Chapter 030: Saving 20 People or 200,000 People

Save 20 or 200,000?

Is this a multiple-choice question? Perhaps... Maybe it's a multiple-choice question.

"How long did they give?" Dean Harris asked.

"An hour!"

Mayor Elman was also in a heavy mood, if the other party had arrested twenty soldiers or policemen, he might not be so entangled.

He believed that the soldiers and police of the Star Luo Empire had the consciousness to sacrifice themselves, and would not let them do multiple-choice questions.

But the other side seized women and children, and fiercely grasped the weakness of the official.

······

A stronghold somewhere in the city.

Major Carter glanced at the 20 hostages held and asked with some suspicion, "Are you sure that the official will send back the virus that can kill 200,000 people for these people?" ”

"Yes."

"Why?"

Dr. Maika was full of confidence, and the corners of his eyes were full of disdain, and he mocked, "Because they are self-proclaimed civilized and righteous governments." ”

Major Carter doesn't understand?

Dr. Maika explained with a smile, "If Mr. Carter is a regular follower of the news, you should have heard about an event. ”

"Many years ago, a civilian in the Xingluo Empire was kidnapped abroad, and Xingluo sent an elite special forces of 30 people and logistics of hundreds of people, mobilized nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers and more than a dozen military satellites, coordinated four countries to carry out cross-border rescues, and finally sacrificed five special forces to save the civilian."

"Is it worth it?"

Major Carter gave a disdainful sneer.

"Hehe... It's not a matter of a life, it's the face of a big country, and it's of great political significance, and if the mission fails or the rescue is not done, then anyone can threaten and challenge the country······"

"That's why nations never compromise on threats to your organization!"

Major Carter's eyes lit up, and he sneered, "According to what you said, they shouldn't compromise, let alone exchange the virus for hostages!" ”

Dr. Maika was stunned, he didn't expect this guy to think like this.

What an idiot!

It is no wonder that the Holy Al Qaeda organization is now half-dead, and such a person can become the leader of the major of the organization, and there is no reason not to decline.

"Swapping hostages with viruses is not a compromise, but a show that the state and government will not give up protecting any of its citizens."

"Don't worry! They will hand over the virus, but it is estimated that they will think of a way to try to rescue or persuade them to surrender by force... Mr. Carter should check again to see if there are any defensive loopholes that can be raided by the other side! ”

······

"Is it possible to swap the hostages out of the first place with a fake virus?"

Lin family, when Dean Harris briefly talked about the call with the mayor, Lynn took the lead in putting forward his own ideas.

"No way, that researcher is the creator of this virus, he must know whether he has done anything or not..." Link shook his head.

"There should be a P3 lab in Holy Moon City, right?" Senior sister Xu Zijin suddenly asked inexplicably.

"There is one."

Dean Harris replied, looking at Link's senior sister with some confusion.

"Then it's easier to solve."

Xu Zijin showed a smile on his face, and clapped his hands and said: "Dean Harris, you ask the police to stabilize the terrorists first, and then ask the military to contact the P3 laboratory, send the information of this virus over, develop an antidote in the shortest possible time, and then let the pharmaceutical company mass produce and arm the military's anti-chemical warfare troops..."

"Once the matter reaches the point of no return, if the other party releases poison in the city, spray the antidote as soon as possible."

Harris's eyes lit up, it was a perfect solution, and he became worried again.

"Is there time to come?"

"Hehe... This depends on the work efficiency of the military and political forces of Xingluo! Xu Zijin joked.

"I'll get in touch."

Harris pulled out his phone and quickly got in touch.

The dean of the Holy Moon Academy has a very big name and a very high status, and he holds most of the extraordinary power of the Holy Moon City, and all forces are very face-saving.

After a few phone calls, the military quickly dispatched a transport plane to pick up the boxes.

In order to prevent accidents, Harris also personally escorted over.

Link also wanted to join in the fun, but was resolutely refused and stopped by Harris.

This kid is too fat, and he may be able to make some kind of trouble for him that makes his blood pressure soar.

"Stay at home, it's not your junior's turn to take care of these things."

Watching the transport plane leave, Link was quite regretful.

It's not that you have to take the initiative to take it, but this kind of thing to save all the people from fire and water, the merit must be high!

"There's no fun to watch tonight, let's wash and sleep!"

Link yawned and picked up the little fox who was also yawning and went back to the room.

Some people have a quiet time, and some people are moving forward with a load.

In the emergency command center of the city hall, the lights are bright, and the personnel of all relevant departments are sticking to their posts.

Through various technical means, the police finally found the hiding place of the group of fish that slipped through the net.

The top floor of a thirty-story building in the DC district of Holy Moon City.

The police immediately cordoned off the scene and quickly evacuated unrelated personnel throughout the building.

Major Carter and others did not stop these actions by the police.

They now have limited manpower and firepower to kidnap the entire building as hostages, and forcibly stopping it will only expose a hole in the defenses and give the police a chance to take advantage of it.

It was better to hold the 20 talismans in his hand tightly, and all the members of the building cowered on the roof.

A tense confrontation began!

On the other side, Harris escorted the box into the P3 lab, which had been taken over by the military, and the researchers in the lab had been waiting for a long time.

When I got the data, I quickly fell into a heated discussion.

In view of the detailed information in the copy, almost the whole process and data of the virus manufacturing experiment are recorded in it.

Laboratory experts quickly deciphered the virology of the virus and began to decipher the virus······

In order to make the antidote in the most efficient way, the military even contacted the superiors directly, and asked the superiors to coordinate the remote guidance of many top virus experts in China to form an advisory group.

The efficiency is fast, because virus samples and various data are available, and targeted detoxification is not difficult for these top virus experts.

After some brainstorming, the initial detoxification plan was taken out.

However, from the detoxification program to the trial production and testing of the antidote, and mass production to equip the troops, it takes three hours at the earliest······

And the robbers only give an hour, and the hour is almost up.

How to gain another two hours has become the most critical link in resolving this crisis.

After many communications, it was Mayor Elman who finally stepped forward.

It was decided to personally go and negotiate with the other party with the poison.

"I'm going to get you two hours, I hope you don't let me down."

Mayor Ellman took the suitcase and got into the car, with Dean Harris following him.

"Mayor, how are you going to stall?" Harris asked.

"Let's do it when the opportunity comes!"

Mayor Ellman rubbed his temples, feeling a little exhausted and overwhelmed.

"If it is really impossible to do it, we can only sacrifice those twenty people." Harris muttered under his breath.

Mayor Ellman was silent.

The population of Shengyue Island is nearly one million, and the main island where Shengyue City is located also has a population of nearly 800,000, and at least 200 people die of natural causes every day, plus various accidents including being hunted by wild beasts outside the city or infiltrating the city, 6 or 700 people lose their lives at most every day.

Even if all 20 people died, it would not have much impact on the mortality rate of the entire city.

However, this is kidnapped by terrorists, and the nature is different!

If they were all brutally murdered, the image of their government would have been damaged like never before.

All residents will lose trust in the government······

"20 people... 200,000 ······"

Mayor Ellman muttered, smiled bitterly, and said, "Mr. Harris, do you think I'm a little indecisive, or rather... Our Lady, such a simple multiple-choice question, I have to embarrass myself······"

"Who knows!"

Harris also sighed and said, "I can only do my best to obey the destiny of heaven, and leave the rest to future generations to comment." ”

"In any case, during my tenure as mayor, these extremists will not be allowed to do anything wrong."

Mayor Ehrman's expression turned cold, and his eyes gradually became firm.

······

The next day, Link's family of three plus senior sister Xu Zijin watched the morning news in Holy Moon City while eating breakfast.

"According to the latest report obtained by this station from the Propaganda Department of the City Hall, the hijacking incident has been dealt with, and through the full cooperation of all departments of the City Hall, all the robbers were killed on the spot, and all the hostages were rescued······"

"At the same time, the police announced that the previous five fires were solved, all of which were committed by extremist organizations, all personnel were brought to justice, and the base of the terrorist organization in the city of the Holy Moon was also destroyed, and a number of explosives and firearms were seized······

"City Hall has announced the end of a week-long search... Thank you for your continued support and cooperation... Thank you for the hard work and dedication of the staff of all departments······"

Listening to the press release on the morning news, everyone in the room looked at each other and expressed disbelief.

They know some inside information, so naturally they know that the truth will definitely not be so simple.

However, in order not to cause public panic, the truth of some events can only be known internally, and external reports must be another set of rhetoric!

As for the public's right to know?

Sometimes, not knowing is the happiest!

Link quickly wiped out the bread in his mouth and took a sip of milk, a faint smile on his lips.

The matter should have been resolved very effectively.

Because, when he slept well last night, a light of merit fell from the sky and illuminated his purple mansion.

At this moment, there were already a few more wisps of gold in his purple mansion that were invisible to the naked eye, and only by running the 'Asking the Heavens' spell could he capture this mysterious merit.

"Just by doing such a small job, you can get so much gold, if you complete the task by yourself, wouldn't it... Hey hey ······"

But this matter can only be thought about, with his current strength, it would be good to be able to pick up a few strands of wool.

Besides, if you let the Holy Qaeda know that their mission in Holy Moon City has failed, so many people have died because of a certain little guy.

Hehe, then Talah's hatred is high!

"Maybe it's cause and effect!"
