The villain knight doesn't want to be a hero

But why not say it?

[Could it be that you think too much?Maybe it's just a simple mistake. 】

"I don't know, but I think I can give it a try."

She was already like this anyway, so there was no need to care too much.

Besides, even if she was really overthinking, just issuing this kind of medical record would be enough for her to drag someone out of their sleep and beat him up.

Chapter 389 Don’t underestimate comedians!

With a bit of a fight under his eyes, v came to someone's clinic in the middle of the night.

Judging from the sounds coming from inside, the people inside were obviously not sleeping, but playing video games - this kind of thing can be considered ancient.

It was only when she walked in that she discovered that the person sitting in front of the TV rubbing the handle was not an old acquaintance of hers, but a man covered in red heavy armor...

Failed Mann?

"Here you come, I thought you would be later."

"Are you...k?"

She said with some uncertainty.

Although the image has changed a bit, the sound is still the same...

And for some reason, she didn't find it strange at all that the other party was dressed like this.

——Should I say it’s you?

And Johnny in her mind was still complaining.

[Tsk, I can’t tell that your doctor friend likes this kind of tone... Speaking of which, there were always a group of young boys in my time who liked to imitate what they saw in the movies, wearing similar leather suits and going out on the streets. stroll】

[But he doesn’t look cheap. 】

"Okay, don't stand there stupidly, v, sit down."

Lin Qiao waved to V, who was still in a daze.

Although the latter was a little surprised as to why he was dressed like this in the middle of the night, he sat on the sofa opposite without any ambiguity.

"Is it really okay if you turn up the volume so loud?"

He pointed at the stereo that was still making noisy noises.

Although it was not loud enough to disturb residents, it could almost be heard in the entire small single-family building.

In the past, Lin Qiao would never do this in order to ensure that her hacker girl could get enough and high-quality sleep.

But right now...

"It doesn't matter, I'm the only one at home now anyway."

Putting down the controller, Lin Qiao's tone was very casual.

As early as the day after nuking Marshall, he started preparing for Lucy and Ciri to move out.

At least this way, one day, when he comes to the door, he can directly give it a try.

At the same time, for the sake of safety, except for one or two clones that were temporarily inconvenient or kept as insurance, the other genetic factors that were separated have been taken back, making his strength directly doubled compared to before.

No, it should be said that this is his near-complete state.

"But couldn't you say something directly before? Did you have to go around in such a big circle and dress in such a strange way?"

"About this..."

Without answering V's question directly, Lin Qiao chuckled: "Before I answer you, let me ask first. What kind of person do you think Xiuzhi is?"

"Takemura...?"

v groaned and thought for a few seconds.

"Being able to escape Arasaka's pursuit while the prosthetic body is locked is no problem in terms of ability."

"And he is also very loyal to Saburo. He feels like a samurai seen in Mewtwo movies, but on the other hand, he feels a bit clumsy."

Overall, putting aside those messy factors, it should be pretty good if we are just friends.

And she must admit that now that the situation is extremely unfavorable to her, the other party's proposal is really very tempting.

——At least for a while, she couldn't think of any other way out.

"That's what I say, but you must first understand, v. Takemura's loyalty to Saburo Arasaka is not respectable, but a tragic product."

"He was born into the lowest-class family in Japan. The company took away everything that should belong to the people there, alienated their thoughts, and squeezed out every last drop of profit in every possible way, including human dignity."

"Then they will give them a little favor and give them back what they deserve, and only a small part of it. In exchange for gratitude, they will also brainwash them like they did during World War II."

In fact, this is the reason why Arasaka has so many soldiers.

As Arasaka's base and home base, the situation in Japan is far more serious than Lin Qiao said.

If Yorinobu hadn't been secretly stumbling upon Arasaka, causing Arasaka to focus its internal energy on competing with other companies, it is estimated that even the government would have been completely abolished by now...

Although it still exists in name only, even the requirement for being elected as a member of the Diet is to be born in Arasaka.

Night City is called the "City of Dreams" for a reason.

Of course, with the competition between various companies, the internal environment is as chaotic as raising a gu.

But compared to those areas that have been completely monopolized by super companies like Arasaka, this place is indeed full of hope.

[Here, v, this pretty boy is quite eloquent. To be honest, I have changed my opinion of him a little bit. 】

"But it doesn't seem to be of any use if you drag me here in the middle of the night to talk about this, right?"

And is it necessary to carry Goro Takemura behind these words?

Lin Qiao smiled and continued: "I just want to tell you that your and his interests are essentially different. There is no need to get into trouble."

"different?"

v tilted his head and didn't quite understand what Lin Qiao said... To put it bluntly, aren't they all going to face Arasaka?

"Yes, there is a big difference."

"You mean Takemura lied to me?"

"You can't lie... I can't say that. At most, I used the information gap and words to induce you a little and confused the concepts between each other."

Lin Qiao denied v's point of view.

During the time he possessed Saburo Arasaka, he got to know Goro Takemura too well.

On the surface, he looks dull, and sometimes quite funny. He seems to be a born comedian, but in fact, he is more of a wise and foolish person.

Don't forget his identity.

——Arasaka Saburo's personal bodyguard.

This cannot be accomplished simply by relying on the words sincerity and competence.

"Takemura is the criminal wanted by Arasaka for killing Saburo Arasaka. Therefore, his goal is to kill Yorinobu, avenge his master, and clear his own grievances."

"But you are different. You are just an ordinary living hell king in Night City. Although you stole Johnny Silverhand's chip, Lai Xuan didn't even notice who you were. All you had to do was take out the chip and survive. .”

Although Yorinobu seemed to be extremely unfriendly to V, it only seemed like that. In fact, the person he was really chasing was Saburo's bodyguard.

And it was precisely because of confusing the key that Takemura pulled V, the most powerful mortal in the Night City, into his own camp.

Otherwise, don't look at his unhurried and calm look.

But when it comes to Yorinobu, who has already become the president of Arasaka, it's strange that he doesn't panic.

Chapter 390 I will still save you

[Hey, I just said that the company dog ​​is not so kind. I thought he was going to throw you away after using it. The feelings are that he has already taken action from the beginning. 】

'Okay, okay, you're smart!It’s as if you saw it at the time! '

He replied rudely to Johnny in his mind.

In a sense, their relationship is somewhat like that of Rebekah and Pira, an enemy brother and sister.

Attention returned to Lin Qiao Lin Qiao.

"But even if you say that, my current situation will not change at all."

V looked very depressed. Even though he understood the fact that Takemura had deceived him, some things still would not change.

Pointing to his temple: "The chip is still in my body. The rock boy who blew up Arasaka Tower half a century ago keeps yelling in my ears every day. The only person who can save me is still... huh?"

Looking at Lin Qiao, who was sitting opposite, leaning on the sofa with his head supported by one hand, looking a little amused, V stopped mid-sentence.

Somewhat unsure: "You...can you take out the relic chip?"

Lin Qiao spread her hands: "It seems that I have never said no."

"..."

Thinking about it carefully, this guy only said that if he took it out violently, she would die immediately on the spot, but as for whether he could get it out...

It seems that there is not.

But on the other hand, v is not unable to understand the other party's actions.

"You didn't tell me before because you were worried about what Zhucun would do?"

This fatal crisis in relic is the basis for his cooperation with Goro Takemura...

If it could be taken out in private, which idiot would confront Arasaka?

Considering the current situation in which Takemura is being hunted, once he confirms that he cannot cooperate with him, he will most likely choose to silence him for the sake of insurance.

——It’s just that the above are all judged from her perspective.

"No, that's not the reason. If it's just Takemura's problem, there's nothing to worry about for me."

Denied what v said.

He was just a former bodyguard who had his prosthetic body locked away. Even if he really dared to fall out, Lin Qiao could pull him back.

"Strictly speaking, I want to use the incident between Zhucun and you to fish out someone who may be secretly paying attention to this matter."

"Who is that?"

"Let's just call him a guy who wants to get rid of me quickly - but it seems that the effect is not very good so far."

It would be better to say that since the last time he was bombed by a nuclear bomb in the electric field, Marshall, the vampire, has disappeared.

There was neither an attack on Arasaka's subordinate facilities nor a direct attack on Arasaka Tower. It was too low-key.

Although the system will automatically announce everyone's location when the time comes, Lin Qiao always feels uncomfortable letting the other party do things behind his back...

"So you want me to lure him out?"

"There is indeed a plan."

"When did you plan this?"

"Let's get started. You have already made a plan before receiving Dexter's commission."

“…”

v suddenly felt a little creepy.

Frankly speaking, although Lin Qiao's tone and tone were not much different from usual, the indifference and disregard for feelings in it were really strange.

[I take back what I said, this guy is not a damn good guy. 】

'Shut up, what else can you do besides annoying me all the time? '

v took a deep breath.

How can I put it, it feels uncomfortable to be taken advantage of by someone, especially someone you have always trusted.

His face was a little complicated and he said: "...Let me ask, what will happen if I refuse?"

Although asking is in vain, she already has an answer to this point in her mind...

"It's very simple. I will still help you take out the relic chip while ensuring your life safety."
