The Hive's operation against the scavenger invasion was undoubtedly a great success. No member of the team was killed, and only four or five unlucky guys were scratched by shrapnel. They may need to replace prosthetics and have a week or so to recuperate.
This action made the Hive famous in the Watson District again. In the recent conflicts, this newly emerging gang fought back with ruthless and swift means, and it was also rumored that this organization had a certain relationship with "afterlife".
The word "Hive" instantly became a hot topic on the streets of Little Chinatown. Mercenaries and ordinary citizens alike were discussing this newly emerging organization.
On the one hand, this kind of attention is a good thing. After all, once their reputation is established, there won't be so many arrogant people challenging them.
But there are also bad things.
At least the NCPD branch in Little Chinatown has made Hive a key surveillance target. This previously unknown guy is now causing them a lot of trouble.
When more than two dozen scavenger carcasses were dragged out of the underground passage, the media reporters, like hyenas chasing their prey, captured them all. Without a doubt, this would be a hot topic on the midday or evening news.
When he heard the news, the chief of the NCPD's Little Chinatown branch, who was suffering from high blood lipids and obesity, almost fainted.
The Hive's growing fame has brought many impacts, but so far, Bai Rui has remained emotionally stable.
At least for now, nothing bad happened.
Everything is still under control.
She has this confidence.
As long as V is around, everything will be fine.
However, the fact that the Hive was on the evening news was not something Bai Rui needed to pay special attention to. Now, there was a thorny problem before her.
She was manipulating Kikyo, doing something unspeakable at someone's request.
The power tools were making a vibrating humming sound that echoed throughout the small room.
Under the spotlight, Judy bit her lower lip lightly, her tense face looked pale, her eyes were closed, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was enduring something embarrassing.
"Judy, is this really okay?"
Kikyo operated it, blinking her eyes and asking questions continuously.
"that is it."
Amid the low hum of the machinery, Judy clutched her hands tightly, her lips and teeth expressing the answer in distress.
"Okay, I'm going to get busy then."
Kikyo nodded and unconsciously used some strength in her hands.
In order to prevent the current footage from being taken down by the Night City Film and Television Supervision Bureau, Bai Rui felt that he needed to explain something.
She was just tattooing Judy.
Kikyo was holding a tattoo pen in her hand and moving it across the fair skin of Judy's right shoulder. With a buzzing sound, a hexagonal pattern representing a honeycomb slowly formed.
Feeling the slight pain in the numbness on her shoulder, Judy closed her eyes and unconsciously let out a miserable groan.
"Wipe it off yourself, Judy."
After a while, the matter was finally settled. Kikyo wiped Judy's shoulders with a wet wipe, handed the wipe to Judy, and quietly stepped aside.
His decisive actions made him look like a scumbag.
It was not until this time that Bai Rui had time to recall what had happened.
This Judy suddenly found Kikyo and said that she had finally decided to join the Hive.
Bai Rui of course wholeheartedly supports Judy, a money-making treasure, but the problem is that Judy wants Kikyo to give her a tattoo as proof of her joining the hive.
Of course, although he didn't quite understand Judy's habit of doing such harsh things on herself, Bai Rui still let Kikyo take it on as a simple task.
She has learned to make peace with life.
Ninety-nine percent of the people in Night City have tattoos. Even though she doesn't understand, she has learned to respect them.
Of course, she definitely wouldn't do it if she was asked to do it herself.
Her body is so beautiful, her skin is so white, she can't do anything with the technology.
After it was over, Judy, with a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, stared blankly at the ceiling, her chest rising and falling, making sounds that could easily be misunderstood.
Only then did she struggle to sit up from the operating chair.
"that's it."
Looking at the new hexagonal mesh tattoo on her shoulder, Judy sighed.
She always divides her life into many sections, as if all she has to do is move forward one section at a time.
And now, she thinks it’s time for her to move on to the next phase of her life — life in the hive.
This was a decision Judy made after careful consideration.
She's leaving the Mox Gang and joining the Hive.
Of course, there are many reasons, and Judy herself doesn't know which one drove her to do this in the end.
However, looking at Kikyo who was standing in front of her casually with her hands folded and looking at her with concern, Judy curled her lips and smiled.
At least there is a reason for this.
She had worked in Mox for many years and once believed in Mox's philosophy, but in the end, Judy discovered that the Mox gang was just a group of poor people who huddled together for warmth, and there were many things they were truly incapable of doing.
So, Judy decided to find an organization that could do it, like the Hive.
Of course, Judy didn't feel that she owed the Mox Gang anything. The wealth she brought to the Mox Gang was enough to make up for the trouble she caused.
It is said that technical jobs are popular, just like Judy now, she is full of confidence.
Chapter 153 How can we manage Night City with such a bunch of insects!!!
Bai Rui had a very comfortable life these two days.
She and V also took this opportunity to move, directly to the top floor of the Beehive Building, where there was a luxurious king-size room that could serve as a bedroom for two people.
However, the two of them did not move out of the apartment in the skyscraper. Since the lease had not expired yet, Bai Rui just let it stay there.
However, this made V sigh for a long time.
They are really rich.
Renting a house in Night City is like playing. You can rent two rooms, keep one empty and live in the other. That's what you call luxury.
Of course, Bai Rui pointed at V and laughed at his exaggerated statement that a poor boy like him had never seen the world.
It's a cyberpunk version of the emperor plowing the land with a golden hoe.
This is the "legendary" level prosthesis that Saburo Arasaka used to tighten screws in the factory, right?
Living in a honeycomb building doesn't really make much difference, except that it makes working more convenient.
After all, Bai Rui doesn't care about food and accommodation, he is a typical sewer rat.
Having some hamburgers and fried chicken is a luxury.
If you ask her, well, making carbs is much more interesting than making Tomahawk steak.
East Asians’ stomachs are suited to eating carbohydrates. Why, you don’t accept that?
So, Bai Rui successfully lived a life of making cheap food and screwing screws in the basement.
The only way to spice up her life, besides teasing Johnny Silverhand who can't do anything now, is to tease female V.
Although she seemed to be the one who got beaten in the end, she just enjoyed it. Who can blame her for being so naive and playful?
Well, business, business.
Bai Rui pulled himself back to the point and got back to business.
Her thoughts were so jumpy that something that could be said in two sentences took her half an hour to finish.
Bai Rui's plan to enhance the strength of the Hive is still progressing steadily.
After V's trial, Bai Rui tried his best to modify and compensate for some problems with the first generation of Thor's hammer armor.
She also has sufficient plans for the subsequent development of exoskeleton armor.
In order to benefit ordinary soldiers and to bring out the combat effectiveness of the elites, Bai Rui thought of taking two steps.
That is to develop exoskeleton armor suitable for two groups of people respectively.
Of course, due to the tight financial situation, this plan is still in the draft stage.
It takes a lot of money to become a hero.
Bai Rui felt that his biggest weakness in this world was that he had no money.
Ojin, want to...
Bai Rui let out the wail of a poor man.
And that's not the worst.
Equally troublesome is the "Rip-off" bar opened by Bai Rui.
Although she didn't have high hopes for the bar, she hoped that it could bring in some income to ease the financial burden of the hive's rapid growth.
But, just like those hard-working entrepreneurs.
Night City dealt a heavy blow to Bai Rui, the emerging bar owner.
The bar, it doesn't make any fucking money.
Not to mention that he couldn’t even earn back the money for the Hive employees, Bai Rui was still putting money into it.
You have no idea how heavy the taxes in Night City are. Adding up all the miscellaneous land taxes, the bar not only doesn't make any money, it's losing money.
The gray industry that doesn't pay taxes makes money quickly.
And Bai Rui finally understood why in the game, apart from a few extremely wealthy people, Night City was filled with a large number of poor people.
Why are the middle class, which should make up the majority of the population, so inconspicuous, including the low- and middle-level corporate dogs who work hard for the company and the self-employed individuals who run shops?
It turns out that they are all suppressed by the taxes in Night City.
Bai Rui was lucky that no blind gang dared to collect her money.
Otherwise, shops that are not in the core area of the company will have to pay tribute to local gangs in addition to paying taxes to Night City.
In response to this, Bai Rui turned into a god and severely rebuked the Night City government for its inaction.
"How can we develop the city with such a bunch of insects?"
Bai Rui gritted her teeth and swore to Knight, the founder of Night City, that when she had power in the future, she would launch a pest control plan and a large-scale Three Purities Movement to severely punish these bespectacled intellectuals and restore a bright and peaceful world to the people of Night City.
I can't deal with the giants, and I can't deal with you either.
You don’t have to pay for bragging, but in reality, Bai Rui doesn’t have such a good awareness.
"...Ah, Secretary Zhu, Secretary Zhu, I'm so poor. I'm running out of money. I can only work as a model in a club to pay everyone back!"
In the office, behind the metal desk, Bai Rui was curled up like a fat white worm in the big leather sofa that covered her entire body, complaining about this heartless Night City that left her pockets empty.
On the side, Judy, who was sitting on a chair, operating her PDA and busy making financial statements for this sucker, was so upset when she saw Bai Rui's spineless look.
Uh, now she regrets joining the Hive. Can she quit?
Judy even started thinking about where she could get tattoo removal at a discount.
When she joined the Hive, she thought it was an ambitious organization that wanted to truly change this terrible city.
At first Bai Rui behaved normally and patted her shoulder as a reassurance.
From now on, the sky of Night City will definitely belong to Mr. De and Mr. Sai, and to all the residents.
Although she didn't know what the other party meant by Mr. Democracy and Mr. Science, Judy still agreed when she heard that Bai Rui still wanted to do something practical for the residents of Night City.
After all, the other party has already proved through his actions that he has the ability and courage to do so.
Rescued the sex dolls trapped by the Tiger Claw Gang.
Moreover, in order to prevent those girls from being seduced by the Tiger Claw Gang, Bai Rui in front of him waved his hand and directly hired them as waiters in the store.
This is undoubtedly good news for those girls.
After all, in Night City, many sex dolls do not volunteer to engage in this ancient profession.
