From the driver's seat, looking at the four floating vehicles not far below that were about to leave the city limits of Night City, Kitagawa Hiroshi frowned and suddenly felt something strange.
Judging from the current situation, the overall situation has long been finalized. With the upgrade components of the aerostat provided by Lin Jun, the current power system of the Manticore aerostat can enter the "overload" mode at any time, thus catching up with the target and reaching the sky above the target.
As a top-of-the-line military aerodrome, even if compared with Luo Yin's privately customized aerodrome, the Manticore is not far behind in terms of speed. The only shortcoming is that it is far inferior to these in terms of battery life.
A private floating vehicle that can travel across states and oceans.
Coupled with the modifications visible to the naked eye on the outer shell of the floating car, it was obvious that if Lin Mo hadn't been on the floating car, Beichuan Hao thought that there was a high probability that he would not be able to stop Luo Yin's floating car.
Therefore, even if the other party wants to escape, they should fly to the sea. If not, they should stay in the city and find an opportunity to land at the NCPD headquarters or other places. Maybe there is a chance to survive.
Logically speaking, the other party should also know this.
But why did he fly the hovercar towards the deserted wasteland where no one is inhabited?
Although he had doubts, Beichuan Hao still chose to obey Lin Mo's order and wait for his instructions.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Lin Mo still looked calm and indifferent. His eyes did not stay on the four floating cars, but silently looked at the ink-stained sky.
Tonight, the stars are extraordinarily bright, but the moon is not very conspicuous, like a hermit who has faded all its brilliance, leaving only the stars shining brightly.
It's very similar to the dream scene from the past.
"First blow up those three floating vehicles that are in the way." Lin Mo said indifferently.
He didn't even need to guess, he also knew the origins of the four floating cars below, and the other three were nothing more than stand-ins used by Luo Yin to confuse Jack and the others.
After all, it was a dark and windy night. Under the cover of night, six floating vehicles drove out of the building garage together, leaving Jack little time to react. In desperation, he and his companions would definitely launch missiles immediately.
As for the result, needless to say, the aerial vehicle Luo Yin rode must have the characteristics of "unlockable", and the final target could only be other ordinary aerial vehicles.
Such a big shot would never bet on his own life.
Kitagawa Hao nodded, stretched out his hand and made some adjustments on the dashboard.
Soon, the missile launcher at the bottom of the Manticore shot out three fireworks. In less than a second, three aeroplanes exploded in the queue not far away, as if the geese flying south accidentally dropped them.
The team was lagging far behind in the black smoke.
Accurate hits, considerable damage.
Compared with Luo Yin's modified private aerial vehicle, the standard aerial vehicle of these companies obviously does not have many aerial countermeasures.
Although one missile cannot destroy an aerial vehicle, it is enough to damage them, and they will no longer be able to keep up with Luo Yin's personal aerial vehicle.
At this point, only Luo Yin's floating car remained in this group of "southern geese".
Lin Mo quietly watched the three fireworks below, as well as the private floating car that suddenly became much faster after being surprised. He couldn't help but feel a bit sad about the unpredictable fate.
At this moment, they were like eagles high above, teasing the prey below that had already been targeted, enjoying the joy of hunting.
"I wonder if our big boss will be frightened at this moment? It must be very uncomfortable for him to feel that his life is in danger, especially being chased by an unknown person like me..." Lin Mo Ren endured
I couldn't help but laugh, feeling quite emotional.
Kitagawa Hiroshi raised his head and glanced at the rearview mirror in the car, and responded with a smile:
"How can Mr. Lin be a nobody? After tonight, your reputation will resound throughout the world. Countless marginalized people and mercenaries will regard you as their idol and role model. You have done a great thing!"
Lin Mo smiled softly and said disapprovingly: "It is Mo Ying's name that will be resounding throughout the world, not me. Besides, becoming a legend comes with a price..."
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, with an inexplicable smile on his face, looked at the rearview mirror of the driver's seat, and met Kitagawa Hiroshi's eyes:
"You should know what the price is."
Beichuan Hao lowered his head and remained silent, and he could also hear what Lin Mo was referring to.
"Lin Jun, do you plan to retire after this mission?" After pondering for a long time, Kitagawa Hao finally asked tentatively.
"Retreat? How is that possible?" Lin Mo smiled, turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the car.
The wasteland loess scenery of the bad land is getting closer and closer, and you can vaguely see the wasteland area that looks particularly dark under the night. A little light from the city is scattered here, which is the only light source here.
Now, they have arrived at the outskirts of Night City, and are about to cross the large farm set up by the biotechnology company in the suburbs.
The two floating vehicles floated in the sky one after another. It was not so much a chase, but a chase of teasing prey. The life and death of the first floating vehicle completely depended on the latter one.
Choose when to take action.
It's almost done... Lin Mo looked at the wasteland below and thought to himself.
At this moment, he had the feeling that after performing to his heart's content on a stage that attracted worldwide attention, his mood became extraordinarily calm and peaceful.
He continued the topic just now, his voice drifting in the wind:
"I have only been a marginalized person for less than three months, how could I retire so quickly... After tonight, the only person who will retire will be Mo Ying, not Lin Mo..."
"As for the reason, you will naturally understand it later. Now I just want to tell you a few things. You have to listen carefully."
Beichuan Hao frowned, his heart full of confusion and doubts, but he did not dare to ask further. His long-term trust in Lin Mo overshadowed all the confusion in his heart at the moment.
In the end, he buried his doubts deep in his heart and replied calmly like a loyal warrior:
"I will keep everything Mr. Lin said in my heart."
Lin Mo smiled and said nothing more.
After pondering for a while, he said what he had been thinking about for a long time:
"After tonight, I will disappear for a while, but please don't worry, I won't die, and you don't have to worry about me. During the period when I leave, the team will be temporarily disbanded, but please remember, this does not mean that we
The bond between us is broken. All of you should keep in touch. I hope that when I come back, you can bring me a brand new look."
"Lin Jun, are you serious?" Beichuan Hao looked in disbelief and couldn't help turning around and looking straight at Lin Mo in the back seat.
This incident was so sudden that Kitagawa Hiroshi didn't know how to face it.
Lin Mo smiled and nodded:
"I know that this thing is sudden, but you have to accept the fact. If other people in the team ask Jack later, you can tell him the truth. As for the rest... you just need to tell them that I am not dead.
No need to explain too much."
"But if you weren't here...the team would definitely break up!" Hiroshi Kitagawa tried to persuade him to stay.
"That's why I chose to temporarily disband the team, and I also believe in you and Jack. Don't worry, it's all within my plan." Lin Mo smiled confidently, acting as reliable and trustworthy as ever:
"In my opinion, all of you need a period of time to settle and accumulate, instead of following me all the time. This will not be of much benefit to you."
"While I'm away, you have to work hard, take my one billion, and become the big brother of the Tiger Claw Gang as soon as possible; as for Sasha and Lucy, they have their own fate, so don't pay too much attention; Gloria
The same goes for Jack, both of them are adults and can handle their own affairs."
Having said this, Lin Mo paused, touched his chin, and said jokingly:
"As for David, if he grows up and can help, then I will give him my share of the gift in return; if he is still the same and has no talent, then you can take the gift yourself.
..”
Kitagawa Hao's mouth twitched and he looked helplessly at Lin Mo, hearing that the other person's last words were a joke.
After a long time, he sighed and said quietly: "Mr. Lin, actually I have read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Is your last sentence an imitation of what Liu Bei said to Tuogu in Baidi City?"
"Hey, you heard it." Lin Mo smiled easily, without the slightest embarrassment of being exposed.
However, his joke relieved the heavy atmosphere of parting at the moment.
He waved his hand and said indifferently;
"Anyway, it depends on David's performance. As for the so-called return gift, it is actually a return gift for the gifts you gave me. You should receive the email soon after you go back, and then just give it to each of them as required."
"Is every return gift different?" Kitagawa Hiroshi asked curiously.
"Well, I have carefully selected them all, and when we meet in the future, the gifts you give me will also be tokens of our reunion." Lin Mo replied seriously.
Speaking of this, Beichuan Hao could tell that Lin Mo had decided to leave now.
However, he was still a little confused and continued to ask:
"Lin Jun, why did you choose this time...Is it because of the bounty?"
"No, this is not the main reason. Rather, it is something I had expected when I entered the marginalized industry. But I did not expect that this moment would come so quickly..." Lin Mo said quite
With emotion, he stretched out his hand silently and took out a card from his backpack.
He threw the card on the passenger seat. Kitagawa turned his head and looked at it, feeling troubled.
"Is this the business card that Mr. Lin used to invite us to join the team?" Kitagawa Hiroshi asked.
It was the studio's "business card" that was made of plastic on the outside and plated with gold foil on the inside. He also had one, which was given to him by Lin Mo when he joined the team.
"Yes." Lin Mo walked over, took the card in his hand, and carefully scratched the surface of the card with his fingers, revealing the golden color underneath.
"At first, you may have mistakenly thought that the disguise of my card was just a deception. It looked like it was a garbage disposal studio. Behind the scenes, I must have wanted to form a team of marginalized people of my own. After all, the outer layer of the card is made of plastic.
, but the inner layer is gold-plated. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a mysterious disguise..."
Lin Mo picked up the card and looked at the gold card quietly.
Different from the vulgar advertisement on the outside, the gold on the inside is just a piece of gold without any pictures or text.
"Does this card have other meanings?" Kitagawa Hao asked in a low voice.
"It really didn't happen before, because at the beginning, the plastic on the surface of the card was not actually a disguise. I really wanted to set up a garbage studio. As you can see, you are now all official employees of the studio and have work IDs.
, I can get salary from Gloria, I didn’t lie..." Lin Mo smiled mysteriously.
He continued with emotion:
"It's just that the team will be temporarily disbanded in the future, and when it reunites, it's time to change its name. In the past, you thought the surface was a disguise, but in fact it was not, because the gold card on the inner layer was blank and had no meaning, but now it is."
Lin Mo casually found a knife from the car and flexibly carved a few words on the metal card.
He held the card between his fingers and flicked it onto the passenger seat casually.
Immediately, he walked back to the back seat of the car, picked up the Black Unicorn, and packed his equipment.
Arriving at the side door, Lin Mo stretched out his hand to feel the strong wind from the outside world, and at this time, the Manticore hovercar arrived at the predetermined location.
"I've said everything that needs to be said. After I jump, please remember my last order. No matter what happens, you can never look back!"
"Mo Ying's mission will end tonight. When the sun appears, you will understand everything I said, Hao, please remember that sentence..."
"I won't die!"
Lin Mo put on the mask again, with a wild smile on his lips. His whole body seemed to be embracing the sky, or like a warrior embracing his own end. He leaned over and fell, and the strong wind hit him instantly, blowing up his coat.
Beichuan Hao stared blankly at him as he walked away, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
At this moment, he seemed to wake up from a dream and suddenly picked up the golden card placed on the passenger seat.
The card has no pictures, no long advertisements, only three simple words, and a string of phone numbers.
