Fallout 4: The Wasteland Life of a Pillager

On the way, Yi Beiwang looked at Kate who was walking in front of him from time to time.

I thought to myself, could this guy be a spy planted by the college? How about giving it a test?

Kate noticed Yi Beiwang's scrutiny and sighed helplessly, "So, my new boss, do you want to have sex with me in the wild?"

"Uh... not really, I don't like outdoor battles..."

"Do you want me to take it off and show it to you?"

"It's not necessary."

Yi Beiwang walked to an abandoned vehicle nearby, pretending to search the trunk, took out a metal detector from his system backpack, and scanned Kate.

After scanning three times, the detector did not send out any signal.

This time it was Yi Beiwang's turn to be surprised. He asked, "You are not a synthetic human?"

Kate frowned and asked, "Why should I be a synth? If I were, do you think Tommy would let me go?"

Yi Beiwang put the metal detector on his back and said, "Nothing. I have some conflicts with the academy. I thought they would place a beautiful synthetic human next to me."

Kate smiled disdainfully and said, "You think too much. If you're still worried, I can take off all my clothes and show you."

Yi Beiwang glanced at him inconspicuously, shook his head and said, "Let's do it another day. Let's go back to Diamond City first. Your mission is to protect me. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, at least I won't run away from the battlefield."

"I can rest assured that."

…………

The two returned to Diamond City and saw many guards searching for something outside Diamond City.

Yi Beiwang stopped a guard, handed him a few cigarettes, and asked, "Dude, what are you doing?"

The guard took the cigarette and exclaimed, "Hey, isn't this Yi Beiwang? You just came back? We are clearing the birds in the sky."

"Yeah, am I that famous now?"

"Of course. Piper said that you were the first to discover that those crows were the academy's spies. I don't know what others think, but on behalf of all the Diamond City guards, I thank you for your contribution."

"You're welcome. Search thoroughly and make sure the academy doesn't infiltrate again."

"understand!"

After saying goodbye to the guards, Yi Beiwang couldn't help but sigh.

Kate on the side asked puzzledly: "It seems that everyone has a good impression of you, why do you seem unhappy?"

Yi Beiwang sighed and said, "Because I was heading in the wrong direction. I wanted to be famous before, just to let everyone know that there is a kind-hearted plunderer in the wasteland, and I wanted them to come and join me."

"But now my reputation is: the mysterious and powerful Dragon Countryman, the breaker of Kroger's winning streak, the destroyer of the college's plan... Alas, my plans can never keep up with the changes."

Kate didn't understand Yi Beiwang's idea, and retorted: "I'm sorry to mention it. I don't think you are very strong. Kroger almost killed you at that time."

"Tsk, I'm your boss, you should say something nice."

"Nice words will only make you die faster."

"...makes sense."

After stopping the quarrel, Yi Beiwang and Kate walked into Diamond City. Many people greeted him warmly on the way.

Yi Beiwang responded one by one, and then saw Piper selling newspapers in the crowd.

"Come and see, come and buy, there is a conspiracy of the academy that you don't know about, you only need ten bottle caps to find out..."

Seeing Yi Beiwang coming back, Piper threw the newspaper aside, ran over and hugged him.

Piper: "Boss~ You finally woke up. I was wondering whether I should go back to see you at night."

Yi Beiwang: "Okay, okay, it's nothing, how are those synthetic crows being dealt with?"

Piper: "The guards are cleaning up. Not only crows, but other birds are no longer allowed to enter Diamond City."

Yi Beiwang: "Very good, let me introduce you, this is Kate, the helper that the zombie in the war zone forced to come here."

Piper: "Oh~ You stinky boss, you actually found a beautiful woman behind my back, you really know how to enjoy yourself."

Yi Beiwang: "Go away, I haven't had time to enjoy it yet."

Kate on the side couldn't help but interrupted: "Don't worry, I won't compete with you for your boss, I just want to find a place to make a living."

Piper looked at Kate's figure, compared it to her own, and snorted in anger.

What’s the use of being big? It will catch up with you sooner or later.

"Okay, okay, where's Nick? I need to ask him something."

"In his detective agency. I'll take you there."

"it is good."

The three of them walked towards Nick's detective agency together.

…………

Inside the office, Nick was sitting at the table writing something. When he saw Yi Beiwang and others enter the room, he put down his pen and asked, "Brother Beiwang, what do you want to talk to me about? Are you looking for someone?"

"No, the situation is like this..."

Yi Beiwang told Nick about what happened during the battle with the synths from Concord. He wanted to know if the synths had any high-tech that could accurately locate others.

It would be better to ask the synths themselves about this kind of question.

Nick shook his head and said, "I wanted to ask you about this, too, Brother Beiwang. I'd like to ask you, have you ever been hit by an electromagnetic bomb, or have you ever been to a place with a disordered magnetic field?"

Yi Beiwang asked in confusion: "No, why are you asking?"

Nick replied: "From the first moment I saw you, I noticed that you have a very strange magnetic field."

"It's like bubbles in water, constantly repelling the surrounding magnetic field. It feels like... you are being rejected by this world."

"Most people may not see any problem, but in the eyes of synths, you are continuously releasing electromagnetic signals, just like a beacon in the dark."

Are you rejected by the world?

Yi Beiwang thought that he didn't feel anything unusual during this period of time, and it was probably the plug-in that was protecting him.

Come to think of it, I traveled through time as a human being. In any way, I am not from this world, so it is normal for me to be excluded.

As long as it doesn't affect your normal life it's fine.

Thinking of this, Yi Beiwang asked again: "Does this magnetic field disorder have any effect on me?"

"It really does."

Nick patted Yi Beiwang's shoulder, and as soon as his hand touched his body, he was shocked by static electricity.

"Synthetics are very special in structure. Our magnetic fields will repel yours. Once we come into contact, it will become like this."

"So, apart from the electric shock when a synthetic touches it, there are no other effects, right?"

"No."

Phew, that's good, he can also use this trait to detect synths.

Wait a minute, something seems wrong.

Did the mayor also get shocked when he touched me?

Yi Beiwang recalled the mayor's words and actions, and he didn't seem like a synthetic human at all.

But if you think about it carefully, could it be that he is so opposed to people digging out the truth about the academy just to cover it up?

Yi Beiwang wanted to talk to Piper and the others, but after thinking for a few seconds, he decided to try it alone.

After asking Piper and Kate to look after the newspaper, Yi Beiwang went to the mayor's office alone.
