Chapter 470: Collapse
"Wait, I'll turn on the TV now. ”
Lily's sleepiness had long since disappeared, and after a while, Su Mu heard her say, "Oh my God, the World Trade Center and the Empire State Building have been hit, and the entire top of the Empire State Building has collapsed, and both buildings are on fire!"
"I also want to find out what's wrong, just now the bodyguards killed a man with a gun in Central Park, are there still a lot of gangsters entering New York?"
"Wait a little longer......"
Lily continued to tune in, and almost every TV station was reporting on the incident urgently, and she soon found the news she wanted to know, telling Su Mu, "That's right, the fighter jets are already here."
There were more than 20 explosions in New York, and some people rushed into the crowd with bombs strapped to them! In other places, the gates of Los Angeles were blown down, and in Atlanta, there were several explosions at the end of a concert, killing many people!"
Su Mu imagined the situation to be very bad, but judging from these situations, it was estimated that it was even worse, New York was in chaos, other cities were also attacked, and he wondered if the United States was being attacked by other countries.
But if it was an attack, the scale should not be so small, and the air defense sirens did not sound or anything.
Now.
One more plane is heading towards New York, and two other airliners are approaching Washington, D.C., when they accidentally blow up just as they are approaching the city!
When he heard the news, Su Mu guessed that it was the military's fighter jet that did it, since the passengers on the passenger plane were already doomed to death, in order to avoid making the situation worse and threatening more lives, the military would directly destroy the passenger plane.
It is why airlines tell passengers that they must resist in the event of a vicious hijacking, because if they feel dangerous, the military will not be able to protect the passengers in the cabin, but will perceive it as a threat.
A group of people continued to stay in Central Park, and the entire sky over New York City had been controlled, and the bodyguards notified the police, and soon sent a bunch of NYPD SWAT officers to escort their helicopter out of New York, and the destination was Newark, not far from Manhattan Island.
In mid-air, Su Mu saw the commotion of the crowd below more clearly, and the two buildings that were on fire after being hit by the plane, when he called Mr. Sean again, this time no one answered, and he suddenly had the worst guess.
The building caught fire, and only a few people were burned to death, and many more died because of the smoke, and they could have died after three or four minutes in the thick smoke of the fire, and they had been trapped in the building for more than 20 minutes.
On the side of the World Trade Tower, several successful people in suits jumped from the tall building at this time, and the South Building of the World Trade Center was already shaking, and it could collapse at any time, and they knew that there was no hope of survival, and this was not an escape, but a search for relief.
In fact, when it comes to air strikes, this is not the first time for the United States.
Back in December 1988, a Pan Am airliner flying from Frankfurt, Germany, to Detroit, USA, became the target of a terrorist attack.
Pan Am suffered a major setback and declared bankruptcy three years later after a sudden explosion over the Scottish border town of Lockerbie, killing more than 200 people.
The tragedy was definitely not as serious as this one, Su Mu witnessed the whole process of the collapse of the South Tower of the World Trade Center, and the smoke that kicked off obscured a large block, and the Empire State Building, the building was also crumbling, and he wanted to help them with something, but at this time he couldn't help anything, except for praying that many people had been evacuated......
Sean is not dead.
He lost his mobile phone while escaping, and he and a group of companions were lucky enough to find a passage, and ran all the way down, running more than 40 floors, some people fell behind, some people sprained their feet, he didn't care.
At this time, he couldn't care so much, his own escape was the most important, the building was shaking, the more he ran like this, the faster he ran, he was nearly fifty years old, and he had not exercised so vigorously for more than twenty years, but fortunately, he ran out of the building, and saw someone jumping down and falling into a puddle of mud, and a guy almost hit him, splashing his brain plasma and blood foam.
Knowing that the building might collapse, he didn't stop, kept running, kept running, ran out of a block, a block or two, and then he really had no strength, his face was covered with black ash and dust, his spit was dyed black, and he squatted at the mouth of the alley and hugged his head and cried, what happened that day was a disaster for him!
The south building collapsed, hitting the north building, making the north building also crumbling and toppling, and it was possible to collapse at any time, and at this time the Empire State Building also fell, and the two Manhattan landmarks fell on the same day, and the dust was overwhelming.
Spurred on by the loud noise, Mr. Sean burst into tears, knowing that there were many people who had not escaped, and even hundreds of firefighters who had only entered later, and that no one had thought that the Empire State Building would fall before that.
......
Sitting in a helicopter and looking back at the island of Manhattan, the splendor and glory were obscured by the dust that covered the sky with the collapse of two tall buildings.
After Su Mu reported Lily's safety again, he received a call from Wall Street's Galaxy Investment Company and learned that three employees had been killed in the explosion, and that there were still corpses on the street, and many people had died.
I can't help but be afraid, because he was also on Wall Street just now, and he was preparing to die in the Traders Tower, and his scope of activities belonged to high-end areas, and no one would care about them in the other party's attack, such as the Brooklyn area, which is dominated by the poor.
Fortunately, no one around him was injured, and he escaped from Manhattan smoothly and was transferred to safety under the escort of the military by helicopter.
Gunfire still rings out on Manhattan Island.
Evlov fled after shooting the crowd, wearing ordinary clothes, taking off his hood and blending into the crowd, and even stealing a schoolbag as a cover to make himself look more like an ordinary student, the streets were full of cars, no one was sitting in them, and the drivers fled.
The collapse of the World Trade Center, the collapse of the Empire State Building, he was extremely excited, and there was still something to be done, Yevlov was going to take revenge on his classmates, and after entering the small house he rented temporarily, he put on clothes full of explosives, and knelt on the ground praying for something.
He was about to die, but his heart was extremely calm, in his opinion, he was doing the right thing, in order to help his compatriots take revenge, for a better future, but not long after he went out, a police officer targeted Yevlov, just this face, let the police think that he was suspicious, not to mention that the bulging clothes did not fit the season's dress.
Without running away, Yevlov rushed to the policemen and pulled down the buckle, sending a burst of flames into the sky......
