Chapter Five? Seriously?! Are you out of your mind?

Chapter Five? Seriously?! Are you out of your mind?
That bottommost thing is nothing else.
It's a gun.
A Type 54 pistol.
It's obvious that firearms exist in a country where guns are banned.
They're either soldiers or thieves with connections.
Judging from their behavior, these people could not possibly be soldiers.
They can only be thieves kept by some rich people.
Zhou Ran dumped the things onto the bed sheet and quickly packed them up.
As I was leaving, I smelled the fermenting stench on my clothes, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and rushed into the bathroom with my things in my arms.
He swiftly stripped off all his clothes.
Zhou Ran quickly took a shower and washed her hair.
After showering for five or six minutes, I grabbed a towel and started rummaging through the closet while drying myself.
Just grab any pair of sweatpants and slip them on.
Because of her size, the pants Zhou Ran wore were baggy and oversized.
Zhou Ran quickly rolled up her trouser legs.
I put on a black long-sleeved shirt.
Of course, it was just as fat and big. After casually tugging at it a couple of times, Zhou Ran inadvertently noticed the injury on her wrist.
He was only focused on the time while he was showering; he didn't care about anything else.
He quickly threw away the wet gauze, grabbed a sleeve from a white shirt, and wrapped it around the wound.
I just caught a glimpse of the wounds; there were four or five wounds, but only one was bleeding.
It seems he hesitated at one point, but still chose to kill himself.
Sometimes Zhou Ran didn't even know whether she should admire these people.
We should still criticize these people.
Or should we pity these people?
They have the courage to face something as terrible as death.
But they didn't destroy everything and start over.
His situation was even worse than this.
An alcoholic and drug-addicted father, a violent and drug-addicted mother, a group of vicious relatives and friends, and a naive and innocent younger brother who is also a vampire.
His beginning was like the most tragic protagonist setup in a novel.
It's the kind of thing that needs someone to save it, something stuck in a swamp.
He became a superior person through his own efforts and by risking everything.
To become someone those people can't reach, someone they can only fawn over with smiles and flattery.
He has the courage to face the swamp, and the courage to climb out of it.
He relied on no one but himself to carve out a bloody path.
That's why he suddenly found himself in a strange world.
Despite facing an almost all-out pursuit at the start, they still gave it their all.
Use every means to break through.
Because he always believed in himself.
His strength comes from himself, not from anything else.
He has the ability and the strength; he just needs to be given the opportunity.
He can also become the best version of himself.
Even if you are surrounded by thorns, you can still find a way out.
His mind raced, and his hands didn't stop moving at the same time.
After changing his clothes, he glanced at his phone.
Twenty minutes have passed, and his time is running out.
He threw his already locked phone out the window.
He took the cash, his phone, and the gun, and went to the garage.
He ran away on his own without any means of transportation, so he is very likely to be caught.
Now we need to take a risky approach.
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
When those people returned, they found the items were gone and their accomplices had disappeared.
They'll definitely search the house; it's not safe to hide inside.
They will definitely need to change their mode of transportation.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have let the third son drive.
Therefore, the garage is the safest, yet most unsafe, place.
Zhou Ran looked around the garage, but there was nowhere to hide.
There were some odds and ends in the corner, but hiding in there would definitely get you caught.
He casually picked up an iron rod from the clutter.
He deftly pried open the trunk of the most unremarkable car.
There are four cars here. Hopefully, we won't be so unlucky and those people will choose this one.
Once those people leave, he can come out and escape.
Zhou Ran had just opened the door and hadn't even gone inside when she heard a commotion coming from upstairs.
Without even bothering to drop the iron bar in her hand, Zhou Ran quickly crawled inside.
Close the pried-open trunk tightly.
He had just finished doing all that when he heard shouting and cursing coming from outside.
Amidst the shouts and curses, came a flurry of hurried footsteps.
The people who came were in a hurry; there were at least three or four of them. Because their footsteps were too disordered, Zhou Ran couldn't tell exactly how many there were.
"Get in the car quickly! We can't delay, they're catching up soon!"
"He's a fucking lunatic!"
"Stop talking nonsense. If we get caught, that madman will tear us apart and feed us to the fish."
"Get the hell inside, don't try anything funny, or I'll break your arms."
"Shut your mouth and stop crying!"
"Hurry up, get in the car!!"
"Seventh Brother, drive!"
...
The last two sentences sounded very familiar to Zhou Ran. She was certain she had heard them before; it must be Old Yang's voice.
They arrived ahead of schedule, as expected.
Someone is chasing them.
Judging from their voices, they have taken hostages.
There is more than one hostage.
As Zhou Ran listened intently, she noticed the sound was getting closer and closer.
Zhou Ran silently rolled her eyes.
Damn it, he knew it; he was a jinx.
Of all the cars available, these people chose his.
Zhou Ran chose this car because it was covered in dust and looked like it wasn't used often.
It was old and run-down in the garage.
When someone is on a road trip, they would choose a high-performance, well-maintained vehicle that can travel long distances.
Who knew these people wouldn't follow the expected path?
They just had to choose this old, dilapidated car that looked like it was practically useless.
It's like bad luck opening the door to bad luck; bad luck has reached its peak.
He slowed his breathing, trying not to be noticed.
The car sped off like lightning, and Zhou Ran had to use her hands and feet to brace herself against the force of the push.
It didn't roll around in the trunk like a ball.
Zhou Ran's situation is relatively good.
The people in the car had already collided.
Both the bandits and the hostages had contorted expressions on their faces.
The car roared off, its speed putting even race cars to shame.
After the car had been flying for a while, the people inside finally got used to it a little.
Old Yang breathed a long sigh of relief.
Only then did he ask, "Didn't you see Hou San?"
"No, no one answers the phone. Boss, your things are missing from your bedroom."
"Damn, this kid is trying to double-cross me."
Old Yang couldn't help but spit.
He now strongly suspects that the kid saw the money in the drawer and ran away with it.
He shouldn't have trusted that kid; look at the wine bottle on the ground.
They must have been outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, emboldened by alcohol, and driven by greed, they took the money and ran away.
Don't let that kid have a chance to see him again.
When I see him again, I'll skin that brat alive and make sure he knows that Yang Jianren's money isn't so easy to take.
But now is not the time to settle scores.
They need to get their people out of here as soon as possible.
Yang Jianren looked to the side.
Their target was Xia Chengjie, who looked completely stunned and terrified. Little did they know they'd run into this woman over there.
They finally found the vulnerability, but it took them two men to get in.
If you miss this opportunity, you can forget about taking them away next time.
Having no other choice, Yang Jianren made a last-minute decision to take the woman with him as well.
Then they were hunted down.
The bodyguards of the Gu family are all retired soldiers who have found new jobs. Their ability to chase people is something that these makeshift teams can't match.
They were chased all the way, and only after they finally shook them off and calmed down did they realize that they knew this woman.
This person is not Shen Shuyun, the fiancée of Gu Tingxiao, the eldest son of the Gu family.
She seems to be a minor celebrity, with a pure and innocent-looking face.
Gu Tingxiao was absolutely delighted.
He'd be willing to die for this fiancée.
Despite opposition, he broke off the engagement with the Xia family.
The engagement to this nobody caused the Xia family to be criticized by the entire aristocratic circle.
They had heard that Xia Chengjie, the Third Young Master Xia, had recently come to settle scores with Gu Tingxiao.
That's how they got the chance to kidnap Xia Chengjie.
Who knew that everything was planned so perfectly, when this innocent-looking Shen Shuyun suddenly appeared out of nowhere and provoked Xia Chengjie.
If there was one more person, they would have no choice but to arrest them all.
This woman truly lives up to her reputation as a delicate, innocent flower.
She cried from the moment she was captured, her tears streaming down her face, a sight that evoked pity in me.
Unfortunately, no one present bought into it.
Old Yang and the others were even more annoyed, having such a crybaby as a burden.
"Shut up, your crying is driving me crazy!!"
He couldn't help but scold again.
The sixth brother raised the dagger in his hand, signaling that if Shen Shuyun cried again, he would slash her face.
Shen Shuyun dared not cry anymore and hurriedly covered her mouth.
The car sped along.
Zhou Ran, who was in the trunk, also heard their conversation.
The cause and effect became clear from the complaints.
Judging from the sound, the driver was Lao Qi, and Lao Liu and Lao Wu each had a hostage tied up on their left and right.
Old Yang sat in the passenger seat, overseeing the overall situation and issuing orders.
Judging from their conversation, they didn't kidnap Xia Chengjie for money.
It was to follow orders and take the person away, but the specifics of what to do were not mentioned.
Anyway, we need to keep them alive.
As for that unlucky guy, Shen Shuyun, we'll see how things go.
Since these people are vicious and ruthless, if Shen Shuyun has no value, he will likely be treated the same as before.
They're either sold or thrown away.
Whether they survive or not is entirely up to fate.
Zhou Ran suppressed the urge to sigh.
He just wanted to be a handsome man in peace, but who knew he would encounter something like this.
The car, which had been moving smoothly, suddenly accelerated.
I heard screams coming from inside the car.
"Boss, something bad has happened! A car is chasing us from behind."
"Damn it! These guys are like ghosts that won't leave us alone! Speed up, shake them off."
The car accelerated again.
Zhou Ran silently braced herself against the trunk.
Could he get any unlucky?
Zhou Ran was speechless.
I really want to lie down and just let someone kill him.
It seemed that the heavens had heard his prayers, for a tremendous force struck.
Zhou Ran bumped into the innermost part of her back, causing her excruciating pain.
grass!
He really is crazy; the people behind him actually crashed into him.
"Damn it, they're all sick!! They're all fucking crazy!! Crazy!"
Old Seven kept the car under control while cursing.
He noticed the car behind him and increased the distance, worried that something might happen.
The car behind didn't hesitate at all and crashed right into us.
The powerful impact caused the car to skid and turn sideways.
Lao Qi frantically tried to control the steering wheel to stabilize the car.
Just then, the car chasing from behind crashed into them again, disregarding everything.
Old Yang and his group's car had already turned sideways, and that car was heading straight for the side of their car to crash into them.
Old Yang and the others in the car watched as the car approached rapidly.
Their expressions of terror and their crazed rage as they tried to take each other down were crystal clear.
