Chapter 339 - 337: Ambushed on the Road
The reason the three dared to chase Chen Tianlong was because they were carrying heavy weapons.
Two machine guns and two pistols should be more than enough to deal with one Chen Tianlong.
After driving for about ten minutes, they reached a deserted stretch of highway. At this moment, Chen Tianlong inadvertently noticed a red Ferrari coming up behind them.
At first, he didn’t think much of it, feeling that a Ferrari on the highway was quite normal.
The next moment, he changed his mind because he saw someone inside holding a dark object. His professional alertness told him it was a weapon.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there’s something going on behind us. Please fasten your seat belts. If there’s any sudden movement, keep your body down and try not to lift your head, got it?"
Chen Tianlong said to the three while focusing on driving.
Wu Mengting, sitting in the front passenger seat, was startled. Seeing Chen Tianlong’s serious expression, she realized something big was happening and hurriedly looked back.
She saw a car behind them, and at that moment, someone inside the car was leaning out, holding a machine gun ready to fire.
"Ah!"
Wu Mengting was so frightened she couldn’t help but scream. The other two girls quickly turned to look when Wu Mengting reacted.
"Ratatata..."
The sound of machine-gun fire rang out, frightening them into diving to the ground, while Chen Tianlong frowned and shouted, "Do as I just said!"
Without waiting for their response, Chen Tianlong floored the accelerator, and the Audi began to speed up on the highway.
The red Ferrari behind them obviously noticed this, and He Xiaobao told his shooting subordinate, "Hold your fire for now. We’ll speed up to catch up later."
"Yes, by the way, He, should we take out those women in the car too?" His subordinate hesitated, reluctant to part with them since the three women were extraordinary beauties.
"Damn it, you’re thinking of keeping them? Young Master Fang instructed us not to leave a single trace. Do you want the cops figuring out it was us?"
He Xiaobao glared at him. Honestly, when he heard his boss, Fang Xiaoli, giving these orders, he felt quite upset too. If it were up to him, he would be delighted to kill the guy and capture the three women.
After all, with three beauties, Fang Xiaoli wouldn’t hog them all and would at least leave one for him as a reward, which was an exciting thought.
But now, he had to get rid of them all, which was genuinely regrettable.
Shaking his head, He Xiaobao jammed the accelerator, and the Ferrari surged forward like a rocket.
However, for some reason, the Audi ahead always managed to keep its distance.
By right, his Ferrari should slowly catch up, but in reality, there was always a hundred-meter gap, which was frustrating.
Chen Tianlong kept the pedal to the metal and took the shortest path on the highway, barely managing to widen the gap.
With no obvious curves, shaking off the car behind completely was proving difficult.
Thinking quickly, Chen Tianlong’s expression turned grim, and he developed a murderous intent.
If no one offends me, I won’t offend them; if they do, I’ll kill them.
"Mengting, if I kill today to save you, does that make me a hero or a villain in your eyes?" Chen Tianlong calmly asked the terrified Wu Mengting in the passenger seat as he drove.
The car was quiet. There was no gunfire now, so not only Wu Mengting but also Liu Ting and Ouyang Meijia heard him.
They all fell silent, and Wu Mengting didn’t answer Chen Tianlong’s question.
Feeling tense, Wu Mengting kept swallowing nervously, her mind in chaos.
She disliked Chen Tianlong’s violent ways, but in this situation, if they didn’t fight back, they might die.
"Chen Tianlong, if you kill them, won’t you have nightmares?"
Wu Mengting wasn’t worried about him killing but feared he’d have mental scars.
She’d read that every killer carries a story and a hurdle in their heart for every person they kill.
But Wu Mengting didn’t know that Chen Tianlong wasn’t ordinary; he was a professional assassin.
"If I don’t kill them and let them harm you, that’s when I’ll have nightmares!"
The gist of Chen Tianlong’s words was understood by the three girls.
"Well... then be careful!"
Wu Mengting couldn’t bring herself to say the word "kill" directly, so she gently reminded Chen Tianlong to be careful.
After receiving the directive, Chen Tianlong smirked coldly at the rearview mirror. He had encountered situations like this many times. As an assassin, he was accustomed to such assassination tasks, especially killing from car to car.
Five minutes later, Chen Tianlong suddenly decelerated and, at the same time, had the three girls duck to avoid getting hit in the ensuing attack.
When He Xiaobao noticed the Audi slowing down, he frowned, raised his right hand, and signaled the two machine gunners to prepare. They leaned out from the car doors, ready to fire at the car ahead.
But since they were still fifty meters away, without He Xiaobao’s command, they wouldn’t shoot, as that could drive their target to flee desperately.
Thirty meters, twenty meters, ten meters, closer, closer!
"Shoot them dead for me!"
Fang Xiaoli’s words barely caught the air when the two machine gunners prepared to fire.
Except.
"Screech!"
A sudden brake squealed. Chen Tianlong had planned everything well, and the three girls had fastened their seat belts and were ready for a fast stop.
So Chen Tianlong’s sudden move didn’t surprise them much, but it startled He Xiaobao.
One sharp brake, one acceleration chase, originally Chen Tianlong was in front, followed by Fang Xiaoli. But soon, their positions switched.
The two machine gunners quickly reacted, trying to turn.
But anyone who has been in a car knows that turning swiftly, especially at a window in a speeding car, is impossible.
So Chen Tianlong took advantage of this moment, flinging three silver needles from his hand, hitting the two squarely on their foreheads.
The next moment, two bodies tumbled out of the car, leaving a bloody mess on the ground.
The scene was gruesome. If the three girls saw it, they’d surely have nightmares, but luckily they had already ducked, saving them a scare.
"What the hell!"
He Xiaobao was stunned by this scene in the rearview mirror.
Who on earth was this guy to be so formidable, that without noticing, two of his men had already perished?
Now it was just the two of them, and although they had pistols, the threat to their target was much reduced.
"Damn it, let’s fight to the death."
