48 Hours a Day

Chapter 1006: A Relaxing Night

Feng Zi could clearly see the four men wearing exoskeletons entering through the mall’s east gate from the hotel rooftop. After that, they broke the window on the third floor, came out of it, and landed on a flyover to the north. Immediately, they started to run as fast as they could.

Thanks to the powerful enhancements the exoskeleton provided, they ran in excess of sixty kilometers per hour. Whether it was a convenience store or apartment building, nothing could slow them down.

Feng Zi kept observing them with the binoculars, and she didn’t even dare blink, afraid she might lose them. But even so, the targets were moving so fast; she would probably lose sight of them in approximately three minutes.

And Zhang Heng never told her what to do when something like this happened. So the safest thing she could do was to stay on the hotel’s rooftop and observe the four special operations team members until they were gone. After that, she could tell Zhang Heng which direction they were headed in.

However, Feng Zi hesitated. In the end, she did not stick with the safest option. Instead, she quickly put the binoculars back into her backpack and ran downstairs along the fire escape to the parking lot on the side of the hotel and found a shared car. She pulled the door, entered the driving seat, and quickly fastened the seat belt.

She then pointed at the camera inside the car with her right hand. However, when Feng Zi saw her bare wrist, she could not help but swear. Everything happened so fast. When she hurriedly got down from the roof, she forgot that she had handed her bracelet to Zhang Heng at the night market. Now, she could only use the handheld computer she found in the apartment to contact Zhang Heng. The handheld didn’t contain her ID information. Hence, the emergency response team would not be able to track her.

Using the shared car would be impossible without the bracelet. Just when desperation hit Feng Zi, she saw a red new energy vehicle coming in and parking in the lot next to hers. Then, a man dressed as a company executive came out the driver’s side, walked around to the other end of the car, and opened the door.

A girl, young enough to be his daughter, dressed in a bunny suit, stepped out of the seat, put her hand in the man’s hand, and giggled.

The next second, the man’s expression stiffened, and he fell to the ground. Behind him stood a Lolita lady carrying a brick. Stupefied for three seconds, the bunny girl asked, “Are you here to steal my customer?”

“No. I’m here to rob him.” Feng Zi then took out the homemade laser gun, pointed it at the bunny girl, and ordered, “Move him into the passenger seat.”

Still having not entirely figured out the situation, the bunny girl stood motionless.

So, the next moment, Feng Zi squeezed the trigger without hesitation, burning one of the bunny ears. Spooked to the bone, she hurriedly took off the headgear, bent down, and used all her strength to carry the man into the car.

At the same time, Feng Zi, who was racing against time on the other side, was already in the driver’s seat, unlocking the bracelet with the man’s finger. She then started the car with the bracelet. Then, said to the bunny girl beside her, “He has something to do tonight. I’m afraid he can’t have fun with you. Although this is force majeure, you’d better refund half the money he paid you. Although the transaction couldn’t be completed, you still honored the deal by being honest. Other than that, you are not allowed to discriminate against Lolita. We are both not in the same line of work!”

After Feng Zi stepped on the gas, the car rushed backward and almost hit another car behind it. Fortunately, Feng Zi was quick enough to grab the wheel to steer the car away. Still, she accidentally hit another car when she drove towards the exit.

After such a long delay, Feng Zi completely lost track of the four special operations team members. Fortunately, she didn’t intend to follow them. Zhang Heng had warned her more than once about it. The two groups of forces that she observed tonight were extremely dangerous people. She had also watched the fierce battle unfold before her.

Whether it was the special operations team or the emergency response team, Feng Zi always made sure to keep a safe distance. And she did not intend to do otherwise. Hence, she was going to follow the police cars.

The current situation was that the four members of the special operations squad ran away from the emergency response team. Except for that one response team member who got injured in the previous battle, the team had four members going after them. The federal police did not act that fast, but with 0’s lead, they were not worried that they would lose the targets.

As for Feng Zi, she followed the last police car, driving as carefully as she could.

Since she was afraid of being discovered, Feng Zi did not dare get too close. Fortunately, the beacons of the patrol car were flashing, which made it quite conspicuous on the road.

Feng Zi felt the adventurous blood in her veins boil. Holding the wheel with one hand, and pulling the man over with the other, she confirmed the owner’s authority through an iris scan and shared the car’s real-time position with Zhang Heng.

After doing all that, Feng Zi felt her body was heating up, so she took off her upper bodysuit and threw it out of the window. When she turned around, she saw the man that she knocked out earlier staring at her. The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and the man asked with some doubt. “Why are you changing? And we are already at the hotel? Why are you driving my car?”

“Sorry. Your car has been requisitioned by me.” Feng Zi blinked at him and put on a sullen smile,” and your fun night has also been canceled.”

Feng Zi then kicked the man’s chin. Worried that one kick wasn’t going to be enough, she kicked him two more times. In the end, the latter passed out again.

When Feng Zi turned her gaze to the front again, she realized that the police car was nowhere to be found. Frowning, she stepped on the accelerator again, trying to go ahead to see what had happened.

If Zhang Heng were here, he would’ve definitely reminded Feng Zi that such a thing happened because the enemies wanted to know if they were being followed. Unfortunately, Feng Zi was only a repair shop worker. She wouldn’t know about such things.

When she sped up, she suddenly saw the two police cars in her rearview mirror. They suddenly appeared from behind a large truck with their lights turned off, rushing toward her from the left and right.
