"Beep—beep—"
Frank stared at the suddenly illuminated dashboard, his mind reeling!
Could this car be broken?
He had just filled it with gas, but now it showed empty. Not to mention, all the warning lights for things like the engine, battery, and four-wheel drive simultaneously lit up.
To be honest, he'd been driving for nearly thirty years and had never seen so many warning lights at once!
"Is this car... broken?" Valentina, sitting in the passenger seat, immediately grabbed the handle above her head, asking Frank nervously.
Good heavens, with so many warning lights, she wouldn't be surprised if the car suddenly exploded the next second.
"Strange!" Frank lightly pressed the accelerator, causing the car to slow down, and then got out to open the hood.
"No problem! Could it be the dashboard is broken?" As a car god, Frank was familiar with all the parts of a car. Although he couldn't compare to those top-tier car modification masters, he was still better than ordinary repairmen.
After carefully checking all the equipment and lines, he didn't find any problems. Frank closed the hood with suspicion.
"I said, why didn't you choose a better car? This piece of junk looks cheap. It would be terrible if something went wrong!" Valentina grumbled.
Frank looked at his latest Audi sedan speechlessly. This car couldn't be considered cheap anywhere, right?
But considering that this girl's father was a powerful Ukrainian minister, in her eyes, an Audi might really only be considered a cheap car!
"There's nothing wrong with it. It must be those Russians who messed with my car!" Defending his beloved car, Frank pressed the start button again.
The result…
"I told you your car was broken!" Valentina looked like she had known it all along. Looking at her disgusted expression, Frank really wanted to hit someone!
"What's going on?" Frank repeatedly pressed the start button, but the car didn't budge!
"Damn it!"
Recalling the earlier issues with the car, Frank immediately realized he was in trouble.
"Mr. Johnson, I'm in deep trouble. When will your people arrive?" He didn't hesitate to pull out his phone and call Johnson.
"What did you say?" Johnson asked, puzzled.
He had just seen on the GPS that Frank's car had suddenly stopped. He thought someone needed a bathroom break, but instead, he got this strange phone call.
"The car suddenly broke down. I think someone directly hacked into the car's control system. If your people can't arrive within three minutes, I think your goods and my life will be finished!" Frank figured that an enemy who could appear and disappear so mysteriously was probably related to that mysterious commission.
Although Li Qingyuan hadn't heard anything when Johnson was on the phone, that didn't stop Frank from speculating.
Li Qingyuan didn't know Johnson's identity, but judging from the man's demeanor and bearing, he was definitely not a nobody, especially since Johnson had strapped an Electromagnetic Hydraulic Bomb on him, something Li Qingyuan had never even heard of before.
It was conceivable that the forces behind Johnson were backed by immense power and capital, possibly even reaching the point of being able to cover the sky with one hand.
But even Johnson, with such a powerful background, had to swallow his pride after receiving a call from the mysterious employer and let Li Qingyuan deliver the goods first.
Even elementary school students could figure this out with a simple analogy.
The mysterious employer's strength was far greater than Johnson's, and there was a group of people who wanted to steal the employer's goods. So, without a doubt, those who dared to steal the employer's goods, even if their strength wasn't as great, wouldn't be too far off!
After all, only a cheetah would dare to provoke a Mighty Lion. If you were a moose, why would you go and provoke a lion? Wouldn't you be asking for trouble?
"Damn it, why did I think of letting this guy deliver the goods!" Johnson on the other end of the phone was furious and wanted to kill someone. He had really shot himself in the foot. If he had known, he could have just found someone else to deliver the goods. Why did he have to go and find this so-called gold-medal escort to ensure the mission's success?
But despite his cursing, he quickly sent a message to his subordinates, telling them to hurry and rendezvous with Frank.
"Four cars are heading towards the ambush point. According to the signal collected from the cars, it can be determined that they are all carrying light weapons, with a number of approximately fifteen people!" Red Queen began to remind him from a position about three kilometers away in the opposite direction.
"Can you handle fifteen people?" Li Qingyuan turned to Jill and asked.
"No problem, you're underestimating me!" Jill pouted unhappily. She wasn't just a pretty face, you know? Fifteen thugs? Who was he looking down on?
"Okay, then let's see your performance!" Seeing Jill's dissatisfied look, Li Qingyuan quickly nodded.
Although the best solution would be to use a missile launcher to blow those cars to smithereens, considering this was a peaceful world, the authorities might turn a blind eye to a shootout. However, if he launched a missile directly in France, the French cabinet probably wouldn't sleep tonight!
Besides, Jill had felt her marksmanship improve greatly these past few days and needed some people to practice on.
The thugs employed by EGO Company still had a long way to go to catch up with the top-tier special agents. Fifteen people was just right.
So, he drove the car to a spot only about fifty meters from the center of the incident before stopping.
"Be careful, the enemy is here!" Frank looked at the silver-white luxury car that had suddenly stopped in front of them and shouted to the EGO thugs guarding him.
These people, who had been tailing him to monitor him, had now become his bodyguards.
But there was nothing they could do; their boss had ordered them to protect this guy!
More than a dozen people, all armed with firearms, were eyeing the car parked in front of them with hostility.
It wasn't because they were particularly skilled, but because they knew what they were looking at. They could tell at a glance that the car was bulletproof, and firing at it would be a waste of bullets.
Besides, Johnson had instructed them to avoid using force if possible. As long as the other party didn't take Valentina, they could let them take Frank's life if they wanted to.
Tap!
Frank saw a slender, black-stockinged leg emerge from the passenger side of the car. A pair of fiery red high heels gently touched the ground, and a chilling aura immediately filled the air.
Jill gracefully stepped out of the car, completely ignoring the dozen or so armed men.
Everyone couldn't help but swallow hard. They had originally thought that some fearsome, ferocious person was coming, but who would have thought it would be such a super beauty with a figure so hot it made people burst out laughing?
Even though the other party was wearing a mask, just looking at this figure was enough to instantly kill a bunch of so-called supermodels!
