Chapter 348
Shanlin Road, as the name suggests, is winding and twisting, like a giant python entrenched in the mountains.
The trees on the roadside swayed gently in the night wind, and the branches and leaves rubbed against each other, making a rustling sound, as if whispering some secrets. The moonlight fell through the gaps in the leaves, forming patches of mottled light and shadows on the ground, like a broken silver mirror, emitting a cold glow.
Everything seemed so calm, but this calmness often hides a crisis.
After the car drove steadily on the mountain road for a distance, the eldest cousin, relying on his many years of driving experience and keen intuition, felt something was wrong.
His eyes seemed to inadvertently sweep across the rearview mirror, but he found that the driving status of a car behind him was very suspicious.
The headlights of the car were looming in the dark, and the brightness seemed to be subtly adjusted with the changes in the surrounding environment. When the shadows of the trees on both sides of the road were thick, its headlights would be slightly dimmed, almost blending into the darkness; and when the moonlight briefly illuminated the road, the faint light could be captured.
The cousin was secretly alert in his heart. The behavior of this car was too strange. It was obviously not an ordinary vehicle.
He began to slow down and tried to let the other party pass, but the car always kept a certain distance, neither approaching nor overtaking.
Zhang Xing also clearly felt something was wrong at this time. He keenly noticed that something seemed to be approaching behind him.
So he slightly turned sideways and used his mutant eyes to stare at the rearview mirror of the car.
Soon, he found a black car following closely behind.
The speed of this car was controlled just right, always keeping a certain distance from their car, neither too close nor too far. When driving on a straight road, it will deliberately slow down and keep a little distance; but once it encounters a curve or a road section with obstructed vision, it will immediately speed up, quietly approach, and accurately calculate the best tracking distance.
This subtle behavior alerted Zhang Xing, and he realized that he was being followed.
The cousin also noticed this situation, and the two of them instantly entered a state of high alert.
Zhang Xing was secretly shocked, but he did not speak out immediately, but signaled his cousin with his eyes not to act rashly. The two exchanged glances tacitly, and then continued to observe the every move of the vehicle behind.
The mysterious car seemed to be very familiar with their whereabouts, and always kept a certain distance just right, neither losing nor attracting attention. Whenever it encountered some curves, the car would cleverly use the curvature of the road and the cover of the roadside trees, and only reveal a little outline of the car body for a brief moment.
Moreover, the part it exposed each time was different, making it difficult to capture its full appearance. This superb anti-reconnaissance technique was obviously carefully designed to prevent the target from discovering its complete body features.
Zhang Xing gently touched his cousin's arm, and the two looked at each other, knowing each other's intentions - they decided to play along and see what the car was trying to do.
So, the cousin pretended to be calm and continued to drive the car. His hands seemed to be resting on the steering wheel, but he was actually working hard, ready to deal with any possible emergencies.
Zhang Xing quietly paid attention to the surrounding environment, looking for opportunities to take advantage of.
The cousin's eyes became sharp, holding the steering wheel with both hands, and he decided to give the tracker a taste of his own medicine. He stepped hard on the accelerator, and the car rushed forward like a wild horse, and the speed increased instantly.
The car was like a ferocious cheetah galloping on the mountain road, and the roar of the engine echoed in the silent forest, as if announcing its existence to the enemy.
The car behind seemed to be frightened by the cousin's behavior, but soon regained its composure. They slightly accelerated, kept a certain distance, and followed the cousin's car slowly, like a group of cunning foxes, waiting for the best time to attack.
The cousin's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He knew that these stalkers had been hooked, and now he just needed to wait for the right opportunity to get rid of them.
There was a sharp turn ahead, and the cousin was secretly happy. This was the moment he had been waiting for. He made a quick judgment, stepped on the brakes suddenly, and skillfully used the handbrake and shifting skills to make the vehicle drift almost perfectly. The car body drew a beautiful and sharp arc on the mountain road, and the tires rubbed violently with the ground, making a sharp and piercing sound, which aroused an echo in the mountains and forests.
Zhang Xing held the handle tightly in the car, and his body tilted slightly as the vehicle drifted. His eyes were always fixed on the rearview mirror,Observing the reaction of the stalker.
The stalkers behind were obviously experienced and well-trained professionals. When the cousin suddenly braked and drifted, they did not show any panic. The mysterious car quickly slowed down and flexibly leaned to the side of the road, trying to hide its tracks with the help of the dense woods on the roadside.
The driver of the car was like a racing driver, precisely controlling the vehicle, skillfully making the body of the car perfectly overlap with the shadow of the trees, revealing only a very small part of the body, which was almost impossible to detect from the rearview mirror. This superb concealment skill is amazing. However, their abnormal behavior has aroused the vigilance of Zhang Xing and the cousin more strongly.
The cousin thought to himself: "The stalker does have some tricks!"
So he continued to drive the vehicle forward, while deliberately creating some seemingly irregular acceleration and deceleration movements, trying to disrupt the rhythm of the stalker and put him into chaos.
The stalker dealt with all this very carefully and his driving skills were also very skilled. Whenever the cousin speeds up, they will follow him immediately and always keep a certain distance; and when the cousin slows down, they can also adjust the speed in time, and they are also very clever to hide themselves with the surrounding environment.
The vehicle they drive on this winding mountain road is very free, as if it is completely integrated with the darkness.
After driving forward for a while, the cousin found a narrow place in front of him with poor visibility.
The trees on both sides of the road became more lush, and the moonlight was difficult to penetrate. There was a thin layer of fog on the ground, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty and danger of driving.
The cousin was moved and immediately slowed down the speed, allowing the car behind to slowly approach.
