Chapter 78 Here it comes!
Guan Ye and Gu Wei were the ones driving the black cars that caught up with the car that Luo Xiaolei was in.
Their expressions were calm and, unlike the maniac man driving the taxi, there was no trace of an adrenaline rush in their eyes. Obviously, they didn’t get wrapped up in this supposedly thrilling race and the sole reason was because Luo Xiaolei was also inside that car; the second most important person that they needed to protect at all costs.
If Luo Xiaolei wasn’t in tangled up in this situation, they would have already captured Mr. Wang a while ago in the most reckless, savage manner as they were trained to do when dealing with their enemies. This was the first time they were doing a job with utmost care because they knew what was at stake. They wouldn’t even consider doing anything risky for fear that Luo Xiaolei might get hurt.
Just thinking about how their boss, who was currently following them in another car, and how frozen cold he probably was at that moment, made them all turn unbelievably serious. Any mistake would be unforgivable.
They had chosen the safest way to stop the car by using the Grappler* technique but the problem was that in the next moments after they shot out the net, someone needed to enter the taxi to stop the man before he realized that his plan might have failed, in case he decided to shoot Luo Xiaolei with his gun.
They all knew that Wang’s only aim now was to kill her, after all, and that could happen within just seconds and possibly even before they were able to stop the car.
What they needed was a flawless but also a near-impossible plan. How could someone even enter a car when it was going at that crazy speed? Even Gu Wei, the so called captain, wasn’t confident and unfortunately, time was slowly running out. The unfinished bridge just ahead of them was getting closer and if the car ended up going past the end of the bridge, it wouldn’t fall into the water but into a rocky part of the river below. The chances of survival after that point was probably zero.
The situation looked hopeless, obviously, unless Superman somehow appeared out of nowhere and then enter the taxi by some miracle.
"Captain, we’re about to reach the end of the bridge. What are we going to do?!" one of the men with Gu Wei said, extremely anxious. These men were very well trained and normally, they wouldn’t even get anxious when faced with dangerous and deadly fights. They were all very much used to all kinds of dangerous situations, but this situation was different because they knew they couldn’t do much but wait and see what their captain decided to do. All the while, they also thought about what would happen and what their big boss might do if this is ended up turning into a disaster.
For many years that they have served him, they never dealt with something like this and the reason was simple; it was because Yu Chen didn’t have any family - except for his grandfather, of course, who was also very heavily guarded - or close acquaintances that his enemies could use against him like this.
So his men were used with protecting only him. They were caught off guard at this unexpected turn of events.
"Don’t be too nervous, idiot. Our big boss’ men shouldn’t falter like that." Gu Wei smirked but his eyes remained serious.
"But cap, how are we going to enter that car before we stop it? Even if you call that so called legendary knight to come over, I don’t think even he could manage to jump inside!"
"Haha. Are you an idiot? Well, he is indeed superhuman, but that man is now a president. He’s not someone for us to just casually call for help and he’s no superman to fly over here in an instant."
"Then, what are we gonna do? You didn’t even give us a word about what you are planning to do. Are we just going to follow like this?"
"It’s because i’m not the one who was in charge of this."
"Eh? What?"
"It’s the big boss himself who’s giving instruction."
"R-really?!" The man seemed to calmed down as soon as he heard Gu Wei. "Could it be that there was a sniper in that car infront? But Wang’s cwindows are bulletproof so we can’t even try firing at it. He’ll shoot the Miss before we get through that glass."
"Well, that’s why just firing at it is out of the question. But don’t worry you idiot, our boss has his own super knights too. Though I admit they’re not on par with that person, they are definitely getting closer to him and what’s even better is that there are two of them!"
"Wait... could it be that... they’re here?!!"
As this man’s eyes circled, Gu Wei’s eyes beamed in excitement as another black car swiftly overtook them was now in front of their car.
"Now what are those two gonna do? Ugh! I’m intrigued. Damn, someone take over the wheel, I need to document this."
"Sorry, cap, you’re the only one here who has mad, crazy, driving skills."
"Sigh... never mind!"
All eyes then stared at the black car in front of them. It appeared as though this had captured Wang’s attention by trying to focus his gaze inside it to see who the driver could be and as expected, Wang became distracted by it. Well, being the racer that he was, he wasn’t be able to ignore the fact that someone who was ten times better than him just appeared out of nowhere.
A second later, they saw another car approaching the rear. Seeing it, Gu Wei whistled. Here it comes!!
At this point though, everybody could now see the end of the bridge getting closer and closer and time boiled down to seconds before the impending disaster.
The car at the back then shot out a large yellow net and it quickly got wrapped around the back tyre of the taxi, preventing it from turning. As the tyre locked up, the tether that connected the net to the front of the black car, which shot the net, forced the taxi’s speed to slow down.
At that same moment that the net was released, before the taxi speed was slowed down, the back window of the black car in front of the taxi, shattered. At the same time, the front window of the taxi seemed to have taken a few bullets. Because the bulletproof windows were thick, they didn’t break at the first round of gunfire, but did create a weak point, and that delay was enough for Wang to pick up his gun.
But before he could raise his hand and point it to Luo Xiaolei, a dark shadow seemed to have flown from the car in front, forcing his way through the taxi’s windscreen, shattering it to pieces, and slid into the taxi like he was black spider man.

*Police Bumper’s Grappler – is a device that mounts to the front of police pursuit cars and stops a car chase right in its tracks, safely and securely. It shoots out a net that grabs onto the target’s rear wheel, wraps around it and completely drags the axle to a stop while destroying the tire.
