Goodbye, Night City is an SOS: Merc Needed gig from Dakota Smith in the southern Badlands. The smuggler Bruce Welby was caught crossing the border with hot cargo, and Militech border security has held him for days in a detention centre on Coachwhip Lane. His friend Archibald Crane, a Militech employee himself, chose friendship over the company and asked Dakota to get him out, without Militech noticing.

Story

A Friend to Lean On

Dakota sets it up in the journal. Sometimes a person needs a friend to lean on. Sometimes a person needs a friend to break them out of an immigrant detention centre on the border between Night City and South California. Bruce Welby needed the second.

Bruce tried to cross the state line with hot cargo, and it did not go to plan. Militech border security has had him chained up for several days. His friend Archibald Crane, a Militech employee, heard about it through the grapevine, and Dakota can hardly believe it: the corpo decided to help his friend instead of toeing the company line. V is the missing piece of this friendship triangle. V is to find Bruce, break him out and take him to his friend Archie, and Militech must not notice a thing.

The Compound

Drones, mines, snipers and turrets guard the walls of the Militech compound. Bruce sits on the ground beside a tent in the detention area, watched by a turret.
