Chapter 11 Smooth as a rock

After checking the time, which was 10:35 PM, I started walking to Lizzie's bar entrance, this time there was someone else guarding the entrance though, wearing clothes similar to Lix's and similar cyberware.

" Are you supposed to be Lix's new toy?" The woman asked after seeing me getting near the entrance.

I ignored her and went inside, a similar thing happened with another joy toy smoking in the outer area of the bar, continuing to call me Lix's new toy.

' I am starting to regret coming here.' I thought while sitting at the bar, ignoring the people having "fun" around me.

" Aren't you too young to be here?" The male bartender asked me with a smile while raising his eyebrow.

" Do you care?"

" No, what can I get you?"

" Something strong, two shots," I told him while transferring 20 Eddies.

He nodded and grabbed what I recognized as a bottle of tequila, he poured two glasses to the brim and gave it to me.

I immediately drank one of the two and waited for the arrival of the woman who made me get 8000 eddies.

" Oh, you came, here I thought I would have to come search for you." She said right next to my ear, soon after sitting on the stool beside me and drinking the shot without thinking twice.

" I always keep my promise, Garcia won't annoy you anymore."

" And why would I care?" She asked me while raising an eyebrow.

" Please, you just casually were outside, blocked my path while the one outside didn't care, and even knew the specifics for my job, either you were the one that asked for the job, or know the one who asked for it to be done."

" Quite a sharp one, I like it." She said while putting a hand on my leg, slowly massaging it, had I been the same man I was before coming here, I would be aroused and try to hit on her, fumbling horribly, but thanks to a mix of alcohol and Gamer's mind letting me keep my cool, I ignored her hand and ordered another shot.

" Nothing for me?"

" I said I'd give you one drink, not two, I can give you this though," I said while transferring her 500 Eddies.

" You surely know how to make a woman happy don't you?" She mockingly said while receiving the money.

" What can I say, I am a charmer by nature," I said while downing the other shot that had been served in front of me.

" I can see that." Her hand just massaged my inner thigh.

And with a timing that would make most Anime and Cartoons feel ashamed, a woman with green hair came running towards us, well to be more precise towards Lix.

" Lix, fuck, someone is causing trouble in one of the private rooms."

Lix's eyes were annoyed but she sighed and turned towards the other woman.

" Judy, you should seriously train on your timing." She said while getting up from her stool, but not before kissing me, and not the two seconds bullshit, tongue to tongue for 5 long seconds, her tongue modified to be more agile than a normal one.

New Skill

Kissing Lv.1=>3

After those very "intimate" 5 seconds passed she released and went behind Judy who ignored the kiss being more worried about the incident that might happen on the side of the bar.

I continued staring at Lix for another few seconds and then turned back to the barista who was looking at me while smiling.

" First time?"

" Not really, just surprised she was so direct."

" In a city where every turn might lead to death, there is no time for hesitation, it's a lesson I am sure you will learn with time."

I was about to answer him when the screams coming from the side of the room where Lix and Judy had headed started becoming louder and louder.

Getting up from my stool I headed there, something telling me something bad was about to happen.

And as if God didn't want to let me rest, a gunshot came from one of the private rooms.

My body immediately went fight or flight mode, and I didn't have any wings to fly away.

Grabbing my gun, I activated sprint and kicked the door of the room down, activating the time-slowing effect to just give me enough time to understand what was going on.

Standing on the side of the room, a bleeding woman, a Mox, was trying to get away from a man holding a revolver and swinging it around his finger too near to the trigger to my taste.

Lix and Judy also were there, Judy had the bright idea to stand there in shock while Lix grabbed a bottle and dashed to the man to smash it in his head.

But the room wasn't big enough for that, and between a melee weapon and a gun, the gun always wins.

The man saw Lix's movements and was about to shoot her right in front of me, but my already ready for such a scenario I shot the man in the leg and the arm holding the gun, making him kneel and leave the revolver fly away.

Lix ended him by smashing the bottle in his head, either killing him or making him faint on the spot.

" Damn that's too close to my taste, thanks Baby, I think I should give you those eddies back now." She said while laughing, trying to cover her actual fear for her life, her hands trembling just for a second.

" FUCK, THIS IS WHY I TOLD EVLYIN TO MAKE PEOPLE LEAVE GUNS OUTSIDE," Judy said, not being as good as Lix in keeping her cool, going outside most likely to find someone to deal with the possible body.

Putting my gun back in the holster, I grabbed the man's revolver for my use and turned to Lix.

" I think we have enough time to continue our conversation now."
