The car was filled with the moisture of the river water and a faint smell of gasoline.

Yu Nian suddenly turned the steering wheel and quickly drove away from this troubled place.

After wiping the moisture off the car window, Yu Bai's heartbeat was still a little fast, but more of it was a sense of tension as if he had survived a disaster.

However, this tightness did not last long.

After driving forward for less than two minutes, they saw a convoy of police cars leading the way, speeding towards them.

Yu Nian subconsciously slowed down the car, his bony fingers turning slightly white from exerting force as he gripped the steering wheel tightly.

The police car stopped about ten meters away from their truck, and several black cars following it also stopped one after another.

The car door opened and a tall, stern-looking policeman got out. He was about fifty years old, and the police rank on his shoulder was still eye-catching in the dim light.

His eyes quickly scanned Yu Nian's truck like a scanner, finally stopping at the cab.

Without waiting for the other party to speak or making eye contact, Yu Bai leaned forward and rolled down the passenger window.

She couldn't let her third brother face this kind of situation. It would be terrible if he revealed his flaws due to nervousness!

"Uncle police, what can I do for you?"

Yu Bai's voice was calm, with just the right hint of doubt. He looked at the policeman calmly and fearlessly.

The policeman obviously didn't expect a young girl to speak first. He paused slightly and then pointed at the roadside guardrail behind them, which was obviously missing a large piece and had a fresh break.

The voice was cold and authoritative: "When you came over there just now, did you see anything unusual? For example, did any car fall off?"

Here we come!

Yu Bai's heart trembled, but he remained calm on the surface. He even looked in the direction he pointed, and then revealed a hint of surprise and confusion at just the right moment.

"No," she shook her head, her tone somewhat innocent.

"We just came from there too. We were wondering why this guardrail was still intact when we went to the city this morning. How come there's such a big hole in it now?"

Her speech speed was neither fast nor slow, her expression was natural, and her eyes were clear, as if she was really just a curious villager passing by.

At this moment, Yu Bai himself was a little surprised.

She thought she would be nervous when facing the police's questioning.

However, it did not.

Her heart was beating steadily, her thoughts were clear, and she could even calmly observe the other person's micro-expressions.

Is it the psychological resilience brought about by rebirth?

Or was it that the mysterious space and the changes in her body also strengthened her nerves?

The old policeman's sharp gaze lingered on Yu Bai's face for a few seconds, as if judging the truthfulness of her words.

Her calmness and those eyes that never dodged or dodged made him relax his guard.

It is indeed unlikely that a young girl and a seemingly honest young truck driver could lie so calmly.

"Nothing." The old policeman retracted his gaze, his tone softened a little, and waved his hand, "There will be temporary traffic control here, please leave quickly."

"Okay, thank you, police comrade." Yu Bai responded politely and winked at Yu Nian.

Yu Nian immediately understood, restarted the truck, and slowly drove past the convoy.

The wheels rolled over the road, making a monotonous sound.

The tense atmosphere in the car didn't ease until the police car and the mysterious black cars were far behind in the rearview mirror and completely disappeared around the next corner of the road.

"call--"

Yu Nian let out a long sigh, and beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead without him knowing when.

At that moment, he was indeed extremely nervous.

Yu Bai also leaned back in his chair, but he could only relax for three seconds before a strong feeling of regret and self-doubt suddenly surged into his heart.

"Third brother," her voice trembled slightly, "did we... do something wrong?"

I have made up my mind to stay away from all unnecessary dangers in this life.

But what did they just do?

Not only did he rescue several unidentified "big shots", he also collected the only physical evidence - the Red Flag car - into the space!

This is no longer just staying out of the matter, this is simply jumping into the muddy water actively, and even hiding the most crucial clues!

Is this right or wrong?

She even had an urge to turn back, hand him over to the police, explain everything clearly, and perhaps even clear herself of any involvement...

"noob!"

Yu Nian suddenly interrupted her wandering thoughts, his voice low and firm.

"Now that things have come to this, there is no turning back!"

He said in a deep voice while keeping his eyes on the road ahead.

"We go back? What? Say we suddenly gained strength and pulled the car out of the river?"

"Or do you have a mysterious dimension that made the car disappear?"

"If you say that, do you think we can still drive home safely like this?"

"What's more," Yu Nian said in a more serious tone, "Have you ever thought about this: if that car accident was really a conspiracy, would we really be safe if we handed the person over now? We might even expose ourselves to real danger!"

Yu Bai fell silent for a moment.

The third brother's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing her impulse and luck just now.

Yes, the moment they chose to save people, many things were already determined.

At that moment, there was no turning back for her and her third brother.

"Third brother, you're right." Yu Bai took a deep breath, his eyes becoming firm again. "We have no choice but to keep going. Let's find a safe place first and see what's happened to those people."

"Yeah." Yu Nian nodded, and the brother and sister reached a tacit understanding again.

He turned the steering wheel skillfully, and the truck drove off the main road and turned into a country road leading to the county town.

This road is bumpier and more secluded.

The bumpy road stretches into the distance, with lush farmland and scattered villages on both sides.

The truck drove on this bumpy road for more than ten kilometers. After confirming that there was no abnormality around and no vehicles or pedestrians in front or behind, Yu Nian slowly pulled the car over.

"I'll go check out the back."

He turned off the engine, applied the handbrake, unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and jumped out, then walked quickly to the back of the car.
