So in Night City, he set up several hiding places.

Here is one of them.

However, continuing to hide is not an option.

I can only hide for a while, but not forever.

As long as you stay in Night City, it will only be a matter of time before Tiger Claws Gang finds you.

So he decided to run away and leave Night City.

A few hours later, when Delamain Taxi left Night City, crossing the border.

What appeared outside the car window was the same desert, and when Sunset Motel came into view...

The snakehead breathed a sigh of relief.

However, being cautious, he did not get off Delamain Taxi immediately.

Instead, I observed it for a while first.

After confirming that no one is ambushing nearby.

Then I got off the car.

Walk into the motel and find the agreed upon room number.

Knocked on the door.

The door opened in response.

Inside is a double room.

Nomads from Serpent Nation is already waiting inside.

The leader is still wearing an old-style Exoskeleton Armor.

No one else spoke.

McCoy got straight to the point, "Are you ready for the money?"

The smuggler took out a credit chip.

"This is half of what was agreed upon. The remaining half can't be given to you until I confirm it's safe."

The smuggler thought for a while and then added, "Friend, this is not directed at you. I understand that in your industry, there are no rules and no rules, right?"

McCoy takes the credit chip and checks the balance on it first.

The number is indeed half of what was promised.

In the "transportation" business, it is true that half is paid first, and the remaining half is paid after the work is completed.

McCoy seems to agree with the snakehead, "It makes sense. Without rules, there is no rule."

The snake head smiled.

Relax.

However, McCoy's next words made the snakehead's smile suddenly freeze on his face.

"Since you know so much, why did you betray Miss Chihana?"

The snakehead froze on the spot. "You... you..."

Then he turned around and wanted to run.

But Nomads, who was already prepared, had already blocked the door.

The smuggler reached out for his gun with a desperate look on his face, but before his hand even touched the handle of the gun, he was punched down by McCoy.

When Su Xiao and others came to Sunset Motel, they saw the snake head tied up in the hotel room.

"It's beautifully done."

"That's right, you don't even think about who did it."

Su Xiao took a step aside, pointed at a middle-aged man wearing glasses and slicked back hair, and said, "This is the priest's representative."

The middle-aged man smiled and stepped forward to shake hands enthusiastically.

"It's Mr. McCoy, right? Mr. Sebastian Ibarra asked me to send my regards to you."

"Originally, according to the rules, when receiving goods from Nomads, the price must be reduced."

"But Mr. McCoy, you are friends of Mr. Su."

"Therefore, Mr. Sebastian Ibarra specifically stated that no matter what the quality of the goods, they will be purchased at market prices."

McCoy is very satisfied.

He was already prepared to be priced down.

But I didn't expect that I could still charge the market price.

In this case, it would be equivalent to the priest taking the initiative to give up the profits to them.

And this is all because they are friends of Su Xiao.

This made McCoy sigh.

Who would have thought that the young man who was rescued by him and almost raped by Random Blade Society would now be able to make a lot more profits just because of his acquaintance.

McCoy pointed at the snake head that was tied up with five flowers.

"Do you want us to deal with this person for you, or should you leave it to you?"

PS: Current progress (29000/63000)

Okay, almost half of it.

Keep up the good work.

Chapter 74: It doesn't cost any money, just trust me (4K)

"We'll do it ourselves."

After Su Xiao finished speaking, Jack stepped forward, picked up the snake's head, and walked out.

"By the way, this is what you want."

McCoy handed over another black plastic bag, which was wrapped so tightly that it was impossible to tell what it was from the outside.

Su Xiao doesn't even open it.

Take it and transfer it to McCoy through Tactical Goggles.

He knew that McCoy and the others, the original Buckle Family people, were having a hard time with Serpent Nation.

Therefore, although the money is a lot, it may take many days for me to earn it back.

But for McCoy and others, it is more important, money that may save lives.

The things have been obtained, Su Xiao has no intention of leaving them anymore.

There was plenty of time to reminisce, but it was obvious that neither the priest's men nor McCoy wanted to be disturbed.

Therefore, Su Xiao waved his hand to McCoy in a cool and unrestrained manner. "Then you guys can talk slowly, we're leaving first, and we'll keep in touch when we have time in the future."

After leaving Sunset Motel, we drove straight for half an hour and drove to a desolate wilderness.

"That's pretty much it. That's it."

Chihana got out of the car and stopped other people who wanted to get off. "I can handle the rest below myself."

She took out the snake head from the trunk.

Ignoring the snakehead's plea for mercy, he dragged him deeper into the wilderness.

After a few minutes, she came back.

"Has everything been taken care of?"

Chihana wiped the blood from his face. "Everything has been taken care of."

Su Xiao didn't ask any more questions.

"Then let's go back. I'll take you back to Wolf Bar first."

V heard the meaning of Su Xiao's words, and she turned to look at Su Xiao strangely.

"What about you?"

"I'm going somewhere to do something."

Jack heard this and geared up. "Don't call us brothers when we fight? Isn't it too boring?"

"No, let's just talk about business. Okay, don't ask anymore. I'll tell you later."

See Su Xiao doesn't want to say.

The people in the car stopped asking further questions.

Su Xiao started the SUV and drove them back on the road.

"Jack, you have a more important task... to convince Mrs. Wells to accept Miss Chihana and Ryoko."

Jack patted his chest. "What does this mean? My mother will definitely like them."

"Don't talk too much, or you might get slapped in the face."

"Hahahahahaha--"

Send Jack and others to Wolf Bar.

Su Xiao left the SUV with him by the way.

This will be more convenient if they need to use a car.

I ordered a Delamain Taxi.

Take yourself to the Afterlife Nightclub located at Chinatown in Watson District.

Emmerich is still fulfilling his duty, guarding the door of the next life.

See Su Xiao come over.

Nod slightly.

and got out of the way.

Several gangsters who were squatting outside were unhappy when they tried to get in but were blocked.

"Why can that kid get in, but we can't?"

Emmerich glanced at the gangsters who were talking as if they were looking at trash.

Then he continued to use his burly body to block the door.

Su Xiao also heard the shouts of those gangsters unwillingly.

But...

Just a few gangsters.

Don't even think about ruining his good mood for the day.

Claire, who was pouring drinks at the bar, looked up and saw him.

A thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"Su, that's the right name, right?"

Su Xiao gave a friendly smile, "Yes, you have a good memory."
