302: Chapter 303: Landmine!

(Five Updates) 302: Chapter 303: Landmine!

(Five Updates) The three of them had just left the KTV and got directly into the car.

Jiang Weiwei drove with Tang Zhong and Shi Xiaoxiao, speeding all the way until they reached a distant place before stopping.

They arrived at the seaside.

Only then did Jiang Weiwei stop the car.

“That was close, that Hau guy is definitely not a good character!” Jiang Weiwei said, “We’ve come so far now, they probably won’t be able to catch up!”

“Thank goodness, that was a narrow escape.

The owner of the Blue Light KTV showed up just in time.

If it hadn’t been for him, who knows what might have happened?

Someone would have definitely died!” Shi Xiaoxiao panted.

“Indeed, someone would have died!” Tang Zhong said with a smile.

If that person had arrived even a little later, he would have certainly slaughtered Hao and his crew.

“Luckily, we escaped!” said Jiang Weiwei, looking at Tang Zhong, “How about this, I’ll take you home now, and I’ll go home too.

It’s not safe to wander around outside.

If we run into that Jiangbei Hao guy, it won’t be good.

They left with us, and I drove so fast just because I was afraid they’d catch up.

They probably didn’t, unless there was an unexpected turn!”

“Let’s not go home just yet…

but going home is okay too!” Tang Zhong nodded.

Their time together hadn’t been long, but Tang Zhong felt very comfortable, and the restlessness inside hadn’t surged up in a while.

Being next to Jiang Weiwei always gave him a pleasant feeling.

And this feeling was something Tang Zhong couldn’t quite describe, but it was indeed very satisfying.

It was getting late, better to head home.

“I live in Shallow Bay community.

Please take me back there!” Tang Zhong said.

“Shallow Bay community?

Is that the one from the TV, about to be demolished because Jianghai City is undergoing a big overhaul and that whole urban area is going to be torn down?” Shi Xiaoxiao, sitting in the back, spoke up.

“Demolition?” Tang Zhong looked puzzled.

Aunt Xin hadn’t mentioned this to him.

“You didn’t know?

It’s normal if you haven’t seen it; the news was just broadcast today by Jianghai TV!” Shi Xiaoxiao said.

“I see, no worries then!” said Tang Zhong.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you home now.

I don’t know where your house is, so you guide me!” Jiang Weiwei said.

“Sure!” Tang Zhong agreed with a nod.

But no sooner had he spoken, he sensed something amiss and immediately turned his head to look around.

In that moment, he had unexpectedly felt a sense of murderous intent.

It was a feeling only high-level assassins exuded.

It seemed someone was about to die, but who could have crossed paths with such an assassin?

The murderous aura was nearby; as long as it didn’t concern them, it would be fine.

“Just go straight ahead!” Tang Zhong instructed.

They needed to leave this place at once.

Jiang Weiwei started the car.

What he didn’t know was that at that moment, in the grass beside the road by the seaside, a person dressed in black with a pair of binoculars watched Tang Zhong and his companions drive away.

Then, he pulled out a photograph, and upon looking, one would realize the person in it was none other than Jiang Weiwei.

“Target confirmed, prepare to move!”

He immediately slung the sniper rifle over his shoulder and followed on a motorcycle, though his speed was much faster than Jiang Weiwei and her companions.

To get to the Shallow Bay community, they had to take a remote path.

Here, there were only low-rise buildings, mostly shops open only during the day.

Come night, these shops would close their doors.

With the delay from earlier, it had already gotten dark, and except for the streetlights, there were no other sources of light along the road.

“Tang Zhong, do you really live here?

Why does it feel so eerie?” Jiang Weiwei asked.

Tang Zhong knew the way; this was indeed the place.

However, Jiang Weiwei had taken a wrong turn.

Otherwise, they would have already arrived.

There were usually few people around, especially at night when even fewer were out.

But the community was just ahead.

A little further along this road, and they would be there.

“Just follow this road!” Tang Zhong pointed ahead.

Jiang Weiwei looked at the pitch-black scene in front of them, and if it hadn’t been for Tang Zhong in the car, she would have preferred not to take this route.

“Okay, then!”

At this point, Jiang Weiwei had slowed down the car considerably, fearing the unfamiliarity might bring some complication.

Suddenly, Tang Zhong sensed something wrong.

He detected a restless scent in the air, and it was growing increasingly unsettling.

Here, it felt as if he had entered a primeval forest, and the same murderous intent he had felt by the seaside was nearby.

Could it be…

Suddenly, the BMW car made a clanging noise and jolted.

All three people inside the car were shaken.

“Ah!” Jiang Weiwei screamed.

Suddenly, the car came to a halt, as if the tires had run over something.

“What kind of road is this?” Jiang Weiwei murmured to herself.

She had been so shaken by the jolt that she almost lost her soul and forced herself to calm down.

She realized the car had stalled.

“Huh, why did the car stall?” Jiang Weiwei wondered, then continued trying to start the car with the electronic ignition.

But at this moment, Tang Zhong’s face changed, and he shouted, “Don’t move!”

“Ah!” Jiang Weiwei froze, then looked at Tang Zhong and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Without a word, Tang Zhong got out of the car, bent down to check beneath the tires, and his expression turned ugly.

He saw that a tire had run over a dark device—nothing less than a small man-made landmine.

That is to say, their car was now on top of a landmine.

Fortunately, the vehicle had stopped.

If they had moved even a fraction of an inch earlier, by now they might have been blown to pieces.

Recalling the killer aura she had sensed before, it seemed someone was after them.

“What happened?” Jiang Weiwei asked Tang Zhong from inside the car.

She didn’t know about the landmine, and Tang Zhong wasn’t about to tell her.

“Nothing!” Tang Zhong replied.

If Jiang Weiwei and the others knew there was a landmine, they would certainly panic.

“Don’t move the car right now.

When I tell you to move, you move!” Tang Zhong ordered.

He wasn’t fazed by the small landmine; it was a mercury ball landmine with a certain delay time, meaning that if you stepped on it and then released it, it wouldn’t explode immediately.

Instead, a small bead would be ejected from the mine, which was the actual bomb that would react with the air and cause an explosion.

The car couldn’t explode now, as an explosion in this remote wilderness would leave them nowhere to go.

“Okay!” Jiang Weiwei complied.

Tang Zhong watched the landmine and ordered, “Ignite!”

Jiang Weiwei ignited the engine.

“Clutch in, speed to ten.

When I say accelerate, you just slam on the gas!” Tang Zhong directed.

He was staring intently at the mercury ball in the landmine, already spotting the small bead.

Jiang Weiwei was taken aback.

Driving was simple enough, but this was turning out to be complicated.

Nevertheless, she followed the instructions.

She pressed the clutch and began to accelerate; the BMW started moving, slowly advancing forward as Tang Zhong listened to the speed.

He had a standard in mind and, feeling that the car had reached the speed of ten, he immediately shouted, “Accelerate!”

Without a word, Jiang Weiwei floored the gas pedal, and the BMW surged forward at high speed.

At that moment, the landmine, which had been under the tire, lost control and sprang out, visible to the naked eye.

Tang Zhong had been watching the mercury ball all along.

As soon as he saw the ball emerge, he kicked it with his foot.

The force and angle were just right.

The ball was kicked straight onto the mercury ball.

The mercury ball flew off in another direction, ending up in some dry grass.

Suddenly, an intense explosion echoed through the air, flames erupted, and the dry grass was set ablaze.

The fire illuminated everything.

“Success!” Tang Zhong muttered to himself.

At this time, just as Jiang Weiwei accelerated and was about to get out of the car to ask Tang Zhong what had just happened, she saw the sudden blaze and her face turned pale.

An explosion…

Had she just walked the path of death?

She stared at Tang Zhong, disbelieving.

While at that moment, Tang Zhong didn’t even look at the explosion but stared in a certain direction and shouted, “Come out, I know where you are!”
