Tramps in Night City have always been a big problem.

The latest economic crisis stemmed from the unification war launched by the new United States, which left Taiping Prefecture in ruins, a large number of investors withdrawing, and companies running away, leaving a mess of chicken feathers.

Because of the existence of Dogtown and the hopeless economic collapse, Mayor Lucius Lane faced this dilemma and came up with a positive solution:

Other statistical indicators, such as crime data in Taiping Prefecture, are directly excluded from the Night City Statistical Yearbook.

Statistics is an art, and Mayor Lane has figured it out.

With this exclusion, Night City's crime rate has plummeted.

Now he's going to launch an even bigger plan: wipe out the homeless!

Yes, what this policy is going to do is literally, to eliminate the homeless in the true sense of the word.

This incident has become the point of heavy criticism by his opponent Perares in the next mayoral election.

And if you want to get a more complete picture of this policy and eliminate the related pitfalls, you have to look for this candidate, Jefferson Perares.

After checking the situation of the stronghold a little more, and learning about the income and expenditure, Lille and V set out on the way back.

With his hand on the window, V yawned again, showing a lack of interest: "Hey, how do you feel like it's just a wind." ”

"Otherwise, shootouts every day?"

The car started and Lille turned on the radio and tuned to the temperature radio, where "Night City" was playing.

The electronic speaker sounded, and V raised his eyebrows: "It's quite appropriate, so we're going to get involved in the mayoral election soon?" Sounds like there's a lot of money to be made. ”

"This kind of thing is generally more and less money, and maybe you have to carry the black pot, and politicians are much darker than you think."

"Can it be darker than you?"

Lille looked at her helplessly: "Can you change the comparison?" ”

"That's no way, the blackest I've ever seen is you, if we get involved, who are we going to help?"

"Tell me what you think."

"Me?" V thought for a moment, "Hult is a stinky shit, no one will choose him; Ryan is a sinister fat man, but he does do some practical things.

Pelapez. It sounds good, but some people on the Internet say that he is a military technology launch to make Night City out of the United States, and in the end it is still a company dog.

What the company dog says is the equivalent of farting.

No, I said, we seem to be a little inflated, we're talking about elections. ”

In Night City, although there are elections, a special kind of centralized democracy is implemented.

This democracy is based on the election of councilors by the ten largest megacorporations in Night City, and then the mayor.

In other words, directly speaking, the election has little to do with the citizens of Night City.

However, these are superficial and should be noted by qualified politicians, as the requirements of this democratic condition are that they are based in Night City and that they are in the ten most powerful companies in Night City.

So essentially, the resources that companies invest in Night City and the policies they make to the citizens will be fed back into data such as turnover, and then they will be given democratic rights.

Of course, given the scale of these enterprises and the impact on society, the influence of citizens on democratic elections is basically in a very delicate position.

It would not be a big mistake to say that it has nothing to do with the citizens.

Lille shook his head: "We're big brother now, and if we weren't qualified to participate, the people in Night City would really be all numbers."

So Ryan or Perares? ”

"It's as if I had a name and you would choose it for me--

I'll pick Ryan, considering my experience in Atlanta, I guess I have to thank Ryan, a person like me who probably can only make a name for himself in Night City. ”

"Who isn't."

V looked at her with a slightly strange look: "So modest? ”

"That's a must." Lille smiled, "If it weren't for the famous V, how could I be where I am today." ”

"You know each other." V shifted his ass in satisfaction and moved his chair back a bit, "But if only he could be as decent as Perarez."

Alas, why are we just going to have to take sides between the bastards? ”

The car crosses the Santo Domingo Bridge and enters the Lijing area, from where the lights are brighter.

The company's tall buildings cover the sky, and artificial light sources replace the stars and the moon and hang high overhead.

At the end of the music prelude, the electronic female voice plays: "good morning, night city"

V relaxed, and a pair of long legs landed on the front panel of the car—

Lille glanced at it, and the arm put her leg back.

"What!"

"If you don't wear a seat belt, you still engage in dangerous maneuvers?"

"You're so lenient."

Early the next morning, Lille and V went to Mrs. Wells' house to find Jack--

This kid was red-faced, and Lille was suspicious: "Jack, didn't you do anything last night?" ”

"What a Thursday, I'm a wolf beer festival!"

In Jack's garage, the big man patted his motorcycle.

This is an ARCH Nazaré in red and black livery.

"In such a good mood?" V was amazed, "What did you do yesterday besides drinking?" ”

"Hey~" Jack waved his hand, looking proud, and on one side of his body, he "inadvertently" revealed the hanging ornament on the wall behind the bed.

The ornament appears to be a kind of circle made of tree branches, in which a net is made of thin wire, and under the circle are colored beads and dyed colored feathers

Very delicate jewelry, at a glance you can see that it is handmade.

When Lille saw this, he raised his eyebrows: "Dreamcatcher? ”

"I'll go, Hemano, how do you know this is a dreamcatcher sent to me by Misty?"

Jack smiled and hugged Lille: "Look good, only good dreams will flow down the feathers through this net, and nightmares will be trapped in dreams.

With the next day's sunshine, the ashes are gone~ Bang. ”

As he spoke, he took his other hand, put it in the sun, and blew on it.

I have to say that Jack is really like a kid showing off his toys

It can be seen that this big man really didn't get drunk yesterday, and he went out for a ride with Misty.

Jack put his arm around Lille: "Good brother, you should also think about this, otherwise you will make so much money"

Halfway through speaking, Jack suddenly stuck, and Lille seemed to be a loser

V was behind the two of them, watching the two exchange feelings: "Things are good things, but shouldn't we discuss the work behind?" ”

Jack let go of Lille and scratched his head: "Indeed, what will you do next?" ”

Lille said: "Let's go meet our mayoral candidate Pélares, he may have a job for us.

I'm going to think about what to do with it after the meeting, and I guess this candidate has a lot to say to us. ”

Jack sat down on his motorcycle and said:

"There are three clichés that mayoral candidates have on the streets: First, the first rule for taking on 'top secret' tasks: don't pick it up."

V also shrugged his shoulders: "Second, the first rule of working with politicians: don't cooperate. ”

The two looked at each other and said the third in unison: "Third, the first rule of contact with the police: don't make contact." ”

V added, "But we have more sinister people here. ”

Jack also nodded: "This job is going to be fat, right?" ”

Lille's face was full of black lines: "No, are you misunderstanding me a little."

The two looked at each other and shook their heads.

“.” Lille seemed to choke, but he quickly moved on to the next topic.

"It's hard to say whether live fat is fat or not, I only know when I see it, but this trip is estimated to inevitably deal with companies and gangs, and you can find a way to make a profit.

If I don't have an opinion, I'll start contacting Perarez and see how to get a vote --

So, the holiday is over, no one has an opinion, right? ”

Jack flashed his arms, full of energy: "Must mano!" ”

V looked at Jack and Lille who were full of energy, and suddenly asked, "I don't feel as motivated as before recently, do you have any clue?" ”

"Not motivated?" Jack wondered, "Something is wrong with you, girl, do you have a house?" Do you have a car? And."

Lille raised his hand to signal Jack to say no more, and looked at V: "It's okay, you'll be motivated soon." ”
