Chapter 1826 War correspondent Dong Huilan
Lokan Airport, just over twenty minutes away from Baguio. And there is only a 3,200-meter-long run here, which is also due to strategic needs, and it has just been built for less than a year, and now it has been controlled by the rebels.
Baguio is a tourist city, and the airport still has a lot of passenger traffic every year. But now in the small airport, in addition to the heavily armed soldiers, there are only two or three kittens walking in a hurry. And now those who have the courage to go to Baguio are almost all journalists from various countries.
A small propeller passenger plane taking off from Zamboanga International Airport in Mindanao was flying in the air, and a young Chinese man in his twenties, looking very handsome and sunny, pushed the woman next to him who was resting on a chair.
"Sister Dong, Baguio is almost here!"
This woman is Dong Huilan, Yang Luo was injured a year ago, and went to Japan to take care of Yang Luo. Later, Yang Luo's plan in Japan was launched, and he was afraid that something would happen to her, so he forcibly ordered her to leave with Jobs. And for more than a year, she had tried to contact Yang Luo, but the phone number she had before had become empty. She also took advantage of the holiday to return to China to find it, but with her little understanding of Yang Luo, how could she find it, and in the end she could only return to the United States gloomily.
This time, the Philippines was attacked by a terrorist attack, and then the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, and more than a dozen countries suddenly announced their intervention to further escalate the situation, so she took the initiative to invite Ying to the Philippines for an interview. Because she also saw the video of the negotiation between the terrorist and the President of the United States and the Japanese minister, she had a feeling, and this feeling was very strong, that is, the arrogant and a little neurotic terrorist 1 terrorist was probably Yang Luo.
Dong Huilan opened her eyes and looked at the entire cabin, which was empty, except for her two assistants, there were also two Britons, who were also her peers. Although there were only five of them on the plane except for the flight attendants, the two sides did not communicate, so the whole journey was quiet, and even quiet and a little depressing
Dong Huilan stretched and rubbed her tired face again. After changing planes three times and sitting for more than 20 hours, it was too tiring.
"What time is it?" Dong Huilan asked in a hoarse voice.
Another chubby, glasses-wearing, short-cut girl looked at her watch: "It's half past eleven at night." ”
Dong Huilan nodded and looked out the window. The night sky outside was starry, the ground was flashing with neon, his eyes became a little illusory, and he muttered, "I don't know if I can see him again here." ”
"Sister Dong, what did you say?" The fat girl didn't hear clearly.
Dong Huilan came back to her senses and smiled: "Nothing! ”
The plane was still flying, and it hadn't landed for more than 20 minutes, Dong Huilan said suspiciously: "Why hasn't it landed yet, is there something wrong with the plane?" ”
Her words made the two assistants nervous, and even the two Englishmen looked nervous.
The young man hurriedly called the flight attendant, and then learned that there were two military planes to land at Lokan Airport, and the planes they were on had to get out of the way and wait for the two military planes to land before they were allowed to land.
I don't know how long it was, but the radio on the plane went off, reminding passengers to fasten their seatbelts and that the plane was about to land.
Dong Huilan fastened her seat belt, and then whispered to the young man: "Get the miniature camera ready, there may be unexpected surprises when you get off the plane, but don't turn on the flash." ”
The young man glanced out the window: "If you don't turn on the flash, the effect will be poor." ”
Dong Huilan said: "The effect almost doesn't matter, if we turn on the flash, we will be in big trouble." ”
The young man was unimpressed, but said nothing more. After all, Dong Huilan is his immediate boss, and a Chinese can gain a firm foothold in the United States, or in a very influential newspaper like the Wall Street Journal, which has nothing to do with Dong Huilan's care.
More than ten minutes later, the plane landed smoothly, Dong Huilan gave the two assistants a look, then put the big backpack behind her, and dragged the suitcase to the cabin door. As soon as you get out of the hatch, you feel like you are in an island country, and you can see the runway built along the seaside from the gangway, and there are some small straw huts for resting on the side, which is a tropical style.
She stood at the doorway and took a deep breath of salty air, then looked at the two large planes parked not far away. She was not a professional war correspondent, so she didn't know what the two planes were, but she did know the pattern on the planes, which was the flag of the Soviet Union. And under the two large planes, there were nearly 100 heavily armed soldiers standing neatly, and even if they were dozens of meters apart, they could feel the aura of strong oppression.
The eyes of the young man and the fat girl lit up, and some of them excitedly held the miniature camera and shot wildly. At this moment, white light flashed behind them, especially in the night, which was very dazzling.
Dong Huilan's face changed, and she scolded with some annoyance: "What an idiot! After speaking, he whispered to the young man, "Don't shoot, hurry up and hide the camera!" ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, and then he saw an off-road vehicle rushing in the distance, and then the screeching brakes sounded, and four soldiers with submachine guns got out of the off-road vehicle.
The young man's face changed, one side of his body was hidden behind Dong Huilan, and he hurriedly took out the memory card in the camera and put it in his mouth.
As they descended the spiral staircase, two servicemen raised their guns at the same time, and the two servicemen shouted, "Open all suitcases and backpacks and get checked." ”
The fat girl and the young man were very nervous, they had never seen such a scene when they were so big, especially when they were pointed at gunpoint, it was not pleasant.
Dong Huilan smiled slightly and patted the shoulders of the two people to show comfort. Then he obediently opened his backpack and suitcase, took down the camera around his neck and handed it to a soldier.
Dong Huilan knew the current affairs so well, which made the soldier very satisfied. I carefully checked the suitcase and backpack, especially the photos in the camera, looked through them one by one, and saw that they were just some landscape photos, so I returned them to Dong Huilan. And another soldier was checking the young man and the fat girl, of course, the most important thing was the miniature camera found on the young man's body, there was no memory card in it, and then he searched the young man very carefully for a while, even the shoes and socks were taken off, and still no forbidden things were found, so he was unwilling to let Dong Huilan and the three of them leave.
Because the airport is not big, it looks very small, and the so-called terminal building is a small row of bungalows. At the entrance to the airport, heavily armed soldiers and military vehicles stood guard. Of course, it is impossible for such a miniature airport to have an airport bus, so the three of them can only walk on two legs to the airport exit.
They had not gone far when they heard a quarrel behind them. The three of them looked back and saw the two Englishmen angrily cursing loudly, escorted into the car by four soldiers, and then speeding past them.
The fat girl looked at the speeding off-road vehicle, patted her chest as if it was stuffed with two basketballs, and had a scared expression: "I'm scared to death!" Then he looked at Dong Huilan and said adoringly, "Sister Dong, you still have the foresight, otherwise we will have to be unlucky with those two fools." ”
The young man sighed and said, "This is the experience!" ”
The fat girl smiled and said: "You are still too tender, learn a little more from the leader, there is a lot of knowledge here, especially war correspondents like us, not only must have courage but also brains." ”
Dong Huilan glanced back at the two large planes in the distance and the soldiers standing neatly below, and quickened her pace and said, "Hurry up, it's safe to get out of the airport." ”
When the three of them came to the immigration department, they were in a small bungalow next to the exit of the airport, and the inspection was not strict, especially since the three people were all American nationals and were also reporters for the Wall Street Journal, and they were quickly released.
There are no buses in Baguio, so you can only take a taxi or take a jeepney when you go out. Similar to a bus, but private. This kind of car has no doors, no window glass, except for the roof is open, the door is open at the back, there are two rows of benches in the car, from the back door to sit face to face, someone beckons to stop, you can also get off at any time.
Dong Huilan and the three of them walked out of the airport, except for jeepneys and taxis, the most were the kind of tricycles. Seeing that Dong Huilan and the three foreigners all surrounded him, even the taxi driver, who usually disdains to solicit passengers, grabbed business with jeepneys and tricycles because of the war and dismal business.
Dong Huilan was a little troubled by the noise, and when she was about to find a car to leave, she heard a familiar and somewhat unfamiliar local voice.
"Three, you are Chinese?"
Dong Huilan pushed away a guy who was in front of her and saw a van parked on the side of the road, with a middle-aged couple standing next to the car. The man couldn't tell which country it was, as if he was of mixed race. And the woman can see at a glance that it is Chinese, and it is this woman who spoke just now, she is not beautiful, but her eyes looking at Dong Huilan are very sincere.
Dong Huilan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, we are all Chinese." ”
The woman was very happy to hear Dong Huilan's words, and said enthusiastically: "Where are you going?" I'll send you. ”
Dong Huilan did not refuse, and beckoned the two assistants to get into the van. This displeased the taxi and tricycle and jeepney drivers, but when they looked at the soldiers patrolling in the distance, none of them dared to go over and ask for trouble.
In the van, the woman stretched out her hand and shook Dong Huilan: "Hello, my name is Dida, and my ancestral home is Shishi City, Fujian. Then he introduced the middle-aged man who was driving, "This is my husband, his name is Linnell, and he is a quarter of Chinese ancestry." ”
Dong Huilan said: "Hello, my name is Dong Huilan, I am from Guangdong, I immigrated to New York when I was eleven years old, and I am now a reporter for the Wall Street Journal. Then he introduced the young man and the fat girl, "His name is Yan Penghui, her name is Liu Zhuzhu, yes the assistant, and also my Guangdong countryman." ”
Dida said suddenly: "No wonder you came to Baguio at this time, it turned out to be a reporter." ”
Dida is a very talkative woman, saying that now Baguio is occupied by rebels, the whole city is very chaotic, and when she saw Dong Huilan and three Chinese at the exit of the airport, she was afraid of danger, so she asked three people to get on the bus.
At this time, Yan Penghui had already taken out the memory card in his mouth, wiped it on his body, and then took Dong Huilan's camera, replaced the memory card, and checked the effect of the photo shooting.
"Sister Dong, look at it, the effect is not bad."
Dong Huilan tilted her head and glanced at it, then grabbed the camera, enlarged the photo, and looked at a silhouette on the photo, with a smile on her face. Although it was not clear, and it was still a silhouette, she could still be sure that this silhouette was the guy who had been lingering in her mind.
