Chapter 39: Improper Driving
The situation is extremely bad.
Even if ordinary people cannot see the piece of meat itself, they can still see the strange traces left by this huge monster as it moves on land.
But this young man suddenly came out from the side of the street and directly inserted himself into the awkward position behind Li Qing and in front of the meat block.
At that time, he only saw Li Qing passing , but he did not see the invisible monster 70 or 80 meters behind Li Qing, which was chasing Li Qing and swallowing up everything in its path.
What's worse is that the motorcycle he was riding seemed to be one of those "street-blasting" versions that had been specially modified by the violent gangs.
The roar of its engine is loud enough to cover up all other noises around it.
This deafening noise usually makes the surrounding residents complain, but at this moment it backfired on the young man driving the motorcycle .
The piece of meat that was already as big as a single-family villa was right behind him, but his ears were buzzing because of the roar of the engine, and he could not hear clearly the huge movement of the monster coming from behind.
At this moment, all he could see was Li Qing, who was driving away in front of him:
"parking!"
"Or I'll shoot you!"
The young man waved the revolver in his hand in a pretend intimidation while speeding up madly towards Li Qing.
“Damn it!”
Li Qing knew that the hatred of the meat piece must have been attracted by the young man who was driving faster.
The distance between the piece of meat and the young man was too close. It would probably take less than two seconds for it to finish the small piece of bread that suddenly appeared in front of it.
"Giorno, come over here and help!"
He shouted to Giorno, who was now driving on another street, to come back and help.
But this is not an open plain after all. Due to the objective unfavorable road conditions and terrain, Giorno was unable to get back to the meat's perception range in time to help solve the problem.
There was no other choice. In order to save the unfortunate child who was about to be swallowed by the piece of meat, Li Qing had to step on the accelerator and increase the speed of the car to the point where his driver's license would be revoked.
Soon, his speed reached an astonishing 90km/h.
The piece of meat that was just a few meters away from extending its tentacles to its prey suddenly stopped moving and turned its attention back to Li Qing who was further ahead.
"Hello!"
Having regained the piece of meat, Li Qing could only stabilize the speed of the car while turning back and shouting at the young man:
"Stop chasing me, idiot!"
"Slow down and stop immediately!!"
"ah?"
The young man's ears were almost deafened by the motorcycle engine under him, and he could not hear Li Qing's anxious and angry advice at all.
On the contrary, seeing Li Qing's overly excited expression, he felt that the car thief was provoking him:
"OK!"
"How dare you be so arrogant? Just wait for death!"
Having said that, he increased the speed of the car without hesitation, as if he wanted to catch up with Li Qing in one go.
“…”
Li Qing knew that he had reached a deadlock:
If you increase the speed, the angry young man will definitely chase you at a faster speed, and the hatred of the piece of meat will immediately be attracted back to this stupid troublemaker.
If you slow down, the young man will definitely catch up with you first and then slow down and stop you.
In these two seconds, Giorno couldn't reach the perception range of the meat block, and the meat block's target was still this guy who didn't know how to live or die.
However, he was too close to the piece of meat. If he really attracted its hatred again, he would probably die on the spot within a second.
Even Li Qing couldn't remind the idiot to look back at the "invisible monster" behind him:
If he saw the strange sight of the ground cracking and collapsing even though there was "clearly nothing" behind him, he would definitely panic and step on the accelerator even harder.
“…”
Li Qing was so depressed that he couldn't speak:
Not to mention his average driving skills as a blind driver, even the performance of the motorcycle he was riding was much worse than that of the young man's vehicle at the time.
No matter how hard he stepped on the accelerator, the motorcycle could only reach about 100km/h.
The young man chasing behind him just increased his speed a little and easily surpassed Li Qing.
In this way, even if Li Qing wanted to take back the hatred of the meat block, he had no right to play a life-and-death race with the other party.
More importantly, there is no time:
It is known that the young man was driving at a speed of 110km/h and the piece of meat was about 5 meters behind him. How many seconds did he have left to live?
all in all…
"Just wait for your death!"
Li Qing thought helplessly.
In fact, he and Giorno had briefly discussed beforehand how to deal with "interference" that might appear during combat, such as young people from society that are difficult to eliminate.
The result of the discussion is...no action.
This is not because they are indifferent to life, but the best conclusion they came to after a brief thought:
Forcibly trying to rescue those "interference objects" that are difficult to eliminate may not necessarily save them. Instead, it is very likely that you will put yourself in danger, causing the battle plan of "luring monsters into the sea" to fail.
On the contrary, as long as they don't meddle in other people's business, one or two "interference objects" with little impact can only delay them for a few seconds at most, and will be immediately swallowed by the runaway piece of meat.
After the piece of meat eats the "interference", it will soon be attracted by Giorno and Li Qing again and return to the right track to the vast ocean.
"Don't blame me..."
"It's just your bad luck."
"You didn't pay attention to the commotion, and you put yourself right in front of the meat."
"You're speeding, you're blasting on the street, you're not driving in a safe way, even God can't save you..."
In that split second, in the last moment of that young man's life, these words of self-comfort emerged in Li Qing's mind.
His final decision was...
"I'll save you!"
Li Qing turned around and looked at the young man who was about to be devoured by the meat, his eyes suddenly became firm:
"This guy is here because I stole his things."
"I said before, I, Li Qing, am not the kind of loser who needs others to clean up his mess... so..."
"Since I started this, I will solve it!"
As he said this, he simply glanced at the motorcycle speeding along under him and turned his attention to Giorno, who was already within the range of his skills.
At this time, the speed of the social youth's car has exceeded the limit of what Li Qing's vehicle can reach. Li Qing can't rely on the motorcycle to be faster than the opponent, so he can only rely on the effect of his skills to divert the hatred of the meat block:
"Golden Bell Cover!"
Li Qing's figure suddenly flew into the air at a terrifying speed that was beyond the reach of others.
He was faster than the motorcycle and everything around him.
“T-This?”
The young man who was chasing after him was immediately stunned:
"He can actually fly?!"
In unspeakable shock, he subconsciously slowed down the car, and looked at Li Qing who was "flying in the wind" from afar with the eyes of an alien.
Then, something even more shocking happened to this young man:
A gust of wind and a tsunami-like wave suddenly exploded not far behind him.
That was the gust of air created by a massive object moving at super high speed.
Just like he was standing within the yellow safety line of the high-speed railway platform, the young man felt a sudden change in air pressure behind him, which almost swept him and his car in.
Immediately afterwards, a huge black shadow blocked the sunlight above his head, but it passed by in an instant in the strong wind.
At this moment, this young gangster, who had been living a comfortable life in a daze and squandering his precious life like toilet paper, tasted the heaviness of the word "death" for the first time.
I will die...I will die...
In that vortex of winds and phantoms, he fell into despair.
But soon, the storm died down and the phantom passed by.
Bang!
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard not far away, and the hard ground paved with steel bars and concrete instantly cracked into mud.
“Ahhhh!”
The young man exclaimed, hurriedly stabilized the car, slowed down and stopped.
Then, he finally saw clearly the instigator of the evil wind just now, and saw clearly the huge black shadow that almost engulfed him:
"Oh My God…"
He sat on the stalled motorcycle in a daze, his hand holding the revolver trembling slightly:
"What a big piece of meat!!"
