Chapter 5047: Escape Editor: Henyee Translations At this moment, the man was no longer as high-spirited as he was in the car earlier. He was listless. Then, he slapped himself hard and sobbed, "I really didn’t know that something would happen. If I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have gotten out of the car." He slapped himself so hard that red finger marks immediately appeared on his cheeks. Xia Jinyuan’s cold expression softened. ",You should start paying attention to the sides of the road to see if your friends are there." Seeing that he had slapped himself, Xia Jinyuan didn’t have the heart to blame the young man for being immature. He and his friends didn’t hear the reminder Xia Jinyuan gave earlier? Then what about giving him the middle finger? Xia Jinyuan called Ye Jian’s phone again. This time, the call went through. Ye Jian took a look at the caller ID and immediately picked up the call. "Captain Xia, we’re returning now and have arrived at the service station. Two police officers have died in the car, and two police officers are accompanying us. I’m driving." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞 She quickly told Xia Jinyuan about her situation. Xia Jinyuan also told Ye Jian about his situation as well. Ye Jian, who was driving and on speakerphone, found out that the escaped felon had taken three hostages and was heading to Xiji City. Ye Jian’s heart sank. He was a serious criminal who even dared to kill a police officer. Killing a few more hostages was not a problem for him. When the police officers in the car heard this, they said something at the same time. Ye Jian didn’t know what they said, but she knew that it wasn’t a good thing. "I’m driving at 180 miles per hour now. I haven’t discovered any hijacked vehicles for the time being. I’m starting to speed up to 240 miles per hour. Just follow closely. There’s no hurry to catch up with me." The military Jeep had definitely been modified before while Ye Jian was driving a seven-seater commercial vehicle. No matter how fast she sped up, she would only be able to reach 200 miles per hour at most. The two of them had a short conversation and learned about each other’s situation. Even though they were chasing after a felon, they were even calmer than usual. As the wanted criminal Gongga Ningbu had escaped again and taken three hostages, the entire urban police force was mobilized. Sirens sounded over the entire city, and hundreds of police officers took action. The plan on how to rescue the hostages was urgently launched. As for where the car was now... they couldn’t find out at the moment. The transportation department checked the surveillance footage along the northwest highway, using the service station as the starting point. Continuing forward was Gangcha County. It was also the county city that Ping Tao, Duo Ji, and the two dead police officers needed to reach. At the back was Xiji City, the provincial capital city where Gongga Ningbu was caught. The service station where the accident happened was the Lari Village service station in Xiji City that was 567 kilometers away from the 315th National Highway. From the service station, it was nearly 400 kilometers to Gangcha County. The two sides were so far apart. No one could guarantee that Gongga Ningbu wouldn’t abandon the car midway. Moreover, they agreed that the possibility of abandoning the car midway was very high! Once he abandoned the car midway, it was unlikely that they would be able to catch Gongga Ningbu again. With his survivability, he could survive for half a year or even longer in the desert. He was a brutal and cunning fellow who didn’t have many requirements for his living environment. "The possibility of him entering Xiji City is quite small. It’s more than 560 kilometers from the Lari Village service station to Xiji City. With Gongga Ningbu’s cunningness, it’s impossible for him to keep heading to Xiji City. "Also, he must know that entering Xiji City is equivalent to walking into a trap. There’s an 80% chance that he’ll abandon his car halfway." It wasn’t an 80% chance. It was 100%. The fugitive, Gongga Ningbu, did plan to abandon his car halfway and escape. He didn’t consider entering Xiji City again.
