"What? Hanako Arasaka committed suicide? Was it the daughter of Saburo Arasaka, sister of Yorinobu, Hanako Arasaka?" V exclaimed.
Because of Alex Carter's appearance, V still didn't know Hanako Arasaka very well.
But that didn't stop her from realizing the importance of this matter.
Jack also sighed: "That's right, it's her. God knows what these rich people think."
"It's a good life, but why can't they see it? Noloentiendo (can't understand)."
"Hey? Alex, why don't you seem surprised at all?" Jack asked curiously.
V also looked at Alex suspiciously.
Because of the security of ordinary communication, Alex did not explain much, but said: "Jack, come over first, I have something to tell you."
"Okay, I'll come right now, that..." Jack patted his head in embarrassment, hesitating to say anything.
Alex was keenly aware of his hesitation and asked, "What's the matter? Is there anything else?"
Jack smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that Misty and I are together, we might come over together later, I don't know if that's convenient."
"Damn, why don't you ask me about this?" Alex said, feigning anger: "You really treat me as an outsider, don't you?"
"It's almost time for dinner, come over, I'll call Doc Vic and let's get together."
"Okay! We'll head over, see you in an hour." Jack happily hung up the call.
Alex was also in a good mood.
Gathering with everyone was something he had already wanted to do.
It's just that it's been delayed because of this and that.
How could he be unhappy with this rare opportunity?
"Alex, why don't we call Mrs. Wells too?" V suddenly suggested.
Under normal circumstances, Mrs. Wells would have been called.
But it seemed that Mrs. Wells didn't like Misty very much, so V was a little hesitant.
Alex thought for a while and said, "Sure, you can call Doc Vic, and I'll call Mrs. Wells."
The two acted separately.
In order to prevent any awkward situations, Alex informed Mrs. Wells that Misty would be coming tonight.
"Don't worry, Alex, I've thought it over during this time. It's most important that Jack can live happily."
"Whoever he wants to live with in the future, just let him be."
Although at the end of the story, Misty and Mrs. Wells also reconciled, Mrs. Wells's attitude was still somewhat unexpected to Alex.
But fortunately, things were going for the better.
After contacting Doc Vic, V came to Alex again and asked in a low voice, "Judy has been on her own recently... should we invite her?"
Hey!
Alex was delighted!
He was figuring out how to suggest bringing Judy over, but V took the initiative to mention it.
He naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
"Call her, so she doesn't get immersed in Evelyn's departure."
A flash of joy appeared in V's eyes, and she ran to the side to call Judy.
As for Alex, although he still wanted to call Panam and Takemura over, he reconsidered.
If Panam comes, his backyard is definitely going to be on fire.
As for Takemura... he's probably thinking about how to comfort Oda right now.
With the invitations sent, it was time to prepare food and drink.
"V, you can buy some wine, snacks, etc., just leave the dishes to me and Mrs. Wells," Alex said.
However, after hearing Alex's words, V had a strange look on her face.
"You? Can cook?"
It's been 7702 years, how many people still cook for themselves?
Although everyone can make a hot dog or something, on such occasions, you can't give everyone that kind of food, right?
"Wait and see, you'll know when the time comes," Alex said confidently.
V shook her head and smiled: "Okay, if you mess it up, no one can help you."
After speaking, V connected to the network and started placing an order.
Alex also picked fresh vegetables and meats from the list.
It is worth mentioning that in this day and age, all ordinary people can eat are genetically modified vegetables and synthetic meat.
As for fresh vegetables and meat, the prices are ridiculous.
However, with a huge amount of money, Alex didn't care about such a small amount.
Soon, items ordered online were delivered to the door by small cargo drones.
After marveling at the convenience the rich enjoy in this era, Alex began to prepare the dishes.
Seeing Alex's skillful technique, V was also shocked.
Looking at it like this, Alex is not only good at cooking, but he also seems to be excellent at it?
Soon, the villa welcomed its first guest.
Mrs. Wells!
"You're very nice here, Alex." Mrs. Wells glanced around the villa.
Although she said so, there was not much envy in her eyes.
Instead, it was more calm and composed.
After a brief chat, Mrs. Wells didn't stand on ceremony and directly occupied the other half of the kitchen, busy with Alex.
It's just that the two of them worked separately, and the difference was clear.
More than 20 minutes later, Jack, Misty, and Doc Vic arrived.
The three came in a special Drumman car. Apparently, Jack should have been at Misty's shop at the time of the call.
Seeing Mrs. Wells, Jack and Misty looked a little surprised.
Especially Misty, it was her first time here, so she was even more restrained.
"Alex, you didn't tell me in advance that my mother would be here!" Jack whispered.
"Isn't this helping you promote the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?" Alex smiled.
"Don't worry, I found out that Mrs. Wells's impression of Misty has changed a lot, so don't worry."
"Okay, that's the only way to go." Jack looked a bit downcast, then seemed to think of something and asked:
"By the way, Alex, what are you trying to say when you called me over this time?"
Alex glanced at Misty, who was helping in the kitchen, and Mrs. Wells next to her, and whispered:
"You and V go and ask Doc Vic; he knows almost everything."
"Doc Vic? Okay, I'll go over and ask."
Soon, the exclamations of V and Jack came from the living room.
"That Hanako is Alex? The real Hanako is already dead?" V couldn't believe her ears.
Doc Vic smiled wryly and said, "I was also taken aback at the time, but that's how things were."
"When Alex became Hanako before, the implants on his body were put on by me."
Jack clicked his tongue: "Tsk tsk, no wonder Alex wasn't surprised at all when he heard the news, he really is capable."
"That's Hanako Arasaka!"
Less than half an hour later, Judy finally arrived.
V first introduced Judy to everyone, and then took her to tour the villa.
But beyond Alex's expectations, what Judy was most interested in was their busy kitchen.
"Alex, are you making... braised pork?"
"Yes, you know?" Alex glanced at Judy in surprise.
He really didn't expect that Judy actually knew something about Chinese food.
Judy smiled embarrassedly and said: "I saw it in a food super-dream, and it tastes... very good."
"It's just that I haven't found an authentic Chinese restaurant in Night City."
"Then you're in luck this time." Alex saw that the sugar was ready and hurriedly put the processed meat into the pot.
"Let me tell you, my cooking will definitely make you want to come back for more."
"Then I'll look forward to it." Judy chuckled and left the kitchen.
The sky gradually darkened, and the news of Hanako Arasaka's suicide finally stopped circulating on TV.
In a cheerful atmosphere, the dishes prepared by Alex and Mrs. Wells were served one after another!
Mrs. Wells made two oversized bacon cheese pizzas, a turkey, apple pie, and a big plate of macaroni and cheese.
And Alex's side was much richer.
Boiled fish, braised pork, Kung Pao chicken, fish-flavored shredded pork, sweet and sour pork loin.
A full five hard dishes, plus a large pot of rice.
In fact, Alex was a little nervous at this time.
He didn't know if these popular dishes from his past life would stand out in the world of cyberpunk.
