The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

Looking at the golden cross in front of him and the Son of God Jesus nailed on it, Lin Qiao was a little dazed.

This is the church.

Well that is nonsense, it is normal and reasonable for a priest to be in the church.

"I've heard about it. There aren't many people who can do such a righteous deed in this world today."

The old man sitting in front of him, who was well-dressed but had a lot of tattoos on his arms, spoke slowly in a magnetic voice.

Like most of the Valentino gang, he wore an exaggerated and dazzling golden cross on his chest.

But the clothes he wore were much simpler, just like an ordinary old man in Lin Qiao's era.

"Two hundred thousand euros, my child, and God will spare you all the disasters."

“…”

The expression on Lin Qiao's face froze for a moment.

For a moment, he thought that his attitude as a bootlicker had failed, but the happiness of the others around him did not seem fake.

How should I put it? This price is really a bit unexpected.

"Can we talk to the priest and reduce it a little?"

"My child, although I would like to help you, considering the trouble you have caused, this is the lowest price I can offer. If you do it again, the young master will be unhappy."

The priest looked equally embarrassed. Although he liked the young man in front of him for some reason, sometimes rules are just rules.

If a breach occurs because of this, will we still be able to do business in the future?

"Of course, if you are willing to join the Valentino Gang, then some of the requirements can be exempted. After all, gangs are like family members, and helping family members does not require a reason."

"..."

Lin Qiao was so confused for a moment, okay, love is waiting for him here.

Sure enough, ginger is still spicy.

"But please allow me to reject your kindness, Father. I still need some time to consider future matters."

Declined the other party's invitation.

For people who are desperate, the Valentino Gang is a good place to go. Although as a gang, its main source of income is naturally from certain illegal industries, it is much better than the Vortex Gang and the Tiger Claw Gang. At least the internal atmosphere is good.

But in Lin Qiao's eyes, this is a completely optional option.

"Anyway, forget about my share, let's just resolve Lucy's identity first."

A trace of pity flashed across the priest's eyes, and then he shook his head.

"Okay, my friend, I respect your choice... But even if it's just this little girl, it'll cost 140,000. Is that okay?"

"No." He put a few chip cards on the table.

The priest's men took the chip card away, and after confirming that it was correct, they nodded to the priest, then looked at Lucy.

"Very good. I think her name is Lucyna Kushinada?"

"Come back in three days. By then, this little girl will be a native of Night City."

"As for the remaining money in the chip, I will transfer it directly to the new account I created for her."

Lin Qiao did not choose to object to this.

In a peaceful atmosphere, the priest, in a good mood, shook hands with Lin Qiao.

What no one noticed was that at the moment the priest shook hands with him, a small piece of blue slime emerged from the palm of Lin Qiao's hand and possessed the priest's body.

This small piece of genetic gene will continue to exert a servile attitude on the priest, ensuring that he will not directly investigate the exact origins of Lin Qiao and Lucy out of momentary curiosity.

Or even more simply, erase the necessary memories of him and certain people, and pretend nothing happened.

"Hey, brother, how's it going? Is it done?"

Walking out of the church door, Jack, who had been waiting outside the door and communicating with Valentino's friends in the past, came over.

"Thanks to the famous Jack Wells, everything went well."

"No, I tell you, the priest may charge a little more, but he is absolutely reliable."

It can be heard that Jack has extraordinary confidence in the priest - this may be related to the fact that he joined the Valentino Gang when he was a child.

If Mrs. Wells is like a mother to the members of the Valentino Gang, then the priest is probably like a father.

"By the way, you guys are not familiar with this place either. Do you need me to show you around? Heywood cuisine is one of the best in Night City."

"Thanks Jack, but let's do it some other time. I have so much to do now that I have just arrived in Night City."

"Oops, I almost forgot about this..."

Since the place was not far away, the three of them walked all the way from the church back to the Wild Wolf Bar.

As it was getting close to afternoon, there were already a lot more people inside and the air was a little more noisy.

After thanking Mrs. Wells in person, buying a bottle of tequila, and secretly giving it to the jealous Jack, Lin Qiao and Lucy set off on their journey with the sturdy man's farewell.

"But it cost more than I expected, and I only got one person's ID."

While waiting for the red and green lights to appear, Lin Qiao stretched and sighed.

"But never mind. At least the first level of identity is completed. We'll talk about it later..."

"First floor?"

After getting on the bus, Lucy finally no longer had to play the role of a weak girl whose parents had died and who could only depend on the big brother next door in the eyes of outsiders. She quickly returned to her true nature.

"Isn't it okay like this now?" He raised his eyebrows, feeling a little puzzled by Lin Qiao's words.

"It's fine, but it's only enough to maintain daily life. If the opponent is Arasaka, it won't be enough to do this."

"In short, believe me, the more identities you have, the better. You never know when they might come in handy."

Moreover, there is another opponent who is also a time traveler.

Now that I think about it, it's a good thing that his identity wasn't shared with Lucy's. At least it could separate the two of them to a certain extent... although it's actually useless.

"You are quite experienced..." She pouted and muttered something in a low voice.

"Let's get back to business. Where are we staying tonight?"

The hotel I stayed in before was blocked by NCPD after the owner was killed by Lin Qiao.

Although all the evidence pointing to them had been dealt with and the scavenger was involved, the NCPD was not too sad and closed the case hastily.

But the reality is that they have to find a new place to live.

"How about... just stay in the car for a while?"

After a moment's hesitation, Lucy suggested.

Considering that their total assets are less than 20,000 euros now, it is better to save money until they have a stable income.

"You are so young, but you already have the potential to be a housekeeper."

Lin Qiao laughed in silence, reached out and rubbed her head hard, making her hair messy.

The latter immediately pushed his hand away, shrank towards the car door, and hid a little further away.

"Don't be silly, I'll take you to the villa tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, a black "Sword of the Lake Lady" sports car drove out from the side road and blocked the SUV right in front of it.

It can't be said to be blocking the way.

It would be more appropriate to describe it as "leading the way".

The rustic off-road vehicle followed behind the streamlined luxury sports car, and the two sides maintained a perfect distance.

The man in the sports car had blue light flashing in his eyes.

Chapter 302 I have to find a way to make Arasaka my dog

North Oaks

Although it is part of Westbrook, there are neither supermarkets nor places for entertainment.

This is understandable, after all, it is a residential area.

What is most abundant here is large tracts of villas and luxury homes.

The most influential CEOs of high-ranking companies, the most famous artists... and so on. It can be said that the most prominent people in Night City have settled here.

Because of this, the security here can be said to be quite high. Without permission, even if you want to enter from the air, you will be shot down by the turrets placed inside.

If the Civic Center is the heart of Night City, then this is the brain.

——As we all know, all the organs in the body are meant to serve the brain.

And this is also the latest residence of Lin Qiao and Lucy.

Hmm? How did you do that?

It's simple. Just use genetic factors to control a rich and powerful person, and then he can get everything for free.

"Night City is truly a city of chasing dreams..."

In the villa's private swimming pool, Lucy lay in a trance on the light blue translucent swimming ring.

A passing security robot ignored it, said "everything is normal", and then ran off to patrol somewhere else.

The controllable hemispherical ceiling above the head effectively prevents exposure to the sun.

"My friends in heaven, are you all right? Lucy, I am currently living a life that is oblivious to the suffering of the people..."

After many days, her identity documents and other messy things had been taken care of by the priest.

Clean identity, clean account.

This means that as long as she is not caught directly by Arasaka's people, she has every right to live openly under the sun.

Not only that, what she is enjoying now is a life that 99% of the people in the world will never be able to experience in their lifetime.

...It is hard to imagine that half a month ago, I was still living a displaced life.

“It’s like a dream…”

Lucy groaned. It had only been a few days, and this comfortable life had already made her almost forget about Arasaka who was chasing after her.

"That's a shame, this is reality, so don't worry about waking up."

I looked around and found that Lin Qiao was standing by the swimming pool... and was looking at me with a strange look.

"Come to think of it, if you stay in the water like this, won't the prosthesis in the back of your head short-circuit when it gets wet?"

"No way, do you think this is an electronic device from the last century?"

I rolled my eyes at him. Although I hated Arasaka so much, the quality of his work was indeed guaranteed...

If taking a bath would cause water to short-circuit, Arasaka would have been doomed long ago.

In a sense, Lin Qiao, who asked this question, is asking the same question as "Should I buy a new cell phone when it runs out of battery?"

——It’s both helpless and funny.

"But is it really okay to continue like this?"

This experience is so dreamy.

It was so dreamy that I felt like I would wake up from the dream in the next second and embark on the journey of escape again.

Lucy couldn't help but feel a little worried about this.

Although she didn't know how Lin Qiao convinced the original owner, it was probably similar to his weird method of quickly getting along with the people around him, so it was probably not a proper method... She didn't care about the means, the only thing that worried her was what to do if this guy got out of hand?

She didn't want Lin Qiao to be on Arasaka's wanted list like she was in the past.

"Don't worry, since I dare to do this, I naturally have enough countermeasures."

Lin Qiao smiled and then sat on a recliner at the side.

"If nothing unexpected happened, that guy would never be able to resist in his life."

Kaoru Fujioka, this is the name of the original owner of this villa.
