Somewhere in the wilderness, the sun is shining brightly on the earth, hot and dry.
"Be careful! V."
Luo Qi stood under the antenna tower, raised his head and squinted his eyes, watching V climbing up the tens of meters high iron tower by climbing the rusty ladder and walkway.The sunlight passing through the iron tower made him unable to open his eyes, and he had to find a backlight angle to see V's movements clearly.
"Sweet palm!! Clam clatter——!!"
A piece of iron skin screamed and was thrown from the tower by V. Although it was on the other side of the tower, it still surprised him.
Connected to the antenna of the iron tower, V took the small communicator and gestured OK to Luo Qi from a distance.
So Luo Qi played with the stones for a few minutes below.
It wasn't until V came down neatly from the top that his feet landed on the ground, the expression on his face finally stretched, and a smile appeared: "I contacted William, and he told me that the client is at a nearby farm."
Luo Qi still has a little impression of this part of the story.Probably V's Bakker family joined Snake State, but V and the group of insidious and cunning guys in Snake State couldn't get along, so they broke up completely and decided to take his brother Luo Qi out to do it himself.
William McCoy, Buckle's man, that's a nice tough fellow.Although V left the family, which is considered an act of betrayal in the homeless community, he still secretly helped.
Luo Qi didn't know whether V still had an intersection with the homeless family, but at least he remembered the name.
In Night City, in America in 2077, everything is possible—even immortality.
Only one true heart is hard to find.
V's little broken car is driving on the wasteland south of Night City. In the distance are low hills with uneven textures under the sun. The roar of the engine is like a large motorcycle, and the atmosphere of wasteland is blowing. come.
The wanderers call this area "Dry Water Creek".
Maybe there used to be a water system whose name was forgotten, but now, under the erosion of wind and sand, time has worn away the traces of the riverbed, making this desolate suburb even more desolate.
A cactus taller than a person, a huge billboard that is rusted and blurred, and a mouthful of sand.
blah blah blah...
Rocky wiped the corner of his mouth.
The first knowledge point of survival in the wild: don’t open your mouth when driving on the wilderness, unless your dinner today is sand.
"Is it there? A dilapidated iron house?" V steered the steering wheel, and stopped in front of this once habitable building. "It's marked like this on the navigation."
"Lucky, you stay in the car, I'll go." V looked at Luo Qi with the feeling of a parent who "told the child to stay in the car and not run around".
"I may be injured, but I'm not disabled." Luo Qi smiled and pressed V to stop his hand, "Besides, I also want to meet... this client."
"But..." V hesitated, looked into Luo Qi's eyes, and said helplessly, "Okay, if you insist."
Entering the house, the two of them stepped on the weathered plastic floor with a crackling sound.
On the sofa, a burly man in a jacket stepped on the box, and when he saw V coming, he complained to himself.
"I'm so poor that I'm about to farm. Ah, you must have come to find me, right?"
Luo Qi got out from behind V, showing the expression of finding the big baby: "Hey, look what I found, Jack Wells!"
"You know me?"
Jack raised his eyebrows, "It's Jackie, not Jack. por favor (Spanish: please)."
"I heard that you want me to transport some goods?" V felt a little strange about Luo Qi's excitement.
In his opinion, this tall and strong man was a bit silly trying to pretend.
"Well, in our place...before we talk about business, we have to have a heart-to-heart talk. It's a custom...or it's polite, understand?"
Jack said ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
V grinned at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "You really value rules."
"You have to have some backbone, brother. When everything is taken away from you, at least this is left." Jack sighed.
"Okay, let's start with you first." V said.
Listening to their exchange with a smile on the side, Luo Qi could feel a bit of relief from the change in his tone, and there was a happy smirk on his face—this is a real V and Jack!
Dealing with a big fool is much more pleasant than playing tricks, and V's posture is also relatively relaxed.
Holding a pistol, Jack said naturally, "The natives of Night City all shed Heywood's blood."
Heywood, what a name--one of the high-risk areas for gang fighting.
Even those who don't know, listening to Stanley's passionate tone on the radio every day, the ears are almost growing calluses.
"I've never been to Night City, it doesn't mean anything to me." V was not impressed.
Jack was taken aback, and explained: "Then imagine a place where everyone is like brothers and sisters, or distant cousins, at least."
On this, it is difficult for Luo Qi to fully agree.
As long as it's gangsters, it's hard to have a few good guys - Jack is a rare species.
However, Jack left the gang many years ago to work alone, dreaming of becoming a famous big shot in Night City, and became a low-level mercenary for ideals and money, working hard in this city of dreams.
If placed in the western era, Jack might become a well-known cowboy or sheriff; in Chinese martial arts novels, he would be a knight with a sword; Is a nameless mercenary.
"Ha, I seem to understand. I don't necessarily like each other much, but they are all my family."
V smiled, he also experienced the sense of belonging to the family.
This is one of the few precious emotions left in this indifferent age. Even if it is not solid and not entirely true, it can at least comfort people.
It's like a dark room, cold and lonely, but at least there is a candle that emits a faint light.
Seeing that V understood what he meant, Jack continued with satisfaction: "Yes, Heywood is like that. Besides, everyone brings guys."
Free Millican, shoot every day, yay.
Luo Qi complained silently in his heart.
"Let's put it this way." V glanced at Luo Qi, "Our place is also a Heywood."
"Then the three of us will probably be on the right track." Jack pointed at V and Luo Qi, as if he had found a fellow.
"More sincerity, less routine." Luo Qi said quietly.
"Yes, yes, Así es (yes)." Jack nodded repeatedly.
He kicked the box he was stepping on, "Here, goods."
Are you using goods as a stepping stone for your feelings?
Luo Qi wanted to complain a little, but there was a living thing in there.
"What's inside?" Of course V didn't know, and asked.
"You can sleep well if you don't know. So I don't want to know, which is a good thing," Jack said.
But V asked back in surprise: "You don't know what we are smuggling? These things are stolen from the company."
"Steal?" Jack laughed, "Heh... a certain dick lost it, and was picked up by another dick, round after round, and now it's here. What's it called, it seems to be the butterfly effect."
"That's really a long adventure." Luo Qi said, "Why, no one came to find these boxes?"
"It's okay even if they look for it—unless they can find it before the border crossing, you understand?" Jack waved his hand nonchalantly.
Luo Qi squatted down, leaned his head and looked at the packaging outside the box.
The alloy box, the blurry sign on it can't be seen clearly, and the advertisement is still playing on the small display screen. It is a kind of energy food similar to Snickers.
DO NOT OPEN.
Only such a line is still clear.
"Come on, load the truck," V said, accepting the reality.
What else could he do, no matter what the goods were, they were all on hand, just shipped them over.
Jack said "Hey", picked up the box with both hands, and walked out the door.
"I almost thought you let me go."
"I'm delayed by something. And you're not so easy to find." V didn't tell Jack the fact that the car was in trouble, and now the two of them are just employed, and they are far from close to each other. At best, they have a good impression.
Jack was helpless: "Isn't this low-key. That idiot sheriff is a problem at first sight."
"That's right." Regarding this point, V agreed without hesitation, obviously he was very angry just now.
Jack snorted and put the box into the back of the car.
The three of them got into the car, and the door slammed shut.
For some reason, Luo Qi suddenly had a feeling of starting to fight monsters, and the adventure story began.
The radio was boasting about military technology, and also praised the employees who had been squeezed out of their surplus value.
The hypocrisy is disgusting, but Luo Qi listened with relish, it was really fresh.
"Have you prepared the declaration form for customs clearance?" V asked.
"Must be! Didn't the middleman send you an order?" Jack said with certainty.
"He sent."
"Listen friend, we're all professionals, aren't we?"
Luo Qi was sitting in the back seat, watching Jack, a "novice smuggler", pretending to be a senior, felt a little funny.
Oh no, adding him is two.
Now Luo Qi is not sitting behind the screen, but in the back seat of this car.
This means that he can't run away even if something happens, let alone a chance to do it all over again.
The smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared suddenly.
"Uh, ah, have you run this kind of smuggling line before?" Jack said hesitantly.
"What, are you nervous?" V said calmly.
"Me? Ja, por favor (ha, please)." Jack chuckled, then admitted, "Well, maybe a little."
Luo Qi clutched his forehead, and his heart began to beat faster again.
It's over, Mengxin passes the level, and later he will be chased and bitten by military technology, just your mother is outrageous.
How did I forget this!
Now he doesn't dislike the old-fashioned setting of the system that must be brought in crossing. He only hopes that God can quickly send a "Wind Spirit Moon Shadow" or something else, and it doesn't matter if it ruins the experience——"If you die, can you read the file?" "Who dares to verify such a thing with his life.
It's a pity that God guessed that there was no VPN for cross-server chat. Luo Qi didn't get any response from his prayers, and there was no "novice gift package" lying there quietly waiting for him to open it. He was too poor to be a traverser.
As the city approaches, more and more things start to appear on the side of the road.
There are billboards marked "CHOOH2", there are blazing tires, and there are even a few shops that are located in the garbage dump with closed doors and don't know what to do.
Ahead is the border of Night City, and many people in military uniforms appeared behind the concrete piles.
"Who are these people?" Luo Qi asked.
"Huh? Ha, what are you talking about?" Jack was stunned for a moment, then said guiltily, "The border guards of NCPD."
NCPD, Night City Police Department, Night City Police, the least police-like police in the world.
"Hey, we're going to cross the border soon, what should we do?" Jack asked, clutching his thigh nervously.
"Nothing to do. They scanned us and checked the documents." V said helplessly, "I will be responsible for telling them when the time comes."
The vehicle slowly drives into the border channel and enters a checkpoint called "customs declaration".
Luo Qi looked at the guard with the rifle in front of him, swallowed, and his eyes fell firmly on the cold metal——
That thing is a real thing that can kill people. It is not far in front of him now, and this is the first time he has seen the real thing.
The heart pounded uncontrollably and accelerated.He found that the muscles in his hands and feet were a little stiff and overly tense.
The vehicle stopped in front of the checkpoint, and the dog head ornament above the steering wheel swayed. Compared with the guards outside the car, the vicious-looking Q version of the vicious dog turned out to be cute.
"Please drive your vehicle to the inspection area."
A car in front drove away, the roadblock was lowered, and the voice on the radio sounded, seeming a little impatient.
"Please remain in the vehicle, security checks will begin shortly."
Luo Qi exhaled slowly, and Jack and V looked at each other: "Why do I feel like I'm going to take a break..."
"If you're nervous, they'll see it, you know." V instructed, "Take a deep breath, relax, and also, give me the customs declaration form, they'll have to read it then."
Jack took out a piece of black hard plastic paper and handed it to V.
