Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

"But, Brother Zhang, if we do this, won't you be putting yourself in great danger?" Lin Pengfei, stuck inside the car, asked anxiously.

You know, those are human traffickers. Can Zhang Beixing really handle this alone?

To this, Zhang Beixing waved his hand and said directly, "Do you think I'd be foolish enough to confront them head-on? I'm not stupid. I'm just going to follow behind them. As long as I don't lose them and keep providing their location, when the police arrive, how can those traffickers escape?"

"In a moment, I'll send my real-time location to Sister Qi. That way, you'll also know where I am. Alright, that's the plan. I'm heading off; otherwise, these bastards will really get away!"

As he was speaking, he noticed the van had already navigated several turns and disappeared from sight. Zhang Beixing couldn't delay any longer, ended the conversation, and sprinted after it.

Watching Zhang Beixing's departing figure, Lin Pengfei, sitting in the car, couldn't help but exclaim, "Skill and audacity truly make a man. My brother is incredible!"

Then he obediently followed Zhang Beixing's instructions, got out of the car, and, together with Lin Siqi, busied himself with changing the tire.

BEEP.

At the same time, a notification sound came from Lin Siqi's phone.

She looked down and saw that Zhang Beixing had sent his real-time location, which was constantly moving.

Almost immediately after Zhang Beixing's message arrived.

RING RING RING—

The crisp ringtone of her phone sounded.

It was Xiao Li, the officer who had called her earlier.

Lin Siqi answered the phone and heard Xiao Li's voice: "Hello, Ms. Lin, I'm Officer Li Shuo from the Shishi Public Security Bureau. We've mobilized our entire team and are rushing to your location. How are things on your end?"

What Li Shuo didn't know was that the Ms. Lin on the other end of the phone had been brought into the station by him once. He also didn't know that Lin Pengfei, the main person responsible for that fight incident, was also present at the scene! Nor did he know about Zhang Beixing…

"Our situation here…" Hearing Li Shuo's question, Lin Siqi glanced around and then spoke, honestly explaining their current predicament.

After learning that they had broken down and stopped in the mountain forest, and that one of her companions had even abandoned the car to chase the traffickers on foot, Li Shuo, on the other end of the line, instinctively uttered, "Good heavens."

Just as he was about to admire the young man's daring spirit, his brow suddenly furrowed. He sensed something was amiss.

"Wait, Ms. Lin, what did you just say? Your friend chased after them? Your car had a flat tire; how did he chase them?" Li Shuo pressed anxiously, an incredibly absurd idea flashing through his mind.

Then, the next second, he heard Lin Siqi say in a subdued tone, "He ran after them!"

Li Shuo: "???"

Li Shuo: "!!!"

What the heck? So his guess was actually right! Where did such a daredevil come from? Chasing them purely on foot? All the way?

Knowing this, despite already having a hunch, Li Shuo felt his vision darken, completely floored by the audacious stunt Zhang Beixing had pulled. It was only his professional composure that kept him from losing his cool. But even so, his bewildered eyes revealed the shock in his heart.

This was normal. After all, anyone who learned that someone had suddenly decided to run after a car would need a moment to process it. Even if it was on a mountain road, it still seemed utterly absurd. Had Zhang Beixing been there in person, Li Shuo would have definitely asked him, "Buddy, are you the Flash? What were you thinking, trying to outrun a car?"

Now, there was good news and bad news.

The good news was that the traffickers hadn't been lost, and their whereabouts were known. Li Shuo had also received Lin Siqi and Lin Pengfei's location, confirming they were currently safe.

But the bad news was that only Lin Siqi and Lin Pengfei were safe. Their other companion, however, had run off alone in pursuit of the traffickers!

"Damn it! What kind of mess is this?!"

Even though the situation wasn't appropriate for it, Li Shuo couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.

His words immediately caught the attention of Chief Bai, who was sitting in the back seat.

Chief Bai's brow furrowed slightly, his already austere face now looking even more formidable.

Chief Bai looked at Li Shuo and asked, "What's wrong, Xiao Li? Why have you been so distracted since that call? Now you're even cursing out loud?"

He remembered he had only asked Li Shuo to liaise with Zhang Beixing and the others, to find out their whereabouts and current situation. How did liaising with them turn Li Shuo into this state?

Could it be...

"They… had an accident?" Chief Bai's frown deepened, and his face turned grim as he asked solemnly.

He felt it was improbable. After all, from what he'd heard, these enthusiastic citizens were just a group of college students who hadn't even entered society yet. Even with their passionate, youthful hearts, they were clearly outmatched when facing those unscrupulous traffickers. But since the call could still get through, it meant that even if something had happened, it probably wasn't too serious. Thinking this, Chief Bai's furrowed brow relaxed somewhat.

Li Shuo, hearing Chief Bai's question, snapped back to reality and hurriedly said, "An accident… well, not exactly an accident. It's just that some unexpected things happened while they were chasing the traffickers!"

"Unexpected things?" Hearing Li Shuo's words, Chief Bai reacted with surprise and eagerly asked, "What kind of unexpected things?"

"Uh… well..." Li Shuo paused for a moment, organized his thoughts, and then recounted everything that had happened in detail.

Upon learning that Zhang Beixing had gone off alone, on foot, to chase the traffickers, even Chief Bai, who was usually unsmiling and reserved, showed a bewildered expression.

But ultimately, he was a man who had seen the world. After a moment of confusion, he regained his composure and scolded, "Nonsense! This is utter nonsense! Running to chase those traffickers? What was he thinking? Doesn't he realize how dangerous that is?!"

You have to understand, even if mountain roads are winding and bumpy, slowing vehicles down, they are still machines! And for a person to try and chase a machine with human power—isn't that just plain ridiculous? The car might be slow, but does that mean he's fast? Cars run on fuel; does he run on blood?

This human trafficker incident happening in broad daylight had already made things very difficult for him to explain. If Zhang Beixing, a college student, got into some kind of trouble because of this… then public opinion would absolutely explode! And as for him, the police chief responsible for handling this matter, his career would undoubtedly be over!
