Breaking Through the Clouds - Chapter 12

 Translated by 231yolu :)

Many people said that only idiots would buy a Phaeton, but the comfort and protection of a luxury car were indeed good. At least at this moment, the group of police officers walking around and shouting outside could not be heard at all. The entire car seemed to have sunk into deep, dark water. Even the almost inaudible heartbeat was pressed into the frozen air by the water pressure.

"… You will not find him again," Jiang Ting finally said.

Yan Xuan had achieved a temporary victory. He politely made a "please advise" gesture and asked, "Why?"

Jiang Ting did not answer and asked, "Why didn't you catch up to him just now?"

"F * ck, that bastard ran faster than a rabbit. I chased him all the way to Sanmao Street and was almost sent flying by a car …"

"What car?"

Yan Xuan was stunned. "I didn't see it clearly. I think it was an SUV, black or dark gray, I think."

"How fast was it?"

"… About sixty to seventy kilometers. Why?"

"Go and check. That car belongs to an accomplice."

"How do you know it's an accomplice?!"

Jiang Ting showed a hint of impatience under Yan Xuan's suspicious gaze, but he still answered, "I passed by Sanmao Street on my way here. It's a one-way street, and both sides of the street are filled with electric bikes and tricycles. Only people who are familiar with the road would drive so fast, but people who are familiar with the road would not drive a big car into such a crowded alley, not to mention that it just happened to block you. Send someone to the traffic control office immediately and get the surveillance video of the incident. If I'm not wrong, this SUV should be a fake car. "

"…" Yan Xuan rolled down the window. "Little Ma!"

"Hey!"

"I was just telling you about the car that we hit when we were chasing the suspect. Go and check the license plate. Hurry up!"

Ma Xiang placed two fingers on his temples and waved coolly. "Roger that!"

Jiang Ting shook his head in the back seat. His movement was very light.

"What's wrong with you now?" Yan Xuan glanced over sensitively. "Are you not full yet? Should I buy you another ham sausage? "

Jiang Ting: "…?"

Yan Xuan was a little naughty and did not explain. "Why did you shake your head just now?"

Jiang Ting said, "I told you that you would not find him again."

"… What do you mean?"

Jiang Ting did not answer.

"Didn't you say that the SUV was an accomplice?"

Yan Xuan raised his sharp eyebrows and looked at Jiang Ting suspiciously. Jiang Ting did not explain much under such a gaze. From his expression, he probably sighed, but it was very soft and almost inaudible.

He said, "It's because it's an SUV."

An hour later, on the inter-provincial highway.

The two-hundred-meter-long asphalt road was cordoned off. Red and blue police lights flashed, walkie-talkies were noisy, and the flashing lights of technical investigators were everywhere.

Yan Xuan parked the car in the isolation zone outside the cordoned off area. He turned around and said seriously, "Who said that we would never find him again? The facts have proven that you are wrong. "

Jiang Ting: "…"

Yan Xuan pointed ahead. "The suspect is still alive, but his existence has changed."

The ten-meter-long road was covered with flesh, bones, hair, and mangled internal organs. The corpses that had been run over by the passing cars had been reduced to a bloody pulp. The scene was too horrible to look at. Other than half a head that was difficult to identify, not even a complete long bone could be found.

Jiang Ting did not make a sound under Yan Xuan's confident gaze. Based on his personality, he probably could not be bothered to have such a conversation. So he opened the door and walked out.

"Wah — Blergh!"
