Chen Feng recognized the man at a glance; he was the wanted criminal Gao Xinfu he recently saw in the news.

"Ah!"

Cheng Yuhuan let out a terrified scream after a brief moment of shock, her face drained of color, trembling all over; she clearly recognized him too.

She used to be Ma Guowang's lover. Ma Guowang was killed two days ago, and she had seen related news reports along with Gao Xinfu's wanted photos.

Like Chen Feng, she never dreamed the wanted criminal from the news would appear in front of her, aiming a gun at her.

"One more scream and I'll shoot you!"

Gao Xinfu threatened with a low, menacing tone as he pointed the gun at Cheng Yuhuan.

Cheng Yuhuan's scream abruptly stopped, and she frantically covered her mouth with both hands, afraid she couldn't control herself from screaming again and getting shot.

"I don't want to kill you, but if you don't cooperate, I don't mind killing a few more. You must have recognized who I am by now, right?"

Gao Xinfu glared maliciously at the two of them.

"Alright, how do you want me to cooperate?"

Chen Feng quickly calmed down, considering that he had already "died" once. Ever since he got diagnosed with a terminal illness, every extra day he lived was a bonus.

Although it seemed his condition was improving now, it hadn't fully healed; he was always ready to die at any moment. After all, with brain cancer, the likelihood of sudden death was quite high.

Therefore, suddenly facing this situation, after initial bewilderment, Chen Feng swiftly adopted a pragmatic attitude.

If death is inevitable, it's better to face it calmly.

"Good, first hand over your phones to me."

Gao Xinfu waved his handgun at Chen Feng and Cheng Yuhuan while speaking.

Frightened, Cheng Yuhuan quickly handed over her phone, and Chen Feng cooperated as well, taking out his phone and handing it over.

Gao Xinfu first took Cheng Yuhuan's phone and tossed it onto the back seat. When Chen Feng handed over his phone, he said, "Unlock your phone first."

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing this, then unlocked his phone without hesitation and handed it over.

Gao Xinfu took the phone with satisfaction and said, "Alright, now drive onto the highway towards Central Boundary Island."

Chen Feng hesitated before starting the car, saying, "Friend, I know you're after me. This woman has nothing to do with our affairs, why not let her go?"

Gao Xinfu sneered, "She just has bad luck being here. Plus, she was Ma Laoliu's mistress, always with him back then, acting arrogant, not a good person."

Chen Feng didn't expect Gao Xinfu to know Cheng Yuhuan, feeling a bit speechless.

Cheng Yuhuan clearly didn't expect it either, becoming somewhat dumbfounded and shakily defending herself, "That was two or three years ago; I was only with him for two or three months. I was forced..."

"Shut up, you vile woman," Gao Xinfu interrupted her viciously. "There's nothing good about you women. The prettier you are, the more debased and licentious. One after another, you despise the poor and favor the rich, you are vain. Do you think I believe your words? Two years ago, I saw you and Ma Laoliu together more than once, deeply in love, and you're saying you were forced? You think I'm an idiot? Do you believe I'll kill you first?"

"Ah, no, no, I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't do it again."

Cheng Yuhuan was so terrified she covered her head and trembled, repeatedly admitting her mistakes and pleading for mercy.

"Enough, why scare a woman like that?"

Chen Feng casually remarked while starting the car.

His calm demeanor left Gao Xinfu temporarily stunned, while the frightened Cheng Yuhuan stared at him in disbelief, feeling partly admiring and partly speechless, wondering if he realized they might be killed to silence them soon.

Gao Xinfu is a wanted murderer. Capture means death, so now he can be utterly ruthless; to kill one is death, and to kill several more is the same. To escape and live longer, he had no reason not to kill these witnesses who had seen him.

This was why she was extremely scared a moment ago. She wasn't stupid but rather smart, realizing this essential issue led her to nearly wet herself, deeply gripped by the fear of death.

She wanted to open the car door and run, but her legs were weak. Besides, she mentally rehearsed several times and couldn't avoid the bullet. She could only helplessly slump in the seat, praying for a miracle.

"Aren't you afraid?" Gao Xinfu curiously asked Chen Feng while he was steering the car.

"Is being afraid helpful?" Chen Feng lightly retorted.

"Haha, it doesn't seem to be," Gao Xinfu chuckled, "I'm almost admiring you. Most people in this situation would be scared witless. Yesterday I met one; I pointed a gun at him, made him kneel, he kept bowing to me. Whatever I said, he did. Finally, I scared him deliberately, pretending to shoot, he wet his pants and fainted instantly. Haha, funny, isn't it? He was very arrogant before, spoke loudly, liked to curse people, and many feared him. Who knew he was essentially a coward, can't handle hardship, really disappointed me."

Chen Feng continued in a light tone, "That's not surprising; most people in the world fear death. Those who don't fear are few."

"True," Gao Xinfu agreed, nodding, "Not many aren't afraid of death. Even though I've killed a few, I'm still afraid."

"Oh, how many have you killed? I thought you only killed Ma Laoliu."

Chen Feng looked indifferent, as if discussing killing chickens, showing no sign of panic.

This gave Gao Xinfu a slight sense of frustration, unable to resist saying, "I've killed five in total, two over the past couple of days, the other three abroad."

"Abroad? You've killed overseas? Impressive."

Chen Feng's praise finally satisfied Gao Xinfu, who smiled and proudly said, "Ma Laoliu's group once set me up in a gambling trap, ruining my family. I had to flee south for a living and was deceived by a colleague offering good pay, getting sold as labor in Northern Myanmar.

For most, being laborers ends in tragedy. I almost died several times too but survived, eventually becoming a group leader. Finally, I seized the opportunity for revenge, killing the abusive supervisor and the friend who tricked me, escaped, retaliated against the snakehead who tried extorting me on a smuggling boat back, and then came to Lu City, killing Ma Laoliu."

"What about the last one?" Chen Feng asked.

Gao Xinfu chuckled, "That's the one who wet himself in fear when I threatened him."

"Is he your enemy too?" Chen Feng pressed on. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Sort of. When I was young, I worked in his factory. He was very harsh to the workers, scolding us over anything. I was young, often got cursed. Worst of all, he withheld half a month's salary when I resigned. Though it was only a few hundred, it left me very displeased, resenting him until now. So this time, I kidnapped and killed him."
