As the plane landed, Bai Ge arrived in San Francisco.
It was already around ten in the evening. After passing through customs, the two headed straight for the Chinatown district.
However, on the way, Shao Yuan said, "Doesn't San Francisco have a containment item? I'll go check the situation, I won't go find your sister."
"What's there to be afraid of about meeting her?" Bai Ge chuckled.
Shao Yuan shook his head frantically. "You two siblings are reuniting, why would I go? I might as well do some surveillance."
Bai Ge was speechless. "We can just use my hacking tools to check first, there's no need to be so rushed."
Shao Yuan pouted. "Alright, you're the boss. Just don't mind me being a third wheel."
"Hey! She's my biological sister!" Bai Ge exclaimed in surprise.
Shao Yuan gave a strange smile. "I know..."
"..."
On the road, Bai Ge handed him the electromagnetic gun and instructed, "Keep the ring safe. If you dare let the ring touch my sister, I'll chop off your hand."
After hearing this, Shao Yuan said very seriously, "Should I just swallow the ring? Anyway, if the ring contacts me, any part of my body can transfer the virus. To infect and cause infertility, the ring needs to make contact..."
Bai Ge was speechless. "You don't need to go that far, just cover it with gloves is fine."
The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at Chinatown.
Bai Ge directly dialed Bai Ye's number, but after waiting for a long time, no one answered.
Now he was in a bind. Bai Ge didn't know where his sister lived.
Shao Yuan said, "Her phone is on, why don't we just track her location?"
Bai Ge was reluctant to do so. He called three more times, but still no answer.
"Track her!"
It was much easier to track a smartphone now than before. In just five minutes, Shao Yuan had located Bai Ye's phone.
"Bai Ge! Her location is very close to that containment item, almost together!"
"What?"
Bai Ge's expression immediately changed. He called Bai Ye again, but still no answer.
He decisively hacked into his sister's phone, trying to force her camera to turn on. After fiddling all day, the other side just showed a black screen, meaning the camera was covered.
"Let's go! We need to get there immediately!" Bai Ge was anxious.
Containment items could become dangerous without warning. His sister was so close, if anything happened, Bai Ge would go crazy!
Seeing how anxious Bai Ge was, Shao Yuan knew the seriousness of the situation. He looked around and said, "But we don't have a car! There are no ride-hailing services here either! We'll have to wait for a taxi."
Bai Ge decisively pointed at a car parked nearby. "There are cars everywhere!"
Shao Yuan was taken aback, then saw Bai Ge walk towards a Chevrolet parked by the roadside and pull the door open with a tug.
Bai Ge beckoned Shao Yuan into the car. He started it directly without a key, and the car shot forward.
Shao Yuan looked at the empty keyhole in surprise but didn't say anything. He was already quite used to Bai Ge's occasional displays of miraculous abilities.
"Help me navigate!"
Bai Ge was driving the Chevrolet, accelerating to a hundred and still picking up speed, weaving through traffic with a heavy roar.
Shao Yuan didn't hesitate, immediately looking at the GPS and guiding Bai Ge.
Not long after, a police car behind them turned on its siren and gave chase.
Clearly, their reckless driving through the city was going to get them pulled over.
But Bai Ge had no intention of stopping; instead, he tried his best to shake off the police.
"Find the clearest route, and you'd better hack into the surveillance cameras at Bai Ye's location," Bai Ge said.
Shao Yuan, hearing this, quickly took out his laptop.
He was simultaneously guiding Bai Ge, checking traffic conditions, and trying to find Bai Ye's surveillance feed. The urgent sirens behind them made Shao Yuan a bit flustered.
Seeing that he was overwhelmed, Bai Ge took the computer and placed it under the car window.
With one hand, he operated it, typing rapidly.
His other hand gripped the steering wheel, completely steady. His operation was much smoother than Shao Yuan's.
Shao Yuan was merely utilizing his tools, while Bai Ge possessed genuine skill. In the blink of an eye, he could also secretly exchange information with Bell.
If he encountered an encrypted lock that needed cracking, he could force it open with a single thought.
"Red light ahead. At this speed, we'll hit red lights at three consecutive intersections..." Shao Yuan said, checking the route on his phone.
Bai Ge grunted. "I know, I've already hacked the traffic control system."
As he spoke, the red lights abruptly turned green, and the traffic flow immediately cleared. Bai Ge quickly sped past.
After he passed, the downside of the early green lights became apparent. Cars from two lanes converged, completely blocking the intersection.
This perfectly blocked the pursuing police car behind them. Such precise timing was calculated by Bell for him.
Bai Ge quickly crossed two blocks, with all green lights clearing his path.
Fortunately, it was late at night. Although his driving caused traffic chaos and gridlock at several intersections, it wasn't a complete standstill.
More and more police cars were arriving from various intersections, attempting to force Bai Ge to stop.
At this moment, Bai Ge's speed had already hit 180 kilometers per hour, a suicidal speed in the city.
However, Bai Ge could always anticipate the road conditions ahead, and he could also detect the approach of all police cars in advance.
He was seen operating with one hand, his eyelids blinking rapidly, processing a massive amount of information in collaboration with Bell.
In the eyes of the police, this Chevrolet was insane, completely fearless. It had repeatedly scraped through the narrow gaps between two police cars at the limit.
"Hit him!" Over a dozen police cars couldn't catch up to Bai Ge, which made them extremely annoyed.
In San Francisco, they had apprehended countless street racers, and the police themselves had developed excellent driving skills.
In fact, at first, they enjoyed pursuing such racers, as it allowed them to legally speed.
The police enjoyed the thrill of catching up to their targets... of course, provided they could actually catch them...
The Chevrolet before them seemed to be in an open field, completely disregarding the complex road conditions, weaving through one streetlight after another.
"Screech..." At a sharp bend, Bai Ge executed a sudden drift.
Because his speed was too high, he didn't decelerate at all. The entire car was on the verge of losing control, and it swerved sideways towards a police car that had cut him off.
One of its tires lifted off the ground, seemingly about to flip over.
If he collided with the police car in this manner, the Chevrolet would lift off the ground, roll over the police car's roof, and ultimately crash into the storefronts by the roadside.
"Oh!"
The police officers in the distance exclaimed in unison.
The two officers in the police car about to be hit looked terrified.
If they were hit, while they wouldn't fare as badly as the Chevrolet, they certainly wouldn't escape unscathed.
The police, their eyes bulging with rage, wanted to get a clear look at the madman driving the Chevrolet. Unfortunately, the side windows were tinted, and they could only see a blurry silhouette.
"We're going to crash..." the officers thought with a sigh.
But just then, there was a dull thud.
"Bang!"
The Chevrolet tilted forty-five degrees and, due to its high speed and the police car's obstruction, flipped onto its side and spun into the air.
But what happened next made them appreciate Newton.
The Chevrolet spun 720 degrees in mid-air, perfectly clearing the police car and landing steadily on the ground.
Everything happened so fast. The Chevrolet, which was about to flip, landed with incredible precision as if covered by divine luck. The uncontrollable sideways force was somehow dissipated.
It was as if a gymnast had performed a routine in the air, landing beautifully and astonishingly.
The loss of control from the forced turn was resolved just like that. The speed did not decrease upon landing, and it sped away, leaving deep tire marks on the road.
"What? How is that even possible?"
The police officers were stunned. They had never seen such a terrifying turn, a full-speed drift that resulted in uncontrollable spinning and a perfect landing.
The police car that had blocked the road had inadvertently become a backdrop for an obstacle course.
"Is that Bumblebee?"
Inside the pursuing police cars, exclamations of "WTF" were heard repeatedly.
A young police officer asked the experienced driver, "Can you do a turn like that?"
"I don't know... No one's ever tried it! Shouldn't it have just flipped over and crashed into a wall?" The veteran driver, who had apprehended many street racers, couldn't understand this driving skill either.
In fact, they didn't know that even Shao Yuan, in the passenger seat, was sweating profusely from fear.
Theoretically, the situation just moments ago should have resulted in flipping and rolling.
But if the driver... were Magneto, then it would be a different story.
