Night City, District 12, Liu Fatpang Home Cooking Restaurant.

If you want to say what industry is declining the fastest in this era, it must be the mass catering industry.

This is also the trend of the times - in order to reduce the cost of living and improve work efficiency, more and more people are giving up the right to eat and transforming their digestive system into a machine that can maintain body functions with only nutrient solutions.

In addition, under the influence of "Rusty Mist", the average life expectancy of Night Sin City is also decreasing year by year, resulting in the business of this small shop hidden in the old community is not as good as year by year.

From the outside, it was dim and dark, and there were only a few diners, and the only few employees sat bored, exuding a mournful atmosphere.

In the back kitchen, however, it's a different story.

The old man in the chef's hat was busy, but instead of stir-frying, he was holding various high-precision tools, disassembling the Rubik's cube-like instrument in front of him.

"Uncle Luo, how's it going?"

The waiter at the front desk walked in and asked, "It's been two days since this thing was delivered, can you reproduce it?" ”

"How can it be so easy, are you building blocks?"

The old chef replied without raising his head, "At least a week and a half." ”

"So long?"

The waiter pouted, "But Leader Shen's side is urging tightly, won't this be a little ......?"

"I know he's in a hurry, but let him stop yet."

The old chef took off the magnifying glass on his eyes and gave him a bad look, "I don't know how long it will take to develop this kind of precision instrument alone, if you come, it will be useless for you for ten years." ”

"This ...... Okay, okay, you just grab it. ”

"Use you to rush me? By the way, ask Xiao Shen, do you need me to build a robotic arm for Lei Song by the way? ”

"I see."

The waiter paused, sighed and left.

After working with each other for so long, he still can't accept this old man's temper.

Or maybe he didn't understand why Chief Shen took such good care of him, so he specially bought this shop for him, not to mention, and arranged so many elites to be the old man's bodyguards.

In his opinion, such an act is meaningless.

We're gang members, so why bother making our own?

However, if he knew the true identity of this old man, maybe he would ...... Maybe it won't change my opinion of him.

Even the true identity of the old man is really awesome.

Luo Zhikang, one of the veterans of "Spark", is one of the few mechanical engineers in the organization.

The specialty is to turn decay into magic, and broken copper and iron waste parts can become murderous weapons in his hands.

In the past three years since the establishment of "Starfire", he has basically provided equipment support, and most of the damaged objects seized have been recreated by him.

Many of the equipment he has modified is even better than the original.

And before that, his name was even more thunderous.

Chief Engineer of the Tianhe Consortium.

can hold an important position in the hegemony of the former night city, the old man's personal ability is self-evident, and there are many companies that want to dig his corner at a high price.

However, after the fall of "Tianhe", his whereabouts are also unknown.

Most people thought he was dead, but they didn't know that he had just gone incognito and worked as the chef in charge of a small restaurant.

And secretly, in this way, continue to be loyal to the old club.

The waiter naturally doesn't know much about these secrets, but fortunately, the old man has a strange temper, and this job of taking care of him is easy, except for touching fish every day.

He cooks well, and it feels like a wise choice without modifying a mechanical stomach.

In the middle of a moment's thought, the door of the restaurant creaked open, and a short-haired woman wearing sunglasses walked in.

The waiter was stunned when he saw this, he had never seen such a beautiful woman...... However, he quickly came back to his senses and greeted him with a smile, "Welcome, what do you want to eat?" ”

However, he was greeted by the dark barrel of the gun, and a trance appeared behind him, took out the silenced pistol at his waist, and pulled the trigger cleanly at his temple.

Ugh.

With a headshot, the waiter fell to the ground with blood, and he didn't react to what happened until he died.

“…… What the?! ”

Seeing this scene, the others were taken aback and drew their weapons at the first time.

"Kill her!"

This is one of the safe houses of "Starfire" in Night City, and on the surface it looks like an ordinary small restaurant, and you can cook whatever you need to eat.

But most of the time it was unpatronized, from the waiters to the cashier, including the few customers who seemed to be eating, they were actually the bodyguards that Shen He equipped for Luo Zhikang.

They are also not ordinary gang members, but "ascenders" who are good at fighting, and each has more than a dozen strong strengths.

I have to say that Shen He still knows very well how precious talents are.

However, in the face of all this, Su Lin just took off her sunglasses, and then unconsciously hooked the corner of her lower lip.

It's finally not for Xia Wuwu to do this.

……

A minute later.

The fight that took place in the front hall did not reach the concentrated old man Luo.

It wasn't until he saw Su Lin walking into the back kitchen with a gun that he realized that something was wrong.

Something happened!

His first instinct was to activate the defense system here, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, the opponent's pistol was already pressed against the back of his head, "Don't move." ”

“…… Who are you? ”

Luo Zhikang gritted his teeth and raised his hand helplessly.

If the other party can break through here, it proves that the bodyguards in the front hall have been solved by her.

He is not good at fighting, and he has no ability to resist at all.

"The young master wants to see you, so he sent me to invite Mr. Luo."

Su Lin replied to the question, and narrated with an expressionless face.

"Young Master......?"

Before Luo Zhikang could react, there was a tingling pain in his neck.

Under the effect of strong sedatives, he lost consciousness within a few seconds.

Putting the "sea crane" on the table into her pocket, Su Lin dragged him out the back door, stuffed him into the trunk, and drove away.

It can be seen that Miss Su Lin is in a good mood now, not only does she keep a smile on her face, but she even chooses some favorite music to suppress the mania in her heart.

That's it, I'm not going to be much more neat than that guy Xia Wuwu?

But then again, how many fish have you caught with this bait?

To be able to make such an arrangement, the young master is really thoughtful.

And the front hall also has a special person in charge of the aftermath, and in less than half an hour, the corpses and messes inside disappeared.

The roller shutter door was pulled down, and then the sign of "Wangpu for sale" was hung up, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was just a small restaurant that could not be opened with the trend of the times.
