In the early morning of the next day, Delamain's dull engine sound resounded on the roadside, walking through the streets like a dragon, and finally slowed down gracefully and stopped perfectly in front of the mansion.
Lin Mo, who was carrying a satchel, threw the package into the car with a flick of his hand and got into the back seat of the car.
“Welcome to Delamain Taxi Service, guest, it’s a pleasure to see you again.”
"Send me to Twist Street in Westbrook."
Lin Mo leaned on the seat, and the soft and comfortable cushions relieved him from the fatigue of getting up early.
"Okay, guest, I see that you seem a little tired. If you are not in a hurry, please take a nap. I will slow down the car to give you a comfortable rest environment and safely deliver you to your destination."
"Sorry to trouble you, Lao De." Lin Mo had no reason to refuse this proposal.
"It is my honor to serve you, your distinguished guest." The bald AI still had the same elegant and unhurried tone.
The vehicle slowly drove away from the mansion. The dark and noble body seemed to symbolize the identity of the owner. The doors and windows made of special materials were enough to prevent large-caliber machine gun fire.
Faced with such a tough nut to crack, no gangster with no brains would provoke a combat taxi on the road.
After Lin Mo took a short nap to eliminate the fatigue caused by getting up early, Delamain's taxi seemed to have hit the right time and arrived on the road outside Twisted Street.
"Thank you for using Delamain Taxi Service and wish you a safe journey."
It was morning, and there were only two or three sex couples on the street, not many in number.
They also knew that this time was not the peak business season, so they were not very interested in paying attention to the situation on the street, and did not realize that Lin Mo was observing them.
The layout of the street is exactly the same as in the past, with not much change. There are still countless garbage bags piled in the corners of the alleys, and there are several places where he used to sleep.
It's just that those sex dolls standing on the street are no longer the same group as before.
Just like leeks that grow again and again, if you cut a batch, new ones will always grow.
It’s hard to avoid feeling a little emotional when revisiting an old place.
Lin Mo walked through the streets and finally came to the pachinko shop he hadn't seen for a long time.
There were not many customers in the store, so Lin Mo walked straight in without attracting many people's attention.
Walking into the private room deep inside the store, Lin Mo was shocked to find a strong bodyguard in a suit and leather shoes standing at the door.
"It seems that this old guy's connections and power have grown in recent years. No wonder he can become Westbrook's number one middleman in the game." Lin Mo thought to himself.
The game also introduces Wakako Okada. She once had six husbands, each of whom was the eldest brother or senior member of the Tiger Claw Gang.
But without exception, all her husbands died, and she is the only one who survives until now.
Lin Mo still remembers the comments about her:
A poisonous scorpion with the appearance of a kind old lady.
Lin Mo didn't hesitate and walked in.
"Stop!" The bodyguard stretched out his hand to stop Lin Mo.
"I have made an appointment with Wakako, don't you know me?" Lin Mo said coldly, not shy at all and looking at the bodyguard.
The bodyguard's eyes scanned Lin Mo carefully. His eyes seemed to be high-range artificial eyes, and he could accurately identify Lin Mo's identity.
"I'm sorry, please come in." The bodyguard moved away, his face full of respect.
The private room is only separated from the outside play area by a wall, and there is not even a wooden door. There are strings of curtains like glass beads hanging on the door, covering the decoration inside the private room.
Lin Mo walked in and immediately saw the old woman sitting behind the table. She was still wearing the simple kimono, with white hair and a kind face. The table had already been set with steaming hot tea, and the aroma of tea filled the air.
The tip of Lin Mo's nose was limited to this elegant room.
Separated by a wall, they are like two worlds.
"Long time no see, kid."
Wakako was sitting in the office chair, wearing round reading glasses on her face, with her hands flat on her knees, looking like a kind and kind grandmother.
But on her old thighs, which were as old as dead trees, there was a pair of coquettish and ferocious Ukiyo-e tattoos, like a ferocious tiger sealed in the picture.
"It's been a long time indeed, my mother-in-law, Wakako." Lin Mo also gave her a face and added the title of mother-in-law.
"I didn't expect that the kid I used to be has grown up now. He is really a talented person. If my useless sons are half as handsome as you, then I will be able to fulfill my wish, old lady."
She is good-looking, and then uses it as a bargaining chip to make friends with some female executives of the company... Lin Mo naturally knows what she is thinking.
Although prosthetics have already spread to the general public and plastic surgery is even easier, natural good looks are still a rare advantage.
"Thank you for your concern, mother-in-law." Lin Mo replied humbly.
Okada Wakako stretched out his hand and placed a cup of tea in front of Lin Mo. He asked as if he was chatting: "How is it? How are you getting along with your sister?"
"Meeting her is the luckiest thing in my life, and I am also very lucky to be taken in by her," Lin Mo said.
"Then I'm relieved. You don't know. At that time, I heard that someone from the Tiger Claw Gang went to find trouble for your sister without authorization. I was also quite angry. But what surprised me the most was that you, at such a young age, could actually
Killing an adult is truly a hero." Wakako said with a slight smile.
"It's just a coincidence. I want to ask my mother-in-law, what happened to what happened that year?" Lin Mo Qingmin asked, taking a sip of tea.
"It's nothing. The mastermind behind the scenes found out that a little brat rescued someone. He felt very shameless, so he committed suicide within a few days. Such a stupid guy is a waste of resources in the world." Wakako smiled kindly.
Laughed.
If you say this, even the stray dogs on the street won't believe this nonsense... That's not right, dogs are already extinct in the Night City.
Lin Mo also smiled, and then he didn't want to waste any more time and asked directly:
"By the way, what trouble I caused my mother-in-law to do is done now?"
"Look at your anxious look. Do you really not want to chat with grandma for a while longer?"
Wakako still smiled and took out a separation chip from under the table, "The news is all on it."
"Is it a cyber hacker named Sasha?"
Wakako was slightly startled: "My child, how did you know?"
Lin Mo smiled and without explanation, picked up the separation chip and inserted it into the interactive interface under his earlobe.
I have to say that this way of exchanging information is really convenient.
All information, voice and even video can be stored on a separate chip. As long as others plug it into the interactive interface, the processor in the brain will naturally read it.
A string of information also appeared on Lin Mo's retina. The hacker's name, age, professional level, and call records between her and Wakako were all browsed by Lin Mo one by one.
"How about it, it's not bad. I am a senior cyber hacker who is qualified to enter the Afterlife Bar. He has excellent professional skills and is not affiliated with any organization. He just usually works with a team of fringe people." Wakako introduced:
"By the way, that marginal team also has a very good mission completion rate. It is a rookie team. If you need it, I can introduce it to you."
Just as he finished reading the information on the separate chip and put it back on the desktop, Lin Mo also became interested when he heard this:
"Mother-in-law, if you want to sell your connections at a good price, you have to reveal some information to me."
"You kid, you are smarter than before." Wakako sighed with emotion, and then continued:
"The boss of the team is called Mann, a senior mercenary who often acts as a forward in the team, followed by Dolio, the deputy of the team, Sasha, a network hacker, Pila, a technical expert, and Rebecca, a gunner girl. If
If necessary, they would occasionally use a homeless man named Falco as driver."
"It's a very standard team configuration. It seems like their boss knows people well." Lin Mo praised.
"If you want to hire them, you can come to me, but the cost is not cheap. By the way, remember to pay the balance." Wakako said kindly.
"That's natural. How could I deceive my mother-in-law?" Lin Mo's eyes glowed blue and he transferred the remaining amount to Wakako.
"If you have anything to discuss with the hacker, you can go outside and talk on the phone. After all, there are a lot of people talking in the store. If you are interested, you can also play pachinko. I can buy you a thousand marbles privately.
"Wakako said with a smile.
"I do have something to discuss with the hacker. Let's talk later, mother-in-law." Lin Mo got up and walked out of the private room, came outside the store, and dialed the number of the cyber hacker according to the number given by Wakako.
"Hello, hello." The phone was connected, and a sweet and charming voice came from the other end of the communicator. Lin Mo suddenly thought of the gentle meow like a kitten, which seemed to scratch people's hearts.
...
...
PS: Sasha is still in the current timeline, so the hackers in Mann's team are not Qiwei and Lucy.
Also: Since the Chinese translations of Rebecca include Rebecca and Rebecca, the author decided to use the official translation of the game - Rebecca after careful consideration.
