MTL - Night Hacker-Chapter 28 Fight in the rain

   Chapter 28 Fighting in the Rain

  A downpour is washing over Kabukicho, and the signs and neon signs of shops on both sides of the street are dimmed.

  Lorna walked down the street and saw the rain as a gift.

  Only at times like this will the streets be empty and not always crowded.

   The messy wires swayed by the rain and accumulated in the puddles on the ground, drowning the false dreams that neon lights usually bring, and restoring the shabby nature of this place.

A plastic canopy was installed at the entrance of a food store, and a transparent plastic fence was set up below to protect the various fruits from the northern agricultural area that were laid out on the road from the rain. At this time, some pedestrians crowded there to avoid the rain. .

  The owner of the food store is on alert for a few street children stealing things, while yelling for people to get out.

Lorna noticed that just as the boss was scolding the children on this side, there was a smaller girl who was only a few years old on the other side quietly slipped to the fruit bar, quickly hugged some fruits and ran away in the rain. .

  The children who were responsible for holding the boss back, scolded the boss, and then the boss forced him out.

  Lorna couldn't help but smile, and some childhood memories came to her mind.

   For more than ten years, nothing has changed except that there is more garbage in the mud pond.

   That was after the failure of the Bone-Blood Action, the beheading and hanging of the leaders of the Bone-Blood Sect, such as her Laozi and others...

   Soon, a nuclear leak occurred in the bone and blood area, and everyone could no longer live.

   She has nowhere to go, and the bone and blood people don't want her to leave there. Once she leaves, there seems to be an official end.

But she had to leave again. The identity of "Daughter of Bone and Blood" is too sensitive. Whether it's the New World Bank or the "Bone and Blood Gang" formed by the remnants of the Bone and Blood faction, some people want her to die, and some people want to control her. She uses her.

   Suddenly one day, Lorna Lude disappeared, and her father's old men who had escaped the disaster arranged for her to leave the bone and blood area.

   But they are unable to protect themselves and cannot take care of her.

   For the next ten or eight years, Lorna became that kind of street child, wandering in the Kabukicho district, San Manga district, Jiangya district and the castle district, going around with a group of small companions and stealing things everywhere.

   They call themselves the "Mice Gang".

   Actually, for a while, although it was very hard, Lorna was very happy...

   Until the mouse gang was cleaned up by the Metropolitan Police Department, some people fled and joined the adult gang, some people were taken to the orphanage and disappeared, and Lorna continued to wander the streets.

  The soft sound of electronic music came from a store.

  Lorna stopped on the street and looked at the rows of products through a floor-to-ceiling red window.

  The heavy rain made the neon lights dim, but the lights in the window were soft and bright, and there seemed to be a layer of warmth through the glass.

   On the commodity column in the window, there are exquisite car models, stuffed bear dolls, small robots, building block puzzles, etc., which are collectibles that children and adults will like when they meet.

  The rain hit her face, and Lorna looked a little dazed.

   She once wanted such a singing rag bear doll, but she finally managed to steal it.

   But after a while, she threw the cloth bear in the trash.

   That's not something that belongs to her.

"Hey..." Lorna's heart jumped a little strangely at this time. Now that she has the money to buy it, she can buy the cloth bear and then buy the car model... But, her left hand is stroking the alien right hand with the body attached to it. .

   Buy a little robot, buy it for that guy Gu He, and treat it as another gift...

   That guy is very strange. He said that he was an orphan since he was a child and grew up in a voodoo ruin.

   But not someone who grew up on the street, Lorna knew at a glance that she couldn't pretend, Gu He didn't have the dirty energy of street kids, and street kids didn't have his kindness.

   No wonder Lao Fan doesn't like him. Older people only like familiar things.

   But she, she is not that old yet.

   After two days, Lorna wanted to talk to Gu He again, maybe because she wanted to get a little from him...the courage to go back to the Bone and Blood area. She left there for more than ten years.

  Click, a steady footstep sounded on the corner of the street, which immediately caught Lorna's vigilant attention.

  Under such a heavy rain, few people can maintain this level of stability, unless it is… extraordinary.

  Lorna turned her head to look, the heavy rain made everything hazy, and the puddles on the road were trampled and splashed.

It was a young woman with a petite figure of only about 1.5 meters, short black hair, a plain black dress, no other decoration, with a faint and gentle smile on her face, like an ordinary passerby who can't be remembered .

   But Lorna saw its falsehood at a glance, and felt a dangerous aura coming from the rain.

   This kind of person, this kind of person grew up on the street, his nerves are numb, and his heart is cruel.

  The woman stopped and the two were about ten paces apart.

   "Lorna Ludd, someone gave me money to cut your head off."

   "Oh." Lorna burst out laughing, "I'll give you double the money, go back and cut that guy's head."

  Why is she not surprised at all about this kind of thing.

   It's like a nerve has been broken long ago, and there is only one response left to everything: Come on, I'll see what happens this time.

"You can't afford that price." The woman in black said, and pulled out a curved red-handled samurai sword from behind. The rain hit the blade, revealing a cold light, "I have no ill intentions towards you, but your A head can be exchanged for a house in Jianggu District.”

   "Is that so? I thought it was a seaside villa in the harbor area no matter what..."

  Lorna narrowed her eyes, and the alien right hand slowly clenched into a fist.

   She had no doubt that the katana sword could cut her head off with one slash.

   It looks like... an assassin class guy?

   Hunter and Assassin, they sound similar, but they are actually two professions with completely different abilities.

The origins of    are also different. Hunters belong to the eleventh house, while assassins belong to the ninth house, both of which are so-called future masters.

   "I'm sorry." The woman in black held the samurai sword and bowed deeply, "My name is Ayako, please give me more advice."

   "Fuck you." Lorna rushed forward against the rain, closing the distance between them.

   That woman may really be an assassin, or she may already be a second programmer, her strength is completely different from those who are muscular and rotten, and even more difficult to deal with than the rudimentary species that has not yet grown into a seed.

   The distance just now made Lorna not confident that she would be able to entangle the opponent as soon as she released her nerve bundles.

   On the contrary, it is very likely that the opponent will use a samurai sword to cut off all the nerve threads and cause her own damage.

  The raindrops hit the neon signs, obscuring the lights, but they can still illuminate this corner of the street.

   However, the woman in black suddenly disappeared, and the whole person was completely invisible with the samurai sword attached.

   is indeed an assassin, and the samurai sword is one of its prosthetics.

   Assassin Profession J-level Program: Stealth

While   Lorna continued to rush away, Green Eyes paid attention to the tracks of the rain and night wind in this space.

  The stealth program can only affect the sensory information of others, especially the visual impact, so that people can't see it, it does not mean that it is really invisible, the woman in black is still here...

  This way! Lorna jumped to dodge, the rain splashed from the original position, and the raindrops were shattered by the blade.

   Her back instinctively burst into cold sweat. If the knife had hit just now, she would have been cut into two pieces by the waist.

   At the same time as these thoughts were flying, Lorna dodged again and again. With the hunter's superb nerve sensitivity, she was always able to avoid the ghostly cold light in advance, as if dancing in the rain, the dance of the blade.

   At this time, the neon sign "Good Store" of the shop with the red window changed the light color.

   changed from red to violet-blue, and at that moment, the light penetrated the rain, reflecting a strange and hazy phantom in the rain that flashed by, and the light image stirred by the samurai sword was a wave.

At this! Lorna's eyes widened sharply, this was a fleeting opportunity...

   Her alien right hand exploded and turned into a nerve bundle state. Countless blood threads fluttered in the sky, rushing towards the phantom, like a spider web entangled in a small bug.

   The humanoid shape of that phantom was immediately exposed to the rain.

   "Caught you!" Lorna shouted, those blood threads pierced through the skin of the opponent's head and forcibly connected the opponent's brain nerves.

  Hunter J-Class Program: Neural Invasion

   However, just after this invasion, she suddenly felt an inexplicable chill, the chill of falling into a trap.

   "Caught you." The voice of the woman in black sounded calmly in the rain, "Are you sure we are just assassins?"

  Lorna stared at the other party's figure reappearing little by little, but she was unable to activate the Q-level program information turbulence.

us? Of course she could hear what the other party said...

The woman in black became taller, with long legs and a high waist, and a face appeared. It was a face she was familiar with and hated to see, with green pupils, big eyes, and a straight nose. Lorna Ludd face.

  Actor Occupational Department, J-level program: Mask

   Now, the woman in black is no longer in a hurry, like a cat controlling a mouse.

   "It's up to you to connect, we decide when to disconnect." The woman said calmly in another voice.

   For a moment, Lorna was covered in cold sweat, and she had never felt death so close like now.

   This woman in black is really a... doll.

  Doll Profession Department, Class J Program: Container

   And the assassin and the actor are connected to this doll through the spiritual network channel.

   Ask for monthly pass, investment, reward, follow-up reading, etc. Some book friends asked why Wah Li changed the title of the book. The answer was that the Cowherd couldn't be used. Another book friend asked Wah Li why he didn't use the Night King. The answer was that the Night King could not be used, neither the Bull King nor the Bull Demon King Use... it's fine now.
