Hello.

On a highway, a black Mercedes-Benz car is speeding.

The driver was a man wearing a blue jacket. His face was sharp, but his complexion was pale and lifeless, devoid of any vitality. His entire face seemed dull and emotionless.

All the features on his face, save for a pair of lifeless, dead-fish white eyes, offered no hint of life.

Have you escaped successfully

The shadow's mind was racing, his eyes constantly darting to the rearview mirrors on either side. He watched the endless stream of cars, oblivious to anything unusual, sensing no terror from being watched by an unseen gaze.

This made him speak in a light, soft tone.

He was the Shadow, and after escaping from Jiang Hai University, he quickly got into a car parked on one side outside the school and drove away.

During his drive, he disguised himself by changing his appearance and putting on a new set of clothes.

Now, he, even if Shen Chenyu stood before him, I’m afraid he wouldn't recognize that he was the madman who had kidnapped her.

>>>>

The shadow drove cautiously on the highway, not rushing back to his residence. Instead, he sped along a high-speed road, changing routes several times along the way.

The shadow sped along the highway for an hour, until dusk approached and night fell.

Throughout this process, the Shadow didn't feel the danger of being tracked. If he truly believed he could sense it, as a killer, his self-awareness would be extremely confident.

Even the shadows knew that his operation had failed again. The Jianghai police would definitely take action, such as roadblocks and vehicle checks.

So, he needed to leave and return to his lonely, secluded dwelling to hide.

As for going out of the city, he hadn't considered it.

At this time, leaving the city is absolutely the most dangerous. The toll booths at the highway exits are definitely heavily guarded with layers of checkpoints.

So, the shadow swerved off an on-ramp and turned onto a main artery heading out to the suburbs, racing along it.

This time, failing to successfully abduct Shen Chenyu left Shadow feeling incredibly disappointed and despondent.

But being able to escape doesn't mean there won't be opportunities in the future.

The premise is that Shen Chenyu was not pierced by the dagger that was thrown at him.

He thought Ye Junlang would protect Shen Chenyu. At that moment, he threw Shen Chenyu to Ye Junlang and simultaneously flung a dagger, seemingly intending to assassinate Shen Chenyu, but it wasn't true.

His purpose was to have Ye Junlang save people, thus buying him more time to escape.

By this time, the shadow had already driven out of the main road and turned into a side road on the right. As he took a turn ahead on this side road, he would soon reach his hideout in the suburbs.

He was pondering whether to report today's events to his master.

He thought about it, but the shadow still decided to keep it a secret. This time he could endure the failure and wait. Until the storm passed, he would make his move again. At that time, he would ensure everything went perfectly and kidnap this woman to give to their master.

The moment this thought crossed his mind, his car also turned a corner. The instant the turn was made, a wave of coldness crept up from his feet to the top of his head, causing every hair on his body to stand on end. His body stiffened and became as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Ahead at the intersection, a behemoth of a vehicle, over 6 meters long and 26 meters tall, suddenly appeared. Its crimson body was encased in thick steel plating, its exterior rugged and ferocious, exuding an overwhelming aura of dominance. Under the night sky, it resembled a blood-soaked beast, silently lying in wait for its prey to arrive.

The Mercedes-Benz he was driving looked like nothing more than a toy in front of that behemoth, ready to be crushed at will.

Yikes!

Chapter 397: Prey and Predator (2/2)

The screech of brakes came to an abrupt halt.

The shadow had already slammed on the brakes, and the high-performance Mercedes-Benz immediately came to a halt. With a sharp turn of the steering wheel, the black Mercedes swerved and sped away in the opposite direction.

His face was ashen, beads of sweat trickling down his skin. His fish-like eyes were wide with terror, mixed with confusion and bewilderment.

It is he, Ye Junlang.

He had actually caught up to me — no, to be precise, he had anticipated my driving route and was waiting for me at the intersection.

The question is, how is that possible

If there are no gods in the world, how did he figure out his driving route

Coincidence

It's absolutely impossible. There's no such thing as a coincidence like that in the world.

The shadow couldn't understand, it couldn't figure out at all. All he could think about now was running, flooring the gas pedal and running away.

Boom!

At the intersection, the engine of that Paramount Predator, silently crouched like a beast, roared to life with a series of ear-splitting growls, as if proclaiming the awakening of a giant.

Ye Junlang sat inside the car, his eyes narrowed, like a tiger waking up.

The tiger opens its eyes and is about to kill.

He wasn't in a hurry to pursue, seeming to have already determined that the black Mercedes sedan couldn't escape his grasp.

As Ye Junlang stepped on the accelerator, this behemoth of an armored SUV sped forward into the vast night, chasing after them.

The absence of scent is actually the best scent, but also its most fatal weakness.

For an experienced hunter like Ye Junlang, as long as he grasped the characteristic of the shadow, it wouldn't be difficult to track it all the way.

Ye Junlang did not chase along the highway. He had already called Ding Rou and asked her to deploy police forces, setting up heavy checkpoints and security on the highway heading out of the city.

This move was just a precaution.

He speculated that the shadow wouldn't drive out of the city. Such a cruel and meticulous killer would certainly have considered the layers of security at the toll gates before leaving the city, waiting to ambush anyone who dared to pass through.

Therefore, Ye Junlang speculated that when the shadow confirmation was untracked, it would return and retrieve its hiding place.

Before, Ye Junlang judged that the Shadow's hiding place wouldn't be in the city but a remote area on the outskirts.

He looked up the route on this highway to the outskirts, and after passing a bend and following that road intersection forward, he drove to that intersection and waited there.

As expected, he waited for the shadow to fall into his trap.

This all seems simple but is actually quite difficult. It requires a sufficient understanding of the nature of shadows, as well as precise deduction and judgment, to achieve this.

There are a lot of vehicles on this road, cars can't drive fast at all.

Even though the shadow was overtaking him repeatedly, several times dangerously close, he still gradually heard the roar of the engine behind him growing louder and closer, like a giant beast.

Through the rearview mirror, one could also see the imposing figure of the giant bulletproof SUV that stood out from the rest.

The shadow gritted his teeth, a sinister coldness rising in his eyes. He knew he couldn't go any further on this road. With a turn of his head, he left the main road and took a fork.

The fork in the road leads to a suburban highway, with significantly less traffic.

Whew!

Behind, that Paramount Predator roared in knowledge, it didn't even need Ye Junlang to overtake. This behemoth was driving forward, and the vehicles ahead were all actively giving way. Such a mighty and domineering bulletproof SUV, just brushing against it casually, is something these ordinary family cars can withstand.

Ye Junlang turned his car at the fork and continued down the road, pursuing ahead.
