Chapter 89 - Gunfight and Lost Her

The SUV was filled with awkwardness and silence as it travelled quietly.

Li Nanchen pursed his thin lips and stared fixedly at the back of K’s head. Wu Mei leaned against the window tiredly.

The driver tried to turn on the car’s stereo to play some music to alleviate the tension, but K, who was in the passenger seat, turned it off and said, “So noisy.”

Wu Mei closed her eyes and recalled what had happened in the past ten days or so.

From the first time she met Zhong Ling in the Special Agent Camp, to the time she miscalculated and killed Zhong Ling with the gun, to the time Zhong Ling’s body mysteriously disappeared… It was as if there was an invisible web. However, Wu Mei could not figure out what it was. She couldn’t get rid of that cloud of confusion no matter how she tried!

“Don’t think too much. The most important mission right now is to protect me!”

Li Nanchen could sense her emotions. Due to K’s presence, he could only gently squeeze her palm and use a commanding tone to convey his concern.

Wu Mei forced a smile and nodded.

Outside the window, a van drove towards them. A woman with loose curly hair rolled down the window, revealing her side profile.

Wu Mei sat up straight in shock and even stuck her head out to verify. She shouted in a sharp and rapid voice, “Turn around! Go after that car! Hurry up!”

“What’s wrong?”

“I think it’s Zhong Ling! She’s in that van!” Wu Mei wanted to snatch the steering wheel. The driver slammed on the brakes and turned around, chasing after the van at high speed.

As the two cars got closer, the seemingly ordinary van suddenly sped up and shook them off.

Frowning, K took out the pistol he always carried with him and said, “Their cars have been modified. It’s very likely that they have heavy weapons and bullet-proof glass. Be careful!”

Swoosh! Swoosh!

On the two-way street, a few bullets came from the other side and shattered the SUV’s windshield!

“There’s an ambush!”

Wu Mei saw a heavy-duty motorcycle and a van coming from two different directions. All the enemies were wearing helmets and masks!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

They were carrying guns and metal batons as they surrounded the few of them in provocation.

“Are they the accomplices of the people in that van or the people chasing after Li Nanchen?”

“No matter who it is, they are all people who want our lives!” Wu Mei couldn’t be bothered to respond to K’s question and pulled out her gun.

When she stuck her head out slightly, countless bullets were aimed at her and fired. The ordinary glass shattered.

Li Nanchen raised his arm to shield her in his arms. A few pieces of the glass cut him and he bled. When he met Wu Mei’s worried eyes, he smiled and comforted her, “I’m fine.”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The other party consciously attacked the driver. Soon, the driver fainted from the gunshot. The SUV lost control and spun on the road, and was about to crash into the guardrail!

Using his left hand to grab the steering wheel, K picked up the driver and threw him into the passenger seat. He nimbly changed seats and threw the gun he carried with him to Wu Mei.

“I’ll leave it to you! Contact the Ministry of Defense and ask for backup! Just the three of us won’t do…”

“It’s too late!”

Wu Mei hung Li Nanchen’s jacket out of the window and looked at the jacket that had been shot into a beehive. She accurately followed the direction and angle of the shots and pulled the trigger. Four consecutive bullets pierced through the driver of the motorcycle. She watched as the motorcycle crashed onto the road and into the van that did not have the time to change direction. A bloodthirsty smile appeared on her face.

“Li Nanchen, make the call!”

Wu Mei took out her hairband and tied her hair up. “K, drive the car closer!”

K narrowed his eyes and cooperated with her. With his superb driving skills, Wu Mei could aim at the other party’s fuel tank in an extremely stable posture…

Five seconds later, flames soared into the sky!

A few cars were engulfed in a sea of fire. The Ministry of Defense’s operation team had also turned on their sirens and rushed over to deal with the situation…

After finding out that Li Nanchen’s identity was special, the police arranged for a car to clear the way for him. Wu Mei, who was doing some basic treatment of her wound, pounded on the back of the passenger seat in frustration.

“I lost her!”

Li Nanchen held her fist in his palm and comforted her with a frown, “You’ve already done very well.”

“If it’s really Zhong Ling… If she’s still alive, it means that the Kun Sha drug trafficking case isn’t completely over!” Wu Mei’s eyes were bloodshot as she roared in agitation.

Li Nanchen sighed and pulled her into his arms. He patted her gently and said, “Perhaps you saw wrongly because of the bad condition that you’re in.”

“Or maybe you were hallucinating but thought it was reality!”

Wu Mei shook her head. Her gaze was cold and no one knew what she was thinking.

…

They drove for a long time before they finally arrived at the villa. Li Nanchen accompanied Wu Mei to compose herself while K left first as he had something on.

“Go on in. I’ll be there in a while.”

Wu Mei pushed Li Nanchen’s shoulder, wanting some privacy.

Li Nanchen nodded. When he stepped into the villa to get the butler to prepare some toiletries for Wu Mei, he saw a woman bolting towards him…

“Brother Nanchen!”

“Why are you here?” Li Nanchen’s brows furrowed as he questioned Lin Piaopiao.
