The distance between Miyamoto Kuro and himself could be closed in less than a few minutes with the performance of this Ferrari.
But at the moment, the road was too congested, and even with Xu Fan's driving skills and a good car, he was very limited.
More importantly, there were always several modified cars blocking the way in front of him, restricting his speed and preventing him from catching up with Miyamoto Kuro.
These guys were mostly the Dead Soldiers of the Miyamoto Itto-ryu, and now even if Xu Fan used his car to ram them, they didn't show the slightest fear.
It was obvious that they had decided to use their lives to block Xu Fan.
With such obstruction, Xu Fan had no chance of catching up with Miyamoto Kuro and taking Qin Mengyue back from him.
The chase brought them out of the downtown area, and the road they were on now led to an abandoned factory in the west suburbs of Jinling.
Although he had shaken off quite a few modified cars, who knew how many people Miyamoto Kuro had arranged to stop him.
No matter how he tried to shake them off, there would always be someone blocking his way.
"Hmm?"
A glance ahead and seeing Miyamoto Kuro's GTR in the distance, Xu Fan frowned.
With his movement so restricted, even if Miyamoto Kuro's driving was bad, he should have been able to shake off Xu Fan.
But he was always within Xu Fan's line of sight, yet at a distance that Xu Fan couldn't catch up to.
Understanding the purpose of this wasn't difficult, and after a bit of thought, Xu Fan couldn't help but laugh.
This guy was clearly luring him into a trap.
If Xu Fan was not mistaken, Miyamoto Kuro must have set up an ambush at the abandoned factory in the west suburbs, waiting for him to jump into the pit.
Having figured all this out, Xu Fan calmly continued driving, following the lead of the few modified cars ahead, heading towards the abandoned factory in the west suburbs.
After about twenty minutes, the modified cars that had been blocking his way had all gone. Not far ahead was the abandoned factory in the west suburbs.
At the gate, he could see Miyamoto Kuro's parked GTR. Clearly, he had already taken Qin Mengyue into the factory.
The previous chase had caused some damage to his Ferrari. Xu Fan parked the car at the entrance and jumped out.
The abandoned factory in the west suburbs was originally specialized in steel production, but it had been shut down a few years ago due to excessive pollution and had been left derelict ever since.
Several homicide cases had occurred here before, proving that this place was definitely an excellent spot for a fatal ambush.
The complex terrain inside the factory made it an ideal environment for an ambush. Knowing Miyamoto Kuro's intelligence, Xu Fan believed that heavy ambushes were waiting for him inside.
Xu Fan was not in a hurry to rush in to rescue the hostage; he was well aware that Miyamoto Kuro's purpose in kidnapping Qin Mengyue was only to lure him.
As long as he did not show up, Qin Mengyue would not be harmed at all.
Standing at the entrance, Xu Fan crouched down and began picking up small stones.
"One..."
"Two..."
"Three..."
He muttered numbers to himself, stuffing a stone into his pocket with each count.
This behavior was somewhat strange, but a careful observer of the gold glint in his right eye at this moment would discover the mystery within.
Through Xu Fan's pupils, one could see the factory's terrain gradually becoming transparent. The ambushes carefully arranged by Miyamoto Kuro in the dark were now revealed in Xu Fan's eyes, with nowhere to hide!
He was counting the number of people Miyamoto Kuro had laid in ambush here.
And what he was carrying in his pocket were the Death Charms that would soon take their lives!
"Forty-four..."
Finally, Xu Fan finished counting, and a wicked smile curled up at the corner of his mouth as he walked directly through the slightly ajar factory doors.
Stepping into the factory and looking up, he could see Miyamoto Kuro waiting on the overpass about fifty meters ahead.
Qin Mengyue was bound right next to him, tied to a pillar.
This foolish woman still seemed unaware of the truth. Seeing Xu Fan enter the factory, her beautiful eyes widened, and she began to shake her head with muffled noises.
Clearly, she wanted Xu Fan to leave this place quickly.
"Heh, Xu Fan, you really made me wait, didn't you?"
Miyamoto Kuro's chilly voice echoed throughout the vast factory. Xu Fan, looking up at him with his self-satisfied expression, smiled and walked towards him.
"What's the matter, Miyamoto Kuro, thinking you've won just because you led me into the trap?"
"Hahaha, Xu Fan, still bold enough to talk to me like that at a time like this?"
As Xu Fan took step by step closer to him, Miyamoto Kuro, utterly fearless, burst into laughter and said, "My good-for-nothing brother was as arrogant as you are, which is why he's now a cripple."
"And you, soon, will be a dead man."
When Xu Fan was less than ten meters away, Miyamoto Kuro swiftly pulled a gun from his waist and fired it at the ground before Xu Fan's feet.
"Stop, that's far enough."
Watching Xu Fan obediently halt, Miyamoto Kuro narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Xu Fan, you see, a man has only one life, and it's quite a pity to lose it. I'm offering you a way to avoid death now, how about it? Interested?"
"Oh?"
Xu Fan raised an eyebrow, hands in his pockets, appearing quite intrigued as he shrugged and asked, "Do tell?"
"Haha, looks like you do know what's good for you."
Miyamoto Kuro smiled and said, "The people who followed me yesterday, they were your men, weren't they?"
"My men tell me they're quite capable. They followed for so long without being shaken off. Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, your men probably didn't come today; they're protecting another woman, right?"
"So, how about this? You let your men follow me, Miyamoto Kuro, and I won't kill you. You can even follow me, enjoy the good life, spicy and all. How about it?"
"Of course, this woman, I can let her go too, hand her over to you."
Wanting to ascend to the highest position in the Miyamoto Family, Miyamoto Kuro's intentions couldn't be simpler: he wanted to swallow Xu Fan's power.
Negotiating with Xu Fan, he used his gun to flick away the cloth stuffed in Qin Mengyue's mouth.
"Xu Fan! Don't listen to this guy's nonsense!"
"Run! He's got a lot of people lying in ambush here!"
"..."
Now that she could finally speak, Qin Mengyue's first words were to tell him to run, not to hurry and save her. Xu Fan couldn't help but shake his head with a mix of laughter and tears; on second thought, it was indeed like her.
"You know, Qin Mengyue, weren't you quite full of yourself yesterday? Saying you're a police officer and that you wouldn't be bullied by bad guys?"
"Now, all tied up, care to explain?"
Xu Fan was in no hurry, smiling as he started teasing Qin Mengyue.
"Get lost!"
Whether it was the effects of the drug or a bit of embarrassment, Qin Mengyue's face reddened as she huffed, "I'd rather die than have you meddle. Just go!"
