888 Hostage incident
This is not a battle between special law enforcement agencies at all, this is worse than a battle between little hooligans, and they know that the disaster will not affect their families, and these people are simply shameless to the extreme - in addition to Yu Ting, they even targeted the staff of Li Huan's crew, and those staff members are all innocent!
This news came too timely - if it wasn't for this news in time, he might really cause more serious consequences, Li Huan didn't expect that this guy would be able to make such a big battle for himself. Taking hostages to threaten oneself is really worse than those little hooligans! This is not the style of a special law enforcement agency at all -- no wonder they all say that the Sunset Society is born in black work, and this is their consistent style.
Just when Li Huan sighed that the news came in time, he suddenly heard a gunshot under his feet.
Li Huan is a spirit...... Could it be that they have already come?
Li Huan immediately listened carefully, yes, in this building, someone was shooting.
Judging from the direction of the gunshots and the content of the conversation just now, Li Huan didn't have to guess, it must be that these people were right, they didn't know where they came from, and even Li Huan suspected that he had already been targeted, and these people had already sneaked into the hotel. This is not an impossible thing, if you want to deal with yourself carefully, you will know that the staff of these crews have a relationship with Li Huan - after all, now Li Huan is pulling a large army, unlike when he went out to hunt for treasure with Li Ang Rodman, several people are easy to hide, and it is impossible to hide dozens of people.
Bang bang!
A few more gunshots rang out, and then Li Huan, who had a sensitive ear, heard the screams of the crowd coming from the building.
Li Huan began to regret that he didn't do a mental scan when he arrived at the hotel just now, if he hadn't been so careless, this scene wouldn't have happened - and now it's too late to say anything, because there are too many staff members staying in the hotel, and when he just watched the tidbits, Li Huan roughly counted, at least about forty people.
The number of people is the problem, and the biggest problem.
If these people kidnapped one or two people, Li Huan dared to guarantee that they would never get out of this hotel alive. But if they use the crew to threaten Li Huan, then Li Huan's head will hurt a little, because the number of staff is too much. Listen to their conversation, and in two minutes they can strap plastic bombs to everyone's body and set up triggers, which they are obviously veterans of doing a lot. Of course, if they just threatened Li Huan with bombs, Li Huan would not be so afraid, because as long as a spirit shocked past, these people would all become idiots. Li Huan must have done this kind of dirty behavior, he didn't have to bother to clean them up at all, and it was even likely to be ordinary people - this is not an impossible thing, look at the treasure hunters before, aren't they also ordinary people?
If that's the case, then it's troublesome, it's impossible for Li Huan to use a large-scale mental shock to deal with them, because Li Huan also heard a terrible word in the signal of their conversation - the Dead Hand System!
These people are like Professor Chinov, they have no intention of going back alive at all, they only have tasks in their minds, if they really bind this system to all the bombs, then Li Huan will feel that there is nothing to think about - no matter who planned this operation, this guy is simply too despicable, it can't be said to be despicable, it's just a bunch of scum.
The so-called dead hand system is actually a general term, it is a system in which "as soon as a person dies, something set by the deceased will happen".
The Dead Hand system, which many people know, is the so-called nuclear binding system, the full name of which is the "Dead Hand System", also known as the "limbic system", whose official name is Perimeter, and some people also call it MertvayaRuka/The Hand of Death. This is an automated nuclear counterattack system first established by the Soviet Union in the early 80s during the Cold War, and then joined by other nuclear powers, and is also a major component of nuclear binding. But as with the nuclear bundle itself, its very existence is in doubt.
The Dead Hand system is designed to automatically attack a pre-set target in the event that the head of state, the command organ, and the grassroots operators directly carrying out the nuclear counterattack are eliminated or lost, regardless of whether the target is the attacker or not. That is to say, once a country is destroyed by a saturation nuclear strike, and the central decision-making capability and nuclear counterattack capability are eliminated or paralyzed by a nuclear assault, the "dead hand system" will automatically issue a nuclear code and nuclear strike instructions to launch a saturation nuclear strike against all nuclear-armed countries and even conventional industrial countries in the world, which will further induce the death hand system of other nuclear powers, resulting in a full-scale nuclear war covering the whole world, and further ensuring that there is no third-party beneficiary in a nuclear war, so as to avoid an excessive power gap between the surviving forces after a nuclear war.
A strong nuclear arsenal and a mature nuclear counterattack capability can build a Dead Hand system, and the triggering of the Dead Hand system requires the destruction of the country by a saturation nuclear strike and the loss of the ability to manually execute a nuclear counterattack, so any nuclear fraud of a limited scale cannot trigger the death hand system of a nuclear power.
And the dead hand system that these people call is much lower, but it is also simpler, crude and effective, and it doesn't need any upper and lower limits at all- For example, you can often see such a scene in Hollywood movies, there is a bank robber who walked out of the bank with a group of people, he swaggered in front of the front to bargain with the police, and did not care about the sniper on the roof, and had already aimed 8 sniper rifles at his head, because he knew that even if there were 10,000 guns aimed at his head, as long as these people wanted the life of the hostages, then they would not dare to shoot- In fact, the reason is very simple, it is not that he has superpowers, but that he is holding a grenade in his hand that has opened the pull ring, but has not loosened the latch.
Grenades and grenades. The bullet is different, when the instructor in the army explains the use of the grenade, he will pull off the safety bolt, but as long as he presses the grip with his finger and does not let go, the grenade will not explode. This action is actually very dangerous, even the instructor can't guarantee that there will be no mistakes - so most instructors will immediately pull the safety bolt back after demonstrating the safety of the grenade, so that the grenade will not explode after he lets go, in fact, the safety bolt is the last safety measure stuck between the grip and the fuse - the reason why the bank robber dares to swagger out is because he must have pulled out the safety bolt in his hand, but the grenade that has not been released while holding the grip pad.
If you dare to kill him, it doesn't matter, the moment he dies, he will definitely let go, and the hostage will die, this is the so-called dead hand system. Of course, Li Huan believes that these people will not use such a low-level dead hand system, otherwise it will be too embarrassing for the sunset. As far as Li Huan has heard of the cases, there are also those who use their own heartbeat to stop as the trigger condition of the dead hand system, which is even more inexplicable - if these people use their own heartbeat or brain wave cessation as a condition to trigger the dead hand, it is really unsolvable......
Because even if Li Huan burned all of their brains in an instant, there would be no way to stop the Dead Hand System from activating, and Li Huan didn't know what conditions their Dead Hand System was setting, if it was their heartbeat or brain waves, then Li Huan would have to pay a lot of price if he wanted to solve this matter......
......
One hundred and fifty nautical miles away from Manila, on and off an unnamed island, a speedboat was approaching another island at high speed — Li Huan guessed right, this is the guy who controls communications with long-range directional jamming. This guy came out of the Sunset Notice, and not long ago, he sold the vice president to Aegis in exchange for the Alliance's Sunset President Jefferson.
"This guy named Li Huan is really a bit powerful, he can actually track my signals...... I've already used a military jammer, and he can find my channel correctly among tens of millions of channels, so in this way, Aegis and Abraham have lost the battle before, this person is probably a person who is proficient in modern science in addition to being very strong in cultivation......" Jefferson looked at the island that appeared on the horizon, reoriented himself, and drove towards the island, muttering to himself as he drove it: "But what about tracking my signal?" I can change the channel at any time, I don't believe that you are so lucky to be able to find this channel every time, and what if you find the channel, you dare to keep up?"
This is the difference between Jackson and others, although he has absolute confidence in his own strength, he is the kind of person who does not show up until the critical moment
The man with his hands, this is probably a habit he has developed for so many years at the sunset party, always like to push others to the foreground, and he hides in the back. Even with his strength, Jefferson was reluctant to clash head-on. After discovering the signal that Li Huan could track him, he immediately abandoned one island and headed for the next.
It's not that he doesn't feel that he has the strength to be tough with this young man named Li Huan, but that he doesn't feel that there is a need for this. It's been so many years since the Commandery's Evening Message...... He is used to what can be solved by stratagem, so he will never do it.
That's right, that's Jefferson's style of fighting.
He had come to the Philippines a few days earlier, and the old fox, with his connections, had done a little investigation, and he knew more than anyone else knew. It only took him a day to confirm that the things he wanted had been taken away, and there was nothing left, and the person who took the things was Li Huan. And very coincidentally, after this young man named Li Huan took these things, he did not leave the Philippines immediately, but stayed in a local hotel - with him, there were also some Chinese.
The crew was already famous, and with a little investigation, Jefferson was able to track down the movies the crew was working on — and the bosses behind them.
As for how did he know about these things...... Jefferson naturally had his own connections.
What is the Xizhao Party for? It is specialized in doing dirty work that is not seen, and this old fox has been in charge of the Xizhao Society for so many years, and no one knows what dirty secrets he knows, whether it is a high-ranking government official or a rich tycoon in Citigroup, maybe there are secrets and truths in his hands.
It's like this time, Abraham wants this treasure, and he must send a treasure hunter to find a clue, although this clue is also left by his predecessors, but he doesn't know where the treasure is buried in the right place, so he still needs to look for it and look at Jefferson, he didn't need any clues and went directly to the church, and when he found that the church was hollowed out, he reacted immediately. He is not as impulsive as Abraham, Jefferson is a scheming old fox, he doesn't want to clash with Li Huan head-on, because although he knows that his strength may be higher than Li Huan, but Li Huan has done so many earth-shattering things over the years, he must have a good strength - besides, this place is too close to China, if there is trouble here, the people of the Red Sea trade will definitely pour out, you must know that now the sunset has become a water dog, and the Red Sea trade is very good at beating water dogs.
Therefore, Jefferson inquired about all Li Huan's relations in the Philippines, and his channels were naturally stricter than those of Li Ang and Rodman. It seems that this kind of old fox and his channels are not known to ordinary people at all, no matter how well Rodman's whereabouts are hidden, he will eventually leave clues - after knowing that Li Huan took Yu Ting and a crew to stay in a hotel in the Philippines, Jefferson arranged today's plan.
He didn't want to prove the conflict with Li Huan, let alone recruit the people from the Red Sea trade, so he planned to use the people around Li Huan to threaten him, this was his current strategy, so Jefferson arranged a continuous plan.
However, the first step of this plan failed, and now it seems that Yu Ting has gone to Manila International Airport, although the relationship with Jefferson can also find a chance at Manila International Airport, but this will be too conspicuous. And according to the analysis report, Li Huan is a person who values friendship very much, and it is the easiest to deal with people who value affection - in addition to Yu Ting, there are so many staff members staying in the hotel, Jefferson is not worried about having no chance at all, so he simply let Yu Ting go, and he aimed at those staff - it is not a bad way to use these crew members to control Li Huan.
It's just that there was a small episode in this plan, he planned to hide on an island to remotely control Li Huan's behavior, but Li Huan immediately detected the signal channel he used, which made Jefferson a little surprised. So he had to change to other places, hide on other islands, and the waters where Jefferson was located were definitely the most complicated and most islanded on the Philippine border.
To put it simply, it would be difficult to find a person who was hidden on an island in the Philippines – the name of the country of a thousand islands was not called for nothing. The Philippines, known as the Thousand Islands, has recently discovered more than 400 new islands, increasing the number of islands in the country from 7,107 to more than 7,500, while several new islands have been discovered, each with only three or two indigenous people.
How to put it, the Philippines is an island country in Southeast Asia, located in the southeast of Asia. It is separated by the Bass Strait to the north and Taiwan Province of China. It faces Indonesia and Malaysia in the south and southwest across the Sulawesi Sea and the Balabac Strait. It is bordered by the South China Sea to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the east. There are 7,500 large and small islands, of which 2,400 have names and more than 1,000 have inhabitants, with a total area of 299,700 square kilometers, and 11 major islands such as Luzon, Mindanao and Samar account for 96% of the total area of the country.
And then the rest, God doesn't know what the name is or where it is.
So after Jefferson found out that his signal was cracked, he immediately changed to an island, trying to find a person on an uninhabited island in the waters of the Philippines, and the workload was absolutely amazing. Although Jefferson also believes that Li Huan has the ability to find him, to put it bluntly, it is a matter of time before he destroys Li Huan's psychological defense first, or Li Huan finds him first.
......
Let's not mention overseas matters for the time being, because Li Huan doesn't have the energy to find this guy now, and he is now thinking about how to solve the matter in the hotel building.
Especially after hearing the discussion on the other party's walkie-talkie, Li Huan heard the gunshots almost immediately, and he knew that these people had succeeded. In the face of a group of ordinary kidnappers, Li Huan didn't dare to do it directly, because they had a dead hand system on them, so Li Huan didn't dare to act rashly. If a large-scale spiritual force hits the past and burns all their brains, it is possible to detonate the bombs on the hostages, which is very troublesome - these guys are trained to know how to deal with cultivators, so the people who know how to deal with cultivators must be sent by special law enforcement agencies, so their identities are basically condemned to death.
Li Huan would rather deal with people with special abilities, and he is not willing to deal with these ordinary people who have been trained by people with special abilities, because people with special abilities often rely too much on their own strength and appear very arrogant in some aspects, at this time Li Huan can always find their weaknesses and then defeat these guys, but these guys who have been trained by people with special abilities are very difficult to deal with when dealing with cultivators, they know almost all the habits of cultivators, and when dealing with cultivators, because they are too weak, they are never arrogant- And because they themselves are too weak and know that they are not the opponents of cultivators, they will even bring some high-tech weapons, and these weapons are actually not much weaker than the cultivators' jurisprudence, so these guys are the most difficult to deal with.
But Li Huan now has to deal with such a group of people.
He walked slowly downstairs.
If you want to say that the action is fast, Li Huan can jump directly from the upper floor to the first floor of the cafeteria, but now there is no need, hearing the gunshots below, Li Huan knows that this group of people has succeeded. So it's useless to go over quickly. He slowly walked in the direction of the cafeteria, and it was useless to rush over now.
When Li Huan walked downstairs, he was more sure of his judgment and the other party's hand. Because at this time there were a lot of panicked guests in the building, and they didn't care where the door was, they just blindly walked towards the safe passage, which was almost full of people. It's no wonder that just a few minutes ago, the elevator exploded in the hotel, and after the elevator car fell downstairs, the smoke and dust from the huge impact have not yet dispersed, and no one dares to take the elevator, so now the safe passage is full of people, full of panicked voices.
"Oh my God, I just wanted to come out for my honeymoon, why did this happen? I didn't talk about the typhoon a few days ago, why did I still encounter a terrorist incident in the hotel? What kind of kidnappers are there?"
"I will never come to this kind of hotel again, it is still the most luxurious hotel in the Philippines, even the security measures are not in place, even if the elevator falls, the shootings are starting to come out...... You don't want your life, I still want your life, if you can't leave, you get out of here, really not
Okay, just jump downstairs and don't get in everyone's way!"
"Help me, my child and I are separated, I can't see him, he's about eight or nine years old......"
"Where did your children go? It's none of our business, you stinky, don't get in the way, you don't want to live, we all want to live! Where can your children go to find themselves, but don't stand in the way of the stairs, didn't you hear the explosion in the hotel? And the gunshots? For the lives of your children alone, you can't afford to delay the lives of all of us here!"
Because of the panic caused by the explosion of the hotel elevator before, coupled with the sound of gunfire coming from the hotel behind, it seems that the hotel guests are crazy. Most of the people who can vacation here are people with a bit of wealth or middle class, who have struggled all their lives to get to this position, and naturally do not want to die here in vain. So they fled frantically, wanting to leave the hotel, because the elevator did not dare to take it, so they had to leave from the safe passage, in fact, the design of the safe passage is enough for everyone to exit the hotel building at the same time - but in this world there is no order, once there is no order, the passage that could have been used for everyone to retreat in an orderly manner was immediately blocked, and the people in front were desperately walking, and they still had time to get their luggage. But in order to hold their luggage, they blocked the escape space of the people behind, and the team behind them became even more panicked when they saw that the team in front of them did not move, and everyone frantically pushed and stamped...... If it goes on like this, it will be worse than the damage caused by those kidnappers!
For example, the woman who went against the flow of people to find her child, she was probably taking a shower when she woke up in the morning, and now she is just wearing a bathrobe. After being pushed by the flow of people, the strap of the bathrobe was loosened at this time, and she just wanted to subconsciously pull the bathrobe to block the spring light leaking out of her chest - she desperately wanted to go against the current, but how could those crazy people who walked out allow her to do so, so although she kept crying, she was still pushed out by the flow of people.
"What is this going to be...... The disaster is not the gunmen who came at them at all, they just want to kidnap the crew, so that they can only cause more stampede casualties if they run out in a hurry, don't they understand?" Li Huan shook his head and took a deep breath: "Don't mess up, everyone, leave in a safe and orderly manner!"
Li Huan's voice was very loud, but there was no way to organize a crazy crowd. No matter how loud the sound is, it can't cover the sound of the elevator falling to the ground and the gunshots that occurred in the hotel, they are all wealthy middle class, and the people who can consume this hotel have a certain economic strength, so they will not let people stop them, blocking their escape route before themselves.
Li Huan frowned when he saw this, he didn't want to meddle with things, and those gunmen were just targeting their crew, and they had nothing to do with these people. But Li Huan turned his head and thought again, this kind of thing happened because of his own responsibility, so he couldn't watch these people trample, anyway, he would go early and late, and those gunmen had already done the thing. Simply put order in order here again, so as not to cause more casualties.
Thinking of this, Li Huan took a deep breath and brought mental power: "Calm down for me and walk according to order! You look panicked like this, it will only cause a bigger stampede! Don't you see that poor mother? His child has been separated from him, what are you going to do? The target of those gunmen is not you, you don't need to be so alarmed, everyone can get out of the hotel safely, now I order you to follow the order, let the women and children leave first!"
Although there is no Xiao Fei's spiritual power, the entity Li Huan's spiritual power is awarded, but where can his spiritual power be resisted by ordinary people? This voice carried Li Huan's spiritual power and reached the ears of everyone in the stairwell, and everyone seemed to be stunned by this voice for a moment...... The terrible impact and stampede just now stopped instantly, and everyone's panicked shouts seemed to be covered by Li Huan's voice. This was the cultivator's absolute suppression of ordinary people, and even the panic was suppressed in Li Huan's shouts with spiritual power.
Soon the men seemed to regain their senses, and they began to form a retreat in an orderly manner, letting the old and weak women go first, and even the poor woman, who had been separated from the child, found her child. It turned out that he and his separated child were less than six or seven meters apart, but under the surging crowd just now, these six or seven meters were the moat, and she couldn't get over it at all. Now that the crowd had restored order on its own, the men made way for the poor mother to find her child.
"Thank you, kind sir. When the woman passed by Li Huan with the child in her arms, she glanced deeply at Li Huan, she didn't know where this young man's magic came from, but this voice did make her sober up a lot. Even the surging crowd had come to their senses under the warning just now, if it hadn't been for the sound he had just made, he and his children might never have seen each other.
Although there is only a distance of 7 meters, but in the situation of the crazy trampling of the crowd just now, a child doesn't want to come out alive at all, this is only the 17th floor, squeeze from the 17th floor and then to the front, the crowd will squeeze more fiercely, the child has no ability to protect himself at all, let alone a child, even if an adult is pushed down in this situation, then what awaits him is only death.
Li Huan nodded, he had already walked to the restaurant floor, glanced at the crowd that had become orderly, and closed the fire door on the restaurant floor.
As one of the most luxurious hotels in the Philippines, this kind of hotel has a special restaurant floor because of its comprehensive facilities, and in addition to accommodation, dining is also a highlight. And Li Huan The floor where they just had a meeting is the restaurant floor, and it is now breakfast time, so there are quite a lot of people on this floor - but Li Huan turned the fire door and came to the corridor on the restaurant floor to see a mess.
In the hallway of the dining room were overturned some that were supposed to be used to transport food, and the carts were toppled on the ground, and the plates were also overturned to the ground, and the floor was a mess, littered with fallen meals and trampled marks. Regardless of who sent them, whether or not they were sent by the people of the Evening Notes, the kidnappers were very experienced. The first thing they did before entering this floor was to cut off the power completely, and now that the lights on the floor had gone out, all that was left was a flashing, dazzling red fire light, which looked like it was going to be extremely oppressive.
As soon as Li Huan walked into this floor, he smelled a faint smell of gunsmoke, that's right, it was on this floor where the shooting was fired, Li Huan scanned it with his mental power, and there were about fifty or so people gathered in the breakfast restaurant, and it seemed that there were other people trapped in the breakfast restaurant besides his own employees. Originally, the kidnappers wanted to kidnap Li Huan's employees, but of course the more hostages, the better, these people were probably the people who dined in the restaurant after Li Huan and the others left, but the kidnappers who broke into the door were all pressed into the restaurant as hostages.
Although this group of kidnappers is not easy to deal with, Li Huan is more fortunate, because they are not cultivators, there is no way, they immediately feel that Li Huan has come to this floor, they are just waiting passively, this should be the mode of dealing with cultivators given to them by their trainers.
Since he didn't know that he would be able to take advantage of the situation when he came, he immediately released a sub-machine and turned on his mental power to check what was going on in the restaurant. After Xiaofei's sub-machine passed through the corridor, he came to the restaurant smoothly, filmed all the situation inside to Li Huan, and projected it onto Li Huan's virtual screen. And Li Huan's mental power was also fully opened, covering the distance of several kilometers around this hotel building, as long as there was a suspicious person approaching, he would know.
The situation is already very complicated and cannot be allowed to be complicated anymore.
Because Li Huan saw on the virtual screen that the situation in the restaurant was already very complicated - it was true that all his staff were detained in the breakfast room. In addition to his own staff, Li Huan also saw some various skins, probably businessmen or tourists from various countries, who were also detained in the restaurant. Li Huan counted carefully, and there were about 40 hostages taken prisoner, and the people who held these people were a group of well-armed men with well-equipped equipment.
They set up a loose guard formation and surrounded all the hostages in the middle.
If it was just like this, Li Huan would be able to solve them in half a second - but Li Huan saw a box wrapped in a plastic bag hanging from the hostage's chest - judging from the technique, these guys are real elites!
