Chapter 84
Investigating Su Qiu
Just as the car was about to enter the edge of the city.
A buzzing sound of propellers came from behind, getting closer and closer.
It carried a chilling sense of oppression.
Xiao Xitian's voice tightened instantly, trembling with tears: "Host! They're catching up! It's a helicopter!"
There were quite a few, three or four of them.
The voice just fell.
The sound of machine gun fire tore through the night sky.
Bullets rained down on the roof and body of the car, making a piercing metallic clang.
A metallic fire dragon appeared in the sky.
Su Qiu jerked the steering wheel, trying to avoid it.
But the car suddenly slid under the intense gunfire.
With a "hiss" sound.
The tires lost traction, and the entire vehicle crashed uncontrollably into the mountainside beside the road.
"Bang--!"
A loud bang.
The front of the car slammed into the hard mountainside, the hood instantly deformed and bulged, and glass shards flew everywhere.
Su Qiu was thrown against the steering wheel by the huge impact, and her vision went black for a moment.
Before she could even recover from her shock...
The machine gun on the helicopter was once again aimed at the deformed vehicle body and began firing wildly.
The firepower is becoming increasingly concentrated.
Sudden.
With a deafening roar, the sound shook the heavens.
The car was hit by a combination of intense gunfire and impacts.
The fuel tank was detonated, and a raging fire broke out instantly.
Flames shot into the sky, illuminating the surrounding night sky as if it were daytime.
The shockwave from the explosion swept outwards, stirring up smoke and debris.
The helicopter hovered over the flames for a moment.
Only after confirming that the target had been destroyed did they slowly turn around and disappear into the night.
Mountain roadside.
All that remained were burning remains and ever-spreading flames, crackling in the silent night.
……
Shen Yi sat in the living room all night.
The sky outside the window gradually changed from pitch black to light white.
The clock on the wall had already passed one in the morning, but Su Qiu still hadn't returned.
He scratched his hair in frustration and muttered a curse:
"Damn it, where did you run off to?"
When I dialed Su Qiu's number again, the same cold message came through the receiver: "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."
He stared at the name that had gone dark on the screen, his eyes red-rimmed.
She hastily wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, her voice full of grievance: "Liar...liar..."
I can't wait any longer.
Shen Yi suddenly stood up, picked up his phone, found Linzhou's number, and dialed it.
The call was answered quickly, and he got straight to the point, his voice still choked with emotion and undeniably firm:
"Linzhou, help me find out about Su Qiu. She said she was going to the Su family for dinner last night, but she hasn't come back yet and isn't answering her phone."
"Use all your connections immediately to find out where she is right now. Not a minute can be wasted!"
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yi paced back and forth, his fingertips digging into his palms.
Since she went to the Su family, she must still be in the city.
As long as he's still on his territory, I don't believe we can't find out.
He needed to know where she was, and he needed to make sure she was alright.
A vague unease always welled up in my heart.
Even if that damned woman ran away, we need to make sure he knows where she is.
Why did they disappear without a word?
He won't answer the phone.
Damn woman!
……
Outside the neon-lit luxury bar, the evening breeze carried a slightly tipsy smell of alcohol.
Zhao You walked out with a group of friends, men and women chatting and laughing.
After having a great time, they were preparing to go home.
He waved goodbye to several familiar friends and turned to leave.
One of the boys suddenly leaned closer, his eyes filled with curiosity:
"By the way, do you really have Su Qiu's contact information?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao You immediately raised his chin, his face full of smugness:
"Of course! I ran into her by chance last time, but I didn't recognize her at the time."
That car he was driving, wow, it's so cool, a limited edition worldwide!
The group of people who had already started walking stopped abruptly and surrounded them.
The name Su Qiu has recently become quite attractive in their circle.
The things she caused in the last few incidents all showed a fearless and reckless attitude.
He's got a fiery temper; he's all about fighting if he's not convinced.
This made these pampered young people incredibly envious.
Everyone hopes to meet this big shot.
Not to mention having a way to contact them.
"The Su Qiu you're talking about, is she the Su Qiu from Qiu Yi Group?"
A girl with a high ponytail asked with sparkling eyes, her voice brimming with excitement.
Zhao You nodded firmly: "That's right."
"Really?" the girl exclaimed excitedly. "Could you give me her contact information? Sister Sa! I love her so much!"
"I want some too! I want some too..."
The people around them joined in, all wanting to get involved in this connection.
Zhao You was finding it rather difficult to handle, so he scratched his head and said:
"You guys go back first, I'll send her a message to ask what she thinks."
I was originally planning to invite her to go racing; you guys should all come too.
If you want her contact information, go ask her yourself. Whether it works or not depends on your abilities.
"well!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately agreed.
After exchanging a few more jokes, they finally dispersed.
Zhao You watched his friends walk away, then turned and walked towards his car, muttering to himself as he took out his phone:
"I hope she'll agree..."
He opened his chat window with Su Qiu and quickly typed out a line of text.
I asked her if she was free, and we wanted to arrange a time to go to the racetrack.
The message has been sent.
He leaned against the car, waiting for a reply, a slightly expectant smile on his lips.
Last time he agreed, he didn't dare to say anything, he only introduced himself.
The other person also gave their name.
After that, Zhao You stopped sending messages.
He was afraid of disturbing Su Qiu.
This is the first time I've sent a message to them.
Zhao You leaned against the car, his fingers unconsciously tapping on his phone case, waiting for Su Qiu's reply.
When you lift your head and move your neck.
His gaze inadvertently swept over the dark alley behind the bar, and his eyes narrowed suddenly.
I don't know why.
I always felt that something was hidden in that thick, impenetrable shadow.
Like a lurking beast, it exudes an indescribable eeriness.
He hesitated for a moment, then took a step and walked into the alley.
There were several discarded cardboard boxes piled up at the entrance of the alley. Walk a few steps further in.
In the dim light of the distant neon lights, I could vaguely see what appeared to be a person leaning against the wall.
It was a dark, indistinct mass, and its shape was impossible to discern.
"Hey, is that you?"
Zhao You called out tentatively, his voice sounding somewhat abrupt in the empty alley.
There was no response from the other party, only the clanging sound of the wind sweeping through the trash can.
Zhao You frowned and took a few more steps forward.
When they were only two or three meters apart, the dark figure suddenly moved.
next second.
A dark gun barrel suddenly rose up and was pointed steadily at his forehead.
Zhao You's blood froze instantly, he stood frozen in place, and his pupils shrank sharply.
He met the other person's eyes, which were filled with coldness and murderous intent.
That look was terrifying, like someone had just been pulled from a sea of blood, carrying a murderous aura that could crush a person.
"No...no..." He was so frightened that his legs went weak.
He collapsed to the ground with a thud, cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
His back was instantly soaked, and even his voice was trembling.
The other party is preparing to pull the trigger.
Just when he thought he was about to die on the spot.
The other party slowly lowered his gun.
Followed by.
A hoarse voice, as if it had been sanded, rang out, filled with deep weariness:
"Zhao You".
Zhao You's heart was still pounding wildly, almost leaping out of his chest.
The call was like a thunderclap, instantly clearing his muddled mind.
He looked closely in the dim light and saw the face, stained with blood and dust, yet still vaguely discernible in outline.
Zhao You's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed in shock:
"Sister Su Qiu?!"
How could it be her?
How did she end up here?
What happened to make her look like this?
