The heavy rain is getting heavier and heavier, with no signs of stopping at all. The crazy and dense rain seems to bury the whole world.
Occasionally, a few striking flashes of thunder flashed across the pitch-black sky, each flashing with thunder that resounded throughout the world. However, the explosion in mid-air at the top of the biotechnology tower was far more shocking than the thunder above the sky.
The constant flow of vehicles on the road, pedestrians holding umbrellas, and company employees watching through windows in other company buildings all witnessed this small but shocking explosion.
The aftermath of the explosion had a small impact, but its significance shocked countless people.
The NCPD patrol officers who were patrolling nearby rushed over as quickly as possible, but failed. More than ten people gathered in front of the biotechnology building, but they all hesitated and did not dare to step forward.
As the lowest-level patrol officers, they have very little combat equipment. The Night City Police Department will not waste too much money on these low-level patrol officers.
So much so that they often need to hold a pistol and wear an ordinary body armor to compete with various brutal thugs in terms of firepower, using their lives to make up for the gap in equipment and prosthetics.
Therefore, the patrol policemen who knew they were invincible did not dare to run into the building easily. They gathered around the door of the building and pretended to have contributed. It was enough.
As long as the superiors didn't order a forceful attack, they might still be able to save their lives.
It seemed that Lady Luck was looking after them. From the time they surrounded the entrance of the building until the security forces hired by Biotechnology arrived, they did not engage in a head-on exchange of fire with the thugs who broke into the building.
On the contrary, the security forces who came over expelled all these patrol policemen from the supervision area in the name of the company having the situation under control.
The storm was put down before it even started. Reporters from News 54 and WNS rushed to the scene with their assistants and filming drones like cats that smelled something fishy.
However, even if they are loyal to their duties, the information they finally get will inevitably be processed facts.
...
"Hahaha!" A man's bold and unrestrained laughter came from a dark alley in the company square.
Mann stood at the exit of the alley, overlooking the gate of the biotechnology building.
The NCPD was in chaos, the reporters and security forces who heard the noise were extremely noisy, and several float vehicles came from the sky. Bright searchlights illuminated the area as bright as day.
"Well done! Well done! Lin Mo, what you did makes me so happy. Look at those company dogs, running around like headless flies, but you didn't expect us to be there long ago.
If they run away, let them look for clues there foolishly!"
Mann laughed as he spoke. This man who never concealed his mood felt as cheerful as a hearty laugh.
Not only was the mission successfully completed, but Sasha was rescued safely and even played tricks on these company lackeys. Mann was in a particularly good mood tonight.
He turned around and looked into the alley.
The entire alley is covered by high-rise buildings. Compared with the humid areas outside, this place can be regarded as a shelter from the rain.
In the dark alley, Lin Mo sat in the corner angrily, leaning against the wall and rubbing his forehead regardless of whether the floor was dirty or not.
——When the thruster failed, it hurt him to death.
Sasha sat next to Lin Mo, covering the healed wound on her abdomen with her hands. Her eyes stayed on the hero tonight, and there was a bit of tenderness in her beautiful eyes.
Mann walked into the alley and came to Lin Mo. He bent down and looked at the young man sitting on the ground, his eyes full of admiration.
"I have to say, you are quite capable, boy. You ran from the door of the building to the top floor and rescued people. My impression of you has changed. Are you interested in continuing to work together in the future?" Mann said.
He smiled and extended an invitation to the young man from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Mo rolled his eyes at him angrily, shook his head, and joked in a teasing tone:
"Forget it, today was just an accident. I don't want to work with a gorilla standing stupidly downstairs."
"Hey, look what you said!"
Mann frowned, stretched out his thick finger and wanted to flick Lin Mo's forehead, but the other party reacted and blocked it with his hand.
"Look, he got angry out of embarrassment." Lin Mo looked at Mann with a smile. This rough guy had no choice but to let go of his hand with a wry smile.
"I don't think you will agree to it, but this invitation is always valid. If you want to join our team in the future, I welcome you at any time."
Mann also sat next to Lin Mo, smiling happily, but the smile only lasted for a while and gradually faded away.
"Okay, let's save these happy topics for later. Now we still have to talk about business." He sat up straight and looked at Sasha next to him from above Lin Mo's head.
"You owe us an explanation, Sasha."
Sasha lowered his head and looked away. From the corner of his vision, he caught a glimpse of Lin Mo looking towards him.
Finally, facing the doubts of the two of them, she opened her pink lips and began to whisper the reason for her willful behavior tonight.
Her usual gentle and charming voice was the only one left in the alley. After hearing her past, Lin Mo and Mann remained silent for a long time until she finished telling the whole story.
"Fuck biotech, fuck companies, what the heck, I should shoot a few grenades at their door, damn!"
After listening to Sasha's explanation, Mann didn't seem to blame Sasha. In his annoyed words, he seemed to still regret that he would just stay outside and look out. If he was given another chance, he would at least be in the building.
Leave some traces of yourself in it.
Even getting a participation award would be great!
After thinking for a while, he continued to comfort Sasha:
"You did a good job, Sasha. Your reasons are very good. Don't feel guilty. Marginal people like us are still marginalized if we don't seek happiness. But for this kind of thing, it's best to tell us in advance.
Let’s discuss it, after all, we are teammates..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, just when he was organizing his words to expose this matter easily, he was shocked to see that Sasha didn't seem to listen to him at all, but instead
He looked at Lin Mo, who was thinking with his head down.
Ever since, Mann also looked at Lin Mo, both pairs of eyes focused on him, as if there was something on his face.
This feeling of being watched also made Lin Mo feel a little strange. When he raised his head and saw that Mann and Sasha were staring directly at him, he was immediately startled.
"What do you think I'm doing? Do you want to listen to the talk of an underage brat?"
Lin Mo's expression was a little weird. He touched his face, but there was nothing special.
"I want to hear your opinion, Lin Mo." Sasha said softly.
What can I say...
Lin Mo's face showed a depressed look, and he subconsciously rubbed his forehead with his hands:
"What can you say? This is a matter of public opinion and mother-in-law's rights. You are willing to die to understand Kaixin... Then I can also fight to save you. If you ask me the reason
If so, it’s nothing more than saving you.”
"There are enough tragedies in this city. There are many things that I can't control, but at least I still have the ability to manage the things in front of me."
You can't watch someone you know die in front of you... In this case, he is really an indifferent waste with a simulator. Lin Mo thought to himself.
Mann burst out laughing, patted Lin Mo on the shoulder, and said happily:
"Is this your solution? Boy, you really like me!"
Lin Mo moved his body and tried to shake off the hand on his shoulder, but Mann did not give him a chance to break free, and instead held it tighter.
Helpless, he could only continue:
"You asked me what I think, and the answer is actually very simple. I will not make any comments on your behavior, but if there are similar things in the future, I hope you can say it instead of just leaving us a 'I'm sorry'.
"
Sasha listened quietly to Lin Mo's answer, until he said the last words, the depressed look on her face was wiped away, and she regained her previous warm look.
Her eyebrows were slightly curved, her smile was as bright as a flower, and her soft, ear-length short hair swayed slightly, moving with the rain and wind blowing in from outside the alley.
