Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Chapter 270: Racing Against Time


Liu Qiqi's residence turned up empty, so we'll have to wait until tonight to search for her at Good Song City.

After receiving the call from Li San, Xiaofan frowned. Given the person's identity, if her main occupation is modeling, she should be out for an activity during the day. Yet, Li Kuo didn't find any recent activities she could be attending.

Thinking of this, Xiaofan made a call to Lin Miaoke. After all, this case was being investigated by the Bureau, and sooner or later, the police would need to gather clues. It's possible that the police have already taken her away.

"Liu Qiqi? The case at Li Kuo's place isn't under our jurisdiction, but I can help you check on it now."

Lin Miaoke was eager to help Xiaofan and, after the call, quickly contacted several police departments, none of which had records of Liu Qiqi being brought in.

Do we really have to wait until tonight to find her?

But there's still a while until evening, and it's hard to say if anything unexpected might happen in that time.

"Xiaofan, what are you thinking about? You're frowning so deeply," Li Kuo asked gently.

"Hmm? According to you, if Uncle Li didn't buy a car or house for this woman, then it must be slander. If that's the case, she'll definitely suspect that the police and possibly... the assassin will come looking for her after the incident."

"Assassin?" Li Kuo asked in confusion.

"Yes, the safest mouth is a dead one. If the police haven't taken her, it's possible she might be killed. If she's not too naive, she should hide, or..."

"Flee to another country." Li Kuo immediately began typing on his keyboard. In less than ten seconds, a box popped up on the screen. Seeing the contents, Li Kuo quickly said, "Oh no, there's an 11:30 flight from here; it's 10:20 now. She's taking a flight to Singapore. Quickly call Li San and the others to intercept her."

"Forget calling; we'll get to the airport quicker from here. Let's go together."

"What? I'm going too?" Li Kuo saw Xiaofan already changing shoes to leave, and quickly followed.

"I don't feel comfortable leaving you alone here." The assassination attempt last night was still unresolved. At the very least, he could protect him by staying together.

Of course, the assassination order hanging over Xiaofan was still a significant threat. Those hidden assassins could show up at any moment, but they shouldn't have found this place just yet.

The two got in the car, and as soon as it started, they sped off. Although the car had been repaired after the last crash, it was still worth over a million and had impressive power.

Li Kuo knew that time was of the essence, but it was his first time in such a fast car. As the speedometer climbed to 120, 130, and kept going, he desperately clung to the handle and fastened his seatbelt tightly.

10:55. Inside the airport.

Just about to prepare for boarding, a tall woman kept glancing at the passageway outside the waiting room. She had no intention of removing her sunglasses and hat.

This woman was Liu Qiqi, the one Xiaofan was desperately searching for. Thanks to Li Kuo's skills, they found her near the international airport in such a short time.

However, someone else got there before Xiaofan.

If Li Kuo could easily find her, then it's likely others did too.

And sure enough, when two tall men in suits and sunglasses walked into the departure hall, Liu Qiqi's face turned terribly grim.

As soon as they entered, they started looking around. There's no doubt—they were looking for Liu Qiqi.

Naturally, Liu Qiqi couldn't just sit there and let them find her. Calling for help was not an option; whether she ended up in their hands or the police, there would be no good outcome for her, so she took her small suitcase and headed towards the escalator to the second-floor supermarket and restaurant of the waiting room.

Liu Qiqi's movement instantly caught the attention of both men. After exchanging a quick glance, they hurriedly followed.

Fear gripped the woman's heart, and she didn't know what to do. Her only option was to hide in the restroom.

But as time ticked by, the outside remained silent. As the boarding announcement sounded, Liu Qiqi was compelled to board at the last moment.

Once she passed security and boarded the plane, she'd be free from this mess.

Peeking out cautiously, Liu Qiqi noticed the men weren't outside anymore, so she immediately donned her heels and headed towards the escalator.

Upon safely arriving on the ground floor and just before she could express her relief, she saw the two men by security walking briskly toward her.

Now panicked, Liu Qiqi didn't know what to do. Her only escape route was blocked, and time was running out. If she didn't board, she wouldn't get away today.

What to do? What to do?

'Clatter.'

Suddenly, a hand grabbed her, startling her greatly.

"Ah, you..."

"Don't scream. I'm here to save you; follow me."

"No, who exactly are you?" seeing the youthful face, Liu Qiqi questioned.

"I'm telling you, if you come with me now, you'll live. If they find you, you will surely die."

That's right, it was Xiaofan who arrived just in time. If those two hadn't held her up, Liu Qiqi would have already cleared security.

Seeing the two menacing men approaching, and this young Xiaofan, Liu Qiqi didn't have a chance to react. Xiaofan had already taken her suitcase and forcefully led her out of the terminal, heading quickly outside.

At this point, she didn't know who to trust anymore, only blindly trusting the person who pulled her away.

Meanwhile, those two men aimed to avoid causing a commotion in the airport terminal and preferred to deal with the woman secretly. However, if necessary, they were prepared to take extreme measures.

They each had a weapon in their pockets—a gun in one, a taser in the other. Two weapons, two approaches. But they hadn't expected Xiaofan to intervene.

After chasing them outside the airport, the two men accelerated their pursuit.

Yet Xiaofan wouldn't let them get by easily, confidently blocking the path of the approaching men.

The two men watched helplessly as a car pulled up, and Liu Qiqi got inside. The driver turned out to be Li Zhongran's son, Li Kuo.

"Kid, move aside," one of the men shouted angrily when the car didn't leave.

The other didn't wait for Xiaofan's response, pulling out the taser and charging towards Xiaofan.
