Vol 8 Chapter 7: It’s not a coincidence

I'm rushing in the nightclub.
Drivers of Night City, don’t get in the way, OK? I am very busy.
"Can you drive? Insane?"
Give you a middle finger, go to you.
Johnny was happy in the co-pilot, "Yo drink, I didn't expect you to be a road killer."
"No way, I think it's a time saver."
"The same goes for drunks, you have to be careful of pedestrians."
"Why, there is an ethical benchmark in my car? Would you please wear your seat belt?"
"Oh." Johnny deliberately grabbed the seat belt, but he was just an intangible digital ghost, so he scratched the air a few times in vain, and then he pretended to have realized that, "By the way, I never wear a safety Brought it!"
"Look at the way you are nasty, Johnny."
"Do you like it?"
"Seriously, I will see Rogge soon. This is the first time I have dealt with her. Any suggestions?"
There was a series of clear gunshots from the intersection ahead, and the pedestrians on the road stopped consciously. I also stopped the car on the side of the road. After a while, I flew past a modified off-road vehicle of the whirlpool. Gang gangsters leaned out of the car window and shot at the rear.
"Are they shooting or shooting flowers?"
The car rushed over with a bang, and NCPD chased after it.
When the sirens were far away, the pedestrians on the road proceeded calmly.
"A peaceful new day in Night City, isn't it?" Johnny yawned. "V, what do you think now?"
"Thinking? Should I answer a specific answer?"
"Don't play with me, just say what you think."
"Of course I want to find that Herman quickly."
"Find Herman, then, what can you get from him? V, you and I know very well that what we have to face is no longer a problem that can be solved by fighting."
"Johnny."
"Listen, we are on the same boat now, you and me."
"Really? I don't think so."
"No matter what you think, this is the truth. Let's advance and retreat together. In short, no matter what kind of paste is before us..."
"Stop it, you should keep this kind of chicken soup for your heart. For more than 50 years, your chicken soup has been smelly. If you continue to pour it, I will vomit."
"But you can't refuse, V, do you understand what it is? You can't control your ears what you want to hear, because I am not a thing you imagined, me and your car, me and the people around you The same, it's real."
"Yes, you are not a problem that I can solve by fighting and killing, so what I have to do is very simple. Find the designer of the chip, pry out the way to get this thing out of his mouth, and then, Bang, smash this brain-dead thing with one shot, with you."
"V, what was in your mind when you were overtaking?"
"I want to hurry."
"No, what you think is, why don't these people hurry away." Johnny waited a while after saying this.
I didn't make a difference for a while. Maybe he was right. I thought so. At the same time, the green light at the intersection in front of me started to flash, and I speeded up quickly, trying to pass before the red light.
At this moment, the in the co-pilot leaned forward suddenly, blocking my view-this person lay directly in front of my windshield, scared me to step on the brakes.
"You sick? Can you please stop bothering me?"
"Why aren't you in a hurry? You continue to drive and drive away all obstacles. Anyway, don't you have insurance?"
"You're just crazy, what if I hit someone? Are you trying to hurt someone?"
I really want to choke Johnny to death in the car like this, but he is a cunning ghost, he knows I can't do anything to him, and he can really affect me.
"You still have a conscience in your heart, and you have a moral bottom line. It's really touching, V. After knowing so much, you are still willing to abide by the traffic rules. I give you a compliment."
"You go away."
It seems that Johnny doesn't plan to leave. Fortunately, I can connect to the camera on the car with a personal link so that I can see the road clearly. This driving style is not common, but it is considered a professional standard operation.
In the camera, people passing by on the zebra crossing.
"You should kill them. Look, they are all fake. They are all NPCs in the game. It doesn't matter if you hit them to death. Since you can drag them on the street, of course you can also engage in some traffic. Accident, anyway you are so bad, NCPD's straw bag can't help you."
"That's how you want me to die?"
"At the end of the day, you're just persuaded, right? You are crawling in front of this hypocritical world, like a dog, gnashing your teeth while obeying it. I hope it has a large number of adults and can let you go. V, this No, your courage is still too small, it is better to leave it to me, we can make this world freeze!"
"I'm not the little girl who can be thrown on the bed when you say a few nice words, Johnny, want to play tricks with me, you're still early."
"This is an experiment."
"Then I don't accept this experiment."
Afterlife nightclub, this is the second time I have come here in the impression. The gatekeeper remembers me, so let me go directly. I also greeted Claire the bartender, and she heard what happened to me. It was the fact that I was resurrected after being shot, and it was so fascinating in the underground circles of the Night City that even Claire couldn't help but ask.
"Is Roger here?"
"Here, that's the box over there."
In the next life, the laser green slides often have a darker silence than night. Everyone's face seems to be confused. Here, it is not easy to dress too fancy, otherwise it looks like a moldy clown. As the queen of the afterlife, Roger is on her throne of course.
It may be that I came here by accident. A young woman was arguing with her.
This person, this woman, let me briefly introduce: Panan Palmer, a "former wanderer" from Adekado, who left her tribe and chose to work alone in the Night City.
The story with her has to be discussed later.
Let's make a long story short, my conversation with Rogge went smoothly. I got Herman's information from her, and she wanted to talk from me about the night in Chongbi Mansion.
Johnny was happy to help me with this right now. He asked me to ask Roger about the raid on Arasaka Tower.
I am not going to listen to this bitch.
"I have the abilities, but I am not as good as you. If you want me to help, we can talk about business at any time."
"It's kind, I will give you information, and you have to prepare money."
Fifteen thousand, which is really ruthless. I have to pay for this money myself. The hard-earned possessions, before I have time to get myself a new body, I spent it all, and now I have seven euros left in my pocket. , Just enough for my meal.
The money was spent in real money, but it will take a day for Roger to collect information, and I can spend this time freely.
"Hey, do you want to take a job?" The man leaning on the wall waved at me. He didn't know it and thought it was Brother Cereal.
"Okay, it's all right, let's talk about it."
Johnny suddenly appeared next to the man, "Don't you think it is suspicious?" Staring at me with the man. UU reading www. uukanshu. com
Shut up, Johnny.
"Think about it, this world is so all-in-one, you are here, and you happened to meet Roger being scolded by a little girl pointing his nose. Now you have a day to spare, and someone is looking for you to pick up the job, you Don’t you think it’s suspicious? I bet the little girl who was awkward with Roger just now, you will have to deal with her in the future."
"Don't think you are so awesome, Johnny, can't I see this by myself?"
"Then you are doing something, resist!"
"Fight against the air?"
"Admit it, V, you are just a minion bone."
Brother Mai Pian looked at me cautiously, "Hey, you don't have to show your face even if you don't take the job? Why should I give you a bit more commission? If you have something to discuss..."
"Don't you see that I'm in a bad mood? Time, place, and content. Tell me in ten seconds. After half a second, I will punch a hole in your forehead."
