Chapter 282 (1/2)
Human and Car Combined, Crows taking Flight!
As Xiao Chun spoke about her special “Angry Crow Takes Flight” move, she made it sound invincible. She even made a pose for the move, in order to show everyone what she meant by “Angry Crow Takes Flight,” but all she did was to use both her hands to form the wings of an imaginary bird…
Obviously, it was just Xiao Chun playing the fool, but it was perfectly normal for elementary school students to behave in this childish manner. If anyone is to complain and say that they were acting like immature middle school students, it would actually become a compliment instead, as they were still in elementary school. It is no surprise for kids this age to have wild imaginations.
When the male protagonist Zhang Haolie, who was also an elementary school student, learned of Xiao Chun’s new move, he took a step back in caution. He hardened his expression and raised his guard up, as if he had just been introduced to his greatest opponent ever. However, Zhang Haolie did not plan to back off. As the saying went, “one tends to become stronger when one’s opponent is strong,” he decided to see for himself how powerful this “Angry Crow Takes Flight” move really was.
Therefore, the both of them started racing each other. Xiao Chun was racing with her new mini 4WD, which she had named “The World’s Soaring Crow.” The exterior of the mini 4WD was similar to Batman’s car, Batmobile. Everyone should know how magnificent the Batmobile looked. Even Zhang Haolie thought that his good friend’s mini 4WD looked cool!
Just turning up looking good, Xiao Chun had already gained the upper hand over this race!
However, in the midst of the race, Zhang Haolie was suddenly dumbfounded!
Zhang Haolie did not expect it to be so slow. A mini 4WD with such an amazing exterior, and a fierce name like “The World’s Soaring Crow,” was moving at an unbelievably slow speed. What happened to the legendary “Angry Crow Takes Flight” move? Why isn’t Xiao Chun using it?
Zhang Haolie was used to being slow and trailing behind the other racers, especially at the beginning of the race. He would usually wait for the most crucial moment before he unleashes his powers and shouts something like “Go, The Last Saber[1]!” which unseals a certain curse in his mini 4WD, or acts as a stimulant for his mini 4WD to push itself beyond its limits. Once he unleashes the “Last Saber”[2], he usually pulls a tremendous form of victory off!
This time, however, Zhang Haolie did not expect to be in the lead, right from the start of the race. He had grown rather far ahead, and the distance between his mini 4WD and Xiao Chun’s mini 4WD was gradually growing. At this rate, even if he does not shout anything, he would easily win the race…
At that point in time, Xiao Chun, or rather, Zhao Youyue, was running alongside her mini 4WD, as if she had magical powers. She never felt tired, even after running for quite some time. No matter how far she ran, she did not sweat, pant, and her heart rate never went up. What is up with this superhuman ability?
If this magical buff[2] is used in the real world, wouldn’t full-length marathons be a piece of cake for her?
In actuality, Xiao Chun could not care less about winning or losing at all. She was satisfied with the sight of her “The World’s Soaring Crow,” her own mini 4WD Batmobile, move with such determination and grace. Her mini 4WD looked so cool, that it was able to capture the full attention of the viewers, which made her even more ecstatic!
Mini 4WD racing competitions are all about whichever is the fastest mini 4WD, but for Xiao Chun, it all came down on whichever mini 4WD looked the best!
All Xiao Chun wanted to do was to show off her glorious mini 4WD, not only to the viewers, but also to the scriptwriter, Tian Jun.
Tian Jun was a shareholder in a company which produces mini 4WD cars, and he had a knack for designing mini 4WD cars himself. When he gets too carried away, he would surely get out on a limb to ensure that the exterior of Xiao Chun’s mini 4WD cars are really the top of the line!
The race got boring, and Zhang Haolie grew tired of waiting. Impatiently, he said, “Xiao Chun, if you still do not use your special “Angry Crow Takes Flight” move, I am going to win for sure!”
Xiao Chun’s turned murderous. It seemed as if she was doing everyone a favor and sparing them from the deadly power of her special move. After a deep sigh, she said, “Are you really going to force me to use my death-dealing move?”
The audience could now see that Xiao Chun had a winning temperament, one which would be associated with a professional racer. At that moment, they knew that this female racer, who had such an impressive-looking mini 4WD, had to have a terrifying, deadly move!
They were absolutely right. Why would a mini 4WD, possessing an amazing exterior that looked similar to an exquisite work of art have no special function of its own?
Only those mass-produced mini 4WD cars, used by those trashy competitors would not have special functions. It was impossible for a mini 4WD car with an extraordinarily beautiful exterior like “The World’s Soaring Crow” to not have special functions. Xiao Chun was probably just waiting for the right moment to unleash the “Angry Crow Takes Flight” and win the race!
Xiao Chun’s unfaltering confidence had taken Zhang Haolie by surprise. Normally, in any race, Zhang Haolie would encounter a lot of obstacles in the beginning and end up far behind the opponent. However, in situations like that, he would never be worried, as he had his own unique style of racing. Nearing the end of the race, whenever the viewers are convinced of his impending defeat, he would make a sudden comeback that alters the flow of the whole competition!
