It was Colin driving the Audi while Kraven sat in the front passenger seat.
Meanwhile, Nathan was resting with his eyes closed in the back seat.
While driving, Colin said to Nathan, “President Cross, we've caught up with them.”
Nathan opened his eyes and said lightly, “Okay. Colin, we're now acting in secret, so don't address me as the President. You can just call me Mr. Cross.”
“Okay!” Colin responded.
The three Cadillacs were moving really fast. They did not slow down even when they passed by the speed bump at the intersection and just ran over it.
Inside one of the cars, Black Skull was sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed. His body swayed slightly as the car went over the bump. It was unsure whether he was merely resting or sleeping.
Suddenly, the driver said, “Boss, something isn't right.”
Black Skull opened his eyes and said slowly, “What's wrong?”
The driver looked at the rear-view mirror and said with a frown, “An Audi has been following us since we left the mayor's residence.”
Black Skull frowned. “Are they Mueller's people?”
The driver responded, “I'm not sure.”
Black Skull curled his lips into a sneer. “Test and see if they're really following us.”
“Noted!”
With that, the driver turned on the convoy's walkie-talkie to talk to the drivers of the other two Cadillacs. “Attention! Attention! The car behind us is suspected to be following us. Let's get ready to test whether they're really after us.”
After he finished speaking, he slammed his foot against the accelerator.
The car let out a roar like a furious beast and suddenly rushed forward.
