The son-in-law of Mr. Hachishaku

Chapter 209 Panan’s wonderful journey in life

Although Arasaka Company's work style has been criticized in various ways, there is absolutely nothing to say about its efficiency.

27 minutes and 54 seconds later, a white heavy-duty freight truck without any markings stopped steadily next to Li Ang's gangster.

Immediately afterwards, the famous plainclothes Arasaka agent jumped out of the truck and bowed:
"Sir, the people, cars, and goods you want are all here. Please take inventory."

Li Ang raised his chin at Panan and motioned for her to see it herself.

"Unload the truck!" The agent waved his hand, and the truck driver quickly unloaded a dusty and dilapidated Tingwei McNaughty from the carriage.

There were several boxes of goods in the trunk of the car, as well as a person tied up like a rice dumpling.

Panan immediately stepped forward and pulled the man down, kicked him a few times, and then carefully inspected his precious car and cargo. Then he breathed a sigh of relief: "There is nothing wrong with the things."

The agent turned his eyes to Li Ang, saw him nodding, and directed the driver: "Evacuate!"

A minute later, the man and the truck disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared before.

Li Ang had reason to suspect that the group of people just now were people who handled dirty work for Arasaka Company, so there was nothing on them that could connect them to Arasaka. Even the truck was produced by military technology.

This is called professionalism.

Panan was also shocked by their professionalism: "Damn it, you are so awesome, why the hell are you looking for me!"

Everyone in the cyber world is elegant and easy-going, and V is considered to be the better-educated one.

Li Ang was used to it and replied slowly: "Find the right person for the right business, it's that simple."

Panan was doubtful: "Let's talk about the business first."

Li Ang said: "Robbing someone, a secret employee of Kangtao Company."

Panan, who relied on his own car, immediately shook his head after hearing this: "No, I won't do the kidnapping. Besides, don't even think about using the company's fleet without enough manpower and equipment."

Li Ang changed the subject: "You still owe me a thank you."

"It doesn't matter if you can't do the work. You have to say thank you anyway. After all, I have fulfilled all your requirements, and mine."

As expected, Panan, who had a straightforward personality, couldn't bear the crowding and slammed the car door hard.

"Fuck, just do it!"

"But we have to find some helpers first. I have a few old friends from the tribe at Camp Adecado, and we can still get enough equipment."

Adecado, originated in Los Angeles, is one of the most famous wandering groups on the West Coast. They can be simply understood as a modern version of nomads, divided into families and tribes of different sizes, mainly engaged in scavenging, farming, and smuggling. Transportation and other businesses.

They are more disciplined than the more chaotic gangs and are happy to do business with the city folk.

Panan was once one of them, but later he had a conflict with the leader of his family, so he ran to Night City to make a living under Rogge.

Li Ang knew her situation very well: "Roger said that your relationship with family members is very complicated. Are you sure you can get help from there?"

The name Rogge is simply the reverse scale of Panan, and he gets angry whenever he mentions it.

"Humph, Rogge said yes, so that's it!"

"Don't be upset with me, just talk about business!"

Li Ang reluctantly changed the topic: "Well, there is no need for manpower. It is just a floating vehicle. The two of us can do it. As for the equipment"

He opened the gangster's back seat, which contained a dazzling array of weapons, including ordinary kinetic energy firearms, electromagnetic technology firearms, smart tracking firearms, pistols, rifles, and sniper rifles.

At the beginning, Arasaka Company's wool was not harvested, but now it comes in handy.

"I have all the equipment you can find here, and it's better than yours."

Panan was dumbfounded when he saw this scene: "You really just want to kidnap someone, don't you want to start a war with Kang Tao?"

Li Ang said lightly: "If there is really going to be a war, I will not use a gun."

"Okay, let's pick the ones you think you can use."

Panam felt that everything was useful, and finally moved a lot back to his car, including two RPG rockets.

"Now let alone Kang Tao's aeroplane, I can even knock down the spaceship for you!"

"Maybe." Li Ang replied ambiguously, and then asked: "Can we set off?"

"Of course." Panan turned around and prepared to get in the car.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and shot Nash, who was lying on the ground as a cocoon.

This person was her first partner in Night City, but he ended up hacking her car and goods.

Panan later learned that Nash was a member of the Luan Dao Club.

The Ran Knife Society can be understood as an organization formed by the bad guys who were exiled from the homeless group. It is Adecado's mortal enemy, lawless, ferocious and aggressive.

Rogge arranged the two of them as partners, and it would be strange if Panan didn't have any objections to her.

After killing Nash, the hottest girl in Night City felt instantly relieved: "Let's go, take my car."

"Your delicate baby car will turn into a pile of scrap metal in less than 10 minutes outside the city. This is for your sake."

"So I have to thank you?" Li Ang opened the car door with the Adecado logo and got in the passenger seat.

A smile appeared on Panan's face for the first time: "You're welcome, my friend, sit tight."

On the way, Li Ang handed her the chip containing intelligence.

Panan read the content carefully and came to the conclusion: "Jackson Plains is a long and narrow corridor area. It is outside the City of Night and is beyond the reach of Kangtao. We will start there."

"The only problem is that this type of float vehicle is very hard to track. During the war, you can always see its classic model flying around. Although the model is large, it is extremely fast, plus it is equipped with The next-generation defense system cannot be defeated with serious firepower, let alone a few broken guns, so we have to think of other methods."

After listening to her analysis, Li Ang praised: "I'm very glad that Rogge recommended you to me."

"Don't mention that old cousin, for the sake of my good mood." Panan stared at the road ahead: "There is still some time before the float car passes by. Let's go to the nearby area first to see if there is anything. Something that can be used.”

Li Ang leaned back in his chair and said leisurely: "You are a local, you can make your decision."

Seeing the man's complete trust in him, Panan couldn't help feeling a little fond of him: "I like to cooperate with people like you, it saves trouble."

She is such a person. When you are unfamiliar with her, she packages herself like a big hedgehog with a mouth full of thorns. But once you get to know her, you will find that she is actually very talkative. She is violent on the outside but gentle on the inside. She is a typical sharp-tongued person with a soft heart.

The Tingwei McNaughty, which made a lot of noise when running, was speeding along Route 9, which seemed to have no end in sight.

This is a bad land, completely different from the vast world of Night City.

There is little vegetation and almost no animals. There are only endless deserts, wastelands, low hillsides, dry oil fields, piles of waste, and isolated abandoned towns.

Asphalt roads built in the past crisscross the wasteland, and some of them have been buried by gravel.

In the distance, through the clear blue moonlight, it seems that the skyscrapers and holographic billboards in the city can be glimpsed.

Surrounded by such a lifeless and desolate land, Night City, which is rotten to the roots, looks like a lush oasis.

But for those who care, the Badlands also has its value.

A huge number of wanderer tribes are dotted with branches all over the place. Large companies prefer to enclose a large enough land and use the natural resources of the bad land to build biological farms, power stations and other facilities.

Li Ang's destination is a satellite energy power station on Jackson Plain.

Contor's properties contribute two-thirds of the electricity that powers Night City every year.

Panan finally parked the car on a hillside, from a high position, able to have a panoramic view of the power station and its surroundings.

Li Ang jumped out of the car and approached the edge of the steep slope: "What a good place for a bird to poop."

"Indeed." Panan stood next to him with his hands on his hips: "The typical California desert landscape is dry, empty, and endless. You can see clearly even a mouse running past, let alone an aerial vehicle. They have arrived. We are always a living target.”

"It just so happens that this power station can help us."

"We can overload the power generation pile system inside to form an electromagnetic pulse. Once the aerial vehicle enters the range, the electronic instruments on the vehicle will fail."

"Drive, navigation, communications, everything, including the engine of course."

"At that time, we only need to confirm the crash point of the float vehicle, and then chase after it to find the person you are looking for."

"Simple, right?"

Li Ang rubbed his chin: "It's really easy to just say it with your mouth."

"But I just received the news that Kangtao's aerial vehicles are equipped with the latest anti-pulse devices."

In fact, there is no such device at all. The reason why he sang the opposite was because he knew the plot. The electromagnetic pulse method would not work, so it was better to use a simpler and cruder method.

"I'll take care of the floating car. Just calculate the landing point and find the fastest way to get there."

After hearing this, Panan kicked the stone away from his feet angrily: "Damn, why didn't you tell me earlier! I finally came up with the plan."

Li Ang said plausibly: "Because you didn't ask earlier." "Okay, Badlands Idea King, please have some confidence in your new partner."

Panan glared angrily: "What a bullshit idea king, are you deliberately trying to hurt me?"

Li Ang remained silent and took out an extremely eye-catching item.

As expected, Panan's attention was diverted: "Damn, what the hell? Are you going to use this twisted and broken stick to knock down the floating car?"

Li Ang stroked the entangled spear in his hand and said seriously: "Its name is Gulan Sanks' Thunder."

Panan looked disdainful: "Oh, I know, a broken stick with a name."

The previous good impression was gone, and she felt that the man in front of her was definitely a fool and the kind with mental problems.

"We agreed in advance that if we fail later, it won't have anything to do with me. If I finish this job with you, we'll be settled. Don't come to me in the future. I'm afraid of infection."

After that, the hot girl returned to her car angrily, obviously not wanting to have any communication with Li Ang in a short time.

Li Ang didn't take it seriously, let alone explain.

Explain clearly how you can show off later.

The current time is around eleven o'clock in the evening, and there are still three hours before the float vehicle passes by.

Sufficient time was enough for Panan to calm down. After thinking about it, she felt that she could not just watch the mission fail. After all, the other party helped her get back the car and goods.

He took the initiative to chat and said: "Hey, why don't you let me go to the power station to try it, just in case it works."

Unexpectedly, he was rejected mercilessly by Li Ang.

Seeing this, Panan's heart ignited with anger again: "Do you think I am willing to care about you? If you love me to death, I'm going to bed!"

"I've never taken on such a simple commission. It's all done after a short sleep."

"If you miss the floating car later, don't yell. If you dare to disturb my rest, I'll blow your head off!"

Li Ang turned a deaf ear to her curses and refused to cooperate.

Three hours passed quickly.

Panan, who had not slept at all, yelled loudly: "Open your dog eyes quickly, the floating car is coming, from the direction of Taiping Prefecture!"

At the same time, one hand was already touching the RPG in the back seat.

Again, watching the mission fail, she couldn't do it.

Li Ang, who had closed his eyes to rest, then opened his eyes, and sure enough he saw a floating car dragging blue fireworks across the sky in the distance.

So he raised the thunder spear in his hand and took a stance like a javelin thrower.

The next second, the power belonging to the ancient dragon caused the situation to change. A fierce wind suddenly rose in the empty wasteland. Large, thick, and constantly churning dark clouds floated from the originally clear sky, followed by dull thunder.

At the same time, the red electric current gradually gathered at the tip of the spear, and under Panan's stunned gaze, it completely turned into a dazzling red lightning.

At this moment, Li Ang was like the mythical god of thunder, suspended in the air, surrounded by raging arcs of electricity.

With a shocking roar, the spear came out of his hand and flew straight towards the Kangtao floating vehicle several kilometers away.

The dark clouds overhead were torn apart, and the messy wind was shattered.

There was only one dragon roar that shot straight into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the red lightning formed by the spear accurately hit the target, bright firelight rose, and the aerial vehicle fell rapidly to the ground in an extremely unnatural posture.

Upon seeing this, Li Ang immediately got into the passenger seat and shouted to Panan who was standing in a daze outside the car:
"What are you doing standing around, come and drive!"

Panam woke up as if from a dream, hurriedly threw down the RPG on his shoulder, got in the car, stepped on the accelerator, and headed straight for the landing point of the floating car.

Along the way, she kept shouting and her excitement was palpable.

"Holy shit, shit, I'm not dreaming!"

"What the hell is that, the latest version of energy missiles, and other new weapons?"

"So fucking handsome!"

Li Ang had been waiting for this moment all night, and he finally felt comfortable.

Finally, he said calmly: "It is whatever you want it to be."

Panan looked at him with a little admiration in his eyes.

But just as he was about to ask something more, the intercom in the car suddenly rang automatically, and there were two men talking inside.

"Did you see it? It's over!"

"Yes, the float vehicle, unmarked, is descending. What about you?"

Panan's expression suddenly became surprised: "Mitch, Scorpion, why the hell are they here!"

The intercom conversation continues.

Mitch: "I'm still working on this generator. You follow me first. I'll be right back."

Scorpion: "Hmm, I'm almost there."

Panan's tone became impatient when he heard the words: "Mitch! Scorpion! Don't get close to the float car! Repeat, never get close to the float car!"

"It's Kang Tao! Wait for me to come over first! Otherwise, don't go there!"

Probably because of the thunder and lightning released by the ancient dragon spear and the nearby satellite energy power station, communications were affected, and the two tribe members of Adecado could not hear the shouts at all.

"Damn! They might want to help the survivors, but they didn't know it was the company's fleet!"

Panan was so anxious that he almost stepped on the accelerator.

The house leaked and it rained all night. At this time, Kangtao's armed drone also discovered Tingwei McNaughty speeding across the wasteland.

After a series of different swear words, Panan commanded: "Quick, I have a machine gun on the roof of the car. I can't be dragged by the drone. I must get to Mitch and Scorpion as soon as possible!"

When Li Ang recalled this incident, it seemed that even if they rushed over as soon as possible, Scorpion would die in the hands of Kangtao security.

"Don't forget, you owe me another thank you."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Panan took time out of his busy schedule to glare at him: "Fuck a drone so fast."

"When we rescue Mickey and Scorpion, don't say thank you. I'll have no problem sleeping with you!"

Seeing that she was really anxious and could even say such words, Li Ang simply held her waist, broke through the roof of the car, spread his wings and flew towards the falling floating car at an alarming speed.

Kangtao's drone lost its target before he could even react.

The sudden change made Panan completely unable to tell whether what he encountered today was reality or a dream.

All she knew was that she was being held by a strange man with wings and flying in the sky, while the scenery on the ground flew past her eyes.

"You drank yesterday, are you still awake? Why do you feel a little dizzy?"

"It's because you're afraid of heights." Li Ang landed slowly and retracted his wings.

The orange and black floating car was right in front of him, and a long ravine was opened on the ground. Several Kangtao armed robots were scattered around on guard, waiting for rescue.

As for Mitch and Scorpion, they haven't even arrived yet.

"We are No. 1, Wuhu!" Li Ang cheered loudly.

To celebrate, he poured out a large amount of blood-red flames and burned several robots to ashes, not even a single part left.

Then he stretched out his claws and tore open the door of the floating vehicle, and saw Anders Hermann being protected by several Kangtao soldiers.

The soldiers, like frightened birds, frantically fired at the monster outside the car.

But the special caseless guided ammunition hit the opponent, making a sound of gold and iron, and then was all bounced away.

"Tsk." Li Ang sighed with no meaning, and then his hands and claws fell. In an instant, the car was covered in blood and flesh, and his limbs were flying around.

A few seconds later, he carried Hermann, who had already peeed in fear, out of the float vehicle.

After doing this, Mickey, Scorpion and a group of Adecados on motorcycles arrived belatedly.

"Panang, why are you here? Didn't you enter the city?"

"I" Panan, who stood there stunned for a long time, didn't know how to answer the old friends in front of him.

What she experienced today was so bizarre. If she were to write a memoir in the future, it would definitely be a highlight.
