Chapter 5 Change
"What the hell is going on?!" The man who was yelling at his men was the chief of the New York Police Department.
He drove to work this morning as usual, endured traffic jams, terrible air and noise, and finally arrived at the unit. The handcuffed scum gave him the middle finger, and eight out of ten of his officers were more like ruffians than ruffians, and the remaining two were policewomen.
What could be more special about such a bad day that people are accustomed to? The answer, of course, is yes, such as a group of heavily armed and armed members of a criminal organization with high-tech military equipment indiscriminately firing at a crowd in one of New York's most populated areas.
Two seconds after hearing this report, he began to think about whether he would be able to receive his pension alive.
"The NSA guys have taken over the scene, and now it's like World War III is breaking out in Times Square, maybe a terrorist attack, a riot by a religious organization, and even a news that it's an alien invasion." This was the response of the officer who was scolded.
"Where did you hear that?"
"On TV."
"Do you want to change careers tomorrow and work as a security guard at a TV station!!"
"No, sir."
"Get out of my office! Bring me some exact news when you come back that the TV station doesn't know! ”
"Yes, sir!"
"And you!" The director opened the door of his office and shouted outside: "In five minutes, I will speak directly to the field commander there!" Five minutes! So...... You bastards, put down your donuts and coffee for me! Go get it for me right now! Otherwise, I'll pull out your kidneys!" ”
…………
Times Square.
The F.B.I. has completed an initial containment network, with police busy evacuating crowds and medical and fire units on standby on the perimeter.
"I want you to make a few phone calls and get all the media helicopters out of this airspace at once." A middle-aged man in a suit said.
Another agent replied, "But...... According to the First Amendment Act...... "
"Listen, rookie, don't put any laws and regulations in front of me, now this is a level 6 special case, you can tell those damn reporters, I'm rummaging through the weapons car right now, looking for a shoulder-fired bazooka or something, and when I find it, I'll use this baby to shoot down all the flying objects that come my way, even Superman."
"I see, sir, I'll take care of it." The one answered and left.
The man in the suit took out the mobile phone in his pocket, only pressed a speed dial button, and opened his mouth to say, "How long is it before the army comes?" ………… I don't care what the impact will be! What I want is a total lockdown! The explanation after the fact is the work of the politicians! ………… Very well, General, I hope you will complete the order as you say, remember, this is for the sake of national security. ”
With that, he ended the call, and immediately dialed another number, this time not with the speed dial button, but with a very quick press of the full number.
"It's almost done, the media will soon be driven away, the army and all the state forces will be blockading this place with all their might, and in a few minutes, all other means of communication in this area will be cut off except for our midnight communication equipment."
On the other end of the phone, there was a voice from Liyadi: "Very good, I really didn't expect the NSA to send you to take over the scene, in Chinese, God really help me, hahaha......"
…………
Back to that rooftop.
"Tobe, it's almost the limit." Wang Xu suddenly relaxed, and the confrontation ended uneventfully.
Tobe stumbled and staggered, looking unsteady on his feet, and finally barely stood still with the support of his katana: "Ah...... Actually......"
"Actually, you can't stand because you haven't eaten." Wang Xu took his words and said.
"yes...... I haven't eaten since this morning......" Tobe said in a weak but complaining tone, "It's always like this when I act, and I don't eat and sleep regularly, which bothers me a lot." Well...... By the way, how do you know that I don't have the strength to eat without eating? ”
Wang Xu replied: "It's just reading the memory...... Well, there's a restaurant across the street, do you want to go in and get a bite to eat? ”
"Ah...... Appreciate. "The household department just turned around and did not defend itself.
Wang Xu also followed: "It's okay, I'm hungry anyway." ”
When they arrived at the shop, the lobby was already empty, and he walked to the barbecue grill, took a few skewers of grilled sausages and corn from it and put them on a plate, and then he took a wallet out of his clothes, rummaged through it, and said in that weird voice, "Oh no, I only have a hundred yuan bill left." ”
Wang Xu was already sitting on the edge of the bar and eating: "Then don't pay." ”
"That's not okay, stealing is bad behavior." When he said this, Wang Xu felt no pressure.
"Just a few strings of sausages."
"It's not about the value of the item, it's a matter of principle."
"Then you can go to the counter and swipe your card yourself."
"I'm not very good at the mechanical stuff."
Wang Xu was impatient: "Then try to get as much food as possible, and then leave the hundred-yuan bill!" ”
"It's a waste, so is the money, and the food that can't be eaten is ......"
"What's there to worry about, hey!"
Tobe was not discouraged, and he took out a walkie-talkie from his clothes: "Hey, are you there, Boyka, I'm Tobe." ”
Boyka, who was far away in the helicopter, quickly replied: "What are you doing? ”
"Do you have any change?"
"What do you want change for?"
"Pay the bill."
There was silence for three seconds, and then the Russian scolded five or six words loudly in his native dialect, and finally said to Tobe in English: "You go ****, bastard!" ”
Wang Xu had already swept away the contents of his plate at this time, and after stretching his neck to look at the bar, he simply turned over and turned on the stove: "I'll get some bacon and scrambled eggs, do you want it?" ”
Tobe touched his chin in contemplation: "Damn...... It would be very unpleasant to leave a hundred dollars, but I am really hungry, and this looks delicious......"
Wang Xu sighed and ignored him. Grabbing a bottle of olive oil from the stovetop, it's time to heat up the pan. It's like treating someone else's restaurant as your own home.
At this moment, through the seemingly calm appearance, a person's killing intent struck suddenly. Just now, this person followed Wang Xu and Hubu to this restaurant, hibernating and waiting, and when Wang Xu began to knock eggs as if nothing happened, he thought ...... The time has come to make a move.
His skills are very fast, as fast as a star's current, like a sea boiling and a landslide, and he has been killed in a snap of his fingers. But one hand grabbed his wrist in an instant, making the surprise attack come to naught.
Wang Xu hummed a little tune and turned over the bacon in the pot as if nothing had happened behind him.
The sneak attacker looked at Tobe in shock: "What are you doing!" ”
Tobe still had a tangled expression of pain, but his hand did not let go, and he still firmly clamped the man in front of him: "Are you a colleague of the Second Battle Group...... That one...... Do you have change? ”
