The real purpose was revealed
Watching the red car slowly drive away, the boss completely panicked.
If he were to escape, it would be impossible to catch him.
He couldn't stay out of this matter today; after all, it happened at his own shop.
Moreover, he knew that Lin Yuan was live streaming.
That's why he acted so proactively.
If he were misunderstood as condoning such behavior, the consequences would be unimaginable.
By then, the police would surely come to investigate, and his shop might very likely be sealed.
He couldn't gamble, nor did he dare to.
As long as the situation remained unclarified, he would bear high risks.
In his opinion, if the Xiao Hu with the backpack was caught, everything would be resolved.
But now, he hadn't brought his car keys, and if he rushed to get them, by the time he returned, the person would be long gone.
Lin Yuan, who was originally about to leave, sighed helplessly at the sight.
He waved to the boss: "Boss, get in, I'll take you to chase him."
Hearing this, the boss felt as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
He quickly ran over, swiftly got into the car, and closed the door.
Immediately after, the car slowly started, and the hum of the engine sounded in their ears.
Lin Yuan looked in the direction the red car had left and stepped on the accelerator, chasing after it.
The car didn't realize it was being followed and kept driving unhurriedly, patiently waiting at every traffic light.
He couldn't imagine that he would be tracked by a Wuling Hongguang.
Along the way, the car only stopped once to refuel at a gas station.
The scenery outside the window also changed from the original brightly lit city to desolation, and the buildings on both sides of the road turned into farmland.
More than half an hour had passed since they left the bar.
Unconsciously, there were fewer and fewer vehicles on the road.
At this moment, the red car in front seemed to realize it was being followed.
At first, when there were many vehicles on the road, he didn't pay attention.
But the Wuling Hongguang had followed him the whole way, and even if he were dumber, he would have realized something was wrong.
So he slammed on the accelerator, and the car instantly accelerated.
With a roar~~
The car speed went from an initial 50 yards directly to 80, and then to 100.
Lin Yuan's heart sank at the sight, and he shouted, staring intently ahead: "Hold on tight! He must have spotted us; he wants to run."
Immediately after, he floored the accelerator, and the car roared violently, quickly catching up.
At this point, the Xiao Hu was completely sure he was being followed.
He drove like a madman.
But no matter how much he accelerated, he couldn't shake off Lin Yuan.
He panicked!
Sweat like soybeans dripped from his forehead.
He couldn't understand why he was being targeted.
Through the rearview mirror, he watched the relentlessly pursuing Wuling Hongguang.
The Xiao Hu gritted his teeth, steeled his heart, as if he had made a decision.
Suddenly, he sharply turned the steering wheel, and the car headed towards the dark mountain area.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan quickly applied the brakes repeatedly, reducing speed, and turned the steering wheel hard to the right, giving chase.
The road leading into the mountains had no streetlights, and it was entirely covered with trees and winding paths.
The road surface was very rugged and bumpy, relying entirely on high beams for illumination.
But as he drove, Lin Yuan was stunned; the red car was gone!!
In the pitch-black night, there was no trace of any other vehicles.
He was a little helpless.
If it was just about driving skills, he was confident enough to catch up.
But on this kind of road, he couldn't see clearly at all.
He could still see the red car before the turn, but after he made the turn, it vanished.
The people in the car were a little disappointed, each slapping their thighs in frustration.
Especially the bar owner, who looked even more despairing.
Precisely at this moment, the police station called again to inquire about the situation.
He could only bite the bullet and report everything he knew.
The police immediately stated that they would bring people over.
Looking at the pitch-black scenery outside the car, with only the hum of the car in his ears, the Photographer asked uncertainly: "Brother, what do we do now?"
Lin Yuan shrugged: "I don't know, let's look around, if it's really impossible, we'll leave."
To be honest, he still found it incredible.
The red car had vanished into thin air, how was that possible?
In fact, it was true.
At this moment, on the dark road ahead, a red car was speeding rapidly.
If one looked closely, only a faint shadow could be seen in the darkness through the moonlight.
It hadn't turned on its lights!
Let alone high beams, even the automatic lights that detect darkness were turned off.
The Xiao Hu looked at the lights behind him, which were gradually slowing down, and a smug smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The reason he chose this road was because he was very familiar with it.
But the dilemma was also because he was too familiar with it; he couldn't just bring people in here.
Yet, he had no choice.
He had to take a gamble.
Turn off the lights while turning, and rely on his familiarity with the road and the moonlight to floor the accelerator and escape.
Facts proved, he succeeded.
After driving for another ten-plus minutes, he completely shook off Lin Yuan.
In his opinion, Lin Yuan definitely wouldn't pursue him anymore, probably thinking he had secretly run away.
One could only say he underestimated Lin Yuan too much.
The car drove along the mountain road for half an hour before slowly coming to a stop.
The moment he saw the red car parked not far away, everyone was stunned.
The boss exclaimed on the spot: "It's here?? Oh my god, how did it get here? Did it fly over?"
The Photographer also found it hard to believe: "Brother, you're too amazing, how did you know it was here?"
Lin Yuan smiled faintly: "Actually, I didn't know either; I just felt it couldn't disappear into thin air. As for why it's here, I think it's most likely because he's familiar with the road, driving in the dark."
After hearing Lin Yuan's explanation, everyone suddenly understood, but still found it unbelievable.
It was the first time they heard of someone driving in the mountains without lights; what was the difference between that and seeking death?
Lin Yuan quietly reminded: "If I'm not mistaken, this place is very likely their base camp!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions changed, and a look of fear involuntarily appeared on their faces.
The bar owner said nervously: "No way, this place looks like it's in the middle of nowhere..."
Lin Yuan, however, smiled indifferently: "It's precisely because it's in the middle of nowhere that it's safe. And think about it, why would he be so familiar with the mountain area roads? Isn't it because he comes here often? What would a normal person do coming here every day for no reason?"
"Oh, right!" The Photographer quickly agreed: "Then, then... are we still going to chase? Those people are all vicious criminals; if they catch us..."
Hearing this, the few people exchanged glances; although they couldn't see each other's faces clearly, they could feel each other's fear and worry.
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and said with a bitter smile: "Let the police handle this kind of thing; we'd better not go up."
"Yes, yes, yes~~" The Photographer, afraid of death, was the first to agree.
The others were no exception and all agreed with this decision.
However, as expected, an unexpected event occurred.
Just as they had made their decision and were about to get into the car to call the police car to report the situation.
Suddenly!!
A sound of footsteps was heard in the mountain forest.
Immediately after, seven or eight people wearing masks suddenly appeared beside the car window.
Before Lin Yuan and the others could react, they saw American-style fishing nets appear before their eyes.
Instantly, everyone's pupils contracted in fear, and they couldn't stop trembling all over.
