Chapter 39

9 min read2,258 words

Buck was not surprised by such an incident happening to a rich person. Ordinary people could not understand the life of someone worth billions, living almost every day in an environment of being plotted against and threatened!

The probability of rich people encountering kidnapping, murder, or even car accidents is much higher than that of poor people.

It's like the high probability of beggars being bullied.

Being rich also comes at a cost.

Otherwise, why would there be so many bodyguards hired by the wealthy?

Of course, these thoughts did not delay Buck's actions. From the moment he caught a glimpse of the Volkswagen behind him to his reaction, it was just an instant. There was no hesitation, no stopping to observe. Having narrowly escaped death countless times, he relied on this almost instinctive reaction!

The electronic handbrake of the sports car was about to drift out from behind the truck, seemingly about to reverse, when Buck suddenly made a sharp steering wheel maneuver, like a dragon's tail. His right index finger pressed the electronic handbrake, and the sudden braking force made the car's rear end swing violently. Then, unlike a regular handbrake, the automatic handbrake disengaged, and his index finger immediately released it!

Below, his right foot was already pressing the accelerator and brake simultaneously with the toe and ball of his foot, like a seesaw, constantly switching between full acceleration and emergency braking to avoid the ABS pump locking the brake discs!

At the same time, he could see that a row of construction barriers was placed behind the oncoming lane, meaning the road was now closed. If he drove slowly, he would be stopped by these temporary barriers, and the Volkswagen would block him from behind, leaving him with no way to advance or retreat!

Three men were quickly walking from the front of the car toward this side, but whatever was happening here had nothing to do with Buck!

The ABS braking system and the vehicle stability system of the luxury sports car immediately began to intervene. Buck's actions were resisting the electronic equipment's takeover of the car's violent movements. To be honest, under such stunts, this high-end, sophisticated car was not very obedient, as too many electronic devices managed and controlled to prevent problems. However, Buck's rapid, repeated actions offset the commands from the electronic sensors, as most people would not use an electronically controlled car for drifting for even a moment.

In that instant, the nearly five-meter-long supercar performed a spot turn on the four-lane road!

This was an almost impossible maneuver, something only a professional stunt driver could accomplish!

The car's nose suddenly faced the somewhat stunned Volkswagen, like two duelists about to draw their guns and engage in a life-or-death battle!

According to Buck's plan, as long as he turned around unexpectedly, with the car's super acceleration, he could escape this bizarre scene. Even if it meant colliding with the Volkswagen, he had to break free. Once out, he would be safe. In the country, it probably wouldn't come to the point of machine guns and bombs surrounding him.

But he, who was accustomed to making such instinctive reactions for his employers, had forgotten that he had no employment contract with the girl behind him. He wouldn't even gain a bit of trust from Mu Chenfei!

Mu Chenfei, who had also undergone various emergency response training, almost screamed as the sports car turned. She was immediately thrown to the middle of the front seats by the huge inertia. The rear seats of this two-door, four-seat sports car were very narrow, and Mu Chenfei basically just turned around. Her left hand grabbed the headrest of the driver's seat, and her right hand quickly and nimbly reached over to grab the car key, turning it counterclockwise and pulling it out!

The sports car stalled!

The Maserati, which was just a second away from using the launch control to escape, suddenly stopped!

Just as the car had completed the drift turn and was almost at a standstill, the sports car quietly stalled!

Without losing control, without the tires screeching, without the car scraping, just as it was about to accelerate after the beautiful turn, Buck's fingers were already on the launch control button. With a puff, the sports car stopped, and the foolish girl immediately threw the car key out of the open window!

The former elite mercenary, with seven years of life-and-death combat experience, was stunned!

He had a fleeting thought that this woman might be crazy, or perhaps his nemesis. Was beauty really inversely proportional to intelligence?!

Buck never expected his weakness to be here!

But looking at the four men who had jumped out of the Volkswagen, Buck's reaction was to open the car door. Just as his hand touched the door lock, a cold gun was pressed to his temple through the open window, and a hand from the passenger side also opened the door!

Buck immediately recognized the crude cast-iron body of the gun as a low-quality imitation that could only fire one shot. But the metal bullet would still penetrate his brain upon firing!

"Hands! On the steering wheel! Get out!" The gun at his left temple moved slightly back as the hand reached to open the door. Buck was ready to push the door and strike, but the person on the passenger side did not rush in. Instead, he flipped the passenger seat: "Wait! Don't let him go to report... Get in the back!"

Whether getting out or getting in the back, Buck seemed to have no choice but to roll!

The two-door sports car, with the passenger seat back tilted, made it easy for the driver to move to the back. But before turning, the middle-aged man outside the passenger door, clearly the leader, said, "A stinky car washer, acting cool! Tie yourself up in the back!" He yanked the toothpick out of Buck's mouth and threw several large zip ties onto the seat!

The third man, who had come from the truck, picked up the Maserati key and quickly came over to push Buck to the back with the man who had been aiming the gun at him, starting the car.

In the narrow back seat, Buck almost collided with the stunned woman. Even with the dirty water, Buck still smelled the faint, top-tier perfume. With the zip ties in his hands, he braced himself against the back of the seat to avoid falling into her lap. He heard the girl's angry voice: "Uncle Cheng! Get him out!" It seemed Mu Chenfei still hadn't understood the situation!

The leader, who had squeezed in and was hitting Buck's lower back with the gun butt, sat in the passenger seat: "Sit down! Tie yourself up!" The only one who hadn't come in still aimed the gun at Buck!

Buck's bulk was too cumbersome in the narrow sports car, and not only did the three men feel threatened, but Buck himself also felt restricted. He could only barely turn and sit behind the driver. Suddenly, the middle-aged man in the passenger seat pulled out a knife and stabbed Buck's thigh!

This was a stab! Not a zip tie!

Buck barely restrained the urge to pounce!
