The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise Chapter 508 - Nanli Is In Trouble, And Fu Zhi Flies Into A Rage

Chapter 508: Nanli Is In Trouble, And Fu Zhi Flies Into A Rage

Fu Zhi took a look at the clock, and it was already 7:00 pm. However, Li Nanli had not called her yet, and she was worried about him.

Very soon, the game finished loading.

Fu Zi thought for a moment and decided to call Li Nanli, but he did not answer her call.

The official voice of the female customer service came out clearly through the loudspeaker, “The number you have dialed is switched off. Please try again later …”

‘This is strange.’

Li Nanli had never switched off his phone, and no matter how busy he was, he would always pick up her phone.

She became even more worried. After a short while, she tried to call him again but to no avail.

Inside the game, her teammates were shouting and screaming at her.

“Holy, Li Wan, where the h.e.l.l are you?”

“Don’t you know that you will be punished by G.o.d for remaining inactive in a game?”

“Is your boyfriend on the other side? Why are you not moving?”

“Are you a monster, Li Wan? This is a group fight, but you don’t want to help?”

Annoyed, Fu Zhi moved her mouse and exited the game, stunning her other four teammates.

“The h.e.l.l? Did she just exit the game?”

“Don’t ask me to play games with you again!”

Fu Zhi was not in the right mood to care about her four teammates that she abandoned.

She could not get through to Li Nanli and she did not have a good feeling about it. She rummaged through her contact list in WeChat, trying to look for Jiang Jinshu’s contact but she could not find it.

Then, she had just added Gu Yanqi on WeChat the last time they had a meal together, and she recalled that Gu Yanqi went to the banquet with Li Nanli.

She sent a voice message to Gu Yanqi.

One second… One minute… Ten minutes…

Ten minutes had pa.s.sed yet Gu Yanqi did not reply to her as well.

Leaving with no other alternatives, Fu Zhi called Gu Yanqi.

A melodious tune wafted into her ears, and it took roughly three minutes before the call was picked up.

“Gu—”

Before FU Zhi could say anything, a loud rumble came from the other side and a large area of abandoned houses collapsed in a heap, driving sparks and flames high into the night sky. The wind howled and whistled like a giant beast, while the screams and cries of people turned into nothingness after being swept away by the storm.

The sharp pain when a bullet entered Gu Yanqi’s body caused him to moaned in agony. Then, Fu Zhi heard someone roaring angrily, “Run! Young Master Gu! Run forward! Don’t look back!”

“This bunch of b*st*rd!”

“Team One, check your ammo and make sure everyone is there! Fall back! Everyone falls back!”

“Someone go get President Li!”

“Boom!”

Another explosion came, followed by Gu Yanqi’s ragged panting and oppressive cries of pain.

“Gu Yanqi!” She jerked up from her chair, pulled over her coat and the first-aid box before continuing, “Can you hear me? Gu Yanqi!”

“Yeah. I can hear you…” Gu Yanqi replied weakly, feeling a little disoriented. Everything had happened too fast. Before he could know anything, a bomb went off, and by the time he regained his senses, he was already in the middle of a war.

“Did you get shot, Gu Yanqi? Can you get a clean handkerchief or a clean cloth? Wrap it around your wound to stop the bleeding and prevent infection,” Fu Zhi instructed as she flung the first-aid kit into the car.

“Also, Gu Yanqi.”

The silverish sports car had a sleek, streamlined shape. When Fu Zhi started the car, although she looked calm on the surface, one could vaguely notice the panic in her voice when she was talking.

“Where is Li Nanli?”

“I don’t know. There are too many of them,” Gu Yanqi replied, gritting his teeth. Blood was oozing out of his wound and his face was ashen pale.

He followed Fu Zhi’s instructions and applied pressure on his wound with his handkerchief. “I was separated from Nanli. He should be with the other right now, but…”

The night sky was dark, and it was pebbled with a myriad of flickering stars.

Gu Yanqi leaned against a trunk and said, his voice h.o.a.ry and his breathing heavy. “You stay out of this. There’s nothing you can do even if you come, and I…”

Before Gu Yanqi could finish his sentence, his phone died.

“D*mn it!” The man cursed.

He wondered if Fu Zhi got the thing he said or not. Even if she did not get it, he was pretty certain that after seeing something like this, an ordinary person like her would not be foolish enough to come here alone.

That was the last thought Gu Yanqi had before the darkness consumed his mind.

On the mountainous road of Mount Qiu Ling.

The air was filled with screaming and cheering of joy. Scantily clad women and men and women kissing fiercely in front of luxury sports cars could be seen anywhere.

There were a number of rally cars in the parking lot of Mount Qiu Ling’s entrance.

The rallying compet.i.tion would be held in another week, and most of the partic.i.p.ants were getting pumped up. The reason they gathered up here was to flex the performance of their rally cars as well as to gauge the ability of their opponents before the real compet.i.tion started.

A hippie, who was supposed to be the organizer, picked up the microphone and shouted, “Welcome, welcome, welcome. I wish you all a good evening and welcome to the devil track of Myanmar, the highest hall of rally compet.i.tion for all racers, Mount Qiu Ling!

“There will be 12 teams partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion this time. Amongst them, there are The Brave Lions, ZT, Stormbringer, and SN…

“Many famous top-tier teams from home and abroad will start competing for the number one spot in three minutes! All racers, please be ready!”

The group of young ladies on the scene shouted even more loudly. Their left hand was tied with the team logo sash of the team they support.

The big screen at the start of the trail lit up.

“According to rules, a team can send out five cars, with each team starting three minutes apart. The race will begin… Now!”

As the words fell, the cars in the field sped by and the big screen pulled in onto the first group, The Brave Lions, the favorites team for the champions.h.i.+p.

Everyone was attracted to the big screen, and n.o.body noticed that a silver race car had entered the racing track.

There were many ninety-degree bends on the cliffs of Mount Qiu Ling, and since there were no protective measures, racing on Mount Qiu Ling was extremely dangerous. Although the organizer had dispatched three helicopters to secure the safety of the partic.i.p.ants, there would be no obstacles to slow the impact should a car was thrown off the cliff. As such, it was a compet.i.tion where everyone put their life at stake.
