Chapter Eighty-Seven: Lucy
The gray hallway was filled with a foul rancid smell, garbage bags were piled up haphazardly, flies were buzzing, and the incandescent tubes overhead glowed warmly.
Homeless homeless people sit in the corridors like decaying dead wood, and there is no hope for life on their faces.
The electronic door of an apartment slowly opened, and David, dressed in a Arasaka Academy uniform, walked out of the house with an impatient expression, and the voice of his mother Gloria was heard behind him:
"Remember to come back early in the evening, even if you have a party with Mr. Lin Mo, don't play too late!"
"Good, good." David responded perfunctorily and walked down the corridor, ignoring the gangsters and vagrants lying on either side of the corridor.
However, shortly after he walked out the door, a message suddenly reached his chat channel.
[Lin Mo: I'm waiting for you in the parking lot below your house, remember to come over and go to school together]
David's eyes widened, and he looked at this message with a stunned expression, only to feel a little caught off guard.
"What's the matter with this guy, why did he suddenly come to my house?"
David muttered dissatisfied, but his body still turned honestly and walked to the elevator and pressed the button of the underground parking lot.
Soon, he saw Lin Mo sitting on the cover of the sports car in the spacious underground parking lot.
The young man's movements are very frivolous and casual, and with the luxurious sports car with streamlined beauty behind him, it is quite a kind of unruly rich child.
"Young, I don't see you for a day, like every other autumn, David." Lin Mo also saw David coming over, and joked with a smile.
"What are you doing here, and how do you know about my family
Lin Mo smiled, turned around and opened the car door, and said without looking back:
"Have you forgotten? You just handed me your mother's phone number a few days ago, and I asked casually. ”
"If I had known, I wouldn't have told you!" David grunted disapprietly.
At that time, Lin Mo suddenly asked her mother what her phone number was, saying that she wanted to ask about the doctor's profession in the Night City Medical Center.
As a result, this old yin bi made a small report to his mother in the blink of an eye, causing him to be scolded by his mother for no reason, and David still can't forget that incident.
"Get in the car." Lin Mo smiled and beckoned.
David also sat in the passenger seat unceremoniously.
As the saying goes, there are four irons between men, and they need to go through four things, and the two have gone through ups and downs together in the bar in the past, and their relationship has improved a lot.
At the very least, David will no longer refuse Lin Mo's kindness for various reasons.
Shi Zhongjian drove on the road, and the two continued to chat nonsense one by one, occasionally mixed with a few words of mutual scolding that were not strong in attack.
Like this, acquaintances complain about each other, and the content of the small talk is basically some non-nutritious topics, such as: "The latest Black Mewtwo will definitely make you scared to pee your pants", "What! It looks like you've already peed your pants, and you're so skilled, I really didn't expect it, David. ”
There is no nutrition, but it can get through the rush time.
After chatting all the way, the two finally came to the company square in the city center.
After parking the car, the two walked up to the top floor of the roundabout, two graceful and light holographic goldfish seemed to float in mid-air as if they didn't know day and night, and the greenery in the roundabout area seemed to make the air in this area a lot fresher.
The ring road is crowded with people, and the company employees in their suits are hurrying down the road, and occasionally some monks can be seen sitting quietly on the green grass, meditating at the beginning of the morning.
While chatting, the two were about to walk towards the academy, but halfway through, they saw a touch of white and silver hair standing out in the crowd.
The white streamer is ethereal and conspicuous, and there are many people who are dressed differently, dyed their hair in colorful colors and have a hairstyle that can be called Kill Matt along the way, but this solid and clear hair color can catch people's eyes more.
It was the hacker woman who had a few encounters with Lin Mo.
Alas, I saw her again...... Lin Mo was quite helpless in his heart.
To be honest, like this kind of hacker who steals other people's chips at every turn and tries to hack his processor, Lin Mo's attitude cannot be said to be disgusted, but he is also respectful.
"I said, can you not look at each other so explicitly, you little red old man!"
Turning his head, Lin Mo happened to see David also looking directly at the love shadow, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and pushed David with his elbow.
"Hey, do you dare to say that you didn't watch it just now?" Not to be outdone, David replied.
"That girl used to want to steal my chip." Lin Mo said.
"And this?"
The noise between the two attracted the woman's attention, and she turned her head to look at the two men who were moving their hands and feet, wearing the uniform of Arasaka Academy.
Silently, the woman took a step and walked towards the place where the two of them were.
The two teenagers who were arguing also noticed that the woman was walking this way, but Lin Mo was not afraid at all.
Compared with Lin Mo's frankness, David seemed a little flustered, and when he saw the woman slowly walking towards this side, he lowered his gaze for a while.
Tsk, little virgin... Lin Mo observed David's demeanor amusefully.
When the woman walked in front of her, Lin Mo bowed in a friendly manner and greeted kindly:
"I didn't expect to see you here......"
In the middle of his words, the young man's gaze suddenly cooled slightly.
"This is really a narrow road!"
He has never had any good intentions towards the enemy, and even if the woman in front of him is beautiful, it does not affect the bad feelings that the other party brought him when they met him for the first time.
Stealing the chip is a trivial matter, but if the secret about the simulator in the chip is exposed, Lin Mo is afraid that he will commit suicide.
The most annoying thing is that the other party bothers herself again and again, as if he owes her money.
The girl ignored Lin Mo's cold and hard expression, reached out and took out a ticket volume, handed it to Lin Mo, and said in a cold tone:
"Give it back to you."
The picture on the ticket is the moon travel scroll that Lin Mo gave her that day.
Lin Mo frowned slightly, took the wrinkled ticket, and couldn't help but look at it.
Judging from the traces on the ticket that can be called the war-damaged version of Syria, it can basically be concluded that this travel ticket was rubbed in his hand after it was taken away.
Puzzled, he asked:
"What's going on? Is this ticket a fake? ”
No, it's something produced by a simulator, so it's not a fake!
Is it expired?
Otherwise, why would this woman give it back to herself?
Faced with Lin Mo's doubts, the woman smoked a cigarette, leaned on the glass guardrail, and looked at Lin Mo with a cold gaze.
"I don't know how you knew I wanted this, but I'm not there enough to need handouts to make my dreams come true!"
Lin Mo looked at her face quietly, the woman's hair was bright white under the sunlight, a bunch of gradient colored hair fell down from the left cheek, her eyes were as noble as snow, her face was between charming and mature, and the clothes on her body were also common tights for hackers, and she was wearing a shawl.
Suddenly, the young man seemed to understand the other party's thoughts.
In a sense, he is trampling on the other party's dreams.
Wandering in a ghost place like Night City, no matter what the goal, people's dream is to take a trip to the moon, and this dream is likely to be the goal that the other party is fighting for, and even becoming an obsession.
But what he did at that time, he casually handed a moon travel scroll to the other party, like a rich man's pity and charity to a beggar.
Some people may regard it as a gift from heaven and the rich as a dreamer; But some people will also see it as an insult and despise this charity.
It was clear that the woman in front of her belonged to the latter.
"It seems that I didn't think it through, and if you don't like it, I'm here to apologize to you." Lin Mo sincerely apologized.
"It's presumptuous to say that, but we've met a few times, what's your name?"
"Lucy."
