Chapter 292 Being followed
A full week after Lu Chen returned home, Fu Mingzhuo sent someone to deliver two brand new hunting rifles to the luxurious villa where Lu Chen lived. During this period, Gnandi had negotiated with Evelyn through an intermediary many times, but Evelyn never met him. The reason was that she received news from her family - the patriarch of the Washington family actually contacted her father through an intermediary.
What Evelyn didn't expect was that her father, after learning about this, not only doubted her order for the warship, but also questioned why she had not reported the relevant situation to the family in advance. Faced with her father's questioning, Evelyn had no choice but to return to Germany in a hurry to explain the whole story to her father in person.
Due to Evelyn's absence, Lu Chen decided to set off alone the next day after receiving the guns, leading Hans and others to rush to Dior's manor in Washington.
Since Washington was the base camp of Gnandi and his team, Lu Chen was very worried that he might encounter an unexpected situation. Therefore, when the group was about to set off, Lu Chen specifically told Hans, Locke, Martin and other companions to bring their semi-automatic rifles.
Not only that, in order to deal with various possible emergencies, Lu Chen also asked each of them to prepare ten additional magazines. After everything was ready, Lu Chen and his team drove out of the villa and rushed towards Washington.
Lu Chen's concerns were indeed correct. During this period, Pierdan had been planning how to deal with him. Pierdan specially invited professionals to conduct an in-depth investigation of several companies under Lu Chen. As Lu Chen expected, after thoroughly investigating the actual situation of these companies, Pierdan was shocked to realize that Lu Chen's company was definitely not something that ordinary people could easily shake.
Piltdown first used his connections to find out that Lu Chen's main industry in New York was the Lu's Textile Factory, so he decided to target the Lu's Textile Factory. He found some government officials, hoping that they could find out what was wrong with the Lu's Textile Factory, preferably by shutting it down for rectification.
However, these government officials rejected his request without hesitation. This made Pierdan very confused and puzzled. After some inquiries, he finally learned that the current New York Mayor James had a close relationship with Lu Chen and the two were very good friends. Not only that, Lu Chen also had close ties with New York Governor Franklin. What was even more surprising was that Lu Chen was a frequent visitor to Mr. Morgan's house!
After learning about these situations, Pierdan realized that Lu Chen's influence in New York was so strong. Facing such an opponent with a strong background and extensive connections, Pierdan had to reconsider his plan. He knew that if he continued to fight against Lu Chen, it would probably bring him more trouble. So he decisively gave up the idea of dealing with Lu Chen in New York and decided to find another way.
However, Pierdan did not completely give up on Lu Chen. He still sent people to help keep an eye on Lu Chen's every move, and report to him immediately if Lu Chen showed any signs of leaving New York. Pierdan believed that as long as he waited patiently, he would always find the right opportunity to deal with Lu Chen...
Therefore, when Lu Chen drove out of the house, he immediately attracted the attention of some people, who followed him from a distance.
Hans had been in the car for a while when he noticed something strange. He noticed that there was a car following them silently. So he reported the situation to Lu Chen without hesitation.
"Boss, I feel like something is wrong. It seems like there's a car following us."
Lu Chen was shocked when he heard this and asked anxiously, "Where are they? Who is following us? What do they want to do?"
Hans pursed his lips slightly and motioned Lu Chen to check the rearview mirror. Lu Chen quickly turned his head and looked at the rearview mirror beside him. However, he did not find any obvious abnormality in the following vehicle.
Hans said in a serious tone: "The third car behind us has been following us. I noticed this car when I left the villa. Now it is still following us."
Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately focused his attention and carefully observed the car pointed out by Hans. After observing for a while, he was surprised to find that no matter whether he turned or made a U-turn, the car always followed them like a shadow. Lu Chen's face gradually became gloomy, and a feeling of uneasiness surged in his heart. He began to wonder who was following him from behind.
The first person that came to Lu Chen's mind was the Yun family. He knew very well that he had a deep hatred with the Yun family. Considering this, Lu Chen was not surprised that the Yun family sent people to follow him and try to teach him a painful lesson. After all, Yun Bufan had once blocked his way with his car.
In addition to the Yun family, the second candidate that came to Lu Chen's mind was the guy named Chen from the Red Gate. Due to Yun Qingchen's instigation, the conflict between Lu Chen and the Chen family should not be underestimated.
In addition, there is another family that has a certain possibility, that is the Washington family. Now that Lu Chen holds so many shares of Lieqi Shipyard, the Washington family must have coveted them for a long time and tried to take back these shares. Therefore, they are also suspected of taking action.
Lu Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment, then turned to Hans and said:
"Can we somehow get rid of them?"
Hans tried, but soon found that these people were following closely. After trying for a while, Hans shook his head helplessly at Lu Chen and said:
"Boss, we couldn't get rid of the car behind us."
Lu Chen looked at the following vehicle again, and then instructed Hans:
"Hans, please find a place to park on the side of the road, and then we will get off together to meet these people who are following us."
After hearing Lu Chen's instructions, Hans drove the car to the side of the road without hesitation, his movements were neat and smooth. Then, he and his companions, like well-trained soldiers, picked up their guns as quickly as possible, got out of the car with a highly alert attitude, and kept a close eye on the vehicle following them.
At this time, the people who were following Lu Chen saw that Lu Chen had parked his car on the side of the road, and several people got out of the car with guns in hand, and they immediately realized that the situation was not good. However, they did not choose to stop the car as Lu Chen expected, but instead, they made a prompt decision, stepped on the accelerator, and sped past where Lu Chen and his group were.
