Chapter 488: Value

"Will you regret it, what difference does it make for someone like me who has no way out?"

At the bottom of the abandoned building, the lark leaned weakly against the wall, and the whole person sat on the muddy ground as if collapsed, looking up at the gray sky and muttering to himself.

Winter has arrived, and the temperature in the city at night is low, and although it has not yet reached the level of snow, the cold wind of the evening wind seems to seep out the soul.

"You should tell him this sentence to his face, and now I am telling this because I want to make myself feel better?" Lin Mo leaned against the wall next to him with his hands on his chest, his movements were leisurely.

In the face of Li De's last advice, the red-haired lady didn't say anything in the end, just showed that I was already very tired, begged Lin Mo to go out with her to take a breath, and then chatted again.

Lin Mo didn't have any opinion on this, and he wasn't worried that Li De would take the opportunity to escape when the two left, after all, under the role of Sianweistan, staying in the room was actually no different from staying downstairs.

The distance between the two places will only become a negligible "error" under his speed.

The lark shook his head and whispered:

"He's a very stubborn person, talking too much will only make each other feel bad, I did something very sorry for him in the past, and it's not good to embarrass him like this anymore."

"The grievances and grievances between the two of you seem to be as thick as a book, let's get to the bottom of it, what is the relationship between the two of you?" Lin Mo asked a little curiously.

Things have developed to this point, and he also began to suspect that this matter is likely to be related to the game dLc, otherwise it would not involve the new American President Miles and Spider Murphy.

As for whether lark and Li De will be the key figures in dLc, he is not very sure, but if he knows more about the situation of the two, he will not waste too much time.

"He's my senior in the CIA, you can take him as my teacher, I used to be an unorganized cyber hacker, I committed a crime and was almost hunted down by the cyber watchdogs, he brought me into the CIA to clear my name, and then helped me become a member of the CIA." The lark replied without hesitation.

Now that she and Li De are both prisoners of this boy, she doesn't have Li De's belief in sacrificing her life for the country at any time, and in the face of Lin Mo's inquiry, she can only know everything.

"And then, you did something to stab him in the back, so you're sorry for him?" Lin Mo asked funny.

The lark's eyes diverged and he said:

"Well, it was at the end of the Unification War 7 years ago, Arasaka and Shinmi reached a reconciliation, exchanged chips and hostages with each other, and by the way, some 'own people' were offered out as a gift of peace, Li De was the head of the intelligence agency of Night City at that time, he was such a gift, and I was the one who gave this gift."

"I see, it's really a political drama that makes sense..."Lin Mo was surprised:

"But I look at that big black man, he doesn't seem to mind this matter very much, Xinmei and you did this kind of thing, he is actually willing to be Xinmei's dog, and he still cares about your safety."

Thinking about what Li De had done, Lin Mo was both emotional and regretful for this big black man.

He's also one of the best agents of the CIA.,There's absolutely no doubt about his ability.,This kind of talent can eat anywhere.,But he's just a foolish person like Goro Takemura.。

However, Goro Takemura is loyal to the Arasaka family, while Li De is loyal to the new American system, and listening to the tone of his conversation, he is not interested in the new American President Miles.

The lark sighed:

"He is such a person, he would rather suffer himself than let others suffer, and he is loyal to the system, and he is not only worried about my personal safety, but also afraid that I will harm the interests of Xinmei."

"So, how are you going to convince me to keep him alive and do my best to save him?" Lin Mo changed his words and changed the topic to the purpose of the lark.

The lark was slightly stunned, pursed his mouth and said, "You can see it..."

"Isn't your evaluation and remarks about him just to arouse my pity for him? Let's be honest, it doesn't matter to me whether he is dead or alive, what matters is how much he is worth to me, and how much you are worth to me. Lin Mo smiled calmly, his smile was a little fake, and he couldn't see any emotion.

"I have already said what I should say just now, as for what Miles and Spider Murphy have agreed on, and what is the purpose of the two, I really don't know." The lark lowered its head and gritted its teeth, scouring as much as it could for the conditions that could be given.

She really didn't want Li De to die like this, but the conditions she could provide now were only Miles' intelligence and her own hacking ability.

For the sake of the Neural Matrix, she can even give herself away as a bargaining chip for exchange... But now that the things that need to be exchanged are more than Li De's life, she really doesn't know how to convince Lin Mo.

"Then let me change the subject, what do you think of Li De's interpersonal relationship in the CIA? And what about in the White House? Lin Mo asked.

The lark was slightly stunned, thought for a while and replied:

"He is a good man, because of his outstanding ability and his own set of principles, so many people in the bureau trust him, and he has also brought newcomers, and he is an old-timer of many members, although he has been staying in Night City for the past 7 years and has not gone out, but his deeds are still being praised by many people."

"If he is so capable, why is he still working as a field agent? After so many years of hard work, he should have sat in the office, not 'wandered' outside. Lin Mo asked.

"Who knows, after all, things in the political arena can't be climbed up with just hard work and ability." The lark shrugged.

"And is there any stain on his records in the CIA?" Lin Mo asked again.

"Stain?" The lark seemed to hear a joke and suddenly laughed:

"If you were to ask Miles, I would have replied that she should have stepped down a long time ago, but you said Lee... He's a saint, have you ever seen someone who doesn't choose to run away in times of crisis, but tries to save his own people as much as possible? ”

"Li De is such a person, when the unification war ended, he had many opportunities to escape, but in the end, in order to rescue the remaining agents, he chose to hold on to the end, until he was given as a gift, and now he is lucky to be alive... It still doesn't have a long memory. ”

Lin Mo hugged his chest and nodded, and his smile began to become a little playful:

"Okay, I think I've thought it through, and he can keep his life for the time being."

The lark's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that Lin Mo would agree to his request so easily.

She didn't seem to say anything... just talked about Li De's situation in the bureau, why did the other party want to keep him alive.

"You mean really?" The lark was a little surprised, and then couldn't help but whisper:

"Don't you regret it halfway, you saw it just now, Li De is absolutely impossible to betray Xinmei like me, if you want to use techniques such as truth vomiting potion and nerve hypnosis to make him spit out information, he will most likely seek suicide halfway."

"I'm not interested in the intelligence inside the CIA, and if he talks to me about this, he might as well tell me more about the president's gossip, not to mention that it's not worth enough for me to spare his life." Lin Mo smiled coldly:

"What I need is something he doesn't realize."

The value of an enemy does not depend solely on whether the opponent can be used for himself.

Since Li De is loyal to Xinmei and has no flaws, then he can use this to improve his future plans.
