Both of them thought there would be a fierce battle.
As a result, no accidents occurred until entering Santo Domingo.
Jack touched the ball’s head and laughed: “I didn’t expect it to go so smoothly. I thought there would be an exciting chase.”
“It’s better to find excitement in Mewtwo, but not in reality.”
Lidya Su also breathed a sigh of relief.
This is his first time delivering goods.
He wondered if the border guards would be like this when McCoy and the others were delivering goods, asking so many questions.
Anyway, he always felt that the person at the customs gave him a bad feeling.
Therefore, he held a weapon all the way.
Jack was also tense and didn’t take his foot off the accelerator at all.
Fortunately, it was calm all the way here.
Night City is divided into several districts.
Jack lives in “Haywood”.
To enter Night City from the south, you need to pass through “Pacific Island” or “Santo Domingo” before entering Heywood.
In terms of distance, it is closer to Taipingzhou.
But Jack would rather take the long way through Santo Domingo than take the shortcut.
“Why?”
“It’s like a war zone there. There are firefights every day, and people are dying every hour. Even the NCPD won’t go there.”
“Doesn’t the mayor care? Where is the army? Please help.”
“There is no army in Night City. As for the mayor, he really didn’t let it go.”
“Then how does he manage it?”
“He separated Taipingzhou and declared that Taipingzhou no longer belongs to Night City. This resulted in a significant reduction in shootings and murder rates and earned him a lot of votes.”
Lidya Su: “…”
He felt that he might not be able to understand how the minds of Western politicians worked in his entire life.
“It won’t be a long detour. We’ll be there soon. Don’t worry. The security in Santo Domingo is much better than in Taipingzhou. You’ll be fine.”
Jack just finished speaking.
A Goodra car quickly passed in front of the car that Su Xiao and Jack were riding in.
Immediately afterwards, two more black off-road vehicles carrying muscular men followed closely.
The muscle car’s door also has the Animal Gang logo painted on it.
“Is this what you call good public order?”
Jack was a little embarrassed.
“Maybe they are going somewhere to participate in a gang war. Don’t worry, they won’t drive on the viaduct…”
This time, before Jack could even finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by the sound of violent gunfire.
The Animal Gang on the black off-road vehicle didn’t even care that this was a highway, so they fired their light machine guns at the Goodra sedan ahead.
The flying bullets left countless bullet holes in Gudela’s car.
However, the Goodra car that was attacked seemed to be unharmed.
Instead, at the same time that the bullet belt of the light machine gun was discharged, a lolita with twin ponytails leaned out from the roof of the car.
Loli held a colorful kinetic energy shotgun in her hand.
Directly blow up one of the black off-road vehicles. (Monthly fee group 694936135)
Another black off-road vehicle hurriedly went around the side of the Goodra car
.
The Goodra sedan swung its tail and pinned the black off-road vehicle to the guardrail of the viaduct.
The guardrail and the body of the black off-road vehicle continued to create violent sparks.
Then an arm stuck out from the car window.
The arm deformed, revealing a thick muzzle.
The next moment, a mass of flesh and blood burst out from the cab of the black off-road vehicle.
The off-road vehicle, which lost its driver, lost control and rolled several times.
Countless pieces were scattered all over the place.
a mess.
Fortunately, apart from the two parties involved in the shootout, there were only Su Xiao and Jack on this viaduct.
When the gunfight broke out, Jack stepped on the brakes with experience and reversed to a safe distance.
It wasn’t until the battle was over and the Goodra sedan was gone that Jack drove on.
“It looks like the gunfight is over,” Jack kept staring at the direction in which the Goodra car was leaving. “The driver of that car actually had a projectile launching system built into his arm.”
Su Xiao looked at Jack as if he wanted it very much.
“Is that expensive?”
“It depends on the model. The most powerful and latest model is of course the most expensive, but the projectile launch system that guy used seems to be two versions behind the one used before.”
“There was a grand shootout on the viaduct, wouldn’t the NCPD come?”
“This is Santo Domingo, not places like Civic Center, Charter Hill, North Oak, etc. where police are heavily deployed. So in Night City, everything can be saved, except weapons and prosthetics. These two things can save lives… You should look at your expression and relax, okay? You won’t need to be so nervous in the future. “
“Are you saying that the security of Night City will improve in the future?”
“I mean, you’ll get used to it gradually.”
Chapter 12 Coke with ice? Are you taking care of yourself here?
Jack’s home is in the Heywood Valley area, which is the government district of Night City.
Owned by the town hall located there.
The place is rich, clean, and has little crime.
Tranquil parks border a row of elegant skyscrapers.
But this peaceful scene is limited to the northern part of the valley area, where the city hall is located.
If you go south, things start to get worse.
The buildings on the streets were ugly and shabby, and they were also hotbeds of crime and poverty.
The Valentino Gang and the Sixth Street Gang often fight over territory.
…
Jack pulled up to a garage.
“This is where I live, but let’s go have something to eat and take a shower first, what do you think?”
Of course Lidya Su had no objection.
The Wolf Bar, not far from the garage, is run by Jack’s mother, Mrs. Wells.
On the back door, there is also a line of eye-catching warnings written in Spanish, English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, specifically to warn those street gangsters with ill intentions, insufficient brain capacity, and overflowing courage.
——”It takes ten minutes to call the police, but it only takes a few tenths of a second for me to give you a bullet. I hope you can think through it before you act irrationally.”
With just such a warning, one can imagine the character of Mrs. Wells.
Very good, very strong.
It was already very late at this time, and even the bar was closed.
In the bar, there were two people cleaning up.
“Pepi, you go back first, I can do the rest by myself.”
“Okay, good night, Mrs. Wells.”
Pepi the bartender left through the front door.
Mrs. Wells saw Jack and a young man come in through the back door.
She immediately stopped cleaning and frowned: “Jack, why did you come back so late again?”
“It’s necessary for work, it’s necessary for work.”
“Then you can’t stay out so late. Do you know how worried I am about you?”
“iVirgen santísimo, ma (Oh my god, mom), please stop saying it, am I okay? Very good.”
Seeing that his mother still had something to say, Jack quickly pushed Su Xiao out.
“Here, let me introduce you, this is Su. Su, this is my mother, you can just call her Mrs. Wells.”
“Good evening, Mrs. Wells.”
How could Mrs. Wells not understand her son’s little thoughts?
She glared at Jack, then smiled, stretched out her hand and shook Su Xiao’s hand.
“I can see that you’ve been through a lot, so go take a shower first and I’ll get you something to eat.”
Su Xiao thanked her and went to the bathroom upstairs.
After taking a shower, Jack and Mrs. Wells were sitting around a table.
There were also several burritos on the table.
“Su, you figured it out, come and try my mother’s craftsmanship.”
Lidya Su came to the table and sat down.
“Aren’t you going to take a shower first?”
“No rush, let’s fill our stomachs first.”
Mrs. Wells stood up: “Would you like anything to drink, Sue?”
“Is there any Coke? If not, water will do.”
“Mom, get me a glass of ginger beer by the way.”
“Look at me, look at you, you’re still drinking so late, your body doesn’t want it anymore?”
Jack chuckled and didn’t refute.
After all, Mrs. Wells still brought Jack the wine.
although
However, the wine in the glass is about the same height as a pair of highly myopic lenses.
“Then you eat slowly, I’ll go to bed first.”
“Bye Mom.”
“Good night, Mrs. Wells.”
After eating and drinking, and waiting for Jack to take a shower, Su Xiao returned to the garage with Jack.
The garage has two rooms, and the outer room is both a garage and a gym.
There are also several posters of beautiful women hanging on the wall.
There is another room inside where Jack sleeps.
There is no bed, just a sofa.
Jack graciously gave up the sofa to Lidya Su and slept on the floor.
…
“Good morning, Night City!”
