Although he knew that Lin Mo was by no means an ordinary person, Kitagawa Hao still felt the unevenness of the world after hearing such comments about "having too much money to spend".
To be honest, if you can ride in a top-notch sports car like The Sword in the Stone, how can I guess Lin Jun's background?
Kitagawa Hao sighed. What he didn't understand the most was why Lin Mo, who grew up with a golden key in his mouth, chose the path of a marginalized person. Besides, do his family members know about this?
The most unbearable thing is his talent. He is rich, good-looking, talented and powerful, and has a vicious heart that kills people without blinking an eye... The key point is that he is only 16 years old.
Sometimes Hiroshi Kitagawa would lament that God must have had a brain cramp to create such a monster.
If this kind of proud man of heaven does not get lost halfway, then he will definitely stand at the top of the Night City in the future and make the whole Night City tremble.
As for whether he will become a legend in the grave or a living legend in the future, it is unclear.
"We are a team. If you can ask me to borrow money to improve yourself, I'm happy before it's too late. You don't want to be a marginalized person at the bottom forever." Lin Mo said with a smile.
Kitagawa Hao smiled with relief, feeling that what Lin Mo said was indeed reasonable, but he still grasped the most critical point of this question and asked:
"Aren't Mr. Lin afraid that I will cheat you out of your money?"
"Although I hate to say this, please don't compare your annual income with my pocket money." Lin Mo said lightly.
Kitagawa Hiroshi smiled heartily and was not offended by this sentence:
"Then when I get the chance next time, I will definitely borrow money from you, Mr. Lin. Then, Mr. Lin, don't feel bad."
"If you want to borrow money to buy a house, or if you want to borrow money to buy a sports car, then I will really feel sad for a while." Lin Mo teased.
Beichuan Hao waved his hand quickly: "How could this happen..."
Lin Mo smiled and did not continue the topic.
As the two of them were chatting, they unknowingly came to where the sports car was parked.
This time Kitagawa Hiroshi is still driving. Under his driving, the Sword in the Stone is like a sharp knife on the road, piercing the gaps between all the vehicles. Almost no vehicle dares to compete with this kind of sports car whose engine power is on the edge of the law. Contest.
Kitagawa Hiroshi seems to have regained his former driving skills. When he was able to get into the position of team leader in the Tiger Claw Gang, it is not like he has never driven a sports car.
If the Sword in the Stone is like a shadowless lightning in Lin Mo's hands, then it is a dexterous and agile swimming fish in Beichuan Hao's hands.
Although the speed of the car did not reach the maximum speed, the street shadows passing by on the road all showed the rapid speed of the car. At this speed, Lin Mo did not feel any lag.
Kitagawa Hiroshi can always find the most suitable opportunity to dodge the vehicle in front of him, and then continue to move forward. Judging from his expression, it seems that he still has some energy left.
As for traffic lights and traffic rules?
Sorry, for marginalized people, this thing almost doesn't exist. What's more, Night City's police force is in short supply and there is no room for a profession like traffic police.
"Sanhua Hotel, do you know where it is?" Lin Mo suddenly asked Beichuan Hao next to him in a low voice, for fear of disturbing him while driving.
Although when I drive myself, I don’t think there will be any problem with the vehicle driving fast.
But when Lin Mo was sitting in the passenger seat, he felt strangely uneasy about the speed.
He was not worried for his own safety, but for those who were innocent.
When Renfield was developing this craziest sports car, he naturally also considered the safety of those car owners who were like crazy and drove their cars to the extreme speed.
The body shell of Sword in the Stone uses a new generation of synthetic metal and synthetic crystal, which keeps the vehicle light but also has the hardness of a military armored vehicle!
If it collides with other vehicles, the unlucky person can only be someone else, not the driver of The Sword in the Stone.
"Sanhua Hotel, I did my homework when you had the operation. It is a long-established hotel located in the industrial area in the north of the city. It specializes in providing services to ordinary employees who work outside." Kitagawa Hao talked and looked ahead.
"That little girl is too big-hearted to dare to go to a chaotic place like the industrial zone in the north of the city."
Lin Mo looked worried, and he was not sure whether he could rescue the person this time.
The industrial area in the north of the city located in Watson District was once a prosperous place.
However, because Arasaka Company settled in Night City and suppressed all the local snake companies in Watson District with the power of a powerful dragon, this industrial area also fell into a state of decline.
The workers working here can barely make a living in the few factories that have not closed down.
The Whirlpool Gang is the largest gang entrenched in this area. Because of their existence, the entire industrial area in the north of the city has been classified as an extremely dangerous area by the NCPD. The NCPD even said that it would not waste police resources to manage the security of this area.
"Who knows, young people always have illusions about the world. They always have luck in their hearts and feel that they are a unique exception. I have seen many times where they risk their own safety in pursuit of temptation." Hiroshi Kitagawa Give the evaluation indifferently.
Everyone will always have luck in facing a certain opportunity, but it's just a matter of more or less.
Lin Mo was silent, as if he had recalled something, and it took him a long time to speak.
The tone seemed to be reciting a memorial message from a distant place:
"When you go into war as a kid, there's this illusion that other people are going to die and you're not...and then when you get seriously injured for the first time, that illusion goes away."
Kitagawa Hao raised his eyebrows: "Lin Jun has also watched "For Whom the Bell Tolls"?"
"Just a little." Lin Mo said.
Kitagawa Hao nodded, did not ask further questions, and instead said:
"By the way, I think the opponent this time is probably not from the Uzumaki Gang. Those lunatics don't have the habit of kidnapping and trafficking people."
"Scavenger?" Lin Mo sneered and put forward another guess.
"It seems so."
"Then I can start better."
...
Industrial zone in the north of the city.
The car was parked near the Sanhua Hotel, and there happened to be an abandoned industrial land next to it.
After getting off the car, Lin Mo and Beichuan Hao came to the hotel and were in no hurry to enter the hotel.
Outside the first floor of the hotel, Kitagawa Hiroshi leaned against the wall, his eyes slightly narrowed, and the hearing enhancer in his ears activated at full power to listen for the sounds in the hotel.
"Have you heard anything strange?" Lin Mo asked after waiting for a while.
"No, it seems they are not here at the hotel. I didn't hear anything." Kitagawa Hiroshi said after being silent for a while.
"As expected." Lin Mo was not surprised.
A small hotel like this is most likely a disguise, and even the owner may not know that his hotel will be used as a venue for fraud.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the boss is in cahoots with them.
Therefore, the group of suspected scavengers must have another stronghold.
"Do you want to look around next? If there are many of them, you should be able to find them somewhere higher." Lin Mo gave suggestions.
"No, please wait here for a moment, Mr. Lin."
Kitagawa Hiroshi said apologetically, turned around and suddenly walked back to the hotel with an indifferent expression.
Lin Mo didn't know what happened in the hotel after that. Anyway, he only heard a few dull crashes.
Hmm... the sound is nice, and it seems to be a good head.
Then Kitagawa Hiroshi walked out of the hotel calmly and said in a relaxed tone:
"I found it. This boss really knows a lot. I used some tricks to make him spit out everything he knew."
Lin Mo frowned and was a little concerned: "What if he leaks the information?"
Speaking of this, the sword on his waist seemed to be ready to move.
"Don't worry, I let him sleep for a while and tied him up tightly. When I came out, I checked the housing records and found that no one checked in today. Just close the door and let him stay inside. Just stay one night." Kitagawa Hao said calmly.
"That's good."
...
Based on the information obtained from the boss, Kitagawa Hao finally brought Lin Mo to the top floor of a high-rise building.
Looking down from here, you can see an abandoned factory area.
There are three factory buildings in the factory area. There are also ordinary board-house residential areas around the factory buildings, truck parking lots, container storage areas, central open spaces, etc. All the necessary building facilities are available.
Unfortunately, Lin Mo didn't see the trucks or workers passing by, and there was no roar of machine production in the factory.
Looking from a distance, I can only see a group of people doing something in the open space, setting up benches, lighting fires, passionate music playing from time to time in a few cars, and people moving boxes of beer and food out of their houses. .
"It's a scavenger. I won't admit it." Kitagawa Hiroshi took out the cat Mata and observed the situation in the factory through the sniper scope, and said calmly.
Lin Mo also looked in the direction of the factory.
The distance was a bit far, but he could vaguely see the clothes these people were wearing.
Many of the people in this group were wearing cheap, plastic-like coats with many pockets.
Although scavengers do not have their own distinct gang costumes and colors like members of large gangs such as the Tiger Claw Gang and the Whirlpool Gang.
But they are scavengers after all, despised by countless people. If they have the ability to get away with it, who would be willing to do this job.
Therefore, these people who hang out at the bottom of Night City cannot be very luxurious in their clothes. Cheap and practical clothes are their first choice.
Moreover, if you accidentally get bloodstained while "hunting", you can just burn it and clean it up on the spot, so you don't have to feel regretful.
"However, there are a lot of scavengers here..." Lin Mo murmured.
There were a lot of people walking around in the open space, and they seemed to be celebrating something.
Thinking that today was Sunday, Lin Mo guessed that this group of people might be celebrating a week's rich harvest.
"There are almost fifty scavengers standing outside partying alone, and I don't know if there are people hiding in other houses. With such a large number of scavenger gangs, their purpose is not just to deceive people, and then It’s so easy to peel off the skin and bones.”
With so many people, it is absolutely impossible for just the two of them to eat, and it is not known whether these people have any hidden cards.
A scavenger gang that can gather so many people, Kitagawa Hiroshi doesn't think they can only do such a simple job as "peeling skins and extracting prosthetics".
"Jun Lin, it's difficult for us to deal with so many people. It seems we have to find an opportunity to sneak in."
Kitagawa Hiroshi took his eyes away from the Nekomata scope and turned to look at Lin Mo.
Then, his eyes widened slightly, a little stunned.
Because Lin Mo's eyes were shining at this time, as if he was calling someone.
"Lin Jun, who are you calling?"
"Wakako."
"Aren't you going to save people?" Beichuan Hao thought thoughtfully.
After all, before setting off, Wakako also told them that there were two mission goals, one was to rescue people safely, and the other was to find out the specific situation, and then summarize the information and hand it over to Wakako.
Although you won't get much reward for just completing the secondary goals, it's better than being safe.
It seems that Mr. Lin is also a cautious person and will never fight an unprepared battle.
Sure enough, those who understand current affairs are heroes!
Kitagawa Hiroshi sincerely admires this mentality of being able to calmly analyze the gap between the enemy and ourselves at all times.
"No, people need to be saved." Lin Mo said.
"Then Mr. Lin is calling..." Beichuan Hao was a little confused.
"Invite people to fight!"
