Chapter 50: Master Lucy.
Ali looked at the figure in front of him, a girl with eye shadow and a cyborg in a waist-revealing outfit. If this familiar face isn’t Lucy, then who else could it be?
The heroine of Edgewalker, who is addicted to smoking, doesn’t like to talk about her past when she is introverted, and will run around the streets like a mad woman when she is cheerful. She is clean and efficient in executing tasks, beautiful and looks harmless, but in fact, she will kill without hesitation!
Lucy thinks Night City is a prison, and her dream is to go to the moon. For this reason, in the original plot, she also bought a super dream at home that can simulate the real scene on the moon.
“Come with me!”
While Ali was in a daze, Lucy grabbed Ali’s hand and took him to an empty carriage. Looking at Ali’s childish face, Lucy knew that the man in front of her must be a spoiled child. He was white and tender, without any implants on his body, but he could discover her theft method. It seemed that this guy might be extremely talented, with insight and reaction ability beyond ordinary people, or maybe he was just lucky. In short, she was not sure, so she still had to confirm it.
“What do you want to do?”
“What are you doing?”
“Are you trying to destroy my job?”
“”Huh? You stole my phone and you’re blaming me for arresting you?”
Lucy looked up at Ali, who seemed a little tall to her. She pressed Ali against the wall of the carriage with her body, so that Ali could smell the fragrance of Lucy’s shower gel and the faint smell of cosmetics.
“You have been staring at me since just now. Are you a cop stinging me?”
“no”
“Then you are deliberately trying to ruin my job!”
When Ali was relaxing, Lucy withdrew her hand and slid her slender fingertips across Ali’s chest. She looked at Ali curiously:”You don’t have any implants on your body. I’m curious how you did it. I mean, how did you find me?”
“Give me back my phone first, and then I’ll tell you.”
Ali stretched out his hand and asked Lucy to return the phone without any interest, which made Lucy’s face darken. She was such a beautiful woman, but this guy had a wooden head? He was still thinking about his broken brick phone!
“Well, tell me first, and then I will consider whether to return it to you. It is the rule of the industry. If I steal it, it belongs to me. You have to take it as your bad luck (Lucy made it up).”
Lucy held Ali’s phone and shook her finger to indicate that she would not return it. Then she put Ali’s phone into her waist bag in front of Ali.
“You are quite domineering in this line of work.”
Ali shrugged, then directly took Lucy into his arms. In Lucy’s astonished look, Ali reached into Lucy’s waist and took back the phone in her waist bag, and casually patted Lucy’s buttocks as a punishment!
“You!”
Lucy covered her buttocks and her face turned red. She stared at Ali, the lecher, and wanted to fight back, but when she thought about her current situation, she held back.
“First, you are too slow.”
“Secondly, your reaction is not good!”
Ali smiled slightly and took out Lucy’s waist bag from his hand. Lucy looked at her waist with wide eyes. The waist bag that was originally hanging on her waist was gone. Could it be that he took off the waist bag at the moment he patted her butt?
Lucy looked at Ali in shock, her pupils trembling slightly. What a fast speed. Without implants, can he reach this level with physical fitness that she can’t even react? Lucy’s mind was full of thoughts, but one thing was certain, she definitely met a tough guy.
“Okay, I admit defeat. What do you want to do now? Call the police and hand me over to the NCPD and then reward me with a useless banner?”
Lucy seemed calm on the surface, but she was actually on guard against Ali in her heart. She moved her feet secretly. She could turn around and run in a moment, but it would be a pity for her bag of fruits of a busy morning’s labor.
Of course, Lucy felt a little sad at this moment. She was trained by Arasaka to be a cannon fodder hacker to explore the deep web since she was a child. In order not to die in the deep web like her companions and have her head burned into paste, she desperately escaped from other cities and came to this mixed Night City.
I thought I could live a new life in this famous city where many companies clamp down on each other and the government’s legal procedures cannot penetrate. I didn’t expect that Arasaka’s hunting order for her still existed. Although her importance was dispensable to Arasaka, it was related to her own life. Lucy didn’t dare to gamble, so she was still afraid to show her face.
But in Night City, which has been Gangs, companies, and groups have divided up the place. As an outsider from another city, how can Lucy, who dares not show her face, integrate into the already formed system of Night City?
The answer is no. Without a guide, without street reputation, and without relatives, she can’t find a suitable job at all, so she can only wander the streets penniless.
With no place to live and no place to sleep, she must not only beware of Arasaka people, but also all kinds of strangers, especially the existence of scavengers in Night City who are”greedy” for people’s bodies.
If Lucy hadn’t been cautious, had strong self-protection skills, and was a high-level hacker, she would have died on the streets of Night City long ago. She would have been made into a sex doll on Twisting Street or become a pile of scrap metal in the garbage dump.
Because Ali saved Sasha, the Mann team was not like the original plot. There is a lack of hackers in the anime. Although Qiwei and Lucy know each other, they are just acquaintances and have little affection. After all, in the anime, Qiwei can sell out her teammates for money and sell Lucy out. How deep can their feelings be?
Qiwei has no other good solution for Lucy’s situation. Even if she has one, she is unwilling to help. After all, Qiwei is self-centered. She doesn’t want to sacrifice her own interests (hacker orders) for Lucy.
This also leads to Lucy’s ability to sneak account chips in subway cars in order to survive in Night City, and to travel around to commit crimes to reduce the risk of being arrested.
In fact, many people say that Lucy only steals from Arasaka people. In fact, this is wrong in my opinion. In the original plot, David was stolen even though he was not wearing Arasaka school uniform. Later, with David’s cooperation, he also stole a lot of chips. It is impossible that all those chips are from Arasaka people.
So Lucy Lucy stole the chip just for money, to make some extra money, but now because of Ali, Lucy, who did not join the Mann team, lost her protection, which means she has no stable income.
So now Lucy is an illegal resident of Night City and can’t even rent a house. The purpose of stealing chips has changed from”making extra money” in the original plot to Lucy’s only means of survival. The ending is much more tragic than in the original plot. Even such a pitiful Lucy was caught by Ali. The fruits of Lucy’s labor in the morning were in Ali’s waist bag.
She looked at the waist bag in Ali’s hand with money. She wanted to run but was reluctant. If she didn’t run, she was afraid that Ali would hand her over to the police. If they fought, she couldn’t say whether she could win. Even if she could win, she couldn’t run away in this crowded subway. Now Lucy’s situation is a dilemma.
Ali didn’t expect that due to various reasons, a high-level hacker in Night City would fall to the point where she couldn’t even afford to eat. Lucy can be regarded as the first one.
Seeing Lucy looking frightened but trying to pretend to be calm, Ali couldn’t help but find it funny. He didn’t intend to tease Lucy anymore and threw the waist bag back to her.
Lucy took the waist bag back. She was a little confused at this time. She didn’t understand Ali’s intention. You know, her bag was full of money. Ali didn’t want money, and he didn’t send her to NCPD. She began to wonder what Ali wanted.
“Hand you over to NCPD? Not really, I’m not a five-star good citizen, but next time you should be more careful and don’t steal from people you don’t care about.”
Ali snapped his fingers and prepared to leave. Although he liked Lucy very much, it didn’t mean he needed to please Lucy. If the means were too direct, it would appear stupid and lose face, so turning around and leaving to wait for the next encounter was a better choice.
Lucy also reacted at this time. Seeing that Ali was about to leave, she grabbed Ali’s wrist reflexively, and pulled Ali back again and pressed him back against the wall. The single molecule line wrapped around Ali’s body and made him unable to move!
“Did I let you go?”
“No way, I’ve already forgiven you, but you won’t let me go.”
The fragrant breeze blew across his face, and Ah Li couldn’t help but be silent as he looked at Lucy who was so close to him, because Lucy’s thigh was pressing against his”little brother”, threatening him not to move.
“Uh-huh, don’t interrupt me, I ask you to answer, otherwise I don’t mind dying with your”little brother”……”
After Lucy finished speaking, she pushed forward with her thigh to show her sovereignty. The monomolecular line seemed to want to wrap around her, which made Ali laugh and cry. He decisively surrendered. He was really impressed by this crazy woman.
“You have aroused my interest. If I’m not mistaken, you are a cyberpunk, or a beginner!”
“I guess so.”
“Then you need me. I can be your teacher and help you become a real cyberpunk. Don’t underestimate me. I come from another city, I have seen more and know more than a novice like you. With me here, you may be able to go further on the road of cyberpunk.”
“Besides, you don’t have any implants, but I do. I can help you solve many problems with the prosthesis. As a cyberpunk, you also need a hacker to help you solve some things on the Internet. Coincidentally, I am also a hacker, and I am a pretty good hacker.”
Lucy put her face close to Ali. She was not tall enough, so she could only blow on Ali’s neck:”I am short of money. Of course, I can see that you are short of money. You couldn’t fake the melancholy expression on your face in the car.”
“Your skills and talents are not bad, how about this, let’s cooperate, I will train you, you are responsible for taking orders, and I am responsible for helping you, let’s make a lot of money together, how about it?”
Lucy’s smooth little combo made Ali confused (hardened). He knew that Lucy was a little desperate in Night City at this time, but he didn’t expect that the situation was much more serious than he imagined. In order to change the status quo, she actually planned to cooperate with a stranger.
Just because Ali let her go? Maybe, maybe Lucy also saw that Ali was talented and handsome? Did they have a good impression of each other? Or was it easier to deceive him as a rookie?
In short, no matter what the reason, in order to change her current situation and the future that she could not see, Lucy planned to cooperate with Ali, a local of Night City, and bet on Ali.
“I’ll think about it.”
“Well, the opportunity is right in front of you, what are you still thinking about? High risk, high reward. If you work hard with me, I guarantee that you will be able to buy a car and a house in Night City within two years.”
“Damn, is it really that good?”
Seeing Ali’s stunned look of thinking, Lucy smiled slightly. If he didn’t refuse on the spot, it meant there was a chance. She continued to increase her efforts.
“How about this, words are not enough, now I will bring you your first business. I will be responsible for hacking into the account chips of other people in the subway, and you will be responsible for receiving them. How about we split the money 80-20?”
“Huh? Why did I only get eight?”
“I’ll give you a big mouth, I’ll take eight! Have you ever seen a master get less money than his apprentice?”
Lucy almost fainted from being so angry.
“But 20% is still a little too little. Since you said you want to be my master, shouldn’t you let your apprentice make some concessions?”
A Li was almost amused by Lucy’s”witty” little appearance, so he followed Lucy’s words and agreed. After all, this was quite interesting.
“Well then, I will give you 70% and you 30% without bargaining. From now on, I will be your master on the cyberpunk road. Come on, call me master for me to hear.”
Ali felt a little ashamed. He couldn’t call out for a while. Seeing that Ali didn’t respond, Lucy pushed her thigh forward again. There was no other way.”Second brother” was in trouble, so Ali had to admit it and said:”Master”
“Be good~”
Since the cooperation was reached, Lucy did not restrain Ali. She took back the single molecule line from Ali, and of course loosened the thigh that threatened”Second Brother”.
Lucy stretched out her hand:”My name is Lucy.”
Ali rubbed his private parts that were a little sore, and then the rubbed hand held Lucy’s outstretched hand under Lucy’s surprised eyes.
“My name is Ali.”
After shaking hands, Lucy immediately withdrew her hand in disgust. Since they chose to cooperate, they started to act. The two walked out of the dark carriage. Under Lucy’s command, they were going to start the great”stealing” business in the subway.
With a”click”, someone’s account chip popped out from the groove between his neck. Ali didn’t need to use Sian Westin. With 20 points of reaction and 20 points of calmness, he quietly grabbed the chip steadily and well.
This made Lucy, who was hiding in the dark, brighten her eyes. She didn’t expect that the first cooperation could be so perfect. This made her feel that there is indeed a way out. She Her vision is still as good as ever.
The two of them divided the work, one was responsible for black people’s brains, and the other was responsible for catching people’s chips. Soon they stole everyone in this station, and then they got off the train and took another subway to repeat the crime. After a busy day, Lucy and Ali both reaped a lot. They stopped at the station change area to rest for a while. At this time, Ali’s phone rang. It turned out that Jack Wells called. He was asking why Ali didn’t come today.
Ali was a little embarrassed. Playing with Lucy made him almost forget Jack Wells. He forgot his brothers because he had a woman. This made Ali feel a little embarrassed.
“I’m busy, Jack, so I won’t come over today. What’s the matter? Have you got any new work?”
“There is no new job. I thought you met with some accident or danger. Just forget it. You know, we Cyberpunks are always busy. How can we, who are not well-known, have work every day?”
“So, can you help me deal with my sister? I can’t spare the time for now.”
“Can’t spare the time? Let me guess, old Jack, have you found a girlfriend?”
“Is your guess so accurate?”
Ali hid aside with his back to Lucy. He was secretly talking on the phone with Jack Wells. He secretly glanced at Lucy’s back not far away. Ali answered into the phone:”Yes, he did find a girlfriend.”
“Haha, good, Fratres (brother) is bold! I will definitely support you on this matter, and don’t worry about Old V, our old Jack will definitely be able to deal with your sister with his eloquence!”
“”Okay, thanks Jack.”
After Ali hung up the phone, he saw Lucy’s little face approaching him. Lucy stared into Ali’s eyes and said,”Don’t think I didn’t notice you peeking at me. Tell me, who are you secretly talking about Master with behind his back?”
