But the next second, Zhuang Han couldn’t smile anymore and blurted out, “Dad, my car is out of control!”
“What?” Zhuang Jincheng was startled.
The father and son tried to turn the steering wheel and step on the brakes, but it was no use. The car was taking them through the crowded city and constantly changing routes towards the suburbs.
There were fewer and fewer skyscrapers on both sides of the road, pedestrians and traffic were gradually disappearing, and the surrounding scenery had become strange and desolate.
“This is the national highway to G97!” Realizing this, Zhuang Han was struck by lightning and immediately screamed, “Dad, call the police! If we drive any further, there will be a broken bridge ahead!”
Zhuang Jincheng was stunned for a long time before he took out his cell phone but found that there was no signal at all. He then took out his son’s cell phone, and the same situation occurred.
“There’s no signal on my cell phone!” he said in a cold sweat.
“Our phones have been hacked! I just passed by a base station, the signal should be full.” Zhuang Han said confidently: “It’s Zhuang Li! He wants to kill me!”
“Why? He can’t be so cruel!” Zhuang Jincheng had collapsed in his seat. As the speed of the car continued to increase, he lost the ability to breathe and his heart ached.
It was not until this moment that he vaguely realized that his eldest son’s last car accident and Mr. Shao’s death might not have been accidents.
Zhuang Han avoided answering this question but hurriedly ordered: “Take off your shirt quickly, before the car enters the no-man’s land, we can call for help!”
As he spoke, he took off his white shirt, stretched out his hand out of the car window and waved at the pedestrians and cars passing by on both sides of the road, shouting: “Call 110, call 110, our car is out of control! Call 110!”
Zhuang Jincheng also struggled to sit up, took off his white shirt and held it out the window.
Zhuang Han was an AI technician, not a mechanic, and didn’t know much about the internal structure of a car, so he could not imitate Zhuang Li’s self-rescue measures.
It was not until this moment that he realized that Zhuang Li knew so much!
The father and son leaned half of their bodies out of the window, waving their white shirts wildly and shouting.
Zhuang Han used the same method to murder Zhuang Li, so he could react quickly. But Zhuang Li didn’t know that the car had gone out of control because of human error. He was always debugging the system, steering the wheel, and stepping on the brakes, fearing that he would get into an accident if he was distracted.
So he didn’t dare to lean forward and shout for help like Zhuang Han did, and thus missed his last chance of survival.
Zhuang Han was lucky. Pedestrians and vehicles on the road heard his shouting and quickly took out their mobile phones to call the police.
Zong Zhengming, who was closely following the Zhuang family, was the first to learn of this warning.
It was the same National Highway G97, and the car had gone out of control in the same way. Combined with the fact that Xiao Curly had demonstrated some of the best IT skills in the world, he couldn’t help but think of the worst.
“Prepare the car and go to the Shao family’s old house immediately!” In his haste, Zong Zhengming even forgot to put on his coat.
Half an hour later, Zong Zhengming arrived at the Shao family’s old house. The police station transmitted the aerial footage to his mobile phone, allowing him to keep track of the case at all times. Zhuang Han’s car had entered the no-man’s land, with police cars on both sides, but they could not find a good solution. Soon, the Broken Bridge would be reached, and a little further ahead was a deep abyss.
Zong Zhengming pushed open the door, strode into the study, and said in a deep voice: “Stop the car!”
Zhuang Li sat on the swivel chair and asked with a smile: “Uncle Zong, what are you talking about? Why don’t I understand?”
“You understand me. I said, stop the car!” Zong Zhengming placed his mobile phone on the table and pointed at the speeding car on the screen.
Zhuang Li tilted his head slightly with an innocent expression: “What will you do if I don’t let it stop?” He actually admitted it openly.
Zong Zhengming was stunned by the question and his mind went blank.
Yes, what would he do if Xiao Curly didn’t stop the murder?
As the executive officer of this country, as the person who made laws and enacted policies, at this moment, he did not even think about upholding the dignity of the law, nor did he think about handing Xiao Curly over to the police, nor did he reveal his suspicions to anyone.
There was only one thought in his mind – to protect this person!
Zhuang Li looked at his lover’s confused face, then finally smiled comfortably with his eyes narrowed.
He stood up and slowly walked to Zong Zhengming. He gently untied his tie with his slender fingertips and slowly put it on his wrist. He then whispered in his ear, “Uncle Zong, are you going to arrest me? Like this?”
The black tie was wrapped around the snow-white skin, the pale blue blood vessels exuded fragrance as they pulsated, and there were waves of slightly itchy heat blowing by the ears. All of this was like a beautiful dream, making Zong Zhengming confused and unable to suppress the dual throbbing of his body and mind.
He really wanted to hug the man in front of him regardless of everything, kiss his seductive red lips fiercely, and then do whatever he wanted…
Just before his sanity was about to collapse, these tempting images were abruptly shattered by Zong Zhengming.
He held the little curly-haired boy’s slender wrist, looked deeply into his mysterious eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: “I know this world is very dirty, and I also know that you are angry, sad, and upset. I don’t want to force you to do anything, nor do I want to talk to you about the great principles of law and justice. My only wish is to protect you.”
He took a deep breath and said very seriously: “I just want you to live a beautiful and clean life. I will not watch you jump into the abyss. I came here just to save you, not for anyone else. Do you understand what I mean?”
Zong Zhengming lowered his eyes to look at the little curly-haired boy’s hands, and said in a hoarse voice, “These hands are so white, slender, clean and beautiful. They should be used to create the world, not to destroy life.”
“Listen to me,” Zong Zhengming let go of the curly-haired boy’s hand, and finally followed his heart. He held the boy in his arms, gently stroked his scalp, and said tenderly, “Stop it, okay?”
Zhuang Li was silent for a long time before he said in a hoarse voice, “Okay.”
I want to live a beautiful life – he once said this to his lover. At that time, it was just a careless joke, but he did not expect that it would be engraved in his lover’s soul which he remembered until now.
He shouldn’t have jumped into the abyss in order to take revenge on the monsters and got himself covered in filth for no reason. That would not be pretty at all.
“Uncle Zong, I’ll stop right away.” After saying this, Zhuang Li took out his mobile phone and pressed the pause button.
Zong Zhengming hugged the little curly-haired boy even tighter, praising him with pride and love: “Good boy.”
He finally understood why Mr. Shao doted on this person so much.
He also wanted to love, but this emotion that shouldn’t have arisen had completely gotten out of control.
