"Afterlife bar?"

V wiped the sweat from his forehead, and there was something strange about the invitation message sent by Tang Yu.

She was practicing boxing in the boxing ring downstairs of her house, and the neck of the boxing robot in front of her was about to break, and the coach Fred next to her couldn't stop watching.

Charging this amount of money is really cheap V.

It's just that he looked away, but he didn't expect that the iron-handed girl in front of him was the new street boxing champion who was in the limelight.

After receiving Tang Yu's message, V left the ring, picked up the towel hanging on the crossbar, wiped his slightly red face, and told Coach Fred.

"Trouble to change the robot next time, it's really too hard to fight, it's hard to have any repeat customers with your high charges."

After speaking.

V picked up the glass of water and left, leaving Uncle Mediterranean stunned, crying and laughing.

She took the dilapidated public elevator back to her room, cleaned up and prepared to go to the afterlife bar for an appointment.

She is still very positive about the life arranged by the creditor, after all, she is debt-free and light, and she can pay off her debts as soon as possible, so that she can break into her own career.

It didn't take long.

V neatly cleaned himself, changed his clothes, and went straight to his destination, the afterlife bar.

On the road.

She drove a windy sheet metal convertible car, rubbing around the narrow streets, and hung flowers in several places in a few turns.

Rubbing the front of the car is really normal for her, and the car is too long, and the handling is not very good.

V can also see it, anyway, it is the car he won by boxing, and he can scrape it as much as he wants, and he is not distressed at all.

Unlike a certain car that makes her in debt, it has to be kept in the garage, and she will never drive out unless she is forced to do so, and even if she goes out, she must be careful and walk on thin ice, otherwise the debt bill will not be paid off in any year or month.

Soon.

She arrives at the afterlife bar in a sheet metal sports car, and the glittering gold paint quickly attracts the malicious eyes of many people.

V glared at the two gangsters standing on the side of the street, and said viciously: "You two are called Bucky and Loki, right, I remember your names, take care of the car for me, if something goes wrong, watch your heads." ”

After speaking.

V rolls over and gets out of the car, drops the car keys to the two thugs, and walks towards the afterlife bar.

The thug held the key he had just thrown over and looked at V's departing figure with a confused expression.

"Who is this horse? Is it so awesome? ”

"Silver arms, long black hair, is it a famous V who fought boxing a while ago, swept the black boxing market in one day, and even the razor was beaten by her."

", is it so violent, then this car."

"Nonsense, what do you think, you can see the identities of the two of us, just take care of the car honestly."

V walked into the bar and walked down the stairs to the basement bar with green light, where the dim ambient lighting and faint music accentuated the atmosphere of the bar.

It's the first time she's in the afterlife, but she's already heard of the name of 'afterlife'.

Walking to the iron gate, the big doorman stopped her.

The doorman opened the prosthetic eye scan, found that the visitor was a newcomer, and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?" ”

V felt that he was a little inexplicable in what he asked, and replied, "Drinking." ”

The doorman was still blocking the door: "There must be more than just drinking here." ”

V patiently explained that she had made an appointment in the bar, and the other party's name was Tang Yu, and asked the doorman to check it out.

After confirming this, the doorman moved out of the way, and the gate slid open.

V let go of his clenched iron fist, and walked into the bar without following the usual knowledge of the janitor.

When you arrive at the bar, the sound of music immediately surrounds your ears, and the loud rock music is filled with hearty roars.

She heard the origin of this song, it is a song by the martial arts band, a super classic old song.

V looked around, the bar booths and corridors were full of people, bustling, everyone gathered in twos and threes, talking about things.

Some are talking, some are exchanging information, some are communicating confidential, in short, everyone seems to have a story.

Soon.

V found Tang Yu sitting at the bar, but next to him sat a woman in a yellow sweatshirt, with golden wavy hair draped over her side shoulders, looking full of aura.

She walked to the bar, sat down close to Tang Yu's other side, and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

Tang Yu looked sideways when he heard the sound and saw that it was V, so he took the initiative to introduce her: "This is the queen of the afterlife bar - Rogge." ”

Then he introduced V to Rogge: "V, the best mercenary in Night City, is of course also a well-known street boxing champion. ”

After listening to Tang Yu's identity introduction, Rogge looked at V with interest: "Little sister, it seems that you are indeed very different." ”

V didn't know what Rogge was referring to, and said politely: "The queen of the next life is also very different. ”

Rogge smiled and said goodbye: "Since the person you are waiting for has arrived, I won't disturb you chatting, I'll take care of something." ”

"Claire, I've got their drinks."

Claire smiled and replied while mixing a drink, "No problem, the same as last time." ”

After speaking.

Rogge got up and left the bar and walked towards her private box.

Seeing Rogge walking away, V withdrew his gaze, his gaze fell on Tang Yu and asked, "Were you talking about me just now?" Don't put a high hat on me, I can't stand it. ”

Tang Yu did chat with Rogge for a while before V arrived.

Rogge had long wanted to get to know Tang Yu, and when he saw Tang Yu sitting alone at the bar, he took the initiative to say hello.

Tang Yu was very clear about Rogmen, and naturally he didn't feel unfamiliar, and the two of them talked nonsense, and mentioned the matter of V by the way.

Tang Yu knew that Rogge actually wanted to know about Johnny, because he had said about the open-air screen last time.

This is a romance that belongs to Rogge's heart, and being suddenly pointed out by an outsider must have made her a little surprised and curious.

Tang Yu looked at V, who had the same temper as always, and said with a smile: "Your name still needs me to promote, and now who on the street doesn't know that your fists are powerful." ”

V just snorted twice, too lazy to slap him.

Tang Yu asked with concern: "How are you feeling lately, do you still have a headache or see a double vision or something like that?" ”

V shook his head: "It's already much better, maybe the things in my head are settled, so naturally I won't toss around." ”

As long as the blue eyes don't come to find trouble, the sea god in V's mind will not have much influence for the time being.

Tang Yu is still waiting for a suitable time to take it out for her, but he has not found a matching carrier and means for the time being.

V waved his hand and said impatiently: "Don't mention this, what is the matter with me today, don't play tricks on me again." ”

Tang Yu teased: "Yo, I didn't see that my Miss V is quite busy, is this preparing to debut in Night City?" ”

V rolled his eyes at Tang Yu angrily: "If I didn't owe you a debt, maybe I would be able to take a big order, and I would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of my life, and I could make a name for myself." ”

Tang Yu nodded thoughtfully: "Well, it seems that our famous V also dreams of becoming a legend of Night City." ”

V felt his teeth itching, and he couldn't wait to give him a bite on the spot to vent his breath.

Tang Yu smiled calmly: "Don't be angry, just kidding, I also have a big list in hand, I'll know when Jack comes over." ”

V: "You'd better have a big order."

The two sat at the bar and waited for a while, when they noticed the sound of music coming from behind them.

Jack walked to the bar, patted his wide palms and rubbed them, and said with a smile, "What should I have today?" ”

Tang Yu asked him not to just worry about the wine, but to sit down and talk first.

Jack sat on the other side of Tang Yu and took the initiative to greet V.

"Hi, Chica."

"Hi, Jack."

Jack suddenly found that the table between the two of them was empty, and asked curiously, "Haven't you ordered any wine yet?" ”

"In that case, you're welcome."

Claire happened to be empty, so she stepped forward and asked, "Do you want something?" ”

Before Jack could speak, Tang Yu spoke first: "Three glasses of old-fashioned tequila, add some beer and chili." ”

Claire smiled and nodded: "Three cups of 'Johnny Silver Hand', here it is." ”

Jack's words were blocked in his mouth, he looked at Tang Yu with an uncomfortable expression, and asked, "Brother, don't rob me of my lines, I finally had the opportunity to show off, but now it's all gone." ”

V looked at them as if they were very knowledgeable, and inexplicably connected the wine with Johnny's silver hand, and asked curiously, "What kind of black words are you talking about?" ”

Jack explained with a smile: "The old rule of 'afterlife', the name of the wine is the name of the regulars here, and everyone who comes here to drink knows it. ”

V somewhat understood: "So Johnny Silverhand used to come here to drink a lot, did he leave the recipe for this glass of wine?" ”

Claire took her glass and replied, "That's right, 'Afterlife' has been open for a long time, so long that I can't remember the specific year, anyway, you can pack a ticket, Johnny Silver Hand did sit in front of this bar and drink." ”

Tang Yu thought to himself, not only did he drink wine, but he also shot on the stage.

V thinks it's quite interesting, the background of the afterlife bar is not available in other places, which is also her charm.

"So how do you have a glass of wine of your own?"

Jack hurriedly raised his hand to stop Claire, and took the initiative to answer: "Chica, I can answer this question, you have to die first, and you have to die a particularly wonderful death, it is better to hang up halfway, the whole city is talking about your story, just like a legend." ”

Jack was excited as he spoke, and sighed, "Aha, I want to get myself a set." ”

V chimed in, "That's right, if you can make a name for yourself in Night City, even if you die." ”

Jack became interested and asked Claire: "My name is Jack Wells, how about keeping a copy of my recipe, believe me, I have received a big order now, and I will soon be famous in Night City." ”

Claire said yes.

Without hesitation, Jack blurted out: "A vodka with ice, lime juice, ginger beer." ”

"Oh, the most important thing. A little more love. ”

V directly laughed out loud and shouted: "I want it too, I want to keep a glass of wine, my name is V"

Tang Yu saw these two guys planting flags again, so he picked up his wine glass and interrupted: "Okay, okay, at least you have to live as a legend first." ”

Claire smiled: "That's true, when you become a legend, it's not too late to leave your name." ”

V suddenly became bored: "Okay, okay, who made me owe you a debt." ”

Jack Lang smiled and raised his glass: "Do one?" ”

Tang Yu returned to this familiar scene again, and suddenly felt a little trance, Jack and V beside him were still alive, looking forward to breaking into a new world in Night City.

He also raised his glass and drank.

"Respectfully, 'do one'."

The three of them drank the liquor in their glasses.

V took a sip of the wine, and suddenly felt a fire in his abdomen, and he was very happy.

"Johnny's Silver Hand, this recipe is really simple and enjoyable."

When she saw Tang Yu and Jack leaving the bar, she quickly put down her glass, said goodbye to Claire, and got up to follow.

The three of them went to a hidden box and began to discuss the content of the operation.

The operation is not complicated, and the destination is a Arasaka traffic station on the outskirts of the city.

The three of them only need to squat in the pre-selected position, squat and ambush, and wait for the target team to appear to attack the stronghold, and a praying mantis cicada catcher yellow finch will follow.

V was a little confused after hearing this: "That's it? ”

This time the plan looks much simpler than the last time, neither complicated nor roundabout.

Tang Yu nodded, confirming V's doubts.

Jack was a little strange: "Who is full of food and support, to attack the Arasaka company site, Tang, since you have the attack information, why didn't you let the people of the company help, they are unreliable." ”

"That's right, there are ghosts in the company who can't be trusted, and the people who attacked this stronghold may have been instigated by people in the company."

Jack and V both said that the trick played by the company's dogs is really unclear, and the dog-eat-dog scene is probably staged every day.

Tang Yu's main basis for this action is still from Meredith.

According to the information she gave, Tang Yu confirmed which points were used by military science and technology, and which were operated by the forces behind the scenes.

In addition, Meredith also provided some advice for reference, military technology has always wanted to move a transportation stronghold, but because her promotion is imminent, she doesn't want to make any more moths, so she has put it on hold for the time being.

She felt that the force was very likely to make a move, and it was only in the last few days.

Military science and technology have long grasped that there are forces plotting to plant false accusations in order to arouse the hostility of the two giant companies and intensify the smell of gunpowder.

It's just that military science and technology don't care too much about this, and the company doesn't dare to take the initiative to start a war at this time.

If the world war starts again, it will not be so easy for the Arasaka company to regain its hands on Night City.

Night City is located on the New America map, which has more advantages in terms of logistics and firepower.

With Aunt Mei's information assistance, Tang Yu knew what to do next.

So I made an appointment with V and Jack and got ready to get my hands dirty.

The strength of that group of armed forces of unknown origin should not be underestimated, and they dared to take the risk of sneak attack to keep their whole body out of the situation that Arasaka Company continued to strengthen its security.

It not only shows that some of them are doing internal responses, but also shows that they themselves have good strength and can win in the fierce melee confrontation.

Tang Yu is not at ease to simply entrust this matter, once it is done, there will be no second chance to start over.

The three of them communicated the details of the operation of the entire mission.

In order to avoid startling the snake, Tang Yu will apply the identity of Arasaka Company to Jack and V, and disguise them as Arasaka security personnel who temporarily increase their defense.

This does not cause anyone to be alarmed, and recently various bases on the outskirts of Arasaka Castle have been sending additional personnel to prevent accidents, and it is normal to send new personnel to strengthen the defense.

Once they have entered the stronghold, they can wait for the enemy attack with peace of mind.

And Tang Yu will squat farther away and do a good job of remote support.

The three of them made a plan, and began to prepare, going home to copy the guy and preparing to set off.

Today is gone, and there is work to finish a year ago, and it is a bit busy.
