If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 462 Hot flashes
"They're coming," said the woman.

"...sooner or later, I had expected this day when I left there."

"I'll help you get rid of them, this is our territory."

"It's your place, not ours."

"Dom. Come on."

A black Dodge Charger was parked in a dark alley, the hustle and bustle of a bar in the distance faintly came from the exhaust fan rotating high in the alley, occasionally a mouse slipped through the stagnant water, and the reflection on the rippling water surface The profile of the tough guy behind the windshield and the woman in front of the car window with her head down and her hands on the roof.

"I should go." The man in the car lightly put his hands on the steering wheel and said softly, looking at the fire on the ground outside the alley.

"You don't know when you'll come back after leaving this time. Mia and Brian are looking for you when they heard that you escaped."

"Tell me you didn't tell them about me."

"I didn't have anything wrong. The family will solve it together. Isn't that what we agreed at the beginning? Don't take care of everything by yourself."

"No, it's different this time." The man shook his head. "I can't drag you into the water this time. You don't know what the enemy I'm facing. I don't want you to know these things. You just need to stay away. It's best not to follow I just need to get involved. Those guys have sharper noses than hyenas, and they can smell me from a long distance. It turns out that they have found them too, faster than I thought."

"Dom, you can't do this alone," she whispered. "There's nothing wrong with you."

"They won't listen, so I won't say it either." The man stretched out his hand, but then withdrew his hand after shaking his head slightly, as if afraid of something, "I saw two people in that car. I can feel The sense of danger that one of them gave me was something I had never felt before with the group that was chasing me and that said a lot, I trusted my instincts because it saved me Many times."

"Does your instinct tell you that you can make it out this time?"

"My intuition tells me that you must not be involved again this time. In fact, I shouldn't have come to you in the first place, but I will try my best to solve the next thing."

"This is New York, your home stadium, but even you feel reluctant?"

"I have a hunch that one of those couple is the best of the bunch. The best of the best, so I can't promise you anything, I'm just trying to be the best I can be."

"Let me try."

She paused for a long time, and said, "If you can't do it, you can go, I won't mess around, you know that."

"...don't do it to them," the man said, "don't, remember this, they're not ordinary people, just like me."

"I know." She took a deep breath, "Is there enough funds for the previous competitions? I still have enough money. I have some savings over the years. Although it is not much, it should make you easier on the road."

"Just let yourself take it easy." The man shook his head. "You and Brian can live smoothly and safely, which is more important to me. But the rest of my life will be on the road alone."

—

The bell on the bar rang, and Lin Nian and Lin Xian, who were sitting in front of the bar, stopped talking and turned their heads to look over.

"Damn it, is that your car at the door? Koenigsegg? What model, I've never seen this type in the market." Letty came back from the bar door, looked at Lin Nian and Lin Xian, who were watching from the bar, had happy smiles on their faces.

If it is said that the people who gathered here because of the racing car tonight are somewhat car-loving, then Letty’s people’s problems are cancer-level, there is no cure, they can’t walk when they see a good car on the road, The idea of ​​picking up the old business and doing a fucking vote will arise.

"It doesn't have an official name. It's the only one in the world. It's handcrafted and belongs to the batch of concept cars." Lin Nian stepped on a high-legged bar chair and looked at Letty with milk in his hands. 1.9 seconds, the modified rear wing and carbon fiber body are more suitable for fast cornering, isn’t this car enough to qualify for this event?”

"It's quite enough, but a ferocious beast always needs an experienced beast trainer, and neither of you seem to be able to control that beauty." Letty stood at the door and looked at Lin Nian and Lin Xian smiled and shook his head, "I really don't know where you got this car, if it was a few years earlier, I would have stolen your car while you were drinking. It's a pity that I have already washed my hands and quit gone."

"This car was lent to us by a very powerful friend. As for who drives this car, it only needs to be fast enough. In terms of speed, I have never lost to anyone." Lin Nian played He glanced up at Letty with his empty milk glass.

"But the track we compete on is not a regular track. Although your cars are great, you can't take advantage of this track at all." Letty reminded, "The venue of our race is not a race track, But the city of New York!"

"Run the city track?"

"Starting on the street outside the bar, starting from Brooklyn, crossing the Williamsburg Bridge, passing by New York University, the Empire State Building, then to the Metropolitan Museum, Columbia University, and then going off the Bronx Expressway to the Whitestone Bridge and back to Brooklyn , and finally take the Central Expressway all the way back to the starting point." Letty walked into the bar again, glanced at the photo frame on the counter, stretched out his hand and gently adjusted its position, sat on the chair again and looked at the two of them, " The route will be entered into the car GPS. Because there may be traffic jams on the established route, shortcuts are allowed, but you cannot deviate from the route by two blocks. If you are stopped by the police on the road, you are not allowed to disclose any news about the game, unless you are going to offend New York City All the gangsters here."

"Very fierce competition, the city circuit means that extreme situations will appear at any time. It is very challenging, and we want to join." Lin Nian nodded.

"Forget it." Letty paused, smiled and shook his head, "I don't know what you are here for, but it must not be for bonuses. I have met many people, and those people are greedy for money I know what the eyes of people who have desire for wealth look like. But I can't see any desire in your eyes. Since this is the case, I don't want to see you Take your life in."

"Nothing to talk about?" Lin Nian asked.

"No need to talk, I don't want the friend I just met to die on the road, you drive too good a car, the forces behind you may cause trouble for us gray area people, and we don't want to cause trouble "Letty spread her hands and looked at Lin Xian regretfully, "You guys have a really good car, I don't want this car to be destroyed on the road, this is my last attachment to a good car. You really don't have any If you need to participate in underground racing, listen to my advice and go back."

"It's hard to persuade you to die." Lin Xian smiled and lowered his head and bit the straw.

"You said you saw that we didn't come here for the bonus, so what else did you see in our eyes?" Lin Nian chewed what Letty said before, and gently stroked the wall of the cup.

"Nothing, I see nothing." Letty smiled and said, "I can't find the passion for racing in your eyes, I can't see anything in your eyes."

"No, you did see something." Lin Nian shook his head and put down the milk glass, and slid the milk glass on the table in front of Letty, the expression on his face finally became calm, not as relaxed as before, "So When you went out to look at the car just now, you would notify your accomplice that there is trouble coming to the door."

The noise in the bar is still there, the treble of "Elvis Presley" on the karaoke stand soars, and the tune continues to rise to the climax of the song, but the other side of the bar is so quiet that the sound of bubbles floating and shattering in the glass can be heard.

"."

Letty looked up at Lin Nian, Lin Xian sat there without moving, drinking his own non-alcoholic drink, while Lin Nian on the side just looked at him with his fists folded in front of him, with a calm expression as if nothing happened, As if it wasn't me who was speaking just now.

"Hey" Letty took a cup and wiped it, glanced at Lin Nian and then at Lin Xian, the smile on his face also slowly disappeared, and an inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes, "If I remember If you are wrong, you have been sitting here just now."

"Letty, right? I'm actually more interested in the photo frame behind you than the competition. Who is the man sitting next to you in it? I guess it's your husband?" Lin Nian approached the bar and pointed behind Letty "You have been out for a long time, did you go to see him? But why didn't I see such a person outside when I came in?"

"Maybe you missed it."

"No, my memory is very good. As long as I glimpsed it, I will never ignore it." Lin Nian shook his head, "You care about him? Is he here tonight?"

"Then it's none of your business." Letty wiped the glass and shook her head lightly, the smile on her face finally disappeared, and she breathed out, "I'm guessing right, you're not here tonight to compete or drink of."

"If we didn't talk about it, we are indeed here to compete." Lin Nian nodded and said, "But you are smarter than I thought, a good car, handsome men and women, coming to a bar at midnight is really some kind of car chase movie The plot of the movie is a criminal investigation film, and you know this. As you said, we don’t come for bonuses, we don’t come for racing cars, we always come for other things, and you know it in your heart , That's why we are so eager to reject our request to participate in the competition."

"Then I might invite the two of you out." Letty didn't answer Lin Nian's words, and put the cleaned cup on the table, her tone gradually turned cold.

Behind Lin Nian and Lin Xian, at some point, the singers on the main stage stopped singing, and the bar suddenly fell into silence, and their gradually cold conversation inevitably attracted other drinkers to look at The bar counter noticed what was about to happen here.

"Tell the truth, Letty." Lin Nian also ignored the atmosphere in the bar, stopped being hypocritical, and looked directly into the woman's eyes, "Where is he? Just outside the bar? Let him be caught without a fight." Maybe I'll send him back whole."

Lin Xian whistled softly, looked down at herself and didn't participate in this conversation anymore, because she probably knew what was going to happen next.

The word "complete" really touched the bottom line, and successfully provoked the nerves of the woman behind the bar. After a few seconds of silence, she got up and approached the bar. She pulled out an M92 pistol from under the bar and dialed it with her thumb. He opened the safety and pulled the breech of the gun, and slammed the muzzle against Lin Nian's forehead in front of the bar.

Lin Nian didn't dodge or take any action, but by his side, Lin Xian, with his head down, smashed the wine glass in his hand against the corner of the bar the moment Letty drew his gun, and grabbed the glass to hold him back. to Letty's neck.

At this time, Letty saw from the corner of her eye that this always gentle and intellectual girl no longer had the smile on her face before, but was replaced by calmness, which was so calm that it made people feel a little scary, and the glass shards were precisely pressed against the side of her neck. Artery, she drew a gun to kill Lin Nian, so Lin Xian was also ready to kill her, as long as she dared to move further, this girl would dare to insert glass shards into her artery.

Letty's drawing of the gun and the shattering of the wine glass were like a signal. Even if they didn't know what happened, the other drinking people in the bar all chose to stand in line, took out the pistol hidden in their bodies and aimed at the person in front of the bar. Boys and girls, the mechanical sounds of guns being loaded and safety releases resounded endlessly throughout the space.

"Say that word again, say that damn word again?" Letty ignored the crisis on his neck, and moved the hammer down with his thumb, saying word by word.

"Which word?" Lin Nian tilted his head, and the muzzle of the gun followed him. He looked at Letty and said lightly, "Complete?"

Letty put her thumb on the trigger in an instant, and pushed the muzzle of the gun forward, but she didn't fire. The fragments of the wine glass that was pressed on her neck also moved in a little bit, breaking her skin and bleeding out .

Under her gaze, Lin Nian also sat in place without moving, just looking at him like that, the expression on his face couldn't tell whether it was calm or silent mockery.
