Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
Her calm and collected attitude made Liam feel humiliated.
He clenched his fists.
Liam suddenly dove back into the car to start it up again. However, by then, Nora had already gotten out of the jeep and placed one hand on the door. She stood there quietly like a great mountain suppressing Liam. He simply couldn’t step on the gas pedal for the longest time.
Liam, who was shaking all over, broke down mentally. Before Nora could even speak, he yelled, “The V16 is with me! Let me go and stop coming after me! Or else I will destroy it!!
Nora raised her eyebrows.
Seeing that she wasn’t saying anything, Liam finally started the car. His car had only traveled 600 feet when the jeep caught up with him from the back again.
Liam panicked. He rolled down the window furiously and shouted to Nora, “I told you, don’t come after me! Or I will destroy the V16!”
However, Nora ignored him and continued to follow him.
Barbarian’s voice also reached Liam through his earphone.
“What’s going on? Is she out of her mind? She’s really not threatened by you?!” Liam snapped, “Who the f*ck knows what’s going on?! Barbarian, where did you glide to? Can you come over and provide reinforcements?!”
Barbarian fell silent. He replied, “I won’t be able to make it there in time. As a precaution, I glided a few hundred miles away. You’re too far away, even if I do get to you, it will take me two or three hours… You have to calm down and keep yourself together…”
“I can’t!” Liam hammered the steering wheel furiously. “It’s driving me nuts!”
Barbarian: “…”
Suddenly, Liam said, “I’ve made up my mind, I’ll return her one of the V16s. This way, she won’t keep haunting me anymore!”
His words instantly enraged Barbarian. He said, “Which of us are you going to use it on if you bring back only one?!”
Liam yelled, “I don’t have the goddamn time to care about you anymore! I just want to get away asap!”
Nearly right after he said that, Liam suddenly took off the Bluetooth earphone on his ear and flung it out the window.
The cars on the highway moved too quickly, the earphone was instantly crushed by the car behind the moment it fell to the ground.
Barbarian’s voice faded into the wireless network..
Liam looked ahead—there was a bridge.
He suddenly drove the car toward it. Then, he parked it and stood on the edge of the bridge.
In a mere span of about ten seconds, Nora’s car stopped beside him. She stood a short distance away and looked at him quietly.
Liam, however, took out two serums and opened the lids. He pointed them at the bridge deck and said, “Don’t come over, Nora! Let’s make a deal! You let me go and we each take one of these two serums. But if you refuse to give me a way out, then I will empty them both into the river!”
Once Nora retrieved the serums, she would only need one for Xander.
Caleb was the only one with some bare connections to Nora. However, his cancer was already at an advanced stage and he didn’t have long to live. Besides, he’d never thought of fighting for the serum, either.
Therefore, it was true that she only needed one.
It was better for Nora to agree to Liam’s offer. By having the two of them take one each, the spoils would be evenly divided. Moreover, the current situation seemed to have reached an impasse.
Liam was very sure that Nora would agree, yet she merely cast her eyes down and continued forward.
“Don’t move! If you come any nearer, I really will empty the serums into the river!”
Liam shouted nervously.
However, Nora did not stop.
She continued to walk forward with a faint smile on her lips.
“Well, It’s purified water anyway, so it doesn’t matter even if you empty them into the river.”
Her words stunned Liam. “What did you say?”
Nora looked at him. “As I said, we stayed in the school because we wanted to catch Barbarian, and for that end, we had made full preparations. So why would I head to the lab to refine the gene serum so carelessly after getting my hands on it?”
She looked at Liam and went on. “I didn’t expect you to be the backup plan in Barbarian’s plans, but the moment you entered the lab, I figured it out. In that case, why would I still refine the V16 and give it to you?”
She stared at the reagent bottles in Liam’s hand and said, “Feel free to toss it.”
There was only distilled water in there anyway–Nora had poured the real gene serum into an inconspicuous test tube in Wayne’s laboratory instead.
It was only after Liam took the two bottles of “gene serum” and left that she had slowly, and leisurely, stored the real V16 in a special container.
Liam: “!!”
He stared at the bottles in his hand in disbelief. Suddenly, he opened the lids and tossed one straight into the river.
But even when he did that, Nora didn’t react in the slightest.
This showed that everything she said was true!
Liam realized at once that he had been fooled!
He threw the other bottle of purified water into the river too and immediately got into his car. Before Nora could catch up, he started the car violently, causing it to zoom straight ahead!
Given Nora’s driving skills, he knew that she would definitely be able to catch up with him, but by then, fleeing had already become something instinctive for him.
Seeing that panic had seized him again, Nora cast her eyes down and sneered. She got into her car, moving very slowly as she did. By the time she got into the car, Liam’s car was already 600 feet away.
But just as she was about to speed up to catch up to Liam…
Bang! Boom!
Liam’s car suddenly exploded violently!!
The entire car was instantly submerged in a sea of flames, which in turn caused a few passing cars nearby to also explode!
Nora could feel her car also shaking. Sound waves and the residual impact of the explosion assailed her from the front, the impact even cracked the windshield.
–
Half an hour later.
In the hospital.
Nora finished having her wounds dressed.
Fortunately, the windshield of the car she was driving had been modified into bulletproof glass, so it was relatively safe. But even so, parts of the windshield had still shattered and stabbed into her arm.
However, the other four or five cars around them were not as lucky.
Some of the people in the cars suffered burns that covered more than 70% of their skin while others were killed on the spot. There was even a family of three in one of the cars. Both parents had died and only the child in the back seat had survived. Even so, he had also suffered burns.
Before he was administered anesthesia, he kept calling out for his parents… The doctors could only comfort him and tell him that his parents would be back soon.
The scene was simply too devastating and Nora couldn’t help clenching her fists as she watched.
She really didn’t expect that Spacey would plant a bomb on his own car. In addition, his mental resilience had also been much worse than she’d imagined.
To think he would start running about in a panic like a headless chicken…
She clenched her jaw. After her arm was bandaged, her cell phone rang.
It was an unregistered number.
She answered the call, whereupon Barbarian’s voice came from the other end: “Is the scene in front of you to your liking?”
Nora’s pupils shrank abruptly at his words and she suddenly realized something. She asked, “You’re the one who planted the bomb in his car?”
“That’s right,” Barbarian sneered, “Not only is he stupid and daft, but he’s also a coward who values his life very much. When someone like him encounters a problem, there’s no way they would have the guts to risk an act of desperation. If he didn’t die, it would have destroyed our plan! He knew too much! So, if he couldn’t retrieve the V16, then he must die!”
Barbarian’s cold-heartedness made Nora clench her jaw.
As Nora watched the bodies of the parents from the family of three being pushed out of the operating room, she suddenly couldn’t help but question him. “Have you ever thought about how many innocent people have been hurt by your actions? How many innocent families have been destroyed?”
Barbarian sneered. “What do they have to do with me? Besides, from the moment I was born, has the world ever shown me any kindness? If not, then why should I show them any kindness? Don’t take the moral high ground and condemn me. You haven’t suffered the way I have, how can you possibly understand how I feel?”
He spoke coldly and indifferently. There was no anger in his voice-in fact, there wasn’t even any emotion, just like how a human wouldn’t be full of guilt just because they crushed an ant.
