Chapter 202: Knowledge and action are difficult to unify

The Mizutani MZ2 is a high-performance coupe with a five-cylinder engine that delivers impressive speed and acceleration, making it a favorite of underground illegal street racers and the most common sports car in Night City.

But common does not mean cheap, but its price is the most reasonable under the same performance.

It is reasonable to mean that the price of the Falcon MZ2 is almost enough to buy two Thracian 388s.

V, who walked out of the back door of the motel, was fascinated by its smooth and domineering shape.

As for the Thrace, I'm sorry, but I'm not familiar with it.

Leon saw the longing in her eyes, and took out the car keys from Takemura and threw them to her: "Go for a ride, and find me at Judy's apartment on Charter Street after you're done." ”

V couldn't wait to jump into the car: "Woohoo! You are definitely the most generous boss in the world! ”

Leon shrugged noncommittally, and then carried Takemura to the original Thrace, which obviously had a strong engine but couldn't run fast because of its own weight.

By the time he threw the person into the back seat, V had already disappeared without a trace.

By the time he drove to the bottom of Judy's apartment, V had already run around the Kabuki neighborhood and was waiting for him.

There's even time to go to a nearby drink shop and order a small Coke on the rocks.

"It's too slow, boss."

"It's better for men to slow down." Leon got out of the car slowly: "You must be speeding." ”

Leaning against the car door, V drained the last sip of Coke and threw away the empty glass in his hand.

"There's no such thing as a speed limit in the Wanderer's dictionary, let alone that. The ticket can't be issued to me again. ”

"Let's go, meet the chicken that killed T-Bug."

The slightly deformed Coke glass makes a perfect arc in the air and falls precisely into the trash can.

Li Ang looked at V, who went upstairs in a dashing manner, and suddenly remembered a sentence.

God closes a door for you, and He also opens a window for you.

Although Ms. V's breasts are a little smaller, her legs are long and her buttocks are also very upturned, probably because she has been running all year round.

Just thinking about it, V suddenly turned around and talked:

"The first time I met Aveline, I thought she was a big shot, but it turned out."

"Alas! Very rude, boss. ”

Li Ang withdrew his gaze from his hips and changed the topic without changing his face: "Your playing skills should be very good, right?" ”

There was a quote in V's words: "It's okay, but since the last time I kicked two stupid* eggs on the court, no one wants to play with me." ”

"Any idea why? Because their eyes are not honest. ”

Li Ang pretended not to understand: "It's a pity that I wasn't there at that time, otherwise I would have screwed their heads off and kicked them as balls." ”

V smiled meaninglessly, turned his head and continued upstairs.

When he arrived at the door of Judy's house, Leon raised his hand and knocked on the door: "It's me." ”

After about a few seconds, the locked door opened, and behind the door was a slightly cramped Judy, who looked at him with a little fear in her eyes.

"You're here, Aveline has been waiting for you for a long time, come in."

Before Leon could speak, V crossed over to him and asked in a cold voice, "What about Aveline Parker?" ”

Judy was taken aback: "You are. Who? ”

V ignores her and goes straight into the apartment, looking for the client who nearly killed her two companions.

"What do you want to do!" Judy tried to stop it, but couldn't.

Leon put his arm on her shoulder and explained with a smile, "This is V, she has something to talk to Aveline." ”

"She?" Judy cowered as she caught her arms under him, like a poor quail.

On the way here, Leon had already told V over the phone about the ins and outs of the entire commission and what happened to Aveline.

The rest depends on how V chooses himself.

After a while, Aveline's screams came from the bedroom, and Judy was worried that her friend wanted to go over and have a look, but was forced by Leon to the bar in the living room: "A glass of vodka, on the rocks, lime juice, ginger beer, and if there is love, a little more." ”

He generally does not advocate hitting women.

But he doesn't care if a woman beats a woman.

When he finished speaking, Judy was still standing motionless in the bar like a stake, with a hint of resentment in her eyes, and it was obvious that there would be no love in the wine later.

Leon looked at the girl with a calm face: "Do you know how many people she killed by her clever actions?" ”

"V's best brother is still lying in his hospital bed."

"Oh forget, you don't know, you're a brainless fool like Aveline, you don't know the seriousness of the matter, and you don't care about the lives of a few mercenaries."

Maybe it was grievance, maybe it was fear, or maybe it was because of the powerlessness of not being able to save her friend, Judy actually cried directly: "I'm not!" ”

Leon ignored it, poured himself a glass of wine, and waited while drinking.

After about ten minutes, V walked out of the bedroom with a blank face, first went to the bathroom to wash the blood on his hands, and then came to the living room and sat next to Leon.

"Have a drink, anything."

Amazingly, Judy, who was still sobbing from time to time, actually poured her a glass.

I probably want to apologize for my friend.

"To T-Bug!" V raised his glass and touched it with Leon.

As the hot agave flowed down her throat and into her stomach, the girl, who was usually as hard as an iron lump, lay on the bar and buried her face deep in her arms.

Leon patted her on the back comfortingly, then looked up at Judy.

Judy understood what the man meant, and took the initiative to leave the living room and go into the bedroom to check on her friend.

As expected, V didn't kill Aveline, but only gave her a beating.

After all, the murderer who killed T-Bug and injured Jack was not her, it was Arasaka Company, and it was the upper family hiding in the shadows.

She's just a self-righteous clown who is used as a footcloth.

Not long after, Judy helped Aveline, whose face was covered in blood, to the bathroom and help her change out of her clothes, which were also stained with blood.

Li Ang retracted his gaze and sneered mercilessly: "Without that face, her future business will not be good." ”

V had recovered from the haze of his companion's death by this time, but his interest was still low.

Resting his arm, fiddling with the empty wine glass in front of him.

"She deserves it."

Leon turned his back to the bar and asked seemingly casually, "Arasaka and the Voodoo Gang, are you interested in making trouble with them?" ”

The Voodoo Gang is a mysterious gang of cyber hackers who hired Aveline.

V was instantly interested when he heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, it was Arasaka, so he went back again: "Forget it, it's good that Arasaka doesn't trouble me." ”

Li Ang pretended to be surprised: "Is this still the lawless V I know?" ”

V glanced at him angrily: "Nonsense, I'm obviously a good law-abiding citizen!" ”

Then, she listlessly explained, "I'm afraid that like Aveline, I won't get anything done, and I'll be involved with other people." ”

In the original plot, why did she dare to 'turn my body into flames' and Arasaka to the death, because she had nothing left.

The best brother, the most compatible partner, even she herself has only a few months to live.

Alone, he has completely become barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes.

And now just one Jack lying in a hospital bed is enough to make her worried.

Leon understood her thoughts very well: "Arasaka is indeed a big problem, but the Voodoo Gang is much easier to deal with. ”

V looked at him again, and looked back a little: "Did the Voodoo gang provoke you?" ”

"Not really." Li Ang said his purpose without concealment: "I'm just very interested in their hacking skills, besides, the biggest stronghold of the Animal Gang is also in Taiping Prefecture, and their body enhancement skills are also good." ”

V couldn't help frowning after hearing this, and asked strangely: "You are so powerful, you can still see the rags of the Animal Gang." ”

Li Ang smiled: "No way, there is a big family to raise." ”

V then remembered that the man in front of him had never revealed his life experience, and he was going to gossip about it, but he chose to give up when the words came to his lips.

The people who are in Night City, who don't have their own little secrets, why do they ask so much.

"Whatever you want, you're the boss now anyway."

Li Ang always felt that he had heard this sentence somewhere, and he seemed to be so perfunctory to Arasaka Laixuan.

"Then it's decided, let's take a trip to Taiping Prefecture tomorrow."

As she spoke, Aveline, with a blue nose and swollen face, came out of the bathroom, "Are you going to deal with the Voodoo Gang?" Is it okay to bring me one? ”

Despite her efforts to pretend to be calm, the wandering eyes that did not dare to make eye contact betrayed her.

After this time, the ambitious sex doll lady finally knows that she is afraid.

Especially V, her two white-looking fists are really uncomfortable to smash in the face.

In this way, Judy and Aveline, two 'close' friends, one is afraid of Leon and the other is afraid of V, but they also complement each other.

After listening to Miss Sex Doll's words, V's face was full of undisguised disdain.

"Take you? What's the use, turn around and sell us to someone else? ”

Her tone didn't weigh much, but it scared the terrified Aveline and nearly collapsed to the ground.

Thankfully, Judy showed up just in time to hold her up.

After Aveline stood firm, she gave her friend a reassuring look, and then walked up to the two of them with the fear in her heart, and said sincerely:

"I'm familiar with the Voodoo Gang and have met their bosses and leaders."

"I can be a decoy, and if they know I'm not dead, they'll come to me."

Judy couldn't bear to be under pressure alone, so she said, "I can help too, I can add combat programs to Aveline's chip so that she won't hold you back." ”

The chip in her mouth is a special behavioral chip.

Basically, it will only be implanted into high-level sex dolls like Aveline.

In order to allow customers to experience the best service, the chip will take over the consciousness of the sex puppet while it is working, directly control the physical body, break through various moral concepts, ideologies, crisis protection, personality, experience and other restrictions that are difficult for human beings to break through, and provide rich services to satisfy customers to the greatest extent.

At the same time, the chip AI can monitor the physical condition of the sex puppet in real time to avoid accidents caused by overplay.

After the service is terminated, the chip will clean up the memories generated during the service by itself, protect the privacy and security of the guests, and will not leave any mental burden on the sex doll itself.

On top of that, it's a sturdy firewall that protects the sex couple from cyber-level intrusions.

The reason why Aveline was able to survive the attack of the Voodoo gang of hackers and not turn her brain into a pulp was because of this chip.

V doesn't know much about this, she usually cleans herself and doesn't have the habit of tasting chickens and ducks.

But she has a certain understanding of Judy's technology, not only Mewtwo editing, she is also very talented in mechanics, programming, and chip manufacturing.

"Can you agree, I don't know if I say it, you have to ask him."

V decisively kicked the ball towards Leon, and the role of the boss is to make decisions at critical moments.

When Aveline heard this, she immediately cast a hopeful look at the man in front of her.

Li Ang touched his chin: "Want to seek revenge on the Voodoo Gang?" ”

Aveline nodded desperately.

Leon pouted, "Okay, for Judy's sake." ”

A piece of rotten meat that has been played with has its effect, let alone a big living person.

He has always valued Judy, and this time was no exception.

Because Judy's technology is exactly what he needs, the chip transformed by Judy can directly skip the steps of talent, experience, training, etc., and turn an ordinary person into a seasoned warrior.

Seeing that Leon finally agreed, Aveline suddenly showed a relieved expression.

Judy saw at a glance that her friend was not in the right state, crumbling, and could fall down at any moment.

"Xiao Ai, your injuries weren't healed in the first place, and just now they were ... Well, I'll take you back to your room to rest. ”

However, Aveline's first reaction was not to agree or disagree, but to look at Leon and V.

Seeing this, V waved his hand impatiently: "Go, go, go." ”

Aveline was able to return to the bedroom with Judy's help.

"With her half-dead appearance, even if the combat program is installed, it won't play a big role." V commented dismissively.

Li Ang looked relaxed: "I didn't expect her to play a role." ”

V nodded approvingly, "That's right, by the way, do you have any plans for the Voodoo Gang to let Aveline out as bait?" ”

Li Ang looked at her in surprise: "Is there a famous V still need to plan?" ”

"Go to Taiping Prefecture, find the Voodoo Gang, then take the things and leave."

V got up and patted him on the shoulder: "I like your confidence, but please don't bring me with you next time you brag, those god-like hackers are not as easy to deal with as you think, as far as I know, they can fight back and forth with network surveillance." ”

"It's a pity that Jack isn't there, and he knows all about these things."

"But I know an intermediary in Taiping Prefecture, so I might be able to ask him about the situation."

With that, she walked into the bar and found her favorite Bacchus in Judy's wine cabinet.

Shaking the wine bottle and hearing the pleasant sound of the wine hitting the bottle, V smiled with satisfaction: "Would you like another drink?" ”

Leon refused: "Forget it, I've got enough today." ”

V shrugged and filled his own glass before drinking it all.

Looking at the empty wine glass in her hand, she sighed: "Life is like a feast, you don't lose too much wine, but you can't get drunk." ”

"Dexter's dead fat man, sometimes he makes sense."

Li Ang smiled: "Then I will also send you a sentence, poverty is not the original sin, greed is." ”

As soon as these words came out, V's mood suddenly became depressed, and he couldn't help but pour himself a glass: "T-Bug also said something similar, before we entered the Kambi Mansion, but unfortunately none of us understood the meaning at that time, including T-Bug himself. ”

"They are all people in the red dust, which is so easy to see." Leon chatted with her for a while, and by the time Judy came out of the bedroom again, most of the bottles of Bacchus had bottomed out.

Of course, it was all V who drank it alone.

Judy looked at the messy bar: "Why haven't you left yet?" ”

Leon turned to her, "Of course it's to wait for you." ”

"Me!" Judy retreated uncontrollably, like a frightened fawn.

"Okay, no kidding." Leon picked up V, who was already dazed: "Let Aveline wait for us to call tomorrow, and besides, don't forget what I asked you to do before." ”

Judy was very tempted to refuse the commission, but she didn't have the courage to say anything until the two of them walked out of the apartment.

Looking at the messy bar counter again, there is a brain-computer interface eyepiece quietly placed.

"This must be the video of Saburo Arasaka's death, right?"

Thinking of this, she knocked her head in distraught: "You're really useless, Judy! How can you be frightened by a man's eyes! ”

How Mewtwo complained about herself and didn't mention it for the time being, on the other side, Leon and V came downstairs.

"I've been staying for so long, it's getting dark, and I'm drinking and making a mistake!"

Looking at V, who was extremely bad at drinking, it took a long time to find the car key: "Boss, I'll take you for a ride!" Night City at night is much more exciting than during the day! ”

Li Ang snatched the key from her hand: "The driving is not standardized, the relatives are in tears, and I still want to live for a few hundred more years." ”

"Hundreds of years!" V sneered: "What you just said, you forgot it, greed is the original sin, and Saburo Arasaka only lived for 150 years." ”

Leon didn't think there was any need to explain too much to a drunk, and half-helped and half-hugged her into the passenger seat.

Takemura is still lying in the back seat honestly, and it is basically impossible to recover his mobility without professional treatment.

Activating Thrace, Leon plans to send V back to the apartment first.

As for the Hayabusa MZ2, I can only park it here for the time being, and wait for the next time to pick it up.

"I guess it won't be stolen, I knew I should have left the key to Judy." Leon muttered and drove the car towards Little Chinatown.

The V on the co-pilot writhed like a worm: "Boss, don't you always dangle around, okay, it makes me dizzy." ”

Li Ang, who had not moved at all, opened the external circulation and let the fresh air dispel the alcohol in the car.

"If you close your eyes, you won't get dizzy."

V obediently closed his eyes, and then quickly opened them again: "Really nausea. ”

No matter how beautiful a girl is, she is in a state of embarrassment when she is drunk.

In the past five minutes at most, Leon has appeared in the elevator of the apartment with V, who cannot control himself.

That Thracian 388 was unavailable, miserable, and carried a bunch of speeding tickets.

Being able to drive it over speed is a kind of ability, and Leon feels that he definitely has the talent to be a racing driver.

I'm sorry Takemura, if you stay in that environment for a night, you should be pickled, right?

I knew I should have stuffed him in the trunk.

It's a pity that by the time Leon thought about this, the elevator had already arrived.

Under the astonished gaze of the apartment tenants, he trotted all the way to the door of V's room.

It took me a long time to react, and now the apartments are all smart identification locks, and I don't need a key at all.

"I'm sorry, I was rude just now."

Leon said sorry to the confused V and opened the door and went in.

I don't know if it's a familiar smell at home that will make V feel safe, and he is a little more conscious, and he struggles to land from his arms.

Staggered to the bathroom, taking off as he went.

As he took it off, he said, "Why is it so hot today, it's so strange." ”

Leon watched her take off naked, and it wasn't long before the sound of water was heard in the bathroom.
