Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 183 42. Collapse
"Andy?"

Carl came to Andy and called his name again, but got no response.

The young man who had his fingers broken did not even scream, but just stared at Carl with his prosthetic eyes, raised his hand towards him, and his thumb kept moving, as if he was pulling the trigger on a virtual pistol.

Not a word, not a single word.

He didn't even move a step.

Carl looked at Andy. He had already seen the situation behind the car and understood why Andy just stood there and pretended to pull the trigger.

Because there is someone beside him who must be protected and cannot move a step.

A young girl who had been dead for a long time, still wearing colorful and revealing clothes.

Carl noticed the gunshot wound on the girl's chest. Based on his medical skills which had improved a lot, he saw that the bullet came from behind and penetrated the heart accurately, taking the girl's life almost instantly.

He glanced at the girl's skin, which was covered with scars and was vaguely exposed under her revealing clothes, and let out a long sigh.

"Ahh.ah."

Listening to the sound coming from the depth of Andy's throat, where there were only mechanical movements, his brain should have completely stopped, and only instinct was still driving his activities, Carl knew that Johnson and the others and himself had guessed wrong, and Andy was not a cyber-psychopath.

He just got too much of a shock.
A mental breakdown. That's all.

Carl did not try to approach the girl who was protected by Andy. He reached out and pinched Andy's carotid sinus, causing the young man who had lost his voice and acted on instinct to faint. Then he took out the Fulukang Type III and stabbed it into Andy's chest.

The dead are already dead, but for the living, the bleeding still needs to be stopped first.

After letting Andy lie down comfortably, Carl took off his clothes.

In Night City, in order to protect against the acidic rain, Carl usually wears a jacket with a bulletproof plate when he goes out. However, this jacket now has a more important task than when it was worn on Carl.

Being alive is already miserable enough, and when we die, we cannot abandon our dignity.

After putting the now useless coat on the girl to cover up the exposure and wounds that shouldn't exist, Carl heard the sound of vehicle engines and noise coming from the entrance of the parking lot.

"That bastard and the runaway bitch are in here, hurry up!"

"Everyone follow me. He dared to offend our Tiger Claw Gang. Today, I will let him know what despair is. I will tie him up later. I will play with the bitch who hooked up with him in front of him!"

"Hang him up, chop him alive with a knife, and then send this Mewtwo out onto the streets to show everyone who tries to provoke us what the consequences of provoking our Tiger Claw Gang will be!"

Along with the sound of vehicles roaring in, six vehicles full of Tiger Claw Gang members rushed straight into the underground parking lot.

The car door opened and members of the Tiger Claw Gang got out of the vehicle holding various weapons.

"This underground parking lot is not big. Search it all. There is only one exit. He can't escape today!"

Amid the shouting of a member of the Tiger Claw Gang who was holding the Shingen smart submachine gun and was obviously the leader, a voice that did not come from their side sounded in the underground parking lot.

"You can't run away."

Along with that calm voice, the parking lot gate behind the Tiger Claw Gang was controlled to fall.

“Because I’m closed.”

Amid the sound of the falling steel garage door, the calm voice was accompanied by a figure that walked out from the dim garage light and appeared in front of the twenty-four members of the Tiger Claw Gang.

The black-haired young man in the light was extremely conspicuous, just like the sunlight shining in this dim garage.

"You are!"

The members of the Tiger Claws pulled out their guns and pointed them at the black-haired young man. They did not shoot directly because they wanted to capture Andy, who dared to mess up the place. However, after raising their guns and pointing them, the 24 members of the Tiger Claws realized that this man was not Andy. Andy was not as young as him, and Andy did not have black hair. Andy.
It's not like he is known by everyone in the Tiger Claw Gang.

Trembling.

Compared to the gun in hand and the instinctive trembling of the body, what felt fear first was the beating heart.

When they saw the face of the person in the light, the expressions of every member of the Tiger Claw Gang changed drastically.

Either terrified, or in disbelief, or panicked.

There is not a single Tiger Claw Gang member present who does not recognize this young man, and there is not a single Tiger Claw Gang member who does not know who he is.

“KK!”

According to rumors, the mercenary KK had nothing to do recently, so he rushed into the home of a powerful person in Beixiang and killed that person and his professional security team!

I heard that the powerful person whom they all had to look up to died like a dog in front of this guy!
What's going on? Aren't they chasing a street mercenary who dared to offend their Tiger Claw Gang? Why would a character of KK's level appear in front of them?

Compared to the other Tiger Claw members who were almost unable to hold their guns and began to swallow their saliva, the leading Tiger Claw member was at least the leader of the team. He mustered up some courage to face KK who was calmly watching them, barely held the gun tightly, and said in an effort to calm the tone:

"What do you mean KK?"

In order to prevent KK from misunderstanding, he added: "We are not looking for you, Andy stay here, we only want them, we don't want to mess with you."

"But it's you I'm waiting for."

Carl gave a smile that was not warm at all:

"I'll give you a chance. Tell me why your Tiger Claw Gang has been kidnapping people so frequently recently."

"Abduct people."

After hearing what Carl said, the leader of the Tiger Claw Gang muttered to himself and repeated: "What are you talking about?"

He had a puzzled look on his face, as if he knew nothing.

next moment.

"Shoot, he's alone, get rid of KK!"

The leader of the Tiger Claw Gang raised the Shingen smart submachine gun in his hand, and at the same time, roared at the surrounding Tiger Claw Gang members.

He had never concealed this behavior from Karl from the beginning to the end.

"It seems like this is a big secret involving the Tiger Claw Gang."

Karl didn't think it would be so easy to ask.

But it doesn’t matter. At worst, I can just read the communication information records on my personal terminal later.

Anyway, from the moment this door is closed.
They can't run away.

"Help!!!"

"Run, break down the door, only a fool would go against KK!"

"Hurry up and call the terrorist squad. We are facing a madman!"

"Cyber ​​psychosis!"
