Chen Shenglong’s own son had not escaped, and now his Chen family would be without descendants. A wave of despair washed over Chen Shenglong.
“Damn it, I’ll fight you to the death.”
Chen Shenglong struggled to stand up from the ground. His hands were bound, but his feet could still move. He charged straight towards the bodyguard who had taken his money, determined to fight him. Even if he had to bite him with his teeth, he would tear off a piece of flesh.
However, before he could get close, the bodyguard delivered a flying kick, sending Chen Shenglong flying. Chen Shenglong’s body hung in the air for more than half a second before crashing heavily onto the ground. After kicking Chen Shenglong away, the bodyguard pulled out a dagger and said to his brothers behind him.
“Hurry up, finish them off so we can report back.”
Several subordinates also pulled out their daggers and walked towards Chen Shenglong’s wife and child.
“Let go of my wife and child!”
Chen Shenglong, rolling on the ground, roared at the bodyguard and prepared to get up again. Unexpectedly, the bodyguard’s dagger lunged directly at Chen Shenglong.
At the same time, two bodyguards beside him also pulled out their daggers and stabbed Chen Shenglong’s wife and son.
Seeing that they were about to harm his son, Chen Shenglong’s wife struggled desperately.
“Pfft!”
“Wait, stop them all!”
The dagger was half-buried in Chen Shenglong’s body, and the bodyguard’s hand stopped in mid-air.
As the voice came, the movements of several bodyguards came to an abrupt halt. Kun Liu ran over in a hurry from a distance. Seeing the woman lying in a pool of blood and Chen Shenglong with a dagger half-inserted, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
This is bad!
“Quick, pull them up.”
Kun Liu went to Chen Shenglong’s wife and checked her breathing. Damn it, she was dead.
Muttering a curse, Kun Liu quickly glanced at the other two. Fortunately, they were still alive. Chen Xiang, being a man, struggled, causing the bodyguard’s action to be half a second late.
After the bodyguard pulled the dagger out of Chen Shenglong’s body, Chen Shenglong struggled and crawled towards his wife’s corpse. Chen Xiang did the same, crying as he hugged his mother’s body.
“Mom, wake up, wake up!”
Kun Liu turned and slapped the bodyguard who had killed Chen Shenglong’s wife. The bodyguard was stunned. Didn’t you order us to deal with them? Why are you hitting me when I completed the mission?
“Damn it, I’ll kill you.”
Twisting his body, Chen Shenglong lunged again. The bodyguard was about to meet him but was stopped by Kun Liu, who grabbed Chen Shenglong and Chen Xiang and led them back towards the minivan.
“The boss has ordered us to return to Kyoto as soon as possible!”
Back at the minivan, the car started again. As for Chen Shenglong’s wife, she was dead anyway, so there was no use taking her back. She was simply dumped in the wilderness.
....................................................................
The next morning, at the Ls Nian’an International Race Circuit.
Yan Xiaoqiang, who had learned that Lin Yan would personally teach him, walked out of the dormitory building with a nervous heart under the envious gazes of his companions.
This dormitory building was built by Lin Yan a few days ago and was located in a corner of the race circuit.
Besides Yan Xiaoqiang, Jiang Qiyan was also called over by Lin Yan. His team was short-handed, and for the Genius Youth Cup next week, only these two were presentable.
“Look at the video, analyze what they did when they braked.”
In a film conference room in the office building, the big screen was playing.
Looking at the riders on the factory bikes on the screen, both of them showed a look of longing. To ride a factory bike was undoubtedly an affirmation of a rider’s skill.
“I’m asking you to look at their braking actions, not their bikes!”
Lin Yan’s voice came through.
“Leg out during cornering!”
“Hmm… not only did they extend their legs, but it seems they also shifted their bodies backward when braking.”
Yan Xiaoqiang and Jiang Qiyan snapped back to attention and looked closely, speaking one after the other.
Only thirty people on the entire Blue Star could stand on this circuit. Thinking about it now felt like a pipe dream.
“What else?”
These two were easy to spot. Lin Yan wanted them to observe carefully and find all the details.
“Straighten the body before braking, using the body to increase air resistance for braking.”
“They seem to… not have been sitting on the seat the entire time!”
It was said that girls were more meticulous than boys. After watching for two laps, Jiang Qiyan noticed that these riders were almost never sitting on their seats.
It wasn’t that they weren’t sitting, but rather…
It was that their bodies were too flexible, as if they weren’t sitting on the seats.
“Yes, you saw correctly. When they ride, their bodies are not on the seats, but they grip the racing bikes with their legs. From today onwards, you will ride like this during training.”
Pointing at the screen, Lin Yan said calmly. The Genius Youth Cup race was still a week away, and he wanted to give these two riders special training.
After the observation, Lin Yan had Yan Xiaoqiang and Jiang Qiyan get on two simulators in the room.
“So tired!”
Without even riding, just holding the fuel tank with their legs, Yan Xiaoqiang couldn’t hold on for even ten minutes. Jiang Qiyan was the same. Although they looked the same from the outside, they weren’t sitting on the bikes this time, and it was much more strenuous than before.
“Do you know why I asked you to do this?”
“No.”
The two said in unison. They really didn’t know the use of such a strenuous method. Wasn’t it the same effect as sitting on the seat?
Who rides a bike without sitting on the seat? Isn’t that asking for trouble?
Jiang Qiyan also didn’t quite understand. Could not sitting on the seat make their bodies as flexible as the GP riders in the video?
“This is a way to improve rhythm. Your current bike displacement is small, and the rhythm is very slow, so you can’t perceive the use of this. But once you come into contact with high-displacement racing bikes or even factory bikes, their rhythm on the track will be very fast. If you move around on the seat frequently, by the time your body is out of position, the car will already be entering the corner, and you won’t have time to adjust your body.”
“Jiang Qiyan, how did you see that they weren’t sitting on the seats just now?”
Lin Yan asked Jiang Qiyan.
“Consecutive corners, their movements were different from mine.”
Jiang Qiyan replied without hesitation. She hadn’t actually seen it; it was impossible to tell. She just felt that the riders’ movements in the consecutive corners were as smooth as if they weren’t sitting on the seats.
Lin Yan nodded.
Next, Lin Yan demonstrated what rhythm was.
Lin Yan chose the A Country Station, a circuit with many consecutive corners. This circuit required a very high sense of rhythm from the riders.
Starting the acceleration, Yan Xiaoqiang and Jiang Qiyan watched from the side.
At this moment, Lin Yan’s body appeared to be sitting on the seat, but in reality, he was gripping the car body with both legs. There was a gap between his buttocks and the seat, but this gap was very small, not even the thickness of a book.
Even though it was a simulator, the acceleration of the factory bike was still terrifyingly fast.
The car quickly reached the first corner. Lin Yan began to brake. As he gripped the brake lever, Lin Yan’s previously lowered body straightened up from the seat.
