Chapter 254: Old Friend
This is a tall and athletic woman, with a good appearance, and she is holding a cigarette at this time.
Seeing a vehicle coming, her face also changed.
Bai Ye even saw her appearance clearly through the light.
The leader of the "Black Blood Gang", Qiao Wei!
What's going on!
Bai Ye was shocked in his heart, could it be that Blackwater Town had evolved to this extent, being able to read the memories in his heart and concretize it?
If that's the case, it's a little scary!
However, Qiao Wei in front of her didn't look like a weird servant with the numbness and sluggishness. When Bai Ye's car drove over, she also saw Bai Ye's face clearly, and waved her hand in shock and disbelief to stop Bai Ye.
Bai Ye was thinking in his heart.
Do you want to stop?
This can be a trap. This place in Blackwater Town is very weird, maybe some new tricks have been developed here, and you want to harm yourself.
Of course, it is also possible that Qiao Wei and the members of the Black Blood Gang discovered this town when they fled from Hongcheng and moved in temporarily. The meeting between the two was nothing more than a coincidence.
Which one exactly?
White Night decided to test it.
If Qiao Wei has a problem, she will leave immediately. Blackwater couldn't afford to chase after him on his own long legs.
If that's okay, that's no better. Qiao Wei and the others were still able to retain a certain degree of trust in the white night, and they could also take a good rest to facilitate their next actions.
Bai Ye slowly stopped the car. It didn't stop directly on the side of the road, but in the middle of the road.
Then he opened the door and leaned against the car.
"Jovi?"
He said tentatively.
"White Nights! It's really you! I thought you left Hongcheng with Ilsa, what's going on? ”
Qiao Wei asked in surprise and confusion.
She can say such things, in fact, Bai Ye's heart is already fifty percent sure that it is herself, at least her mind has not been taken away. The memory is completely normal, and he can say his name, as well as Ilsa, which proves that Qiao Wei in front of him is at least sane.
Bai Ye was not careless, but said vaguely: "Something happened, I hid near Hongcheng, and I only ran out now." ”
"How's the war going on in Hongcheng? Alas, don't ask if it's the General Services Department that won, these bastards ......"
Qiao Wei said in a hurry, and suddenly remembered something: "Why are you still stunned, come in quickly!" ”
"Ilsa and quite a few of our gang members are inside."
Bai Ye was taken aback when he heard this.
Ilsa is also in it?
Countless thoughts suddenly flashed in Bai Ye's heart.
How could Ilsa be in Blackwater too? She should have known that something wasn't quite right with this place.
And with the ability of the Su family, wouldn't there be anyone to help her escape from Hongcheng?
After thinking about it for a while. White Night decided to take the plunge and take a look at Blackwater.
Although his strength has weakened at this time, he can still escape.
Bai Ye looked at Qiao Wei and couldn't see anything wrong for the time being. He turned to put his vehicle in his inventory, followed in Jovi's footsteps, and walked towards Blackwater.
Strangely, this time near Blackwater, there is no such eerie feeling here.
Bai Ye wondered in his heart, was his perception ability weakened, or was it really different here because of the presence of living people?
He didn't speculate, but tested Qiao Wei: "Why did you come here?" What happened? ”
Qiao Wei had no intention of concealing it: "Before the war, we heard that Hongcheng was going to fight. At that time, we tried to escape, but the gate was already blocked, and we couldn't get out for a while. ”
"David's boy had a good suggestion: leave through the other door. Not to mention, there are indeed very few people who escape through this gate. ”
"But the road was deserted, and we fled in a hurry, bringing few supplies. When they drove nearby, they were running out of ammunition. From the satellite map, there are at least a few hundred kilometers left to get to the next town. ”
"Who would have thought that there would be such a small town on the side of the road!"
Qiao Wei said strangely: "I can't find it on the satellite map, I really don't know what's going on." ”
Her bewildered appearance did not seem to be a fake, and what she said was perfectly reasonable. Bai Ye just listened, and didn't find any flaws for the time being.
"Have you heard of this place?" Qiao Wei tilted her head and looked at the white night.
"How can I know something that you don't know about the locals?"
Bai Ye shook his head.
Qiao Wei nodded: "Yes." ”
She continued, "And then we're going to recharge here for a while." ”
"The strange thing is that it doesn't look shabby, it doesn't look like it's abandoned. But there was no one inside. ”
"There are some traces of life not so long ago."
"Ran Qiu said that this place is very strange, not right. But there was no better option at the time, so we took a break here. I was about to leave tomorrow morning, but I didn't expect to run into you. ”
"Thankfully, the town is weird, but nothing really weird has happened. I'll leave tomorrow morning, so don't worry too much. ”
Qiao Wei's rhetoric, Bai Ye couldn't find any flaws. He quietly opened the Grim Reaper's Eye and found that there were no red dots on Qiao Wei's body that represented weakness.
Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief. The Qiao Wei in front of him should be real, not a weird creature!
His "Grim Reaper's Eye" has a trait. That is, when facing strange creatures, the weakness of the other party will appear 100%. But if you want to use it for people, you're not sure.
The fact that Qiao Wei did not appear proves that she is definitely not a strange creature.
Relaxed, Bai Ye's body relaxed.
They also walked into the town at this time. It was already dark, and all the street lights in the town were on.
The tavern near the gate was brightly lit. From time to time, there was a commotion inside.
"These bastards are really heartless. The escape made them look like they were out on a spring outing. Qiao Wei said with a look of dissatisfaction.
Bai Ye asked, "What about Ilsa?" How did she get in touch with you? ”
Qiao Wei smiled: "You can ask her yourself!" I didn't say a few words to you, and I can't forget my little girlfriend! ”
Bai Ye didn't care about her jokes, and the two entered the tavern together.
"Look who I brought back!"
Qiao Wei shouted loudly as soon as she entered the door.
"White Night??"
In the tavern, there was a burst of exclamations. Then there was a good laugh: "You escaped too!" That's great! ”
"That's right! Dude thought you couldn't get out! ”
Everyone in the tavern greeted each other, and Bai Ye saw many acquaintances: the janitor Ran Qiu, David, and Qiao Wei's bodyguard.
And a beautiful and quiet figure in the corner, Ilsa!
The heart that hung in the white night was completely relaxed.
Maybe it's because I've been too unlucky during this time and I've encountered too many bad luck. The reunion at this time can be regarded as the compensation given to him by fate.
Say hello to acquaintances. They warmly invited Bai Ye to drink again, but Qiao Wei pushed him away: "You all go far!" Bai Ye didn't want to talk to you big bosses, didn't you see that Ilsa was still waiting! ”
The people of the Black Blood Gang let out a loud noise, and the acquaintance himself stepped aside to speak.
White Night looked at Ilsa.
Ilsa didn't speak, and she didn't have any expression. However, Bai Ye could see relief and joy in her lake-like eyes.
But something is not right.
Ilsa's expression at this time was a little too solemn.
She looked out the window at the white night and out the window. Bai Ye was suddenly invited: "Let's go out and talk?" ”
Ilsa nodded silently, and the two walked slowly out of the tavern.
There was the sound of the Black Blood Gang cheering from behind.
As soon as she went out, Ilsa said, "It's great that you came out alive. ”
Bai Ye has a stomach to say: including what he has been through, and questions about Ilsa, why is she with the Black Blood Gang?
But Ilsa didn't give him that chance.
Ilsa said directly: "Be careful. Something is wrong with the Black Bloods. ”
White Night is shocked!
I was so cautious, but I was still deceived by the people of the Black Blood Gang?
Qiao Wei's performance just now did not have any flaws, it was extremely natural. Could it be all pretended?
"What's going on?" Bai Ye asked with some excitement.
Ilsa whispered, "Don't let them see the flaws." ”
Bai Ye instinctively wanted to turn back, but was stopped by Ilsa: "Don't look back." I dare say that some of them are watching us at this moment! ”
White Night listened to the hustle and bustle in the tavern behind.
If all this was disguised by the Black Blood Gang, it would be too realistic!
"The people of the Black Blood Gang, have been manipulated?" White Night asked.
That's the kind of thing that comes to his mind first. No way, this is Blackwater Town after all, and Bai Ye has lived here for several days. You know exactly what's wrong here.
Ilsa whispered, "No. The vast majority of their behavior is normal. There is no difference from the original. Otherwise, I wouldn't be with them. ”
So, doesn't it seem like a problem in Blackwater?
"What's wrong with that?" White Night asked.
Ilsa explained: "Seriously, I can't tell! ”
Bai Ye was stunned, what does this mean?
Ilsa says they have a problem, but they can't say it, what is the problem?
Ilsa continued: "I'll start from the beginning. ”
"I received the news when the war was about to happen. I could have left early, but I didn't know when you would be back, so I waited two more days in the city. ”
"Two days later, the situation is already very urgent. The war was about to break out, and I knew at that time that I would not be able to leave, so I had to leave Hongcheng. ”
According to the message. The road outside the town is the safest of the bunch. And when I go to the city ahead, there are also the forces of the Su family, who can help me arrange it. ”
"The original plan was like this. However, on the way through Blackwater, I also met the members of the Black Blood Gang, just like you. ”
"With a resting mentality, I stayed after I was sure they were okay."
"Honestly, they're the same people we know. Behavior, habits, and movements have not changed. ”
Hearing this, Bai Ye was even more confused.
What Ilsa means, the people of the Black Blood Gang are still the same people, and there is no change in all aspects, so what's wrong with them?
Could it be that you want to do it to Ilsa and yourself?
But what good is it to do it to them at such a time?
Ilsa spoke, "The only thing that has changed is that the [topic] of the discussion has changed. ”
"Topic?" White Night couldn't help but repeat it.
The people of the Black Blood Gang just discussed different topics, and Ilsa thought that something was wrong with them?
White Night has to wonder if it is the Black Blood Gang or Ilsa who is wrong.
Ilsa seemed to guess the doubts in Bai Ye's heart, and took the initiative to explain: "That's right, it's the topic!" ”
"Do you remember what the Black Blood likes to discuss?"
Bai Ye nodded: "Of course." Fitness and martial arts, these are two of their favorite topics. ”
Needless to say, martial arts. In order to fight, the Black Blood Gang directly opened up a huge arena. In their usual words and deeds, you can also see their love for martial arts.
It was precisely because of this that David quickly integrated into one of them.
And fitness is also a topic that the Black Blood Gang can't avoid.
All the people in their gang are fitness enthusiasts. Basically, each of them has a beautiful muscle. Even David, who was relatively thin at the beginning, quickly developed a body of tendon meat after joining.
Qiao Wei, a woman, is quite fit.
That's enough to say that fitness and martial arts are their favorite topics.
Not only that, when Bai Ye and Qiao Wei chatted, most of what they talked about was actually this topic.
Ilsa then said, "That's right. It turned out that their favorite topic was this. ”
"But I reunited with them this time. I found that they liked one more topic. ”
"It's just talking about things in cyberspace, and it seems like it's a yearning for it."
Bai Ye listened and scratched his head.
yes, that's not like the Blackbloods.
Of course, the Black Blood Gang is not the kind of coarse man who doesn't understand any technology. The equipment used to access the Internet at that time in the white night was still helped by them.
But White Night knows very well that there is only one attitude of the Black Blood Gang towards such things as technology and prosthetics, and that is: they will only understand it when necessary. I don't think of these things as hobbies, or even take the initiative to talk about them.
They are the Black Bloods, not the Voodoo gang of Night City.
Nor are they cyber rovers fed by big corporations.
"Something is wrong...... But only because of this kind of thing. We can't do anything to them, can we? ”
Bai Ye said.
Ilsa nodded, "That's right, that's exactly what I'm worried about. ”
"Good thing you're here."
She said with some rejoicing, "Let's rest here tonight and leave immediately tomorrow morning." ”
"This time I left and parted ways with the Black Bloods. If something happens to them, it's best not to implicate us. ”
"If they're okay and just add a new hobby, it's never too late to get in touch later."
