"Faraday has been killed by you?"

[As I write this, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network→𝘵𝘸𝘬𝘢𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮]

In the morning, in the Tavernier suite, Karl, who was sitting on the sofa waiting for V to cook for today's shift, received a message from the Mann team.

They went to Dog Town some time ago because they wanted to hunt down Faraday, and they followed the traces all the way. It was not until early this morning that they finally found the trace of Faraday and gave him death.

After thinking about it, Karl sent the message.

Carl: When you went to Dog Town to find Faraday, I also went to Dog Town, but I didn’t find any trace of you or Faraday. I originally thought that I might be able to meet you, so you guys have been here during this time. Are you looking for Faraday in Dog Town?

Mann: Carl, you went to the Sapphire Bar. The news in Dog Town has spread all over. What kind of KK came to Dog Town? How could Faraday and us be invited to that place? We were just looking for it on the streets.

The message sent by Mann paused, as if he was typing, and then a large piece of information appeared.

Mann: That guy Faraday was hiding in a gang of scavengers. We searched for a long time before he found it. The scavengers in Dog Town were much stronger than the scavengers in the city. I almost cut my waist in the hands of a gang of scavengers. The car overturned, but fortunately, in the end, we dragged that bastard Faraday out and killed him. The bastard couldn't believe that he was killed by us until he died. If I didn't really want to do that, I really should have done it. Take a bite out of his body.

Karl: As long as the result is good, you are done with your work in Dog Town and are you ready to return to the city?

Mann: We have been going back to the city to resupply. After all, Dog Town is not a safe place. After taking care of things today, we should not go to Dog Town again in a short time. That place is really not for people.

Karl: On the bright side, you have solved Faraday, who almost killed you. If this news spreads in the next life, your team's reputation will be louder. Although that bastard Faraday is not very capable, he has been a middleman for many years. Even though I was slaughtered by you like this, the reason was still so fair. Maybe many mercenaries who have been tricked in the next life will applaud you, and some idiot middlemen with messy ideas will be able to turn their heads.

Mann: There must be Oliver among these mercenaries. How about coming over tonight to have a drink with us in the afterlife? You can also go to the Wild Wolf Bar. We haven’t gotten together for a while, but it’s a pity that Brown and the others have to protect the big star Grams. There isn't much space in there, otherwise we could get together again.

Regarding Mann's invitation, Karl paused with his hand on the phone for a moment, then thought about it and answered in a way that did not reveal the commission information.

Karl: I have something to do and I haven’t been free recently.

I have been working as a mercenary for a long time, and Mann understood immediately.

Mann also knows Karl's temperament. He will make everything clear if there is anything. As for the things he does not make clear, there is only one possibility, that is, the matter cannot be made clear. For mercenaries, they are very busy recently and cannot make it clear. The only thing that can be done is accepting jobs.

Mann: Then please be safe, I won’t disturb you anymore. Say hello to Jack, Oliver, and V. Please call me anytime you are free. I can come over right away as long as you are free. I'm looking for you. Don't forget us if something happens. Our team owes you too many favors. You must give us a chance to repay you.

Carl: There will be, there will be.

After sending a message to reply to his friend, Karl felt someone approaching from the corner of his eye, so he stopped playing with his phone and looked towards the place where he felt the person approaching.

The person who arrived was not V who had made breakfast, but Nobu Arasaka who had gotten up and was wearing a bathrobe.

"Good morning, Mr. Senobu."

"Good morning, Carl."

It is already the fourth day of guard work. In these days, except for an accident on the second day, Carl's team guard Nobu Arasaka was very safe when meeting people in the city, and nothing happened on other days. It can be called an unexpected thing. Everyone is somewhat familiar with this way of getting along, and they have their own personal impressions of both parties.

Everyone in Carl's team thinks that Nobu Arasaka is a good employer. An employer who listens to others and listens to the security arrangements of bodyguards cannot be considered bad in any way, not to mention that this employer is not condescending at all. They have a sense of worth and are very harmonious to get along with.

And Nobu Arasaka is now sure that everyone in Carl's team is a very good person, and each of their abilities is rare among the people Nobu Arasaka has seen in his life. Jack and Oliver don't have to To say more, in the escort team before Nobu Arasaka came to America, only those at the captain level were close to them in terms of level, and as for Carl and V...::

With the two of them, Nobu Arasaka even thought that even if Adam Hammer, Kenichi Shiro, and Takemura Goro stood in front of him and wanted to kill him, they would be able to stop him.

Originally, Nobu Arasaka wanted to hire Adam Hammer as his bodyguard if Michiko Arasaka hadn't hired Adam Hammer in advance. However, the result was not bad, and it might even be far better than hiring Adam Hammer. many.

It is better to get along with a person who tends to be crazy than to talk to a group of young people who are energetic and passionate, and the food is delicious. When getting along with Karl and the others, Nobu Arasaka always feels that he has become a lot younger, and he feels slow in his heart. The passion that had been in the slow silence was activated again.

But this relationship should end today.

Nobu Arasaka originally wanted to stay in Night City to make some advance preparations for certain future events, ensuring that after something happened, he could bypass Michiko Arasaka and take control of American Arasaka as quickly as possible, but Michiko Arasaka's methods were different. When it comes to excellence, there are not many areas in the Americas that he can get involved in, and recently, some news has come from the main island that makes Nobu Arasaka uneasy. He has to return to the main island as soon as possible to implement one of his plans. .

"I have to leave Night City early, expected to be in the morning of the day after tomorrow."

What Arasaka Nobu said at the breakfast table made everyone in Carl's team stunned for a moment.

"I will not give you less reward, but something happened and I have to go back quickly. I expect to come back within a few months."

Nobu Arasaka said while eating a bacon sandwich, looking at everyone.

"At that time, can I entrust you to be my bodyguards again?"

Although he was a little surprised by Nobu Arasaka's sudden departure at the dinner table, Karl, as the captain, responded quickly to the proposal of seeking the next commission from a well-cooperated client.

"certainly."

Karl looked at Nobu Arasaka, who might not have noticed it himself, but there was a subtle sense of determination on his face, and nodded.

he said.

"As long as the pay is enough."
