Are you really not afraid of human traffickers at all?
Even if you don't love your child and the relationship between father and son is weak, he is still your son after all.
No wonder River said Joss hoped that her husband would stop caring about the family. For such a husband, it would be okay if he didn't care about the family. I'm afraid that he would become busier as he cares about the family.
"What happened next? How did you deal with it? Waiting for Joss's husband at the bar with the kid? Or did you just call him and scold him?"
"No, I took Dorian back home and handed him over to Joss. The environment in the bar was not suitable for children, and I couldn't let Dorian suffer there. Later, I heard that Joss had a big fight with her husband, and her husband blamed Joss for not calling the police."
"Wait, it's Joss calling
Did you go to find them?"
"No, it was just a coincidence, but Joss's husband thought it was Joss who asked me to go."
Su Xiao is even more speechless.
What kind of century is this "good" husband?
His eldest uncle helped him find his son, but he blamed his wife for not calling the police.
Su Xiao didn't know for a moment whether Joss's husband was stupid or bad.
Didn't he realize at all how serious it was that his son was thrown into the bar by him?
Some people may say that maybe they encounter something temporarily, and if the bar owner knows them, it is reasonable to ask them to take care of them, right?
But Su Xiao doesn't think so.
First of all, if Joss's husband encounters trouble, he should not take his son out;
Secondly, according to what River said, Joss's husband was drunk when he came home.
He came home very drunk, which means something must have happened.
Finally, even if you know the bar owner, let the bar owner take care of it...
Still the same.
Joss The husband left the child to be taken care of by someone he knew, and went away to get drunk. This also shows that the husband Joss is a rotten person who does not know what responsibility is.
Not to mention that he actually had the nerve to blame his wife afterwards.
Why is he so embarrassed?
"Although it is not polite to comment on other people's family affairs, I still want to ask, why did your sister marry her husband when she knew he was such a person?"
"Of course, if there is anything that is inconvenient to mention, don't mention it."
In fact, people like Joss's husband should not get married.
Didn't River say he likes motorcycles and badlands?
Then don't get married. It's great to be free alone.
Americans don't push for marriage, and there are a lot of people who don't get married, and they won't be criticized and made irresponsible remarks by others behind their backs.
In this case, why does Joss's husband still get married?
If you clearly don't want to take on family responsibilities, why do you drag others into trouble? Find someone to torture each other?
"It's not inconvenient. They got married because one day Joss's husband discovered that Joss already had Randy."
So Su Xiao will understand.
If you get pregnant before marriage, you will get married with the son.
Although she was alone, the old lady wouldn't say anything.
But the United States is very strict about abortion.
Many Americans with more traditional ideas and lifestyles believe that abortion is absolutely prohibited.
River opened the chatterbox and continued talking.
"Although Joss's husband is terrible and is simply a piece of white trash, at least he is someone to rely on, even though this support is not very reliable."
"In the first few weeks, Joss cried every night, and it was then that Randy started to learn bad habits."
"It's not that Joss doesn't want to take care of Randy, but as you can see, there is no man at home, so she can only go to work and have to support the other two little ones..."
"Actually, whether Joss's husband is still alive or not, life is very difficult. After all, he still has no money. Su, do you believe that "there is only one disease in the world, and that is the disease of poverty"?"
After saying that, River turned to look at Su Xiao, who shook his head.
"Me? I don't agree or object to this statement. It's not your fault that you are poor. Life is already very difficult. There is no need to torture yourself because of what some people say on the Internet."
"You're a good man, Sue."
"What a coincidence, I happen to think so too."
Chapter 282 Oh! Okay! I won! (4K)
River drove the car to the entrance of "Afterlife". Su Xiao didn't get out of the car in a hurry, but asked first.
"Have you ever been to the "afterlife" before?"
"I've been here before, but I've never been in."
River, a native of Night City, knows what the "afterlife" is.
Queen Rogge of the "afterlife" has far more energy and background than Jerry Forte, so under normal circumstances, Forte does not allow NCPD to go to the "afterlife" to find things.
Although Director Furt represents the White Way, and Rogge is a figure in the underworld, it stands to reason that the underworld should be afraid of the White Way.
But in Night City, the distinction between black and white is sometimes not so obvious.
What's more, Director Furt himself is not clean himself, and sometimes he even needs to ask Roger for help.
Naturally, he didn't want to turn against Rogge.
Of course, as a courtesy, Rogge generally would not make it difficult for Director Furt to be a good person, and for the NCPD, a department that strives to maintain law and order in Night City, Rogge himself also has respect.
River is not surprised that Su Xiao has the qualifications to enter the "afterlife".
After all, Su Xiao is already the head of a club.
"Afterlife" is originally a place to discuss business, and the threshold it sets is just to block people who are too low-level.
The gangster squatting at the door of "Afterlife" looked at the two people walking down the stairs in surprise.
Su Xiao Needless to say, his current reputation in the next life is no worse than that of a legend.
As for the River, although he is not as famous as Su Xiao, he is different from other NCPDs who do not do practical things.
He is very down-to-earth and has sent many people to jail.
prison.
Therefore, although River does not hang out in the world, his legend still remains in the world.
Su Xiao and River ignored the gangsters at the door of "Afterlife" and walked straight to the door of "Afterlife".
As usual, the gate of "Afterlife" blocked the noise, wealth and fame inside, and in front of this gate stood a burly figure.
"Hey, Emmerich."
Emmerich, who always had a straight face, grinned after seeing Su Xiao.
The gangsters who were some distance away from the door were shocked again.
Some of the gangsters who have been here for a long time are okay, but the new gangsters have never seen Emmerich smile at others.
"Su, you haven't been here for a while."
"Where, didn't I just come here not long ago?"
"Maybe it just happened to be wrong. I was on vacation that day," Emmerich crossed his hands and placed them in front of him. He nodded kindly to Su Xiao, "Roger has prepared the room for you, and Claire will take you there."
"Okay, thank you. What would you like to drink? I'll ask Claire to bring it to you later. I'll treat you."
Although Emmerich is Rogge's subordinate, and Su Xiao is not trying to poach Rogge's corner, this man is very fond of Su Xiao, and the two of them have also been in the line of fire together. They can be called good brothers who have been through life and death.
It's not too much to pour a cappuccino for your brother.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I never drink during working hours. This is not what Roger asked me to do, but what I ask of myself. Alcohol can paralyze people's nerves, and my job requires me to stay focused during working hours."
Seeing this, Su Xiao stopped talking, but raised his hands and gave a thumbs up to Emmerich.
Hacking device room inside "Afterlife".
The dark room is filled with various equipment used by hackers.
Lucy, who was sitting on the hacker chair, heard the sound of the door opening and said to Su Xiao, "You're here."
"It's so dark, why don't you turn on the light?"
Su Xiao pointed to the light channel in the room.
I don't know if it's due to the hacker industry, some unwritten rules, or some other reason.
Wherever hackers work, the workroom is either lit with red light or extremely dark.
No.
Let's just say, even if the word "black" is in the name of the profession, there is no need to make the place where you work as dark as the underworld, right?
Lucy smiled.
"This can be regarded as a superstitious idea, because most hackers are very vulnerable when working, so many people think that darkness or dazzling red light can protect us."
"Although I don't particularly believe in this, I'm used to it."
Lucy blinked. "Okay, don't talk about this anymore, the guests are impatient. Su, let's introduce this friend you brought."
Su Xiao nodded and introduced them to the two of them respectively.
"Lucy, this is River. River, this is the Electronic Warfare Specialist I'm telling you, and it's also one of my best friends, Lucy."
"Hello," River greeted Lucy politely, "Su must have told you everything, right?"
Lucy nodded and pushed the hair from his forehead behind his ears.
"Yes, he did."
River knows that whether he can find Randy, or even just know some clues, can only rely on the silver-haired girl in front of him.
Therefore, his attitude can be said to be unprecedentedly good.
Su Xiao has not been in contact with the River for a long time, but he has never seen River be so polite to others.
"Then it's up to you."
"Where."
Lucy's response was also very polite.
Because this is not only the purpose of her coming here, but Su Xiao has also told Lucy on the phone that River will be their companion in the future.
Lucy doesn't know River, but since he is the one chosen by Su Xiao, he can't be wrong.
River took out the computer and placed it on the table at Lucy's instruction.
"This is Randy's laptop, but we can't get in without the password."
"Well, let me take a look."
Lucy sat in front of the laptop, pulled out the black personal cable from his wrist, and plugged it directly into the laptop.
Su Xiao and River stood behind Lucy. River was so nervous that he held his breath involuntarily.
He saw Lucy's eyes shining with a dangerous red light, and knew that the other party was cracking the firewall set up on the computer.
He didn't dare to make a sound or even take a breath for fear of disturbing Lucy.
And just when he had this idea, he saw that the interface that originally required entering a password suddenly changed and he entered the computer desktop.
"Hey! Okay! We're in!"
River's sudden excited voice caused Su Xiao and Lucy to turn their heads and look at him.
"Please forgive me, I was too excited."
"Let's start with the mail."
