None of the three expected that Xiao Shenglin's disaster would come so soon.
Because the first guess about Xiao Baicong's murder to silence the witness was a car accident, after dinner, Xiao Shenglin did not drive the car he brought, but got into Song Xuanhe's car. Zhou Nan originally came in Xiao Shenglin's car, so naturally he got into Song Xuanhe's car with Xiao Shenglin.
Ruyixuan is a quiet hotel in a bustling city. It is located next to a suburban park that has not yet been opened to the public. The road leading out of the hotel is lined with tall trees on both sides. The road leads to a suburban park that is still under renovation. There are few people on that section of the road. The straight road is very short, but the curves are close together, so accidents can easily happen.
Those people's target was Xiao Shenglin, and they would rather keep a low profile than cause a major accident, so they would not take action while he and Zhou Nan were still sitting in the car. However, when the crisis was imminent, even if they analyzed the possibilities calmly, they could not avoid being nervous.
Song Xuan and the entire road were on guard against vehicles that might rush out from the bend. After driving on the flat road for a long time and slowly merging into the main road with heavier traffic, the three people who had been on high alert in the car gradually relaxed their minds.
"There should be nothing to worry about here."
Like Song Xuanhe's idea, Zhou Nan and Xiao Shenglin also believed that those people would not dare to take action on the main road with heavy traffic. Once an accident happened here, it would easily cause a chain reaction, which would inevitably cause a huge response, and that was definitely not what Xiao Bacong wanted to see.
After calming down, the three of them began to speculate whether the strange behavior around Xiao Shenglin in the past few days was caused by people sent by Xiao Bacong, or whether Xiao Bacong contacted other organizations privately in order to confuse the public and buy Xiao Shenglin's life.
Before, Song Xuan and a few others had preconceived notions that Xiao Bacong had sent people to do the work, but after Zhou Nan's joke just now, they thought that it was more likely that Xiao Bacong had hired someone with money.
Because this is safer, more covert, and easier to frame Xiao Yuanmu for Xiao Shenglin's death.
If this is true, Xiao Shenglin's situation will be more dangerous than Song Xuanhe imagined. The peaceful era and this peaceful country seem to be far away from the killer organization, but they all know that this kind of organization does exist, and those people are not like the hidden, mysterious and light martial arts masters in novels. Most of them are serious criminals wanted internationally.
Most of these people live a life of uncertainty, and they are unpredictable, ferocious and cruel. They usually take the money with one hand and the goods with the other, without caring about the consequences. They are very crazy.
If Xiao Bacong was looking for such a person, Xiao Shenglin would really be doomed.
Fortunately, Song Xuanhe knew that Xiao Shenglin died in a silent car accident. Knowing this in advance, he was more inclined to believe that Xiao Bacong sent his own people over.
"This is China after all. No matter how far Xiao Bocong extends his hands, he has to consider the local tyrants. Besides, he hasn't inherited the Xiao family yet, so he can't be so unscrupulous." Zhou Nan frowned, not knowing whether he was comforting them or comforting himself.
Xiao Shenglin pursed his lips slightly. Although there was worry in his eyes, it turned into a gentle smile after seeing his two friends who were worried about him.
"You also said that they won't take action at this time, so you can relax--"
Squeak——
Everything in front of me seemed to be in slow motion.
Song Xuanhe watched helplessly as the green light came on the next second. The vehicles that were driving in an orderly manner were disrupted by a car that suddenly rushed out of the crossroad. The result of their avoidance was that the steering wheels were swaying wildly, and the sound of rear-end collisions occurred one after another. Their car happened to hit the rear end of the car in front.
The impact of the collision was so great that Song Xuanhe's head was pulled back by the seat belt less than three centimeters away from the steering wheel and hit the back of the chair heavily, causing him to feel dizzy.
Zhou Nan next to him was in a similar situation. Although he was frightened, he was safe. Only Xiao Shenglin was thrown against the back of Zhou Nan's chair because he did not wear a seat belt. He groaned and seemed to be injured.
"Are you okay?"
Zhou Nan and Song Xuanhe turned back at the same time. Xiao Shenglin covered his head and shook his head at them. Looking at the other car owners who were arguing with the car that just rushed out, he smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if this is an accident or premeditated."
Song Xuanhe glanced at the people who came out of the car, narrowed his eyes, and relaxed his voice a little, with a hint of deep meaning that Zhou Nan and Xiao Shenglin could not understand, and said: "It should be premeditated, but it was interrupted by an accident."
Zhou Nan was puzzled. He followed the direction of Song Xuanhe and Xiao Shenglin's gaze and saw a group of ordinary men waving their fists and shouting loudly. He couldn't see anything fishy.
He turned around and asked Song Xuanhe: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Shenglin looked at the situation and found some problems. He said to Song Xuanhe hesitantly, "Did the car that rushed out save us?"
Zhou Nan was stunned, but Song Xuanhe nodded.
"The car that was hit seemed to be heading toward Shaoxi East Road, but it made a sharp turn the moment it entered Shaoxi East Road, and it seemed like it lost control of the brakes and crashed into us. Judging from the speed of that car, it could have just avoided the car in front of us and hit us directly."
Zhou Nan listened to Song Xuanhe's analysis and his eyes fell on the car. He had just turned his head to talk to Xiao Shenglin, so he didn't see the car deviate from the original road. After hearing what Song Xuanhe said and seeing the front of the car that was almost scrapped, he felt relieved belatedly.
If it weren't for the car that accidentally ran off the road, they would have been hit by the car that planned the accident. The car behind them failed to brake in time, and they would have been attacked from both sides. If they didn't die, they would have lost half their lives.
Thinking of this, Zhou Nan felt sorry for the man apologizing in the crowd, and couldn't help but say, "The guy in front saved our lives. We can't just watch him get beaten. Let's go and help him."
Song Xuanhe shook his head, pointed at the men in front of him who were already shaking their fists in indignation, and said, "Do they look like they are going to beat that guy up?"
Zhou Nan looked carefully and saw that the person he thought was apologizing was actually talking to someone else, and those angry drivers were obviously venting their anger on other people.
"I'll go down and take a look."
Song Xuanhe frowned, squeezed the airbag, opened the car door, and walked towards the people who were talking.
"Are you looking for death? You saw the car over here and you rammed it. If this guy hadn't spotted you and blocked it, there would have been more than a dozen lives lost in our car. Can you afford the compensation?"
"Even if you want to commit suicide, at least find a quiet place. Are you going to drag everyone to be buried with you?"
"Yeah, this guy must have just come out of some mental hospital. He's fucking antisocial."
Surrounded by people who were scolding him, the driver who caused the accident just stood in the middle with his head down and remained silent, as if he couldn't speak at all.
Only the owner of the car who had just rushed out and was standing next to him saw Song Xuanhe coming over and his eyes flashed.
"Why aren't you talking?"
One man pushed the driver, but found that he couldn't move the car at all. The man was surprised and got even angrier. He tried harder to push the driver, and if one hand couldn't push the car, he would use both hands and be determined to teach the driver a lesson.
Song Xuanhe got into the crowd, patted a man who was cursing nearby, and said, "Brother, can you tell me what happened? My car was in the back and was suddenly attacked from both sides. The airbag was deployed and I just recovered now."
The man who was cursing was speaking in a rage at this time. He was about to point the gun at the person who was filming him, but when he turned around and saw the handsome and smiling Song Xuanhe, he held back and just frowned and said in a cold voice: "The mute in front was crazy and rushed over at the intersection. If the person in front hadn't stopped him, you would not only be unable to recover."
Song Xuanhe pretended to be surprised: "He is a mute?"
"I don't know. He didn't say a word from beginning to end. He kept his head down even after we pulled him down. If the man who hit his car hadn't stopped him, he would have run away. We didn't even see his face clearly at that moment."
Song Xuanhe nodded thoughtfully and said, "So that's how it is. I thought he was unwilling to raise his head because of some shady identity. I was overthinking."
"What is this shameful identity?"
The person next to him heard it and came over to ask.
Song Xuanhe blinked. His handsome face, clean temperament, and the combination of white T-shirt and jeans made him look like a student who has not yet entered society. He said, "Isn't that how it's played on TV? Fugitives are afraid of being recognized, so they don't dare to be seen."
After he finished speaking, the man who had been lowering his head suddenly raised his head a little, and the fierce light in his eyes stabbed straight at him, which startled Song Xuanhe. He attracted the attention of the people around him and pretended to be frightened and said, "I guess I guessed right?"
Originally, Song Xuanhe just said it casually, and no one would take his words seriously seeing his young appearance. But as soon as he finished speaking, the man raised his head, which made the people around him suspicious.
Song Xuanhe guessed based on the man's behavior that he was not Xiao Bacong's man, because if Xiao Bacong's man was here, he would definitely take the initiative to assume responsibility and then find a reason to deal with the incident as soon as possible, instead of running away as the man in front of him did, and when there was no way to escape, he kept his head down and didn't say a word, probably waiting for an opportunity to escape. He probably had the same intention when he bumped into her, taking advantage of the chaos to run away, but his plan was disrupted by the car that rushed out.
These behaviors undoubtedly pointed in another direction, so he tried to test it out, but he didn't expect that he really figured it out.
Song Xuanhe's heart sank, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. If this man was alone, it should be easy to deal with. After handing him over to the police, the police would naturally have a way to find out his identity, and he wouldn't need to worry about what happened afterwards.
The person who had just spoken to Song Xuanhe was standing closest to him and also saw that look. The fierce look in his eyes made his face pale. He took a step back behind Song Xuanhe and whispered, "I... I don't think he was looking at us, but at what's behind us."
Song Xuanhe paused and looked back suddenly, but before he could turn his head, the collision sound and Zhou Nan's sudden shout told him what happened.
"Lin Zi——"
Turning around, Xiao Shenglin had already fallen in a pool of blood.
