Chapter 16 Hot Noodles: What Are You Playing At!

"Officer Wang, Captain Song, with all this commotion, could Qi Yu have run away?"

Fang Xiaocao walked up to Wang Qiang and Song Lin, whispering.

Hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, both Wang Qiang and Song Lin were stunned.

"Who is Qi Yu?"

Wang Qiang asked, puzzled.

However, Song Lin's expression suddenly changed.

"Qi Yu is the murderer we have locked up here."

"You little brat, go catch him."

Song Lin yelled urgently.

"Yes!"

Wang Qiang instinctively replied.

He turned and ran towards the outside of the basement, shouting as he ran, "Criminal Investigation Team, follow me to catch him."

Fang Xiaocao glanced at the time on his phone.

19:48!

"Officer Wang, you could first visit the rental I stayed at before. Qi Yu's girlfriend is having a party there, he might go there."

Fang Xiaocao shouted to Wang Qiang.

"Alright, I got it."

Wang Qiang responded and led his team away hastily.

Soon, the clamor of police sirens could be heard from outside the building.

After Wang Qiang left, Fang Xiaocao thought about the confused look on Wang Qiang's face when he mentioned Qi Yu, and asked with concern, "Captain Song, does Officer Wang recognize Qi Yu?"

Upon hearing this, Song Lin was startled.

"Damn it, that kid doesn't know Qi Yu."

Song Lin slapped his thigh and exclaimed.

"Captain Song, don't move."

The firefighter preparing to cut in reminded helplessly.

"Captain Song, don't panic. I'll go and have a look."

Fang Xiaocao hurriedly comforted Song Lin, urging him not to be agitated.

"Okay, please do."

Song Lin nodded.

"Yes, Captain Song, don't worry."

Fang Xiaocao nodded, turned, and ran out of the basement.

"We must not let Qi Yu escape. He's still got major issues on him."

Song Lin yelled out loud.

"Alright―"

Fang Xiaocao replied.

Exiting room 102, Fang Xiaocao got into his car and drove off.

"Where's Qi Yu?"

Fang Xiaocao asked while driving, sending a voice message.

[The contact does not exist!]

"Damn it―"

Seeing the WeChat prompt, Fang Xiaocao cursed under his breath.

Putting the phone aside, Fang Xiaocao sped towards the rental's location.

Hot Noodles was out of reach, so he was on his own now. If Qi Yu were fleeing in panic, he would definitely take that Maserati.

When Fang Xiaocao drove within one street of the rental, a pink Maserati zipped past him like the wind.

Even if it knocked over pedestrians on the roadside, it didn't slow down in the slightest.

Fang Xiaocao didn't even think about it, he just floored it, chasing after the direction in which the Maserati had vanished.

At this moment, Fang Xiaocao had only one thought on his mind.

"That Maserati is Qi Yu's!"

"I can't let Qi Yu get away."

The speed of the BMW Mini, coupled with Fang Xiaocao's driving skill, was clearly not enough to catch up with the Maserati.

Luckily, it was rush hour.

The roads were congested with vehicles and pedestrians.

Many traffic lights were backed up with long lines.

Even if Qi Yu drove like a madman, after all, his car wasn't a tank; he couldn't plow through the traffic jammed ahead.

He could only rely on the fact that he was driving a luxury car, cutting through everywhere, betting that others wouldn't dare to hit him.

Fang Xiaocao's BMW Mini, being small and agile, seemed much more at ease in this congested traffic, and for a time, he didn't lose sight of Qi Yu.

Taking advantage of the slowed traffic and Qi Yu being trapped in it, unable to escape, Fang Xiaocao picked up his phone and dialed Wang Qiang's number.

"Officer Wang, I've encountered Qi Yu."

"I'm in my car following him right now."

As soon as the call connected, Fang Xiaocao hurriedly spoke.

Fang Xiaocao then reported her location, along with Qi Yu's car model and license plate number, before hanging up the phone.

Fang Xiaocao glanced at the navigation map; this road led to the university and the back mountain.

Thinking of what Song Lin had said, that Qi Yu had once kidnapped the neighboring sister Chen Hong, and had gone to the back mountain behind the university town to commit his crime, a thought arose in her heart: the back mountain, Qi Yu's secret base.

In the case of the missing female executive, besides Chen Hong, the victims had not been found, surely Qi Yu had hidden them, and this hiding spot for the bodies was very likely to be the back mountain.

Now, in his desperate flight, Qi Yu wanted to hide his tracks before the police reacted, and this hiding spot was definitely the best choice.

With these thoughts, Fang Xiaocao gritted her teeth, relied on her small car model, forcibly changed lanes and turned into a side road.

This side road led directly to the university.

It was the path Fang Xiaocao used to take when she went to school.

And it could also lead to the back mountain!

But the road was narrow, and most car models couldn't pass.

Fang Xiaocao knew that once the traffic was gone, she definitely couldn't catch up with Qi Yu, so she decided to go ahead and wait for Qi Yu up front.

[Ding Dong!]

Just then, Fang Xiaocao's phone rang.

Fang Xiaocao glanced at the phone screen.

It was a WeChat message!

Fang Xiaocao opened WeChat while driving.

[Hot Noodles: This is very dangerous!]

"I can't care about that now, I can't let Qi Yu get away," Xiaocao replied with a voice message.

[Hot Noodles: There's no reward for catching him, what are you risking your life for!]

"Aren't you still able to send me messages!" Fang Xiaocao replied casually with a voice message as she drove out of the side road and onto the main road.

Looking left and right to make sure Qi Yu's Maserati hadn't come out yet, she stopped at the side of the road to wait for him.

[Hot Noodles: What the hell are you playing at, I almost died!]

"Aren't you not dead?" Xiaocao responded nonchalantly.

"Vroom vroom vroom~"

The engine's roar filled her ears.

Fang Xiaocao looked up to see a pink Maserati speeding toward her.

It was Qi Yu, whom Fang Xiaocao had been waiting for!

Fang Xiaocao turned off her phone, bit her lip, her eyes showing a mix of determination and madness.

The next second, Fang Xiaocao slammed the accelerator.

The compact BMW Mini instantly sped up, charging head-on towards the Maserati.

The road was narrow, a one-way street.

It could not accommodate two cars side by side.

Fang Xiaocao was ready to risk her life with Qi Yu!

If she couldn't force Qi Yu to stop, then she'd crash into him.

Hot Noodles was still able to send messages to her.

This gave Fang Xiaocao a huge boost of confidence, she wouldn't die.

If she died, Hot Noodles would have stopped.

But since Hot Noodles was still alive, she wouldn't be in danger.

That made Fang Xiaocao even more determined.

As the distance closed in rapidly, Fang Xiaocao could even see Qi Yu's bloodshot eyes in the Maserati's driver's seat.

His eyes looked crazy, bloodthirsty, and violent!

Her body trembled constantly out of fear and tension, her feet involuntarily wanting to hit the brakes.

Fang Xiaocao, bit her lip and pushed the accelerator all the way down, closing her eyes.

"Let the storm come more violently!" Fang Xiaocao screamed.

"Bang!"

A loud noise erupted.

The airbags deployed!

Fang Xiaocao felt the world spinning around her.

Pain and dizziness hit her one after another.

Fang Xiaocao felt a tightness in her chest...

"Thank goodness I fastened the seat belt..."

With that thought flitting through her mind, Fang Xiaocao lost consciousness amid the encroaching dizziness.

In her confusion, the sound of frantic sirens and Wang Qiang's shouting reached her ears.

"Quick, to the hospital~"
