Chapter 563 - 574 Insight
Li Xinyue sat in Li Yifei’s car, initially focusing intently on the two vehicles of the criminals, but as Li Yifei drove at breakneck speed, nearly colliding with other cars several times, her heart leaped to her throat. Yet after a while, she noticed they were gradually falling behind the criminals’ vehicles and couldn’t help urging anxiously, "Brother Li, hurry up, we’re being left behind."
In a calm tone, Li Yifei said, "Now we need to let them think they’ve shaken off the police, only then will they make their next move. They can’t possibly keep driving these two police vans forever. If they don’t believe they’ve lost the police, they’ll just stay in these two vehicles. Even if they run out of gas and we manage to stop them, we still can’t do anything since they have hostages."
Li Xinyue, worried, asked, "But if we can’t catch up to them, what if they manage to get away later on?"
"They won’t, I know where they are heading," Li Yifei said with a faint smile on his face.
"You know?" Li Xinyue’s eyes widened in surprise.
Li Yifei nodded and explained, "Although it seems like they are just driving around aimlessly and taking different routes, no matter how much they twist and turn, they’ve never strayed far from Huafeng Street. There’s an automotive repair shop near Huafeng Street where two vans are parked--that’s where they are headed."
Li Xinyue stared at Li Yifei, astonished, and asked, "Brother Li, when did you figure that out?"
"Heh, I just guessed. Following them closely now is not very helpful. Let’s see if I’m right," Li Yifei chuckled, then abruptly swerved to stop an Audi A4 that had just pulled out from a gas station.
Li Yifei leapt out of the car, flashed an ID in front of the driver, and said, "Police business. I need to requisition your car."
The driver, a young man in his twenties, was taken aback. He didn’t get out of the car but instead tried nervously to roll up the window. An ordinary person would find it quite troubling to have their car commandeered by the police, and with so many scammers around these days, some even impersonating police, his instinct was to think that Li Yifei was trying to deceive him, intending to steal his car.
