"From what I see, this is definitely a conspiracy of the Snake State, and these gangs of gangsters must have something to do with them! Why do these guys cling to us when we come out to trade, and why does the Shebang's olive branch...
What a coincidence? They are in the same group as these gangsters!"
After V finished explaining, Mal continued to curse. This angry look made people wonder if he was injured.
"So what if it is? Do you have any evidence?" V refuted irritably.
Mal paused, but still refused to give in: "I won't compromise with them anyway!"
"But the family can no longer hold on any longer. How many men are left who can fight..." V's face became a little depressed: "Two people will die today, and one or two will die tomorrow. If we continue to die like this,
, not many people are willing to fight.”
"The worst case scenario is to quit the family, v. I think you'd better not be nostalgic. After the death of Selita's mother, the family is no longer the family we are familiar with. If the family really chooses to join the Snake State in the future, then I will too.
I won't resist their decision, but they can't force me either. At worst, I will choose to quit the family and make a living elsewhere." Mal said coldly.
"In my opinion, Night City is a good place. With my skills, I may not be able to do something here." He said with some confidence.
Although he is already a little older, he still has a vigor and energy that does not belong to young people.
It's just that Lin Mo, who was sitting back and acting as a bystander, wasn't too optimistic about Mal's somewhat overconfident words.
v sighed, her expression a little tangled, she continued to hold her chin, and tapped her thigh unconsciously with her other hand, as if she was lost in thought.
Marr continued to persuade:
"V, you are quite capable, why bother to stay in the family? It's not like you don't know the situation in the family. People like us who are willing to fight, do these dangerous tasks every day, sooner or later we don't know where we will die.
On the contrary, those conservative tribesmen are different. They just stay in the camp if they have nothing to do. If this continues, the family members will inevitably be inclined to join the Snake Nation."
"Take it one step at a time. Let's talk about it when the time comes. Besides, haven't you quit the family yet? Head." V shook his head and made a straightforward decision:
"If the family really chooses to merge into the Snake State, then I will also consider going it alone."
The conversation between the two was clearly heard by Lin Mo and Mitch. The two of them seemed not to worry about whether it was appropriate for outsiders to hear the conversation.
While Lin Mo was listening, he was also thinking in his mind.
It was only now that he suddenly discovered that the Bucker family's choice to station near Night City turned out to be related to the nuclear explosion.
In other words, if it hadn't been for the impact of the nuclear explosion, perhaps the Bakker family would not have come to the state where Night City is located so quickly, and v would not have come to Night City so quickly.
It seems that I have unknowingly affected the established plot of the game...
"Ahem, you two, can you listen to my opinion?"
Just when V and Mal were still talking about the possibility of "quitting the family," Lin Mo suddenly intervened in the topic, interrupting their narration.
It has to be said that his astonishing performance in slaughtering the gangsters from the Sword Club was quite valuable.
Hearing his words, V and Mal both stopped talking and turned their heads to look at Lin Mo in the back seat, their eyes showing doubts and a hint of expectation.
"Master, you can say whatever you want, and V and I will listen carefully." Mal said with some respect.
Although there is a difference in age between the two, their attitudes are completely opposite at the moment.
As an elder, Mal is more like a younger brother running errands, while Lin Mo, who is still young, has become a dignified boss.
It's just that Lin Mo didn't bother to pay attention to this guy with a low sense of presence. His eyes stayed on V from beginning to end, asking for her opinion.
Under his gaze, V looked a little curious, his beautiful eyes widened slightly, and there was a little expectant smile on the corner of his mouth.
"If you really decide to quit the family in the near future, then why not try to live in Night City for a few days? Even if you only live there for one day, you should be able to understand this city." Lin Mo
Give advice with a smile:
"Please forgive me for accidentally listening to your conversation just now, but I guess you two haven't lived in Night City yet, right?"
"Yes, in fact today is the first time we have crossed the border wall and come here. As for the Night City, we haven't visited Night City yet." V said thoughtfully:
"But we have heard about this city. It is said that it is a city of dreams. Countless people come to this city every year, but I guess the ending of these people must not be good."
"Oh, don't you know this after seeing it with your own eyes? Since you don't know much about this city, why not take this opportunity to stay in the city for a few days? Moreover, for the injuries of your people, you still need to find a righteous person to be on the safe side.
Let the physical doctor take a look." Lin Mo persuaded.
V also keenly heard the hidden meaning of Lin Mo's words. He looked at this mysterious young man with curiosity, his delicate lips opened slightly and asked:
"Do you have any good recommendations?"
"I have many acquaintances in Night City. You just need to find a place to stay tonight and go find them early tomorrow morning. Well, I will give you a note later. Then you can press it
Find a Japanese man at the address on the note and he will help you." Lin Mo pondered for a while and said.
"Thank you...Lin Mo." V obviously relaxed a lot, and his eyes looking at the young man became softer.
After all, finding someone willing to help in an unfamiliar place is no less than finding an oasis in the desert.
What's more, Lin Mo's previous battle performance also gave the two of them a huge impact. Although the boy looked younger, both V and Mal undoubtedly had him for his suggestions.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "However, please remember that you must not go to him until tomorrow. If you can't wait to find him for help tonight, he will not be free.
." Lin Mo said solemnly.
V and Mal looked at each other and nodded seriously.
Mitch sat next to him and watched silently without saying a word.
He didn't know why Lin Mo recommended the two of them to go to Night City. After all, everyone who had lived here knew what this city was like.
But this was Lin Mo's recommendation after all, and it was impossible for him to undermine the other party, so he could only watch quietly.
I hope the two of them will not be disappointed in Night City.
...
...
The sandstorm has finally passed, but it still left many traces on this land, like a mess after a tsunami.
The entire sky seemed to have changed color, turning into a turbid and ugly dark yellow; there were also obviously more turbid particles in the air, and it was as if a new filter had been put on between the sky and the earth, and the visibility was also affected.
Influence.
But the most harmful period of the sandstorm has passed, and through the yellow sky, you can vaguely see that the sun is about to set.
Lin Mo, who had been in the car for a long time, was finally able to get out and take a breath, even though the air didn't smell good.
Members of the Bakker family also came out one after another and returned to their off-road vehicles. They also moved the bodies of their two companions into the same vehicle.
After that, one healthy companion and one less injured companion will carry the bodies of the two tribesmen back to the family camp.
Everyone present witnessed this scene.
Seeing the two corpses of the tribesmen being carried into the car alive, Mal's expression was a little depressed, and his words inevitably brought a bit of heaviness as he said:
"Although I don't know how you people in Adecado dispose of the corpses of your clansmen, in Balk, we always try to take the corpses of our clansmen back as much as possible, let their souls say goodbye to their relatives and friends, and then
Cremated and buried..."
"They're all the same, so what's the difference? It's normal for homeless people to die from wandering." Mitch sighed:
"We are like tumbleweeds, rolling around in various states. When we find a suitable place to grow, we will take root and sprout. Even if we cannot find it, we will not wither in the middle. No matter how long it takes, the wanderers will always exist."
Hearing this, V on the side chuckled softly, attracting the attention of the others.
Facing the stares of everyone, she seemed very calm, her tone was very emotional, and she said disapprovingly:
"No, you are just describing a group of homeless people... To us individual homeless people, we are more like dandelions..."
She paused, looked into the eyes of the others, shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Either take root or die."
Everyone was silent.
for a long time.
A high-pitched female voice broke the quiet atmosphere:
"Hey, Mitch, Lin Mo, we have to go, otherwise we won't be able to catch up on tonight's meal!"
Lin Mo and Mitch looked away.
They saw Panan Niao Na standing on the road not far away, waving to them, and their off-road vehicle was also parked on the roadside at this time.
Scorpion also got off an off-road vehicle and waved to them with a smile.
Mitch sighed, turned around and nodded to the Bakker family:
"We'll leave first. Everyone, please be careful on the road."
"Pay attention to safety and see you again when we have the opportunity." Mal nodded.
At this time, Lin Mo also walked over, holding a note in his hand, and handed it to V's hand.
No words were needed, the two just nodded to each other calmly, and then the young man left with Adecado's people.
The afterglow of the setting sun made the already dark yellow sky look even more dazzling and golden, and the shadows of the two people became quite slender.
Looking at the two people's retreating figures, Mal suddenly smiled inexplicably, and said to V next to him in a teasing tone:
"Hey, have you noticed that that kid seems to be interested in you? In the car just now, his eyes never left your side."
v rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Boss, what are you talking about?"
"What should I say, if you are also interested in him, why not take action quickly? He is handsome, powerful, and has such a mysterious background. He can also arrange people in Night City to help us. On the other hand, Mitch didn't even say a word
, it means that he should not be from Adecado, such a potential stock!" Marr urged, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.
His idea was also quite simple. If he had to leave the family and work alone in the future, it would be great if he could have someone to take care of him in Night City.
Besides, having lived in the family for such a long time, as a senior, he was also very concerned about V's life events. This cyber hacker's temper was not that easy to control.
"Go away, I'm too lazy to tell you." V put his hands in his pockets and shook his head.
"It's just that the age difference is a bit big... That boy looks like he's probably not yet an adult, but you are already in your twenties..." Mal continued to chase after him, with an ambiguous smile on his lips:
"Tell me, is this a child driving a big car?"
v sighed, already a little impatient: "Boss, you are so stubborn, why don't you go get along with that kid."
"Fuck, I'm just a man!" Marl suddenly became unhappy.
V, who was extremely annoyed, also cursed in a low voice: "Fuck, am I not a pure girl?"
"Huh? Isn't it right to be a pure girl? I just like people who are younger than me. Don't you like people who are younger?"
"Get out of here!" V raised his middle finger directly at Mal and said angrily: "There's no way his eyes are interested in me!"
"Isn't it?" Mal spread his hands and leaned back tactically.
"That's clearly the way an old father looks at his daughter. Damn, I'm also confused as to why he gave me that kind of look." V said in confusion.
Mal was stunned. Recalling the scene in the car, it seemed to be exactly what V said. The boy's eyes didn't seem to mean that.
"I don't care, if a young man is interested in you, what do you think?" Mal was stubborn and wanted to ask for an answer.
