The two of them were very happy.

A gentle voice sounded in Lucy's ears.

At the same time, a thick palm pressed on Lucy's shoulder, and the warmth from it made Lucy calm down a little.

Lucy turned her head and saw Rocky sitting next to her. She looked around and the surrounding scene came into her eyes.

It was a prosthetic clinic, and the chair under her was not a hacker chair, but a surgical chair.

Observing that she was not caught by Arasaka, and being comforted by Rocky's words, Lucy's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

But Lucy's eyes were still a little absent-minded, as if the nightmare just now was still lingering in her mind.

Just when Rocky was still thinking about how to comfort Lucy, Lucy suddenly turned around and hugged Rocky.

The sudden hug made Rocky's brain short-circuit for a moment, and even his body unconsciously stopped.

"Don't move, let me hold you for a while, just for a while." Lucy's whispered words rang in Rocky's ears.

Lucy's personality did not allow her to show such emotions, but the nightmare just now became the last straw that broke the camel's back. She really needed a warm support at this time, just for a while.

Since accepting this commission, she has experienced too many emotional ups and downs, from hesitation and fear of invading the Arasaka network, to the horror of being discovered, and now relief that everything is over.

Lucy has too many emotions to vent. She always shows herself to be very strong, but deep in her heart, she will also be confused and afraid.

It's just that no one can let her confide, and no one can understand her. In Night City, who is worthy of her trust?

Maybe this time, she can only continue to smoke silently in the corner and bear the heavy past.

Feeling the burning body temperature coming from Rocky, the cold feeling in the dream seemed to be blown away, and Lucy's panicked heart gradually calmed down.

Hearing Lucy's words, Rocky also relaxed, stretched out his hands, and hugged Lucy.

"Lucy, it's all over. The target has been solved, we have successfully withdrawn, and the hackers who invaded us have also been solved. Now no one knows that it was us who did it. We are completely safe.

You can hug me as long as you want, and you can vent your emotions. There is no one else here, and I will listen to you carefully."

Rocky's gentle words rang in Lucy's ears, and Lucy's heart trembled.

This seemed to be the first time someone told her that she was safe and he could tell everything unscrupulously.

The solid body that embraced her seemed to make her experience a sense of security she had never had before.

But Lucy still shook her head, just hugged a little tighter, and said in a low voice.

"That's all, thank you, L."

"Okay, it's okay, I'm always here."

Rocky put his hand on Lucy's back and patted her gently to comfort her.

...

After a long time.

Lucy let go of Rocky, and her expression returned to normal, as if the loss of control of her emotions just now was just an illusion, and the old Lucy was back.

"Thank you, L, I'm much better. I'm sorry for doing that just now, I hope you don't mind."

Lucy's face did not show any embarrassment, and she smiled again. She straightened her messy hair and said to Rocky.

"I don't mind. Speaking of this, it's my fault. I blamed you for pulling you in, otherwise you wouldn't have to bear this."

And hearing Rocky's words, Lucy shook her head.

"No, this is my own decision. I was too weak. It's none of your business.

By the way, can you tell me what happened later?"

The last scene before Lucy fell into a coma was that she was attacked by hackers in cyberspace. When she opened her eyes, she came here.

Although Rocky said that the matter was over, she still wanted to know what happened specifically.

"Later, after you fell into a coma, Jack and I found the location of the hacker. We broke into the network center of the Blue Bi Building and solved the hacker.

I destroyed our records and traces through the authority of the network center, and finally fled from the Blue Bi Building in my car." Rocky simply recounted what happened.

"...It's hard to imagine how you could do this under such circumstances." Lucy showed a surprised expression when she heard Rocky's understated words.

Rocky did not give the specific details, but only said what they did.

No matter who listens without knowing the truth,

Everyone would be shocked to hear such words.

Two mercenaries who did not install network access pods and were not hackers were able to locate the Arasaka hackers at home in the Blue Azure Building.

Then they broke through the layers of security blockades and broke into the network center, killed the hackers, deleted the data under Arasaka's nose, and finally broke through the siege and drove away successfully.

If what Rocky said was true, then if such deeds were heard by the cyberpunks in Night City, I'm afraid they would have called it a legend.

But in fact, what Rocky said was true, but it was not the version that most people imagined.

With the help of Ash's skills and Deroso, he completed all this very easily, and there was not much fighting at all.

"Well... this may not be what you imagined. There are not so many twists and turns in the middle, but I can't explain it clearly. You will know when the time comes."

Rocky didn't plan to explain too much about this. Many things are not as convincing as seeing them with your own eyes. When the time comes, Lucy will naturally understand after experiencing the flight mode and phase cracks of De Rosso.

But at this time, De Rosso was driven away by Jack, and the charging of the phase knife was not completed. Rocky could only do this for now.

"Understood."

After hearing Rocky's words, Lucy didn't ask any more questions and stood up from the operating chair.

"By the way, Lucy, there are some things I want to talk to you about."

Seeing that Lucy was not in any serious condition, Rocky said to her while packing up the equipment.

"What's the matter?" Lucy was a little confused.

"I don't think this place is suitable for chatting. Can we find a suitable place to talk first?" Rocky looked at the clinic full of medical equipment and expressed his thoughts.

"That's right. Then I'll take you to a place. Follow me."

"Where?"

"You'll know when you get here."

Lucy had a smile on her face. She looked in a good mood and seemed to be looking forward to it.

...

After cleaning up the clinic, Lucy took Rocky to the rooftop of her apartment.

The view here is very wide. The river in front of it makes it unobstructed by tall buildings around it, showing a large area of ​​sky in the field of vision.

It was already night, and a bright full moon was hanging there quietly.

The buildings on the opposite bank were brightly lit, exuding the unique charm of Night City. The satellite launch base in the distance could also see the scene of rockets taking off.
