After

briefly cleaning up the messed up apartment room, burning all the prosthetic parts that could be burned by a torch and not a drop of blood left, Kratos sat down at his desk and began to clumsily use a petite cyber-era computer.

As for why Cyber Times computers still retain keyboards and mice, this is also for the sake of some traditional users who are willing to spend money, which is perfectly normal for the company.

After a period of operation, Kratos has figured out the timeline of this world.

It's still mid-August '75, and basically nothing has started, and at this time, Valerie is still making money in Atlanta, and David is still studying at Arasaka Academy.

This is Santo Domingo's super skyscraper H4, room 29 on the 3rd floor, the owner paid a year's rent, today is actually just the first week, unfortunately, this unlucky child died really miserably, people died, and the money spent did not enjoy it at all.

Kratos has collected enough information, but he still has a headache - he is a black household, although there are no laws in Night City, but the law enforcement officers don't care, of course they will come to find trouble if it is profitable, and it is okay for the time being, but this Mohican will definitely be found if he is killed, and it will be exposed at that time.

Kratos has the certainty of single-handedly killing an entire city without getting hurt at all, but what's the point? Killing people and killing spirits, corporate colonialism will not be eliminated because of his fighting ability, just as Arasaka will not collapse because a thermonuclear bomb blows up a building.

After washing his face, Kratos also thought that there was nothing he could do but go out for a walk first, and this time would not be exposed, an unfamiliar face was nothing to Night City, and even Kratos's clothes could only be regarded as nostalgic, making people feel even less deviant than when they were in Marvel.

Out of the door, into the hallway of H4, the impatient horns of cars on the street, the quarreling and swearing of people, the hum of mechanical work, the visible advertisements, the snoring of drunkards and addicts, the strange sound of inferior Mewtwo leaking out of inferior headphones, these sounds rushed into Kratos's ears at once.

He frowned, then sighed again.

At this moment, a boy came out of the door, with a hairstyle that looked like a mohican, but with much higher hair coverage than the mohican, and was wearing a dress that looked exceptionally well-behaved in comparison with the people around him.

The boy was stunned when he saw Kratos, as if he was surprised that his neighbor had changed people so quickly, and he was also a little curious about Kratos himself.

"Hello sir, I'm your neighbor, David, David Martinez. "The devil sent God, and David reported his name to Kratos. This kind of behavior is rare to see in Night City, where kindness has no place to stand.

Kratos didn't expect David to be so naïve, how did his mother teach him like this, his mother's greatness is really unimaginable.

"Kratos. Kratos' answer was brief, and David didn't care, quickly closing the door and heading to Arasaka Academy, which he hated.

After David left, his mother, Gloria Martínez, came out, and it seemed that the family was in decent condition, and she was about to go to work before the time of the scarcity.

"He had a great mother. Kratos said this without a word.

Gloria was stunned and didn't know what to say, so she had to say dryly, "Thank you." Then he lowered his head and left Kratos' line of sight.

Kratos didn't care, just a casual remark, looked in the direction of the elevator, shrugged his shoulders, and chose to walk to the outside corridor and jump down.

"Wow man, what steroid do you use? How do you grow so big? Oh! I'm going to be tall just by seeing it!" A man on the side of the road who was one size smaller than Kratos was startled by Kratos jumping off, and then quickly attracted to Kratos's muscles.

Kratos was silent for a moment, then left the scene as fast as a mortal, his back even a little embarrassed.

"TMD, why is that B still chasing me!" Kratos walked out for a while, glanced back, and found that the big guy hadn't given up yet, so he could only continue to speed up and flee.

Soon turning around to another familiar place, Kratos finally got rid of the big guy who seemed to be a big bird and a regular.

Kratos looked at his surroundings and felt that the neighborhood was somewhat familiar, and then at a familiar person on the side of the road, he finally reacted: "This is Charter Mountain!"

But he was a little helpless, why did he come here, although he had raided Judy, but he was really not interested in these things now, he didn't want to participate in those inexplicable things at all, he just wanted to find an opportunity to return to Marvel quickly, and by the way, let Tony study the technology of this world and see if he could break it, these technologies are still very new to the Marvel world, at least for the earth.

Sighing, Kratos sat down on the edge of the road, looking at the somewhat desolate scene of Charter Mountain.

"This damn Night City. Kratos put his hands on his knees and sighed.

"That's true, what's new? It's not easy to mess with, isn't it?" Judy walked over, and it was amazing that she, who usually didn't want to deal with men at all, actually sat next to Kratos like this.

Kratos turned his head to look at Judy, surprised, but didn't show it, just said lightly, "How do you know?"

Judy chuckled: "Ha! Primitive, it's still so big, if those scum don't eat you in three days, I won't be called Judy."

Kratos also smiled: "Night City doesn't have a place for a native like me?" "

How can there be?company, scavenger, gang, which would allow such a good material to run around outside, heh, this is a cannibal city!" Judy was deeply touched, took out a box of cigarettes, lit one, and shook it at Kratos, but he refused.

Judy put away her cigarette and continued, "Why didn't you think you came to Night City? I heard that this is a place to chase dreams?"

Kratos shook his head, "No, I just came here for some reason, like ...... Portal-like, in a flash, I'm here.

Judy laughed even hahaha, "Hahahaha, you're really interesting, well, most people are like that, yearning for Night City, and then for a moment, they find that they are already trapped here, and they don't know where to escape."

Kratos glanced at Judy: "Are you too?" Judy

was silent for a long time: "Maybe, I at least have the possibility of leaving, but most of them don't, they can only rot here, like dirt, worthless."

"You really sound like you're sympathizing with them. Kratos looked at Judy without squinting, "Actually, you know what's good, you just can't do anything, you can't change them."

Judy lowered her head, then quickly raised her head and pointed her middle finger at the sky: "Grass! Of course, who doesn't know that the company is damned!" and then looked at Kratos again: "You think I'm going to say that? No, I'm just a selfish ghost, I don't care about anyone, I can live a good life, at least for now, I'm living a good life."

Kratos wasn't surprised: "Who knows, it's the first day I've known you." Judy was happy: "Hahaha, well, you're so interesting, I don't know why I'm talking to you about this, but it looks like I've done nothing wrong, it's nice to meet you, stranger."

Kratos knew that the time had come to separate, and he held out his hand: "My name is Kratos, maybe I can go and be a mercenary?" I don't know, but if you want my help, you can go to 0329 in Building H4 to find me, if I don't get kicked out."

Judy reached out and shook Kratos' hand, "My name is Judy, Judy Alvarez, and it's a pleasure to meet you."

Kratos waved his hand: "I guess you should go to work too, I'll take a look around the neighborhood and maybe find some work."

Judy shrugged: "There's no work around here, you can go to Japantown to try, Little Chinatown can also be, I hope you know the way, I really should go to work, bye~" Judy

walked to her van not far away, waved at Kratos, got in the car and left.

Kratos also stood up and dusted off, ready to leave. Now that I've met Judy, will I be able to see Mann and them next?

Kratos didn't care about this coincidence, in his opinion, things that were not enough to threaten him were basically not worth caring about, especially in this kind of world, this is not arrogance, but sufficient confidence in his own personality and strength.

However, Charter Hill is not very far from the TURBO Bar, just over there in H8, and you can also meet the people of Mann Team if you try your luck, and Kratos immediately set off to the super skyscraper H8.

When Kratos arrives at TURBO, he realizes that it's just a restaurant during the day and open at night.

But it's all here, and it's good to have some food in the cyber world, thinking so, Kratos walked into the restaurant and found a random seat to sit down.

"Hello, what do you order?" a short-haired girl who looked like a cat came over, looking like a waitress.

Kratos took out a stack of euros that he had turned out of the apartment, glanced at the menu, divided half of it and handed it to the waiter, saying, "Here's five hundred euros, look at it." The

cat waiter was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect someone to spend so much money to eat, and the most expensive meal here is less than 100 euros, does he really eat alone?

But after thinking about it, why do you care about others so much, so the cat waiter nodded, and her smile was still the same: "Okay, this will order food for you."

Kratos looked around the restaurant, even though it was still daytime, there were not a few mercenaries, probably the place was more famous, and when he didn't drink during the day, various cyberpunk gangs would be happy to come here to eat.

As a result, he looked at it and suddenly met the eyes of a strong man with a samurai head.

The strong man looked surprised, maybe a little surprised, and walked over.

"Hey man, you're doing a good job, you see it's full, why don't we share a table?"

asked Kratos while scratching his head. But when he said he was asking, he was actually sitting down when he spoke.

Kratos nodded, but quietly moved away from the strong man, the pervert who had just left a shadow on him.

But soon this concern disappeared, after all, the strong man introduced himself: "Let's get to know each other, it's fate, my name is Jack Wells, Valentino Gang, see that you are also a person, do you want to follow me?"

Kratos was a little surprised, but nodded lightly, and replied: "It's okay, but I'm a native and just came to Night City."

Jack quickly glanced around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he hooked Kratos's shoulder and whispered: "Brother, the natives are fine, I don't mind, but you can't say that in public! Beware of the scavengers' dog mongrels staring at you!"

Jack is still so kind, Kratos also smiled, revealing a little bit of his own information: "My name is Kratos, they probably can't help me."

Jack let go of Kratos and smiled, "Is that so? Then you have to be careful, although I don't know what your way is, but it's better to be careful, the scavengers don't tell you anything about morality."

Kratos smiled and said he knew.

Jack called the waiter, ordered noodles and side dishes, and then continued to talk to Kratos.

"So what are you going to do? I'm taking some work in the valley area right now, and occasionally come to the Kabuki district to talk about it, and if you want to follow me, it may not be possible to get ahead in a short time, but I can still guarantee that you want to eat enough and live a good life. "

Jack rarely saw someone who could see it, and it seemed that he still wanted to pull Kratos into the team, even though Jack was the only one in the team.

"You've ordered your meal. "The cat waiter came over and brought Kratos food.

Kratos took a chopstick and put it in his mouth, his face stiffened, and he swallowed quietly.

"I'm just begging for a living, it's enough, but I don't want to get a prosthetic body, can you get me a watch or a phone that can receive messages?"

Kratos said in a low voice, swallowing the overly cyber-tech-heavy work.

Jack didn't notice Kratos's anomaly and frowned, but quickly stretched out again: "Of course, although it is a little difficult, there are too few people who don't have implants now, and it is difficult to find, but you can always find it by asking a few more guys on the road."

Kratos smiled slightly: "That's okay, I still have some money."

Jack waved his hand: "Bad! This money is not much, I'll help you get it, it's a big deal that you can get less points next time, we're in a group now!"

Kratos was a little helpless, and Jack was a little too familiar: "Jack, why did you trust me so easily? I really came to Night City for the first time, and it was the first time I met you, right?"

Jack had a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Actually, I've seen you before, that waitress is Sasha, my old friend, she meets those rogue customers every day, even if it's a little better, she rubs the oil, and you don't even touch her hand when you pay, it's impossible in Night City!

There are no good people here, especially those who come here, they are more or less unclean, and you are different, I see that you are incompatible with this city, believe me, my vision is still good. What must we have been? That chemistry?"

Jack Balabala spoke very quickly, mixed with a few words of Spanish that leaked out of excitement, Kratos smiled helplessly, Jack's eyes were good and bad.

"Okay, when will the communications be ready? I don't have any way to contact you right now.

Kratos couldn't help but interrupt Jack's detailed explanation, but Jack didn't care, took a pair of chopsticks and picked the noodles that Sasha had just served.

"That's nothing, come to my bar for two days, just get something, lots of rooms, don't worry about not having a place to live."

Jack thought Kratos didn't have a place to live in Night City, and patted him on the shoulder to reassure him.

Kratos thought about it, and it seemed that he didn't have anything to do, and he didn't have anything to do, so he was as good as he could.

The two finished their meal, and Kratos followed Jack to the Wolf Bar.
