48: Chapter 48 Unexpected Collision

48 -48 Unexpected Collision

Soon after, Lu Yi and Jie drove the van into the underground parking lot of the commercial plaza.

The equipment brought by Du Jun was impressive—they still maintained a stable signal, none of them lost.

Jie couldn’t help but ask, “Do you think they will make a move today?

I have this strange feeling.” fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

In response, Lu Yi answered, “We went through all this trouble in the hope that they will fall for our trap.

Of course, I want them to show up, but I also worry about their appearance.

I fear we might not be able to handle it.”

“Yeah, remember the scene when Sun Yi disappeared?

It was as if he was bewitched.

I really don’t know if we’re dealing with humans here or something else.” After Jie finished, the atmosphere suddenly became chilling.

“Please don’t scare people like that.” Just as Lu Yi finished speaking, he saw a car parked opposite.

It wasn’t unusual in a commercial plaza parking lot, but the face of one of the men stepping out of the car seemed strangely familiar to him.

Four men got out of this car, all dressed in suits and sunglasses, looking like employees of the plaza.

Jie, noticing Lu Yi’s intrigued gaze, couldn’t resist asking, “What’s up?

You keep staring at those four guys.”

“I feel like I’ve seen them somewhere?” Lu Yi looked thoughtful, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t pinpoint where.

Yet he was sure he’d seen them before.

Jie responded, “Alright, stop overthinking.

It might just be your imagination.

Let’s stay on the watch.” And he went on to stare at his phone screen, suddenly announcing, “Looks like Zhou Yu is making a move.

He’s heading to the restroom now.”

“Really?

This is the crucial moment.” Lu Yi also looked at the screen, noticing the red dot representing Zhou Yu move far away from their target, Gu Fan—ten meters, twenty meters;

Just then, Gu Fan sent a message in their group chat: “Everyone, be alert.

We’re halfway through the movie, Zhou Yu just went to the restroom.

Some others in the theater have also left.

Something might happen.

Stay alert.”

Upon receiving this message, both Lu Yi and Jie were hyper-focused, eyes glued to their phone screens.

If Zhou Yu’s movement shows anything unusual, they’re ready to take action.

At that moment, however, Zhou Yu was only pretending to use the restroom, lamenting in pretense while keeping an eye on his surroundings.

Upon seeing someone walk in, he became extremely nervous, his heart pounding.

One stranger after another walked in, positioning themselves on Zhou Yu’s left and right, seemingly doing the same stuff.

One of them was nonchalantly whistling away.

However, to Zhou Yu, it felt like a massive crisis was looming, especially given that these two men were taller and bulkier than him.

“Stay calm, I need to stay calm.” Zhou Yu struggled to control his fear and shaking hands.

His limbs were frigid and a cold sweat was running down his back.

He wanted to turn and run, but his feet seemed to freeze.

Zhou Yu didn’t dare to look at the men on his sides.

He feared things could go south the moment his eyes met theirs.

A moment later, the man on his left finished and went to wash his hands.

Shortly after, the man on his right also finished, one going ahead, the other leaving behind, leaving Zhou Yu in an awkward position.

Suppressing the internal fear but unable to calm his wildly pounding heart, Zhou Yu took deep breaths before finally washing his hands and leaving.

He never thought he would make it out of that situation unharmed.

When Zhou Yu returned to the theater and sat back down next to Gu Fan and the rest, everyone seemed to release a sigh of relief.

They were worried about Zhou Yu, and it was a relief to see him return safely.

Gu Fan whispered, “How was it?

Did you encounter anything abnormal?”

Zhou Yu shook his head in response, “Just two guys using the restroom like me, nothing else.”

Gu Fan continued to ask, “Were there any suspicious behaviors from these two?”

Zhou Yu shook his head again, “Not at all, they were just casually peeing.

It was me who was shaking out of fear—my heart was about to leap out.”

“You did well.” Gu Fan then fell into deep thought, speculating if he had made a mistake because the enemy missed such a good opportunity.

Zhou Yu, who had just experienced a walk near the other side, fearfully said after a while, “Gu Fan, I believe they won’t make a move today.

We might have to wait until next time.”

“Really?

But the more relaxed they seem, the more we shouldn’t let our guard down.” Gu Fan’s worry was not unfounded.

After brooding for a while, he suggested, “What if…you go again?” But he immediately shook his head, feeling it’s not appropriate, “Never mind.

As long as everyone is safe today, that’s all that matters.

Let’s call it a day.”

“No, I think I should go there again.

Since I’m already here, I can’t leave without achieving anything.” Zhou Yu laughed, revealing a very relaxed demeanor.

In the pitch-black cinema, it was impossible to see the fear hidden behind his relaxed expression, a deep, profound fear.

However, under Gu Fan’s insistence, Zhou Yu did not go to the restroom again.

Gu Fan felt that perhaps it was divine intervention, and they could finally end this dangerous game, like one of those scenes from the movies.

The two-hour film ended quickly.

As it was a popular film, the theatre was packed, and everyone rose to leave, all heading towards the exit.

Those who came to the movie included Gu Fan, Lin Xi, Du Jun, Zhou Yu, and two other classmates.

They were walking at the back of the group, laughing and chatting, completely forgetting the purpose of their trip.

They were holding hands, showing affection as if they had just fallen in love.

The nearer they got to the exit, the more people there were.

Everyone was crowded together, but no one seemed afraid.

Gu Fan didn’t believe that anyone would dare to attack them at this time, right?

Suddenly, Gu Fan heard an angry voice behind him.

It sounded like someone was growling at someone else like a beast.

Before he could understand what was happening, there was a commotion in the crowd behind him.

The shouts made Gu Fan turn back immediately, only to see people fighting.

Moreover, it was not strangers, but his classmates.

“What’s going on?” Gu Fan didn’t understand what was happening.

He saw the male classmate, who was acting lovey-dovey with his girlfriend earlier, now fighting fiercely with another man.

“Stop fighting!” The female classmate tried to stop the fight, but she couldn’t pull apart the two muscular male classmates.

She could only watch as their fight grew more intense.

Unsure of what had happened, Gu Fan wanted to get closer to see, but the crowd had become chaotic because of the fight, and he was pushed aside.

“Damn it, don’t scatter, everyone.” Gu Fan yelled while grabbing Lin Xi’s hand.

He couldn’t let the chaotic crowd separate them, then he muttered, “Who can tell me what the hell is going on?”

Lin Xi answered, “I guess the boyfriend saw his girlfriend watching a movie with another man, laughing and chatting, so he was angry and started fighting.”

“Oh my God, they are from the same school.

What a coincidence.” Gu Fan had to sigh.

What those classmates had done was not honorable, and the male classmate deserved the beating for poaching someone else’s girlfriend.

Because of the crowd, Gu Fan and Lin Xi were pushed a little further away.

They could not clearly see the situation where the fight was happening.

They guessed the two classmates fighting were now on the ground.

“Where are Du Jun and Zhou Yu?” Gu Fan looked around.

When the crowd became chaotic, they were all scattered.

Not finding anyone, Gu Fan was very anxious and immediately made a call: “Lu Yi, we have a slight problem here, quick tell me if Zhou Yu and Du Jun are still near me?”

Lu Yi replied immediately: “Looking at the situation, Lin Xi is by your side, Du Jun is not far from you, and two other classmates are nearby, but it seems that Zhou Yu has already left the cinema.”

“What?” Gu Fan felt something was wrong, then immediately asked: “Is Zhou Yu constantly moving after leaving, or did he stop somewhere?”

“It seems he is constantly moving, and he’s getting further away from you.” Lu Yi’s answer gave Gu Fan a chill, then he got frantic: “Tell the other three students to rush upstairs immediately.

Things are chaotic here, we’ll rush over as soon as we can.”

Hearing this, Lu Yi immediately contacted the other three students, asking them to rush up urgently.

However, Jie found it strange, “In this hustle and bustle, if the other party really fights, there are so many people in the shopping mall.

Aren’t they afraid?”

“We don’t care so much about that, we just need to ensure Zhou Yu’s safety first.” Having said that, Lu Yi immediately called the other three students in the restaurant to ask them to move.

Two male students and one female student immediately paid the bill and hurried towards the fourth floor cinema.

They took the escalator but saw Zhou Yu in the sightseeing elevator coming down from the fourth floor.

So, one of the classmates called Lu Yi immediately, “What’s going on?

Zhou Yu is taking the elevator alone.

We didn’t see Gu Fan and the others with him.

What happened to Zhou Yu?

Where is he going?

Why isn’t he waiting for the others?”

Jie was stunned for a while: “Could it be that Zhou Yu is taking risks?

Doesn’t he fear…”

“What the hell is this guy thinking?” Lu Yi hurriedly dialed Zhou Yu’s number, but found his phone was turned off.

An ominous sensation chilled her.

“Wait, wait, I think I remember, the man wearing sunglasses and a suit, he’s the one who followed me when we were returning from our trip.
