Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

Moreover, Lao Qi also saw through it all. Now that these two good young men have become famous, the number of people who would directly oppose them has decreased significantly.

Moreover, some of his own strength has gradually recovered over time.

Although truly shedding his puppet-like form is unlikely to be achieved within a year or two, and both sides are his flesh and blood, if possible, he absolutely does not want to get involved in the struggles between humans...

But it's always good to be prepared and have some confidence.

So of course we have to go for it.

From this moment on, we must save people from car accidents, shootings, jumping off buildings, and even kidnappings. We must save people! Heaven creates all things to nourish people, and people save thousands of people to repay Heaven!

"Damn it, I don't want to experience that kind of consequence," V cursed under his breath. "Jack, let's go!"

“Of course, brother!” Jack charged forward, close behind.

They are among the most humane people in this cyberpunk era, but they would never be so kind as to meddle in the affairs of strangers and save them. At most, they would save their good friends or acquaintances.

But since the seventh brother has spoken, there's no need for further discussion.

"Mommy, damn it, the trauma team is here! There's someone injured! Where are you going? Are you really going to abandon us? No, Mommy, this is terrible! Help! Help! Anyone will do, please save Mommy!"

"The other victim is a company dog, she's being protected by the trauma team, so it's none of our business. The other two are here. Jack, quickly take her to Old Wei!"

"Ok!"

The two sudden sounds startled David Martinez, who was pinned down by the car; he recognized the two voices.

Since he saw Tanaka Katsuo being defeated in the morning, and then went to school to start classes, the illegal modifications made by the doctor not only made the school unusable, but also caused damage to the school system. The school called his mother, who was working at the company, to discuss compensation and expulsion.

His mother pleaded with the principal at school to save him from expulsion, and only then did the principal drive him home.

Up until this point, he had been thinking about V and Jack all day, imagining himself as capable as them, and then he unexpectedly got into a car accident.

NPCD was chasing members of the Vortex Gang when his mother's car was accidentally caught in the middle and attacked. The car overturned, and his mother was thrown out of the car by a rocket launcher explosion. She looked like she was about to die and faint, and David's heart sank.

He kept shouting for help, but this was Night City, and the era was 2076. Not a single kind person would even glance at him and his mother.

That's how it was supposed to be.

Just then, his idol appeared—

V and Jack, whom David had been thinking about all day, rushed over. One of them carried his mother on his back and ran quickly to a reliable clinic, while the other came up to him and pushed the car off David with one hand, freeing him.

Overjoyed tears welled up and burst forth instantly.

Although he was a complete stranger to the two idols, David had no suspicion whatsoever that they might be using the guise of helping him to dissect and sell his mother.

Right now, he is like a saint seeing Jesus, like Mitsui Hisashi seeing Coach Anzai.

"Senior, Senior V...I want... Pure Nature...I want to learn and train Pure Nature with you all, sob sob sob..."

Sobbing uncontrollably, kneeling on the ground, David, a survivor of the ordeal, has found his own basketball.

"What a coincidence?"

V was shocked. The first person he saved was actually the pure natural person that Lao Qi had been longing for.

"Well, it's nice to have that intention, but you shouldn't be looking for me, you should be looking for this guy." V ​​scratched his head and took out the Seventh Man doll that he always hid in his clothes.

Although David has found his basketball, V is not Coach Anzai; the inherently evil seventh man is the one in this position.

[That was too hasty, V. Think before you act next time. How many lives do you have to use like that? Don't forget, the Vortex Gang and many others want to get to me.]

The more people who know about me, the less safe you are, do you understand? I'll let it go this time, but you absolutely cannot expose me again next time. You are the leader of pure nature, not me!

The seventh brother glared at V and scolded him fiercely, saying that this was too dangerous.

David hesitated for a moment, then stared blankly at the seventh puppet: "Hey, the puppet is talking?"

From that day forward, David Martinez's life changed forever.

……

The next day, David submitted his withdrawal application to Arasaka Academy, voluntarily leaving a place that was never meant for a poor person like him.

On this very day, the lucky fool duo, whom the entire Night City had grown accustomed to, suddenly became a trio.

David, the little guy who was following behind V and Jack, was able to keep up at the start, but he was quickly pulled behind and the distance between them grew so great that he could no longer see the exhaust fumes of the two in front of him.

Even so, he never stopped, putting in all his effort to keep up, young but stubborn.

The residents of Night City, who were staring blankly at the addition of a third member to this lucky duo of fools, suddenly realized that V and Jack's speed had somehow become unbelievably fast.

That's the speed achievable with advanced prosthetic legs, including the strongest members of the Animals. But as true natural beings, V and Jack have clearly shattered everyone's understanding of natural beings in this cyberpunk era.

Being able to run fast isn't scary; what's scary is maintaining that speed to run a lap around Night City, and doing so in increasingly shorter times.

Yesterday's video of Katsuo Tanaka has also been widely circulated.

"Purely natural...can such a thing really be done?" Many people murmured quietly, their preconceived notions beginning to be shaken.

Especially seeing David join in first, some people seemed to have mustered up some courage.

Although no fourth person came up to join them on that day.

Because whether they intentionally came to provoke or wanted to join in, no one could find an opportunity to get there.

Those two lucky fools seemed to have changed overnight. Although they still exercised and ran around, they would immediately go to help whenever they saw an accident happening nearby.

They wouldn't bother with the perpetrators, because if they did, they would end up making enemies with every company, gang, NPCD, Cleaners, and all other forces in Night City, and they wouldn't be able to survive that way.

So when they saw there was an accident, they rushed over, brought out the victims who were caught in the crossfire, and then directly cracked some things on the victims' bodies. They used the victims' own money to call an AI car and had the AI ​​car take the victims to Lao Wei's place.

As for the victim who is not implicated, but another party who is already being targeted by the perpetrator, it depends on the situation.

If it's a gang fight, then we won't interfere; but if it's an ordinary citizen being extorted, robbed, or murdered, then we'll rescue the victim.

In other words, Lao Wei really doesn't need to think about resting at all today.

But that doesn't matter—in the eyes of the Night City residents, V and Jack's inexplicable and crazy behavior is what they care about and can't understand.

What are they doing?

In this Night City of 2076, basically apart from a few idiots like David, no one has the concept of being helped without expecting anything in return, or helping others without expecting anything in return.

Because that's practically a psychopath, even more insane, even more neurotic.

But now they have truly witnessed how these two lucky fools, at the cost of delaying their daily training, made time to help others.

Seeing this, the residents of Night City felt far more than moved or touched, at least not now.

Instead, it was an overwhelming sense of bewilderment.

Because they were so confused, not a single person came up to them that day.

As for those whose plans were ruined by V and Jack, those who would target ordinary citizens were just small-time thugs, the kind who might not even have the most basic implants. Anyone who dared to resist was instantly killed by the two of them.

As for the remaining gang fights and other major cases, although they felt that V and Jack dared to interfere and rescue innocent people who were implicated under their noses, which was disrespectful to them, they didn't have time to deal with V and Jack at the time due to the urgency of the situation.

After all, they were still playing John Wick at the time, and it wasn't certain whether they would survive. They could only make a note of this lucky fool duo.

As a result, V and Jack's actions went surprisingly smoothly throughout the day, with no one retaliating or blocking their way.

As dusk fell, V and Jack finished their daily lessons and all their exercises. Finally, a panting David ran to their side, gasping for breath, and was handed a bottle of mineral water that Old Seven had conjured up out of thin air.

After gulping down a big mouthful, he looked at the two seniors with envy, thinking, "Damn it, I wonder when he'll be able to handle things so effortlessly."

As long as you keep trying, you can definitely do it!

However, before that...

"Missing your mom, huh?" Jack grinned and put his arm around her shoulder. "No problem! Old Wei is amazing, go go go, I guarantee she'll be perfectly fine right now."

As he spoke, Jack was about to make a phone call.

Although Lao Qi forbade them from using implants, they were still allowed to use external communication devices such as cell phones and telephones.

But before Jack could even dial, Old Vie called, almost roaring:

"You two, that's really enough! You've brought me so many patients in one day. I could work myself to death and still not be able to handle all of them. I even have to call on colleagues I know to come and help, and pay them. But some of the people you brought don't even have enough money in their pockets to cover these costs. Don't go too far!"

For Old V, known for his good temper in Night City, such behavior was unprecedented; it was clear he was truly exhausted.

"Cough cough..." Jack felt guilty and became frightened, so he hurriedly tossed the hot phone to V.

V wasn't worried, as Old Seven had already hinted to him that if there were any issues with the property, Old Seven would [just happen to fall into a place with wealth, but the owner is dead, the hidden wealth has been forgotten, and it's ownerless], as payment to Old V.

Of course, this has absolutely nothing to do with Lao Qi. He just happened to fall nearby by accident, and he didn't say anything or interfere in anything.

In the past, V would definitely have wanted to use that money to live a life of luxury and debauchery. But now?

I'm going to become the strongest man on Earth! Money and hedonism are too much of a hindrance, so get them all to Old Wei!

"Alright, alright, don't be angry, Lao Wei," V shrugged. "I'll make up for the money. Anyway, you'll definitely make it up to me. Relax, relax."

Old Wei lowered his voice, as if avoiding someone: "You brat, I can't let you have peace. It's not just about money. Do you know that someone's come knocking on our door?"

"Huh? Who is it?"

"Gloria, David's mother, I rescued her. She's out of danger, but she's still unconscious. She probably won't wake up until tomorrow at the earliest. A group of mercenaries came to my clinic looking for her, saying they want to take Gloria and Anvestan. Anyway, get David over here quickly and explain things."

Old V didn't let V and Jack go back; he was protecting the two kids and didn't think they could handle that group of mercenaries.

After all, the leader of that mercenary group, Mann, had a full set of cybernetic implants that weren't cheap, and according to the information he found, Mann's past record was among the most impressive of the mercenaries.

So, let David handle his own family matters and don't involve his V and Jack.

However, upon hearing Old Wei's obvious subtext, V didn't hesitate and said directly, "Okay, then we'll head back right away. Be careful, Old Wei, don't let them get hurt. We're going back right away."

"No, I meant to..."

Old Wei was disconnected by the other end.

David looked completely bewildered: "Seanwistan? I don't know anything about him."

"You'll find out when we get back," V said, waving his hand dismissively.

Go!

"What's going on with the recent sales of prosthetic bodies? Is your entire department out of your minds?"

"This is the first time since the introduction of prosthetics that we've seen negative growth. In all these years, growth below 10% has been a rare occurrence. It's unbelievable that this generation has managed to do something like this. People with brains like yours wouldn't even want a cleaner."
