"However, the guy we are going to talk about today is also a legend. He has many titles, such as Arasaka Nemesis, Gang Meat Grinder, Violent Terrorist Squad Non-Staff, God Machine Crazy Guy, etc."

"After hearing this, I guess the name is about to come out."

"That's right, it's the signature mercenary of Night City, the new ace of the Terrorist Squad, and the only living legend in Night City—David Martinez!"

"His life was so extraordinary that his story spread everywhere, making all the gangs in Night City terrified, and even the well-trained trauma team were afraid of him."

"If you have valuable implants, don't let this legend find out."

"Otherwise I'll definitely find your body in some garbage dump the next day."

"So, how does such a dazzling legend spend his week?"

"Day 1: Spend time with his girlfriend."

"The next day: spend time with his other girlfriend."

“Day 3: Watching Mewtwo at home.”

“Day 4: Watching Mewtwo at home.”

“Day 5: A day of self-reflection.”

"Day 6: Continue to watch Mewtwo at home."

"On the seventh day, he finally went out because he had finished watching Mewtwo and was going to buy a new one."

"Yes, his week is like this, but everyone has their own way of living."

"After all, becoming a legend doesn't depend on hard work, but on brains. Only active little brains can survive for a long time!"

"People are afraid of being famous like pigs are afraid of being fat. The more you enjoy life, the shorter your life will be. Who knows, someone might shoot you in the head tomorrow."

"In our world, heroes are not judged by their origins."

"It depends on whether you can carve out your own path."

“This is Night City.”

“This is the city of dreams.”

"...Fuck, I'm not that bad at all."

David threw the remote control in his hand.

At this moment, he was leaning on the sofa with a pair of dead fish eyes, but he was naked now. The afternoon sun shone on his body through the floor-to-ceiling windows, causing the sensors to send a comfortable signal to his brain.

It's obvious that he just crawled out of bed.

"Haha, you can't blame yourself for having to accept this interview, and you behaved like this at the time. At least the radio station reported the situation truthfully and didn't say anything bad about you."

Lucy said teasingly.

"Tsk, you can't blame me for that. Who knew this interview had to be conducted during my break? Shouldn't I have taken a good rest during the hard-earned break? Can I still run around like usual, accept commissions everywhere? Patrol everywhere? Do you have any justice? Do you have any humanity?"

"Haha, it's such a hard-earned vacation..."

There was a hint of subtlety in Lucy's voice, and there was a hint of smile in the look she gave him.

David has changed. He has become lazy and is no longer the young man who used to work hard to get commissions all day long.

However, the "not easy" he mentioned is enough to shock the people of Night City.

Have you ever seen anyone working half a month and taking half a month off?

In this age of cannibalism, 897 is a blessing, 007 is the norm. You should be grateful if you can have one day off a month, so why do you want to take a half-month off?

Dream it.

Apart from David, there is no one else in the entire Terrorist Squad... no, in the entire Night City who dares to do this.

If you ask why, it is the privilege of non-staff personnel.

Yes, their entire team did this, but he was the only one who did it.

"Tsk, you earned your own vacation, why don't you take it? It's your business if you don't want to take it."

David curled his lips, leaned his head back on the sofa with an indifferent attitude, and started his mumbling mode: "Also, I hope I don't find out what the hell that expensive implant is? To be honest, when have I ever done such a thing?"

To be honest, he hasn't done this kind of thing for a long time because it's too cheap.

"Even during the business trip to Charter Hill, it was because those idiots thought their lives were too long that they dared to complain to the Terrorist Mobile Team and give them orders."

"What? Our Terrorist Squad has no dignity? We should let Melissa kick their balls in the ass!"

The incident at Charter Hill that he mentioned was actually a very simple matter. It was because a few rich guys were dissatisfied with his behavior of damaging the group's hovercraft. They said a few unpleasant words and also paid a friendly greeting to the late Gloria.

David couldn't stand it anymore and raised his hand to beat these guys.

However, before leaving, under the stunned gaze of the new team members, he did not forget to dig out the separation chips, cash, implants and other things of these guys, destroy them, and then announced to the headquarters that it was an accidental impact and nothing more.

A very skilled business.

This kind of thing is normal for the Terrorist Squad, and normally no one dares to tell the Terrorist Squad what to do in a place like Night City.

But there are not many guys with brains, just like these few people are typical brainless ones.

However, it must be said that the guys living in the upper class of Night City are indeed very rich.

Because of this incident, the sudden windfall allowed David to finally scrape together enough money to buy the Mecha implant, and successfully purchased a set of analyzer plug-ins like Hubie's.

Although its performance is less than 32% of that of a combat body, its unique analysis system is very useful. Even so, it can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction attack on this world.

But unlike Hubie, after the installation, there were no exposed mechanical parts on his body, nor a small tail, and he was basically the same as before the installation.

If I have to say it, the bionic skin on his body seems to be a lot stronger, and he has several more weapons in his brain.

However, the most important one is missing, which is the space transfer ability called Accelerator.

According to the system's description, this world couldn't stand his tossing and turning, so it was not opened.

Obviously, he was most optimistic about that ability, and he even thought that he wouldn't even need a car to go out in the future...

It was obvious that he was overthinking it.

Apart from that, the biggest change in him is his eyes.

The originally black eyes have now turned red, like a gorgeous and flawless ruby.

"Okay, okay, I know it's not your fault."

Lucy put a gentle, even slender finger on his lips, stopping his nagging words.

Her man is great, that's enough to know.

As for the outside public opinion and rumors, it doesn't matter to her.

At best, she used it as a spice of life and never took it to heart.

Thinking of this, she slowly got up from the sofa and coiled around him like a beautiful snake.

The large area of ​​skin touching each other made David shudder. A familiar throbbing started in his heart. He was a little distracted and couldn't help but move his index finger.

The look in her eyes when she looked at him closely was also full of love.

Just as their heartbeats rose and their breathing became closer, a phone call suddenly came in, interrupting the battle that was about to begin between the two.

And both of them received the call at the same time.

"Ignore it."

David casually glanced at the contact and saw that it was Okada and Utako calling, but he didn't intend to answer the call.

But Lucy shook her head: "No, it's Mann calling."

Having said that, Lucy let go of David, sat on the sofa and answered the phone, even lighting a cigarette for herself.

"Hello, Mann, it's me..."

"Tsk, why did this guy Mann suddenly call at this time..."

Looking at Lucy who was talking to Mann, he looked at Okada and saw that Wakako had not hung up the phone yet.

So he got up, opened the glass door, walked outside, leaned on the railing and answered the phone.

"Hello, Mrs. Wakako, what's the matter with calling me at this time?"

"David, I have a job here, I wonder if you are interested."

The familiar hoarse and slow voice coming from the phone made it sound half dead, like a candle in the wind, which would be extinguished in the next second.

"What job?"

"It's about Sandra Dorsett, an employee of the company. She was kidnapped by the scavengers. We need your help to rescue her. The reward will be generous."

"Oh?"

David raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and immediately became interested. "No problem, leave it to me."

"Okay, there is one more thing I want to tell you. I have asked your friends V and Jack Wells to help with this commission. As for the reason... you know it."

"Okay, okay, that's enough, let's hang up now."

He said a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone.

He definitely understood the reason that Wakako mentioned.

Because this matter would definitely involve the trauma team, and he had always been at odds with the trauma team. He was afraid that some accidents would occur, which would delay the rescue time of Miss Sandra Dorsett and cause some unnecessary trouble.

But then again, he had always had a doubt about the matter of Sandra Dorsett.

Why were those scavengers able to capture a rich girl, and a second-tier company insurance company? The scavengers' power alone could not have done it.

What's more, this shabby place, Night City, is full of disputes and conspiracies. He definitely won't believe that there is nothing fishy going on.

"Perhaps we can find some unexpected gains this time?"

A happy smile gradually appeared on David's face.

Exploring the secrets of Night City has become one of his few hobbies.

"What unexpected gain?"

At this moment, he suddenly felt a familiar warm embrace from behind him, and Lucy's gentle voice lingered in his ears.

"Nothing... How about you? Why did Mann call you?"

He turned around and tried to hug Lucy, but she dodged him with her nimble body and leaned on the railing like he had before.

"Same as you, nothing."

"...Hey, Lucy, please don't be like this, okay?" David said helplessly, "It's just that Wakako Okada has a commission about a rich girl named Sandra Dorsett. She was kidnapped by the scavengers, and they want me to rescue her. It's that simple."

But even so, Lucy's eyes were still a little puzzled: "What does this have to do with the unexpected gain you mentioned?"

"Of course there is. Look, Sandra Dorsett is a second-tier security guard in the company. How could she be easily kidnapped by the scavengers?"

"You mean..."

Hearing this, Lucy also understood and her eyes widened.

"Yeah, that's it. I think there must be something fishy going on."

"Is there any danger?"

Lucy was not interested in what was going on. She was more worried about David's safety.

"It's okay." David smiled and touched Lucy's hair, and said softly: "As you know, I have been investigating the matter of Ye's Company. It just so happens that Sandra Dorsett is from Ye's Company. Maybe she will become an unexpected breakthrough."

At this point, his voice suddenly stopped and he changed the subject: "By the way, you haven't told me what Mann called you about."

After being asked this by David, Lucy's expression gradually became indifferent, and she leaned on the railing again and looked at the scenery of Watson District indifferently.

"Nothing. Mann said there was a party tonight and asked if we wanted to go."

"As you know, Mann is back again. Today is the first commission he has completed, so he wants to celebrate."

"Emmmm... Let's go then. I think I can finish my work here soon."

He thought about it for a moment and made a decision.

"Then you must pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, don't you know me? I'm just a street cleaner!"

David even raised his hand to show off his muscles, but unfortunately he was met with a cold eye roll from Lucy.
