Volume 1: The Beginning of the Calamity, Chapter 19: Escape
Vans and taxis engage in fierce chases on the highway.
"Damn, how did they catch up?!" shouted day and night, driving to relatively backward areas, where the terrain might help them escape.
"The question is why do they honk the horn?!" Amaterasu covered his ears, "Think we didn't run fast enough?!"
Six people had already gathered in the van, and the only ones left to be captured were Yan Huang, Kai and the captain.
Changkong had a rough grasp of the location of the remaining three, and at the moment he was concentrating on planning the route, and he was going to escape and pick up people...... However, for day and night, he is the best artificial navigator, and after reporting a few required terrain day and night, he will move forward completely according to the command of the sky. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that he was being chased, he even wanted to get out of the car and change positions with Changkong and hand over the steering wheel directly to him.
Except for the day and night when they were in the state of racing, the other people did not have a nervous nerve, and there was talk and laughter behind the car, full of happy air. Kage feeds the new strawberry-flavored cookies they just bought to Tami in the front seat, and listens to Amaterasu and Natsu tell each other about their experiences. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
"I'm so nervous, those two people will be found out sooner or later after they're knocked unconscious, and then we'll be ......exposed too," Amaterasu recounted what happened to them underground, "and then I had an idea, didn't there be a staircase for us to hide from when we came down? β
"Woo!" said Shadow, munching on the cake in a faint realization.
These people don't have a sense of crisis? Changkong looked in the rearview mirror, calculated the distance between the taxi and them, and blinked his eyes.
There is no sense of crisis, this is the meaning of entrusting their lives to him and the two drivers day and night, right? The four of them have survived the crisis in pairs, and the crisis at this moment will naturally be solved by the combination of day and night with him.
Thinking about it like this, Changkong was completely relieved in his heart, Kai and the captain were in a group, what should they do? This poor boy is afraid that he will be left behind again.
"Turn right at the traffic light ahead and go straight. "Changkong try to pronounce the words clearly, so as not to listen to the fork day and night," and then go straight ahead, and then completely get out of the city behind, and never see a traffic light again. β
The other party's driver seems to be unreliable, has no driving experience, and the terrible thing is that he chased very tightly, and it is estimated that the accelerator pedal has stepped on the bottom, and there is no worry at all. If you slow down a little during the day and night, the driver will definitely not be able to react and cause a rear-end accident. If you slow down, something will happen, is that a treadmill? Changkong didn't know what he was thinking. Amaterasu, who was sitting in the back, seemed to be sleepy, so he simply closed his eyes and took a nap, wasn't he nervous about the situation in front of him?
Amaterasu chooses to empty his mind. Being able to rest for a while is a while, and he is physically and mentally exhausted by staying up all night for several days and fighting not long ago, not to mention that he can't help much now, and it is also a rational judgment to use time reasonably. He finally followed the local customs and learned to think from a rational point of view. But day and night have already driven to the countryside, and the terrain of Qianmo traffic makes the car sway. Presumably I won't sleep very well.
"Ah, yes, yes. Xia Ling suddenly remembered something, and said to Amaterasu, "What we found there, they haven't told you day and night, right? β
Ahh The physical body can no longer rest steadily, and even the spirit is ......
Yan Wenjin came to the archives.
Can't six big men in full gear even surround two weak women with their bare hands? He turned on the light in the archive and put on his gloves.
It doesn't matter, I don't expect this waste to do things well. He carefully pulled out two books and examined the traces on the surface.
"Your Excellency. The new entourage behind him held his phone, "The new message is a full stop." β
"It's okay. Then he'll figure out how. β
The list for 2030 has been flipped, and it seems that the fact that the myth is a spy has been exposed. But it doesn't matter, the situation is still under his control.
"And this oneβ" He carefully examined the surface under the light, and found no traces, only dust accumulated over the years.
"Haha, Bud, you haven't been exposed. It's really gratifying. "Then they won't win." It seems that the small organization is all called by each other's names, and Bard is called ...... It's called ......"
"It's called...... Isn't it here?"
After a while, he looked at the clock on the wall and the map in his hand, deduced the location of Yan Huang, and then set off to go, he had something to say to this guy.
Day and night they are still being pursued by Saint-De-Carlo.
The Night King's mind suddenly faltered and withdrew from his instinctive state, he gasped sharply, his steps became slower and slower, and the three Xuanwu opened up the distance from him.
The captain and Kai had nothing to gain, wandering the streets, waiting for their accomplices to come and pick them up.
Yan Huang finally made his way to his mission site, a church-like dome, but it had been emptied.
Words are here.
It's empty...... Yan Huang, who got nothing, was about to leave, but something unexpected happened. A large number of soldiers poured into the gates on all sides, armed with spears and shields, in a neat formation. Blocking all retreats in an instant, Yan Wen Jin walked out of the darkness upstairs, stood on a high place, and looked down at Yan Huang who was about to retreat.
"So, let's talk. β
"What are you talking about?" Yan Huang seemed to realize what he was going to talk about, and immediately changed the topic, "What age is it, and the army still uses spears and shields." What about the revival of ancient art?"
"I like it. Yan Wen replied succinctly, "I'm just here to take care of you today." You've been giving you all the news lately, and you've been in less contact with us, so I'm wondering - have you forgotten who you are?"
"You're questioning my loyalty?"
"Well, but you should know that another spy will tell us what you didn't report. Our sources of intelligence won't be cut off, but what about you?"
Words are silent.
"Your contribution is not as high as that of the other partner! This is dangerous, two spies must be active at the same time, if one of them suddenly disappears, then there is no need for him to exist. β
"I understand. β
"Of course I know you understand, it's just a matter of walking around and threatening you. Therefore, we have nothing to lose, only you, who will harm yourself because of unnecessary emotions. If you can still make a judgment, you know what to do. Yan Wenjin turned around and added again, "After all, we have the same surname, I really don't want to embarrass you, so I can do it myself." β
Indeed, he just came to say something, and after saying that, he waved away, and the army at the gate also withdrew neatly and quickly. They appear as quickly as they disappear, and they can always catch people off guard.
"......" Yan walked out of the gloomy building in a sullen manner, and there were cars coming and going outside, and there was no figure of the gang just now.
"I'm scared to death, brothers, come and pick me up,!!" he shouted hysterically, inwardly.
The paths in the countryside are always so quiet, the sun is warm, and the high piles of soil are the roads, and the fields are divided by these roads, and the crops on the moistened soil are the crops that the country people rely on for their livelihood. Farmhouses are scattered all over the place, and old swarthy men with straw hats and hoes are talking and laughing. The new president finally remembered the poor people, and the asphalt roads began to stretch towards them. In about half a year, they will be able to connect all kinds of cars and trucks here, and then connect to wires and wires, and the beautiful modern life will open up to them.
Someone who didn't know what to do came, the van bumped along the fragile dirt road with the noise of the city. This road is just a bicycle path set up by farmers to send their children to school, and it does not meet the conditions for driving cars, so the driver is treating his car as an off-road vehicle...... Hey?
The car lane next door is usually as quiet as an abandonment, but there are cars driving there at the moment.
For the first time, Saint-Carlo in the car felt that this was not enough to accomplish things, and the driver who had more than enough to defeat was slightly useful, because day and night they had chosen a difficult path. When the driver saw this, he immediately told him about the situation and his thoughts: "They have taken a bumpy road, perhaps so that we cannot follow, to be honest, I really won't drive such a road...... But ah, but, this is a long road, they don't live in the Empire, they don't know the latest news, the road is being built here, it's a short road, and it can be opened!"
"You mean we can go around in front of them from this newly-built shortcut?"
"Yes, it's their lack of intelligence, they're clever and they're being mistaken by their cleverness!" the taxi driver gloated. If Yanwen was present at this time, he would definitely be reprimanded for being arrogant, ignorant, and not able to speak with his brains, which would make people angry when he looked at him. Although he didn't say anything wrong.
"You're going to come in handy. Saint-Decarlo was relieved from the bottom of his heart, "Then go and stop them, and I will reward you." β
As soon as Saint Decaro finished speaking, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately prepared to drive the thunderbolt to protect himself. Sure enough, the taxi sped up suddenly, driving faster than the cars on the highway. The driver was definitely dying, and the onlookers pointed at him.
They overtook the car. "We're going to be blocked, so what's the use of this terrain?"
The terrain they traveled was similar to the letter 'D', and they suffered from the terrain in the curves, while St. Decaro was unobstructed in a straight line.
"Alright. Holding the steering wheel with his left hand, he turned to the person behind him and said, "What I said next is life-threatening, but you must do it." Call Amaterasu. β
"I'm awake. Amaterasu opened his eyes, and his eyes were bloodshot red. After a bumpy ride, he was really uncomfortable resting.
"From now on, you can't let your skin come into contact with the vehicle, no matter whatβhair doesn't count as skin. Can you do it?"
The people in the back seat sat up straight, put their hands together, and tucked them into their sleeves. Asumasu flipped up his collar and put his hands in his pants pockets, trying to put his situation in order.
"It's going to be reversed. β
Day and Night clasped his hands together and slammed the steering wheel, and the principle of time flowed from the gear he was wearing to the body, and the invisible force wrapped the car, and the car retreated at the speed it had traveled before, and in the eyes of passers-by, like the group of peasants, they all looked stunned. Come to think of it, the driver's technique of driving in reverse so smoothly will be unforgettable.
For example, in a formula racing championship, you see one of the cars in an illegal modification with the tail facing forward, or in a track and field competition, the competitors are running backwards at a speed that is not inferior to everyone else. No matter how you think about it, it can't be normal. Wonderful sensations stimulate their nerves, and they have to be constantly aware of their contact with the car.
The van turned smoothly, the rear of the car seemed to have eyes, and it skillfully followed the path to avoid obstacles, but the bumps in the road were known only to those in the car. The speed of the car is getting faster and faster, and the inertia causes them to slide forward, not only to keep their legs from sliding off their seats, but also to resist the dizziness that comes from driving in the opposite direction, which is different from motion sickness.
When the vehicle slid to the edge of the city, Day and Night quickly reached out and slapped the car, and the force acting on the car disappeared, leaving only the inertia of deceleration.
"When I arrived, I got rid of it...... Let's pick it up. Day and night resisted the desire to vomit and pressed his throat and said.
But the people in the car were so uncomfortable that they couldn't answer.
