Fairy Tail: I Am the God

The driver had no suspicions.

"No problem, it's my pleasure."

Leon said, "Let's drive, get on the highway!"

Half an hour later, the two looked back frequently, peering through the car window with serious expressions.

“Someone was following us in a car.”

The driver suddenly tensed up, staring at the rearview mirror and saying, "I can't see it!"

To avoid losing the driver's business, he tried his best to make the lie seem convincing.

Leon suddenly realized.

He said directly to the driver, "I've come up with a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

“Let’s change our clothes in the car. You wear your police uniform and keep driving forward without stopping. I’ll put on your clothes and get out of the car. We’ll drive through the woods and villages beside the highway, then over a mountain, and we’ll reach the nearby city. That way, we’ll shake them off.”

He was worried that the driver wouldn't dare to agree, so he deliberately tried to provoke him.

The driver was indeed fooled, patting his chest loudly.

The driver pulled the car over to the side of the road, and the two changed their clothes inside.

Leon got out of the car and disappeared down the street.

Everything went as he expected. The police tracked him down immediately through surveillance footage and established tight control along the roads leading out of the city, making escape impossible.

That poor driver, who only wanted to help him, ended up making him a fugitive instead.

After being stopped by the police, the driver confessed to everything.

After passing through the dense forest at the bottom of the slope, you will enter a village.

After passing through that village and crossing another hill, you will enter another village, which belongs to the neighboring city.

Leon stopped and quickly returned the way he came.

He had no intention of escaping the city; his actions were merely a feint to mislead the police.

A coal truck approached from a distance, slowing down sharply as it turned uphill.

at the same time.

He quickly crossed the ramp, preparing to enter a new section of the highway, a location he had carefully chosen where cars needed to slow down and where there were no surveillance cameras.

Nevertheless, climbing onto that moving truck would involve enormous risks.

He planned to leap up the moment the train passed, grab the carriage with both hands, climb onto the roof, and use a sharp stone he had just picked up to cut a hole and crawl into the coal pile.

Hiding inside the truck, he heard police sirens blaring as they passed by.

He knew he had succeeded. The police would never suspect that his elaborate escape was merely a cover for his true purpose... to remain in the city.

It wasn't that he was smarter than the police, but rather that the police didn't believe he was innocent.

Therefore, we cannot find his motives for escaping but paying respects, and choosing to stay.

The reason Liang stayed was simple: he had to investigate the truth.

Only by making the police believe that he has escaped the city can it obtain a relatively safe environment.

……

As the truck drove into the suburbs, he lifted the tarpaulin, and after confirming that no one was around, he jumped off the truck bed.

His first priority was to find a place to eat something and fill his stomach.

He hadn't eaten for two days, and his stomach was rumbling loudly.

Thinking of this, he felt extremely bitter. He wondered how a Level 6 Special Agent could have ended up like this.

A birthday party is being held in a two-story garden villa in the North Shore Rank House. The house is brightly lit and full of guests.

Chapter 980 Aimless Investigation

The buffet dinner was set up on a long table in the dining room, while barbecue was being continuously brought into the house from the courtyard.

Today is Mr. W's daughter.

Yes, that is, Xiaoman's birthday.

Actually, saying it was to celebrate their daughter's birthday was just a pretext; it was just an opportunity for the adults to hold a social event.

Xiaoman walked among the guests with a smile on her face; she was tall, slender, fair-skinned, and beautiful.

She wore a light yellow sweater and brown Armani casual trousers. Her black hair was shiny and slicked back, with a faint fragrance, giving her a very elegant look.

At first glance, she appears to be a woman of great taste.

She has been very successful over the years, starting her own company and making a lot of money.

Xiaoman glanced at the noisy living room.

"Many guests are currently unable to leave the house. Call me immediately if anything happens. I'll be here for a bit, then I'll find a chance to go out," he told the maid beside him.

Just then, Xiaoman's phone rang.

He hurriedly picked up the phone and said only a couple of words before his expression stiffened.

He glanced out the window instinctively, then quickly covered it up, saying, "I know, I'll go right away."

The wind was howling outside, and cell phones were silent on the street. Only a Sonny was parked on the side of the road.

Xiaoman walked out the gate, headed straight for the Nissan, opened the door, and got in.

It was a bright, sunny morning with a clear blue sky.

At 10:45, the police suddenly received a report. The command center immediately notified the police to send officers to the scene, and the area around the scene was quickly cordoned off with blue and white police tape.

The deceased was an 18-year-old girl.

The cause of death is unknown and is under investigation.

After two hours of questioning, the police still couldn't find any important clues.

Finally, the police brought in a female shop owner who ran a noodle shop right across from the deceased's house.

The proprietress replied, "I know this girl. We've known each other for many years. She and my husband used to work together in a factory. Later, she and a few others started some kind of organization, mainly helping international students obtain residency permits. Their office was right next to our travel agency!"

"But back then we were still in the WeChat Building, not here yet. Also, my husband and I are quite familiar with him."

The proprietress was quick to speak; before the police could even ask her anything, she had already told them everything.

Have you seen him recently?

The proprietress said, "I'm so busy doing the accounts here all day that I don't have time to see her, but she always greets me whenever she comes to my shop."

"Can you tell me what kind of person he is?"

"Yes, he's a very good person, and that's it. He doesn't talk much usually, um. Sometimes he even takes the initiative to help some poor people and children."

The police officer asked, "Do you know any more details about her?"

The proprietress thought for a moment and said, "We are familiar with each other, but we don't communicate much and we have very little time to talk."

The police questioned her for a long time but still couldn't find a clue, so they had to let the proprietress go home.

After asking around, I arrived at the restaurant around 2:00 PM, only to find it in complete chaos with no one in charge.

The employees were all complaining in the lobby about the lack of materials.

With the owner's wife suddenly disappearing, opening for business at noon is already a struggle, and if the owner doesn't reappear, opening in the evening is almost impossible.

Chapter 981 Chaotic City

Meanwhile, through their investigation, the police immediately printed out clear color photos of the deceased and showed them to those who knew him.

Due to various reasons such as price and environment, there are quite a few foreigners living in this place.

Looking around, the entire street is almost entirely lined with Asian shops, including restaurants, fast food outlets, grocery stores, clothing stores, video stores, Buddhist temples, and more—a truly dazzling array.

The street where the murder occurred is now completely closed off and surrounded by police cars.

A police officer received a report from a cleaner working at a shopping mall.

As usual, he went out to clean the streets at 6:30 in the morning when he suddenly found a person lying on the ground covered in blood. He immediately called the police.

By the time we arrived, the man had been dead for some time. Furthermore, his wallet, phone, and car keys were missing.

After asking around for a long time, we still couldn't find any clues.

……

at dusk.

Xiaoman came directly from school to the apartment.

He wanted to invite Su Lei to his house for dinner, but Su Lei tried her best to decline. In the end, she was pulled away by someone else.

Xiaoman's father had already finished get off work and was cooking while wearing an apron.

After chatting for a while, Xiaoman returned to her room.
