Chapter 411: Wild Wolf Mountain

Su Canye eyed Xiao Luo steadily, keeping his voice calm and collected, and giving the impression that he had seen through Xiao Luo’s charade.

Xiao Luo stopped in his track, turned around, then cocked his head, and gave Su Canye an intimidating glare.

“Brother-in-law, I’m not a three-year-old child. I can tell the difference between a real gun and a fake one. When I was younger, my sis forced me to train with the army for three months to build up my physique. Needless to say, during training, I learned to handle guns. And, I’ve done a little research on that pistol of yours, the Desert Eagle. It was first introduced as a hunting pistol and released in 1980 by the MRI. It has a shooting range of more than a 100-meter, and its formidable stopping power is renowned worldwide. A gun tester once suggested that only people weighing more than 80 kilograms could handle such a handgun due to its tremendous recoil.”

Su Canye slowly walked toward Xiao Luo with a knowing smile on his face and said, “The Desert Eagle is hailed the King of Pistols, and people who own such a piece are undoubtedly not ordinary folk, tell me if I’m not wrong.”

Xiao Luo smiled coldly and snarled, “You know too much already...”

Xiao Luo had always thought that Su Canye was a just babbling airhead who could be misled by mere guile and duplicity. But evidently, this matter was not going to go away that easily, and Xiao Luo was even now considering whether he should use hypnosis to contain Su Canye.

Under Xiao Luo’s intense gaze, Su Canye shuddered and hurriedly assumed a more submissive posture. “Brother-in-law, why do you look like you want to murder me,” he said, “Look, I’m sincerely asking you for your help. As long as you help me, this secret of yours will never be divulged; I will never tell my sister, I swear. Upon my word, should I ever tell her, with God as my witness, I will be struck down by lightning and never find a suitable girl in my lifetime.”

“The problem here is, your creditworthiness with me is a big, fat zero!”

Xiao Luo didn’t mince his words, as memories of Su Canye spilling the beans to Su Li after the Star Cloud Kendo Gym incident was still fresh in his mind. Had Su Canye been able to keep his word then, perhaps Xiao Luo would have been willing to help the kid get his car back. But now, coupled with the fact that he was now even threatening to tell Su Li about the gun, Xiao Luo just didn’t feel like doing it.

“Brother-in-law, you’ve hurt my feelings!”

Su Canye clutched at his chest dramatically and put on a look of distress on his face.

Xiao Luo wasn’t amused and refused to speak to Su Canye any further, considering him nothing more than a goofball. Ignoring him would be the best way to deal with it.

At that moment, the door to Su Li’s apartment opened, and there she was, looking splendid with her hourglass figure, and staring at the two of them strangely. “What are you two doing out here?” she asked.

Irked with Xiao Luo’s reaction, Su Canye smirked as he approached Su Li and said, “Sis, I made an important discovery today, you see, it’s about brother-in-law, he... ouch, my foot!”

Su Canye stopped abruptly and howled in pain as Xiao Luo discreetly stepped on his foot, making him hop around on one leg, trying to relieve the soreness in his foot.

Xiao Luo coughed and said in a hushed tone, “It’s a deal!”

When Su Canye heard this, he instantly forgot about the pain laughed in joy, rushing over to Xiao Luo to give him a bear hug. “Brother-in-law, I knew that you still dote on me! Muak! I love you so much, hahaha... okay, let’s go and eat now!” he cried.

He was over the moon and so overwhelmed with emotion that he actually gave Xiao Luo a peck on the cheek. He was getting his car back! And, with that thought in mind, he pranced jauntily into the apartment.

A dark cloud hung over Xiao Luo, and if it wasn’t for Su Li being there, he undoubtedly would’ve taught Su Canye a good lesson.

Su Li looked at Xiao Luo quizzically for a while, wondering when these two had suddenly become such pals.

“Time to eat!” she said.

Su Li went back into the apartment, but Xiao Luo stayed a minute, quickly wiping off traces of saliva Su Canye had disgustingly left on his face.

He strangely felt a little dismayed about the whole episode, wondering why he even felt nervous that Su Canye would tell Su Li about the gun. But precisely what was he afraid of? That Su Li would find out about his true nature—a butcher with blood on his hands?

...

...

After dinner, Su Canye didn’t allow Xiao Luo to leave his sight, and he patiently waited in his apartment until 12 o’clock midnight. Finally, it was time to head off with Xiao Luo, and they got into his Trumpchi SUV and made their way to the Wild Wolf Mountain.

Of course, there were no wolves on the Wild Wolf Mountain. It was just a large hill with an altitude of more than 800 meters located on the outskirts of Xiahai City. It had five to six peaks and a long, winding road that ran through them. The terrain provided a challenging drive as the road was made up of stretches of serpentine bends complete with countless sharp corners and hairpin turns. It wasn’t surprising that the mountain had become a mecca for racing enthusiasts all over.

Road racing was a trendy sport in Xiahai, but the fact was, it was an underground activity, and none of it was legal. There was no way that the traffic police would allow such scenes in movies like “Speed” to happen on public roads, so these events were always held in the middle of the night. And, besides, many stringent conditions had to be met for such races—for one thing, the race could not be impeded by oncoming traffic, so the entire stretch of road had to be sealed off.

When they arrived, there were already many racing enthusiasts gathered at the foot of the Wild Wolf Mountain. The place burst with excitement, illuminated by two large petrol drums burning with flames leaping some three to four meters high. There were also multiple arrays of modified racing lights that added to the highly-charged atmosphere, lighting up the area and making it look almost like daytime.

Xiao Luo scanned the surrounding, and it wasn’t hard to notice that all the racing vehicles were sports cars with price tags in the millions. Even the least exotic vehicle was worth at least 700 thousand dollars. Of course, were his Trumpchi to be included, it would undoubtedly hold the dubious honor of being the least expensive vehicle there.

When Xiao Luo found an available space, he parked the car there, then turned to look at Su Canye and asked, “Who’s the one that’s got your Bentley?”

“There, he’s the one!”

Su Canye pointed his finger at someone.

Following the direction Su Canye was pointing at, Xiao Luo saw a burly baldheaded man who was about 1.8 meters tall and well-stacked with muscles. He was wearing a tight short-sleeved shirt and wide jeans and had his beefy arms around a sexy girl, a lovely foreign woman with blond hair and blue eyes.

“His name is Lei Shijian, and he’s known as the ‘Wolf King.’ He is the captain of the Wild Wolf Mountain racing team. He’s why the Wild Wolf Mountain race has become so popular; he single-handedly built its reputation and a whole gambling industry around it. Besides taking regular bets, they also entertain special bets with amounts ranging from 500 thousand to 5 million dollars, so for drivers with remarkable racing skills, it is not impossible to become rich overnight in the Wild Wolf Mountain.”

Many of the wealthy in Xia Hai was simply hooked on its thrills and excitement. The moment they learned that there was a racing event in the Wild Wolf that very night, they joined one after another. There was even a dedicated forum about the Wild Wolf Mountain on the Internet, and its members were all racing fanatics. As soon as Lei Shijian released news that a race was to be held, everyone would turn up in droves.

But, many racing enthusiasts couldn’t make it to the Wild Wolf Mountain to watch the race. To meet the demand, a team was set up to record the races and was equipped with a fleet of high-end camera drones covering the entire stretch of road. The videos were edited and post-edited into complete segments and posted online, ensuring that fans did not miss a thing and shared in the event’s excitement.”

Su Canye gave Xiao Luo a quick rundown on the brawny baldheaded man and points of interest about the Wild Wolf Mountain race.
