Chapter 12 Mint-flavored snot
Afterlife nightclub, in a private room——
Stanley's news channel is listened to by everyone, especially the low-level mercenaries. If there are no hackers, this is one of the ways for them to obtain information from the outside world. At this moment, Stanley's voice can be heard in the next life.
"Santo Domingo has another power outage this time. There have been repeated power outages. If you ask me, it must be a habitual criminal stealing electricity. Then, let's take a look at the latest news from Huangban Company..."
In the room, after hearing Stanley's news, the cat girl in tight pink clothes showed a proud smile, looked at Mann, and said: "Mann, I, no, you can do this kind of thing.
?”
Sasha raised the bottle, took a sip, and narrowed her eyes comfortably. She finally felt relieved.
Well, she actually doesn't have to worry about that guy's safety at all. He's just a super monster. He doesn't have any prosthetics but has such combat power. Should he be called a super genetic warrior?
Well, her face was still a little red, Sasha looked at Mann and said: "103 people, Mann, those are 103 gang members."
Mann was silent, gritting his back teeth.
Dolio noticed Mann's mood and reached out under the table to gently pat his thigh.
Qiwei's eyes lit up and she sat in the corner smoking a cigarette, wondering what she was thinking about.
Lucy also smoked a cigarette quietly, silently watching Sasha with a smile on her face.
Pyrrha and Falco, who was called over to pick him up, also sat in silence.
There was only one guy who hadn't figured out the situation yet. Rebecca, who was dizzy from drinking, hugged Qiwei's arm, watched Sasha burp and said:
"What are you talking about? Just killed 103 people? Why do they have a gang fight and care about us? We are just a small group, just making some small money."
"Sometimes I really envy you for not having a brain..." Pyrrha sighed as he sat in his seat. He had a cheerful personality and was like a treasure. After hearing the news about Stanley, he also became quiet.
He even hesitated and wanted to persuade Mann, even if Mann would be angry because of it.
Such a guy is definitely not someone they can mess with.
"Ah? What did you say, bastard brother?" Rebecca opened her mouth and looked at Pyrrha.
"Shut up." Qiwei raised her hand and hit Rebecca on the head with a light knife. The position was precise, right in the middle of the hairline.
"Bastard old woman, do you want to die?" Rebecca immediately raised her head and looked at Qiwei fiercely.
"What did he mean, Sasha, I didn't offend him." Mann spoke.
Dolio breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Mann's words.
It seems that Mann is a reckless man and has no brains, but in fact Mann is a very shrewd person, and Dolio understood the meaning of Mann's words.
Mann, gave in.
"Mann, Lin Wen is doing this for your own good. You really should stop." Sasha looked at Mann.
"Is it good for me?" Mann whispered, then laughed self-deprecatingly, and nodded: "I understand, I will think about it carefully, and let him rest assured, I will never become a cyborg.
Crazy.”
"Sorry, Mann..." Sasha said apologetically, stood up, picked up her bag, and left the room.
At this moment, Qiwei and Lucy started moving at the same time.
Trying to break away from Rebecca who was holding her, Qiwei and Lucy looked at each other, and then followed Sasha at the same time.
Qiwei still carries a dissatisfied Rebecca.
"Aren't you going to stop me?" After the four women left, Pyrrha looked at Mann and said.
"Why stop me?" Mann shook his head, took a big sip of wine, and continued: "Qiwei and Lucy didn't sell themselves into my team, they just cooperated with us, and as hackers, after knowing
After there is such a terrifying guy in Night City, isn’t it normal to want to know more about him?”
Pila hesitated and said, "You have a good relationship with him?"
"If meeting him a few times can be considered a good relationship, then I think I have a pretty good relationship with him." Mann smiled heartily.
Now that you have given in, there is no need to dwell on it anymore.
"Come on, Pyrrha, let's continue drinking. Okay, Dolio, don't look at me like this, I've already thought about it. What else can I do except agree? That's a fucking madman from the Whirlpool Gang, a hundred
He killed many people in one night, how can I still fight against him? Didn't he just ask me to stop the progress of installing the prosthetic body first? It's not like he won't let me install the prosthetic body."
Dolio nodded, "It's best if you think so."
"As for Qiwei and Lucy, don't worry, Mann, they will be back."
Mann looked at Dolio angrily and said, "I'm not worried."
"drink wine!"

In the high-end ward of the hospital——
"You, where were you last night?" Seeing Lin Wen, David stood up quickly and asked at the same time.
"Why are you asking?" Lin Wen said as he stuffed an energy bar into David's mouth.
The meat content... no, the energy bar contains 30% of the insect content and is full of protein!
Then who said that? How many times more protein does bugs have than beef?
Well, Lin Wen forgot.
As for the taste of the energy bar, well, it tastes like barbecue, but the texture is very bad, just like chewing dry soil.
Before David could even react, a foreign object appeared in his mouth, and he started chewing. He looked at Lin Wen blankly.
What the hell?
Just, a black shadow flashed, and there was something in his mouth!
David suddenly discovered that Lin Wen, a sickly man, looked thin and tall, but his strength and speed were astonishing. Wait, why didn't he react to this before?
Yes! All this time, he only needed one hand to hold himself down easily. In the past, David thought it was because he was too thin, but now that he has grown up, isn't it the same?
And whenever he faced something thrown at him, he could easily dodge it.
Damn it, now that I think about it, David discovered that Lin Wen had been showing these strange behaviors not long after he met him!
"Shengke's new nutritional cream, Gloria, seems quite expensive, right? I remember last time I saw an advertisement, one bottle seemed to cost more than 400 euros a day, which is equivalent to a month's salary for me.
Lin Wen walked to Gloria's hospital bed and said in surprise when he saw the nutritional ointment on the silver plate on the table.
David chewing an energy bar: "..."
How many hundred euros is your monthly salary?
You, you took out tens of thousands of euros yesterday without changing your expression!
Lin Wen spit out the two-dollar energy bar in his mouth, opened a bottle of nutritional ointment, sucked it in, and then frowned.
"Hmm...this doesn't taste very good either."
"What does it smell like?" Gloria looked at Lin Wen curiously.
Lin Wen handed over the nutritional ointment, "You'll know after you try it. I think it's a bit like mint-flavored nasal mucus..."
Gloria didn't reach out, but opened her mouth, and then looked at Lin Wen.
"How old are you?" Lin Wen raised an eyebrow at Gloria's little thoughts.
"I am sick now!" Gloria said aggrievedly but righteously, "You have to take care of me."
"Okay, okay, I'll just feed you." Lin Wen stretched out his hand and handed it over. Gloria lowered her head and sucked it into her mouth. After taking a sip, she opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, frowning like Lin Wen.
"It tastes really bad..."
"Really? It's like snot, and it smells like mint."
Gloria nodded and said: "I really don't know what those rich people think, spending hundreds of dollars to buy something like this..."
David, who was watching this scene on the side: "..."
David: Me, why do I feel like I’m redundant? Shouldn’t I be standing here?
——————
I quite like the character of Qi Wei. Although she later betrayed David, her reality and some aspects of her are...well, cute.
For example, he vomited "rainbow" in the car, failed to understand Mann's call to David "**", and occasionally made some little moves, which were all quite cute.
Chapter completed!
