Chapter 528: The Mastermind Of Equinox Flower Was Caught – 4
Jiang Ningbei’s voice wafted into her ear clearly, “400 meters.”
Fu Zhi had driven Matthew into a corner. He had never expected that the police officers in Myanmar would be even harder to handle than the police officers in Country M!
They even changed the traffic light just to capture him!
As Matthew turned the steering wheel, he took a look at the strawberry slushie that was spilled on the passenger seat and cursed inwardly.
The third intersection was getting closer and closer, and he would get onto the highway after passing the intersection.
At that moment, through the rearview mirror.
Not far away, a black police car was overtaking a car and a truck, and ever the car went, it would cause quite some commotion.
Some of the cars made way for the police car, but some of them took out their phones and began recording the whole scene down.
Then, inside a yellow sports car that was parked at the side of the road, the driver was stunned and he immediately jerked up from the seat when he saw the black police car that whistled by.
“What are you looking at, honey?” A scantily clad woman squinted her eyes and asked, “When will we be arriving at the hotel?”
Zhuang Mo was snapped back to reality by the woman. He looked confusedly at the direction where the black police car had disappeared into and fell into contemplation.
‘How is there any possibility that the police car could reach that kind of speed with those specifications? It doesn’t make sense.’
Not only that, but Zhuang Mo felt that the driving style of the black police car resembled the psychotic driver he met at Mount Qiu Ling the other day.
“Change of plan,” Zhuang Mo patted the woman’s cheek. He pulled a bank card from his pocket and slipped it into the woman’s chest. “Be a good girl and get out of the car. I have something else to do right now, and I will give you a call when I’m free.”
“What?!” The woman shouted, disbelief accenting her voice, “Do you know where we’re right now, and you want me to get out of the car? This is an intersection!”
‘Is he not worried that I might get run by a car?’
Zhuang Mo squinted his eyes. “Are you sure you’re not getting out of the car?”
The woman was stumped, but she was not going to give up just like that. With that thought in her mind, she went nearer to Zhuang Mo and said in a coquettish manner, “Please, honey. It’s so scary here. Please don’t leave me here.”
‘Well, I already gave you a choice, so don’t blame me later.’
Zhuang Mo nodded and replied flatly, “Alright then. Sit tight. It might get a little bumpy”
“Ah? What do you mean? Ahhh!!! Hold on! Hold on! You’re going too fast! Stop the car now!”
—
Another three minutes had passed.
Jiang Ningbei continued to inform Fu Zhi about the location of Matthew. “Matthew will get onto the highway in another 1,500 meters.”
Fu Zhi pressed her lips thin and it seemed as if she was out of her patience.
She looked at the sapphire sports car through the windscreen, and then she saw a yellow sports car was following behind her through the rear mirror.
The people from the International Crime Unit were following closely behind the yellow sports car as they tried their best to keep up with Fu Zhi, their hearts were pumping faster and faster as they learned that Fu Zhi was going to chase up to Matthew.
After all, none of them believe that Fu Zhi could take on Matthew head-on.
—
Plenty of things had happened on Canna Street today.
First, the traffic lights began to act up, then a stream of police cars and sports cars scorched down the street as if they were shooting the movie “Fast and Furious”.
Meanwhile, a hint of excitement rose from the bottom of Matthew’s heart when he saw the incoming police car.
‘Interesting. This is exciting! I didn’t know that they had such a good driver in their team!’
With that thought in mind, Matthew stamped on the gas pedal as he tried to pull himself away from the black police car.
They were only about 100 meters apart right now.
Fu Zhi’s expression was stern. When she noticed what Matthew was trying to do, she let out a smirk and jerked the steering all the way to one side, and stepped on the gas pedal to the end before she entered the corner, causing the engine of the car to roar like a beast.
Just when Matthew was entering the highway, he glanced at the rear mirror, but the black police car was nowhere in sight.
“Useless,” Matthew chided. He thought the driver of the black police car could at least put up some fight, but now it seemed to him that he had overestimated the driver.
He retracted his gaze from the rear mirror and looked ahead. He was about to reach the highway.
A smile broke across the man’s face, and before he could do anything, he felt a strong impact from the right, and he nearly lost control of his car.
He grabbed tightly at the steering wheel and jerked his head to the side. Then, his eyes widened in shock at what he saw.
The black police car was on his right side right now.
‘How is this possible? When did he come?’
Just when Matthew was in confusion, Fu Zhi rolled the window down.
Inside of his vision was an Asian girl with a delicate face.
She was probably wearing a dress and she had a poker face.
Matthew gauged Fu Zhi inwardly.
Even though he did not know where she came from, he was certain that she was no match for him considering how petite she was.
In the next second, seizing the chance while Matthew was immersed in his own thoughts, Fu Zhi pressed harder on the gas pedal and turned left.
“F*ck!”
It was only then Matthew realized what Fu Zhi was doing. He stamped on the brake hard but to no avail. He was going too fast and there was no way he could stop the collision right now.
The strong force thrust Matthew to the front, causing his head to smash into the steering wheel.
The airbag popped out and enveloped Matthew’s head.
The front of the car was dented because of the collision, but the car was still operable due to its high performance.
“D*mn it!” Matthew yelled out loud as his body screamed in pain.
He could feel that his tooth was wriggling as if it was going to fall. He took a deep breath and this was the first time in 30 years since he was born that he was humiliated in this way.
A hurricane of emotions wreaking havoc inside him.
There were no traffic cameras in this area, and the Bureau of Transportation had lost track of both cars and all of their hearts leaped into their throats.
If Fu Zhi really got killed by the mastermind of the “Equinox Flower”, it would leave a bad image on their country.
—
There was dust everywhere in the air.
A light brown silhouette leaped down from the car before the impact.
She pressed a button on the key and the trunk opened up.
From Matthew’s viewing angle, the frail and petite little girl was walking towards him with a fire extinguisher in her hand.
She smashed the fire extinguisher on the corner of the windscreen and the entire windscreen cracked. Then, she aimed at the center of the windscreen and brought the fire extinguisher down in a mighty sweep.
The entire windscreen had shattered.
Before Matthew could get to his gun, she had slammed the bottom of the fire extinguisher hard on his head.
“Duang—”
For a moment, he could not hear anything and he could only see nothing but stars in his eyes.
Before he could come around from the strike, the girl’s gentle voice wafted into his ears.
“May I know where my strawberry slushie is?”
—
At the same time, the traffic light at the intersection of Canna Street finally returned to normal.
The woman shouted at the top of her lungs, and since she wasn’t wearing a seatbelt, she wrapped herself around Zhuang Mo like an octopus.
Zhuang Mo had no other choice but to stop his car at the roadside.
“Let go of me!” Zhuang Mo frowned. He looked ahead, trying to discern the black police car from the stream of vehicles but to no avail.
The black police car was gone.
When the realization hit him, he smacked his hand on the steering wheel hard.
If it were not for him to control himself, he would have already slapped the woman in her cheek.
Suddenly, his phone rang. It was from the Zheng Family.
“Where are you now?”
Zhuang Mo pinched the center of his eyebrows and replied, “Canna Street. I’m chasing after something.”
“Alright. Take your time. I just want to inform you that don’t forget to come to The Glamor behind the Lucky Cloud Pavilion next Friday. We have invited the representatives from the Li Family for a dinner and we could use some of your help.”
—
Meanwhile, the stream of sports cars and police cars.
The captain of the 5th division looked at the watch and said, “It has been more than 10 minutes.”
Then, he sighed and continued, “I don’t think we need to go to the highway anymore, as I’m pretty sure that Matthew would be gone by the time we reach there. As for the little girl, in a more sophisticated way of saying, she probably has already gone to heaven.”
By right, Matthew should be on the highway right now, but since the Bureau of Transport had yet gotten any visual on him, they assumed the girl had already caught up to Matthew.
This could also prove that this little girl had been born into this world before. She had seen the beauty of this world and now it’s time for her to say goodbye.
At the same time, the sheriff made a call to the China International Rescue Committee. After the call was connected, he said, “Erm, there’s this one girl from your country and her name is Fu Zhi. She’s currently pursuing a serial killer known as Matthew. However, we lost sight of her on Canna Street and we worried that she might be in trouble. Can you guys send some help?”
The staff who received the call immediately reported it to the embassy.
Fu Yuan, the ambassador of China, had just returned from his business trip. When he passed by the office and heard the name “Fu Zhi”, he stopped in his tracks.
“Fu Zhi? Which Fu Zhi are you talking about?” He asked the staff, “Does she have the same surname as me?”
The staff nodded, and it was only then Fu Yuan knew Fu Zhao’s daughter, Fu Zhi, had come to Myanmar.
He did not know why Fu Zhao did not tell him about it, but it was none of his business. After all, they would not contact each other. Whenever they talked to each other, either it was during festive seasons, or one of them needed financial help.
“Who’s Matthew and where does he come from?” Fu Yan asked again.
“He’s biracial, half Burmese and half Country M.”
“Oh well, send someone to retrieve Matthew. He’s gonna need it,” Fu Yuan said as he walked towards his office, “By the way, is Mr. Han here? Remind him to get in touch with Fu Zhi. I’m worried that Matthew might sue her for beating him up.”
The staff was confused.
‘Matthew? He will sue Fu Zhi? Has he gone out of his mind?
—
The first group of people that arrived at the intersection between Canna Street and the highway was the 4th division.
Two of them waited at the roadside and kept their distance from the scene. They waited for about three minutes before heading towards the designated location.
They could see a sapphire sports car and a black police car from a distance. Both of the cars had come to a complete stop on the roadside after the collision.
“What’s going on? What are you guys still waiting for? Where’s the girl? Why don’t you guys go and help her?” The captain of the 4th division grabbed the collar of his team member and shouted, “Is this what I teach you all the time?”
“But cap…” The team member stammered, “It’s not that we don’t want to help. It’s just that we don’t know what to do at all!”
The scene before their eyes was too gruesome. Instead of calling it a two-way fight, it was more appropriate to call it a one-sided annihilation. There was even a hole on the ground to show how intense the fight was.
There was this saying which went like, “When a city gate is on fire, disaster is brought to the fish in the moat.”
They were the fishes in the moat, so it went without saying that they were worried that they might get caught up in the fight.
“Useless!” The captain of the 4th division kicked him away.
“If you guys are not going in, I’m going in!” He shouted as he rolled his sleeve up.
At the same time, a weak man’s voice rang out not far away, “Help… Help me to call the police… I’m a murderer, I burned buildings down to ashes… I plead guilty, please take me to jail. Please, please save me…”
