from night city

Only this time, no one else is to blame.

Just when Lucy was trying to find an excuse to leave...not just leave from the rooftop, but leave forever, Su Xiao suddenly changed the topic.

"But we are talking about fugitives pursued by Interpol, right? If Interpol were replaced by a super company, the situation would be different."

"Eh?" Lucy was stunned.

Lidya Su did not go to see Lucy.

He always raised his head and stared at the night sky.

In fact, there is very serious light pollution in Night City.

Except for areas with backward economies and stagnant development such as Taiping and Santo Domingo, when you look up at the night sky in other places, you cannot see the real night sky.

The light of the stars and moon was obscured.

"The people I can pull into my team are naturally the ones I recognize. I think my vision is pretty good. It's impossible not to recognize fugitives wanted by Interpol."

"In other words, since you have joined my team, there is absolutely no way that he is wanted by Interpol. Since he is a guy recognized by me, no matter whether it is a company or a giant, please step aside for me. Anyone who wants to touch me, no way!"

Tears could not stop pouring out of my eyes.

Like a broken pearl, falling to the ground.

Lucy wiped the tears on her face and said with a bit of sob: "Aren't you afraid that it will bring you danger?"

Lidya Su seemed not to notice Lucy's abnormal mood and continued.

"I'm not afraid of the shadow cast by the company. What I'm afraid of is the concealment chosen by my companions, and the sacrifices that come with it."

"I have seen too many tragedies. Problems that could have been solved by everyone sitting down and having a good communication ended up being unnecessary sacrifices because of hiding from each other."

“If he/she were part of my team, I would want him/her to be able to speak out about the fear that is looming over and oppressing him/her.”

"Everyone adds fuel to the fire, and it is better for everyone to pool their wisdom than for her to bear the burden alone."

Lucy stood up with her face in her hands.

"Hug, sorry..."

As if he knew what she was going to do, Lidya Su took out a box of tissue paper.

He bought this together when he was just buying drinks.

"take it."

Lucy took the paper and ran away quickly.

About 10 minutes later, Lucy finally came back.

She seemed to have cried for a while, but her mood was generally stable.

She sat down next to Lidya Su again, bent her legs, and wrapped her arms around her knees.

"My full name is Lucyna Kushinada. I am half Japanese and Japanese. I grew up in an Arasaka facility in another country..."

she is talking.

He is listening.

Even the night breeze that never stopped on the rooftop was listening quietly at this moment.

All this time, Lucy had no one to talk to.

He has been evading pursuit and on the run.

There is no one to trust.

The secrets in her heart tormented her.

The depression made her miserable.

Now, it's all pouring out.

I feel much more comfortable.

But it also means leaving your destiny to the young man in front of you.

If he reports himself to Arasaka.

Then it's over.

This time, Su Xiao no longer made Lucy feel lonely and unable to fit into the team.

He hugged her.

Take her in your arms.

"We are a team, your business is my business. I will help you hide the secret. Arasaka, I will help you carry it."

The softness inside is touched.

Lucy, lying on Su Xiao's shoulder, burst into tears.

At the same time, subtle changes occurred in his thinking.

Lucy suddenly felt that it no longer mattered whether she went to the moon or not.

Now, he is her moon.

Chapter 78 The way you two brother and sister get along is really special (4K)

Lidya Su was woken up by a burst of fragrance.

In the kitchen, two women were busy working.

V walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate and placed it on the table.

Seeing that he was awake, he smiled and said to him.

"Hey, you're awake. Just in time, breakfast is almost ready."

"Have you... chatted?"

Lidya Su looked strange.

Last night, he went crazy and took Lucy to the rooftop to get some fresh air.

Later the two came down from above.

Lucy wants to go back.

But seeing that it was too late, Su Xiao took it upon herself to leave Lucy in V's apartment.

There is only one bed in V's apartment, but there are two rows of couches.

Su Xiao lets Lucy choose.

I am sleeping

Lucy picked the rest.

Now I see V and Lucy making breakfast together in the kitchen. It's obvious that the two girls have communicated.

"What, I'm sorry, I took it upon myself to keep Lucy here without your consent."

"Hey, what are you talking about? It's too crude."

V paused and continued.

"By the way, Su, you should call Jack and ask him if he's up and if he wants to come to our place for breakfast. Or should we meet up at Lao Wei's place and bring him some by the way."

"Lao Wei? Meet up?"

Lidya Su scratched her head.

I always feel like I've missed something.

Lucy's voice floated out from the kitchen and came to Su Xiao's rescue: "V, Su was in seclusion for half a month before. He probably doesn't know about that yet, right?"

"Oh, yes, it's my problem, I ignored it."

Later, with V's explanation, Su Xiao realized what was going on.

It turned out that today was the day when Lao Wei operated on her and Jack to install the fourth-generation "Krenzikov".

The principle adopted by Victor is to start with the difficult before the easy, first with the urgent before the slow.

When Su Xiao was in retreat, Victor had been busy with Lucy's affairs.

He first spent ten days using various methods to help Lucy adjust her body to its best condition.

Then the actual surgery began.

All the counterfeit goods marked in red in Lucy's body were replaced with the genuine prosthetics that Su Xiao got from Rogge.

The surgery was successful with no issues.

But Lao Wei did not relax.

Instead, they insisted that Lucy be kept in the hospital for 24 hours for observation.

It took three days to confirm that Lucy had no rejection or side effects.

Only then was she allowed to leave the clinic.

V and Jack's surgeries were put behind Victor.

That is today.

Su Xiao had been in seclusion for half a month before. Everyone felt that this matter was not urgent and they were afraid of disturbing Su Xiao, so they did not tell him.

……

After breakfast, the three of them went out.

In addition to maintenance elevators, the super skyscraper H10 also has two passenger elevators for residents and a freight elevator.
