from night city

There was a big fuss in the Kanbi Building because Arasaka Yorinobu didn't want to be their enemy, so there was no follow-up.

But this is not necessarily true for military technology.

If only they had learned that Herman had been kidnapped.

It's strange that they didn't dig three feet into the ground.

Rogge seemed to have seen through Lidya Su's inner thoughts and said calmly.

"What are you thinking about? How could I ask you to do something in the city? Look here."

Even Rogge.

I don’t dare to openly oppose the company in the city.

So she thought from the beginning that this order would not be possible in the city.

Accompanied by Rogge's words.

The tactical eyepiece showed a map of the vast and empty desert terrain south of Night City.

"Jackson Plains is a long and narrow corridor area. It is outside the Night City and is beyond the reach of military technology. This is the blind spot of military technology."

"I will send Emeric to bring a team of my people to assist you, but these alone are not enough. You also need a local, a guide, someone who can tell you the best place for an ambush."

Su Xiao immediately understood what Rogge meant.

"You mean, Wanderer?"

When it comes to locals and guides, who knows the terrain better than a wanderer?

McCoy's figure instantly appeared in Su Xiao's mind.

But he then shook his head to dispel the thought.

McCoy may not be able to make time.

After all, now they are following Snake State.

One is that Snake State may not let people go.

Second, the fewer people who need to know about this matter, the better.

The matter is serious, and Su Xiao doesn't want to cause trouble.

If something happened, he wouldn't be the only one affected.

Somehow, he suddenly thought of the figure of the wheat-colored woman who walked out of Rogge's box in a menacing manner a few days ago.

"It looks like you know who I'm going to introduce you to."

"That woman named Panam Palmer?"

"I didn't know you even knew her."

"No, I don't know her. I just met her once when I came here to discuss business with Dexter. I remember that her last partner was the one you found for her."

"You have a good memory, yes, that's it, but she was not very lucky. Her last partner swallowed up her goods and car, and she was left alone."

Su Xiao's eyes widened.

"You know who her partner is, and you introduced him to her?"

Facing the hint of questioning in Su Xiao's words, Rogge just smiled lightly.

"She wants me to find a partner for her, but you know the reputation of homeless people in the city. Thanks to the Luan Dao Association, the general impression of homeless people in the city is that they are similar to bandits and robbers. Who dares Working with homeless people?”

"I know that there is something wrong with the partner I found for her, but I also reminded Panan not to reveal all her secrets, lest people think you are useless and take advantage of you. What a pity, Panan Nan didn't listen, and the little girl Pianzi thought I, an old woman, was nosy."

"If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a lot. But no matter what, she is a wanderer. She is familiar with the roads in that area, and she has no car or goods. If she doesn't want to eat sand to fill her stomach, she can only work for you. She No choice."

Wanderers are cybernomads.

The Luandaohui are bandits and bandits.

City dwellers often cannot tell the difference between the two.

Not to mention that there are many experts and scholars who write articles slandering homeless people.

Therefore, the reputation of homeless people in the city can be imagined.

As for Rogge's behavior, Su Xiao couldn't comment on it.

Panam needs a job, but because she is a homeless person, there are very few people willing to work with her.

Rogge could only do the next best thing and find her problematic partners.

If you want to say that Rogge is not to blame for this matter, it is obviously not possible. After all, Rogge introduced Panan's new partner, and it is impossible for Rogge to not know that there is no problem.

But to say that it was all her responsibility would be too much.

To put it bluntly, Rogge is just a middleman, not a philanthropist.

She couldn't help everyone for no reason and with all her heart and soul.

This is Night City.

These are the rules of life in Night City.

In fact, compared with other middlemen, Rogge is already very good.

With the exception of Dexter and Faraday, most middlemen prefer to use acquaintances.

Because middlemen are also afraid of hiring new people to mess up the task, thus damaging their reputation and brand.

Su Xiao crossed her hands: "Do you know why she came to the city to find a job? Her family is gone too?"

Rogge said the city people didn't like homeless people.

But in fact, the same goes for homeless people, except for business such as delivery.

They rarely interact with people in the city.

Not to mention going to the city to find a job.

"No, she ran out on her own, okay

It seems to be related to the future of the family, the ideals of the wanderers, etc... To be honest, I only listened to half of it. "

Hearing Rogge say this, Lidya Su couldn't help but smile.

"I thought you knew everything."

Rogge said lazily:

"It's enough to understand that you are in place. Besides, if someone starts to talk about 'ideals' with you, they are usually talking about doctrine and thinking about power in their hearts."

"But it's okay. It's none of my business, and it's none of your business anyway. Panan has the ability and position to help you. It's enough for you to know this."

"But, I know the character of this little girl Panan very well. She will find her lost things even if she tries her best. You have one day to help Panan find her things, and then you will go to Jackson tomorrow. Prepare the plains.”

"Of course, you have to call her first, and I'll give you the number right now."

Seeing that Rogge was about to issue an order to expel guests, Su Xiao interrupted first.

"Wait a minute, Roger, before I leave, I have a question to ask you."

"Is it about remuneration? Don't worry about that. You should know me. I have always been very generous to my own people, not to mention that we are both so familiar."

"It's not about the remuneration, it's about Panan. I'm curious, what would you do if I didn't show up?"

"Well," Rogge leaned back so that her back was close to the sofa to relieve the pressure on her back. She blinked, as if she was really thinking about this problem seriously.

"My relationship with Panan is not good enough to take the initiative to help her deal with the aftermath."

Lidya Su raised her eyebrows: "That means you won't be able to help her?"

"But I still have some responsibility for Panan to end up in this situation. If I just sit back and ignore it, it would be a bit too much for bullying a little girl."

"..."

Rogge is really Rogge.

Speak without leaking.

Don’t let others find out your bottom line.

"If she hadn't been furious and angry when she left, but had begged me loudly and angrily, I might have taken action. Now," Rogge's eyes lit up with a smile, "I don't Know."

……

The three of them came out of the next life.

Standing at the door of the next life, Su Xiao called Panan's phone number that Rogge had just given.

"Who are you?"

Panan said impatiently in the holographic phone screen.

"Hi, Panam. My name is Sue, and Roger gave me the phone number."

"That's great," Panan rolled his eyes, "Where the hell does that old veteran bitch want to send me?"

"We can forget about Rogge for now, I'm here to help you."

Panam now has no favorable impression of Rogge at all.

When I heard Lidya Su saying that I was helping.

I instinctively feel that there is a pit here.

"I thank you, but it's useless. It's too late. Give Rogge a message and tell her to get as far away as possible."

This woman is pretending to be calm.

Lidya Su could tell it as soon as she heard it.

It's not that she really doesn't need help, she's just using anger to cover up her true emotions.

Lidya Su didn't know why she broke up with her family.

But with this attitude, it’s really hard to get along in the city.

Because in the mercenary business, essentially, you are Party B, and the middleman is Party A.

Unless you become famous, the worse your attitude is, the harder it is to find a job.

Anyway, Su Xiao has never met any middleman, and he likes mercenaries who always talk to him.
