Chapter 20: First Meeting with Lao Wei
"Mr. Xiao? Wake up?"
"Um?"
"Hello Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry to disturb your sleep. We have arrived at our destination."
"Ah~ It's okay. I'm sorry that I fell asleep and didn't listen to your explanation." Because my mind was thinking about the future situation, the events that happened, the next plan and so many other things. In addition, Draman found Mo Wen in the car. After falling into deep thought, I deliberately changed the relaxing and comfortable environment, causing myself to fall asleep in a daze.
"It is my honor to provide you with comfortable service. Do you have any travel services next? Do you need me to wait here?"
"Huh? Won't this affect your company's business?"
"Dear excellence users, it is our company's purpose to provide you with the best quality and most comfortable services. If you need it, I will wait here."
Is it a company policy?
"Then you wait here for a while, I'll go do something."
"Understood, I will wait for you here"
He nodded, then got up and got out of the car
"Ahem~"
As soon as he touched the air outside, Mo Wen couldn't help but cough.
"What the hell?" Looking at a garbage dump not far away in front of him, the stench is no less than that of bad soil.
Looking at the prosperous surroundings, I suddenly felt absurd: "Is this the City of Night? A world where prosperity and chaos coexist~"
After looking around, I found a familiar sign and walked in along a familiar route.
"Misty's secret? This is the right place."
After adjusting his posture, he walked in
After adapting to the change in light, I looked around and saw that there were all kinds of incense sticks, yarrow stems and transport pendants to ward off evil spirits.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
"Uh~", I don't know why, but there are not many guests here like in the game. A few people have just finished divination of tarot cards, or are choosing pendants for transporting people or exorcising evil spirits.
"Ah~ I understand. You are here to see the prosthetic doctor. Victor is in the basement behind. You can see it when you open the door."
After Misty saw Mo Wen's reaction, she showed a clear expression, but still maintained an understanding smile.
"Thank you, then I won't disturb sister's business." After relaxing for a while, Mo Wen realized that his plan to make friends with Misty first and then to get to know Victor had lost his chance, so he decided to go to Victor first, but also He wanted to leave a good impression on Misty, so he said sweetly
"It's okay, go ahead"
After saying hello, Mo Wen slowly walked down the stairs according to the route in his memory.
About to meet the character who is comparable to the protagonist V's 'biological father' in this game, Mo Wen tried hard to calm down the excitement in his heart.
After opening the basement door, through the last fence door, Mo Wen finally saw the ‘Old Wei’ who took great care of V in this game.
"Hello kid, what's the matter?" Looking at Mo Wen, who was obviously not yet an adult in front of him, Victor frowned slightly: Although he is not young at this age, it is not the best to install implants. At that time, after all, installing the implant will limit the growth of the body to a certain extent; after thinking for a moment, he relaxed: he may also be here to check the system or replace the chip. After all, although this outfit is not very good, it is not an ordinary worker's salary. My family knows how to use it, so I asked gently.
Mo Wen, who roughly guessed Victor's psychological activities, couldn't help but complain: This body really has both advantages and disadvantages.
"Doctor Victor? Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Xiao. I heard that you are the best prosthetic doctor in Night City, so I wanted to come and have a look." Keeping the words he got from the game, Out of respect for Victor, Mo Wen said politely.
"Haha~ Just call me Lao Wei, the best prosthetic doctor in Night City? This name is too big. I can't afford it at my age. I'm just a bit skilled." Mo Wen listened. With his sweet words, Victor also smiled: "Okay kid, do you want to change the skill chip? Or update the system?"
"Um~ It's possible that I'm here to install the implant. Also~ I'm actually not that young anymore."
Hearing this, Victor sighed and put on a serious expression: "You are not an adult yet, are you? I still have some eyesight. Your body is not fully developed yet. With the implant If it enters the body, it will restrict your physical development."
It is indeed Victor, one of the few good doctors and good people in Night City.
"Well~ I'm not pretending now, I'm just taking a look and getting to know each other first."
Hearing this, Victor's expression softened: "Sit down first, kid. I'll check you first." He pointed to the operating chair in the middle and said to Mo Wen
After connecting to the terminal, Victor checked Mo Wen's body
"Hmm~ Your body is very healthy, there is nothing wrong with it, but~" Victor paused after checking here, and then looked up at Mo Wen: "Your body is almost native, but the smart connection on your hand is what happened?"
The examination results showed that Mo Wen had no traces of injuries on his body. It could only be seen from his muscle lines and figure that he had been trained, but he should not have been in a marginalized or gang environment. However, this man had a combat-type implant on his hand. It fits into the body, and the model is not low.
This made Victor somewhat confused as to the identity of the young man.
"This, this is a gift from my family when I left."
Giving combat implants as gifts to underage children?
Victor was a little confused: company executives would definitely not give their children combat implants, there was no need; ordinary families couldn't do that, not to mention that they couldn't get them, even at this price, ordinary families couldn't afford it, let alone the lower class; mercenaries? It's possible, but what family would let an underage child become a marginal person?

Judging from the clothes, Mo Wen's family must be rich, how much is hard to say, but this kind of family would let a minor wear combat implants to go out and make a living? Aren't they afraid of being targeted by scavengers?
"Can you show me what implants there are?"
Hearing the voice, Victor stopped thinking and looked at Mo Wen: "Well, take a look for yourself, I'll put it on your eyes"
As soon as the voice fell, he saw dense body data and implants that can be installed in various parts displayed in front of him (refer to the pictures in the game)
Mo Wen nodded and checked the implants in the clinic
"Hmm?" Victor saw that the boy had been looking at the combat implants in his warehouse, and frowned again: "Child, these implants are very burdensome to the body, I don't recommend you to install them"
"Besides, do your family know that you want to install these implants? Do your family agree?"
"Don't worry, Lao Wei, my family also hopes that I will become stronger, so that I can better protect myself, and I have confidence in myself", after generally browsing Victor's implants, Mo Wen Wen disconnected.
"Besides, I'm not installing it now." I'll install the combat implants after the implants I ordered from the medical center are installed and I have a certain level of strength. I thought so.
Victor heard it and thought he had persuaded the boy to change his mind and install it when he grows up, so he was relieved: "Do you want to upgrade the system? Although the system you are using now is not very old, it is also a bit backward."
Hearing this, Mo Wen nodded. Before, Carol in the camp had always helped maintain it. Although Carol had good skills, the wanderers obviously couldn't get a very good system.
"Well~ kid, your system is a bit old, but the ICE protection is good." Victor operated it while talking to Mo Wen: "This makes me a little strange."
Victor understood that it was not good to explore other people's secrets when they first met, so he didn't ask in depth, but just mentioned it out of curiosity.
