.

As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Wen, and it turned out that Lin Wen and Gloria were sitting side by side on the sofa, watching Stanley's late-night news show.

At this moment, a doctor who called for the protection of birds is being booed, and some people are throwing things on the stage.

"Have you forgotten about bird flu? Look down here, Doctor, all of you here, all of you have friends and family who died in that plague, but you want us to protect the birds now? Is it engine oil that flows through your body? How can you say such cold words? ”

"No, Stanley, I didn't mean that, you listen to me, that epidemic really has nothing to do with birds, and exterminating birds like this will only cause more damage to the ecology of our survival, believe me, I investigated, that epidemic..."

"Shut up!" Stanley stepped on the table, pointed to the doctor's nose, and waved his arm, "You really turn a blind eye to this, right, doctor?" Because you don't have any family to die in that plague! ”

"It's not the same thing at all!" The doctor's name is Qu Dao.

"There's a fight outside, how can they still watch the news in peace..."Jack smashed his mouth, and the desire to share disappeared all at once.

"The people of the Six Street Gang are starting to retreat, the Vortex Gang and the Animal Gang are crazy, and this street is going to suffer." Lowering her eyes, Lucy said affirmatively.

"Of course, the people of the Six Streets Gang are different from the people of the Valentino Gang, for the sake of their families, the Valentino Gang can fight demons, but what about the people of the Six Streets Gang?" Jack listened to Lucy's words and said proudly.

He was also a member of the Valentino gang, but even now that he has left the gang, Jack introduces himself by saying, "I am the son of Heywood, a member of the Valentino gang, with legendary blood in my body, the future legend of Night City!" ”

Well, these are all from his own mouth.

"Haywood's side must have been fighting by now, right?" David looked at Jack and spoke.

"Probably, but I can't say for sure." Jack said.

Time passed little by little, and the three of David didn't move a step, just looking at the situation below.

As Lucy said, the people of the Six Streets Gang began to retreat, and after losing dozens of corpses, the people of the Six Streets Gang withdrew from the block and began to defend other places in groups, and the place abandoned by the Six Streets Gang naturally became a paradise for the Animal Gang and the Vortex Gang.

It was as if they had made a deal, and when they met, two gangs of different beliefs did not fight, but instead communicated well and began to raid the neighborhood.

The iron door of the store was smashed by a bazooka, the door of the convenience store was smashed, and the guys broke in.

"Why haven't the police come yet? It's been half an hour, and it's impossible for the police not to hear from them. David looked at this scene and said very unhappily.

He wants to get out... If he wanted to do something, he had lived on this street for a while, and every day when David went to school, he would go to that convenience store to buy some food, and at that store, David also had a few words with the chubby whitebeard boss.

Is it familiar?

Not.

But... There is still some friendship.

David is a very emotional guy, if it weren't for Lin Wen and Mann both warning him to take away his sense of justice, then he might have run away by now.

He is no longer the defenseless boy he once was, now he is a high-level prosthetic, although he has not yet installed weapon implants like Mann, but with just his strength and guns, David can easily kill the most vicious gangsters and mercenaries.

The bodyguard of the fat Jesus DeShaun is the severed head of David.

"Police? Then you'll have to wait for them to get to the morning, they won't come until morning. Jack sneered and said, "If this happened in Westbrooks, the police would have arrived in ten minutes, but this is Saint-Domingo, an abandoned industrial area, understand, David?" Whether it's Heywood, or Santo Domingo, in the eyes of those dogs, the more people who die, the better. ”

"Anyway, there is no shortage of people in Night City, and countless people enter Night City every day."

David was silent.

The three of them stood quietly by the window, watching the gang clean up a street.

"Hey, are those guys coming to us now?" Jack said suddenly.

David nodded.

There are a couple of Vortex madmen coming this way, and it seems... Are you planning to go upstairs?

David clenched his fists, and the discomfort became more and more intense.

"Be honest, David, don't bother with things you shouldn't be doing."

But at this moment, Lin Wen, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, spoke.

David turned around and saw Lin Wen's back and his mother's worried eyes.

Gloria looked at David worriedly, and shook her head slightly at David.

Jack wanted to say something, but in the end, he just silently stretched out his big hand and patted David on the shoulder.

Lucy stood there looking at David's back and sighed secretly, during the time she spent with David, Lucy became familiar with David's personality.

David, just a little ghost who doesn't know how to reject people, is a very affectionate little ghost...

Every morning when he came to David, when he went out, David would say hello to his neighbors, and he had a good relationship with the old John Sun family next door.

Therefore, Lucy knew very well that if those madmen of the Vortex Gang really came to this level, and then wanted to hurt the old Johnson family, David would definitely not be able to sit still.

He's going to make a move.

And Gloria and Lin Wen naturally knew this.

This is also the reason why Lin Wen suddenly opened his mouth to warn David.

Time passed little by little, and by this moment, the sound of gunshots could be heard downstairs, and the laughter of madmen, and the wails and cries of people for help.

David finally couldn't help it, he walked behind Lin Wen and said, "I didn't want to save everyone, I knew I couldn't do it, but Lin Wen, the people in this building, the people in this apartment, can't I save them?" I want to help them. ”

"Do you know what rules are?" Lin Wen said with his back to David.

"If you kill the people of the Vortex Gang, it will only lead to greater disasters, David, this area is all from the Six Street Gang, if you make a move, what will the people of the Six Street Gang think of you then? You think they'll appreciate you? No, they just think you're a threat. ”

"Whether it's the Vortex Gang or the Animal Gang, of course I believe you have the power to kill them, but how many can you kill? Can you kill them all? Do you know how many of them there are? And have you ever thought about it? What if the gangsters come to take revenge after you're leaving here? Or are you going to tie it to this neighborhood? ”

Lin Wen turned around and looked at David: "Don't be so naïve, David, there are many things in this world that you can't help yourself." ”

The world is terrible.

Lin Wen came all the way and saw with his own eyes, the world was really rotten.

Rogge said he would make a move, but why did he do it?

Just because I've had a few encounters with those people, and then I'm going to make a move?

If that's the case, then isn't there too much Lin Wen wants to do?

There are more people in need of help in this world, people are dying every day, how many people are dying in this building, isn't the world still running?

In Night City, who cares about a few poor ghosts dying?

But David looked at Lin Wen, and the dead child was not angry, but said calmly:

"It's really strange that you always tell me this, Lin Wen, you are obviously so powerful, but you always hide yourself."

"Well, I don't want to know why you did that, but do you remember? I told you half a year ago that I became strong just to be able to live as I wanted, and I wanted to live freely. And I'm stronger now, but why can't I do what I want to do? ”

"Old John Sun gave me dinner, and you ate his cake, have you forgotten? Can you really watch him die at the hands of those Vortex Gang? ”

Lin Wen just wanted to open his mouth, of course he would not let old John Sun die, because Lin Wen thought that the old man was very interesting, and he dared to scold when Rogge came in the morning.

The relationship is good, familiar people, Lin Wen is still willing to protect.

But Lin Wen couldn't explain it yet, so David said seriously:

"Lin Wen, I think, this world is not as bad as you think, you always look at everything too badly, but it is not that bad."

Lin Wen was suddenly stunned, his pupils constricted...

The world isn't as bad as you think...

David's words made Lin Wen suddenly think of someone.

An old man who has been dead for decades...

(I would like to be a fire, I would be a rope, I would be burned to ashes, I would be broken in two...) ）

(Dead child, this world is not as bad as you think, you always say that good people are dead, but there are still good people, Lao Tzu, am I not a good person?) ）

Looking at David, a shadow seemed to appear in front of Lin Wen's eyes, he was standing next to David, wearing a police uniform, a felt hat on his head, and a short gun pinned to his waist, shrugging his shoulders with a smile on his face, but Lin Wen couldn't see his face clearly.

"Open the door, old man, I know you're here, weren't you still looking at me just now!"

Suddenly, there was a loud laugh outside the door.

It came from the hallway, and the voice was hoarse, like the sound of rubbing and squeezing out of a throat.

David was startled, he looked at the silent Lin Wen and turned around suddenly.

Gloria reached out to grab David, but David was gone.

"This—" Jack looked at the vanished David and immediately knew what was going on.

David ran out with San Westein...

On the side, Lucy had already walked to the door.

"What, Lin Wen, I'll help you see David, don't worry, I will persuade him well." Jack coughed, then ran away.

Lin Wen silently looked ahead, "..."

"You... What's wrong? Gloria looked at Lin Wen, it was the first time she had seen Lin Wen look like that.

It seems to be sad, but... A little relieved and moved, Lin Wen just looked at David's eyes, which made Gloria a little panicked when he arrived, which was also the reason why Gloria failed to stop David in the first place.

This is also the first time Gloria has seen Lin Wen look like this...

"At least I didn't lose."

"Rogge fucking guessed wrong, it's not my hand, it's your son's hand!"

"I didn't lose, I didn't lose anyway."

Lin Wen suddenly scolded and said.

He also repeated many times, "Yes, I didn't lose. I'm not a nosyman, and Rogge thinks she knows me well? ”

"She knows what a!"

Lin Wen took out a cigarette, and Gloria silently accompanied Lin Wen.

Lin Wen lit a cigarette, put it on his lips, and after half a sound, he reached out and clasped his head hard, Lin Wen couldn't sit still.

A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and Lin Wen finally made a phone call.

Well, grass you fucking old hairy son ... You've been fucking dead for almost forty years, why are you still pestering me?

I've already burned down a city for you!

What else do you want from me?

Do you really want Lao Tzu to inherit your will and become a great benevolent person?

I'm not that idle!

I just want to live my life...

I...

Okay, okay... Who makes Lao Tzu owe you?

You just pester Lao Tzu for the rest of your life, Lao Maozi!

Lifetime...

"Hey, Lin Wen, what's wrong?"

"Mann, call all your men, and now come to Santo Domingo, at my house."

Lin Wen closed his eyes.

"There's something you need to do..."

——————

About the show about Stanley and the Doctor, the conversation is terrifying!

Disease, death, bird flu, the Night City is breaking the law by selling poultry meat... But in Taipingzhou, which is outside the jurisdiction of Night City, you can eat chicken, so the so-called flu...

I didn't write this scribble, it was the news that appeared in the elevator in the game, and Stanley incited the public to prevent the doctor from speaking.

Guys, Stanley is a big company behind it...

PS: JD lost and didn't want to update... After all, I'm an old LOL game fan, but thinking about being in Sanjiang now, let's be honest...
