Getting the best from Tarkov
Chapter 84: Kidnapped Again
Before I knew it, another month had passed.
Liao Fan's life has not changed much recently because of Yang Xue's departure.
If we have to say the difference, it may be that Du Jie has always appeared in Liao Fan's sight intentionally or unintentionally recently.
Sometimes we go shopping in the mall, sometimes we just stroll along the street.
Anyway, Liao Fan would always run into her every now and then.
There was even a time when Liao Fan and Tang Yunong were having dinner, when she came over intentionally or unintentionally.
Just like today.
At this time, Liao Fan had just hung up the phone with Tang Yunong and had not yet had time to drive the car out of the parking lot when he saw a slim woman standing outside the passenger seat.
Rolling down the car window, Liao Fan first looked at the other person, then said helplessly: "Officer Du, have you been a little too relaxed lately? Don't you have any cases?"
Du Jie opened the car door very naturally and got in directly. Then she said casually, "Oh, don't mention it. The arson case at the beginning of the year hasn't been solved yet. I was thinking of having a relaxing May Day holiday, but someone died yesterday."
Hearing Du Jie's words, Liao Fan's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm as he glanced at her expression from the corner of his eye. Then, he pretended to be casual and asked, "Really? Why didn't I see any news about this online?"
"How could this be known to the media? But you should know this person."
"Who is it?"
"Xu Qian."
"Ah? She died? When did it happen?"
Seeing Liao Fan's expression as if he really didn't know, Du Jie felt confused: Could it be that it really had nothing to do with him?
But she still said casually: "Yes, it's her. We received a report yesterday that she died in the suburbs of Changzhou."
"Changzhou? Why is she going there? Her hometown is not there."
Judging from Liao Fan's reaction, it seemed like he really didn't know about this. Du Jie hesitated for a long time, and after saying a few perfunctory words, she didn't continue talking about this matter. Instead, she started chatting with Liao Fan as usual.
Seeing that Du Jie no longer continued to test him, Liao Fan started the car as usual and drove her towards her home.
This has almost become a tacit understanding between the two.
Every time they met, Du Jie would take Liao Fan's car home. Once, Tang Yunong saw this and joked with Liao Fan about it, saying that he was a scumbag and that he had hooked up with another beautiful woman as soon as Yang Xue went to Hong Kong.
The car was driving smoothly as usual on the main road in the city. After this period of contact, although the two were still wary of each other, they had unknowingly developed some strange feelings.
If we talk about friendship, the two of them are strictly speaking in an opposing relationship, and if we talk about ambiguity, it's not quite the same.
But sometimes, in order to get some information out of her, Du Jie would take the initiative to do some slightly seductive actions, and Liao Fan, in order to cooperate, would show some expression that he was attracted to her from time to time.
Although both of them knew that the other was pretending, once this kind of thing happened too many times, it would always leave something in their hearts unconsciously.
Fortunately, one of them has a PhD in psychology and the other has experienced the baptism of bullets and guns, so they are not ordinary people.
If it were someone else, it would be hard to guarantee that no forbidden sparks would be created.
Originally, Liao Fan thought that today would be the same as usual. After sending Du Jie home, he could continue to do what he wanted.
As a result, when he turned the car into a small intersection and was about to bypass the main gate of the primary school in front, he accidentally came across a scene that made him furious.
I saw an ordinary van parked on the side of the road at the end of the small intersection, and next to the van, two men were carrying a slightly thin woman and her child into the van.
Although the van was more than 200 meters away from Liao Fan, both Liao Fan and Du Jie were not ordinary people.
Almost at the same time, both of them saw the scene over there. After looking at each other tacitly, Liao Fan stepped on the accelerator without saying a word.
The 6.0-liter V10 naturally aspirated engine suddenly let out a beast-like roar, and in an instant the entire car rushed out like an arrow.
The kidnappers in the distance had just pulled their target into the van when they suddenly heard a noise coming from the side. The driver subconsciously turned his head and saw a white light that rushed in front of him in almost an instant.
This scene really scared the driver. Almost subconsciously, he stepped on the accelerator and the van rushed out in an instant. The two men who were trying to squeeze people into the van would have been almost thrown out of the car if someone in the car had not pulled them.
It was a coincidence that just as Liao Fan's R8 was approaching and about to slow down, the van on the opposite side started and drove away.
As a result, this deceleration and acceleration actually allowed the other party to escape from the front of Liao Fan's car.
Not only that, it also left a large scratch on the front fender of the R8.
Seeing that he failed to stop him, Liao Fan's face was embarrassed. He didn't dare to look at Du Jie's expression beside him, and quickly stepped on the accelerator to catch up.
But after driving out of the alley, Liao Fan was really overwhelmed. It turned out that there were many cars outside the alley.
Judging from the time, these are probably parents of students from the nearby school who are here to pick up their children.
At this time, the van in front didn't care about the safety of pedestrians on the roadside. It just stepped on the accelerator and ran forward. This saved Liao Fan a lot of trouble.
Seeing a van rushing towards them like crazy, the parents of students on the roadside hurriedly pulled their children to dodge.
Although the people dodged it, the electric bikes parked on the roadside could not be moved away quickly.
This is still a good thing for the van. As long as it is not a head-on collision, it will not affect the car's continued driving. It will only damage the bumper.
But this is not the case with Liao Fan.
The R8 has a very low chassis. Liao Fan would be frightened when he decelerated normally. Now, seeing the electric car in front of him being knocked over by the van, he broke out in a cold sweat.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at Du Jie, wanting to see if he could ask her to contact his colleagues and forget about his own affairs.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw Du Jie staring at the van in the distance with an anxious and worried look on her face.
Seeing this scene, Liao Fan felt a sense of guilt for no reason. Then he gritted his teeth, stepped on the accelerator and followed.
It seemed like a long time, but Liao Fan only hesitated for less than two seconds before the van in front of him opened up a distance of more than 100 meters.
Listening to the harsh friction sounds coming from outside the car from time to time, Liao Fan felt his heart bleeding.
I thought that after this trip, the car would probably need a major overhaul.
However, despite feeling heartbroken, Liao Fan did not ease up on the accelerator at all. Soon, the car chased the van out of the narrow road and onto the main road.
At the same time, a man's voice came from the phone in Du Jie's hand: "Hello? Officer Du, what's going on?"
"Immediately contact the police to set up a checkpoint at the intersection of xxx Road and xxx Road. A group of kidnappers are fleeing west along xxx Road in a white Hongguang. The license plate is Shanghai XXXXXX. I'm following them..."
Bang!
Before Du Jie could finish her words, she felt the whole car suddenly spin and rush towards the right front.
