Chapter 33: Before the Mission
Fortunately, Sasha grabbed Rebecca in time, reached out and pressed her little hand holding the pistol, and kept reassuring her in her ear.
This made Rebecca reluctantly sit down while muttering something like "I spilled you".
"Alright, introduce yourself, David."
"Ah, yes!" Hearing Shirahoshi's words, David immediately put on an upright posture and said solemnly, "That...... My name is David, David Martinez, and I live in Super Skyscraper H4 in Santo Domingo, and I use a prosthetic body that is San Westein ......"
"Don't talk about it to this point, this fool ......" Lucy suddenly lowered her head and stroked her forehead, and complained a little speechlessly in her heart.
Not only Lucy, but everyone else looked at David with the face of a fool.
How did this kind of person who came up and report his life resume survive in Night City until now?
"Huh? What are you kidding, just like you, can use Snwestein? Rebecca's breath wasn't completely clear.
"It's true!" David also replied with a serious face.
"Wait a minute, Rebecca, don't make a noise yet."
Just then, Mann nudged the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.
"Your name is David Martinez? Who are you Gloria Martinez? ”
"Huh? Do you know my mom? ”
"You're Gloria's son?" Mann said curiously, "Then I believe you have Sanweistan." ”
Dorio had met that Gloria a few times because of his relationship with Mann, and she had a good impression of her, so she teased her.
"Isn't that woman Gloria quite shrewd, how can there be a son like you."
"Don't say that, Dolio." Mann laughed, he hadn't seen such a pure man in Night City in a long time, "This kid has an appetite for me, I like it!" ”
"But if you want to mix well in Night City, you can't look like this, I'll teach you well."
"But now, sit down, boy, we're going to get down to business."
Seeing that everyone was seated, Mann looked at Sasha and nodded at her.
"Send them everything you find."
"Hmm." Sasha's eyes lit up, and the information was being uploaded.
"Lucy, what is this......" David, who had just joined the team, was confused by the information he had sent.
Just two short lines.
At 9:10 a.m. on the 11th, the southernmost part of Night City.
"Didn't Shirahoshi tell you?" Lucy glanced at him and saw that he didn't seem to be looking for something to talk to her, but really didn't know.
"Here's the big order we're going to complete next, to hijack a train."
However, this information is indeed a little too simple, Lucy thought.
Shirahoshi asked everyone's doubts.
"Sasha, is that all there is to it? That's a bit too simplistic, isn't it? ”
"If I had more information, I'd definitely share it with everyone." Sasha spread his hands and said he couldn't do anything about it, "That's what the guy we got back has in his head. ”
"I originally wanted to continue the in-depth search, but who knew that the guy's head was suddenly burned, and judging from the means, it should be their own internal extermination."
"Doesn't that seem more suspicious...... Shirahoshi complained.
With that old-fashioned train and so little information, it's hard not to think about what is being transported there.
"Then that's the route." Sasha sent another document.
The route of the train is now clear, starting from the southernmost part of Night City, crossing the Badlands and finally reaching another adjacent city.
"That place ......," Lucy frowned.
"What's wrong with that place?"
"If I'm not mistaken, there's a war going on in that place, and it's not over yet."
"You mean, the train could be carrying munitions?" Dorio thought of something and asked her.
"It's possible, but I can't guarantee it, and if it's really just arms, there's no need to keep it like this."
"Maybe it's some new secret weapon?"
"Or maybe escorting some high-ranking officer?"
The crowd discussed their conjectures, but in the end it was Mann, who patted the table and said, "Okay, don't guess. All we have to do is stop the train before it reaches its destination! ”
He took his glass and drank it down.
"Good luck to us!"
——————————
"Lucy! Lucy! ”
Lucy, who was walking home after the show, heard a familiar voice behind her.
When I looked back, it was him.
"Is there anything wrong, David?"
"What a coincidence, Lucy, I really didn't expect you to be here, it turns out that the surprise that Big Brother Bai told me was this."
"Well, that's a coincidence."
The two walked side by side in the street, but the atmosphere fell silent.
Lucy chose to break the silence, she said, "Why don't you go and be your Arasaka boy, why are you running to be a mercenary, don't you think your life is long enough?" ”
"I said I wasn't the stuff for that, and now that's what I want." David scratched his head and smiled.
"Oh yes, are you feeling better, you haven't overused Snwestein like you did that day, have you?"
"Of course not, and under the training of Big Brother Bai, I have become more and more proficient."
"Shirahoshi, ......" Lucy pursed her lips, this man was the most mysterious person on the team today.
Her predecessor, Qi Wei, had said that no one should be trusted in Night City.
Although Mann's Lucy is very comfortable, she might as well look for your experiences first.
Only Bai Xing's experience is all blank.
Even if he was as smart as Lucy, he would not have thought that the reason why Shirahoshi experienced a blank in the past was that he had no past in this world at all.
So she asked, "Na, David, how much do you know about your big brother Bai?" ”
"Big Brother Bai? Well, in fact, it doesn't seem to be much, it's just that Big Brother Bai saved me in a car accident before, and then I met him. ”
"Car accident?"
"Yes." David recalls the bad encounter, "My mom and I were on our way home when someone from the Animal Gang attacked a company vehicle and got caught up in it, and that's it. ”
"So you haven't known Shirahoshi for long? You just believe in him like that? ”
Hearing this, David made an expression of "what are you talking about?"
"Lucy and I haven't known each other for long." He said, "Big Brother Bai gives me the same feeling as you, a person who can be completely trusted. ”
"You......" Lucy didn't know what to say, she suddenly stopped, "Okay, I'm home." ”
"Huh? Oh! David was stunned for a second, reacted quickly, and stopped.
"See you next time, Lucy." He watched silently as the girl ascended the stairs step by step.
“……”
Suddenly, the girl's figure emerged from the staircase.
"Why don't you come up and sit down?"
"Huh?! May I? David said with a look of surprise.
"Can't you fall in love?"
Lucy winked at David and turned to go upstairs.
"Wait for me!"
