Chereads / THE MEMORY LOST IN SPACE / Chapter 19 - Speed Limit

Chapter 19 - Speed Limit

Two of them finished their meal and went to the parking building to pick up the car.

Lorraine inserted the parking card into the server while commenting: "The price is very expensive, but the real human greeted and cooked. The service is very considerate and the taste is well-deserved. The price is reasonable."   

After the server confirmed their identities, the conveyor belt moved, Qian Xu's flying car and Lorraine's flying car appeared on the driveway at the same time.   

Qian Xu's said: "Send me your address. I will escort you back."

"No, no. I can go back by myself. It's quite late now. Going back and forth will be too troublesome."   

Lorraine felt very guilty. Fortunately, Qian Xu did not insist.   

He accompanied Lorraine to her car: "Autopilot driving is not 100% safe. Learn to drive manually when you have time."   

Lorraine stood by the opened car door, she smiled, turned back, and was about to speak. Suddenly, Qian Xu held Lorraine's waist in his arm and protected Lorraine's head with another hand, pounced forward.   

Two people, one on top and one at the bottom, stacked together on the car seat, his body against her body and his cheek against her cheek. Lorraine's eyes widened and her face was confused: "You..."   

A bullet flew over Qian Xu's head and hit car's top.   

Lorraine came back to her senses, and immediately shouted: "Take off!"   

The intellectual Brain received command from the owner and automatically swiping closed the car door. The remaining bullets were blocked outside, causing the cling-clang noises.

The flying car staggered while starting to lift into the air. A black flying car flew over in a rampage. The intellectual Brain's settings were always safety first. It issued instructions to dodge immediately. The flying car headed down, but the black flying car kept crashing into Lorraine's flying car without slowing down.

"Sit tight!"   

Qian Xu turned over and sat up. He turned on the manual driving mode and manually controlled the flying car, speeding up. The flying car turned sideways and brushed past the black flying car then ascended to the sky.   

Qian Xu glanced at Lorraine and saw that she had buckled her seat belt: "Have you ever driven exceed the speed limit?"

"No."  

Qian Xu smiled: "Congratulations, you have your first time now."

Qian Xu turned on all four engines and the speed was suddenly increased to the extreme. The flying car sped forward like a beam of light. However, the black flying car was modified with various functions comparable to military flying cars. It had been biting tightly behind Lorraine's speed car. Constantly squeezing and hitting Lorraine's car.   

At the moment, dangers sprang up all around as if the cars would crash and people would die at any time.   

Didn't know whether it was too nervous or was too bumpy, Lorraine's stomach cramped and yet felt about to vomit.   

Qian Xu glanced at Lorraine: "My first battle in the interstellar battleship was also like this."   

"What? Are you not a civilian who researched tactics? How come you joined in the interstellar battle?" Lorraine was too surprised, forgetting to vomit.   

"Even in the Odin Federation, it is impossible to waste A level soldier to do civilian jobs. I used to be a special combat soldier on the battleship. After I got sick, I transferred to a civilian department."   

Lorraine believed immediately because he drove the flying car like a fighting jet. In the hail rain of bullets, swift as the wind and quick as lightning, dodging left and avoiding right, he was able to chat with her calmly as if they were on a drive in a flying car and they were not at death's door at all.   

"How did you overcome when you were scared?"

"I was ridiculously humiliated and teased by the veterans. I'm afraid of embarrassment so I had to hold on. Later..." The flying car suddenly flipped sideway. Lorraine went from bottom up top, looked at his face from aside, the beautifully curved nose bridge and firm jaw as an eternally standing mountain. "When I saw those veterans who made fun of us being blown up, I was only sad and angry."   

Flying car flipped back, Qian Xu's face turned pale and his hands holding the steering wheel were shaking slightly. He took out a small syringe from his pocket.   

The police ear-piercing sirens came with a sped up police car.   

Lorraine breathed a sigh of relief: "Always come late, but it's better than not showing up."   

"Violating driving regulations, please stop immediately for investigation!" Both sides of the police car's body raised up two gun barrels, aiming at Lorraine's flying car.

Qian Xu stared at the police car briefly: "Fake police! That is pk320. Alicata's current police car equipment should be pk420."   

"What?" Lorraine was shocked that color drained out of her face.

The black flying car was behind and the fake police car was in front. They were stuck in the middle. By now there's no way to escape.

"What to do?"   

"Make use of their plan." Qian Xu smiled at Lorraine. He was very calm, so Lorraine also calmed down.   

Qian Xu followed the instructions of the police car and parked the flying car in an empty space on the hillside.

Lorraine bent over and looked around in the car, hoping to find some handy weapon. Qian Xu put a gun in Lorraine's hand: "I have notified Feng Lin and Anna. They will arrive as soon as possible. Later, no matter what happens, hide in the car and don't come out."

"And you?"

"Whoever threatening your life, shoot immediately. Remember! Whoever! Don't hesitate!" Qian Xu's eyes were dim and bright, cold and hot, as if a black hole that should have swallowed everything, but shot out stellar light, eerie weird.

Lorraine noticed that his face was strangely pale, his fingers were a bit strange, and his nails seemed to be becoming sharp. She was terrified. Just about to take a closer look, Qian Xu had already taken his hand away, pushed the door and got out of the car.   

The door closed quickly locked.   

Lorraine patted the car's window and called: "Qian Xu! Qian Xu..."
