Chapter 93 A Brand New Future!
night city.

Santo Domingo.

In this noisy cyber city, even though it was approaching midnight, it was still extremely noisy.

The colorful neon lights on the streets, the large three-dimensional projections floating in the air, and even the frequent flashing dark yellow warning bars outside the dilapidated skyscrapers.

This city, covered by dark clouds and unable to see a starry sky, is full of all kinds of disturbing optical pollution.

at the same time.

A red figure was holding a bright yellow uniform in his hands, and slowly approached the dilapidated skyscraper apartment building.

Under the flickering dilapidated street lamps.

Gloria, who worked overtime until early in the morning, dragged her exhausted body forward slowly.

Skillfully avoided a group of homeless people who were carnival and indulgent in the streets and corridors.

Then he walked outside the elevator at the entrance of the apartment, pressed the button and waited as if to empty his mind.

Only in this moment.

Feel the familiar environment around you.

Only then could she slightly relax her tense emotions and let herself relax from the heavy work.

At the corner of the stairs next to the elevator, there is a large pile of garbage thrown at random.

Rotten food, mosquitoes flying all over the sky, and even homeless people snoring like thunder and dead bodies that fell in it.

Such a scene can be staged here almost every day.

This is Night City.

The dream city that people call.

whenever this time.

Gloria couldn't help feeling a little emotional in her heart.

Although I am not a qualified mother, I cannot bring David the best life.

But at any rate, under her best efforts.

It's not like letting David sleep on the streets like these homeless people.

Although the work is very tiring now, as long as she can maintain the current life, she already feels extremely happy.

she believes.

The days to come will definitely get better and better.

After all, her own son is not as disappointing as her mother.

Even in the Arban School where there are high-level elites.

David's cultural achievements are still among the best in the class.

he is very smart!Really smart!

If it was David, he would definitely be able to graduate from Arabata School smoothly, and then become an indomitable big shot!

And a bright future for the son.

It is Gloria's only source of motivation in this desperate life.

She would do anything for David!
Thinking of her struggling son, a happy smile appeared on Gloria's exhausted face.

Even the footsteps after stepping out of the elevator became a little lighter.

soon.

After unlocking the access control with the identity card.

Gloria quietly opened the door of the house.

After preparing to eat something casually, I lay down on the sofa to rest.

After all, it was very late now, and David should have fallen asleep long ago.

If it is washing, it is inevitable that there will be movement.

She didn't want her overtime to affect David's studies tomorrow.

But what surprised Gloria was.

After opening the door, the white light in the living room was still on.

Not far from the porch, David was looking at himself with a smile on his face.

And the small table in front of him was actually full of fragrant delicacies.

Although the specific reason is not clear.

But David's actions still made Gloria's heart warm.

Even the tip of his nose couldn't help but feel slightly sore.

David has grown up.

"Welcome home."

"Well, I'm back."

Gloria wiped her slightly moist eyes calmly, then replied with a smile.

At this moment, she felt that no matter how hard she worked, it was worth it.

Although I was a little curious about where David got his pocket money to buy this table of food.

And I don't know how those scars on the other party's face came from.

But Gloria still forcibly suppressed her curiosity, thinking about asking these questions again later.

She didn't want to disappoint David's kindness.

Today is a day to be happy about.

Now let her enjoy a little bit, this short-lived happiness.

"Why is it so late today and you haven't rested yet?"

Gloria asked David casually while taking off her shoes and walking into the house.

After all, I have school tomorrow.

At this point in time, David should have fallen asleep long ago.

"Of course I'm waiting for you to have dinner together. By the way, I want to discuss something with you."

David took Gloria's work clothes, then pushed the food in front of the other party and continued.

"Eat first, eat first, look at you like this, I know you must not have dinner!"

"Okay, okay, our David has grown up and knows how to be considerate."

Gloria sat down with a smile, and took the chopsticks from David's hand.

After working overtime all night, it is impossible to say that I am not hungry.

Not to mention, the overtime content of her work is actually heavy physical work.

But when Gloria took a careful look at the food in front of her.

There was a subtle change in her eyes in an instant.

Tamales, Teriyaki Chicken Skewers, Mixed Fried Rice, Fruit Salad.
Although it looks like food that can usually be bought outside.

But for some reason, Gloria smelled a strange but familiar aroma from the food David put out.

It's simply not like synthetic meat.

And in addition to meat, there are actually fresh fruits and vegetables.

this thing.

Even if she worked for half a month, she might not even be able to afford a meal!

And where did David get the money?

Under the huge doubts, Gloria almost couldn't help asking directly.

But David seemed to see what she was thinking.

When the other party opened his mouth, he first put the spoon full of beef broth into Gloria's mouth.

"Okay, let's talk after eating."

Accompanied by the extremely delicious taste blooming on the tip of the tongue, and David's firm appearance.

Gloria finally agreed and ate together with the other party.

Without a doubt, it was the best meal Gloria had ever had.

But even the indescribable deliciousness in the mouth.

She still couldn't hide the increasingly uneasy fear in her heart.

Because she knows.

This kind of food is definitely not something that their class can enjoy!
It is illegal to keep livestock in Night City.

Even privately trading organic meat will be punished if it is discovered.

This has led to the fact that the price of organic meat has always been ridiculously high.

And in Gloria's memory, it was only when she was still very young and Night City didn't stop raising her.

She had only eaten real meat when she was young.

But even after all these years.

That texture and taste, which is completely different from synthetic meat, is still deeply engraved in her mind.

When she took the first bite of the meat prepared by David.

Gloria noticed it.

The food on the table in front of him is absolutely impossible to be made from synthetic meat.

The unique fiber texture and rich taste experience of organic meat can easily distinguish it from synthetic meat even with just one bite.

no doubt.

This is a table full of food.

All made from expensive and illegal organic meat.

Don't say this is their home.

Even the vast majority of company employees cannot afford such a luxurious meal.

Seeing Gloria obviously realized this.

David didn't intend to hide any more.

He asked the other party to finish the meal before talking, which was also the time to give Gloria a mental preparation.

Now that the groundwork is almost done, naturally there is no need to worry her any longer.

thought here.

David put down the bowl, looked at Gloria seriously and said.

"Mom, I'm planning to drop out of Arban Academy."

Hearing this, Gloria felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

His hands trembled slightly for an instant, and even the chopsticks in his hands fell to the table with a "bang".

Dou Da's tears, like a broken dam, slid down her face.

obviously.

David's words are for this mother.

It was as cruel as if she had completely denied her efforts for half her life.

This scene also made David feel distressed for a while.

But this is the first change that must be made!
So anyway, he will tell Gloria about it tonight.

"You were joking with mom, weren't you?"

"Mom is already very tired after working all day, can you wait until later if you are joking?"

Tears couldn't stop dripping down Gloria's face.

even so.

She still squeezed out a smile and looked at David for help, waiting for the other party's reply this time.

However, David's next answer was like tearing open the scab on the wound.

Once again, the last line of defense in her heart was torn apart deeply.

"I'm not joking, this is a decision I made after careful consideration."

Hearing such a firm answer from David.

As if there was an invisible thin thread, it was completely snapped in Gloria's mind.

The goal that allowed her to keep working hard has been completely shattered by David's answer at this moment.

Unspeakable confusion and sadness have filled the mother's heart at this moment.

She couldn't help but slipped to the ground weakly, looking at David with sobs.

"Then what am I working so hard for..."

"I worked so hard to make you...but you..."

While speaking, Gloria lay on the ground covering her eyes, and continued helplessly.

"You're so smart and talented..."

"That's why I tried my best to train you well... If you stop studying, what should I do..."

see this scene.

David suddenly felt heartbroken.

He knew that for Gloria, his withdrawal from Arban Academy would have a huge impact on her.

But that's exactly why.

This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, instead of delaying and delaying my future arrangements.

Think of this.

David sat next to Gloria and wanted to explain to her the reasons for his decision.

"mom.."

But before David could speak.

Gloria had already sat up by herself, looked at him with red and swollen eyes, and then choked up.

"I know what they did to you because that's what happened to me too."

"It's my fault that I didn't realize this the first time. I...I'm not a qualified mother."

"But. But"

As she spoke, she reached out and wiped the tears from her face.

Wei Wei calmed down, pointed to the ceiling and encouraged David.

"It is because they are like this that we have to prove it to them. I hope to see you become an elite."

"If it were you, you would definitely be able to stand on the top of the Arban Pagoda!"

Hearing this, David's eyes turned slightly red.

He knew it was to make himself such a person.

That's why Gloria squeezed herself so recklessly, wanting to open up a better future for him.

But now everything is different!
He no longer needed Gloria to be like a candle.

Burning himself to light up his future!
He can be the sun on his own alone!
"In my eyes, no one is a more qualified mother than you!"

"I promise you, I will stand on top of the Arban Tower,"

"But this will definitely not be achieved through reading, because now I have the ability to change our lives."

As he said that, under Gloria's surprised eyes, David conjured a pile of expensive food out of thin air from his arms.

In an instant, they filled up the small living room, which was not considered ample floor space.

what is this?Magic?
The incomprehensible scene in front of her instantly stopped Gloria's grief in shock.

In her limited knowledge of more than 30 years, she really can't think of any prosthetic limbs that can achieve the scene in front of her.

"This is."

"Just take it as my superpower. I will only have more and more abilities like this in the future."

Seeing that Gloria had fallen into a deep bewilderment, David continued without stopping.

"I know that these may be difficult for you to accept for a while."

"However, in the days to come, I will use reality to prove to you that what I said is true."

After hearing David's words, Gloria came back to her senses belatedly.

Then with a look of disbelief, he picked up a cherry that had rolled in front of her, and opened his mouth to bite it.

So sweet!

Not only the cherries, but even the frozen meat and vegetables that were placed all over the floor were all real!
This is high-end food that she would never be able to buy even if she has worked hard for several years.

Is this a dream?

Even a dream can't be so outrageous, right?

"David, pinch me, I really can't believe this is true."

"This is not a dream! Mom, leave the future to me."

"This"

"Okay, okay, go take a shower and rest early."

"After waking up, tomorrow will be a brand new life!"

"This time, just trust me."
