In his line of sight, there was a man lying on a speeding skateboard. Clearly, this man had used this method to slip under the truck's chassis.
The next second, the man on the skateboard casually pushed himself up with both hands and stood back on the skateboard. The whole process was seamless, and his expression was calm as if he wasn't just skirting death but leisurely waiting for a red light.
Damn it... it's freaking unbelievable.
Even just witnessing this scene, the young man in the Ferrari felt a chill down his spine, his heart nearly pounding out of his chest. He slammed on the brakes, stopping the Ferrari at the roadside, and took several deep breaths to calm his almost horrifyingly tense mood.
The young man in the Ferrari hadn't seen a ghost nor was he hallucinating; the person he saw was indeed Chu Ge.
Chu Ge actually didn't want to skate down the middle of the roadway, not because of danger, but because it was indeed quite conspicuous.
However, he had no choice. The sidewalks on both sides were crowded with pedestrians, and comparatively, the vehicle lane allowed him to maximize his speed.
Amidst the truck driver's screams and curses, Chu Ge darted through the undercarriage of the approaching truck and continued to surpass BMWs, Mercedes, and Audis on his skateboard, charging towards the nearest drugstore, dash, dash, dash!
Lidu City Traffic Command Center, in the monitoring room.
Several on-duty traffic cops were chatting about the recent soccer game, occasionally glancing at the surveillance screens.
"Old Li, what do you think about tonight's quarter-finals, which team..."
A young traffic cop took a sip of tea, subconsciously glanced at the surveillance screen, and the rest of his sentence got stuck in his throat, his expression turning extremely odd as he rubbed his eyes hard.
The middle-aged traffic cop called Old Li noticed his colleague stopped halfway through his sentence, puzzled, he looked up. Seeing the other's strange expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Zhang, what's wrong?"
Xiao Zhang blinked, his eyes fixed on the surveillance screen at the next intersection, and uncertainly said, "I think... I think I saw someone speeding?"
Old Li couldn't help but chuckle; he'd been a traffic cop for so many years and it was the first time he'd heard of a "person" speeding.
"Xiao Zhang, we're traffic cops, haven't we seen speeding every day? What's the big fuss? Besides, shouldn't it be a car speeding?"
Xiao Zhang said, "Old Li, if I didn't see it wrong just now, at his speed, he should be at the next intersection soon. You'll know when you see it."
Though bewildered, Old Li, seeing Xiao Zhang's serious and strange expression, followed his gaze to the surveillance screen.
A few seconds later, when the surveillance screen showed a person skating through a red light, Old Li was also stunned.
Old Li, after all, was an experienced traffic cop of over a decade. He snapped back to reality after two seconds, exclaiming, "Damn! It really is a person! Shit, is this guy crazy? Skateboarding on the vehicle lane? Quickly call someone to stop him, isn't he just causing trouble for us?"
Suddenly awakened, Xiao Zhang replied, hastily pulling out his phone.
"Hello, Brother Song, there's a person speeding heading your way. Stop him quickly!"
The same amused voice of Old Li came through the phone, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by a speeding person? What's the license plate number? What type of vehicle?"
"It's really a person! A guy on a skateboard!"
Xiao Zhang waited a few seconds, and the phone went silent. Xiao Zhang urged anxiously, "Hello? Brother Song, did you hear me? Say something!"
A dry chuckle echoed in Xiao Zhang's ear, "Contact the next intersection. He's already passed my side."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhang nearly dropped his phone, blinking blankly, feeling an urge to curse.
This barely took any time at all, and that skater had passed another intersection? What speed is this, really? Is he playing with a skateboard or a glider?
The entire traffic command center was in a frenzy, turning chaotic within a minute, with laughter and exclamations echoing everywhere.
As one by one the traffic cops received notifications, first with amusement, then astonishment, and finally preparing like facing a great enemy, Chu Ge already saw the drugstore. He used his waist, hip, leg, and foot strength simultaneously to propel the skateboard into the air, directly flying into the drugstore's entrance. Amidst looks treating him as a monster, he quickly paid for the medicine and turned to leave.
Just tens of meters out of the drugstore, Chu Ge saw a white motorcycle speeding towards him, ridden by a uniformed traffic cop with a look of disbelief.
Though he felt it was a bit troublesome, Chu Ge had anticipated the cops would try to track him down; he just didn't expect they'd be so slow, only acting after he had already purchased the medicine.
Chu Ge grinned at the traffic cop, showing his neat white teeth, and brushed past him amidst the cop's dumbfounded gaze.
"Damn it! This lunatic! He even smiled at me! If he causes a crash later, let's see if he can still grin!"
Watching Chu Ge's back, the traffic cop cursed furiously in his heart, quickly turned his motorcycle around, and chased after Chu Ge rapidly.
Unfortunately, in Chu Ge's line of sight, he seemed like an unpredictable ghost, performing one unbelievable skateboard stunt after another. He would leap high or twist and turn, making the policeman's heart clench, and yet all he could do was watch helplessly as the distance between them grew.
"Damn it! Is he even human? Could that skateboard be some kind of disguised high-tech product? Its maneuverability is actually better than my motorcycle!"
Finally, the traffic cop lost track of Chu Ge, and couldn't help but feel like crying. He took out his radio.
"Reporting in, I've lost him! That kid is insane!"
There was no reproach over the radio, just a sympathetic and helpless response, "Got it."
The traffic command center issued new instructions, arranging for more than a dozen motorcycles and four Jettas to form two long rows, blocking the intersection that Chu Ge must pass through.
Even though they felt helpless and frustrated about it, they understood that if they didn't concentrate their forces and kept chasing this lunatic aimlessly, the result would only be him slipping away one by one. If that happened, it would be even more embarrassing.
In the surveillance room of the traffic command center, the atmosphere was incredibly tense. Everyone's eyes were glued to the monitors, silently praying that this madman wouldn't take a detour. Otherwise, this grand setup would become a huge joke.
As cops were nervously gathering their patrol cars at the intersection to set up defenses, passing vehicles and pedestrians in the vicinity were all filled with bewilderment.
Could it be that some big leader is coming, or some major wanted criminal is on the loose here? Never heard of it?
While people were glancing at each other, discussing in hushed tones, suddenly someone let out a gasp.
"Look there!"
When this exclamation was heard, people saw the large group of traffic cops at the intersection showing grave expressions, and they couldn't help but turn around to look.
A man was seen standing on a skateboard, rushing forward at an almost unbelievable speed, and beneath the skateboard, there was actually smoke coming out.
Seeing this, there was clearly only one explanation, the speed was too fast, the wheels underneath felt like they were about to catch fire.
"Holy shit, is this the legendary Invincible Fiery Wheel?"
"Damn, are all these cops really blocking him?"
"Who is this guy? Worth all these cops making such a fuss? Could it be a wanted criminal?"
"No way, if he was a wanted criminal, wouldn't it be the detectives blocking him instead?"
"Who cares, regardless of how cool he thinks he is, with these two big rows the cops have set up, unless he can fly over, he's definitely getting stopped."
"Here he comes, here he comes! Damn! He's still not slowing down? Is he crazy? If he crashes, he could die, right?"
Amidst the noise of chaotic discussions, Chu Ge's black hair was streaming behind him, his clothes flapping noisily, and he squinted his eyes, staring straight at the two large rows formed by over a dozen motorcycles and four Jettas in front of him. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Ah... these cops really think so highly of me? It's just skating faster, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?
Despite the bitter smile and speechlessness, Chu Ge's speed didn't drop. He knew if he didn't hurry back to Tianjiao Group, that leader from the city broadcasting bureau would definitely die!
If that old man died, it would be a fatal blow to the company Qin Ruojing painstakingly built.
Even if Qin Ruojing had the best argument in the world, she wouldn't be able to defend herself; she wouldn't have anywhere to explain her position.
When it came to people who had nothing to do with him, Chu Ge could ignore them. But when it came to Qin Ruojing's crisis, he couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
After all, Qin Ruojing was quite kind to him. Someone shows him a foot of respect, he'd at least pay it back with a foot and a half.
Closer and closer!
Accelerate, accelerate again!
"Stop! Stop! Are you insane?" Seeing Chu Ge rushing over, a traffic cop widened his eyes and shouted urgently!
Just as Chu Ge was about to hit a police motorcycle, a few girls turned pale in fright, covering their eyes with screams.
With the intake of sharp breaths and incredulous stares, Chu Ge smirked, and with a sudden burst of force from his waist, hips, and legs, his skateboard left the ground and soared high.
At the same time, the wheels of the skateboard finally couldn't withstand the stress, and bursting flames ignited above them.
