In the early morning, rays of sunshine shone, bringing a little warmth to the city.

"Hey..."

Perhaps feeling the warmth on her face, Sasha slowly woke up from her deep sleep. She stretched out, blinked her big eyes, and stared blankly at the environment she was in.

"Am I...in the car...?"

She opened the car door and wanted to go down to explore the situation, but suddenly she took a breath of cold air.

"Hiss...my feet...are so numb..."

"Hey, are you awake?"

Just as Sasha was rubbing her legs, a head poked out from the roof of the car. Perhaps because of the light, Sasha suddenly discovered that this ordinary face had a pair of star-like eyes.

It was Shirahoshi who slept on the roof of the car all night.

Looking at this familiar face in front of him, some "not so good memories" all returned to Sasha's mind at this moment.

"..."

Even though she was extremely unhappy in her heart, after a short silence, Sasha still solemnly said to Bai Xing:

"Thank you for saving me yesterday."

"It's just a small matter." Bai Xing retracted his head, grabbed the edge of the car with both hands and turned it over, "Speaking of which, are you alone? A lone wolf? Or do you work as a team?"

"Of course I'm the one who... suffered! Mann!"

Sasha was shocked. He had disappeared for a whole night, and he had even hung up Mann's communication before. His friends must have been worried to death now!

Thinking of this, she quickly called him.

"Mann?" Bai Xing felt that the name was inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't remember the person. Seeing that Sasha's call hadn't been connected yet, he simply asked:

"This Mann... is the captain of your team? Doesn't it feel like it's okay? Why didn't he take any action when you were in such danger before?"

Unexpectedly, Sasha glared at him fiercely, "What do you know!"

"Mann takes good care of everyone in the team. He pays attention to everyone's situation when performing tasks, and he also distributes money very neatly afterwards.

Do you know how difficult it is to find such a team in Night City? Most people only care about profit!

For the sake of profit, even if they were fighting side by side for a second, they would immediately stab their teammates in the back! Then they would tear their teammates apart and sell them for money!"

"And...and yesterday...it was my own insistence..."

Bai Xing made a look of realization, nodded and said: "I see, speaking of which, I don't know your name yet? My name is Bai Xing, what about you?"

"Sasha, White Star...ah!" Sasha also felt that the name was somewhat familiar, but before he could ask more questions, Mann's communication was connected.

A face full of anxiety appeared in Sasha's field of vision.

"Sasha? Sasha, is that you! Great! You're still alive! What happened to you yesterday? Damn! You're worrying us to death, you know!"

"Yes... I'm sorry..." Sasha lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong, "Yesterday I..."

"Okay, no need to say any more, are you injured? Where are you now? We will go find you right away!"

"No, no, I'm safe. I'll go over there. We'll meet at the Afterlife Bar."

"That's alright. We'll meet you at the bar next time. Move quickly. Everyone is waiting for you. Don't say sorry this time."

"Well..." Sasha nodded and ended the communication.

On the side, Bai Xing was leaning against the car door, checking his email with a frown on his face.

Muammar: Bai Xing! How did you do it! How could you just pretend to be a virus and make such a big fuss? Clients have told you not to do anything too eye-catching! Don't betray everyone's trust in you, that's it. Money.

I'll call you soon.

Bai Xing looked at the newly arrived 9,000 euros and sighed heavily.

"Oh... I originally said it was 12,000..." He closed the email and turned to look at Sasha: "Have you finished the phone call?"

"Well, I'm going to the next life to find my companion. Let's just say goodbye. Anyway, I still want to thank you..."

"No, thank you, no need." Bai Xing shook his head and said, "Take me with you."

"You want to go too? Why?"

"It's all thanks to you that I made such a big fuss. I was paid a full 12,000 yuan for yesterday's order! Now it's fine, my middleman deducted the money from me."

"You have to make up for the losses here."

"That's it, no problem, I'll take you to see Mann." Sasha thought the reason was, but it turned out to be money. "Don't worry, Mann is very loyal and will definitely satisfy you."

of compensation.”

"Okay, it's not too late, let's set off now!"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

Seeing that Bai Xing wanted to get into the driver's seat again, Sasha quickly stopped him and said word by word:

"This time, I'll drive the car!"

"Okay, okay." Bai Xing said it didn't matter, as long as he could get compensation, so he walked to the back seat, opened the door and sat in.

"Why are you standing there, let's go quickly."

——————————

The Afterlife Club located in Watson District is the heart of Night City and the favorite place for mercenaries to gather. Here, you can feel the various "breathings" of Night City.

The big guys gathered together and were in a state of dissipation.

Legends such as Old Snake, Morgan Blackhand, Johnny Silverhand, etc. have all drank here, and the Queen who was born afterward - Roger, is even more incredible.

It is said that all the legends of Night City are gathered in the cemetery, but Rogge is an exception——

Night City, a rare living legend!

More than fifty years ago, a group of people attacked Arasaka Tower and detonated a nuclear bomb there. Afterwards, a large number of people, both close and distant, were purged.

Only Roger survived.

It is said that if you can have a glass of wine with Rogge, please, brother, you will become famous, and you will be completely popular.

The next day, oh no, you will receive acquaintances and commissions from various big shots that night.

Of course, just do this kind of thing in your dreams. After all, people who can be appreciated by Rogge are like water in the desert, very few.

"Go in."

Emerick, who was watching the door, saw Bai Xing and Sasha and opened the door readily.

On the way to the appointed private room, Sasha glanced at Bai Xing, who had his hands in his pockets and an expressionless face, and couldn't help but curiously asked:

"Have you been here before?"

"I've been here twice, what's wrong?"

"It's okay." Sasha looked away, "The Afterlife Bar is not that easy to enter. Emerick won't open the door to just anyone.

Do you know how many commissions Mann and I completed before we were qualified? It was a long time."

"Yeah……"

Bai Xing said he didn't feel anything at all. When he first came to the hospital, it was because a middleman asked him to meet here.

Dexter Deshawn, this name can be ranked among the middlemen in the entire Night City.

It is said that anyone who can do business with him will be successful in the future, but Bai Xing disagrees. Why is he not rich yet?

And this person... he doesn't like it very much. Isn't this the guy who tricked V to death in the game plot?

Therefore, after that cooperation, Bai Xing never approached this bastard again and refused to accept any of his commissions.

Bai Xing doesn't want to be stabbed in the back by a middleman after completing the mission. It's really disgusting.

"We're here."

Bai Xing was in a daze all the way, and before he knew it, he arrived.

"Sasha! You're finally here! We were so worried about you!"

There were six people sitting in the private room. When Sasha came in, a brown muscular man stood up immediately.

Seeing his excited look, the blond sister sitting next to him pulled him down and said, "Okay, stop getting excited. Isn't this okay?"

"Sasha's strength is not weak, so he will definitely be fine."

"What, Dolio! Sasha disappeared so suddenly yesterday and said such words again, how can it not make people worry!"

"That's it! As a senior, I'm worried to death!" A man with punk hair and long modified arms also stood up. He walked over and hugged him familiarly:

"Without Sasha, my lonely heart wouldn't be able to get - ah -!"

There was a flash of lightning, and the man who wanted to do something frivolous instantly fell to the ground.

"Aha! Well done! Damn brother, you deserved it! You just electrocuted him and disabled him for life, Sasha."

On the sofa, a lolita who was sitting with an unrestrained posture gave a strong middle finger to the man on the ground. She had soft green twin tails, and her red pupils looked at the twitching man on the ground with disgust.
