Chapter 1178 Die Hard 2
“Didi Didi——Radio station, radio station? Didi Didi——Can the flight take off? Damn it, what’s going on?”
Passenger plane pilot The captain wanted to contact the ground for clearance, but found that there was noise in the communication and there was no response from the ground.
This made the captain's heart sink, and then he subconsciously looked around. When he found that there was no difference between the second officer and the intern, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
“Today’s weather is inherently bad and the signal is still so bad, it’s best to ground the flight.”
The second officer on the side also heard that the communication was unstable, and he laughed and joked about it.
Although captains make money by flying time, their income is high. For most captains, the money they earn is enough to cover their expenses by flying a few times a month.
It’s just that for airlines, the cost of training a captain is very high. Even if the captain is imported from outside, the transfer fee is also very expensive.
So from the airline's point of view, of course, the captain cannot be left idle. It is best to keep running so as not to lose money.
So for the captain, if the flight is grounded due to bad weather, it is a good thing.
"It's a beautiful thought. It's just a normal typhoon. It won't have any impact after takeoff."
The captain smiled, and then he stood up.
“I’ll go out and take a look, and I’ll contact the ground later.”
What the second officer and the trainee captain didn’t notice was that some of their captain’s actions seemed different from usual. .
Dong dong dong——
Next to the church, two young men in electrician uniforms were busy.
But their busyness is not for repairs, but for destruction.
They dug up the hardened cement floor and cut off the various lines inside. Judging from the seals on the outside of the lines, it was obvious that these lines were laid by the airport.
As the two men dug more and more locations, the airport's communications and various signal transmission and reception began to be affected.
But at first, the airport didn't care about it.
Because the meteorological observatory has issued warnings for a long time, typhoons have landed in the past few days.
Moreover, America's infrastructure started a long time ago. As labor costs have become higher and higher in recent years, these various communications are all handled by private companies. Because of the high costs and no increase in profits, Many old facilities have not been refurbished, and communications themselves are intermittent.
People at the airport thought that this time, like many other times, was just a normal communication impact.
The plan to recruit people failed, John quickly walked towards Carter.
“Huh, man, what I am about to say may not be correct, but you must believe me, believe in the keenness of a police officer who has just survived a terrorist attack and has extensive experience in handling cases. ”
John and Carter were not familiar with each other, and an old white man like him would naturally have a feeling of distrust towards a black man like Carter who had an out-of-touch personality.
If it were not to prevent possible dangers, he would not be willing to deal with such people.
So after coming to Carter's side, John immediately chose to stack armor for himself because the other party didn't believe him and wasted time by asking questions. He felt that this would enhance his persuasiveness.
"Um, are you trying to make me believe in God?"
In fact, John's worries are not wrong, just like John naturally feels that Carter is unreliable.
Carter could also see at a glance the rigid and arrogant temperament of an old white police officer like John. He had experienced too many such guys at Luojishan Police Station, so naturally he couldn't get along with him.
So the first time he heard John say this, he guessed that the other party must be looking for something bad for him.
"Hey, listen, if it wasn't an emergency, I wouldn't want to come to you, but now we have to get rid of some unnecessary stereotypes, you know."
When John heard Carter Those words full of ridicule and the preaching thoughts in his heart suddenly emerged uncontrollably.
"OK, OK, I think you are definitely not quarreling with me when you go to such trouble to find me. If you have any questions, just tell me directly."
Compared to John's impatience, Carter had a lot of dealings with old white men like John at the police station, but he was better able to control his emotions.
"Huh, you are very good. That's it. When the two patrolmen were patrolling just now, I found two people acting suspiciously. They seemed to have brought some contraband. I want you to take a look. Look.”
With Carter’s initiative to give in, John proudly praised the other party before explaining his purpose.
"Contraband, then you should go directly to the airport patrol. This is not our territory."
Carter originally thought that John was looking for him because he had other important matters, but he heard When there were suspicious people carrying contraband, he immediately lost interest.
America is a federal state, and each state has its own laws and regulations. Many things that are illegal in one state are legal in another state.
At the same time, because of its vast territory and sparse population, airplanes are the most convenient and most commonly used means of transportation in America.
So it is not too common for someone to check in some special things on a plane.
America Airport has its own security force, and Carter is certainly not willing to go through such a thankless effort for such a small thing.
“No, no, no, those two people have different temperaments. I suspect that they may be related to the two things that Warren from the Bureau of Investigation said. This may involve a terrorist attack. I can’t believe it. Police at the airport.”
Hearing Carter's excuse, John suddenly became anxious.
"What, a terrorist attack, are you sure?"
Carter didn't care at first, but when he heard the word terrorist attack, he suddenly became like John.
If someone had told Carter before last night that someone wanted to carry out a terrorist attack in Luoji Mountain, Carter would definitely not believe it.
But what happened at the Zhongfu Group Building last night has made everyone excited, just in case there is another one.
Especially after America experienced the 9/11 incident, she became very wary of airplanes.
“Where are they?”
Carter finally decided to go and have a look.
"It's right over there. Hey, look, they are walking very carefully. Where is that location?"
Hearing Carter's promise, John originally pointed to the two suspicious young men. of location.
But the two people happened to be moving at this time, and soon they entered a small door not far from the hall.
"How do I know? Just ask someone who knows."
Carter was initially wary of John's words. He didn't know whether it was preconceptions or real perceptions, but he also I felt that when the two people were walking just now, they were indeed more vigilant than ordinary people, and their temperaments were indeed outstanding, and they could be distinguished from ordinary people at a glance.
But before he had time to observe carefully, the two suspicious young men left the hall.
So Carter quickly walked to the place where the two young men entered, but when Carter pushed the door, he found that the door was locked and needed to be swiped open to open it.
So he looked around and immediately spotted a black guy, who was a staff member responsible for carrying luggage.
The card on the opponent's body is very similar to the one used by the two suspicious young men who entered before.
Carter immediately waved to the other party.
It has to be said that although black people often suffer discrimination due to their skin color, they are considered a pass in front of people of the same skin color.
At least if John calls this black guy, he will definitely not be so cooperative.
Carter just waved, but the black guy ran over immediately. "Hey, how can I help you?"
The young man is very enthusiastic.
"Hey, brother, can you open this door?"
Carter smiled and greeted the other party, and then asked directly.
"Of course, this is the baggage check-in room. Of course I can open it."
The young man said as he raised his work badge to indicate that he was responsible for handling luggage at the airport.
"Very good, then help me open this door, and then find some reliable airport police officers to come over."
Carter directly took out his police officer ID and showed it in front of the young man. , and then gave instructions to the other party.
"Wow, are you taking any action? It won't be very dangerous, sir, there are tens of thousands of people here."
When the young man heard Carter's arrangement, his first reaction was excitement, and then he immediately became worried.
As an international metropolis, Luojishan has a permanent population of tens of millions and many airports.
But because this is an international airport, there are many flights and there is naturally a lot of traffic.
Although the number of people and flights flying has decreased today due to the typhoon landing, there are still tens of thousands of people stranded at the airport.
"This is why I asked you to open the door, because I want to go in and check before I can answer your question."
Carter is also a veteran policeman. Of course he knows what to say and what not to say. He also has rich experience in dealing with this kind of young man.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the young man immediately opened the door to the luggage check-in area for him, and then turned around to find the airport police.
“You help me guard the door.”
Carter glanced at John, who had difficulty moving, and took the initiative to arrange for him to guard the door.
“Okay, be careful.”
John did not show off, but reminded the other party to be careful.
"Of course, I have this."
Carter lifted up the corner of his clothes, revealing the pistol on his waist, and then stepped into the luggage check-in room.
There is an assembly line in this room. One end of the assembly line is connected to the baggage check-in area, and the other end leads directly to the boarding platform.
Because the assembly line was built very early, the driving method is still steam. Because it is working now, the whole room is roaring, and the visibility is not very high.
"Damn it, Uncle Carter stinks. This place is really dirty."
This place is also a freight station, so the environment is not good. In addition, there is water vapor in the air, and there is a smell in the air. Weird smell.
Carter walked cautiously and aimlessly inside, and soon he heard two people standing next to the luggage transportation line not far away. They were the young men with outstanding temperament who came in before him.
"Hey, police, what are you doing!"
Because of America's special culture, Carter did not choose to approach the two quietly, but shouted to each other from a distance.
The main reason why he did not get close to the other party was that the identities of the two of them could not be determined yet.
In this case, it is certainly impossible for him to directly attack the two of them.
But what if his guess is true and the two of them really have bad intentions? What if he approaches rashly and the other party suddenly draws a gun and shoots.
These are lessons that many colleagues have learned with their blood and lives. Carter cannot be careless.
“Hey, sir, we are porters at the airport and we are helping customers find their luggage.”
Hearing Carter's words, the two were startled at first, but they reacted quickly.
One of the black men took the initiative to talk to Carter.
"Porters, do you have a work permit?"
Because they were separated by a distance, Carter did not notice anything unusual about the two of them, but he remembered that the black guy outside was also a porter, and the other person was there. I had a work permit with me.
So he thought that if the two of them were really porters, they should also have work permits.
"Of course, of course we do."
When the two heard Carter's question, they hesitated for a moment, but the black guy nodded and answered.
"Very good, show me your work ID."
Carter heard the two people's answers, so he was ready to confirm again.
“.Okay, let’s take it now!”
This time the two hesitated longer, and then another white young man nodded. Then he touched his hand to his waist while speaking.
“Hey, take your hands away——”
Seeing the other party’s actions, Carter, who was originally very relaxed, became nervous. He has been a policeman for many years and has cracked many cases. case, and also encountered many gun battles.
So it is very clear that there is no work permit in this position on the waist. It is more likely to be a gun holster.
So Carter subconsciously stepped aside and warned the two of them at the same time.
BANG BANG BANG——
Carter's instinctive reaction saved his life.
He just moved his body away, and before he could finish speaking, the ground where he was standing was covered by a series of bullets.
Seeing that the warning was ineffective, Carter did not hesitate to pull out his pistol and shoot towards the opposite side.
However, Carter's shot also failed to hit the target. The opponent had quickly moved his position after shooting.
Even when he was shooting, the two young men on the opposite side started shooting in this direction again.
Bang——
The marksmanship of the two people on the other side was even better than Carter's. One of them hit Carter's pistol with one shot and knocked the gun away.
“Fuck!”
When Carter saw this, he was startled. Then without thinking, he lay down on the luggage assembly line not far ahead, letting The luggage above covers my body.
Bang bang bang——
I have to say that Carter’s trick really worked. These old assembly lines built many years ago are made of very solid materials, completely made of pure iron or pure steel. All the bullets fired on it were bounced away.
Carter himself followed the flowing assembly line and slowly moved to the registration desk on the upper level.
Seeing Carter escaping to the assembly line, the two young men who fired did not let him go. Instead, they directly used the shelf next to the assembly line and began to climb up, chasing after Carter. It looked like He wanted to kill people and silence them.
