"Wow, this place is really big. If it weren't for the war, ordinary people wouldn't be able to afford to live in this area."

Ling Luxian pushed the door open and looked up to see the entire layout of the room. To put it bluntly, Regina's base was nothing compared to this house.

In the cyber society, every inch of land is valuable. If it hadn't been destroyed by the war, the rent for this house alone would have cost you at least one or two million.

Unfortunately, when war comes, no matter how luxurious it is, it will eventually become a refuge for the poor.

"Damn, this place is too dark. Zhaomei...where have you been?" Seeing that Song Zhaomei was not in the shelter, Miles frowned.

She knew that Song Zhaomei was always reliable, but it was really worrying that she was not by her side at a time like this.

Ling Luxian wanted to laugh, and started calling Zhao Mei at this time. Didn’t he call her “Lark” all the time before, so happily?

The child is dead and you are breastfeeding, but it’s too late!

Ling Luxian ignored Miles and looked around. There was still a lot of life here, which meant someone had been here before.

I touched the table again and found a layer of dust on it, indicating that no one had been here for a long time.

I don’t know why, this is obviously a very good place to live, but no one comes to live here. There must be something fishy.

Ling Luxian shook his head. Now was not the time to think about this. The most urgent thing was to get the electricity fixed. He didn't want to stay in the dark.

"There are signs that someone has been here, which means the facilities are complete, but it looks like no one has been here for a long time. I'll go check the switch, maybe we can still use electricity today."

Miles agreed with Ling Luxian's statement, "Okay, although we need to keep a low profile now, it's too outrageous not to even use electricity.

Besides being convenient for staying overnight, it also allows you not to miss today’s radio show.”

After a long pause, Miles was afraid that Ling Luxian would think he was being hypocritical, so he added, "We urgently need to know the situation outside. If Hansen takes any action, we can receive it from the radio."

Ling Luxian shrugged, "Do you think I'm a child? You don't need to explain this to me."

"Okay, I'll go change my clothes and leave the switch to you."

Ling Luxian glanced at the clothes on the bedding roll. They had been thrown here for a long time and were dirty and messy.

There are some small insects crawling on it, and no one can tell whether these insects carry any pathogenic bacteria.

Although Ling Luxian disliked Miles, he felt he needed to tell her.

"The clothes here have been abandoned for who knows how long. They are dirty and smelly. Are you sure you want to change into the clothes here?"

"No matter how dirty or smelly it is, it's better than the presidential system. If we are discovered, we will be finished."

"Okay, that's the truth. I thought you would never wear it just to protect your image. Now my perception of you has been completely changed."

Ling Luxian turned around and strolled around the room, and found a generator in a corner of the room.

It looks like it was modified from the engine of an old car. I have to say that the previous residents who lived here had strong hands-on skills.

Ling Luxian tried to start the engine, but as expected, it wouldn't start.

After all, the fuel is diethanolamine, and alcohols are volatile. After such a long time, there may be no fuel left.

Maybe it was because there was no power? Ling Luxian looked at the battery connected to the engine and saw that there was obviously a battery missing.

Ling Luxian searched the room and found a bunch of damaged hummingbird drones, the kind that children play with.

It is estimated that the previous group of people mistook the battery of the Hummingbird drone for the battery of the battery.

"Okay, let me see if there's any power left."

Ling Luxian said to himself as he removed the battery from the Hummingbird drone.

Returning to the room where the engine was previously placed, Ling Luxian installed the battery into the car and tried to start the engine again.

The engine made a dull roar, then slowly started to run, and the light bulb above the head flickered a few times before lighting up. It seemed that the fuel in the engine had not completely evaporated.

"Ha, success." Ling Luxian showed a hint of pride on his face.

At this time, Miles, who had changed her clothes, came over. She was wearing that slightly worn-out dress and a baseball cap on her head.

"Good job," Miles praised. "Come and see what I found?"

Miles carried a large box and placed it on the table.

When they were put down, you could clearly hear the sound of the glass bottles colliding with each other.

"Wow, I didn't expect there was beer here."

Ling Luxian finished tinkering with the engine and came over. He was a little surprised to see Miles find a box of beer. "I say, won't you get diarrhea if you drink it?"

"Don't say such spoiling words at this time, let's drink together."

"Okay." Ling Luxian took a bottle of beer and said to Miles, "You look good in this outfit. You look like a human being."

Then he bit off the beer bottle cap with his teeth, tilted his head back and took a sip of beer. "Pah, flat beer, it's worse than drinking horse urine."

"It's good to have it, but you still despise it."

Miles turned the knob of the radio, not paying much attention to what Ling Luxian said.

[This is Jillian Jordan, and let's turn our attention back to Night City. Tonight, there are still many speculations about the plane crash. ]

[The New American representative claimed that President Rosalind Miles was on this plane when the accident happened.]

[City officials have not issued any statement yet. However, a familiar figure decided to say a few words.]

[Earlier today, Dogtown's self-appointed leader, Kurt Hansen, held a press conference to give his perspective on the situation.]

[Hansen: I was framed, isn't it clear? The New America has long been eager for my death.]

[Hansen: Although I have many problems, I am not stupid enough to commit suicide. Don't turn a deaf ear to what happened in Dogtown. I urge everyone to consider the real reasons behind this farce.]

[Hansen: Whenever the opportunity arises, the New America will reach out to Dogtown. This is not the end, it will be Night City's turn sooner or later. Remember, war is coming again.]

"Fuck!" Miles was furious when he heard Kurt Hansen put the blame on New America. "These guys are really looking for death."

"Haha~" Ling Lu laughed out loud, "This guy is quite smart. He went to the media and shouted that the new America is going to start a war again.

The Night City democracy was so frightened that they tried to tie Night City to their own chariot. This is a really smart move. President Miles, what do you think of Hansen's speech?"
