Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 248

An official was carefully measuring the distance between the rear wheel and the finish line. A moment later, the conclusion was announced. J’s car had crossed the line by exactly three centimeters.

“J’s result is valid! The winner of this race is J, representing Orient Country!”

The only remaining mystery was how J had managed to cross the finish line with such precision and escape the car just moments before it exploded. As other countries began to question the result, the race committee, following protocol, played the footage from the dashcam.

On the video, J could be seen pushing the car to its limits the moment the fire started. This reckless acceleration caused the fuel tank to overheat, which would lead to an explosion, but it also generated a massive increase in thrust, making the car faster than a normal acceleration would allow. In essence, the fire itself was propelling the car forward.

As for J’s escape… all the other racers leaned in, their eyes glued to the screen, not wanting to miss a single detail. Ten seconds before the final explosion, J had done the unthinkable. J had cut the brake lines, using the resulting loss of hydraulic pressure to counteract the force of the throttle. One wrong move and it would have accelerated the explosion. But this was J. In the final seconds, J controlled the steering perfectly, calculating the exact moment the car would cross the finish line. Then, J kicked open the door and rolled out onto the asphalt. The instant J hit the ground, the car blew up in a plume of smoke and fire.

When the footage ended, the racers in the room were speechless. A madman’s plan could only be executed by a madman. Anyone else would have given up out of fear. But J had gambled with life, and J had won. They had to admit, they were completely and utterly outclassed.

“Where’s J?” the racers finally snapped out of their stupor, looking around. “And Melvin’s gone too.”

“Are there any further objections to the race results?” an official asked.
