/ The two looked around suspiciously, and what was even more strange was that not only the waiter was gone, but just now I saw some customers buying things around, but now there is no one, because the clothes are more expensive in this neighborhood, so there are fewer people who come here, but there is not one!

Jiang Ming took Xiaoqin's hand and said, "Let's go over there and have a look!" As he spoke, he took a few steps forward, and suddenly from behind a pillar suddenly stretched out a muzzle with a silencer, and slammed it against Jiang Ming's temple, and at the same time, several more of the same submachine gun were pressed against Xiaoqin's side and behind the two of them......

Jiang Ming quickly understood why there was no one on this floor, he and Xiaoqin were pushed and shoved by several masked bandits to the upper floor, that is, the sixth floor of the shopping mall, and when they arrived Jiang Ming and Xiaoqin realized that the customers and employees of this shopping mall were all driven here, and they were all squatting on the ground, holding their heads in their hands, and many masked bandits pointed at them with submachine guns, and kept shouting: "Don't talk, don't look up, or I'll kill you!" ”

But there were still all kinds of buzzing noises in the crowd, almost everyone was trembling with fright, the women were almost crying, but they didn't dare to cry out loud, yes, who would have thought that they would be so unlucky, go to the mall and actually encounter robbers, and they are not ordinary robbers at all, it looks like high-level robbers! Because they're all with guns!

There were also people who were constantly driven here from other floors by bandits, and some people who thought they were good at resisting just wanted to resist, but they were immediately killed by the bandits, and several corpses lay in a corner, so soon no one dared to resist anymore, and people's trembling and crying were even worse.

Jiang Ming didn't resist, he didn't bother to do ineffective resistance, in fact, if he wanted to kill these robbers now, it would not be very difficult, but he wanted to wait, look at the surrounding situation, and see what these bastards wanted to do? He felt as if it wasn't just any bandits, but a bunch of terrorists, or ...... Professional killer!

Zhongxing shopping mall is not too high, only seven floors, soon, all the people in the mall were driven to the sixth floor, people crowded and squatted on the ground, fear, anger, sorrow, helplessness, complaints, despair and other emotions enveloped everyone here, except Jiang Ming.

He quietly looked at the situation in front of him and left and right, thinking about how to deal with this unexpected thing that suddenly happened in front of him, Xiaoqin snuggled up to him, and was also a little scared, after all, whoever suddenly faced so many guns and dead people would be afraid.

She asked Jiang Ming in a trembling voice in a whisper: "Jiang Ming, I'm ...... What are we going to do?! ”

Jiang Ming patted her lightly and comforted: "It's okay, don't be afraid, there is me!" At this moment, all the customers and staff in the building have been gathered here, and then some of the bandits began to rob the money in the building, and the other part of the gangsters pointed guns at these hostages, demanding that they hand over all the money and jewelry, and those with bank cards transferred all the money in it to several cards designated by telephone, computer or other means.

The hostages basically did not resist, and they all cooperated to throw the money and jewelry, whether real or fake, into the big pockets held by the gangsters. After all, money is something outside the body, and it is important to save your life.

For this, the hostages are not very surprised, it is not strange that the gangsters rob money, but it is strange if they do not rob money! What they are more worried about is whether they will rob the property after they rob it, or even kill people or something......

There are also troublemakers, such as Jiang Ming, he didn't bring money, but under the persecution of the gangsters, he was helpless and had no choice, so he had to borrow ten yuan from Xiaoqin and throw it in his pocket, in exchange for the unanimous contempt of the gangsters!

At this moment, Jiang Ming had quietly released ten clones, all of them invisible, and rushed to each floor to find out the situation, he had to understand the current situation first, and then make the next step. At this time, the siren of "Woo Woo Wow" was already heard outside the building, and a large number of police had arrived, and quickly surrounded the mall, and martial law was also placed around, and the cordon was drawn.

The bandits did not have the slightest sense of fear, and "suddenly" hit the policemen below, and the policemen immediately scattered to hide, some policemen and a few onlookers were killed and wounded, and the policemen were hidden, and on the other hand, they used their weapons - a few police pistols to shoot back, and used telephones and walkie-talkies or something, calling special police, riot squads, armed police, fire brigades, ambulances and the army and so on immediately rushed to support, obviously, they were not facing ordinary robbers, but terrorists!

Zhao Kangmin, the captain of the criminal police team, shot nervously at the upstairs window while shooting covertly, and shouted with his mobile phone: "Notify the anti-terrorism brigade and immediately activate the emergency plan, yes, it's Zhongxing shopping mall, this is not a robber, it's a gang of terrorists!" …… Fuck you, it's not a drill! - "In anger, he shouted hoarsely!

Jiang Ming's several branches have investigated up and down, and have basically figured out the situation of this gang of bandits, there are about fifty of these gangsters, all of them are masked, only their eyes and mouths are exposed, typical terrorists, (are terrorists dressed like this?) They all seem to be athletic, and they all seem to be from military backgrounds.

Jiang Ming received the message from the clones, and couldn't help frowning, it seemed that these guys were not easy to deal with, suddenly, he became nervous, only to see a few bandits take out some things from their bags and start to install them around the crowd, take a closer look, it is a bomb, and it looks like a C4 bomb!! Damn it! These bastards!!

The squatting people were even more frightened when they saw this scene, and many of them couldn't help crying, this is over, the bomb is planted, can this still live? Even if the police came to the rescue, the bomb exploded before the police arrived......

Jiang Ming gritted his teeth secretly, "Damn! What should I do? He was thinking hard about it, and suddenly felt someone behind him tugging at his clothes, "Who?" Thinking so, he looked back and couldn't help but be surprised.

It turned out to be Xiao Zhi who dragged his clothes, and he was not surprised to see Xiao Zhi here, but the strange thing was that there were a few people behind Xiao Zhi that he knew very well! Who's there? Behind Xiaozhi is actually Liu Meimei, and she also came to this mall today!

Not only her, but also Zhao Xinrui, Qian Xiaoya, Xiao Gonghua, Zhao Mengya, Zhou Na, Wang Xin, Lin Xiaowei, etc., there are actually many acquaintances!

"Oh! Mygod？ What are you doing here? Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

His question was exchanged for a few big rolls of the eyes! Who knew that something like this would happen here today? If I knew this, I wouldn't have come here today to kill them!!

Before a few people could say a few words, they heard a loud shout: "Don't speak!" Then a big foot kicked Jiang Ming's back, Jiang Ming's obedient "dog eating" lay on the ground, and then the big foot stepped on Jiang Ming's back, a rough big man stepped on Jiang Ming, pointed a gun at everyone, and said viciously: "Whoever speaks again, will kill whom?" ”

He saw that Meimei and her girls were all embroidered in the closed moon, sinking fish and birds, very tempting, he just wanted to intimidate a few more words, and then move his hands and feet, suddenly heard his accomplice shout: "Fourth, come here, what nonsense with them, will they not end up in a while!" ”

The person known as the fourth didn't want to go over, but he had to obey that person, who was a team leader, in charge of a few of them, so he reluctantly lifted the big foot on Jiang Ming's body, turned around to leave, Jiang Ming sat up from the ground, pointed at him and said angrily: "Hey! Brat! You dare to kick me, and you dare to step on me! I ......"

Suddenly, the fourth child turned around, and extremely quickly put the muzzle of the submachine gun on Jiang Ming's forehead, and said coldly: "Do you have any opinions?" ”

Jiang Ming immediately raised his hands and smiled: "No, I just want to ask you to be lighter next time......

Before he finished speaking, a heavy slap hit him on the head: "Hold your head with both hands, don't speak!" ”

Seeing Jiang Ming honestly holding his head and squatting down, the fourth child "snorted" from his nose and said, "Waste." Then he turned and left. Jiang Ming was left facing the complicated eyes and expressions of a bunch of beauties......

Of course, Jiang Ming can't do it now, he can't do it if he is not sure enough, once it affects his wife and a bunch of female friends, it will be troublesome, after all, bullets don't have eyes, and they won't stop hitting them just because they are beautiful women.

But Jiang Ming's performance disappointed the beauties, they looked at his nested appearance, and they were angry and wanted to laugh one by one.

At this time, the gunfight between the bandits and the police had stopped, but this was not a good thing for them, because they saw through the binoculars that there were many snipers who had gone up to the roofs of the opposite buildings, and there were also figures on the roofs of the buildings on both sides.

There were a few windows that they did not cover, but took some hostages and made them stand in front of the windows, and these shivering, pants-wetting people stood in front of the windows almost unstoppable, and tears flowed down their noses. But the bandits don't care if they can stand or not, as long as they can block the police's view.

was in a hurry, and the shouts of the police came from below: "Listen to the militants in the building, I am Xiao Guoqiang, the director of the public security bureau, I don't care who you are, put down your weapons and come out immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" ”

The one who answered this shout was a shuttle bullet, and the captain of the criminal police, Zhao Kangmin, was almost mad: "Damn, the criminal police team, follow me and rush in, his grandmother's!" ”

Zhao Kangmin turned out to be an excellent special forces soldier in the army, who participated in military operations such as peacekeeping forces and escort ships in the Gulf of Aden, and was a veteran with actual combat experience, but his subordinates may not be able to do it.

Director Xiao Guoqiang grabbed him: "Xiao Zhao, calm down, impulsiveness can't solve the problem, there are a lot of hostages in it, did you rush in to save it?" ”

At this time, a police officer in charge of liaison shouted: "Director, the call has been connected!" "This is the phone number from the office of the manager of the ZTE mall, and the kidnappers answered the phone, proving that there is still a possibility of negotiation.

After confirming that the leader of the kidnappers was contacted, the policeman handed over the phone to the director, and Director Xiao Guoqiang picked up the phone and said, "Say it! What conditions do you have, and what do you want to do? ”

A dark voice came from the microphone: "Director Xiao, you are a smart person, then let's open the window and say something." To tell you the truth, our buddies didn't plan to come back alive when we came this time! As long as you agree to our terms, we may be able to release the hostages, otherwise...... Let's all die together! ”

Xiao Guoqiang tightened his eyebrows, knowing that the conditions of the gangsters must be extremely difficult to complete, at this time, I saw that the deputy mayor of Tan Wu, who was in charge of politics and law in the city, also arrived, and Mayor Liu was on a business trip, so now the one who can make the decision in the city belongs to him, Xiao Guoqiang nodded to him, as a greeting, and continued to listen to the kidnapper's request.

I only heard the voice of the shadow continue: "Our request is simple, that is, please release one of the people in the prison in the western suburbs of X City, Mr. Ben Guanden!" ”

Director Xiao gasped, looking at his surroundings with a sense of spinning, he said a few words to Vice Mayor Tan, and then immediately replied: "Can't do it!" ”

This person named Ben Guan Deng is an extremely important and special criminal, he is a person of an ethnic minority, an out-and-out terrorist, and an important senior leader in a terrorist organization, he has done many cases in various parts of the world, killed countless people, committed many crimes, and is wanted by many countries. And had to withdraw from several subordinate organizations that had been quite rampant in China.

Such criminals, not to mention that they are unwilling to let go, even if they are willing to let go, they have no power. The case is under the direct responsibility of the National Security Service, which is currently being held in City X and will soon be transferred to another secret prison.

Xiao Guoqiang is puzzled, this person has not been secretly transferred to X City for a long time, and it is absolutely confidential, and there are only a few people who know about this matter, who leaked the news? Whoever it is, it's a huge scourge anyway!! That's for sure.

Director Xiao and Vice Mayor Tan quickly discussed and immediately decided to contact the staff of the National Security Bureau stationed in City X and ask them to rush to the scene immediately. While they waited here, they continued to study how to rescue the hostages and eliminate the kidnappers.

The situation is undoubtedly complex and critical, according to reliable sources, there are more than 1,000 hostages inside, and the sniper team reports that the bandits have installed some suspected bomb objects around the hostages and on other floors, which undoubtedly greatly increases the difficulty of rescuing the hostages and the seriousness of the incident.

There is no doubt that this is a group of extremely vicious and frenzied terrorists, and without paying a heavy price and sacrifice, I am afraid that this case will be very difficult to solve, and the social impact aside, the disposal of more than 1,000 hostages alone is an extremely difficult and troublesome matter.

The leaders of the various departments present hid behind the bunker and studied, one by one worried, helpless, Captain Zhao Kangmin kept scolding, scolding these damn bastards, at this time, a small policeman came to report, saying that the city TV station sent a few reporters to interview, Zhao Kangmin's fire hit the door of the head at once, and roared loudly: "Fuck, what to take, let them go!" ——”

At this moment, in the office of the director of the office building of the TV station in X city, Director Wang Ergai was angrily slamming a stack of documents in his hand on the table, and the loud sound of "Peng" almost frightened everyone in the room!

"His grandmother's! How so? ......" Director Wang turned around angrily in the office, their performance has become worse and worse, and the superior leaders have scolded him many times, saying that the performance will not go up in the short term, and he, Wang Ergai, will not need to "cover" here in the future!

Just when he was annoyed and helpless, such a big case suddenly happened, Wang Ergai's joy was really like a wave of water, endless, this time there was big news, but the pus-filled reporters he sent out couldn't cover anything, and those "unreasonable" policemen didn't even let them get close, didn't this kill him? Wang Ergai's anxiety and irritability at the moment are almost the same as the mood of those hostages in the building.

Suddenly, his mobile phone rang "wah-wow-wow", he picked up the phone irritably and connected it, and said loudly in a rough voice: "Hey! Who is it? ”

A very low woman's voice came from the microphone: "Director, I'm Qian Xiaoya!" I'm ...... now."

"Qian Xiaoya, what are you calling now? Didn't I tell you? You don't have to go to work anymore, reflect on your problems! Director Wang said impatiently.

"No! Director, listen to me, I'm ...... in Zhongxing Shopping Mall now," Qian Xiaoya continued to explain in a low voice.

And Wang Ergai's tone was not low at all: "Zhongxing shopping mall? What do you have to do with me in ZTE Mall?! As he spoke, he hung up the phone angrily and put it in his trouser pocket. Alas! This woman, really, what kind of mess? Also Zhongxing shopping mall? Middle......???

He was stunned, his eyes were round and round, and then he hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and almost didn't throw it out in a panic......

"Hey, Xiaoya, you, where are you now? You say, you are in the middle ...... Zhongxing shopping mall? Wang Ergai was so excited that he couldn't speak! No, I can't say anything!

"yes!" Xiaoya's voice was still low, lest she be discovered by the bandits. "I'm in Zhongxing Mall right now, and I've met robbers here......"

"Yes! That's great! Wang Ergai's excited shouts startled Xiaoya!

"What? What's so awesome? I'm asking you to call the police to save us? Uncle Cousin? Xiao Ya said in surprise.

But Wang Ergai was still inexplicably excited, and said happily: "Don't care about those broken police, Xiaoya, listen, you have now caught up with a golden opportunity, you immediately send a report by phone, and our side will edit and broadcast it immediately, Xiaoya, my dear Xiaoya, the time has come for you to make meritorious contributions!" ”

"Yes...... But! Xiaoya felt her tears flow out, "It's dangerous here, what if I die?!" ”

"Oops! Xiao Ya," Chief Wang's voice suddenly became kind and gentle, "Don't you just think about your own personal interests! Think about those war correspondents, think about those war photos that shocked the world, which one was not taken at gunpoint? ”

After a pause, he continued to persuade Xiaoya, just like those traitors in the old society: "As an excellent journalist, the value of important news is higher than all the selfish interests of reporters, and some key and important information is even higher than the lives of reporters!" Therefore, we must learn from those great journalists and dare to give everything for the great journalistic work! ”

Xiaoya's tears were bursting: "But I'm really scared!" You don't know how to meet ...... now."

Wang Ergai tried his best to comfort her: "Don't worry, Xiaoya! We will definitely find a way to save you and will definitely do our best to help you!! ”

Hearing the promises of the station's cousin, Qian Xiaoya was a little relieved, but she would never have thought that Director Wang's so-called help was only in news broadcasting, and as for how to rescue them, he had no way at all!!
