Chapter 154 Judy's Commission
After the three of them discussed, V looked at Jack and nodded, then walked outside to call Mo Wen.
"V? What's wrong? What's the matter?" Mo Wen, who was resting on the bed with Lucy, answered the call immediately, still a little confused: Wouldn't something happen again at this time?
"Nothing, Xiao, it's just that I remember you told me before that Evelyn Parker was with you, right?"
"Well, I took her in for a while before, but then I sent her away. What do you want to do with her?"
"It's not me, Xiao, do you still remember Judy, the Mewtwo editor at the Ritz Bar? She asked me and Jack to help find Evelyn Parker, so I came to ask you."
"Well~ This is a bit troublesome~" Hearing V's words, Mo Wen also remembered this matter. In the original 2077 plot, Judy seemed to like Evelyn, and Evelyn got into trouble later, and Judy was also tracking her down.
"What's wrong? Do you have other arrangements, Xiao?" V frowned slightly when he heard Mo Wen's words, but it was okay. This commission was just discussed well, and he and Jack had not officially accepted it yet.
Mo Wen recalled that after the news passed and it was confirmed that it was safe, he asked Evelyn about the arrangements later.
"V, this commission will not work out for you. When the rumors were over, I asked her where she wanted to go. Finally, I sent her away from Night City at her request. I don't know where she went afterwards."
"Is there any way to contact her?"
Hearing this, Mo Wen could only shake his head and said, "No, V. When she left, Evelyn said she wanted to change her identity. That is to say, she may not be called Evelyn Parker now. Naturally, she cannot be contacted, let alone found."
In fact, Mo Wen still has a way to find Evelyn Parker. After all, Mo Wen has opened the system map, which has a search function that can search within a certain range. In addition, Evelyn was arranged by Mo Wen when she left, so if you follow the direction, you can always find her based on some clues.
However, Mo Wen thinks that since Evelyn has left and changed her identity, it means that she wants to cut off contact with the past. After all, the two of them have some fate, so Mo Wen respects her choice.
Therefore, Mo Wen chose to conceal V's inquiry.
"V, since Evelyn Parker chose to cut off the past, it means that she doesn't want to be found by her old friends, so I can't help you with this matter, and neither can you and Jack."
"Well, I know, I'll tell Judy later, thank you for troubling you again this time."
"It's okay, then you go ahead and do your work."
After that, the phone was hung up, and V turned around and entered the computer room again.
"How is it, V? Did you get anything?"
Judy had already received some news about Evelyn from Jack, so when she saw V come in, she looked over with hopeful eyes and asked.
In response, V just shook his head, indicating that Jack could not complete this commission.
Seeing V shaking his head, Judy was instantly anxious: "What's wrong? Can't find it? I have a little clue here. There are records at Genting showing that Evelyn took an outing order before leaving..."
Seeing that Judy wanted to say something, V stepped forward to stop the other party from speaking.
"Okay, Judy, I already have clues about Evelyn Parker, but it's very difficult to find her. We can't take this job~"
"What's wrong?!!! What's going on? Tell me!"
"Hmm~" V was a little skeptical at first. After all, it seems that Judy is very dependent on Evelyn, and the relationship between the two is not ordinary. At least Evelyn is important to Judy, but now Evelyn has left alone, which means that Judy may have been abandoned...
If I tell Judy directly, she will probably be hit hard, but since she insists, V naturally can't hide it. After all, the two of them don't have much relationship, so there is no need to worry so much.
"Judy, don't get excited yet. You need to be prepared for Evelyn's whereabouts." After comforting Judy a little, he slowly said, "I got the news that Evelyn has left Night City!"
"What? This is impossible!! Why didn't she tell me that she left? And I can't contact her now!!"
"Nothing is impossible, Judy. Evelyn has changed her identity now, which means that she may not be called Evelyn Parker now, so naturally there is no way to find her. It is difficult to find someone in such a big world... We will not accept this commission. This news is for you. We will leave first."
After that, V took Jack out of the computer room, leaving Judy alone slumped in a chair.
On the other side, Mo Wen was sitting on the bed, thinking about the news he had just received.
In the original plot, after Evelyn committed suicide, Judy chose to let V help seize Cloudtop, which was under the Tiger Claw Gang. After the success, Cloudtop was retaliated and cleaned by the Tiger Claw Gang, and then Cloudtop was completely closed. Judy also chose to leave Night City afterwards.
But the current situation is that Evelyn is still alive, but she chose to leave Night City alone to cut off the past, so what will Judy choose next?
If Judy chooses to leave Night City, then Mo Wen's shares in the Ritz Bar will be useless.
After all, Mo Wen was not short of money, and he only acquired part of the Liz Bar because of the relevant plot. Once the Liz Bar lost Judy, the genius Mewtwo editor, the only money-making function of Liz for Mo Wen would be greatly reduced, which would basically be useless to Mo Wen.
We have to find a way to maximize its value~
On the other hand, Jack and V received an invitation from Riverward to have dinner with Joss.
Originally, River wanted to invite Mo Wen, after all, in the incident of rescuing his nephew Randy, although Jack and V also made a lot of efforts, it was Mo Wen who found and rescued him in the end. Unfortunately, River himself did not have Mo Wen's contact information, so he could only wait until Jack and V came to make plans.
"Hey! River, how's Randy?"
"V, Jack, you're here. Randy is still in the hospital. He's out of danger, but he hasn't woken up yet."
"Relax, brother. The boy will be fine."
"I know. Thank you, Jack, and V, thank you for your help. Oh, and Xiao."
"Haha, Xiao is the main force this time. If it weren't for him, we might not be able to rescue people so quickly this time~"
"Yeah~ But I don't have his contact information, so I didn't call him. Can you contact him?"
"Well~ Xiao should be eating at this time. Maybe next time~"
Jack, who knows Mo Wen best, naturally knows Mo Wen's schedule. Even if he doesn't know, Jack knows that Mo Wen must be with Lucy at this time. Compared with Officer River, who is not very familiar with him, Mo Wen will definitely choose Lucy!
