In Room 204, an eerie silence prevailed.

Dexter stared at Alex Carter with a ghostly expression.

This person!

He actually killed Adam Smasher!

And judging from what he said, it seemed Alex, V, and Jackie were working with Yorinobu Arasaka!

It even appeared that Alex was the one leading!

The situation was entirely different from what was reported on TV.

What in the world happened during those few hours?

"Damn, I don't like men, so it's useless to stare at me like that," Alex said abruptly.

Then, holding "Kue" in his hand, he squatted beside V and looked at Dexter.

"I think you know what your fate is, right?"

"I... Mr. Carter, I, I, I have no ill intentions toward you..."

"Stop," Alex interrupted Dexter's panicked plea, smiling. "It's V and Jackie you should apologize to."

"Besides, do you think mere words will suffice for something like this?"

Prompted by Alex, Dexter's eyes lit up, and he quickly said to V and Jackie:

"Brother Jackie, V, I was confused earlier, and I'm willing to make it up to you!"

"I'll give you all my money, and then I'll leave Night City forever."

"What do you think?"

Dexter looked at V and Jackie expectantly.

As long as he could escape this ordeal, he planned to leave Night City and start anew in Space City.

He believed that with his skills, he could rebuild his life, even from scratch.

Hearing Dexter's offer, V and Jackie's expressions remained unchanged.

For them, some things were more important than money!

However, at this moment, Alex said, "Alright, transfer the money."

"Alex!"

V frowned at Alex.

She was puzzled.

Just outside, Alex had spoken about Dexter's clear intent to kill.

Why was he now so easily swayed by money?

Besides, shouldn't he respect their decision in this matter?

Seeing a glimmer of hope, Dexter hurriedly operated his device.

"V, look at it, 23 million euros and a villa in the North Oak district have been transferred to you."

"Mr. Carter, look..." Dexter looked at Alex hopefully.

"Well, it's here," V replied with a cold face.

It was clear that she was upset now.

Jackie also sat silently, lost in thought.

Alex nodded with satisfaction: "Don't worry, I promise they won't hurt you again."

"Hmph..." V snorted and got up, walking over to the sofa and sitting down.

"V, I don't think it's that simple," Jackie whispered suddenly.

V turned her head, looking at Jackie with suspicion.

Jackie's previously expressionless face suddenly broke into a smile: "Watch, I never miss, chica (sister)."

On the other side, Dexter was full of joy.

"Don't worry, Mr. Carter, this won't happen again."

Alex nodded with a smile: "This time, it's a bad deal. Be careful in your next life."

"Yes, yes, my next... next life?"

"Shink!"

The blood-stained silver blade protruded from Dexter's back.

"You...you..." Dexter raised his hand laboriously, pointing at Alex.

His eyes were full of despair and resentment.

And Alex, shedding his cynical smile, said with a serious expression: "I only said V and Jackie wouldn't shoot, never that I wouldn't."

"If you backstab someone once, don't blame others for doing the same to you."

"Feeling desperate?"

"If it wasn't me, who would be suffering now?"

"Would it be Jackie, who wouldn't have been spared? Or V, who was betrayed by you?"

"Do you think these grudges can be offset by your filthy money?"

"Go to hell, fool!"

"Shink!"

With that, the blade of "Kue" flashed, cutting Dexter's corpulent body in half.

"Thud, thud."

Accompanied by two dull thuds, Night City's most infamous fixer, Dexter DeShawn, was completely killed by Alex's hand!

"Alex... you..."

Seeing this scene, V's anger dissipated instantly.

Especially the words Alex said just before he killed Dexter.

He voiced everything she wanted to say.

And that final, brutal strike.

It was incredibly satisfying.

"What about me? Weren't you just angry?" Alex wiped the blood from the blade on Dexter's clothes, then walked toward V with a smile.

V awkwardly avoided Alex's gaze, murmuring, "It's just that you didn't discuss it with me beforehand."

Alex smiled and shook his head: "This dead fat man was very clever. If we discussed it beforehand, we would have had to show him something."

"How would you search him otherwise?"

"Hahaha, Alex is right, V. I told you it wouldn't be that simple," Jackie interjected with a proud look.

Then he rubbed his hands excitedly: "This job was truly satisfying."

"We nabbed 10 million from Yorinobu, and Dexter gave us another 23 million, plus a villa in North Oak!"

"If you ask me, we should drink to our success tonight!"

However, in response to Jackie's suggestion, Alex smiled helplessly: "I can't do it tonight; I still need your help."
