Start in Night City

In the end, only Su Xiao, a teetotaler, and Lucy, a casual drinker, were left.

As the only person still awake, Su Xiao volunteered and took on the responsibility of sending V and Lucy home.

Originally, Lidya Su wanted to try it, but the new car they bought for her was not good enough.

But a motorcycle cannot seat three people, as that would be too dangerous (especially if one of the three people is drunk and unconscious).

Therefore, Su Xiao still let the motorcycle return to her apartment.

Drive Lucy and V home in your SUV.

He opened the windows and sunroof so that Lucy and V could be more comfortable.

Facing the gentle night breeze, we first drove to Japan Street Apartment.

Watching Lucy go upstairs.

Then, Su Xiao parked the SUV in the parking lot of the super skyscraper in Little Chinatown, and walked into the elevator with drunk V in her arms.

The TV in the elevator was playing "Tonight's Talk".

The guest invited tonight is none other than Jefferson Peralez, who became incompetent because of the Sequoia Mental Hospital incident.

He faced the camera without showing any timidity and talked eloquently.

He also said that in addition to those who were sent in due to "misdiagnosis", they have been sent back to reunite with their families, and patients who really need treatment have also been transferred to the medical center.

He plans to launch a crowdfunding campaign to call on citizens to donate to these mentally ill patients.

He and his wife Elisabeth were willing to lead by example and took the lead in donating one million euros.

Lidya Su smiled.

Without even thinking about it, this must be Elizabeth's handiwork again.

Only Elizabeth, a scheming woman, could come up with this wonderful way to cleverly turn the troubles and burdens that others avoided into improving Jefferson's political capital.

Sure enough, the old saying is true - behind a successful man, stands an unknown woman.

Without Elizabeth, Jefferson would probably be nothing more than a poor, neglected council member in City Hall.

How could he be as high-spirited as he is now?

However, Lidya Su was not disgusted.

There is no such thing as easy in the adult world.

It's not all black and white.

Su Xiao knew that Elizabeth was taking advantage of those poor mental patients.

We also know that Jefferson, an idealist, is by no means as simple as a blank sheet of paper.

but……

In this terrible era, in this terrible city, what else can we do?

At least, Jefferson and Elizabeth's "show" can actually help those mental patients who need help.

This is already more than 95% of the upper class.

"Ding--"

The elevator door opened in response.

Su Xiao used V's key to open her apartment door.

Once inside, close the door with your foot.

Then gently put her on the bed.

and help her take off her shoes.

After finishing her work, Lidya Su wiped a layer of sweat from her forehead.

He looked at V, who smelled of alcohol mixed with body odor, and couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Is wine that delicious?

No matter in the past life or in this life, Su Xiao never drank alcohol.

Of course, cigarettes are also not allowed.

It’s no use even if the King of Heaven comes.

If you think you can't be a friend if you don't drink, then it's okay if you don't become a friend.

Su Xiao poured a glass of water for V and placed it on the bedside table.

Because he heard that drunk people will be very thirsty in the middle of the night.

Placing it on the bedside table ensures that V can reach it within reach.

After that, Lidya Su thought about it again.

He took another trash can and placed it next to the bed.

If she wants to vomit, she doesn't have to vomit on the floor, and she doesn't have to clean up the next day.

After doing this, Su Xiao felt that nothing was missing and was ready to leave.

At this moment, he suddenly felt his clothes being pulled.

He was stunned for a moment.

Turning around, he saw V, who was still drunk and lying on the bed just now. At some point, he had gotten up and was sitting on his knees on the bed.

She grabbed Lidya Su's clothes.

Head lightly

He leaned on Lidya Su's back.

"do not go."

"Okay, then I won't leave."

Su Xiao sat on the edge of the bed, and V knelt on the bed, resting her head gently on his back.

I don't know how long it took to maintain this kind of action.

Su Xiao felt the head leaning on her back slowly sliding down.

He turned around and hugged V, who was sliding down.

I found that the girl was completely asleep now.

He put V back on the bed.

Tuck her into bed.

Lidya Su did not turn on the light.

All the light in the room comes from outside the apartment, and holographic advertisements are played 24 hours a day.

In this dim room, what the girl just said seemed to reappear in Su Xiao's ears again...

Coupled with the smell of alcohol wafting from her body, and a sweet smell...

Lidya Su's heart suddenly felt an impulse that she should do something.

…

In the bathroom.

Su Xiao stood upside down.

Instead of supporting the ground with both hands, use only a few fingers of your right hand to support the weight of the entire body.

"Nine hundred and ninety-seven! Nine hundred and ninety-eight! Nine hundred and ninety-nine! One thousand!"

End handstand.

Su Xiao took a towel and wiped the sweat from his forehead and body.

At this moment, he suddenly and keenly heard the sound of light footsteps, which stopped when he came to the door of the apartment.

No movement

Lidya Su frowned.

what's the situation?

Thief? thief?

The apartment V rented was actually pretty good by ordinary people's standards.

Several NCPD police officers also live in this super skyscraper.

Therefore, there are far fewer burglaries in this super skyscraper than elsewhere.

But less does not mean there is none.

Could it be that because there was no light in the room, the burglar mistakenly thought that no one was home?

If this is the case, then Su Xiao is going to give the thief a big surprise.

Let the other person have a deep understanding of what is meant by "There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell but you rush in."

Su Xiao picked up a large-caliber revolver.

Without making a single sound, he came to the door.

At the same moment he opened the door, he took action like lightning and put the large-caliber revolver on the chin of the uninvited guest.

Two seconds later, Su Xiao put down the gun.

"Why are you here? Can't you sleep at night?"

The person standing outside the door was none other than Lucy.

Chapter 77 At this moment, he is her moon (3K5)

"Want to come in... No, let's go out."

Lidya Su walked out of the room and locked the door.

The lights in the corridor outside flickered on and off, and sparks emitted.

A horror movie atmosphere.

"Can't sleep? Or what?"

Lucy put her hands behind her back and lowered her head.

Her short white hair obscured her face, and I didn't know what she was thinking.

Seeing that she was in a low mood and obviously worried, Lidya Su gently put her hand on her right shoulder: "Come with me, I will take you somewhere."

…

"Ding--"

The maintenance elevator door opens.

"here it is……"

Lucy's eyes widened and she looked around curiously.

"The rooftop of the super skyscraper H10, there are few buildings taller than it in the Night City. Although this is my first time up there, I know that the view from it is really good."

Su Xiao walked out of the maintenance elevator.

A gust of night wind hit us.

Lidya Su is okay.

Lucy was so cold that she sneezed.

"The wind is a bit strong here, please wait."

Su Xiao took off her windbreaker and put it on Lucy.

"Is it still cold?"

Lucy shook her head.

Feeling the warmth coming from the windbreaker jacket, he immediately looked at Lidya Su again.
