from night city

"So anxious?"

"This batch of goods is too hot to hold on to, so getting rid of it as soon as possible will save you a lot of nightmares, right?"

McCoy's idea makes sense.

"What about the location?"

"Sunset Motel, you know where it is, right?"

"I know, the eastern bad land of Night City, but why did you choose that direction? I thought you would choose a closer location."

The Snake Nation mainly operates in the southern Badlands of Night City.

McCoy and the others chose the Sunset Motel in the Eastern Badlands for the transaction.

This means that if they want to come over to trade, they have to go in a big circle.

"It's classified."

"Okay, then I won't ask."

In fact, Lidya Su knew it without asking.

Most likely McCoy and the others also took on other jobs.

Dried it together by the way.

That's what Wanderers are like.

I will take any job I can take.

As long as it can improve the family's livelihood, they will do it.

"But you were once a member of the Bakker family, and you helped us so much, so it doesn't hurt to tell you."

"The reason why I specifically chose Sunset Motel is to pick up another client."

Su Xiao froze for a moment.

Subconsciously he asked: "Customer? Wait, what customer?"

McCoy didn't think twice and told him everything he knew.

"There was a person who was very anxious to leave the city, but he refused to explain what happened. But I didn't ask any more questions."

"Anyway, there are a lot of people like this in Night City. Either they caused this, or they had to leave the city with their tail between their legs because they committed something."

"When the Bakker family was still around, I often took on this kind of work. I saw a lot of people like this."

Su Xiao thought about it.

The first reaction was that it couldn't be such a coincidence.

"Do you have a photo of that client? Send it to me."

The strange thing now was McCoy.

"Sue, what are you going to do?"

"Don't ask so many questions yet. Send it over first and I'll see if it's the person we're looking for."

Soon, Su Xiao received the photo from McCoy.

Su Xiao directly shared the photo with Qianhua.

"Is this the person who betrayed you?"

Kakyoin Chika was stunned at first, and then her face was filled with surprise.

"it's him!"

"McCoy, this client has a problem with someone I know. Please give me a price. How much will it cost to let him over to me?"

"What does he have to do with you?"

"He betrayed the whereabouts of people I knew to the Tiger Claw Gang, causing their mother and daughter to almost die."

"Fuck! This scumbag!" McCoy cursed, "It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. This scumbag belongs to you. I will hand him over to you personally tomorrow afternoon."

"Thanks McCoy."

……

The Night City at four in the morning is different from other places.

Neon signs and holographic projection advertisements, 24 hours a day.

Although it's not yet dawn, the company dog ​​has already gotten up early.

The roads were crowded with vehicles going to work.

Such a lively scene has nothing to do with the civilians hanging out on the streets.

At four o'clock in the morning, they were still asleep.

One was wearing a long windbreaker, a peaked cap and

A man wearing a mask and covering his face tightly walked out of the super skyscraper in Little Chinatown.

It was the snakehead who betrayed Qianhua and Ryoko.

He stood on the roadside, looking anxious.

A few minutes later, a Delamain taxi stopped in front of him.

“Welcome to Delamain’s private car service, choose Delamain and leave your worries at home.”

As soon as the car door opened, the snakehead couldn't wait to get in and quickly closed the door, as if he was afraid that something would get in.

"You damn sure came on time, couldn't you have arrived earlier?"

"Customer feedback has been recorded, thank you for your compliment, Delamain always insists..."

Before the artificial intelligence on the seat display could finish speaking, the snakehead interrupted impatiently.

"Okay, okay, that's it. Rigid artificial intelligence can't even hear sarcastic remarks. There are still people who think that machines will replace humans. It's really alarmist."

……

Sitting in a Delamain taxi.

Looking out of the car window, the scenery continues to recede.

No matter how hard Snakehead tried, he really couldn't figure it out.

Why did Kakyoin Chika not only survive, but the Tiger Claw Gang suffered heavy losses?

Because all the members of the Tiger Claw Gang who were present at the time died, and no one survived.

In addition, not every street in Night City is equipped with surveillance cameras.

Therefore, neither Jotaro nor Snakehead knew that Qianhua had help.

I thought Qianhua was the only one from beginning to end.

Grass!Oh shit!

If he had known that Qianhua was so powerful, he would not have dared to betray Qianhua even if he had lent him some courage.

But it's too late to say anything now.

If Qianhua is not dead, he must be able to guess that he betrayed her.

If he continues to stay in Night City, he will definitely be hunted by her.

After all, Qianhua was not the kind of person whose adoptive father was beaten to death with a golf club and who could forgive the murderer in the end.

If there is anything worse than being chased by Qianhua...

That is, he also offended the Tiger Claw Gang.

The Fa Zheng group was hit hard, so many people died, and now Qianhua can't be found.

Don't even think about it, you will definitely have to settle for the next best thing and come to yourself.

It is said that the cunning rabbit has three caves.

In this line of work, the smuggler had already known that such a day would come.

So in Night City, he set up several hiding places.

Here is one of them.

However, continuing to hide is not an option.

I can only hide for a while, but not forever.

As long as he stayed in Night City, it was only a matter of time before the Tiger Claw Gang found him.

So he decided to run away and leave Night City.

……

A few hours later, when the Delamain taxi left Night City and crossed the border.

What appeared outside the car window was the same desert, and when the Sunset Motel came into view...

The snakehead breathed a sigh of relief.

However, being cautious, he did not get out of the Delamain taxi immediately.

Instead, he observed it for a while.

After confirming that no one is ambushing nearby.

Just got out of the car.

Walk into the motel and find the agreed upon room number.

Knocked on the door.

The door opened.

Inside is a double room.

The wanderers from Snake State were already waiting inside.

The leader also wore an old-style exoskeleton armor.
