Chapter 339

Alfred drove quickly toward the West District. At the same time, he opened the map and observedthe surroundings of the target location.

Lea transmitted the location to the smart system of the car and sent the address of the base toVincent, asking him to go to the base to help Ralph and the others first. Then she sent Quicksilver’slocation to Jason and Luke. Whereas Alfred shared the location with Craig.

Even at night, there was still a lot of traffic, and the road conditions were still okay.

The car sped out of the hospital and quickly onto the highway, heading straight for their destination.

In the car, Lea kept her eyes on Quicksilver’s location on the phone, and he remained stationary.Lea’s throat felt as if her throat was being constricted, making it hard to breathe.

Alfred told Quicksilver to walk toward a crowded place, but he hadn’t moved and was trapped at theoriginal spot.

In the big city bathed in endless neon lights, shadows loomed like countless lurking predators,waiting to attack at any

moment.

Every second counted with life hanging in the balance.

Lea’s gaze was fixed on the location displayed on her phone. The light from the screen reflectedinto her eyes, making them look deep and bright.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

After more than ten seconds, the red dot on the location suddenly moved a little, then stopped forsuddenly accelerating.

Judging by the speed, Quicksilver had gotten into a car.

As the location shifted, the map on the screen updated accordingly.

Lea took a deep breath and heaved a sigh of relief. “Onto the expressway, heading east.”

Alfred nodded and looked at the map on the smart system before turning the steering wheel.

Meanwhile, the location was shared with Craig, Jason, Luke, and the others.

a moment before

Lea kept her eyes on the moving red dot, knowing that as long as it kept moving, Quicksilver wasstill alive.

However, less than ten minutes later, the red dot suddenly stopped.

Lea’s breath hitched.

Alfred saw it too and gripped the steering wheel tightly. He had been driving at twice the usualspeed, pushing the car to its limits several times

Seeing that the entrance to the highway was just ahead, he desperately wanted to rush over tosave Quicksilver’s life. But the narrow intersection and heavy traffic forced him to slow down.

As soon as he reached the intersection, all the cars in front of him stopped, bringing his car to ahalt. Under the night sky, the long line of cars seemed endless.

Lea quickly swiped her screen, zooming out to see a bird’s eye view of the entire highway segmentvia the drone.

The situation on the road where the red dot was located became clear.

+51

The central divider of the two way road was damaged by a vehicle collision, causing a multi–carpileup and a massive traffic jam.

“Those people caused the accident and forced the car to stop, so Quicksilver wouldn’t be able toescape,” Lea said.

They were only about half a mile miles away from the location if the red dot..

Lea reached for the door, ready to get out and replace a way to rush over since it was a short distance.

“Lea!” Alfred grabbed her wrist and stopped her, “Craig and the others are on their way. They’ll befaster.”

Lea turned to look at him. Behind her, a blue flickering light shone through the car window, followedby the sound of sirens.

The police arrived on motorcycles because they couldn’t get through the congested road by cars.

There were more than a dozen police officers and many more who had been notified continued tohead over.

“There’s also a helicopter. Craig and the others are on it.” As soon as Alfred finished speaking, theroar of a helicopter came from the sky.

Right then, a police motorcycle zoomed past her window with a loud “whoosh“. It was Craig.

Lea’s pupils dilated as she looked at him in surprise.

The police officers arrived right after the accident had taken place. Even the helicopter had rushedover. Lea supposed they should have set off at the same time as them.

As the heir to the Andrews family, Alfred was certainly capable of mobilizing such manpower.However, after his dispute with Blake, he wasn’t allowed to use any family resources. Therefore,this was all achieved through his own means.

Being so competent and having come back to life more than two years ahead of Lea, he hasalready established his own influence.

The police’s swift action and their presence could deter the attackers. Therefore, Lea didn’t need torush over herself.

She heaved a sigh of relief and retracted her hand from the car door. Her previously taut nervesrelaxed, feeling significantly less anxious.

Alfred gave her a strong sense of security.

She felt incredibly fortunate to have someone to rely on. It was what it felt like to be supported,protected, and cherished.

Alfred let go of Lea’s hand, and she quickly shared Quicksilver’s location detected by the dronewith Alfred and Craig. Then, they sat in the car, waiting.

The car accident scene on the highway was chaotic, with various lights – headlights, streetlights,flashlights, emergency lights–forming a web of beams and shadows.

The painful cries of the injured, the grief of their family, and the anxious voices of the crowdintertwined, creating a scene of tragic disorder.

About 300 feet away from the accident, a taxi was trapped in the middle. Inside, a man gripped thesteering wheel, his sharp eyes peering ahead through thick glasses, sweat streaming down from histemples.

Quicksilver immediately understood that the car accident was meant to stop him from escaping.

His pursuers were just about 300 feet away from him. They had caused the crash and weresearching car by car for him.

As more people got out of their cars, the crowd around his vehide grew. Whenever someoneapproached, he held his breath to prevent himself from making a sound. He was so nervous that

his body became stiff.

“Bang!” Suddenly, the car in front crashed into the vehicle ahead and the door was pulled open.Quicksilver’s heart skipped a

beat

“Who are you? What are you doing?” the owner of the car asked the man who opened the dooranxiously. He had just bought his car on loan, and the crash had him furious.

“It’s nothing. Just be careful, the man said in a deep voice before walking away.

Just then, Quicksilver heard a dull thud and jerked his head around only to see a hand pressedagainst his window.

The hand, gloved in black, cast a dark shadow over the car in the dim light.

Quicksilver’s eyes widened in terror. His heart sank as if he had fallen into a bottomless pit.

He recognized that the person was one of the pursuers. They had a distinctive aura, like ruthlesskillers from beyond the

world.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!” The hand moved, gripping the door handle tightly.
