Both sides were fighting and retreating.

Return to the scrap station.

"There are people outside, and there are no cars. We can't rush out, so we can only stay here."

Rebecca, who was hiding under the wreckage of a car, was about to emerge, but was forced back by a dense rain of bullets.

Bullets hit the wreckage of the car, sending up sparks like rain.

But the bad luck didn't end there, bad news came one after another.

As one NCPD fired the last bullet.

Others also ran out of ammunition one after another.

The reality is not <Call of Duty>, it is impossible to run around with hundreds of bullets on your back.

The Eden Gang members outside have surrounded the scrap station.

But the reinforcements never arrived.

It's not that Director Furt treats them as abandoned children.

Instead, we need to mobilize heavily equipped SWAT units from City Center to Santo Domingo, and we have to pass through Heywood in the middle, which is quite a journey.

If you encounter another traffic jam, you will be delayed even longer on the road.

The Eden Gang members who surrounded them outside also discovered that the NCPD were out of bullets.

They were obviously not prepared to miss this great opportunity.

While suppressing them with fierce firepower, they slowly approached and prepared to use grenades to deal with them.

The NCPD, who were suppressed and hid in the scrapyard, realized that they might not be able to survive to see the sun the next day.

Everyone's face looked extremely ugly.

Lucy is leaning next to Su Xiao, while Rebecca is on the other side.

The three of them formed a small triangle formation.

This can take care of the 360-degree omnidirectional direction without blind spots.

Feeling Lucy's trembling back, Su Xiao comforted her.

"Don't worry, we will leave alive soon."

Lucy said nothing, but Rebecca said with a sad face, "Su, don't you understand our situation? We can't get out."

She doesn't blame Su Xiao for dragging her into this desperate situation.

From the moment she entered the world of mercenaries, she knew that this day would come sooner or later.

It's just a matter of time.

Therefore, she does not hate Su Xiao and will not complain.

But Su Xiao said they could leave.

This makes Rebecca incomprehensible.

In response to Rebecca's doubts, Su Xiao showed a gentle smile.

He pointed to the top of his head and grinned. "Didn't you hear? Our reinforcements have arrived!"

The sharp air flow made Su Xiao's white windbreaker make a sound.

Lucy and Rebecca couldn't help but look up.

However, I saw several heavy-duty aircraft hovering in the sky at some point.

The thick armored body is also painted with the Riot Control Unit logo.

The Eden Gang members outside suddenly panicked.

Shouting, he picked up his weapon and fired into the air.

But it is a pity that their weapons are of no use against the Heavy Armored Hovercar, which can move freely through the war zone.

Instead, the cannon of the heavy aircraft swept towards the Eden Gang members like a gust of wind and rain.

Eden Gang, who was so aggressive just now, is like a leek at this moment.

It fell in pieces.

In front of a machine gun that rotates 3,600 times a breath, the BUFF blessed by faith and fanaticism finally disappeared.

Not one or two, but rows and rows of companion bodies, ruthlessly torn into pieces by large-caliber cannons.

Just the first wave of strafing, the number of people in Eden Gang dropped sharply

Almost half.

Faced with this horrific scene, no matter how fanatical the guy is, he can only run away with his head in his arms.

They finally lost the courage to resist and fled in all directions.

But Riot Control Unit obviously doesn't intend to let them go.

Heavy Armored Hovercar all followed him and chased them separately.

The appearance of Riot Control Unit reversed the dead situation in one fell swoop.

Rebecca sits on the ground and relaxes.

But as if she thought of something, she drooped her head and looked apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Sue, I damaged your car."

"How can this be considered broken by you?"

Su Xiao rubbed Rebecca's head.

If it had been anyone else, Rebecca would have gone berserk long ago.

Because this action is usually done by adults to children.

And what Rebecca hates the most is that others treat her like a child.

But she didn't get angry.

Firstly, I feel guilty, and secondly, the person who made this move is Su Xiao.

Rebecca raised his head and looked at him carefully. "Aren't you angry?"

"Of course not."

This SUV was given to him by McCoy when Su Xiao left Balk Family.

In fact, it's not expensive at all.

If you really want to say it, it may just be a thought.

But whether it is Su Xiao or McCoy, they are both pragmatists.

If something is gone, it's gone, and it's not like I broke it on purpose.

How could there be so much nonsense?

"However, it's really inconvenient without a car."

"How about I call Mann and ask them to pick us up?"

Su Xiao waved his hand and declined Rebecca's kindness. "No, I'll just call a Delamain Taxi over."

Immediately, he dialed the customer service number of Delamain using Tactical Goggles: "Lao De, come and pick me up. My location is..."

"Copy that, Mr. Su, come right away."

After the phone call, Su Xiao found Rebecca looking at him in astonishment.

"You can actually afford to sit Delamain Taxi?"

People who can afford Delamain Taxi in Night City are just like people who take taxis in Japan.

How wealthy must this be?

"Not only can I afford it, but I also ordered Excellence Package for everyone in my team."

Now Rebecca is really envious.

It would be nice if I had met Su Xiao when I first started playing.

Tech Weapons, Smart Weapons can be used casually.

There are also bulletproof combat uniforms.

Even Delamain Taxi and Excellence Package have one copy per person.

But envy is envy, but it is a pity that time cannot be turned back.

What has already happened cannot be changed.

At this time, the few NCPD survivors and Female Cop, who had injured his leg, limped over.

Chapter 86: Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite (4K)

"If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to hold on until now, and we would all be dead inside."

"This is what I, as a Night City citizen, should do."

"Based on your awareness, City Hall should award you a medal."

The NCPDs were immediately in awe and cast grateful glances at Su Xiao and others.

One of the police officers seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said, "By the way, is it Riot Control Unit that you called?"

Lucy and Rebecca were stunned.

The latter did not know the truth.

The former knows the real situation.

But both of them were very emotionally intelligent and did not speak. Instead, they both turned to look at Su Xiao.

Su Xiao had no polish on his face, as if he really didn't know anything. He shook his head. "No."

"That's really strange. At first we thought they were reinforcements sent by the bureau, but after contacting us, we found out that the reinforcements were still at Heywood."

"If it wasn't Riot Control Unit you called, nor was it sent by the bureau, then how could they happen to be here?"

Su Xiao asked pretending to be confused, the expression on his face was perfectly disguised. "Could it be a coincidence?"

In fact, Riot Control Unit was recruited by Subnet who had previously asked Lucy to hack into Riot Control Unit.

As a result, the lives of many NCPD officers present were saved.

Logically speaking, there is nothing to hide.

But don't forget, as an ordinary citizen, hacking into Subnet of Riot Control Unit is no joke.

If you can't understand it, you can try to replace Riot Control Unit with the real police intranet.

When you think about it, do you immediately know how serious it is?

Of course, there is another word called emergency evacuation.

It refers to the act of harming another legal interest under unavoidable circumstances to protect a larger legal interest from an ongoing danger.

But the problem is that Su Xiao is not sure whether Night City has such a thing as emergency evacuation.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, it is best not to admit it.

Anyway, when hacking Subnet of Riot Control Unit, Lucy also used the hacker chair in the Eden Gang base.

As long as they don't admit it, you can't find them.

Lying on the high-end leather seat, Rebecca has never been in such a high-end car.

Like a kitten sleeping on a soft cat

As if sitting in a nest, he squinted his eyes comfortably.

Now she finally knows why the taxi fare of Delamain Taxi is so expensive.
