He still didn't say a word - because this is capital.

"Yes, Lucky and I used to belong to the Buckle family."

V nodded, indicating that what Luo Qi said was true.

"Bakr? You left? Why?" Panan asked curiously, "We have never dealt with Bakr, we only know that there is such a family."

"All in all, it's not a good thing." V paused, looked at Luo Qi, and felt an unknown anger in his heart, "Compared to Adekado, some people in the family are just like Snake State, and they are completely untrustworthy."

"Snake State..." Sol pondered for a while, "Their reputation is not good, and we don't know more about it."

Bad reviews?More than a bad reputation?

Luo Qi wanted to complain, but he didn't know the status quo of the Buckle family and Snake State.But since they did those nasty things in the past, there is no reason for them to wash their hands and start a new life now.

"What you said is not unreasonable... Panan and I did have an argument."

Saul became a little more talkative.

Maybe it's the addition of V and Luo Qi's former homeless status, or the truth behind the words, or even a combination of both, his attitude gradually improved.

"Yeah, whose family doesn't quarrel." Panan didn't care about such trivial matters.

"But there's no need to get to the bottom of it," Saul emphasized.

"I think so too." Panan also crossed his arms and counterattacked.

"If you want to come back...everyone welcomes you and waits for you with open arms." Xiang Panan described how everyone in the camp missed her, "but you must restrain yourself, and you can't just do whatever you want first."

Faced with Saul's "grandmother" preaching, Panan felt that his head was getting bigger: "Damn, it started again."

"I'm telling you, little girl. We'll have plenty of time to point fingers at each other." Saul obviously gave up hope that a few words would persuade Panan to change his mind, stood up, and was sore from the beatings of the Chaos Knife Society. Stiff body, "but now...if you don't mind, I want to squint for a while."

"Do you need help?"

Panan looked at his staggering movement with a smile and said.

"Get out." Saul didn't bother to talk to Panan, who was not forgiving, and took two steps slowly, looking at the Adecados distributed in the entire suite, the sadness on his face dissipated a little, "Well... do you know what this storm is called in North Africa?"

"Ha Dabo~"

Sol raised his eyebrows with an ecstatic expression, then turned his head and left, "Damn, this name is so coquettish."

haboobs, dust storms, or "haboobs".

Maybe it is a serious word in people's eyes, but Luo Qi always feels that this uncle whose painting style is very similar to Johnny Silver Hands is the kind of old-fashioned critic who is upright.

boob, refers to the breast-feeding organ of female humans, commonly known as…

Noko.

After being stunned for a long time, Luo Qi realized what kind of cold and dirty joke he was making.

A lewd expression climbed up his face, and he couldn't help laughing.

Student Luo Qi, cold joke resistance—0%!

Just like the "intubation" joke that Jack said back then.

It's a bad joke, it always gets funnier the more you think about it.

Especially looking at Luo Qi who was laughing so hard that he was almost rolling on the ground, Mowell was confused and became dumbfounded.

His low voice infected everyone in the room, V rolled his eyes, then couldn't help covering his mouth, shaking his shoulders, and finally started laughing out loud.

First V, then Panan, then Mitch and Scorpion, and then every Ardecardo warrior.

When Sol was helpless holding on to the door frame, everyone in the house became happy.

"He, you, hahaha... what's going on." Panan felt a little puzzled by this Sol who was a little bit wrong, but at the same time had to admit the comic effect of this burden.

"For Ha Dabo!"

V picked up the wine bottle on the table and took a sip.

"That's right! For Ha Dabo!" Panan took the bottle from his hand, got up, and put it on the table, "Uh...! It's like drinking gasoline!"

"Hahaha, how funny."

Panan looked at V with a wide smile on his face.

And in an unnoticed corner of the room, Roach frantically poked Mowell with a gossip smile.

"What?"

Mowell was a little puzzled, and was pushed and pointed by Luo Qi to turn his gaze to the sofa.

"Watching a good show, hehehe..."

For some reason, seeing his brother and sister flirting together, Luo Qi had the urge to boo.

"I seldom sleep on a place with a roof, but this is the second time with you." Panan leaned close to V's ear and whispered, "I'm on the road day and night, and my buttocks are going to grow together with the seat , I almost forgot the feeling of lying down."

While talking, he looked around the room, worried about being discovered.

But Mowell's implant worked extremely well, and whispering softly could not escape her monitoring.

As soon as the content of the conversation was relayed to Luo Qi, the expressions of the two of them turned into gossip at the same time.

"So? Is this feeling better?" V asked softly without compromising.

"No, it's just different." Panan changed his posture and lay on the sofa lazily and carelessly. "You said, it's not bad to open a small hotel here, right? There are fireplaces, beer... "

"All I need is a calm front desk uncle."

By this time, Panan did not forget to tease Saul.

Maybe it's just a habit, even if the estrangement and conflict between the two are not as serious as imagined, but maybe this has become the unique "family relationship of homeless people" between them.

V said something extremely emotionally intelligent, Luo Qi almost didn't applaud on the spot: "Are you satisfied with your stay, ma'am?"

Before that, he was always worried that V, a stunned young man, would offend the girl with just a few words, and then the ambiguity that hadn't started to develop would be goodbye.But I didn't expect that, unlike Jack's "silly, big black and thick", V has his own "romantic way".

Rangers don't like to play fake games because it makes them feel distrusted.

"Huh? Well, I couldn't be more satisfied." Panan lifted his legs and placed them on V's lap.

"Wow--"

Scorpion made an exaggerated sound of surprise.

Scorpion, who is quieter than most people, did not expect to be interested in this kind of thing.

Then Ardekado's fighters, following his line of sight, also went "Wow".

"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman resting?"

Panan stroked his "wild rock hair", a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"No, they are just envious." V seemed to have really become a handsome waiter, and said politely, "Ma'am, you will definitely feel more comfortable with your shoes off."

"Haha, I've been covered for a whole day, I'm afraid it will affect everyone's health if I take it off."

Panan's joke drew laughter from the crowd.

For homeless people, running around is the main thing.

When V came to Night City back then, when he took off his boots, he almost stunned Luo Qi and Jack into a "fatal system error" on the spot.

"Nonsense, you're so busy today, you should take a good rest." V hit the railway while it was hot, and only LSP Johnny was there to cheer him up.

"Oh? Then how should I rest?" Panan smiled, looking forward to his answer.

On the other side of the room, Mitch and Scorpion squatted in the corner of the wall like two homeless men, like a vicissitudes uncle squatting on the curb smoking a cigarette.

"Tut tsk tsk, wonderful... wonderful..." Mitch shook his head, but his facial features were full of smiles.

"Shouldn't you say - is it nice to be young?" Scorpion hiccupped and swallowed the unpalatable emergency dry food.

"Fuck you, do I look that old?" Mitch is not a person without a sense of humor, he laughed, then touched his hairline, showing a slightly "slightly sad" look, "Well, we're not young anymore."

However, as his eyes turned to another corner, looking at the two people who had almost turned into brown candies, the melancholy on his face became even worse: "I have to admit that I didn't have a vigorous love affair when I was young. It's a pity."

In this room, it is obviously a little dark, huddled in the storm and waiting for the weather to clear again, but the sour smell of love slowly diffuses in the air.

Rocky didn't notice what was going on, but V and Panan made small silent movements.

He yawned, thought for a moment, and pulled Mowell into his arms so he wouldn't fall asleep on the cold ground.

Just now Luo Qi found a small blanket, one of the few overnight tools in the room, and covered her with it.

Mowell tried to struggle, but was held down unreasonably by Roach.

It was just a night of not sleeping well, the days of gun battles and racing in the middle of the night, the speed of life and death, didn't he experience little in Night City?

Luo Qi has an "inexplicable" stubbornness—no matter how much Mowell's prosthetic body has increased her resistance to adversity, whether it's swimming in a glacier or rolling in a snowy mountain.

But tonight, the blanket had to be covered.

"Hmm... did you hear that?" Panan said softly.

"No." V listened carefully for a while, but found nothing unusual.

"Hmm, hmm, the wind is starting to get weaker." Panan pricked up his ears, carefully discerning the faint difference in the wind sound outside the wall.

This is the intuition that belongs only to wanderers.

Half a year in Night City may have dulled V's natural perception as a wanderer, but Luo Qi prefers to believe that he ignored everything else because he focused on Panan.

"Ha Dabo, I don't know, but... listening to the strong wind whizzing past on the grassland, I must not be able to sleep... I can't even close my eyes."

The drowsiness surged up little by little, like the waterline invading the beach at high tide.

Panan turned over and curled up in the corner of the sofa.

It's not like anywhere else.

Whether it's a seat in a car, a cave or a field, it's just a place for her to close her eyes and rest for a night.

Often even less than a night's rest, only a few hours, you have to go on the road again.

Being able to rest on an old, hard, dirty sofa is already a rare experience.

She tossed and turned for a while, obviously very sleepy, but she was reluctant to just fall asleep like this.

"Let's chat," Panan suggested.

"Chat, okay, what are we talking about?"

V also slept awkwardly, and yawned long and long.

"Let's talk about Chaos Swordsmanship, Night City, mercenaries...you can talk about anything." Panan said in a daze, "Hurry up, I'm about to fall asleep."

"Go to bed then, there is no charge here." V joked.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up." Panan urged with the last of his strength.

"Well, let me think about it." V was also extremely sleepy, but he still moved his head hard after hearing the words, "Oh, I remembered, I found it when I was looking at the computer just now."

"In that cement factory, the ghosts colluded with the Chaos Knife Society to disable all the alarm devices."

"Really? There's still such a thing?" Luo Qi said nonchalantly, "But, these days, it's not uncommon for you to say that he sold his mother for money."

"That's true." Mitch said he had heard about the "customs" of the city people.

"Hey, Lucky, why don't you come over and give you half of the sofa?" V looked at himself, then at his friends who were looking for a place to sleep in every corner of the room, and finally at Luo Qi, and asked.

Those who have a place to sleep have no place to cover, and those who have a place to sleep have no place to sleep.

All you need is a roll of cardboard boxes or other things, a pad of wood or something, and a curtain to wrap around the body.Such a difficult situation seems to bring V back to the most difficult days in the Barker family.

At that time, although they were struggling, he and Luo Qi still had a big family with one heart.

"..."

There was no reply, and the room gradually became quiet. The night chat that had just begun was forced to end before it officially started.

"Shh, he's already asleep..."

Mowell, lying in Rocky's arms, wrapped in a blanket but with his eyes wide open, spoke softly.

She raised her head slightly, looked at Luo Qi's eyes that she didn't know when to close, and wanted to get up.

If you press it on your body all night, your body will go numb.

"Well... what's wrong?"

With a slight movement, Luo Qi woke up, but his eyes were almost completely closed.
