Chapter 364: Not even a chance
Fujiwara Takumi's proposal was agreed by Hanazawa, and the two immediately asked Karao Izawa to arrange the venue for the competition.
Tang Xiong Yi Ze looked at Fujiwara Takumi and Hanazawa and asked seriously, "Do you really want to compete? Then I will take you to my newly built racetrack. If you don't want to compete, it's not too late to regret it now."
Fujiwara Takumi and Hanazawa exchanged glances, nodded firmly, and said to Tang Xiong Yi Ze: "We are determined to have a team race. Please take us to your new racing track."
Seeing the two men's firm attitude, Tang Xiong Yize realized that this was not a joke, so he agreed: "Okay, follow me."
Tang Xiong Yi Ze drove in front, Fujiwara Takumi and Hanazawa then arranged the transportation, and the group went to a racing track in the mountains, which was newly built by Tang Xiong Yi Ze and was used specifically for competition training, so it came in handy.
Everyone followed Tang Xiong Yi Ze to the racing track in the mountains. Tang Xiong Yi Ze told Fujiwara Takumi and Hanazawa: "This is where you will race. You can familiarize yourself with the environment based on the track terrain. I will close the racing track in a while to ensure that no one will interfere before the race."
Just like that, under the leadership of Tang Xiong Yize, everyone came to the racing track hidden in the mountains, and a new contest was about to begin.
Fujiwara Takumi and Hanazawa climbed to a higher place and carefully observed the terrain where the race was about to be held, and then left the place. Tang Xiong Yi Ze arranged for people to seal the racetrack to prevent dust from flying. Outsiders could only enter when the race officially started.
Fujiwara Takumi arrived at the rest area prepared for them by Karao Ichizawa, and soon after, the two brothers Hojo Go and Hojo Rin also arrived. Seeing that Fujiwara Takumi was about to go to battle again for their matter, they apologized to him: "I'm so sorry, it's all because of the trouble we caused that you have to clean up the mess."
Fujiwara Takumi waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing to worry about, and said: "We are all friends, why should we worry about it. Let's quickly discuss how to deal with the game later."
Mika Uehara volunteered and said to Takumi Fujiwara: "This time we will have a team of three, so count me in."
Fujiwara Takumi glanced at Uehara Mika and shook his head gently: "Don't participate this time. Hojo Rin, Hojo Go and I will form a team to compete with Hanazawa and the others."
Uehara Mika looked puzzled and asked Fujiwara Takumi: "Why can't I participate in this competition?"
Fujiwara Takumi waved his hands again and said firmly: "No reason, you can't participate in the competition anyway, do you understand?"
Without giving Uehara Mika a chance to ask again, Fujiwara Takumi took Hojo Rin and Hojo Go out of the rest area and went to where the cars were parked to start the pre-race inspection.
After everything was ready, Tang Xiong Yi Ze announced: "Meijia Uehara and I will serve as referees, and the game will begin."
As Tang Xiong Yize gave the order, Hua Ze's convoy instantly shot out like an arrow.
Hojo Rin saw that Hanazawa's team started running, but he remembered Fujiwara Takumi's strategy and did not rush to catch up. Instead, he followed Fujiwara Takumi closely and drove steadily.
Before the race, Tang Xiong Yi Ze gave them time to prepare. Fujiwara Takumi studied the track terrain, formulated a strategy, and shared the plan with Hojo Rin and Hojo Go before the race.
Takumi Fujiwara discovered that the race route wound through the mountains, and part of the road was extremely bumpy, especially near the starting point where there were many bends, which was not conducive to the car sprinting at full speed immediately.
Therefore, Fujiwara Takumi decided not to rush into a head-on confrontation with Hanazawa, after all, the race track is not about how fast you start, but the overall strategy. His plan is to use the subsequent relatively flat sections to accelerate and overtake after passing the initial complex section, so that he has a great chance of catching up with or even overtaking Hanazawa's team.
Although Hojo Rin really wanted to abandon Hanazawa at the start of the race to give him a warning, between his own ideas and Fujiwara Takumi's advice, he trusted Fujiwara Takumi's judgment in racing more, so he followed the plan and, together with Fujiwara Takumi, maintained a steady speed on the initial rugged road.
The convoy of Hanazawa's gang was just ahead of the turn, and the cars were drifting back and forth like they were ice skating.
Hanazawa's men looked behind them and didn't see any traces of Fujiwara Takumi and Hojo Rin. They said to Hanazawa in confusion: "Boss, Fujiwara Takumi and the others are not following us. Is there something fishy going on? Should we be more careful?"
Hanazawa turned his head and looked in the rearview mirror. There were indeed only his own people behind him. Fujiwara Takumi and Hojo Rin's cars were nowhere to be seen. This made him wonder, so he told his teammates, "Yeah, they didn't catch up. They might have some big moves in mind. We should be cautious."
At the other end of the track, Fujiwara Takumi and Hojo Rin were driving slowly. Later, the road became more and more winding, and their car began to shake, all because of the potholes on the road. Only when they reached a flat place could Fujiwara Takumi and his car return to normal.
Fujiwara Takumi was afraid that Hojo Rin and Hojo Go's cars would not be able to adapt to this kind of road, so he used the points in the system to reinforce the three people's cars, allowing Hojo Rin and Hojo Go's cars to run steadily even on such a bumpy road, which gave everyone a lot more sense of security.
Turning left and right, Fujiwara Takumi and his team finally passed the bumpy road and arrived at a relatively flat track. Fujiwara Takumi looked at the smooth road in front of him and knew that the opportunity had come. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and the car soared.
Because Tang Xiong Yi Ze installed trackers on Fujiwara Takumi and Hanazawa's racing cars, Uehara Mika and Tang Xiong Yi Ze can know the current location of Fujiwara Takumi and others through the tracker information displayed on the computer at the starting point or the end point.
Mika Uehara noticed that the cars of Fujiwara Takumi and Hojo Rin were moving slowly at the beginning, and then they accelerated suddenly when the road became flat. She didn't understand why Fujiwara Takumi was so slow. After all, Fujiwara Takumi never explained it to her, so she turned to Karao Izawa for his opinion.
Tang Xiong Yi Ze knew the reason why Fujiwara Takumi did this, so he explained to her: "Fujiwara Takumi did this purely for safety reasons, you don't have to take it too seriously."
After hearing Tang Xiong Yize's explanation, Uehara Mika finally relaxed and began to concentrate on observing the development of the event.
Hojo Rin and Hojo Go, who were following closely behind Fujiwara Takumi, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom when they saw Fujiwara Takumi driving into a flat road, and the car accelerated instantly. The two brothers knew that this was a signal from Fujiwara Takumi.
Since Fujiwara Takumi has already sped up, he once mentioned that once he speeds up, Hojo Rin and Hojo Go will have to keep up with his pace, in simple terms, they will have to adjust according to his speed.
Therefore, as soon as Fujiwara Takumi speeded up, the two brothers Hojo Rin and Hojo Go naturally had to follow closely, step on the accelerator to the limit, and speed up.
