Chapter 147: A Glimmer of Life
Another purpose?
Naturally, four words immediately popped into my head...... Terrorist?!
"Those people, including Lamouche, seem to have no interest in jewelry, because they are simply a group of extremely dangerous people who are ready to do their best to carry out terrorist attacks...... Only these terrorists who 'see death as home' at any time will not be interested in these things outside their bodies! ”
These are Yang Wei's analyses.
And after the four she just said are added together, the context of the whole thing is almost obvious!
I immediately stood up, walked back and forth in the room twice, and looked at Yang Wei: "If they are terrorists......
Yang Wei raised his hand and lightly scratched it on his neck...... Her eyes were a little sunken: "Terrorist attacks, naturally, are meant to attract widespread attention!" In this way, you can hit the enemy to the maximum from [**] and psychologically! First of all, all the people gathered here tonight are Hollywood celebrities, big stars, representatives of big companies, investors, filmmakers...... These people are the focus of media attention all over the world. Just imagine...... Hollywood is now almost a cultural tool for American culture to invade the world! And these people, if they all die here tonight...... What will be the consequences? ”
The muscles in the corners of my eyes twitched...... The huge and powerful film industry and film economy in the United States will probably go back at least 30 years, if not immediately. And the destruction of the film economy will cause a series of chain reactions...... I am afraid that such a terrorist attack may not be inferior to the 911 incident!
"So, you mean, maybe they're going to take extreme measures?"
Yang Wei shook his head: "I'm just guessing...... Because the current analysis of this matter seems to be the case. Otherwise, ordinary robbers do not have such highly qualified personnel. But with this nondescript plan of action. ”
Well, if our assumptions are true, these people are terrorists who intend to carry out terrorist attacks...... So what will be done? Shoot and kill nearly 300 top people in the American film industry here?
"I think they're trying to get the eyeballs, to get the attention, to make things as big as possible." Yang Wei carefully analyzed: "So, they deliberately hijacked these people first. Then the news was announced, and the Jǐng side was contacted, negotiated, and confronted, and there was a buffer time, and this matter would be widely followed by various media around the world...... Believe it or not. Outside the isolation zone downstairs, I'm afraid there are already interview cars from major media around the world! I don't know how many cameras are pointed at our building! If in front of so many cameras...... There was a huge time of horror, and all of a sudden, everything here would become an image. Sound spreads to millions of households around the world on television and radio! And it is also a huge blow to the American people and the psychology of the United States. ”
"As for us. You see. They're not in a hurry to break through and come in here to catch us! Because I'm afraid, even if we hide here, as long as we don't run out of this floor...... The other party is sure. Kill us too......" Yang Wei whispered.
My conversations with her were conducted in Chinese, which did not cause any shock to others. It's just that Lei Xiaohu's has also changed a little, he opened his mouth, and then said with a wry smile: "God, Uncle Shi, we won't be so lucky, such a thing has also happened to us, right?" ”
I didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately walked in front of the computer, ignoring the eyes of others, and directly turned on the computer to contact the other party.
Soon, I got in touch with the Louis Jǐng officer.
He looked a little anxious and tired, but he looked calm.
"Louis Jǐng Official." I stared at the camera and said slowly, "I think there are some things that need to be talked to you!" ”
"Did something happen to you?" Louis jǐng frowned.
I thought about it for a moment and said, "No, not for the time being...... However, what I want to ask is, have you confirmed the identity of these bandits? They looked a lot like Middle Easterners, and only three of them were white. Have you been able to confirm the identities of these people? ”
My question was probably very strange, and Louis Jǐng thought about it for a moment and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"Answer me, our time is precious and we don't have a lot of power." I said slowly.
"Okay!" He said slowly: "There is no confirmation at the moment, but we have found out that they have passed through the food company that provided food for this exhibition." We found three food delivery vehicles belonging to that company in a warehouse in a nearby neighborhood, and about 11 of the company's employees in the three vehicles had all been shot dead. And we have reason to suspect that it was the food company's car that was intercepted by these people in the middle of the road, and then they killed the people of the food company and entered the building under their identity. And we have now found out that in the parking lot below the building, there is also a parking lot security guard who has been killed, and the body is in a car. The logo of the food company on the car is believed to have been modified and mixed in. The security guard probably found something and was killed. So far, the death toll has reached thirteen! ”
"Fifteen, I'm afraid." I added: "I saw with my own eyes that they killed two security guards in the makeshift kitchen. ”
Louis Jǐng was stunned, and then said: "We took footage of nineteen cameras in the parking lot, and then after analysis, we can determine the identities of three of the white people...... The one at the head is called Jack, who is an extremely dangerous person wanted by twelve states, has robbed banks thirteen times, nine of them successfully, killed six jǐng cha, four bank security guards, and two hostages! But the Lamouchi you mentioned, our identity has not yet been confirmed, and after we contacted him, someone had already entered his image into the computer to search for it...... It's a pity that his identity, in our control data, is ...... Zero! ”
Looking at the change in Louis Jǐng's eyes, I sighed and whispered, "You...... You must have guessed something, right? ”
The conversation I had with this jǐng cha was in English, and that was when it finally caught the attention of others. One of the men immediately exclaimed, "Oh my God, what the hell are you talking to him...... Is there anything wrong with the identity of the bandits? Hell, don't waste your computer's battery! ”
I glanced at the guy who hadn't realized that we were already dangerous, ignored him, and continued, "Louis Jǐng, you are more experienced than us, I believe you must have sensed something wrong, right?" Well...... Do they have anything to ask of you now? Can you tell me? ”
"This ......," he hesitated, and I immediately exclaimed, "Don't forget, we're in the building now!" So please tell me!! ”
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "They asked for the password to open the jewelry cabinet, and we have already had negotiators deal with this point, and we have no right to decide on these jewelry issues, so we are still deadlocked...... And they have already made, demanded...... Ask for their videos to be made public to the media. ”
I sighed.
That's it!
“…… If we don't accede to their demands, then in another half an hour, they will start killing hostages every ten minutes. And after an hour, it becomes two people every ten minutes. Louis Jǐng's official face was expressionless.
"So, what about the other requirements? Like, their request to evacuate? They won't be stupid enough to ask you for a car, because it's easy to block the road. They must have offered to ask for a helicopter, right? ”
"Yes!" Officer Louis Jǐng thought for a moment and said, "They did ask for a helicopter, and I think they planned to escape from the air, and when they escaped, they would take a group of hostages on the plane to prevent our air interception." ”
"They're stalling for time." Yang Wei's voice came from my side, she came to my side, Yang Wei's face was a little weak, and she said slowly: "I suspect that these people are terrorists, and they may have been ready to take extreme measures." Now it's just stalling for time to prevent the jǐng side from directly forcing a breakthrough after confirming their intentions! They now want to continue to stall and further expand the impact of this matter......"
Yang Wei's words were addressed to me, and she spoke in Chinese. I glanced back at her and nodded.
"You wait...... "Louis jǐng suddenly took the headphones and listened to it, and then his face was a little ugly: "The latest news...... They made a request...... They demanded that the video signal be made available to the media...... And a request was made...... Damn it! These people really aren't bandits! They are terrorists!! I'm going to walk away, and I'll be in touch with you in five minutes!! ”
After saying that, Louis Jǐng hurriedly walked away.
I turned off the screen and switched back into battery saver mode.
I glanced at Yang Wei and found that her body was trembling slightly...... She was clearly not afraid, but weak.
"What the hell is wrong with you? Tell me! I gently hugged her waist, felt Yang Wei's body a little soft, and helped her aside.
Yang Wei shook her head, her breath was a little short, and her face was even more red: "Xiao Wu, you listen well." We're afraid we'll have to find a way to get out of here...... Yes, I'm right. From now it seems, I have reason to suspect that these people are ready to take extreme measures, and at the same time, and ...... The reason why they didn't deal with us and didn't pay attention to us was because they didn't care that we were hiding here...... They have a way to get rid of us at any time! So, we're not safe here right now. ”
Leave?
I frowned: "But, how do you leave?" ”
All the ways out are blocked, even if we want to jump down, I'm afraid we won't be able to break the tempered glass window in the room!
Going out from the roof? Break the ceiling and run to the rooftop to ask for help from the jǐng side?
Impossible, how thick are the ceilings on the top floor of such an edifice? Reinforced concrete, can I penetrate it with my flesh and blood? And all I have is a fire axe. Moreover, on the rooftop, there were three bandits with guns.
So, down the road?
Again, I can't chisel through the floor...... And, even if it's chiseled, don't forget, there's the sixty-first floor below! It's also a layer controlled by bandits!!
Yang Wei shook his head: "I don't know, I can't help it now, but I have to try...... Moreover, I have a hunch that these people probably want to do a big deal! ”
I sat in front of my computer, waited a few minutes, and then turned it back on, and now I only had fifteen minutes of battery left.
In the picture, Louis Jǐng appears, and his face is ugly. Seeing that I had finally contacted him, he seemed to sigh, and then said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid I'm going to inform you that from now on, my command here has been contacted, and someone from the FBI has come, and they will take over the command of everything here." ”
"Louis Jǐng Officer! Tell me, what did they just ask? ”
“…… You guessed it! They are indeed terrorists. ”
The word terrorist, with the sound of the computer, came out and made everyone in the room hear!
Suddenly, the lady exclaimed, and the men also changed a little...... The most obvious were the two male guests. The face immediately collapsed, and there was a tremor in the mouth: "Terrorist...... Terrorist?! ”
Americans have a peculiar fear of terrorists...... 911 really left too painful memories for Americans, so it almost became a nightmare for the United States!
A male guest suddenly rushed to the computer uncontrollably and yelled at the screen:
"Quick! Get me out!! I beg you to get me out at once! Otherwise, I'll get you fired!! You bastard!! Fast!! ”
He screamed hoarsely, and the veins on his forehead burst out.
I grabbed him and pushed him away with all the power I could, punching him in the lower abdomen. The man snorted and bent down. Cover your lower abdomen.
"Be quiet!" I said coldly, and then looked at the screen: "Time is tight, there's no time to talk nonsense!" Say it! ”
"Okay." "They demanded the release of a group of members of an extremist organization in the place where they were detained, and the time limit given was to release them within an hour. At the same time, they demanded that they speak to the media, and that the media publish their statements...... They threatened that they had people out there who were still hiding and would watch on TV, and if the media really released their statements without reservation...... If we dare to lie to them. They would immediately begin to execute the hostages. It is clear that they are indeed terrorists, and their request is to rescue the leaders of several terrorist organizations held in the trial area. He thought for a moment: "The FBI commissioner has arrived, he is coordinating with other departments, they already know your situation, and in a few minutes, the FBI people will be here to connect with you." So, in order to save electricity. That's the end of our conversation. ”
"Wait!!" I yelled in desperation.
Wrong...... Wrong! Definitely not!!
These terrorists take hostages just to rescue their accomplices who are being held in zhèngfǔ?
Wrong!
"It's a smoke bomb that stalls for time!" Yang Wei said slowly: "They are delaying time and not letting the jǐng side know their true purpose, so that they can avoid the jǐng side from a frontal assault." What they are asking for is actually ...... Just make everything here public and that's it. ”
"Louis Jǐng Officer!" I looked at the screen and said viciously, "Hey, listen! I'm sure you're not stupid! You should have more experience than I am!! Do you think this is all normal? These people have spent their strength to infiltrate and arrest more than 200 celebrities who are well-known all over the world! Then all that was demanded was the release of a few prisoners??? Do you believe they are telling the truth? ”
"I ...... Don't believe it. Louis Jǐng's official face was a little hesitant, but he still told the truth: "Honestly. I have a bad feeling! These people must be planning something big! But I can't be sure yet...... It's just that the people at the FBI don't seem to believe me......"
With that, he looked at me. Said coldly: "Actually, if it were me, I would rather order someone to attack!" ”
There was a pause. He seemed to hesitate for a long time, and then looked to the left and right. Looking at me, he lowered his voice and said, "Sir, as a person, I admire you, because you can run out with a dozen people under such circumstances, and bravely fight these people. So, I thought I had to tell you the truth! ”
"What?"
Louis Jǐng took two steps closer and approached the screen, his face enlarged on the screen, and then gritted his teeth and said, "When Lamouche was talking to us just now, he said...... He had some dangerous weapons...... He said he had a TG23 nerve gas weapon! If we attack it, they will detonate these gases...... From a personal standpoint, I need to tell you the truth, otherwise I will not be able to face my conscience! This TG23 nerve xìng poison gas can be transmitted through the air, and the direct stock solution can make one stronger
The strong man dies in three seconds...... And when the diffusion volatilizes into the air, ordinary people mainly inhale a little in their breath, and they will go into shock within five seconds and die within fifteen seconds! Where you are, there's a ventilation duct, right? So, now...... You guys are not safe! If they are ready to perish together...... You're still ...... It's going to die! ”
……
…………
Now the whole room is quiet!!
Even the crying lady stopped crying and looked at the computer screen in shock.
"So. I advise you to find a way to get out of there at once...... Although, I know it's hard. However, it is probably more dangerous to stay there! I've already spoken to that Lamouche, and from what I think, he's a dangerous person...... I even doubt that this could be a suicide attack! ”
……
"Leave? How to leave!! I shouted, and slammed my fist on the table.
"I shouldn't have told you this...... But those FBI guys, they don't dare to take it. They don't believe me, and they plan to continue negotiations with these people to try to resolve the matter peacefully...... But I think these people are stalling for time! Imagine, if they really want to rescue their companions, then even if they are released, it will be difficult for them to leave here! So, whether or not their goal is really to rescue the imprisoned accomplices. But they may all choose to take it in the end...... Extreme measures! ”
I felt my hands tremble...... Not a fear, but an excitement!
I tried to grasp the corner of the table, I squeezed hard, the muscles in my arms were beating, and I stared at the screen: "Louis jǐng officer, you have to help us!" For God's sake! You can't watch a dozen people waiting here to die! ”
“…… All right. He whispered, "It's a pity that I don't have command now." But I made a small discovery, I once drew up a plan, but it was vetoed by those FBI fools. They didn't dare to take risks. They are afraid that if anything goes wrong, they will be held responsible......
Those guys are just a bunch of bureaucrats. Listen, sir, I now have a copy of the architectural drawings of this building! I can't send you the drawings, but I can tell you...... Let me start by saying that this plan is very dangerous, but I personally think that it is better than sitting there and waiting to die. ”
"Say it." I gritted my teeth word by word.
“ok!” Louis Ground sèyīn is uncertain: "I have seen the architectural drawings of the later decoration of the building. After the building was completed, a company bought all of the 62nd floors from the 60th floor of the road, and their original plan at that time was. Between the 60th and 63rd floors, an additional staircase access is set up. There are two lounges on each floor, and each lounge has a passage to the upper or lower floors! It's a pity. Later preparing to buy the three-story company, they unexpectedly went bankrupt, so. Later, he took over the unit here, and put the original two passages on each floor. Resealed. However, after all, the passage was re-sealed after it was opened, and it would not be too difficult to dig it up again. Thankfully, I've confirmed the location of the original passageways on each floor! ”
I'm jīng God shakes up!
"I'm sure that right where you are now, this security lounge, one of the original company's planned lounges, is in the current locker room, if you pry open the tiles on the ground and dig the ground, you will find that there is a passage locked by a steel door on the ground, which leads to the sixty-first floor! I'm not sure if the door was welded shut, but if it was just locked, then I guess it wouldn't be hard to deal with a lock!
As long as you open the steel door on the ground, you can pry open the ceiling of the sixty-first floor, and the ceiling is very fragile, you can chisel it open and reach the sixty-first floor!
Then you can find another passage on the ground in the same place on the 61st floor, and you can reach the 60th floor in the same way as above! And the sixtieth floor is out of the control of the bandits, you can go down to the first floor from there, and then you will be saved!" Am I clear enough?
There are two problems here: first, the sixty-first floor, which is also occupied by bandits! You are now in the security lounge on the 62nd floor, the gate is blocked, you can calmly dig a hole in the ground! However, on the 61st floor, I checked the renovation drawings that had been made, and it was now turned into an office by a new company, and the walls were all simple wooden planks, which a strong man could easily knock through! Even if you get to the lower level, you'll probably not have the time to dig a hole in the ground! And on the sixty-first floor, there are also a large number of armed terrorists! ”
As he spoke, everyone was holding their breath and listening carefully, and when they began to hear that there was a passage, everyone's faces showed joy. But when I heard the back, I was stunned.
Indeed, even when we go down to the sixty-first level...... Surrounded by terrorists, will they allow us to dig holes under our eyelids?
"What I want to mention is ......" Louis Jǐng said slowly, "the bandits have taken control of the camera probes on both floors of your place!" In other words, even if you reach the sixty-first floor, you must be careful with all your actions! I know it's very difficult...... But that's the only hope! ”
I glanced back at Yang Wei, but found that she was closing her eyes, as if thinking about something
