Chapter 830: Chapter 830 If one plan fails, still another plan

The leader of Haiyan Gang felt increasingly the need to ensure his own safety. He glanced at Gu Fan, who in turn caught the unusual look in the leader’s eyes and seemed to guess what the other was thinking.

Gu Fan said with a faint smile, "You must be thinking, if you betray us, you would be safe."

Upon hearing this, the leader of Haiyan Gang’s expression became slightly awkward, yet he did not deny it.

Su Hui immediately tensed up, while the other members of the Haiyan Gang also got ready, just waiting for the boss’s command.

Gu Fan added, "Now that the Black Night Gang is here, and the Lone Wolf Gang has also arrived, even if you kill us, you would have to choose one of their sides to join, because these two gangs are going to be at each other’s throats next. Do you understand what I mean?"

The leader of Haiyan Gang understood. It wasn’t as simple as just betraying Gu Fan and his group to secure his own safety and be spared. So the leader of Haiyan Gang signaled his subordinates with a look to lower their weapons and not to make things difficult for Gu Fan and Su Hui.

"Don’t worry, now is not the time to give up," Gu Fan said, while looking at a small grove of trees about a hundred and fifty meters away. He thought it better to make a run for it rather than sit here waiting for death.

But the leader of Haiyan Gang objected, "No, if we rush out, we’ll lose our cover and be completely exposed to the enemy’s line of sight. I’m afraid we wouldn’t make it to the other side before being riddled with bullets."

"If we go by my plan, there’s a good chance of success." Having said that, Gu Fan began arranging tasks.

The situation was critical, with the Black Night Gang in front and the Lone Wolf Gang behind, closing in step by step. If things continued this way, Gu Fan and his group trapped in the middle would really be finished.

Just when Helen thought Gu Fan had no plan left, two of the trucks parked haphazardly on the road started up, leaving the highway and heading straight for the trees on the side.

Helen guessed Gu Fan’s intent and laughed coldly, "Thinking of just leaving like that? Once the trucks leave the smooth highway, if they hit an uneven spot, they’ll get stuck, and running won’t be an option."

Qian Ye was equally dismissive, "Gu Fan, by driving off two trucks, you’re essentially telling us where the space-time door is located. You’re too naive."

At this moment, the two trucks moved side by side, but very slowly, because they had to protect Gu Fan and the others between them.

The Black Night Gang and Lone Wolf Gang quickened their pace to follow, keeping an eye on the trucks’ movements. They all thought Gu Fan and his team were foolish. On the highway, the randomly parked vehicles could somewhat serve as a good defense. Now, leaving the highway, they only had two trucks to protect them from either side.

This area was full of potholes. If the trucks got stuck, they would be trapped with no protection. Qian Ye and Helen anticipated that Gu Fan and his group would have no chance of reaching the copse.

However, Gu Fan’s plan was just getting started. The two trucks suddenly sped up, and the Black Night Gang and Lone Wolf Gang following them reacted a beat too slow, only to see the trucks ahead drive away.

Before, the Black Night Gang and Lone Wolf Gang were separated by the trucks, so they couldn’t see each other. Now that the trucks had suddenly accelerated and moved away from them, the space in the middle was vacated. This resulted in the Black Night Gang and Lone Wolf Gang facing each other directly, with no buffer in between.

This was Gu Fan’s plan, while charging towards the grove, he did everything possible to make the Black Night Gang and the Lone Wolf Gang run into each other, letting them wear each other down.

The current situation was that both the Black Night Gang and the Lone Wolf Gang had their guns pointed at each other, both feeling anxious and daring not to fire the first shot, they didn’t know what to do, and didn’t have time to pay attention to Gu Fan and Su Hui, who were already running fast towards the small grove.

"No way, that cunning?" Helen was surprised, she couldn’t help but admire Gu Fan for being able to come up with such a clever way to escape under such circumstances.

Qian Ye watched the scene and couldn’t help but admire as well. It was originally a disadvantageous situation, being sandwiched from both sides, but it was cleverly turned around. This Gu Fan was really impressive, no wonder his reincarnation, Lin Xi, would take an interest in him.

At that moment, both trucks were stuck in a pit and couldn’t move forward, but it was enough for Gu Fan, Su Hui, and the Haiyan Gang, they sprinted towards the grove without any pursuit.

Seeing Gu Fan and the others running into the grove, Helen couldn’t hide her smugness, "Well, congratulations Gu Fan on your successful escape, but don’t be happy too soon, I still have other programs waiting for you."

"Alright, retreat!" With Helen’s command, the subordinates of the Lone Wolf Gang turned and left immediately, with no intention of lingering in battle.

The Black Night Gang glanced at each other, feeling somewhat at a loss, but they remained on high alert, still tightly gripping their guns.

Watching this scene, Qian Ye let out a sigh of relief. None had fallen for Gu Fan’s trick, no one had engaged in mutual slaughter; this was a great relief. The chaos in the warehouse before had given Gu Fan the chance to escape.

However, what followed was a bit tricky, whether the Black Night Gang should pursue Gu Fan and the others or not; not pursuing seemed wrong, what if Gu Fan got away? And if they did pursue, the Lone Wolf Gang might just be waiting for the chance to strike from behind like a mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

After considering it, Qian Ye felt that the primary task was still to kill Gu Fan, so he ordered the men of the Black Night Gang to charge towards the grove and even dispatched more hands, encircling the grove.

Seeing the Black Night Gang’s determination to pursue to the end, Helen was a bit surprised, "Qiao Ya, you said that Lin Xi is Gu Fan’s girlfriend, and they are deeply in love, but looking at the situation now, it seems that Lin Xi is really harsh on Gu Fan, as if she’s determined to pursue him to the death."

Qiao Ya was also puzzled, even if their relationship had soured, at most they would quarrel and then break up; it was unimaginable for it to escalate to a life-or-death struggle.

Dong Ni appeared indifferent, "No matter how many people go in, in the end, the winner will be me. Gu Fan still doesn’t know what we have arranged to welcome him, huh?"

"If Gu Fan really has such tough luck and manages to escape again, then I can only say the Destiny Stone is real," Helen said, her eyes showing interest, before adding, "The immediate priority is to find the space-time door..." She stopped mid-sentence, as her complexion changed, looking around at the trucks parked haphazardly on the road.

"What’s wrong, Helen?" Qiao Ya saw Helen’s panicked expression; perhaps something had happened.

Helen said just one thing, "Gu Fan just left the truck, left the space-time door, and ran into the small grove, where is David? Could it be that he has been shot, or is he not here at all?"

"Yes, could it be that from the beginning..." Qiao Ya had also realized the critical issue, feeling a sudden sinking feeling in his heart.
