Chapter 4: The Out-of-control Taxi
The speeding taxi raced along the road in the night.
The speed was still increasing.
Seven minutes to the airport.
This was probably not a joke.
At this speed, no one without Ghost Domain Rainbow Transformation could possibly keep up.
In his memory, almost everyone in Taiping Ancient Town had a Ghost Domain.
But he truly didn’t know if they had Ghost Domain Rainbow Transformation ability.
However, from the situation, it was clear the other side hadn’t caught up to them.
They slowly let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the taxi’s engine roared, the speed heading straight above 250, although the taxi was shaking a bit, Lin Qian still trusted the driver.
The driver was no longer chatting with Lin Qian at this moment.
He stared dead ahead, fine beads of sweat seeping from his forehead.
Lin Qian didn’t notice the driver’s abnormality.
He had a lot on his mind at this moment.
If the people from Taiping Ancient Town really wouldn’t let him go, then even boarding a plane, he would die.
As long as he was still in Dayuan City, they could find him anytime.
The speed of traveling via Ghost Domain was extremely fast.
Suppose the people from Taiping Ancient Town were chasing him, but hadn’t caught up for now.
So, even if he reached the airport now, he couldn’t leave Dayuan City.
Question: In the situation of being chased by a Ghost Controller with a Ghost Domain, how could he survive leaving Dayuan City?
Fight?
Lin Qian sensed the ghost dormant within him.
Fight with what?
He was certain that as soon as he used the fierce ghost’s power, the other side would absolutely fight to the death to take him out.
No matter who from Taiping Ancient Town came, he couldn’t beat them.
Lin Qian furrowed his brows. How to break the situation?
With his strength, it was hard to escape.
Lin Qian pondered.
“Hey, young man, do you think your girlfriend will regret it after breaking up with you?”
The driver suddenly spoke up, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
Lin Qian was stunned. “What do you mean?”
Lin Qian turned his head to look at the driver, and his expression changed slightly.
The speedometer was heading toward 300.
“300? Driver, didn’t you say 200 was enough?”
At this speed, if something happened, whether he could survive would be a problem.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the fierce ghost’s power, but that he didn’t trust himself.
The driver wiped his cold sweat.
“Originally 200 would have been enough, but the brakes failed.”
The driver swallowed, his speech a bit stammering.
“Huh?”
Lin Qian’s pupils shrank sharply. “What the hell, are you kidding!”
“Hey, quickly call your girlfriend and settle your affairs.”
With that, the driver pulled out his mobile phone and quickly dialed a number.
“Hey, honey, it’s me. I might not make it back today. Listen, in the toilet tank, there’s a bank card from ICBC, password is your birthday, there’s 200,000 inside.”
“You take it and live well.”
“If you’re too lonely, find someone new, but remember, be good to our daughter.”
“Alright, that’s it.”
The call was hung up directly.
Lin Qian watched in stunned silence.
“Shouldn’t you be calling the police right now? What affairs are you settling!”
Hearing this, the driver suddenly reacted. Right, shouldn’t he be calling the police?
“Cough cough, I forgot. I’ll call right now!”
Soon the police call was connected.
“This is the 110 emergency center. How can we help?”
“Officer, my brakes have failed, I can’t stop.”
“My license plate is Jin AA 74965. I’m heading to the airport now, speed about to break 300, estimated five minutes to the airport vicinity.”
The driver quickly explained his situation.
“We’ll arrange rescue immediately. Don’t panic, hold steady on the steering wheel, try to head to the suburbs or the highway.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not panicked. I’m planning to take the highway. Notify the toll station to lift the bar.”
“Okay, we’ll notify the toll station right away.”
“Keep the line open on your end.”
“By the way, I have a passenger here.”
Hearing this, there was a slight silence on the other end, then, “Okay, we got it. We’ll arrange rescue as soon as possible.”
Lin Qian watched in a daze.
“Young man, relax. We have to trust them. Of course, you have to trust my technology too.”
The driver said, wiping his cold sweat.
Lin Qian fell silent.
Red and green lights flashed by one after another, speed already over 300, heading toward 330.
“Why take the highway?”
The suburbs were mostly big roads with few people.
On the contrary, the highway required passing a toll station, and the toll station lanes were very narrow.
At this speed, one slip-up and they’d crash into it.
“You think I don’t want to? Going to the suburbs requires turning, otherwise it’s straight into the city.”
“At our speed, going into the city is 100% disaster.”
“This highway is straight, the only difficulty is the toll station.”
“But I’m driving, passing the toll station is no problem.”
Lin Qian’s mouth twitched.
What logical reasoning.
“Is there a possibility we could drive into a nearby lake?”
The driver sighed upon hearing this, speaking gloomily, “There are no lakes nearby.”
Lin Qian: …
“Young man, hurry and call your girlfriend. We might not survive.”
Lin Qian was numb. What damn call?
He didn’t even have a mobile phone. What call?
“I didn’t bring my mobile phone.”
“Oh no, that’s it then. No chance to even say one last thing to your girlfriend.”
The driver said pityingly.
Lin Qian rubbed his forehead.
This driver uncle was genuinely optimistic.
Not just Lin Qian thought he was optimistic; the operator on the phone thought so too.
Actually, Lin Qian had a way to stop the car right now.
Just use supernatural power.
But he didn’t dare to bet.
He didn’t dare bet if he could survive once the car stopped.
The palpitations and unease he felt earlier in the car were still fresh in his mind.
There was definitely something following him from behind!
Definitely!
Taking the highway might be a good method.
Lin Qian glanced at the fuel gauge on the dashboard.
Full tank?
Lin Qian’s gaze shifted slightly. “Driver, how many kilometers can this car go on a full tank?”
“One thousand.” The driver said without hesitation.
“???” Lin Qian was full of question marks.
“Truth is, I’ve modified the fuel tank myself, guaranteed 100% one thousand kilometers, and if speed is steady, twelve or thirteen hundred is possible.”
The driver said extremely proudly.
Lin Qian fell silent. The fuel tank could be modified too?
At this moment, the operator on the phone had black lines all over her face.
Good grief, he even dared to modify the fuel tank. This driver was truly ignorant of the law!
But she didn’t dare say anything now, afraid of distracting the driver.
Full tank, 300 speed, one collision and 100% explosion.
This was no joke!
Under the night sky.
Two people not manifesting in reality stared dumbfounded as the taxi grew farther and farther ahead.
“You think we encountered a ghost taxi today?”
“Is this really a speed a taxi can reach?”
He Liansheng was numb. Having lived so long, it was his first time seeing a car that could outrun a Ghost Domain.
‘That car has lost control.’
He Liansheng looked at the faceless person’s head.
Seeing this, he finally felt some relief.
“And that car has been modified.”
The text on the faceless person’s head changed again.
He Liansheng’s mouth twitched.
He didn’t know much about cars, but he wasn’t completely ignorant.
What car, after modification, could go this fast?
