Cyberpunk 2074: Shadows of the Past

Chapter 8 Accident
In Night City, you never know which will come first, the accident or tomorrow.

Westbrook, the most famous gold-selling cave in Night City.Different from the condescending and aggressive civic center dominated by the new militarism, in Westbrook, the new kitschism is the mainstream, as long as there is money in the pocket, it will not refuse anyone from any class.

Rich people with a lot of money spend their money like water here. The many casinos and illegal brothels in Japan Street and the luxury villas in North Oak District are like a spider web covering the sky and the sun, catching unimaginable wealth.

The middle class craves a place in a Charter Hill apartment complex, even if it means years and years of working themselves out.

The most impoverished people in Night City will also indulge in Westbrook's false luxury and wealth, dreaming of being able to use their last euro to turn over in the casinos of Japan Street and dream of making a fortune.

The prosperity and madness of Westbrook is the epitome of the whole Night City, where heaven and hell meet in the world, and a terrifying and brutal monster is born.

Xita Castei just wanted to give the monster a middle finger, and then slammed the muzzle of the kinetic pistol into its nipples.

"F*ck, the Tiger Claw Gang is crazy!" Xi Tan had just walked out of the prosthetic doctor's studio when she was almost headshot by a stray bullet. Thanks to Yawei's timely reminder, she narrowly escaped death.

The Tiger Claw Gang is the largest violent gang in Westbrook's Japan Street. Its logo is a variety of glowing Japanese ghosts tattooed on the implanted high-quality imitation wear-resistant leather.Compared with guns, these perverted lunatics are more intoxicated by the bloody pleasure of cutting flesh with a sword.They like to ride motorcycles at high speeds on the roads with dense traffic, pursuing the ultimate enjoyment of adrenaline secreted between life and death. It can be said that 60.00% of the traffic accidents in Night City are caused by these idiots who are racing illegally everywhere. of.

Violence, cruelty, and madness are the background colors of the Tiger Claw Gang. They are really disgusting like hell's evil spirits.

It's a pity that today they bumped into an iron plate and provoked a ruthless stubble that they should never have provoked.

It was the first time that Yawei had such strong human emotions. He felt as if his whole body was burning, and a feeling that he had never felt erupted from the bottom of his heart.

A stray bullet flew past Xita Castei's hair. Before that, he had never imagined losing her.

"Hey...Yahweh, are you okay?" Xita wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand. The female mercenary who had been struggling in Night City for several months was not so concerned about the fact that she almost died. Sensitive, but the situation of Yawei seems to be not good, his illusory figure is shaking violently.

"I'm fine, Xita..." Yawei checked back and forth hundreds of times with the biometric scan, and confirmed that Xita was fine, but his anger didn't diminish in the slightest.

"Close your eyes, Xita..." He leaned close to Xita's ear, and covered her newly-worn Crossroads Prosthetic Eye Type 2 with his hands.

He also closed his eyes, and the real hell fell.

Dozens of Tiger Claw gang members who were exchanging fire with someone suddenly stopped moving.

The limbs are not in control, the installed prosthetic body and flesh all fall off automatically, the unimaginable pain is enough to destroy anyone's sanity, but they just opened their mouths in vain, bursting out from the depths of their souls. , They clearly feel that they are going to die a little bit.In the end, leaving their mutilated corpses, they knelt and surrendered humbly.

The fighting stopped suddenly, because one side had been wiped out.

"What's wrong with you, Yawei?" Xita closed her eyes obediently, feeling the surroundings suddenly quiet. She was a little worried about what happened to Yawei. Could it be that the four-phase transmission Ripple 3 network access cabin just installed is not feeling well? Match, had an impact on him?
"I'm fine, Xita," Yawei briefly dealt with the scene, so as not to cause a psychological shadow on her, "you can open your eyes now."

"I*!" Xita just opened his eyes, and was shocked by dozens of charred corpses that were almost unrecognizable, "What happened just now, why are they all charred?"

Yawei thought for a few seconds, "I controlled one of the guys. I didn't expect that there was a fire bomb hidden in his crotch, and it turned out..."

Xi Tan gave him a blank look without a word, and she doesn't even know how to lie, so when he turns into a human and falls in love, won't he be wiped out by bad women.

"Fortunately, I'm a good woman." She smiled and patted herself on the shoulder without asking.

Xita Kasdei is such an unpredictable woman.

Yawei was confused and didn't continue to entangle Xita's strange brain circuit, "There are two people in front, a man and a woman, not from the Tiger Claw Gang." He reminded in a low voice.

"Dios mío! (Spanish: My God), it's really saved!" A burly man dressed in a typical Valentino gang came not far away, "My name is Jack, Jack Wells, sister, thank you Come to the rescue."

Xi Tan politely shook hands with Jack Wells briefly, and looked curiously at the heroic short-haired woman next to Jack.

"My name is V." The short-haired woman introduced herself succinctly.

Yawei glanced back and forth between the two of them, and after confirming that there was no threat, he breathed a sigh of relief.Xita started talking with the two of them carelessly.

V and Jack also met not long ago.As a company employee who joined Arasaka Company not long ago, on the way home one day, V happened to encounter gang members fighting on the street, and was almost affected. Fortunately, the warm-hearted Jack Wells had just finished the task, and when the road was rough, he offered his help. save.

After coming and going, the relationship between the two became familiar.Today, in order to celebrate V's successful passing of the Arasaka counterintelligence department's audit, Jack planned to take V to Japan Town for a drink of sake, but his beloved motorcycle was targeted by the Tiger Claws, and a fight broke out if there was any disagreement.

"In this case, why don't we go to the afterlife together, I know Rogge well," Xita jumped up again, bragging about himself with a smile.

"Sin problemas (Spanish: no problem)," Jack nodded and gave a thumbs up, "With your strength, sister, you will definitely be famous in the next life."

"Okay!" V also nodded in affirmation, "Take my car." She pointed to the Tingwei McKinac parked not far away - kitsch style, modern tones, exquisite workmanship, and exquisite materials.

Xi Tan was speechless secretly, as expected of a senior employee of a top company, the car alone was so much higher than her.

Yawei looked at Xita's side face silently, and shook his head slightly.He didn't intend to hide his strength from Xita, but he just didn't want to burden her.

It's fine now, he thought, and followed V and Jack into the car, sitting in the back seat with Shita.

"Yahwei..." Xita turned her head to look at his side face, with her left hand spread out on the seat.

Yawei smiled silently, and tacitly put his right hand on it, letting his and her hands overlap.

　Does anyone know how to post pictures?I will post the female V I pinched for reference
