Chapter 13 Meeting with Mann

I don’t know if Wilson will change.

Ling Luxian continued to practice the use of other firearms.

With previous experience, the next step will be much faster.

After a morning of practice, Ling Luxian mastered the basic expertise of other types of firearms, including sniper rifles.

"Okay, now I'll take you to meet our boss." Pila patted Ling Luxian's shoulder and motioned him to stop first.

"Okay, let's go." Ling Luxian replied.

Pyrrha looked at Jack and said, "Jack, come along."

"Me?" Jack pointed at himself. "Okay then."

The four of them left Wilson's shop one after another. Wilson saw them leaving and hurriedly asked, "Are you leaving now?"

Ling Luxian nodded, "Yes, we still have some things to do."

"Okay, see you later. Then Jack, I'll treat you guys to dinner some other day." Wilson said politely.

In fact, he was eager for everyone to leave.

The sooner you postpone the dinner invitation, the better. It would be best to postpone it until they have forgotten about it.

"Okay, let's do it another day." Jack said happily.

Of course Jack knew what Wilson was thinking, but he would not give Wilson this opportunity.

Jack's eyes made Wilson feel creepy.

"Hehe." Wilson could only send them off with a smile.

You can offend anyone but not the God of Wealth.

Everyone got into Pila's old car, and Ling Luxian asked, "Where are we going to meet your boss?"

Pyrrha ruffled his slicked-back hair with her hands, "Of course it's the next life."

Before Ling Luxian could say anything, Jack became excited.

"Next life? I'm going there because that's where the big brothers gather."

"Jack..." Ling Luxian looked at Jack helplessly. He knew that Jack had always had a dream of making a name for himself.

But this behavior now is too uncalm.

"Oh, sorry, I'm too excited?" Jack said, straightening his clothes. "Would it be too abrupt for me to go there wearing this?"

"No, the afterlife is actually a place for mercenaries to gather. You can wear whatever you want." Rebecca's voice came from the co-pilot.

Pyrrha parked the car in front of the afterlife.

Jack kept whispering in Ling Luxian's ear, "Iron Driver, do you know? I heard that the next life is a converted morgue. People in the past were really interesting. They even built a morgue specifically for the dead."

"Okay, Jack, calm down. You are going to be the big brother in the future. How can you let such a small scene shock you?" Ling Luxian quickly comforted Jack.

Otherwise, you will be embarrassed by the looks of people around you.

Pyrrha led everyone into the basement, where Aymeric was still guarding the door.

"Good afternoon, Aymeric, you are really dedicated to your duties." Pyrrha greeted Aymeric.

Aymeric did not respond to Pyrrha, but pointed at Ling Luxian and Jack and said, "Who are they?"

Pyrrha turned to look at Ling Luxian, "They are the two people my boss wants to see."

"Well, Mann? All right then." Aymeric dragged out his nasal voice, "Welcome to the afterlife. I hope you will abide by the rules here and don't cause any trouble. You will bear the consequences at your own risk."

After saying this, Emrick made way for them to pass.

"Hey, Iron Pilot..." Jack was about to say something when he was interrupted by Ling Luxian.

"I know, it's the pounding sound of Night City's heart. Okay, calm down." Ling Luxian said.

"Oh my god, how do you know that before I even told you?" Jack was shocked, thinking that Ling Luxian had the ability to read minds.

"Come on Jack, your thoughts are written all over your face, okay?" Ling Luxian complained.

Pyrrha led everyone to a private room, "Come on, this is it."

Ling Luxian walked in and saw Mann with his arms resting on both sides of the sofa, his legs crossed, looking down at Ling Luxian.

"sit."

"Humph!" Ling Luxian snorted inwardly, thinking that he was trying to intimidate himself.

Ling Luxian crossed his hands in front of him, looking very businesslike. With his suit, he looked like a corporate dog looking at some small fries on the street.

Ling Luxian's appearance frightened Mann.

Mann slowly changed his sitting position and said, "Please sit down."

Ling Luxian didn't directly slap him in the face, saying something like "I'll sit if you let me sit, I don't care about face."

Instead, he told Mann, "For the sake of Pyrrha and the others, this is the only time. I hope you can clearly understand that we are having an equal conversation. Watch your attitude."

After saying that, he took Jack to his seat.

After Ling Luxian sat down, he asked, "Would you like to introduce yourself?"

Mann's face looked a little grim, as the initiative in the conversation was already in the hands of the other party.

However, Mann still introduced them: "Pira, you also know Rebecca. The big guy next to me is Dolio, my right-hand man. The one sitting on the right is our hacker, Sasha.

Now, it’s your turn to introduce yourselves.”

Ling Luxian said calmly, "Iron Pilot. The one next to me is Jack."

After the introduction, the atmosphere seemed to be silent for a moment.

Finally, Mann couldn't stand the pressure anymore and spoke first: "Pilot, I heard that you seem to be from the company? You are at a high level?"

Ling Luxian nodded, "Yes, I'm from Kang Tao. As for whether my rank is low or not, the director of the department is my subordinate anyway."

"Hmm~" Mann pondered for a moment, "It seems that my teammate has saved a big trouble."

Then Mann raised his head and looked at Ling Luxian, "Have you really lost your memory?"

"Of course it's true, otherwise, with the current company dog's behavior, do you think he would be friends with you?"

It makes sense, but I was speechless.

"Won't the company come looking for you?" Mann asked.

"The company won't die without anyone. Besides, it's still unclear whether I'm the real leader. At least in the short term, my disappearance won't cause any big trouble," Ling Luxian explained.

Oh my god, so pretentious. Mann really wants to hit someone.

"What are your plans next?" Mann continued to ask.

Ling Luxian pondered for a moment, "Before you recover your memory, you should hang out on the streets for a while. If I recruit your team directly, you may not be happy. So, you help me find a hacker I can trust, and I will form a team to play with first."

Mann's heart is bleeding. You haven't asked me yet, so how do you know whether I am happy or not?

Such a good opportunity to curry favor with someone was missed in vain.

Mann even wondered if he had just acted too much and scared the boss.

In fact, Ling Luxian said this on purpose, because a team formed in this way has no cohesion.

There will be plenty of opportunities to make friends with Mann in the future, so there is no need to rush.

There was no choice but to swallow the bitter pill. "Okay, I'll help you find a hacker you can trust. If you need any help, come to me and I'll definitely help you."

Ling Luxian nodded and extended his right hand to Mann, "Then from now on, our two teams should take care of each other."

"Okay, it's a deal." Mann quickly stood up and shook hands with Ling Luxian.
