Start in Night City

Johnny responded by raising his middle finger.

"Then what do you mean..."

Johnny pointed at Lidya Su.

"You are not ordinary cyber mercenaries, right? Relic, and the combat robot possessed by me, are not ordinary goods."

"It will be fun to follow you, and maybe the way I leave this iron shell depends on you."

It's not that Johnny doesn't want to.

If possible, he could not wait to fly to Rogge's side immediately.

If it had been a human being instead of a machine, he would have done this long ago.

but now.

no.

Because he might not even be able to enter the "afterlife".

Just kicked out.

Moreover, he is now a machine and no longer human.

If you travel alone, there will be many inconveniences and difficulties.

I have to admit that humans are quite exclusivist.

Chapter 164: You are noble, you are amazing (3K)

T-BUG woke up quickly.

Johnny didn't kill her, he just choked her unconscious.

She wakes up and sees Johnny.

She was so scared that she wanted to touch the gun.

But was stopped by Su Xiao.

After some explanations, she still couldn't believe that the little crew chief contained the soul of Johnny Silverhand.

What made her even more incredible was that.

Arasaka was actually willing to let them go.

She couldn't figure out why.

There has never been an example of someone from the company getting away with it safely before.

Why is Arasaka Yorinobu willing to be open-minded?

T-BUG I can’t figure out why even if I try hard enough.

However, since they are not on Arasaka's list, that is naturally for the best.

Thinking of this, T-BUG couldn't help but sigh.

If only Dexter knew what would happen.

He won't lose his life in vain.

However, the reality is that there is no if.

"BUG, what do you mean, do you want to go to the Wild Wolf Bar for a celebratory drink together?"

"Thank you, but I still can't."

T-BUG is not used to being in front of others.

Unless absolutely necessary.

She still prefers to be alone.

Not because of social fear, but because she is used to it.

It's also safer.

As a hacker, once connected to cyberspace, his perception of the outside world is zero.

If someone else gets hold of your information, there is no guarantee that it will not be used against you.

T-BUG doesn't trust anyone else except himself.

This is evident from the fact that she planned to move to Crete after making a lot of money, but she had to cut off contact with everyone.

"Su."

Before T-BUG left, he suddenly pulled Su Xiao.

Su Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that T-BUG had something to say to herself.

If you are in the same communication channel.

Then it is indeed possible to have a conversation in this communication channel, and outsiders cannot hear it.

But when two or more people are having a conversation on the communication channel, the eyes will turn blue or gold.

In fact, it is tantamount to being exposed.

"Is Johnny Silverhand the consciousness in Relic?"

"right."

Lidya Su didn’t hide it either.

And there is no need to hide it.

"In that case, this relic can't be sold anymore?"

T-BUG's purpose for doing this vote is the same as Jack's.

Also for money.

Therefore, it is reasonable for T-BUG to ask this question.

"Yes, but it's not just for this reason. Only Evelin can sell relic. Now that Evelin has run away, no one will want this chip."

T-BUG still doesn’t give up.

Just like other cyberwalkers in the city, she has been working as a mercenary for a long time.

Moreover, cyberwalkers (hackers) are far more dangerous than mercenaries because they often need to work alone to penetrate into the enemy's subnet to steal data.

During this process, they may be counterattacked by enemy hackers, or they may be counterattacked by offensive defenses in the subnet.

And they were alone, without support or backup.

Teammates can't help them.

All they can rely on is themselves.

Precisely because the risks involved in the same mission are different, hackers often become aliens in the eyes of other teammates and feel lonely and unsociable.

T-BUG had been in many teams before meeting Su Xiao and others.

Some teams were completely wiped out, while others were destroyed due to various reasons.

Such reasons led her to leave.

But without exception, T-BUG developed a deep aversion to entering cyberspace.

This is why, when Dexter came to her and said there would be a big deal...

T-BUG agreed to Dexter without much hesitation.

Although it was Su Xiao, V and Jack who sneaked into the Kanbi Building.

But the risks T-BUG takes are no less than those of the three.

In fact, if it weren't for Su Xiao's timely reminder, when the red alarm sounded in Kanbi Building, if T-BUG had not exited at that time, I am afraid that Arasaka hackers would have discovered her and killed her through the network cable.

Therefore, when T-BUG learned that after all the hard work, he had finally obtained the chip from the Kanbi Building, but he could not exchange it for money...

She still couldn't help it.

I want to give it one last try.

"Can't we find other middlemen? There are so many middlemen in the city, Wakako? Father? Roger? Maybe they will be interested in this?"

"This thing is useless. Rich people definitely don't care to spend more money to buy the genuine version from Arasaka. People with no money can't afford it if they want it. What's more, taking out the relic is the same as murdering Johnny Silverhand, BUG , are you so cold-blooded?"

T-BUG opened his mouth.

It looked like she wanted to argue.

But in the end she swallowed what she wanted to say back into her stomach.

"I see."

Lidya Su patted her arm.

"If anything good happens, I'll contact you later."

T-BUG nodded.

When Su Xiao walked away, she called him again.

"Su."

When Su Xiao looked back, T-BUG said something sincerely.

"It seems that I haven't formally thanked you before. Thank you. If it weren't for you, I might be a corpse now."

"You're welcome."

…

Wild Wolf Bar.

Mrs. Wells, Pepi and Chika Kakyoin were discussing what kind of goods they should buy now that the stock in the bar was running low.

Lucy was interested in none of this.

However, she is not free of charge here.

But do what you can to the best of your ability.

For example, cleaning tables, sweeping floors, serving wine to guests, etc.

At this moment, the door of the bar was pushed open.

Lucy, who was mopping the floor with a mop, habitually said "Sorry, we're closed" first.

Then he looked up in the direction of the bar door.

When she saw a familiar figure appear at the door, Lucy froze on the spot.

"jackie?!"

Mrs. Wells looked over too.

Then he left Pepi and Kakyoin Chika behind the counter.

Came over quickly.

Holding Jack in his arms.

Jack was touched and a little embarrassed at the same time.

With so many people watching, he felt a little embarrassed being hugged by his mother.

But in fact, he was overthinking it.

Everyone can understand Mrs. Wells's mood.

No one will laugh at him.

Lidya Su also walked up to Lucy.

He smiled at her.

"I'm back."

Lucy's eyes were shining with tears: "Welcome back."

She stepped forward and helped Lidya Su take off her white trench coat.
