"Strength"
Misty then revealed the second card.
"Tough will, self-control, and courage will pay off."
Next came the third card.
"Reversed Hierophant."
Misty frowned: "Be cautious, a reversed Hierophant lurks in the shadows."
"He brings a crisis of life and authority, and rebellion and madness pose a visible threat."
Alex Carter nodded solemnly.
He could guess that the reversed Hierophant might refer to either Hanako Arasaka or Saburo Arasaka, who was in the oracle at the time.
If they discovered his plans with Yorinobu Arasaka by some means, they would stop at nothing.
"The last one, the Sun."
This was a golden tarot card.
"This is a good omen; the Sun signifies truth, illuminating the darkness that conceals the world's secrets, and it's a symbol of greatness and glory."
"Heh... that sounds impressive." Johnny looked at the tarot cards with interest, a hint of skepticism in his voice.
A smile appeared on Alex's face.
Anyway, the Sun is indeed a very positive card.
"Thank you, Misty."
"You're welcome," Misty said as she put away her deck and looked at Jackie: "Jackie, Alex will be a good partner for you, I have a strong feeling."
"Of course, ever since I met Alex, my luck seems to have turned around." Jackie appeared excited.
After the divination, the trio left the psychic shop and grabbed a quick bite before heading to the villa in the North Oak District.
After all, who wouldn't want a taste of the lavish lifestyle of the wealthy in a magnificent villa?
For Jackie and V, the prospect was quite enticing.
It took more than half an hour of driving with stops and starts to get there.
This was partly because Little China, where they were, wasn't too far from North Oak District.
Otherwise, the journey would have taken longer.
This time, Alex truly appreciated the challenges of transportation in the cyberpunk world.
Adhering to traffic rules and speed limits was nothing like the game, where you could drive however you liked.
It didn't matter if someone was in front of you; you could just run them over.
Plus, you could use fast travel points.
For the first time, he realized how crowded and chaotic Night City really was.
It wasn't until they reached North Oak that the situation improved.
"Ah... the environment here is nice; even the air doesn't stink as much."
Johnny sat nonchalantly on the car roof, surveying the scenery.
"We've arrived."
V slowly drove the car to the villa's entrance.
After the camera scanned V's identity, the gate opened.
At the same time, the villa's intelligent AI connected to the car: "Dear Miss V, welcome back."
"Dexter DeShawn, the villa's previous owner, has successfully transferred ownership of the villa. What are your instructions?"
V was momentarily stunned and then said, "It's okay, we're just here to take a look."
"Okay, I detected that you have two guests. Would you like drinks prepared?" the AI asked.
"Ha, that's thoughtful." Jackie rubbed his hands in satisfaction.
Wasn't this kind of life what he'd always fantasized about?
After a brief explanation, the three got out of the car and walked into the villa.
In the courtyard, there were meticulously arranged rock gardens and flowing water.
Combined with some cyberpunk-style lines and decorations, the fusion of ancient and modern elements complemented each other beautifully.
The yard was so expansive that it took a while to walk around.
Looking at the surrounding environment, which was far superior to the civilian areas, Alex couldn't help but be impressed.
It truly was the world of cyberpunk.
The rich man's paradise.
The poor man's hell.
"Whoosh..."
The entrance door, about six or seven meters high, opened, revealing an immaculate living room meticulously cleaned by the robotic housekeeper.
Furniture with a technological flair, massive floor-to-ceiling windows several meters high, and precious mural decorations...
All in all, V and Jackie were a bit overwhelmed.
As for Alex, he wasn't particularly impressed.
Compared to this, he still found living in V's place more interesting.
"Drip..."
Suddenly, the sound of a communication alert caught Alex's attention.
The caller ID read Yorinobu Arasaka.
"Alex Carter! What the hell is going on?"
As soon as the call was answered, Yorinobu's angry voice rang in Alex's ears.
"We're supposed to be cooperating; why did you save Goro Takemura?"
"What's your agenda?"
Seeing Yorinobu's accusatory stance, Alex smiled indifferently:
"What's the big deal? It's just a few mercenaries, isn't it?"
"Saving Goro doesn't affect your plan, so don't worry."
Looking at Alex's smiling face, Yorinobu's anger didn't dissipate.
After a moment of silence, he said coldly, "I hope you honor your promise, knowing we don't have much time."
"I know, I know, you're such a nag. Goodbye," Alex muttered and hung up the phone.
But coincidentally, as soon as Yorinobu's call ended, another call came through.
Seeing the caller ID, the corners of Alex's mouth turned up slightly.
He answered the call, and Goro Takemura's voice came from the other side:
"Alex, I need your help!"
