Chapter 33: Escape
Byrne piloted the plane through a cloud of white fog, like a bird breaking through a prison and spreading its wings in the air.
He looked down from the window, and Mount Gabriel looked so small that it was left behind by the plane.
Although Los Angeles is the second largest city in the United States, there are not many high-rise buildings, and the urban area is very large, full of bungalows and villas.
At the moment, the cabin in the back was busy, with Ivana, Amanda and Goonev taking care of Professor Shen Fei and Glover, the two wounded.
Professor Shen Fei is still stable, Glover was bruised in the lower abdomen by the gun, and he was bleeding at first, but after Ivana's simple treatment, he is not in danger of his life at present.
Amanda sat in the front passenger seat and said:
"Uncle Bourne, Glover, and the professor are all injured, and we have to take them to the hospital. ”
Byrne asked:
"How's they doing? Who won't give up easily, and we'll try not to risk landing in the United States. ”
Amanda says:
Ivana took good care of her, she said that Glover was only bruised, and Professor Shen did not hurt the bones, so there should be no life-threatening injuries. ”
Byrne nodded:
"Bear with me. We went to Mexico first, where we had my friends and they would take good care of them. ”
Amanda asked, "Mexico?" did you make arrangements? Uncle Bourne?"
Byrne replied:
"The fuel tanks of this plane are too small, we need to go to Mexico to refuel first, your dad has already arranged it, we will meet in Hong Kong, Amanda, this time we are leaving the United States forever. ”
Amanda said: "I'm so worried about my dad. ”
"Amanda, believe me, Nathan has been through too many crises in his life, and he has always been able to turn the tide," Byrne said. He will definitely come to Hong Kong to meet us. ”
Then Ivana suddenly came over and shouted, "Glover has fainted. ”
Amanda hurriedly got up and came to the back, only to see Glover's eyes closed and his face pale.
Goonev reclined the rear seat and gently placed Glover on top of it, allowing him to lie down.
Then he said: "He was just a flesh wound, it should be fine, I think it may be due to excessive blood loss, so I fainted." ”
Amanda took Ivana's hand and said, "We're going to Mexico now, where we have Uncle Bourne's friends and they'll take good care of you." ”
Ivana nodded and said, "I'll take care of Glover, but Amanda, what are you going to do?"
Amanda said: "Hong Kong, my dad will be waiting for me there. ”
At this time, Professor Shen Fei suddenly said, "I'll go to Hong Kong with you." ”
Ivana said, "No, you have to stay. You've got to get the bullet out of your leg, or you're in trouble. ”
Professor Shen Fei shook his head, then turned to look at Amanda and said:
"My daughters and sons-in-law are both in China, you can go with me to them, they will help you and your father. ”
Although Byrne was flying the plane at this time, he still heard the conversation behind it very clearly, although he promised Amanda that his father Nathan would be fine, but whether he could see Nathan in Hong Kong this time, he actually didn't know whether he could see Nathan in Hong Kong this time.
Hearing that Professor Shen was able to provide support over there, he said loudly: "Amanda, do what the professor wants, let's take him." ”
At this point, Ivana said, "Amanda, can we meet again in the future? Who are they, and why are you chasing after you?"
Amanda recounted what the NPRC organization and Colonel Karen had said in the tent that day.
When she recounts that two people stole two children from the medical research center in the middle of the night, one was her father Nathan, and the other was Joseph, a maintenance worker, who had fled to Russia, Goonev suddenly exclaimed "ah" from the side.
Everyone turned their heads to look at Goonev, only to see that Goonev had a strange expression on his face, was silent for a while, and said in a trembling voice:
"Joseph .... He's my adoptive father!"
Everyone was taken aback, and there was silence in the cabin.
Professor Shen Fei's eyes lit up and said, "You are the boy that the maintenance worker took away?"
Goonev put his head in his hands: "I don't know, but Joseph raised me since I was a child, and every time I asked him who my real parents were, he would lose his temper and get drunk." ”
Professor Shen Fei suddenly smiled:
"This is really God's arrangement! You two have grown up, and you will meet again. Hehe, this is really fate!"
Then Shen Fei said solemnly on his face: "However, Colonel Karen doesn't know that it wasn't just the two of you who were actually lost that night, at least five children were missing that night. ”
As soon as the words fell, Amanda and Goonev were both taken aback.
"Professor, what the hell is going on?" Amanda asked.
Professor Shen Fei said slowly: "I am the leader of the natural discipline at Stanford University, and I joined the NPRC organization by chance. At the time, I simply thought that this organization was just a group that studied natural phenomena, and I didn't expect it to be so complicated. ”
"The NPRC has a lot of support from the top of the political community, but it doesn't belong to any country. ”
"As Colonel Karen said, he was founded by some of the oldest families in Europe, but who are these families? ”
"This ancient family holds a lot of elites in politics, business, science, sports and even Hollywood, and it's a very large system, and many people in the organization don't know each other. ”
"Trust me, this organization is too strong for everyone to stand up to, so you must be united. ”
Amanda and Goonev looked at each other and both nodded vigorously.
"Where are the others, and how can we find them?" asked Goonev.
Professor Shen Fei looked at the two and said, "I just know that one of these children is in the United States, it is Amanda you, and the other is in Russia, it is you Gonev." ”
Professor Shen paused for a moment and continued:
"The whereabouts of the other children are top secret, and I only learned from the organization by chance that one child is likely to have gone to China, and the other child is in India, and the NPRC organization has been secretly visiting, and as for where the last child is? ”
Everyone was silent, and Amanda and Goonev were secretly determined to find the other children.
At this time, in the suburbs of Tijuana, where Mexico meets the United States, a bearded man is frowning and looking at the sky.
Tijuana is a city on Mexico's northwest frontier, located in the northwest tip of Baja California, on the banks of the Tecatel River, near the Pacific Ocean, and is the fourth largest city in Mexico.
The bearded man's name was Hut, and he was the person Nathan had arranged to wait for Byrne and Amanda here, and he looked at the sky with some anxiety in his heart.
It's been a few days since the agreed time, Byrne and Amanda haven't moved at all, and Nathan has lost contact with him, could it be that something happened, as Nathan's best friend for many years, he can't help but be a little worried.
The sun was setting in the west, reflecting the sunset, and half of the sky was reflected in fiery red.
At sunset, there are empty Mexican farms, and stacks of firewood and wheat rolls are reflected in the golden yellow of the sunset, which exudes a unique charm.
Hutter squinted his eyes at the sky, he seemed to see a dark shadow in the glare of the sunset, he covered one hand over his socket, but his slitted eyes were even smaller.
Then Huter's beard trembled, and the image of the setting sun gradually became clear and full in his eyes, it was clearly an airplane, flashing in the afterglow of the setting sun, flying in his direction.
Hutt shook his hands, his heart was extremely excited, and he suddenly turned and ran towards the barn behind him.
He knew the person he was waiting for had finally arrived.
