Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 709: Slow Progress

"Whirring whirring……"

Hearing the shouting and footsteps coming from behind him, the older young man held his head high and charged forward without daring to stop for a second.

In the past few months since coming to Nevada, he has deeply realized the difference between this city and other cities.

Here, there are many desperate criminals who are responsible for killing people.

Maybe one day you just look at someone a few more times on the street and you will bring disaster upon yourself.

Gangs with backers are more brutal than each other.

If you go against them and fall into their hands, your final end will be either fodder or tree fertilizer, and it will be a luxury to keep your body intact.

The alley was not long, and as the young man was about to reach the exit of the alley, the burly man who was chasing him from behind slowed down and took out a pistol from his pocket.

  Snapped!

The convenience store owner who was running at the back slapped his gun-holding arm and said, "Stop shooting! Use a stun gun!"

“This isn’t the city…”

"Who should I ask if someone is beaten to death?"

"Oh yes."

The burly man suddenly realized what had happened and put the pistol back into his inner pocket, then pulled out a stun gun from his waist.

"Step aside!"

I heard a roar behind me.

The brothers immediately made way to ensure they were not on the trajectory.

The young man who was running for his life in front subconsciously glanced back when he heard this clear instruction.

"Fuck!"

It would have been fine if he hadn't looked, but when he saw someone behind him pointing a gun at him, the young man was frightened to death.

There was nothing in this alley and there was nothing that could be used as a shelter.

The young man could only grit his teeth and swing his legs desperately.

But it seemed like God was playing a joke on him.

When he was sprinting desperately to get out of the alley, two motorcycles blocked the exit of the alley.

Just when the young man was in despair, a roar of an engine came from the road.

Bang!

A second-hand Dodge suddenly rushed out from the left side, knocked two motorcycles away, and knocked away the people who had not had time to get off the motorcycle.

Before the feeling of surprise came to his heart, the scene he saw through the car window made the young man curse out loud again.

"Fuck fuck fuck!"

  boom!boom!boom!boom!

Ai Liang, who was sitting in the driver's seat, first fired several shots to burst the motorcycle tire, and then fired randomly at the alley behind the young man.

As soon as the gunshots rang out, some lay down, some half-crouched, and some ran slowly grabbed the waists of the people in front of them as cover. The thugs who were originally chasing them suddenly became a mess.

As Ai Liang emptied the magazine, he shouted to the young man, "Get in the car!"

The young man didn't have time to think about it. Since the other party didn't shoot him, at least the people in the car were not in the same group as the people behind him. He rushed to the side of the car.

He was so anxious that he didn't even open the car door, but just crawled in through the window, with his two thighs and half of his buttocks exposed and shaking.

The young man held onto the seat tightly with both hands and struggled to climb into the car: "Drive!"

"You don't need to rush me."

Ai Liang stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel sharply, disappearing around the corner of the street.

"Huh... Shit... I thought I'd end my life there today." The young man who survived the disaster stared at the rearview mirror, as if he was worried that the group of people behind him would catch up with him.

Then he touched his trouser pocket and after taking out his cell phone, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I blew out all their tires. They won't be able to catch up with us for a while." Ai Liang said without turning his head.

"Yeah, that's good."

The young man was completely relieved: "Thank you for what you did just now. I still don't know what to call you? By the way, my name is Li Yongming."

"…Hermit, let's just say he's a bounty hunter."

Ai Liang hesitated for a while, but still reported the code name he had come up with.

This behavior of the other party giving his real name while he gave his nickname made him feel a little ashamed for the first time in a long time.

"You're a local bounty hunter... By the way, was it okay to just shoot on the street?"

"They're planning to kill you, and you're still worried about this?"

"No, I'm talking about your problem. After all, it's shooting in the street."

"It's okay. The gun came from an illegal source. Besides, I haven't registered as a bounty hunter, so they can't find the cause." Ai Liang said seriously.

No, you buddy?

Li Yongming had a grumble stuck in his throat and subconsciously aimed at the pistol on Ai Liang's waist, not knowing what to say.

In response to this, he could only wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and laughed awkwardly: "Haha, that's good, that's good."

As for some of the issues revealed in Ai Liang's words... Li Yongming chose to ignore them.

"Stop talking about me, what about you?"

Ai Liang turned the topic to this familiar stranger, or to be more precise, his current face model: "Are you here to investigate that club as well? This is the first time I've seen such a wild investigation method."

"Hey, it was a complete accident. I was just planning to walk around the area to see if I could find a way out with those customers. Who knew their security guards were so wild and indiscriminately arrested passersby and beat them up when they got a little suspicious."

When he said this, Li Yongming felt a dull pain in his abdomen.

"Are all the gangs in Nevada City so brutal?"

"Let's not talk about that. How did you find this place, brother? Most people can't find out the exact location of the club. Judging from your posture, you must have been squatting nearby for a while."

After a few words, Li Yongming turned the topic to Ai Liang again.

But Ai Liang was not going to fall for this kind of probing, and said directly: "As for you, you must have gained something from being caught by them in the store. Don't tell me that you only got a beating. As the benefactor who saved your life, I can't be so reluctant to give up even this little bit of information."

  Are all people in Nevada so sharp-tongued?

Li Yongming forced a smile on his face and raised his phone to shake it: "Of course I did. During the fight, I took advantage of the chaos and stole their boss's phone. I believe I can dig out a lot of information from it. At the very least, I can find two phone numbers."

"I can share the intelligence I dug up with you, but you have to tell me your identity truthfully, at least let me know which side you are on."

Li Yongming put away his smile and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"I'll just stand on your side for now."

Ai Liang glanced at him and said, "If you don't intend to kill Pan Junyuan."

"Pan Junyuan? Do you know where he is? Is the club involved in this matter? I knew that the arson case was not as simple as it appeared!"

Li Yongming was very excited, as if he had been breathing for half an hour and finally let out a sneeze that was half-hidden by a lute.

Unlike Li Yongming's excitement, Ai Liang frowned: "Aren't you cooperating with the police? How come you don't even know this?"

"what do you not know?"

"Someone is trying to make a fuss about what happened to Pan Junyuan's family. We don't know who it is, but it's most likely a rival of the Fengqi Group. Pan Junyuan's house was burned down not because of a land dispute, but because someone in his family accidentally touched something of Xu Le's."

"You said that the mastermind behind the massacre was Xu Le?!" Li Yongming said in surprise.

"Who do you suspect?" Ai Liang asked back.
