Chapter 637 At All Costs
Zhou Anan subconsciously stepped on the accelerator and looked at the many vehicles moving slowly in front of him. His mind was startled. He didn't have time to honk the horn or anything, but just subconsciously turned to the side.
"Bang!"
In the blink of an eye, a pickup truck traveling in the same direction as the van roared and slammed into the front of the truck.
The impact of the pickup truck's front end instantly deformed, causing the large truck, which had not slowed down, to change direction and pass by the rear of the white Maserati that had just moved to the side.
"ah"
The direction of the car suddenly turned, and Shi Mingxia and another person sitting in the back seat who were not wearing seat belts were thrown around by inertia. The two who hit the car door couldn't help but scream.
Zhou Anan, who escaped the disaster, stepped on the brakes when he was about to hit a roadside house when he drove out of the highway.
Without having time to check on the two women behind him, Zhou Anan turned his head in shock to look at the big truck, which hit several cars in succession at a very fast speed that had no time to dodge. Finally, it crashed through the isolation flower bed in the middle of the national highway and overturned on the road on the other side with a dull crash sound.
If he had not dodged just now and the truck had not changed direction, the Maserati's current fate would not be any better than those deformed cars.
Fortunately, fortunately.
"Are you all right?"
After being stunned for two seconds, Zhou Anan came back to her senses and asked the two women behind her with concern.
"I'm fine, what happened?"
Shi Mingxia, who didn't notice the truck accident, touched his forehead which was a little painful from hitting the car window and asked in confusion.
"That's good. You guys stay in the car and don't move. I'll go down and take a look."
Seeing that his girlfriend was fine, Zhou Anan breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of the deformed van and pickup truck he had glimpsed earlier, he instructed the two girls and quickly got out of the car and ran over.
Zhou Anan remembered that Xiao Ping who followed him was driving a white van. Could it be him?
At this time, the national highway leading into the city, which had been ravaged by large trucks, was in a mess, with vehicle debris everywhere. Other vehicles were crowded at the back, and many car owners were watching from a distance.
Some people picked up the phone to call the police, and some experienced drivers and enthusiastic people had already started running over to rescue people.
Amidst the shrill wailing, Zhou Anan, enduring the discomfort, avoided many obstacles and came to the deformed white van.
Before Zhou Anan could see the person in the driver's seat clearly, two young men got out of the pickup truck with a badly deformed front end and ran over quickly.
"Boss Zhou, this place is dangerous. I will escort you back first. Lao Liang will be in charge of Xiao Ping."
One of the young men, who had a scar at the corner of his eye and blood on his forehead, came to Zhou Anan, looked around vigilantly, and was about to pull him back to a safe area nearby.
"How is Xiao Ping?"
Without looking any further, Zhou Anan knew that the person in the white van was Xiao Ping, and couldn't help but ask with concern.
"I don't know. Your safety is the most important thing right now. We suspect this was a premeditated murder. You are not safe yet. Please follow my instructions."
Protecting the big boss, Cheng Ping'an walked quickly to the side. He ignored the car owners and passengers who needed help. He looked around quickly and alertly, ready to judge any possible danger at any time.
Protecting the boss is his most important task now.
This is a basic skill for them when they are in the military.
"We must rescue Xiao Ping."
After hearing what the other party said, Zhou Anan was shocked, but without thinking too much, she spoke to the other person worriedly, and followed one of them to leave cooperatively.
At this point, his safety comes first.
Xiao Ping has another retired veteran to rescue him, and he is in good health, so he should be fine.
When it comes to professional matters, you should follow the instructions of professionals.
In those stupid TV dramas, the protagonist ignores the bodyguard's advice, acts arbitrarily, causing trouble for the bodyguard, and then gets into dangerous situations. No normal person would do that in real life.
Returning to the Maserati, he naturally gave the driving seat to the other party, and Zhou Anan sat in the passenger seat.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing a strange man sitting in the driver's seat, Shi Mingxia asked curiously.
If her boyfriend hadn't been sitting in the passenger seat, she would have thought someone was trying to steal the car.
"There's something. Let's talk about it when we get back. Everyone fasten your seat belts."
Without saying much, Zhou Anan quickly fastened his seat belt and talked to the two women, then he felt the car under him suddenly rush out.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, I'm not used to this car."
Seeing from the rearview mirror that the two girls had not fastened their seat belts, Cheng Ping'an, who had never driven a Maserati, said something embarrassedly, which diluted the tense atmosphere in the car a little.
"fine."
Seeing that his girlfriend and he had fastened their seat belts, Zhou Anan felt relieved. He looked at the bodyguard who was skillfully avoiding the speeding vehicles in front. He felt relieved, but at the same time he was worried about Xiao Ping who was still in critical condition.
"Are you okay?!!!"
Hearing that Zhou Anan had been in a car accident, Xia Chengjiang, who was holding his mobile phone, couldn't help but be startled. He stood up and asked with concern.
This young man is his benefactor, and nothing must happen to him.
Although the other party calling you means it’s not a big deal, his attitude must be right.
"I'm fine, but one of my friends is seriously injured and lying in the hospital. He is still in critical condition."
Thinking of Xiao Ping who was still in the hospital for emergency treatment, Zhou Anan felt cold in her heart.
If this was a premeditated murder, he would make the other party pay the most painful price, at any cost.
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
Knowing that the other party was not calling to chat, Xia Chengjiang asked in a deep voice.
"I need Brother Xia to find out the truth about this as soon as possible. Is there someone behind this? It would be best if you could give me a result today."
Zhou Anan stood in the Century Suite, looking through the floor-to-ceiling glass at the small lake in the distance that was glowing in the night, suppressing her inner restlessness.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing in his life. Zhou Anan did not expect that the legendary murder would happen to him. Now he had to live in this dusty big suite for safety reasons.
According to Cheng Ping'an, it is not clear whether the other party has any backup plan.
The houses on the Century Nianhua side just happen to have two households per floor, and he had previously bought an entire floor so that Cheng Ping'an could live in the house next door for better protection.
Even if it was a part-time worker, he couldn't be called because of safety issues, so he and his girlfriend had to do the cleaning alone.
It's really, really frustrating.
"Okay, I'll go over and take care of it right away."
After hearing the other party's request, Xia Chengjiang agreed without hesitation.
If it is really a murder case, it is definitely not a trivial matter.
It just so happened that he, as the captain of the criminal police brigade, had a place to use his talents.
However, before leaving, Xia Chengjiang still made a safe call to Director He: "This is what happened. If there is really murder involved, the Lei family may be the most suspicious."
"Lei family? You should do this matter carefully. If you have any questions, feel free to call me."
Hearing Xia Chengjiang's guess, He Zhenhai felt a chill in his heart.
If it was really the Lei family's revenge because of the previous incident, then he, as the instigator who advocated making a show of force in order to scare the enemy, would inevitably be blamed by his superiors.
He knew clearly that the young man was highly valued by the Yu family.
"OK."
With the support of his immediate superior, Xia Chengjiang immediately led the police team.
Arriving at the scene of the massive car accident, Xia Chengjiang, who had been hoping for a lucky break, suddenly understood what was happening. He immediately asked someone to search for clues from the truck driver who had unfortunately died due to drunk driving and caused the tragedy.
The truck driver's son was seriously ill and needed a kidney transplant. Two days ago, he suddenly found a suitable kidney source, and an inexplicable amount of 300,000 yuan was transferred into the other party's medical account.
A project manager of Luda Property, a subsidiary of Luda Real Estate, happened to withdraw 300,000 yuan in cash from the bank two days ago, and it was the bank branch where the money was remitted.
The company the truck driver worked for happened to be transporting waste soil for a project of Luda Real Estate during this period.
The powerful administrative machinery started to work, and clues were collected one by one. Xia Chengjiang, who already had some guesses in his mind, unraveled the mystery and soon found one of the key points.
"Find this Chen Liang for me right now."
