Cyberpunk: 2075

Chapter 561 174. Long time no see, Roger

"Kerry, why did you want to meet me?"

In the suite of the Next Life Bar, Roger looked at Kerry, whom he hadn't seen for more than ten years, with some surprise, and then looked at Carl and others beside him: "And he came here with Carl and others."

As the queen of the afterlife and a legend among middlemen, Roger almost subconsciously thought of business matters: "Do you have any commission that I can help you with?"

Roger looked at Kerry and said, "For the sake of our past friendship, I can give you a discount."

What is the relationship between Kerry and Roger?

The answer is that Roger was once Johnny Silverhand's girlfriend and Kerry's best friend.

Because of Johnny Silverhand, the two of them still have some friendship between them.

"If I really run into any trouble, I might really need the discount you gave me, Roger, but this time I brought you something."

After listening to what Kerry said, Roger became even more confused.

Bring yourself something?

I haven't seen you for a long time. Why does Kerry seem so weird to me?

“You brought me something.”

Roger looked at Kerry, but didn't see any place on Kerry's body where he could hide anything.

"I don't have anything on me. This is what I brought with me."

As Kerry spoke, he turned around and picked up something from the ground. When Roger looked over, he found a fluffy thing being handed to him.

'This is?'

Rogge took a look and recognized what the furry thing was.

Isn’t this Carl and his family’s dog? I remember his name was Qiuqiu. Why did Kerry pick it up and hand it to him?

I don't even take in dogs.

When Rogge was becoming more and more confused and was about to turn around to ask Carl and the others why they were acting strangely today, the dog in front of Rogge suddenly opened its mouth, and then a voice that Rogge was extremely familiar with and would never forget rang out.

"Long time no see, Roger."

This sentence was extremely simple, even just a common greeting, and it came from a dog's mouth, but when Roger heard this voice, which was familiar with the tone, he was stunned.

There was no way she would forget that voice, just as there was no way she would forget the scene that happened half a century ago.

Half a century ago, the owner of this voice was torn to pieces by Adam's hammer in front of her. From that moment on, she lost the love of her life.

"this!"

Even the well-informed Queen of the Afterlife was stunned at this moment. She looked at the dog in front of her speaking human language in disbelief, or simply couldn't believe it.

A dog that makes the sound of Johnny Silverhand, a gift that Carl and Kerry brought her?

Roger wouldn't think that at all.

Because when she heard this familiar voice, she saw the figure she was most familiar with in the dog's eyes, which should not have shown much emotion.

"This dog is not an ordinary dog. It has..."

Kerry was just about to explain to Roger that Johnny Silverhand was inside the dog, but when he was halfway through his words, Roger had already reached out and snatched the dog from his hands at a speed that could be said to be snatched.

"Johnny?"

Roger's voice shocked everyone present except her and Johnny Silverhand.

She actually recognized him?

It was clearly the body of a dog, and it was clearly Johnny Silverhand who should have died half a century ago, but when he appeared in front of him again, Roger recognized him just by hearing one sentence? !

“This is incredible.”

Oliver muttered, "Even when we knew that it was really Johnny Silverhand himself, it took us a while to accept it."

"I thought I would be the one who understood Johnny the best."

Kerry found it a little hard to accept. As a good brother, he recognized Johnny even less quickly than his ex-girlfriend.

"Sometimes I have to say that emotions are really a very strange thing."

After Carl said this, he found that Johnny Silverhand's projection appeared next to him.

"It's been more than fifty years since we last met, Roger."

"No, that's impossible."

Seeing Johnny Silverhand appear beside him, Roger slowly put down the dog in his hand. Although he knew the truth, he still couldn't believe it: "You are obviously dead."

"But I'm back now, Roger. I'm standing right in front of you, in this damn city. Don't be naive, Roger. I will always be by your side, right?"

Hearing Johnny Silverhand's gentle words, Rogge calmed down instantly. She frowned and looked at the projection of Johnny Silverhand:

"Why do these words sound so familiar to me? It's as if you went to bed with a pair of twins when you were dating me. I asked you why you were late, and that's what you said to me, right? I was really touched by you at that time, but I wouldn't have known you did this later!"

"Ha, Roger, look at your expression. That's all in the past. Now you should finally believe that I am really me."

"I remember you were torn to pieces by Adam's hammer in front of me."

"That means he can't kill me at all."

Roger rolled her eyes and was too lazy to say anything more to this arrogant ex-boyfriend. She turned to look at Kerry and Carl. She knew they would give her an answer.

After Carl repeated to Roger what he had already said to Kerry, Roger understood why Johnny came back to life and appeared in front of him, talking nonsense like a dog.

"Relic, I see. It's the biochip that's been making the city buzz lately. I never thought that the chip that Arasaka Nobuyuki stole actually contained Johnny's personality data."

The matter of Relic's biochip was still a secret to most people in the city, even after the death of Saburo Arasaka, but to Roger, this secret of most people was obviously not hers.

"How do you feel now, Johnny, to be reborn as a dog? Maybe it would be better for you to be a teddy bear."

"Don't be ridiculous, Roger."

Johnny Silver Dog shook his head: "I came here now because I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to see if you can help me get rid of this body. You can't let me stay in a dog's body forever."

"I think it's quite suitable. It will save you from running around everywhere. You haven't seen me for a long time. It's fake to see me in person. You really want me to help you."

Roger was indeed Johnny Silverhand's ex-girlfriend, and her words were merciless. However, in the end, she couldn't let go of this feeling after all, and her tone softened a little: "If you behave yourself, I can help you for our past relationship."
