The son-in-law of Mr. Hachishaku

Chapter 194 Go to Ritz and watch the best movies!
V has just been in Night City for about half a year. Although he is not as famous as a big name, he is still somewhat famous.

He, Jack, and a network hacker named T-Bug formed a three-person gang.

Mainly doing shady business.

Mercenaries, bounty hunters, killers, private detectives, they will do anything as long as the bottom line is not involved and they can make money.

But if you ask him, why did he come to Night City?Money, fame?
He will answer you: "You think I live with my head in my belt every day just for this shit? Then you are really a fool!"

A few days ago, he and Jack took a job at the middleman and rescued someone from the scavengers.

During the process, the rescued person's biological signals must be monitored and connected to the other party's neural socket.

Maybe it was because the other party played too much, or maybe the scavenger had tampered with his mind. In short, he was accidentally infected with an Internet virus.

I had a splitting headache, nausea, and was allergic to bright light.

So come to Laowei to have a look.

Along the way, strengthen yourself and decorate your new guy.

The reason was that Night City's famous middleman [Dexter Deshawn] gave their small group a commission, which was a hugely profitable job.

V doesn't want to fall behind at critical moments due to lack of strength and drag down his partners.

Lao Wei recommended him the best product on hand: Qilu Si Optical Eyes.

Of course, the price and quality are equally excellent, a full 21000.

But don’t think this price is not high. You know, according to statistics, the average lifetime income of an ordinary resident in Night City is 4327 euros.

In other words, a prosthetic eye that is not of the highest quality costs nearly five people’s lifetime income.

Although V is engaged in a dangerous business with high risks and high rewards, he is still a poor boy.

So in the end you have to pay the bill with your face, commonly known as credit.

"Okay, Lao Wei, after I finish this big job, I will give you the money, including the principal and interest. I won't default on the debt."

It could be seen that the two of them had a good relationship. Lao Wei just said: "It won't happen again." Then he let V leave with his new prosthetic eyes.

After today's only guest left, Li Ang stood next to him with a strange expression:

"Victor Clinic's turnover today is negative 21000 yuan!"

“A record high!”

"I'm not talking about Lao Wei. With your business philosophy, the clinic will be closed down soon. How about we go begging on the street together?"

The prosthetic doctor who was packing up the surgical tools glanced at him and said, "If you stop making sarcastic remarks, you can go beg for food now."

Li Ang smacked his lips: "We are both owed money, so the difference in treatment is a bit obvious, boss."

Lao Wei did not answer, but asked another matter: "Did you ask Misty to help you find a job?"

Then he took out his wallet, pulled out a few crumpled banknotes and handed them to him: "Go buy a mobile phone. You can't survive even a second without the Internet in Night City."

"And if you encounter something outside, you can contact us easily."

A few days ago, he said he would not be paid, but today he will pay living expenses. The best prosthetic doctor in Watson District showed his cold-faced and soft-hearted side again.

"The boss is awesome!" Li Ang gave a thumbs up sincerely: "Small investment brings big returns, we will not let you down in the future!"

Lao Wei put away his much thinner wallet: "Save it, kid, as long as you don't get your head shot off by gangsters while walking on the road one day, I will burn it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered that Li Ang's parents died in a gang conflict, so he immediately changed the topic.

"I'll give you an hour off to buy a mobile phone. Don't be an eyesore in front of me."

"Just remember to buy a second-hand one. Mention my name and they won't trick you."

Li Ang rubbed the banknotes with the largest denomination of 10 in his hand: "This little money is not enough to buy new ones."

Then he ran out of the clinic before the boss got angry.

"Bastard." Lao Wei smiled and shook his head, turned on the computer and watched the boxing match.

After leaving the clinic, Li Ang walked up the steps a few meters and petted the cat before entering Misty's shop.

She is currently providing psychological counseling, or meditation training, to her boyfriend.

"Your heart chakra seems a little out of balance, honey, I can help you release it, but you have to be careful about the negative energy field and avoid red, any red."

And Jack was lying comfortably on a massage chair, enjoying his girlfriend's services.

As the result was getting better, Misty stopped guiding her: "Leon, where are you going in such a hurry?"

"The black-hearted boss is finally willing to pay his employees, let's go out and have fun!" Li Ang responded and walked quickly out the door: "I won't disturb you anymore, see you later~"

"Okay, come back soon." Misty smiled and looked away, but as soon as she turned her head, she met her boyfriend's resentful eyes.

"Why don't I just have a good face? When I make a lot of money, the first thing I will do is have plastic surgery!"

Misty was amused by her boyfriend's pitiful tone: "You are so jealous, but I feel pity for him and treat him like a younger brother."

"Besides, I like your face."

When the young couple began to be affectionate again, Li Ang had already arrived at a second-hand technology product store.

It’s not that new products are unaffordable, but second-hand ones are more cost-effective.

He is actually a rich man.

Don’t forget that Romania, where the valley is located, is a member of the European Union, and my wife cannot be said to be as rich as the country, but she can also be said to be extremely wealthy.

Night City again uses the Euro as its main currency.

The currencies of the two worlds are common, and Li Ang can completely eat soft rice.

But he doesn't, he just wants to get along with everyone as an ordinary person, and finally spend his money wisely.

About half an hour later, Li Ang came out of the store.

In addition to a brand new smartphone in his pocket, there is also a device similar to the combat power detector in "Dragon Ball" on his left eye.

It can replace most of the functions of a brain-computer interface. It is expensive, but worth the money.

Precisely because he was valuable enough, he was targeted as soon as he came out. There was nothing he could do about it, the people of Night City were so simple and honest.

Judging from the tattoos and Asian faces on several gangsters, they are undoubtedly the Tiger Claw gang that is often active in the Watson area.

Li Ang didn't have time to deal with these minions for the time being, because as soon as he logged into the Night City network with his ID, he received a new email.

[Mr. Li Ang, congratulations on passing the preliminary selection for our company’s position! ]
[Please go to the Human Resources Department on the 17th floor of the Watson District - Arasaka Beach South - Kanbi Building at [-] a.m. tomorrow for the second round of interviews]
"Old boy Arasaka, you are really discerning!"

Li Ang, who was in a happy mood, put away his mobile phone and prepared to deal with the few followers behind him before getting down to business.

Looking for a dirty, narrow and unpassed alley, he stopped.

At the same time, several gang members with colorful hair, strange clothes, and weapons blocked the alley.

The little leader among them approached Li Ang with a step that he didn't recognize his relatives, and his mouth was full of rotten teeth, which was disgusting:
"Is this the grave you chose for yourself? You really don't have a good sense."

"Okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Just hand over your valuables."

However, the next second, his chosen prey suddenly changed from a harmless little sheep to a vicious wolf that preys on humans.

The dark wings covered the sky and the sun, completely losing the light in the already dark alley.

The terrifying figure stood tall and tall, like the legendary demon god of destruction.

Fangs and claws, tentacles dancing wildly, a bright golden crown looming in the endless darkness.

After a few shrill screams, the alley returned to its former tranquility.

Li Ang walked out of the alley slowly, straightened his collar, and then spit out an unknown metal object from his mouth.

"If you put all kinds of rubbish on yourself, your eyesight won't be much better."

I looked at the time and saw that there were still 2 minutes left before the vacation given by Lao Wei ended.

The left side was the way back to the clinic, but he decisively chose the right side.

As the core of the cyber world, Night City has many fun and novel things, and [Mewtwo Experience] is definitely one of the most not to be missed.

So, whoever falls in love with whom in this bad class, Li Ang is going to watch a movie!
After walking a few hundred meters along the street, even out of the Kabuki District, he arrived at the destination of his trip - the Ritz Bar.

Here is a Mewtwo experience expert who is regarded as the top in the entire Night City.

Liz's opening hours were from [-]pm to [-]am the next morning. Li Ang came a little early, so he ran to a food stall not far away and ordered a portion of synthetic cheap Chinese fried noodles to fill his stomach. ,kill time.

After chatting with the pretty boss lady for a while, I finished the noodles in my hand.

The time is just right.

In front of the bar, the colorful neon lights were on. Under the dazzling white 'Ritz' sign, stood a young lady with two round hair and cool clothes.

She said hello in advance before she even got close.

"You're here early enough, handsome brother, do you want to go inside to relieve the heat?"

Feeling the enthusiasm, Li Ang couldn't find any reason to refuse: "Okay, I hope the standard of the girls here is as high as yours." The slightly frivolous answer did not make Miss Ballhead feel unhappy, because this is what she does. On the contrary She took it as a compliment.

"Of course, there are more girls prettier than me in there, and you won't find anyone better than Liz in the entire Watson District!"

"But before going in, I have to explain the rules to you first."

"No stealing photos, no taking drugs, no touching. If you like whoever you want, order it from the list and then find an empty box."

Li Ang interrupted her tirade: "I know the rules."

"Uh-huh, that's good, let's go in." The young lady nodded and got out of the way: "Have fun."

As a result, just as Li Ang was about to take a step, she thrust another business card into her hand.

"If you are desperate in the future, just call the number above. You have a good talent. I hope you have the opportunity to become a family."

Li Ang glanced at the business card in his hand quite speechlessly: "I hope that day won't come to me."

He is just here to consume and does not want to become a special worker.

"Who knows for sure, anything can happen in Night City." The young lady patted his butt and winked at him: "Hurry in, my dear, the girls have been waiting for it for a long time. ”

Li Ang avoided the wolf-like young lady and quickly walked into the bar.

Boys should protect themselves even if they are alone outside.

At this time, Liz had already had a lot of guests, spread out on the dance floor and in the booths. Everyone had something like VR glasses hanging on their head or neck.

Dynamic music and colorful spotlights make the environment a bit noisy.

Even though the exhaust fan is working hard, the air mixed with various smells is still a bit turbid.

Li Ang rubbed his nose and walked straight to the bar opposite the dance floor.

He found an empty seat and sat down, raised his hand and snapped his fingers: "A glass of vodka and coke, Madeo, please add more ice."

A male bartender wearing a blue floral shirt came over.

"Guest, do you know me? Judging from my appearance, this should be your first time here."

Li Ang shook the swivel chair under his butt and said in a relaxed tone: "I know a lot of people, my friend. Don't waste time, go and get what I want. By the way, I want two drinks."

Madeo had seen all kinds of guests, so he didn't take it to heart that he recognized him.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Not long after, two bullet cups filled with light blue liquid appeared in front of Li Ang.

He moved one of the glasses to the right.

"David Martinez."

"?" The girl sitting on the right looked confused.

"Let me tell you the name of the wine." Li Ang turned to look into the girl's eyes: "We are destined to meet each other. Isn't it too much to buy you a drink?"

"Thank you." The girl simply picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Li Ang stretched out his hand: "Hello, Li Ang."

The girl crossed her arms and remained unmoved: "Judy, Judy Alvarez, I don't need to shake hands, and your wine doesn't taste good."

"Really?" Li Ang drank the wine he ordered.

The girl in front of him is the most beautiful girl he has seen since he entered this world. She has fair skin and delicate features. She is wearing a gray vest and a black denim jumpsuit.

Except for the green-pink gradient hairstyle, which looks a little uncomfortable, the rest is in line with his aesthetics.

What Li Ang likes most is the tattoo on her left arm - the ghost in the shell.

[Ghost in the Shell]
Or it can also be translated as "Ghost in the Shell".

"You're right, it doesn't taste very good."

The girl named Judy couldn't help laughing: "It turns out that you haven't even drank before, yet you dare to invite me to drink."

"Life is about trying." Li Ang fiddled with the empty glass on the bar: "You will never know whether it is good or bad unless you drink it yourself."

Judy pushed the empty glass in her hand back to him: "I've tried it, but it doesn't fit."

"What a pity." Li Ang, with a sad expression, called to the bartender again: "Please give me a big cup of coke with more ice."

Watching the bartender leave, Judy smiled again and said, "You don't want to invite me this time?"

Li Ang said matter-of-factly: "You have declined me tactfully. If you continue to bet, you will definitely lose money. Besides, we don't have enough funds this time. We will do it next time!"

Judy thought the man in front of her was quite interesting: "Madeo, two glasses of Coke, with more ice!"

"I'm here to treat you this time." She turned to the man and said.

At this time, a charming lady with short blue hair, a mink collar fur coat, and an expensive-looking lady's handbag walked up behind them.

"Why don't you buy me a drink too, Judy?"

As soon as she arrived, she stood between the two of them and put her arm on Judy's shoulder, as if to declare her sovereignty.

"A new friend?"

Judy nodded first, then shook her head: "Not really friends, we just met, but we got along quite well."

"Yeah" the blue-haired woman responded, without any special emotion.

Then he stretched out his hand towards Li Ang: "Hello, Evelyn Parker, Judy's girlfriend, of course I am also her girlfriend."

"This is your first time. Do you need me to introduce you to some girls?"

"That's not necessary." Li Ang and Evelin's hands separated as soon as they touched.

He actually knew very well that although Judy was a lesbian, they were not in a relationship. Evelin said this to protect Judy, fearing that her good friend would be deceived.

At the same time, it also implies that the famous beauty already has a master. If he just wants to hunt for beauty, it is best to find someone else.

A smart woman, sleek and sophisticated, beautiful but also cunning, a flower with thorns.

Li Ang thought to himself, with a polite smile on his face, looking like a sunny and cheerful boy: "My name is Li Ang. I just came to Night City not long ago, and I am currently doing odd jobs at a nearby clinic."

Evelin looked at him carefully: "Oh, oh, I'm not a police officer, and I don't check the household registration. There is no need to tell me so clearly."

"Evelyn." Judy gently pushed her friend's arm to signal her not to be so mean.

"Okay." Evelin dug out a box of women's cigarettes: "It seems that the out-of-town boy is covered today."

"Want a cigarette?" She took out a cigarette and handed it to Li Ang.

After being rejected, he didn't force anything, and just started to puff away: "Madeo, give me a drink of whatever they ordered."

Judy moved to the right and asked her to sit down: "Why are you free to come to the bar today?"

Evelin, who was a little thirsty, glanced at the empty glasses on the bar and found that there was nothing to quench her thirst: "I made an appointment with someone to discuss something."

"Remember what I told you about the original Mewtwo film? I need help from you, an expert."

Judy obviously listened to her words: "Of course, when, now?"

"There's no rush." ​​Evelin looked at the wine glass coming towards them: "Let me moisten my throat first and wait for someone by the way."

"Wait, why do you want this, kids?"

"Minors are not allowed in the bar."

She looked at the three large glasses of fizzy Coke in front of her, puzzled.

Li Ang, who finally had a chance to speak, picked up one of the glasses: "Wine can't quench your thirst at critical moments, but it can."

"Cheers, to Sister Liz!"

Judy also raised her glass: "Cheers to our new friends!"

"Okay." Evelin reluctantly picked up the last glass: "Wish me success!"

Putting down the Coke cup that was half missing, she couldn't help but draw a line: "If this happens when meeting guests later, I will definitely cause trouble for both of you."

Ps1: Regarding the average salary of Night City residents: The note on the Lady's Sword of Lake Renfield states that its price is 52 times the lifetime income of an average resident.

And its price is: 22.5 euros.

Ps2: Regarding why not write the spin-off series "Edge Walker": the time span is too long, a whole year. Besides, this book is a game fan, so it must be based on the main game. The same goes for other game copies. I only write about the main body and DLC. , official novels, spin-off dramas, and comics cannot be written.

Ps3: Regarding male V and female V: Actually, I wanted to write a female V at the beginning, but I was afraid that readers wouldn’t be able to accept it. I didn’t expect that you guys would go further than me.

It's not too late to change, after all, it's just the beginning.

I will leave a comment below this post. If you like the V of which gender you like, the date ends at 24:[-] tomorrow. If the female V gets more likes, I will change it.

Ps4: The above is the number of free words.
