Lu Qing raised her head and looked at the tall building in front of her.
This is a relatively standard-looking building. The reason why I say this is because there are no weird billboards on this building.
Of course, there are still neon lights, but the color is not as flashy pink.
And this is exactly why Lu Qing chose this building. When she searched for rental houses on her personal terminal, she finally chose the room in this building after careful screening.
After walking around the building for a while, Lu Qing finally decided to rent it with satisfaction.
The next moment, 8,000 yuan disappeared from her credit card, and the lease period was two months.
This is no longer the fringe area of the city. Although it is completely unqualified to be called the middle area, it is already separated from the low-rise houses where the poor live.
There was no garbage, no dark and dirty alleys, and there were no strange corpses. In short, Lu Qing was quite satisfied with the environment here after looking around.
Pulling the suitcase, Lu Qing came to the elevator and chose the floor she was on, the 22nd floor.
Her suitcase was given to her by Victor, and the Wolf King's skin was packed in it. In addition, it also contained many daily necessities and a change of clothes.
Victor arranged for these to be prepared for her.
After all, if you live in the Night City, the clothes on Lu Qing's body will seem a little too sparse.
After all, she only had one piece of clothing, and that piece of clothing had become dusty when she walked in the desert, not to mention it was stained with a lot of blood after killing the werewolf.
So the day before entering the Night City, that piece of clothing was thrown into the washing machine.
What Lu Qing is wearing now is another set of clothes given to her by people in the motorcade.
The upper body is a black sweater, a blue denim jacket, and the pants are shorts, which are also blue.
If you ignore the cloak on her body, Lu Qing now looks almost like an NPC in the Night City.
The reason why it is said to be similar is because Lu Qing does not look like a resident of this world, either in terms of temperament or appearance.
When the residents here first saw Lu Qing, they probably thought of those old photos displayed on the Internet or in memorial halls.
Victor also asked Lu Qing specifically if she was a person from the old era who had just woken up from the dormant warehouse.
And Lu Qing "admitted" it after thinking for a while. After all, this could explain many unreasonable things about her.
There's no harm in it anyway.
Pulling up her hood, Lu Qing walked into the elevator and climbed all the way to the 22nd floor.
There was no one else in the elevator and it was very quiet.
"bite!"
The sudden sound in the elevator brought Lu Qing back from her thoughts. She walked out of the elevator door, looked around, and found the room she rented on this floor.
After entering the twelve-digit password given by the landlord after paying at the door, Lu Qing walked into the house.
"Crack."
As soon as the door opened, various lights in the room automatically turned on. Lu Qing closed the door behind him and observed the environment in the room.
White and smooth walls, square metal tables, carpeted matte floors, and some unknown blue line lights are embedded in the wall as if they were flowing.
There was a huge fan hanging on the ceiling, which made Lu Qing couldn't help but doubt the technological level of this world.
Is this because there is no air conditioning or simply because air conditioning consumes more electricity?
Then can you dismantle these LEDs that have no purpose?
After walking into the room, Lu Qing put the suitcase away and then walked around the room carefully.
There are not many things in the living room of the house, only a small metal table and a sofa.
On the left side of the living room is the bathroom, where you can go to the toilet and take a bath.
In front of the entrance to the bathroom, there is a display screen. Next to the display screen is a shelf containing various game cartridges.
Lu Qing even saw the game controller, which almost made her sit down and play two games to give it a try.
"Let's try again after we finish the business." Putting down the controller, Lu Qing whispered.
On the wall next to the display screen and the metal rack where the games are placed, there is a row of long glass windows. If you look out from here, you can see the commercial street below.
Both sides of the street are filled with various shops, and a large number of pedestrians walk here, enter the shops, or walk out of the shops.
At the end of this wall is the bedroom.
In fact, it is better to say that it is a bedroom, just a bed.
There is a double bed built into the floor, with white pillows and soft blue quilts.
Lu Qing, who had not slept in such a comfortable environment for a long time, lay on the bed for a while and almost became addicted to it and did not want to get up.
Anyway, that's pretty much it.
After roughly checking the structure of the room, Lu Qing put everything in the suitcase and left the room.
When I came downstairs, I looked around and saw a taxi driving towards me.
Seeing this, Lu Qing quickly waved to the taxi to stop in front of her.
After opening the back door and getting in, Lu Qing said: "Baki Armed Forces, 24th Street, Area C."
"Twelve yuan, miss, are you going to buy weapons?" said the uncle sitting in the driver's seat.
"Well, you have to defend yourself after all." Lu Qing replied.
She didn't really mind whether she had to talk while riding in the car. If the driver wanted to talk, there was no problem in chatting.
"Self-defense, that's really important. The people below have become more and more arrogant recently. Many people in our industry have been robbed." The driver said to Lu Qing while driving the car skillfully:
"What's the point of robbing us? We don't have much money on us. I heard that many people don't want to pay, so they rob us."
"Those who were lucky were just robbed of their money. Those who were not lucky were injured. Not to mention the ones who were injured. If the car was damaged in any way, the company would have to pay compensation."
"It's just too bad."
"No one cares?" Lu Qing asked curiously.
"How could anyone take care of it?" The driver complained somewhat after hearing Lu Qing's words:
"Anyway, those who rob taxis are not ruthless characters, and they don't dare to kill people. The money they robbed basically causes no loss to the company, but if the car is damaged, the company can still get compensation from the lessor."
"This is money for them, so how can they take care of it? And the police will not respond to this kind of incident that does not involve human lives or company capital."
Lu Qing listened quietly to the taxi driver's words, and her distorted understanding of the world became more profound.
And while she was quietly listening to the taxi driver's complaints, there was a sudden commotion in the street in the distance.
Violent gunshots were heard on the street. After the driver saw clearly what was happening in the distance, his expression became a little nervous. He whispered:
