"Hug, sorry..."

As if he knew what she was going to do, Su Xiao took out a box of tissue paper.

He bought this together when he was just buying drinks.

"Take it."

Lucy took the paper and ran away quickly.

About ten minutes later, Lucy finally came back.

She seemed to have cried for a while, but her mood was generally stable.

She sat down next to Su Xiao again, bent her legs, and wrapped her arms around her knees.

"My full name is Lucyna Kushinada (Lucyna Kushinada), I am of mixed Japanese and Polish descent. I grew up in Arasaka facilities in other countries..."

She is talking.

He is listening.

Even the night breeze that never stops on the rooftop is listening quietly at this moment.

All this time, Lucy has no one to talk to.

He has been evading pursuit and on the run.

There is no one you can trust.

The secrets in her heart tortured her.

The depression made her miserable.

Now, it's all pouring out.

I feel much more comfortable.

But it also means leaving your destiny to the young man in front of you.

If he reports himself to Arasaka.

Then you'll be finished.

This time, Su Xiao no longer made Lucy feel lonely and unable to fit into the team.

He hugged her.

Hold her in your arms.

"We are a team, your business is my business. I will help you hide the secret. Arasaka, I will help you carry it."

The softness in my heart was touched.

Lucy, who was lying on Su Xiao's shoulders, burst into tears.

At the same time, subtle changes occurred in his thinking.

Lucy Suddenly felt that it no longer mattered whether we went to the moon or not.

Now, he is her moon.

Chapter 78 The way you two brother and sister get along is really special (4K)

Su Xiao was woken up by a burst of fragrance.

In the kitchen, two women were busy working.

V walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate and placed it on the table.

Seeing that he was awake, he smiled and said to him.

"Hey, you're awake. Just in time, breakfast is almost ready."

"Have you... talked?"

Su Xiao looks weird.

Last night, he was so nervous that he took Lucy to the rooftop to get some fresh air.

Later, the two came down from above.

Lucy wants to go back.

But Su Xiao saw that it was too late, so he took it upon himself to leave Lucy in V's apartment.

There is only one bed in V's apartment, but there are two rows of couches.

Su Xiao lets Lucy choose.

I am sleeping

Lucy Pick the rest.

Now I see V and Lucy making breakfast together in the kitchen. It is obvious that these two girls have also communicated.

"What, I'm sorry, I took it upon myself to keep Lucy without your consent."

"Hey, what are you talking about? It's too outrageous."

V paused and continued.

"By the way, Su, you should call Jack and ask him if he's up and if he wants to come to our place for breakfast. Or should we meet at Old Wei's place and bring him some."

"Old Wei? Meet?"

Su Xiao scratched his head.

I always feel like I've missed something.

Lucy's voice floated out from the kitchen, coming to Su Xiao's rescue. "V, Su was in seclusion for half a month, he probably doesn't know about that yet, right?"

"Oh, yes, it's my problem, I ignored it."

Later, with V's explanation, Su Xiao realized what was going on.

It turns out that today is the day when Old Wei operates on her and Jack and installs the fourth generation "Kerenzi Ke Fu".

The principle adopted by Victor is to start with the difficult and then the easy, first with the urgent and then with the slow.

When Su Xiao was in retreat, Victor had been busy with Lucy's affairs.

He first spent ten days using various methods to help Lucy adjust his body to its best condition.

Then the actual surgery began.

Change all the counterfeit goods marked red in Lucy's body into the genuine prosthetics Su Xiao got from Rogge.

The surgery was successful and there were no problems.

But Old Wei did not relax.

Instead, he insisted on keeping Lucy in the hospital for 24 hours for observation.

After three days, it was confirmed that Lucy had no rejection reaction or side effects.

Only then was she allowed to leave the clinic.

V and Jack's surgeries were ranked behind Victor.

That is today.

Su Xiao had been in seclusion for half a month before. Everyone felt that this matter was not urgent and they were afraid of disturbing Su Xiao, so they did not tell him.

After breakfast, the three of them went out.

In addition to maintenance elevators, the super skyscraper H10 also has two passenger elevators for residents and a freight elevator.

One of the passenger elevators provides direct access to the parking lot.

And it's not far away. It's less than ten meters away from V's house and turn right.

However, when the three of them came to the elevator that could lead directly to the parking lot, they found that two women were already standing in front of the elevator.

One of the women angrily kicked the elevator door, which was closed.

"This broken elevator broke down again, this is the third time."

"I paid someone to fix it the first two times, and they said they could take care of it for at least a year. They were both liars."

"I have to go talk to the real estate agent."

They passed by Su Xiao and others. One of the women glanced at Su Xiao and gave a kind reminder.

"Do you want to take that elevator? No chance, that thing is broken and can't be pried open. You can either go down the stairs or take another elevator. It's up to you."

Su Xiao thanked the other party and turned to look at V and Lucy.

"Looks like we'll have to take the other elevator, ladies."

The sun's rays fall down the central patio of the super skyscraper, and dust scatters in the air, flying all over the sky, forming the Tyndall effect.

Night City's super skyscraper is not just a high-rise building.

It is an upgraded and enhanced version of Kowloon Walled City.

Every super skyscraper is equivalent to a small town.

The narrow public space is used by the residents who give full play to their subjective initiative.

Fast food restaurants, breakfast shops, convenience stores, grocery stores, boxing gyms, and gun stores.

There was even a holographic billboard placed in the aisle, and the display screen hanging on the far wall played the advertisement Trauma Team "Seven minutes to save your life, or your money back".

Trauma Team's insurance is divided into levels.

The monthly premium for the lowest level ordinary member is about a few hundred euros.

Although this super skyscraper looks like a place where only poor people live, in fact, the people who can live here are at least not the lowest class.

"Hey, V, why are you up so early?" The speaker was the gun shop owner, a bald man. He stood behind the window with iron bars and looked at Su Xiao and others, "Are these people your friends?"

V nodded.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Wilson. As you can see, I am the owner of a gun shop. How about you? Do you want to come in and take a look?"

"Let's talk about it later when we have a chance. We still have something to do."

"Okay, okay, no problem."

In the elevator, the host of WNS looked serious.

"Hello everyone, local news is being broadcast now, a solemn event - Arasaka Soul Festival is coming."

"To enhance the atmosphere, exquisite multi-story roller coasters will appear on the streets of Night City."

"During this festival, many pipa masters will perform for the public on site, and traditional Japanese Noh theater performances will also be performed."

"This festival will be fully sponsored by Arasaka Corporation. What makes the public even more excited is that even Hana Arasaka himself has announced that he will attend this roller coaster parade."

"The entire WNS staff wishes you a wonderful holiday

Have a happy and healthy time, everyone, please enjoy it! After a short rest... Cyber-cyborg psychosis, rumor or reality? Be back soon!"

Get out of the elevator and Su Xiao go to drive.

V and Lucy are waiting outside.

Pull out the car and pick them up.

Go to Wolf Bar and pick up Jack as well.
