Chapter 215 Araban's Actions
Chapter 215 Araban's Actions
All the gangs in Night City have their own strong gang style and code of conduct.
The Valentino gang has strict restrictions on the territory and only operates in Heywood.
They follow the rules, rely on strict moral standards and centuries-old historical traditions to command members, abide by values such as honor, justice, and brotherhood, and do not hesitate to pay any price to defend them.
Walking on the streets of Heywood, you can see dilapidated urban areas everywhere. There are no high-rise buildings that are too new or too tall nearby. If you ignore the aerial rails, you will feel like a city from a hundred years ago.
Lu Ming only came once, and he hurriedly grabbed the Mantis Knife and left again.
It was only now that he officially got to know Heywood. In Lu Ming's memory, the Valentino Gang was the most professional gang among all the gangs.
They form a big family with the locals, and the community is loyal to protect the gang members, and the gang members will also check and balance Heywood's balance, which makes it difficult for any corporate company that tries to infiltrate the Valentino gang.
The price is backwardness and poverty, but the locals probably have the most smiles.
"V, after visiting Night City, Heywood is still comfortable to stay in. Even a pile of shit smells better than the smell outside." Jack Wells began to use vulgar adjectives again.
"Jack, you are a legend after all, don't you want to create a strong character?" Lu Ming joked.
"Create a fart, it's not my style to be polite." Jack Wells waved his hand and said: "I was wearing a suit with the same frame as a company dog at the Cyan Bi Hotel last night, and I felt itchy all over."
As the two were walking, a football flew towards them. Jack Wills stopped the ball with his chest like a reflex and blocked it. Several five or six-year-old children trotted over and saw this scene.
"Jack! Jack!"
"Jack is back!"
Several children directly surrounded Jack Wells in the middle. Jack Wells stopped the ball and rubbed the tops of the children's heads with his big hands, "You little guys, I told you not to play football on the side of the road Are you there? What if you kick the old man, what if you get hit by a car while picking up the ball."
Happy time is always very fast, the joy of children seeing Jack Wells disappeared after being driven away by a few lessons.
Jack Wells touched his pocket and took out some change, "Take it to buy some snacks, be careful when playing football later!"
Several children left happily holding the football.
Lu Ming came to Jack Wells and said, "Jack, it seems that these kids like you very much."
"It's a must, V, my popularity in Heywood is quite overwhelming." Jack Wells said confidently.
"Hmm, I believe it."
Jack Wills's reputation in Heywood was indeed good. Lu Ming and he walked to the street, and when they saw ten people, nine of them would greet them enthusiastically.
"V, you don't have to worry about our safety in Haywood, company dogs can't come here." Jack Wells said: "Next, let's go and see the Relic."
"Did you get the relic to Heywood?" Lu Ming said.
"A place of absolute safety."
…………
Wolf Bar, Jack Wells pushed the door and walked in.
It was still early, and there were no customers inside. Lu Ming took a look at it. The Wild Wolf Bar was different from the Lizi Bar.
There are no dazzling LED lights here, nor any cold futuristic decoration.
The Wild Wolf Bar is completely retro in style, with some old objects hanging on the walls.
There are also arcade machines from the 80s and a pool table on the wall.
On the other side, there is a microphone stage for the band to perform, and there are many booths and booths.
It is the least cyberpunk place, but it is also the most comfortable.
"Hey, Pepi, how are you?" Jack Wills said hello towards the bar.
Pepi, the bartender at the Wild Wolf Bar, reacted, "Oh my God! It's Jack!!"
"Brother, do you know that this day is full of news about you on TV!"
"You actually made a big fuss at the Cyan Bi Hotel, hahaha!"
Night City But anyone who has eggs will sneer at company dogs, and there is nothing more fun than a company dog deflated.
"You don't know, the Wild Wolf Bar was full of people last night, and everyone was cheering for you."
Jack Wills came over and said: "Pepi, let me introduce to you, my deceased good brother V, you can also call him Lu Ming."
It's still the same, when Jack Wells introduces someone again, he will insist on saying Lu Ming's Chinese name again.
"V, Pepi is the best bartender in Heywood."
"Hello, V, the news said that you actually defeated Adam Hammer, which is so cool, brother!" Pepi said while taking out two Mexican beers, "Can I have a beer?"
"The beer is great, Pepi." Lu Ming found a seat and sat down.
Jack Wills also sat on the bar and said, "Pepi, what happened to the things I sent you last night?"
"Jack, can I not handle what you told me?" Pepi reached out and took out the box containing the relic chip from the bar.
Lu Ming raised his brows. If those who wanted a relic knew that Dongtou had just stayed in Heywood for one night, he didn't know how he would feel.
"Thank you, Pepi."
Lu Ming took the box and the chip integrity was 100%.
Pepi also picked up a glass of beer and opened it with a corkscrew, "Come on, let me pay respects to two legends."
After the three of them clinked glasses and walked away, Lu Ming suggested, "Jack, I think we should thank Pepi well."
Jack Wells nodded: "I should really thank you, but I'm so shy."
The task of the relic chip is done like this, and there is no dime.
Lu Ming said: "Giving money is too vulgar, Pepi, what do you think if we put our wine in the Wild Wolf Bar first?"
Pepi's hands shook, "This is so awesome, it's more important than money!"
With the disturbance Lu Ming and Jack Wells made in Night City, they are too qualified to keep the wine.
Jack Wells was also flustered by Lu Ming's proposal, "It's good to have a good brain! I can actually keep my own wine at the Wild Wolf Bar, it's so cool!!"
After coming out of the Wild Wolf Bar, Jack Wells walked in a fluttering manner, muttering from time to time: "Jack wine, Jack wine, Jack Wells wine, it's so delicious."
The place where Jack Wills lived was right behind the Wild Wolf Bar, and it was the first time that Lu Ming saw a physically unlocked rolling shutter door.
The room is connected to the bedroom by the garage. Once the shutter door is opened, it is a small world.
The loaned Tianqiong locomotive is also parked inside.
Lu Ming walked in and looked it over.
"V, rest for a while and then come home with me. My mother's cooking skills are also very good."
When Jack Wells said to take a break, he meant that after the guy entered the bedroom, he threw himself on the bed and began to sleep, and then snored loudly.
Lu Ming didn't have the habit of lying in the same bed with a man, so he walked out of the bedroom and came to the garage.
Then I opened the box of the relic chip, which is a pink plug-in chip.
In the original plot, he jumped from the top-floor suite of Lai Xuan Arabata, and in the melee, the box was damaged and the integrity dropped sharply.
In order to keep the relic chip inserted into the nerve socket.
And then there's Destiny's Motel, where Dexter DeShawn kills the donkey and shoots!
Because of this operation, Johnny Silverhand's personality consciousness stored in the relic chip began to be overwritten.
Only now, the relic is fine, there is no need to put it in the nerve slot.
But this also leads to a problem, without using relic, Johnny Silverhand will not appear, and many things seem to be impossible without him.
"Friday." Lu Ming said, "There is an electronic ghost's personality consciousness data on this chip, can you read it?"
"Friday is being parsed..."
"Analysis is complete!"
"Mr. Lu Ming, with my technology, I can read and activate this string of data, but the only problem is the lack of a container carrier."
Lu Ming pondered for a while. In the original plot, because he was shot, Relic activated and repaired the damage. As a result, Johnny Silverhand appeared, and his consciousness would gradually be covered, which was an irreversible operation.
And the body is the carrier container.
From a logical point of view, it is the same for Lu Ming to find someone to shoot and then connect the relic to someone else's neural interface.
But he wouldn't do such a shitty thing.
"Mr. Lu Ming, although I cannot directly shape a biological carrier that carries data, I can turn part of Mr. Lu Ming's thinking into nanoparticles, and Mr. Lu Ming can also turn it into a data potential for communication."
Lu Ming's eyes lit up, this is so awesome!
It would be nice to talk to Johnny Silverhand directly, bypassing the consciousness blanket in another way.
"Mr. Lu Ming, do we need to establish nanoparticle awareness immediately?"
"Now is not the time." Lu Ming refused.
This garage does not have the prerequisites for Lu Ming to do too many things.
And there are still a lot of things to deal with right now. On the contrary, Relic can postpone it for a while.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming transferred the relic chip to the nanoparticle box made on Friday, and then put everything into the portable space.
After finishing all this, Lu Ming received the reward smoothly.
"Successfully received the reward! Obtained a special item: Zhenjin!"
"The reward was collected successfully, and the portable space area x 10 cubic meters was obtained."
"The reward was collected successfully and the weapon development pattern (purple) was obtained."
…………
The reward this time is not bad, it is the kind of food that comes with a spoon.
The weapon development pattern can better help Lu Ming develop his own exclusive weapon.
As for Zhenjin, it is one of the hardest metals in Marvel. If Zhenjin is used to create a prosthetic body, I am afraid that Adam Heavy Hammer's iron body will only be killed indiscriminately.
The most important thing is the increased portable space, Lu Ming can store more things.
It was afternoon, and Jack Wells finally woke up. Looking at Lu Ming who was taking a nap on the sofa, he said very embarrassedly, "V, find a place to live in Heywood some time."
"It's not a big problem, let's talk about it." Lu Ming said.
Anyway, Huangban Company's spies are everywhere in Night City now, and he won't be able to go back to Watson District for a while, so it's not bad to stay in Heywood.
The two left the place where Jack Wells lived, drove the Sword in the Stone sports car to buy some vegetables at the vegetable market, and then came to the place where Mrs. Wells lived.
Tongzilou community in the 80s.
Jack Wells was standing outside the door with things in both hands and shouted, "Mom, I'm Jack, open the door quickly."
Footsteps sounded in the room, and Mrs. Wells opened the door with a kind face, "Jack!"
Jack Wills indicated that he had something on his hand and could not hug.
"Mom, let me introduce to you. As I often say on the phone, my good brother, V, is also named Lu Ming."
Lu Ming also stepped forward to say hello, "Mrs. Wells, just call me V."
"Jack has a lot of friends, but none of them can be brought home." Mrs. Wells opened the door and said, "Come in, my good boy."
Mrs. Wells lives alone. Although the room is not big, it is very clean and cozy.
There are many pictures of Jack Wells and Mrs. Wells strewn around the room.
Tiehanhan Jack Wells' childhood was not happy, so Lu Ming automatically ignored the topic of his father.
At the dinner table, Mrs. Wells prepared a rich dinner and asked Lu Ming to eat more vegetables.
It's a hearty home-cooked meal.
…………
After nagging at Wells' house for a while, Lu Ming declined Jack Wells's offer to help him find a house.
Before leaving, Lu Ming left a money chip.
Lu Ming left the community alone, drove the Sword in the Stone sports car to Lijing District and rented a room.
After taking a shower, Lu Ming turned off the communication interference.
The moment the communication interference was turned off, the missed communication messages popped up crazily.
Dexter DeShawn, tbug, Victor, Misty, Sandra Dorset, Judy, and even Stott, who didn't have a close relationship, also greeted.
Lu Ming called back Judy's communication directly.
"V, thank God you are still alive." Judy's voice rang when the phone was connected.
Lu Ming: "Didn't I say that? There will be a legendary figure in front of you, the living one. I have a beautiful pistol, so it's fine."
Judy forced a smile on the phone: "You guys are making too much noise. I just called to ask about the situation and nothing else. So I..."
"Judy..." Lu Ming said, "We are friends, if you have any problems, don't worry about it yourself, you can come to me to discuss it, you know?"
Judy's tone was wrong, it was probably because Evelyn Parker had disappeared.
However, due to Judy's personality, Lu Ming would not ask her one-sidedly if she needs help.
Judy had never been a begging woman.
"Thank you, V, I'm fine for now, I'll find you if I need anything."
After hanging up Judy's call, Lu Ming also thought about it.
It's not that he's unreasonable.
Even if Lu Ming didn't care about Evelyn Parker's cerebral palsy operation, it would be too late to save her.
In order to cover up the truth about his father's murder, Araban Yorinobu had already controlled Araban's sledgehammer and smashed it down.
It's a string along the way, and minor characters like Evelyn Parker have probably been dealt with by wooden men.
What's more, Lu Ming didn't think she was pitiful.
Drop drop drop.
[Caller Alert: Dexter DeShawn]
Dexter DeShawn?
Lu Ming raised his eyebrows and connected the communication.
"V, you finally fucking answered my call!"
"Do you know who you killed? That was God. Now everything is over for me!"
"Listen! Tell me where you and Jack are now!"
When the phone was connected, Deshawn scolded violently, his tone full of hysteria and anger.
"DeShawn, you don't seem to have the qualifications to threaten me." Lu Ming said plainly.
Dexter Deshawn's tone choked, and then he cursed angrily: "You are just a poor mercenary, and you dare to challenge me? I am Dexter Deshawn. If you offend me, let me You disappeared in Night City!"
The fat black man has never been a good guy, and he is the best at removing fuel from the bottom of the cauldron and rubbing oil on the soles of his feet.
Lu Ming pondered for a while, and followed the progress of the plot.
Deshaun should have died at the hands of Takemura Goro, but Deshaun didn't mention relic a word on the phone just now, so it only shows one thing, Takemura Goro is next to him.
"DeShawn, there's no need for you to talk to me, talk to the friend next to you." Lu Ming said.
