America: Starting from collecting corpses, leveling up to godhood

"I have a car," Chen Ming said, pointing out the window.

"Just fifty meters away..."

"Driving a low-speed electric car?"

The girl rolled her eyes at Chen Ming, then squeezed into the driver's seat.

"By the time your beat-up Toyota picks up speed, we'll be riddled with bullets... This is a Dodge charger, not a grocery-getter!"

Before she finished speaking, she had already violently ripped off the protective plate with a "snap" and picked out two wires from the tangled mess.

"Sizzle—"

With a flash of electricity, the 5.7-liter V8 engine instantly roused itself, its beast-like roar echoing beneath the bridge.

From getting into the driver's seat to starting the engine, the whole process took less than ten seconds, leaving Chen Ming dumbfounded.

"All done... You're all yours now, baby."

The girl whistled and slid towards the passenger seat.

Just as Chen Ming was about to ask why, if they knew how to start a fire, they didn't drive a car, gunshots rang out at the convenience store entrance.

"Bang! Bang!"

The bullets struck the car door frame, sending sparks flying.

The two Mexican men had already thrown away their cigarette packs and were advancing while yelling and raising their guns.

Chen Ming immediately swallowed his questions and, before the girl could even move aside completely, crashed directly into the driver's seat.

Shift into gear and step directly into the accelerator.

"boom--!!"

The Dodge charger's large rear wheels spun violently in the floodwater, kicking up plumes of white smoke.

The sudden acceleration slammed Chen Ming into his seat, propelling the steel beast forward and quickly leaving the two Latinos far behind.

The windshield wipers were flailing wildly, and the speedometer jumped to 60 miles per hour in just a few seconds...

This is the V8, a romance that men can't resist.

Chen Ming only breathed a sigh of relief after the pursuers disappeared from his rearview mirror.

Taking advantage of the smooth road conditions, he looked at the passenger seat.

"I'm Chen Ming, Evans' student. And who are you? Why are you associated with the professor?"

"Sophia".

The girl propped her feet up on the center console and answered casually.

"A few hours ago, I was discussing a deal with this old guy about 'body'..."

"Body?" Chen Ming immediately perked up.

"Don't get jealous so quickly, handsome. Relax, it's not the kind of business you're thinking of..."

She took out a cigarette and put it in her mouth.

"Believe me, as a good student, it's better if you don't know the specifics."

Chen Ming wanted to ask more questions, but the passenger window suddenly shattered.

A bullet grazed Sofia's chest, tore through her clothes, and entered the center console, nearly hitting her.

"Fu*k!"

Sofia flinched in fright, and the cigarette she had just lit fell onto her lap.

"Why does everyone want to shoot me directly? Can't we try something gentler first?!"

Chen Ming's heart tightened, and he subconsciously swerved the steering wheel, making the car swerve, while glancing at the rearview mirror.

Through the rain, a motorcycle headlight was steadily approaching.

The pursuer was a black man riding a Kawasaki Ninja 400, who was crouching low and accelerating; he was clearly an accomplice of the two Mexican men.

Chen Ming didn't have time to think, and floored the accelerator again.

On an intercontinental highway, this V8 beast can easily outrun a small 400cc motorcycle behind it with just a floor press of the accelerator, leaving it completely unable to see its taillights.

But this is a neighborhood street in Los Angeles.

Narrow road surface, numerous speed bumps, and damn puddles...

The Dodge is like a big, clumsy elephant; every cornering is accompanied by violent skidding and swaying.

Chen Ming couldn't figure out the temperament of this high-horsepower rear-wheel-drive car at all. After more than a dozen sharp turns, the rear of the car swung around like it was dancing disco.

"vomit--"

Sofia, sitting in the passenger seat, was so shaken that she almost stepped on Chen Ming's face.

"Oh my god, you're making me want to throw up... Do you even know how to drive?!"

Chen Ming himself was also covered in sweat.

The nimble Kawasaki Ninja, like an eel, used its advantage on the curves to lower its body, not only avoiding being left behind but also continuously shortening the distance.

"He's reaching for a gun!"

Sofia screamed.

The black rider behind had lost patience, controlling the bike with one hand while reaching into his clothes with the other.

"You can't escape, this lousy road has too many twists and turns!"

"Slow down at the next intersection, and when he tries to overtake you by hugging the inside line, give him a good thrashing!"

"Are you crazy? I'm just a medical student! I've never done this kind of stunt before!" Chen Ming retorted loudly.

"I never said I would steal a car, but didn't I just do a great job?"

Sofia stared at the approaching motorcycle headlights and yelled in Chen Ming's ear.

"Listen, there's a first time for everything, like the first time on the operating table or the first time in bed... Grit your teeth, and you'll be good at it once you're done!"

"Just do it!!!"

Ok……

Chen Ming took a deep breath and revved the engine at the next T-junction, but then suddenly slowed down as he entered the turn.

The Black rider behind thought it was just a poor turn, so he instinctively lowered his bike and cut into the inside line, trying to close the gap completely with a shorter path.

But he didn't know that Chen Ming was watching him closely.

near...

It's now!

The steering wheel was violently slammed shut, and the two-ton steel body of the Dodge lost traction and swept out like a baseball bat.

"NO!!!"

The Black rider screamed in terror, but to no avail.

He was inside, there was no way to avoid it.

"boom--"

The Dodge's rear bumper slammed into the Kawasaki's flank.

The motorcycle flew out like an insect hit by a fly swatter, tumbling through the air before disappearing into the green belt and remaining motionless.

"Bingo!"

Sofia slapped the watch face repeatedly, her cheeks flushed from the surge of adrenaline.

"Well done! I knew you had talent!"

"Seriously, Chen, you should quit being a doctor. You should send your resume to the ASP (Arkansas State Police). Those crazy guys who play bumper cars on the highway would definitely love you..."

"You can save the champagne for later!"

Chen Ming shouted, interrupting Sophia, and gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, but he couldn't feel any feedback from the tires gripping the ground.

While that attack cleared out the pursuers, it also completely disrupted the vehicle's balance.

The slippery road surface, combined with the enormous inertia, caused this two-ton steel beast to completely lose control, spinning wildly on the road like a mad top.

Sofia's smile froze instantly.

"A generous gift of crabs—"

"Bang!!"

……

The first feeling upon regaining consciousness was pain, and the second was a salty taste in my mouth.

Chen Ming struggled to open his eyes, but what he saw was neither an airbag nor the roof of the car, but a patch of undulating white cotton cloth.

Right in the center was SpongeBob SquarePants, grinning with two big front teeth, moving up and down in front of Chen Ming's eyes in rhythm with his breathing.

"Have you seen enough?"

Sofia's voice came from the side.

"While I don't mind you appreciating my lingerie taste, could you please move your head away first? You're rubbing against me and it's tickling."
