In a small airport on the outskirts of Lin Hai.
Three helicopters painted in black were ready to take off. The strong wind blew the thin snow on the ground, making it flutter like catkins on the banks of the Rose River in early spring.
However, the fully armed people next to the helicopters didn't have the time to be sad. Xue Naiyin, the director of the Black Eagle Security Company, stared coldly at the subordinates rushing from behind. He looked down at the time on his watch and said loudly, "The cell phone signal has been located. The target is trying to escape from Lin Hai through the three blockades set by the Federation Investigation Bureau."
"According to the analysis, the target can only break through two blockades at most. Our mission is to intercept the target before the third blockade." Xue Naiyin had been retired from the military for six years, but he had been performing paramilitary tasks in the Black Eagle Security Company. His words were still as concise and powerful as a military officer.
"Last time in the gymnasium, you lost all your face. This time, you must earn it back!" Xue Naiyin stared into his subordinates' eyes and said fiercely. He added a sentence to himself in his heart, especially in front of the young master's friend. If it wasn't for that person last time, perhaps he would have already committed suicide by swallowing a gun.
"Change equipment."
Following the order, Black Eagle, one of the most powerful security companies in the Federation, began to change equipment. A box was opened, and all kinds of spray equipment were moved over. The combatants of the security company wore bulletproof vests with the police logo, and the three black helicopters were quickly sprayed with the logo of Lin Hai Police Headquarters.
"Let's go!"
Xue Naiyin ordered, stepped on the scattered snow and boarded the helicopter.
…
…
The dark underground parking lot brought a strong sense of uneasiness to Xu Le. He sat in the passenger seat of the small truck, looking at the continuous countdown on the screen in his hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "Fifteen minutes until the next location."
After escaping from the small building, the two of them had been intercepted several times by the Federation Investigation Bureau. Through the calculation of time and Shi Qinghai's understanding of the Investigation Bureau's execution power, Xu Le roughly figured out the time needed for each location.
The small truck was hit by a sniper rifle earlier and almost capsized. The exploded metal pieces flew everywhere, and the situation was very dangerous. At this time, Shi Qinghai got out of the sedan beside the truck and nodded at Xu Le, indicating that it was done.
"It's alright." Xu Le exhaled and wiped away the trace of blood on the corner of his eyebrows. He jumped out of the truck with the help of his metal crutches and got into the car with a new owner. He said with lingering fear, "It should only be a Sequence Five. Otherwise, we would have died long ago."
Shi Qinghai lit a cigarette. His handsome face was full of exhaustion. He had been on the run for less than an hour, but he was already mentally and physically exhausted. It was even more painful than running for the past month. No matter where he hid, it wouldn't be long before the electronic surveillance network that covered the entire Federation would receive the data from the chip on the back of his neck and feed back his position to the Federation's Investigation Bureau that was in charge of pursuing him.
There was really no hope for this kind of escape.
"You know a lot," Shi Qinghai looked at Xu Le and said very seriously, "You surprised me."
"If you had believed in my ability to pick locks, the time it took to get rid of that sedan could have been much faster." Xu Le said, "In the end, I don't know you, and you don't know me well enough … If you really want to live, you have to believe me."
"I don't have the time to listen to your nonsense."
Shi Qinghai obviously didn't believe that there was anyone in the world who could remove the chip on the back of his neck. Even if an extremely sophisticated surgery could do this, how could he survive in the Federation without the chip? He smiled and said to Xu Le, "Although we don't know each other's secrets, at least we're in a life and death situation right now."
He suddenly frowned and said in disgust, "But I think this is very shameful. Why do you want to die with me?"
"I also think it's very strange. Why did you come back to Linhai to see me when you had clearly escaped?" Xu Le said, "That's because you knew someone was investigating me, so you wanted to warn me … Speaking of which, it's really quite boring. No wonder Tai Zhiyuan kept trying to stop me from coming back."
"Even if I didn't come back, I would have been caught by the Federation in the end, unless I had the ability to escape to the Great Triangle." Shi Qinghai took a deep drag on his cigarette. He had already thrown away the empty pack. He glanced at Xu Le and handed the remaining half of the cigarette to him. "But you're different. If you were still lying in the General Hospital, these things wouldn't have a damn thing to do with you."
Xu Le took the half of the cigarette and took a deep drag. Then he found that the mouth of the cigarette was wet and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
"I have countless women and colleagues in my life, but the ones who really care about me are probably that teacher of mine and you." Shi Qinghai's smile was a little dim. "Teacher is already dead. I was hoping that you could survive. After I died … at least there would be someone to clean my grave for me, and someone to arrange a bouquet of flowers for me on the anniversary of my death."
"I also have very few friends, so I can't lose any of them." Xu Le used two fingers to clamp the already short cigarette butt and took a deep drag. He almost choked and coughed. "As for why I came, you don't believe me, Tai Zhiyuan doesn't believe me … I think Jian Shui'er, who helped me escape, also doesn't believe that I can really help you."
Xu Le did have the ability to help Shi Qinghai escape from the Bureau of Proclamation. This was the biggest secret in his life, and it was hidden in the metal bracelet on his wrist. When his friend was in a desperate situation, Xu Le certainly wouldn't be stingy with sharing this secret. It was just that he didn't have the opportunity to change Shi Qinghai's ID chip when they were in the small building. Later on, they were in a hurry to escape, so he really didn't have the time.
Xu Le had changed his ID chip before, so he knew that the intense pain, as if the electric current was passing through the body, was really unbearable. It was very likely that the person involved would fall into a coma. In fact, he had been unconscious for several hours that rainy night. If Shi Qinghai had fallen into a coma at this time, and his leg was lame, he really didn't have the confidence to escape from the government's arrest.
So he changed the SIM card back to the original one and waited silently and nervously.
"You really know Jian Shui'er?" Shi Qinghai subconsciously glanced at the baseball cap on Xu Le's head. Only then did he notice that this baseball cap was indeed a little too small and cute. He shrugged in disbelief. "Or is this the coldest joke I'm going to tell before I die?"
"We'll talk about that later. I just want to explain once, why I want to go back to Lin Hai, and why I want to help you."
Xu Le threw the cigarette butt out of the window. His nose twitched slightly, and he said with a calm face, "From the assassination attempt on Tai Zhiyuan in the gymnasium, to the death of your superior, to you being hunted down … Everything was caused by Zhang Xiaomeng. Whether she did it intentionally or not, it's still her responsibility."
"Zhang Xiaomeng is my woman. She made a mistake, so I want to help her solve it," said Xu Le.
Shi Qinghai tilted his head and looked at him. After a while, he said, "I just realized today that you're like a civil rights hero who lived in the early days of the Constitutional Era, the embodiment of justice … The problem is that it's disgusting. You're just a male animal whose cerebral cortex has been affected by the concentration of alcohol."
Hearing the profanity, Xu Le smiled. He thought to himself that his cerebral cortex was indeed abnormal. He stared at the hologram on Shi Qinghai's wrist and began to count down. "Thirty seconds left."
Shi Qinghai lightly stepped on the accelerator and stared intently at the exit of the underground parking lot. He pointed at a direction on the hologram and said, "Confirm whether this road is clear or not."
Xu Le looked at the map on the hologram and said, "No problem."
…
…
The stolen car found a road in the middle of several streets and alleys. It turned into a cloud of dust and broke through the roadblocks set up by the police. Once again, it rushed into the streets of Linhai City. Countless police cars and black station wagons, which were very characteristic of the Federation Investigation Bureau, began to chase after the car. The sirens were long and loud. At this time, only the traffic monitoring system of the police headquarters in Linhai City was enough to ensure the success of the chase. They no longer needed the help of the Bureau of Proclamation's location.
"This is a slow suicide." Shi Qinghai suddenly turned the steering wheel and avoided a truck in front of him. He said loudly, "As a professional, I shouldn't listen to you and drive away … I can find a random house and point a gun at a beautiful woman as a hostage. I can hide for half a month!"
Xu Le replied, "You forgot the location of the Bureau of Proclamation."
Shi Qinghai's face changed slightly. He cursed loudly, "Fuck the First Charter!"
On the parallel streets, police cars with flashing lights had begun to appear. From time to time, fierce figures could be seen from the corners of the streets. Shi Qinghai took a deep breath and focused on the front. He said, "I'm ready to fight and then die … If you can't create any more miracles, you can get out of here."
"I'm also waiting for a miracle." Xu Le held the phone tightly. Sweat gradually seeped out.
At this time, the phone rang. It showed a strange number.
"I'm Xu Le."
"My surname is Xue. How can I help you?"
Xu Le smiled. He turned his head and told Shi Qinghai the coordinates. The two quickly found the street indicated by the coordinates on the hologram map.
Shi Qinghai drove the car and made a forced turn. He barely got rid of the two police cars that were closest to him and sped toward the street.
…
…
This was a long straight street with no forks. At the end of the street, there was a faint buzzing sound. The air seemed to be vibrated by something.
Three black, matte helicopters appeared at the end of the road. At the edge of the helicopters' cabins, heavily armed policemen vigilantly scanned the street below. They aimed the black rotary barrels in their hands at the whole street. The miniature Darlin gun barrels could turn a car into a hornet's nest with just one sweep. The rotary barrels with a metallic luster were still so gloomy and cold under the noon sun.
"Police." Shi Qinghai's eyes suddenly became very calm. He stared at the horrible existence that suddenly appeared above the street. Under such powerful firepower, he was too lazy to make any evasive movements.
