"No, don't touch him!"
Gloria immediately looked panicked: "I will do as you say, please don't hurt her."
As she spoke, she picked up the phone, took a deep breath, and then dialed a number.
"Don't try anything funny. In Night City, no one can save you."
The man looked at Gloria, narrowed his eyes, and warned her.
"How could that be? David and I are an orphan and a widow, all alone and helpless in Night City. Even if we wanted to play tricks, it wouldn't be possible..."
As she spoke, she dialed a phone number.
"Hey, Silver Wolf, are you there...?"
On the other end, the burly and handsome Dorio answered the phone.
However, she was interrupted by Gloria's words just as she was about to speak.
She immediately calmed herself down: "Yes, is there anything I can help you with, Gloria?"
"You left your wallet at my house. You shouldn't have gone far, right? Why don't you come back and get it? It's so late, be careful on the road."
Something happened...
Dorothy's heart skipped a beat when she heard Gloria's words.
Her voice was very distinctive; even if Gloria was exhausted, she wouldn't mistake her for the Silver Wolf after she spoke... In that case, there was only one possibility: the other party was in danger! Perhaps, they had already been taken into custody.
"Understood, I'll be there soon, don't worry."
With that, she hung up the phone.
Nearby, Mann, shirtless, came over and started groping her, but the next moment Dorio punched Mann away: "Don't just stand there, get dressed! Gloria's in danger! She should be under control!"
"What? Does that mean my prosthetic body is going to be a waste?"
Mann got up from the ground without caring, rubbed his face, and then said somewhat impatiently.
"What time is it? You still care about your cybernetic body? I think you'll die because of it sooner or later!"
"Dorio said impatiently."
"That won't happen."
Mann shook his head seriously and said, "I'll only die on your belly."
He was met with an uppercut from Dorio.
"It shouldn't be the people investigating the prosthetics. If it were, Gloria wouldn't have contacted us. Besides, if it were those people, they wouldn't have given Gloria a chance to speak. She's probably dead by now... Tsk... Kivi worked very hard during the day, and she probably doesn't have the strength to fight now. Let's call Lucy. She'll be fine."
As she spoke, Dorio put on her clothes, picked up the phone, and started calling for help.
Those who dared to touch us were getting impatient.
Her face looked fierce.
As a veteran mercenary in Night City, Mann's team is very powerful, and can even be said to be among the best.
However, compared to other mercenaries, Mann and Dorio, although they would do things for money, could be considered good people.
At least in Night City, not killing innocent people indiscriminately is already considered being an excellent mercenary.
"I'm sorry, Lucy, Qiwei isn't feeling well today, so I had to ask you to come over at the last minute."
Lucy moved quickly, and after Lucy arrived, Dorio said apologetically to her.
"What happened?"
Lucy shook her head dismissively, then asked.
"One of our partners has been kidnapped..."
Dorothy didn't hold back and gave Lucy a brief explanation of what had happened.
"We need your hacking skills. The other side may have hostages. I need you to hack the criminals and ensure the safety of the hostages."
"Dorio said."
"What does it matter? Leave everything to me. If anyone dares to touch my people, I'll wipe them all out."
"Mann said irritably."
"Idiot! Is all you think about is cannonballs? What will happen to your prosthetic body if Gloria gets hurt or dies?"
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Lucy nodded.
With that, Mann led Dorio and Lucy directly into the car, where driver Falk had been waiting for some time.
"Speaking of which, the person they're looking for should be this Silver Wolf, right? Gloria should be under their control. She called me Silver Wolf, so it seems that this Silver Wolf has offended someone and dragged Gloria into it."
As a cyberpunk mercenary with many years of experience, Dorio quickly analyzed the situation logically and clearly.
"Silver Wolf?"
Upon hearing the name, Lucy paused, looking at Dorio in surprise.
"Hmm? What's wrong? You've heard of this name before?"
Dorothy looked at Lucy.
"Well...or rather, I know her. She's a very strange little girl...very dangerous."
As soon as Lucy spoke, both Mann and Dorio's expressions became more serious.
Although Lucy has only been a member of the group for about a year, their hacking skills are quite impressive. Lucy herself said they were very dangerous, so it seems they really are.
"It could also just be a coincidence."
After she finished speaking, Lucy gently shook her head.
The next moment, the group sped towards Gloria's house.
Meanwhile, Silver Wolf, along with Mike and Yuan, was also rushing towards Gloria's house.
"What's wrong? Why have you been in such a hurry since just now?"
Mike looked at the speeding silver wolf and couldn't help but feel curious.
“My friend is in trouble, of course I have to go.”
When he left, Silver Wolf had already anticipated that this matter would not end so simply. After all, the other party must have a lot of connections to be able to run a hospital in that place for so long, and it was only a matter of time before the investigation led to David and his group.
So when they left, Silver Wolf deliberately loaded a virus module onto the two of them.
Silver Wolf would know if the two were in danger and would rush to their aid immediately.
Of course, Silver Wolf wasn't worried about the two dying while he was traveling, because the virus had a built-in repair function. Even if they were reduced to dust, Silver Wolf could still preserve their consciousness with the virus and then create another body for them.
As for why Silver Wolf didn't erase their images and information?
Of course, it's because that would be too boring.
Anyway, no one will get hurt, so let's just treat it as triggering a side quest. Since it's a quest, we have to follow the process. Who skips the process and goes straight to the end?
Of course, logically this is Silver Wolf's business, and Mike and Yuan don't need to go. However, the two of them are currently figuring out how to recruit Silver Wolf, this abnormally strong guy, into their group. Since they're just idling around anyway, they might as well lend a hand.
Then, almost by coincidence, Silver Wolf and Quinn's group all arrived at the foot of David's house.
"Lucy, hide in the shadows and sneak up with us. Don't come with us, or we'll alert them."
Dorothy looked at Lucy beside her and said, "I don't know what the enemy's situation is. In that case, as a hacker, Lucy can't act with them, otherwise the enemy will easily find a weakness."
"I understand, I'll go up from the other side."
Lucy nodded. Fortunately, David's house wasn't on a tall building, so she could climb the stairs to her position and then wait for an opportunity to act.
With that, she turned and walked away.
After entering the staircase, they bumped into the silver wolf.
"Hmm? A little girl, and two men who look dangerous... Forget it, it's best not to cause trouble, lest something really happens to Gloria."
Quinn said silently to himself.
Meanwhile, Mike was also observing Quinn and his group.
"This cybernetic body, cyberpunk? What am I doing here... Oh well, I'll just follow Silver Wolf, nothing else matters..."
Yuan and Mike exchanged a glance, and the two groups fell silent for a moment. Then, with a ding, the elevator doors opened.
Both groups got on the elevator at the same time.
Then, when it came time to select the floor, both sides froze.
Are they all on the same floor?
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little solemn.
Such a coincidence doesn't exist in the world.
Therefore, the other party must have come with a purpose.
"Fine, let me ask you, what are you doing here?"
Silver Wolf looked at the other person, crossed his arms, and asked.
"And what are you doing here?"
Quinn, not to be outdone, stared at the silver wolf, and for a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat tense.
"I need to speak with my friend."
"I also need to speak with my friend."
Under inexplicable circumstances, a strange misunderstanding arose between the two groups.
However, the atmosphere eased somewhat the next moment as the elevator doors opened.
"Silver Wolf?"
Lucy, who had been hiding in the shadows, quickly came out after seeing Silver Wolf, especially after the atmosphere between them became somewhat tense.
"You're the silver wolf Gloria was talking about?"
Dorio looked at the silver wolf with a look of surprise on his face.
