Chapter 785 - 785 785 Not the Right Time to Rob

785: Chapter 785: Not the Right Time to Rob 785: Chapter 785: Not the Right Time to Rob Five hours later, Gu Fan and Su Hui arrived at an unfamiliar small town.

They didn’t have time to enjoy the local charm of this foreign place, their hearts still consumed with anxiety.

They made a quick gas stop and moved on.

Su Hui and Gu Fan took turns to drive both day and night, eager to leave in fear of being chased.

Even though Qiao Ya had kindly let them go, some matters were beyond Qiao Ya’s control.

Their car arrived at a fork in the road, which was a good thing for Gu Fan and Su Hui, because the likelihood of being caught by their pursuers was significantly reduced, unless their pursuers could access the highway surveillance system.

If so, even wings wouldn’t allow Gu Fan and Su Hui to escape.

Thus, Gu Fan and Su Hui arrived at a second small town.

This time they checked into a motel to rest.

According to Gu Fan, if they could still be found in their current condition, at least they would have the strength to deal with it when they were found.

Gu Fan and Su Hui each took a room next to each other.

They trusted that if their pursuers found them, they would not dare to attack in broad daylight.

So, they set their alarm clocks, quickly fell asleep, preparing to set off again at night.

Fatigue and a lack of rest made Gu Fan fall asleep quickly.

When he woke up, it was already dark outside.

Looking out of the window, Gu Fan realized it was only seven o’clock and there were still many pedestrians on the streets.

Gu Fan decided it was not yet time to leave and planned to wake Su Hui in an hour.

“Oh my God, how could this happen?” Gu Fan began to rub his head, looking distressed.

He didn’t know what to do.

The destruction of the space-time door was secondary, but the worst part was that none of the researchers survived.

Gu Fan felt guilty for the researchers, but more importantly, he didn’t know how to bring Lin Xi back from ancient times.

Although Qian Ye was Lin Xi’s past life, his actions bore no resemblance to Lin Xi’s character.

It felt as though they were two different people, Qian Ye being more selfish.

“Don’t think you can live comfortably just because you stayed, Qian Ye!” Gu Fan gritted his teeth.

Even though Qian Ye looked exactly like Lin Xi, Gu Fan would never let him off easily.

Gu Fan suddenly thought of Qiao Ya and his people.

Regardless of how they found the underground research base, they were always a threat.

Gu Fan wondered what kind of orders Qiao Ya’s organization would issue now.

Then Gu Fan recalled something about Organization X, as mentioned by Qiao Ya.

The name itself felt mysterious.

Just as Gu Fan was lost in thought, his doorbell rang.

This made Gu Fan nervous.

Who could it be at this hour?

Through the peephole, Gu Fan saw a person in the garb of a motel waiter standing outside, holding a tray, seeming to deliver food.

“Strange, I don’t remember ordering food.

Maybe it’s part of their service.” Gu Fan’s eyebrows furrowed as he opened the door to let the so-called waiter come in with the food.

The waiter handed over the plate with a smile, while Gu Fan graciously accepted it, keeping his guard up.

Just as he expected, the waiter’s eyes flashed viciously, and Gu Fan noticed his shoulder move.

Gu Fan threw a punch at the waiter’s face, knocking him to the ground.

Gu Fan then saw a gun in the waiter’s hand that had been hidden under the plate.

The fake waiter tried to get up, but Gu Fan stomped on his hand causing him to drop the gun.

Gu Fan then rolled over and quickly grabbed the firearm.

Seeing the situation turn south, the waiter stumbled out of the room, and Gu Fan didn’t pursue, worried about Su Hui.

He ran next door to find that her room’s door was already open, his heart sinking instantly.

Upon entering, he was astonished to see the room in disarray.

A person in a waiter’s uniform was lying unconscious on the floor, and Su Hui was holding a gun.

“Wow, you didn’t need me to rescue you after all, you managed just fine on your own.” This remark from Su Hui made Gu Fan chuckle.

He hadn’t noticed the fight next door due to the motel’s soundproof walls or perhaps Su Hui handled it so swiftly.

“Alright.

Looks like our enemies have found us.

We should get going immediately.” Su Hui extended her hand, and Gu Fan knew what she meant.

He handed over the gun he had confiscated.

There was no point in him keeping it; Su Hui could put it to better use.

He didn’t know how to use it anyway.

Su Hui and Gu Fan did not choose to leave from the motel’s main exit, fearful of an ambush, especially as the number of people on the street had started to decrease.

Therefore, they climbed out of their windows and descended onto the streets.

“Looks like Qiao Ya failed to convince his superiors.” Gu Fan sighed bitterly, and his heart began to pound with anxiety.

Listening to the various sounds, Su Hui sensed people approaching from all sides.

She swiftly grabbed Gu Fan’s hand and pulled him to quicken their pace.

The small town was rife with numerous streets and alleys.

After wandering aimlessly around, Gu Fan and Su Hui had no idea where they were, and had to rely on their phone’s GPS.

At this moment, Gu Fan regretted not bringing Xiaoling with him.

Xiaoling could tell which routes were dangerous and which were safe, allowing the two of them to confidently avoid danger and leave the place unscathed.

“You finally realize how valuable Xiaoling is, don’t you?” Su Hui couldn’t resist saying.

“Yes, indeed!

I have more than just this to regret.” Gu Fan replied, feeling a bit angry; his steps quickened.

Su Hui was about to say something comforting when suddenly five men appeared before them.

The men were dressed like thugs, firearms in their hands.

A standoff ensued, with the thugs rudely demanding Gu Fan and Su Hui hand over all their money and possessions.

“Bro, this isn’t the time to rob people.

You’d better leave; it’s going to get dangerous soon.” Gu Fan tried to reason with them, only to receive a slap in face.

The thugs insisted that he comply and stop all the unnecessary talk.

Gu Fan did not think he was being unreasonable; he was genuinely trying to help.

However, his good intentions were not appreciated, instead, he got slapped.

He had a feeling things were going to get unpleasant.

As expected, a series of footsteps approached.

Members of Organization X arrived.

They too were a group of armed men.

Upon arrival, they seemed confused by the scene; why were Gu Fan and Su Hui surrounded by armed men?

Were these men allies, sent to help?

The thugs, in full panic mode upon seeing another group of gunmen, fell into chaos.

Overwhelmed by a situation they had never faced before, they decided to start shooting.
