Shujie, Dapeng and Ed rushed out of the hall of the stock exchange and went straight to the Hyatt Regency. Along the way, the New York police just watched them run wild through the crowd. No one knew why they ran, and no one wanted to stop the four heroes from China. In less than five minutes, they rushed into the lobby of the hotel.

"Over there! Over there! The Roc slammed open the glass door first. He pointed to the front right, then ran towards the elevator, nearly knocking out a waiter. In the exclamation of the waiter, Dapeng flashed and continued to run without looking back. As soon as he reached the elevator, he immediately pressed the upstairs button.

Shujie and Ed followed. Running all the way down, Shujie was about to lose his breath. Looking at the three closed elevator doors, he was even more anxious.

Syllable! The elevator door on the far right finally opened, and the three of them dodged in. Dapeng immediately pressed the top floor and closed the door button at the same time as fast as possible. Finally, the elevator doors slowly closed and the elevator began to rise. Shujie stared at the floor indicator above the elevator door, and kept praying in his heart: Don't turn it on! Don't light up!

Fortunately, no one pressed this elevator all the way, and the three of them went directly to the top floor.

"Quick!" Roc pointed to a helicopter sign on the wall and ran into a passage as he barked. Shujie stumbled in, too. He looked up: Damn! Also climb stairs. With a fork, a sharp pain came from Shujie's waist. He involuntarily stopped.

"Shujie! Let's go. Roc shouted back.

"I... I'm offended. ”

"It's coming soon." Dapeng ran back to Shujie's side, held him up, and shouted forward, "Ed, you go to the pilot first!" Then, Dapeng grabbed Shujie's arm, and Shujie pressed his ribs with one hand, and climbed up with difficulty.

Step after step, the steps in front of me seemed to have no end. I can't drag my brother down, Shujie thought as he walked. He was about to speak, when the light in the hallway suddenly lit up. Dapeng stretched out his hand and pushed, and an iron door opened, and the clear blue sky immediately appeared in front of the two. Shujie looked up and saw that there were several news unit helicopters hovering over the buildings: Great, Manhattan is not grounded.

"This way! This way! Ed was standing next to a blue-and-white painted helicopter waving to the two of them, the propeller blades above his head slowly spinning. Under Ed's guidance, the two quickly got into the cabin and put on their headphones. The helicopter pilot turned back and handed the ticket back to Ed, then pushed the handle forward and said in the headset, "Ready to take off!" ”

Takeoff? Shujie knew that it would take time for the helicopter to take off, and he could feel the blades spinning faster and faster. But the sound of each spin seemed to torture his patience. The sound of the paddles churning the air became louder and louder, and Shujie's heart became more and more anxious. Finally, the helicopter took off from the rooftop platform and was over the Hudson River in minutes. It whistled past the Statue of Liberty, which was holding a Hua Shengton quote, and flew quickly towards New Jersey.

Shujie sat by the porthole, munching on his nails mechanically, uninterested in the New York landmarks below. On the other side, Ed was constantly looking at his watch.

"How long will it take?" Dapeng's question suddenly came from the earphones, and his tone was irritable.

"It's coming." The pilot replied coldly. He looked intently ahead, unable to comprehend the mania in the hearts of the three of them. Thankfully, Linden Airport was soon in front of them. As Ed requested, the pilot landed directly next to Han Ming's private jet. Looking down from the helicopter, the lines of this Gulfstream aircraft are smooth and powerful. On the silver-white fuselage, a line of English 'Gulf Stream' shines in the sun.

Ed looked at his watch again, and more than twenty minutes had passed. The three of them knew that the nuclear bomb could come at any time, so they immediately boarded the Gulf Stream, not daring to delay for a second.

"Xiao Li, prepare to close the door!" The pilot turned back from the cockpit and shouted, then introduced himself to the three of them amid the roaring of the engine: "Hello, I'm Captain Nie." Xiao Li in the back is the co-pilot. Hey! Why didn't Mr. Han leave? ”

Hearing Lao Nie's question, Shujie realized that Han Ming didn't tell Lao Nie at all that he wouldn't board the plane in person: Thank you, Teacher Han. If this old Nie knew that a nuclear bomb was coming, he would probably have run away a long time ago. But he didn't know what Han Ming had said to Lao Nie, so he had to say nonsense: "Teacher Han has something to do temporarily, so he has to stay for a while." ”

"How long?"

"How do I know? He's the boss, and he'll let you know when he's arranged. Let's take off right away. Hu Shujie buckled himself up and wanted Lao Nie to take everyone out of here quickly.

"The plane is ready and waiting for the tower to take off, please wait." Lao Nie replied.

What to do? Shujie knew that the air traffic control procedures were cumbersome, but now that the situation was urgent, he didn't have time to explain to Lao Nie. Even if he explained, Lao Nie wouldn't understand it nine times out of ten. For a while, Shujie's heart was in turmoil. Next to him, Dapeng was even more messy on himself.

"Take off! Otherwise, Lao Tzu will shoot you! Roc roared suddenly, holding the replica pistol in his hand. He put a gun to the back of Lao Nie's head, and then sat down in the passenger seat. At the back of the cabin, Xiao Li was closing the hatch. As soon as he heard Roc's roar, he immediately jumped out of the hatch.

Shujie and Ed rushed to the hatch and took a look. Xiao Li was running in the direction of the tower, and while running, he was still looking back. Without further ado, the two hurriedly closed the hatch according to the diagram next to the door. At the same time, the Gulfstream began to glide and slowly entered the main runway.

Jungdan！ Suddenly, a Mi language sounded on the radio, and the tone was very urgent.

"The tower asked us to stop taking off immediately and return immediately." Lao Nie relayed, his voice began to tremble: "It is very dangerous to take off without permission. ”

"Leave him alone, speed up and take off!" Shujie shouted from afar, beads of sweat on his forehead. In the cockpit, Dapeng immediately pushed the imitation gun forward. Lao Nie didn't dare to speak anymore, so he had to continue to speed up.

The Gulfstream slips faster and faster. Shujie was just about to catch his breath when a descending plane suddenly appeared in front of him, coming towards him. Fortunately, Lao Nie's eyes were quick, and the Gulf Stream flashed to the right and turned onto another runway. Just as everyone was in shock, Lao Nie opened his mouth and said, "This runway is too short!" We're going to have to make another turn to get off again. ”

"That's a crutch!" Roc shouted. It was too late, it was too fast, and Gulfstream swerved to the left, causing Shujie to almost fall again. Lao Nie pulled the control stick to the right again, and the plane was inserted diagonally back into the main runway. Shujie grabbed the back of his chair and looked out the window, and several police cars with flashing lights had already appeared on the runway.

Lao Nie was extremely frightened, and as soon as he let go of his hand, Gulfstream immediately slowed down. In the passenger seat, Dapeng was so anxious that his face was flushed. He pretended to chamber the pistol once, and roared hoarsely: "Speed up! Hasten! ”

Under the obscene power of the muzzle, Lao Nie's lips turned white, and beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead. He gritted his teeth and aligned the plane with the main runway, further increasing his speed. "Ready to take off!" His voice was hoarse. At the same time, Shujie and Ed also returned to the front of the cabin and sat down behind the cockpit.

"Seat belts!" Ed was in a hurry as he loudly reminded Shujie and Roc.

"him safe—" Before Dapeng could finish speaking, Shujie's body leaned back suddenly, unable to move. In the roar of the maximum decibel of the engine, the scene outside the window flashed like lightning, faster and faster, and more and more blurred. Suddenly, the rumbling of tires died down, and the 25-ton Iron Bird took off into the air, then slanted to the left and quickly flew northwest.

Shujie breathed a long sigh of relief. He looked at his watch, and thirty-two minutes had passed. "Didn't you say that the nuclear bomb would arrive in half an hour?" Shujie asked with a frown.

"That's right, didn't Bush Jr. complete the launch order at all?" Ed was also surprised.

In front of the two, Lao Nie was dumbfounded when he heard it, but he didn't dare to ask more.

Shujie got up and pressed his head against the window and looked east. The sky is still clear above New York, and the land is peaceful.

"Maybe. But we're miserable," Shujie sighed: "I worked so hard to take the G exam and study abroad, but I didn't expect to end up as a criminal who hijacked the plane!" ”

"Yes! Who would have thought that? Ed shook his head in agreement.

"If we could do it again, would we still go abroad?" Dapeng asked back.

"If I do it again—" Shujie smiled bitterly. Before he could finish speaking, the sky in front of him suddenly lit up. The three of them looked back. Behind the wing, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and turned into a huge fireball over Manhattan. The fireball swelled rapidly and began to engulf everything on the ground.

Shujie knew that something was wrong, but he didn't know what to do or what would happen, so he could only watch all this in a daze. The Gulf Stream, which escaped with all its might, seemed so small and ridiculous in the vast sky. After a few seconds, a huge shockwave caught up with the Gulf Stream in mid-air, smashing it from back to front. In this moment, three youthful faces are frozen into eternity in an impossibly bright light.
