Chapter 827! Afterlife Bar
Chapter 827! Afterlife Bar
……
Let’s not talk about what happened at the Ritz Bar for now. Shen Ye has already arrived at the door of the Next Life Bar.
Shen Ye was relieved that there were no four women blocking him at the door as he had imagined. Otherwise, he would have to experience the Shura field before drinking the wine... although that was something that everyone welcomed.
After straightening his clothes, Shen Ye walked into the bar, but strangely, when he entered, the people from Mann's team had not arrived yet, considering that it was they who sent out the invitation today.
But it doesn't matter. Shen Ye walked directly to the bar and said to the bartender: "Give me a Johnny Silverhand."
To be honest, the last time he came, Shen Ye didn't have the chance to ask the bartender to make him a drink. He just drank some whiskey, which was probably his favorite drink. Now that other people haven't arrived yet, he has to order himself a legendary...
Yeah, legendary.
The legendary Johnny Silverhand.
But to be honest, Shen Ye didn't have a good impression of Johnny Silverhand. Although he had some rebellious spirit, hated capitalists and opposed big companies, he didn't like Johnny's style very much... Like most people who opposed companies in this world, he only thought about destruction and never thought about construction.
But this is not the main reason. Wanting to sleep with female V is the biggest mistake.
Thinking this in his mind, Shen Ye watched the bartender mixing the cocktails.
A glass of aged tequila.
Mexican beer.
Unacceptable bitterness...
All in all, this is much more complex than the Jack that later became a legend, so the flavor is also more complex.
After taking a sip of the prepared Johnny Silverhand, Shen Ye silently put down the glass, thinking that he would never take a second sip.
Whether it's the Starfall Canyon mixed by Tifa or the most ordinary cocktail mixed by KING, they taste much better than Johnny Silverhand.
He prefers sweet taste...women are sweet.
Shen Ye ordered another glass of whiskey on the rocks and drank it while waiting for the arrival of Mann's team. However, that would require a long wait as there would always be various reasons for them to be late.
Then a woman came up.
"Isn't this wine tasty?"
The woman, who looked to be only in her forties or fifties, looked at the glass of wine in front of Shen Ye and asked with some surprise. In the past, those who ordered this wine would drink it all in one breath, regardless of whether it tasted good or not.
“It’s just not to my taste.”
Shen Ye knew the woman in front of him. She looked to be in her forties or fifties, but was actually over eighty years old. However, she looked much younger than Wakako and still had a bit of charm... Perhaps only Johnny Silverhand would think so.
Rogue, Johnny Silverhand's comrade-in-arms and girlfriend, the owner of the Afterlife Bar, the queen of Night City's underworld, and she is also one of the most powerful middlemen in Night City.
If Jack were here, he would probably remove the word "one of" from the list. To him, as long as one is a middleman, he can be described as the best.
"Tell me the reason." Roger is Johnny's girlfriend. She has never forgotten that man for decades. After hearing Shen Ye's words, she said.
"It's too stimulating, without any aftertaste." Shen Ye spoke the truth. The aftertaste he was referring to was the sweetness and the aftertaste.
But it was obvious that Roger thought too much and thought Shen Ye was evaluating Johnny.
"He really didn't leave any leeway for himself. Once he left, he never came back." Rogge said somewhat uncomfortably.
After a pause, Roger continued: "Last time I saw you came with your friends..."
"I'm just waiting for them." Shen Ye pressed his finger on the rim of the cup and circled it: "You should know them, Mann, they come here often."
"That group of mercenaries... it would be more appropriate to call them Edgewalkers." Rogge laughed. "They used to take over missions from me, but to be honest, their skills are too poor. They are only suitable for taking on some delivery missions without any danger."
"You think too little of them." After all, there were four women in Mann's team that he knew, so Shen Ye still wanted to say something good about them.
"Very low? But that's the truth. I remember they took a job stealing biotechnology data, but something went wrong." Rogge knew a lot about what happened in Night City, and then she frowned and looked at Shen Ye: "You look familiar."
"Just an ordinary face." Shen Ye said modestly.
"Absolutely not." Rogge shook her head, but she really couldn't remember, because the big company openly ignored the search for Shen Ye, causing the underground world of Night City to not care about it, and they just knew there was such a person.
"I definitely know you." Roger said seriously.
Shen Ye shrugged: "It sounds like an honor to me, because I have also heard of you, Rogge, the most powerful middleman in Night City."
"I can't say I'm the most awesome one, because there's also a Mrs. Westbrook..." Roger waved his hand, appearing very modest.
In response, Shen Ye didn't say anything else, but just took a sip of wine silently.
Immediately afterwards, several familiar figures entered the Afterlife Bar.
"Sorry, we had some trouble on the way and we are late."
Sasha was the first to speak. The cat-headed girl was wearing headphones that she wore when on missions. The headphones that looked like cat ears made her look very cute, but she seemed to ignore Rogue who was sitting next to her.
However, the other members of Mann's team were more perceptive, especially Mann. He was devoted to the future of the team and when he saw Rogge, he called out in a reserved manner: "Ms. Rogge."
"It's been a while since we last met, Mann." Roger held the wine glass and looked at the people in front of her. When Mann's team came a few days ago, she just watched from a distance and didn't say anything.
"Sasha, I remember you, but didn't something happen to you?" she continued.
"Shen paid to save me." Sasha had drunk with Mann and Rebecca in the next life before the accident. She was very familiar with this underground queen.
"No wonder...but you are really cute." Rogge is an experienced person, probably born in the 1980s, so she guessed some inside information.
Hearing this, Qiwei frowned, Lucy just lit a cigarette, and Rebecca touched the holster at her waist. She felt that she was the cutest one among them.
Sasha just smiled. She didn't care what others said. She just felt that her advantage was not being cute.
He glanced down.
Chest, legs, waist, and butt.
Which one is not more worthy of praise than appearance?
She covered her chest with one hand, not to cover anything, just a gesture, and then she said to Shen Ye: "We have to celebrate tonight, Shen, if I get drunk, remember to take me home!"
