The layout of the apartment suite is very simple, with a bed built into the wall, a small bathroom, and a circular sofa in the living room, surrounded by a holographic projection device. Since the service fee was not paid, the picture played by the projection device was a scene.
Screen advertising.
In addition, there is a small room next to the sofa, which they seem to use as a storage room.
As for the "kitchen" in the house, it seems to be just a vending machine placed in the living room and a microwave oven on the table.
If I remember correctly...the interior layout of the 2,000 apartment suites in the entire super skyscraper is exactly the same, and this is already the "paradise" that countless homeless people outside are longing for.
Lin Mo recalled the magazines he had read and sighed secretly.
"Please sit down." Kitagawa Hiroshi pointed to the sofa and said.
Lin Mo sat on the sofa and looked at the suite.
Although it is a formulaic apartment that is mass-produced, it is obvious that the taste of the apartment owner can be seen from the different decorations in the room.
For example, Lin Mo saw that the house was filled with a large number of girl-style accessories, rag dolls, cosmetics on the table, girly clothes, and pink-toned carpets.
At this moment, Lin Mo also saw a photo frame placed on the table in front of him.
"This is your sister, she's so cute." Lin Mo reached out and took the photo frame.
There is a man and a woman in the photo. The man is Kitagawa Hiroshi. He is facing the camera with a smile on his face, and on his shoulder sits a little girl wearing a school uniform with an innocent smile.
"Yes, she's very cute. She's become even prettier since she became an adult. Sometimes I wonder if we are brothers and sisters. After all, I'm more depressed." Kitagawa Hiroshi walked into the small room. After the electronic door opened, Li Nei
There was a metallic smell of rust.
It looked like something had been knocked over, and some metal fell to the floor with a clanking sound.
After a while, Kitagawa Hiroshi walked out of the room, holding a rifle in his hand, and continued what he had just said:
"But this is Japan Street. In the territory ruled by the Tiger Claw Gang, beauty is a sin. She does not have the confidence to control beauty, so as an older brother, I am willing to be her confidence... It's a pity that I
I'm still not qualified enough to be an elder brother."
Lin Mo was silent. He didn't ask why he didn't call the police, but instead asked for such stupid things as a middleman.
Because the NCPD, the police department of Night City, cannot control such incidents.
The police force is insufficient, the funds are insufficient, and the equipment is insufficient. The police station is also full of corruption and indifference. All police officers risk their lives every day. The equipment of ordinary police officers is not even as good as that of street gangsters. This kind of high pressure
Under such circumstances, it is difficult to allocate police forces to respond to various criminal incidents.
Moreover, as NCPD is a listed company, they have also received sponsorship from major companies. If it is business related to the company, they will basically not control it.
Because of this, an industry has also spawned in Night City. NCPD will hire some secret mercenaries. These mercenaries have built-in NPCD communication channels and bounty systems. Whenever a crime occurs, the mercenaries can solve the incident.
Get paid.
Commonly known as outsourcing.
Lin Mo still remembers when he was playing the game. When he opened the map, he could see numerous criminal incidents in every corner, which made people feel dizzy at a glance. Players could control the game character V to go to various areas to solve incidents and obtain NCPD rewards.
.
But the game has turned into reality, which also means that the crime rate in Night City is extremely high.
"When was your sister taken away?"
"The night before yesterday, I was delayed because of something and didn't come home in time. She was worried about me, so she went out alone. The result was obvious, and she was captured by the Tiger Claw Gang."
Two days, it's a bit late... Lin Mo thought with a little regret.
I'm afraid that if someone rescues him, this brother can become an uncle.
"I know what you are thinking. There is no need to worry about my sister. If she is harmed, those people will die; if she is not harmed, those people will die too!" Kitagawa Hao's tone was cold, like a dormant building.
An active volcano with hot lava flowing beneath the ground.
With a strong movement of his wrist, he cocked the gun in his hand and pulled the bolt. The sound of the machines clashing was so beautiful, as if it was a metaphor for his desire for revenge, which would either burn him or his enemies to death, and was destined to never be extinguished.
At the same time, Lin Mo also glanced at the firearm in his hand.
——D5 Copperhead, a reliable firearm produced by Nocota. This company, like Affordable Firepower, monopolizes the low-end firearms market, but unlike Affordable Firepower, a company that produces cheap weapons, Noco
The weapons he produces have always been affordable and powerful.
Going back a hundred years, the most popular assault rifle in the world was the Kalashnikov. Now the firearm that has replaced it is this Copperhead. The sound of the gun is full of iron gray, and the gun body is as simple and light as a snake.
, loved by every marginal person who has just entered the industry.
"With this gun, if the place we want to raid is the stronghold of the Tiger Claw Gang, 2-3 people are fine, but if there are more than five people, your firepower is not enough." Lin Mo commented lightly.
"What, you little brat, do you have any unique insights? Should I go wash my ears and listen respectfully to your teachings? You don't even have long hair and you still want to teach me how to do things?" Kitagawa Hao said with disdain.
Spit on the ground.
It was about his sister. In order to rescue her, he almost took out all the valuable things in his family and the savings he had saved from previous tasks.
But he never expected that Wakako would send such a newcomer here. It would be a lie to say that he was not angry. He could only comfort himself in his heart: As Westbrook's best middleman, Wakako would not cheat him.
He is a small person, but this guy might have some special abilities.
But even as a newcomer, he could barely tolerate it, but now this kid still wants to teach him how to do things?
Lin Mo also realized that he had made a mistake. Thinking about it, his current appearance did make the other party a little distrustful.
I can't tell others that I have traveled through time. Counting my age in my previous two lives, I am already forty or fifty years old.
"Let's exchange information first. What are the combat prosthetics you have implanted now?" Lin Mo changed the topic.
Kitagawa Hiroshi glanced at him and said casually: "Right reinforced metal arm, Dinara YR21 skin guard, Qilushi hearing enhancer and enhanced lungs."
Lin Mo recalled the functions of these prosthetics and found that many of them could be ignored. The only one worthy of his attention was the Skin Guard.
"Basic subcutaneous armor? How many caliber bullets can it resist?"
"This is soft armor. It can't withstand many rounds of bullets. It is equivalent to a layer of body armor and is not as good as those steel armors that look like an iron can." Kitagawa Hiroshi explained.
"Well, that's enough. Were you a marginalized person before?" Lin Mo continued to look at the furnishings in the suite.
"Yes, I used to be a thug of the Tiger Claw Gang, but I quit. Now I am taking on simple private jobs. I don't want my sister to worry about me." Kitagawa Hiroshi said.
"But she is still worried about you being in an accident...Don't she know that this city is in chaos?" Lin Mo was a little puzzled. Even a 16-year-old "little brat" like him knew this.
things.
"Maybe I protected her too well and never let her come into contact with the dark side of this city since she was a child. I originally wanted to save enough money in this life to take her out of this ghost city..."
Kitagawa Hiroshi leaned against the wall, stroking a pistol in his hand, popping open the magazine with one hand and checking the bullets inside.
"Okay, I've sorted out all the equipment. Do you want to see if there's anything we can use?" He put the Copperhead and the pistol on his body and pointed to the small room.
Lin Mo shook his head: "No need, I have enough equipment."
"It's up to you. If you still need to go to the toilet to drain water or something, just finish it here quickly. It's okay if you hide in there for a while. After all, no one knows whether today is the last day of your life." Kitagawa Hiroshi took out a
A cigarette, lit and smoked with enjoyment.
"In my opinion, I think you need to relieve your worries as soon as possible. If it affects the possible battle later, that would be bad." Lin Mo replied calmly.
Kitagawa Hiroshi took a few puffs of the cigarette quickly, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out: "Okay, the rest time is over. Since you are so energetic, we will set off now."
"Tell me the specific situation." Lin Mo also stood up and took a look at his package.
"In the past two days since my sister disappeared, I have been looking for her day and night, and then yesterday I found the location where she was imprisoned. It was a small restaurant belonging to a small leader of the Tiger Claw Gang, who
I don’t know how many shady things are hidden there.”
Kitagawa Hao also picked up a package in the corner, carried it on his shoulder, and silently looked back at Lin Mo.
"What, are you afraid?"
"I'm afraid, I'm afraid those people won't last a few minutes." Lin Mo pulled out his samurai sword in the room and checked the smoothness of the blade and the sword.
The smooth blade surface reflected the sunlight coming through the window. The strong light made Kitagawa Hiroshi's eyes twitch slightly, and he felt a little shocked inside. He really didn't expect that this kid actually had such a sharp weapon hidden in his pocket.
A layman is watching the excitement, an expert is watching the door. Based on this smooth sword-drawing gesture, Beichuan Hao is very sure that if this kid had drawn the sword and slashed at him just now during the conversation, he might not have been able to dodge in time.
After the inspection was correct, Lin Mo continued to put the knife back into the hanging bag. If ordinary people did not observe carefully, they might not be able to tell at a glance that there was a murder weapon hidden in the hanging bag that was ready to kill at any time.
