Urban Soldier Young Master

Chapter 57: Sliding onto the Streets


To be honest, when Tong Yaqi asked this question, she didn't have any hopes at all, but when she saw Chu Ge actually walking towards her, it was like seeing a lifeline, and her eyes lit up instantly.

"Chu Ge, do you have any medicine?"

"No."

Chu Ge said briefly, and Tong Yaqi's eyes, which had just brightened, dimmed immediately.

As the Chief Administrative Officer of Tianjiao Film and Television, Tong Yaqi regarded this job as her career. She didn't want any accidents to happen to the company. Like Qin Ruojing, she was a woman with a strong career ambition, hoping to see the company grow stronger bit by bit through her efforts.

However, at this moment, the company faced such a huge problem. She knew very well that if Hong Zude, the director of the city's broadcasting bureau, really died here, then this film and television company might be close to shutting down.

So, Tong Yaqi was in a very bad mood now, and when Chu Ge gave her hope, only to let that hope shatter, her mood turned even heavier, and she was filled with anger.

"If you don't have it, why are you here making things worse!"

Tong Yaqi said anxiously and angrily, turned around, and ran towards the office on the opposite side, pushing the door open with a bang.

Under questioning looks from behind, Chu Ge did not offer any explanation. He continued walking briskly out the door and immediately saw Qin Ruojing in the corridor, along with Hong Zude, whose face was pale and who was breathing heavily.

Though Chu Ge didn't know Hong Zude, judging by the situation, this person was clearly the leader here on inspection.

Chu Ge walked over with large strides, quickly patted Hong Zude a few times, then held his shoulders and pushed him against the wall with a bang, roughly like a veterinarian.

"Chairman, let him sit against the wall, everyone else stay back, I'm going to buy medicine, I'll be right back."

Chu Ge moved so quickly that the few people around hadn't even recovered from the shock he brought before he had already entered the stairwell.

Luo Heng, who was already in a foul mood, suddenly saw someone inexplicably rush over, pound on Hong Zude a few times without a word, and then turn around and leave. A flame of anger surged up instantly, but before he could speak, Chu Ge had left his sight.

"Who... who is he? Has he gone mad? How dare he..."

He glanced in the direction where Chu Ge disappeared, then turned around abruptly and, in a hoarse voice, questioned Qin Ruojing.

Qin Ruojing was also startled by Chu Ge's unexpected appearance. Looking at the somewhat flustered Luo Heng, she opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

However, before Luo Heng could finish his sentence, Hong Zude's broken voice suddenly came from behind, "He... he's... helping me..."

As soon as Hong Zude spoke, all eyes immediately turned to him, and everyone froze in place, unable to believe their eyes.

Just a moment ago, Hong Zude was breathing so heavily, but now his face actually had a hint of color? He could actually speak?

Perhaps because she had witnessed Chu Ge's magic more than once, Qin Ruojing was the first to come back to her senses. She immediately instructed those around to disperse, recalling Chu Ge's steady voice and determined gaze, a glimmer of hope once again emerged in her almost hopeless heart.

Even though, this time, she didn't have any confidence either, feeling that the hope was so slim.

While Qin Ruojing was silently praying in her heart, someone beside her suddenly said, "That idiot, this is the ninth floor, why didn't he take the elevator to go downstairs, he's wasting time!"

Qin Ruojing sighed and turned back with a forced calm, "Maybe, maybe he'll be faster taking the stairs."

And indeed, just as Qin Ruojing said, the time spent waiting for the elevator was enough for Chu Ge to reach the first floor.

Instead of stepping down each step, Chu Ge entered the stairwell, sat down sideways on the handrail, and slid down quickly as if on a slide. At every turn, he leaped from one handrail to the next.

When he passed the fourth floor, the two people smoking in the stairwell were stunned. Before they could get a clear look at Chu Ge's face, he was already out of sight, leaving them looking at each other in disbelief.

"Damn! Was that a person who just slid by?"

One person put the cigarette to their mouth but forgot to smoke, with an expression as if they had seen a ghost, dumbfoundedly asked.

"Seems like... it was?"

The other replied uncertainly, quickly leaning against the handrail to look down, but saw only empty railings and layer upon layer of stairs, with no trace of Chu Ge.

"Guess we were both seeing things, there's no one."

"I told you, even if someone used the stair rail as a slide, they couldn't possibly go that fast."

The two chuckled dryly, oddly continued smoking, while by this time, Chu Ge had already left the Tianjiao Group building.

When Chu Ge had just stepped out of the office, he initially intended to borrow a car from Qin Ruojing to buy medicine. However, upon seeing Hong Zude's condition, he immediately dismissed the idea.

The situation was not optimistic. The pats he administered earlier could only provide temporary relief and would not sustain Hong Zude for long. Driving out to get medicine would waste time if they encountered traffic congestion, no matter how skilled he was at driving.

And in the bustling city of Lidu, traffic jams were obviously commonplace.

As he stepped out of Tianjiao Group, his eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, and when he spotted a teenager playing with a skateboard, a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Excluding cars, Chu Ge initially considered using a bicycle for transportation, but since there was a skateboard, it was clearly a better option.

"Hey, little brother, sorry to borrow your skateboard for a bit. I'll be back in a few minutes."

Chu Ge strode to the street and stopped right in front of the teenager. Before the teenager could react, Chu Ge stepped onto his skateboard, causing the teenager to feel as if his body had become weightless, flying up like a seesaw.

"I..."

The teenager wanted to curse, "What the hell," but seeing Chu Ge's skateboarding stance, he swallowed the words and was utterly stunned. Even though he landed hard on his backside, the shock left him feeling no pain.

Initially, he prided himself as a skateboard expert, but when compared to this guy, he was simply nothing.

Normally, people start skateboarding by placing one foot on the board's front while the other foot pushes off the ground to move forward. Once the board gains speed, they stand with both feet on the board, swaying the hips and leaning the thighs side to side to move the board in a snake-like pattern.

Yet the person before him completely overturned his understanding of skateboarding.

After flipping the teenager into the air, Chu Ge immediately kicked the skateboard with force, sending it flying at a forty-five-degree angle towards the center of the road, like a plane taking off.

Then, Chu Ge's feet never stopped; he leaped over the guardrail and, at a speed comparable to an Olympic sprinter, charged into the road. In another jump, he landed precisely on the skateboard still mid-air, and then landed steadily on the ground, covering dozens of meters almost instantly.

Watching the figure of Chu Ge speeding alongside moving cars, the teenager without his skateboard took a while to come back to his senses. He rubbed his eyes vigorously and muttered, "What the hell!"

Earlier, he wanted to curse out of anger, but now he said it purely out of shock from what Chu Ge had done.

He never imagined skateboarding could be played like this. What kind of speed was this? How much courage did it take?

Sitting at the entrance of the Tianjiao Group, the teenager didn't stand up. Whether he could get his skateboard back was secondary; he primarily wanted to see if this madman could return alive.

With similar thoughts were the two security guards at the entrance of Tianjiao Group, whose eyes were almost popping out of their sockets and jaws nearly dropped to their feet after witnessing the scene.

In a silver convertible Ferrari speeding down the road, a fashionable young man was enjoying the sensation of speed brought by his beloved car, accompanied by a voluptuous and scantily clad girl whose long black hair was tousled wildly by the wind.

"Baby, how does this feel? Do you feel like you're about to take off?"

"It's thrilling! I'm about to fly!"

"Hahaha, that's right! Our speed is seventy miles per hour in the city!"

"Oh my gosh! Honey, you're amazing! In this bustling downtown, I bet there's no one else who dares to drive seventy miles per hour here!"

The young man's grin grew even more smug. The combination of an exquisite car and a beautiful girl, with the thrill of speed, made his blood boil.

But just then, a casual glance to the side froze the smug smile on his face, his expression turning as bizarre as could be.

To his left, there was actually someone skateboarding? Skateboarding in the middle of a road filled with cars?

He felt his mind buzz, jolting him as if he was either seeing ghosts or hallucinating.

Blinking blankly, he turned his gaze to the dashboard. Seventy miles per hour, right?

"Honey! The truck! Watch out!"

Just as he prepared to glance left again, a scream from the girl beside him snapped him back to reality.

He quickly turned forward and saw a heavy-duty truck carrying a container coming straight at them with great force. Cold sweat broke out instantly, and he swiftly adjusted the steering wheel, narrowly skimming past the truck.

And the spot where the truck sped past was exactly where he had just seen someone skateboarding.

Vaguely, he seemed to hear a cry full of fear.

And then, instinctively looking to the left, he saw a scene he would never forget in this lifetime.
