Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 1612: Human Cannonball
Chapter 1612: Chapter 1612: Human Cannonball
By analyzing the road, determining the direction of vehicle travel, and imagining the collision and the ensuing crossfire between the two sides, plus the existence of a small path next to this shop.
"Let’s go check it out!" Prompted by Gu Fan’s idea, three of them entered the small path.
They walked at a leisurely pace, appearing very natural, but in fact, his eyes were extremely attentive — without moving his head, he scanned every brick and tile, making sure not to miss a single trace.
After a while, they indeed found traces of a firefight, which confirmed they were on the right track.
"Impressive!" Leng Feng admired Gu Fan once more. Although there was an element of luck, it was also based on sound judgment.
However, it wasn’t a time to celebrate as they encountered a fork in the road and found no clues to indicate which direction to go.
"Ah, this..." Gu Fan furrowed his brows; he didn’t know what to do next and decided to proceed by taking one of the paths and seeing where it led.
To their disappointment, this path was the wrong choice; no useful clues were in sight.
So Gu Fan, Lu Yi, and Leng Feng turned back and tried another path only to find that the leads ended there.
Lu Yi was dismayed, Leng Feng worried, while Gu Fan saw it as a good sign, thinking if they could find the target based on these clues, so could the enemy. Hence, the absence of clues might mean the female team member was actually safer.
Heartened by his words, Lu Yi and Leng Feng felt revitalized, agreeing with his perspective.
In the current situation, they needed to rethink their approach. Gu Fan asked Leng Feng how, if he were leading, he would use this area to evade pursuit and ensure their survival.
Leng Feng answered that their vehicle was wrecked, they were without transport and thus mobility was compromised. Moreover, the enemy knew their intention to head east and would have certainly intensified surveillance there, even reinforcing personnel along the city’s main exits.
Having analyzed various scenarios, Leng Feng deduced that those people must have found somewhere safe and nearby to hide.
The next question was, if Leng Feng were in charge, how would he choose a safe place for his team? It definitely wouldn’t be a hotel; that’s too exposed. Neither would it be an abandoned factory, as those are among the enemy’s prime areas to search.
Where then? Where could it be? Leng Feng thought hard and felt that the most likely places were unoccupied shops along the streets that appeared deserted and didn’t necessitate a search.
Gu Fan shook his head; there were too many surveillance cameras on the streets. If the female team member and her group wanted to shake off their pursuers, they had to choose a place with less monitoring. The priority was to find a location meeting those conditions and then search for any potential hiding spots from there.
Following Gu Fan’s logic, the three of them continued to search and indeed discovered a small, narrow path covered with greenery that obscured the sky, where surveillance cameras were limited in their effectiveness.
Most importantly, there were low walls on both sides of the road that were easy to climb over.
Thus, Gu Fan, Lu Yi, and Leng Feng decided to try their luck and climbed over the nearby wall, finding themselves in an old residential area. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
For some reason, as soon as Leng Feng stepped into this old neighborhood, he had a premonition that they would definitely discover something.
Gu Fan believed that wherever there is a residential area, there are businesses, and wherever there is business, there are shops. Where shops open, they also close. So they followed this train of thought in their search.
Lu Yi grabbed a passerby to ask if there was something like a convenience store nearby, intending to buy some items.
Guided by the passerby, the three immediately headed to the commercial street, only to be stunned upon arrival.
A fully armed squad was present on the commercial street, holding weapons and targeting a shop with a tightly shut door, shouting loudly.
The local residents, who were not accustomed to such a commotion, detoured around the area. They didn’t want to know what was happening; they just didn’t want to get involved.
Leng Feng felt an uneasy atmosphere and wanted to help, but Gu Fan stopped him, signaling with his eyes not to be impetuous as the situation was still uncertain.
"This..." Leng Feng also knew not to be hasty, but he was genuinely worried.
At this moment, the enemy breached the shop’s door and then threw tear gas inside, forcing the people out.
Leng Feng took a clear look and indeed, it was the female team member he was concerned about. He could no longer restrain himself and charged forward.
"Be careful!" The enemy instantly noticed the anomaly, turning their guns towards the charging Leng Feng.
Leng Feng ran while shooting back. He possessed Vajra Body Protection and ignored the bullets from the enemy, advancing with large strides. However, his bullets posed a lethal threat to the adversaries.
The enemy fired desperately but couldn’t stop Leng Feng’s advance. To them, Leng Feng seemed like a fierce beast charging at them.
With every step forward, Leng Feng fired a shot, and with every shot, an enemy was hit, the unstoppable momentum nearly scaring the enemy witless.
Gunshot after gunshot, after a round of fire exchange, one enemy after another fell, howling in pain on the ground.
Seeing that Leng Feng was about to resolve the situation alone, Lu Yi couldn’t help but say, "I just hope these gunshots won’t attract more enemies."
"I guarantee they will," said Gu Fan with a pessimistic look — firstly because it was highly likely, and secondly, because it was Lu Yi who said it, the doomsayer with a very effective curse.
Lu Yi’s curse was to fear something, speak of it, and then have it come true.
Just a short while later, a large group of enemies arrived, encircling Gu Fan, Lu Yi, and Leng Feng from both front and back directions.
"Oh my God, why didn’t you cover my mouth, Gu Fan? Do you enjoy this thrill?" Lu Yi’s complaints were clearly a shirking of responsibility, but Gu Fan remained unconcerned. With a single sweeping glance, he identified a direction for their breakout.
Gu Fan grabbed Lu Yi and, with lightning speed, charged towards the crowd of enemies, the energy in their wake forceful and imposing.
"Sorry, old friend, you’ll have to be a human bomb this time," Gu Fan said. Before Lu Yi could understand what was happening, he felt the world spinning as he was involuntarily thrown out, crashing into a group of enemies.
Given Gu Fan’s strength and the force of the throw, Lu Yi was like a cannonball flying into the crowd, knocking enemies over, disrupting their formation completely.
Many of the enemies laid on the ground groaning, their discomfort evident from the impact, and those who took a hard fall had buzzing heads and couldn’t stand up,
