Another purpose
Naturally, four words popped up in my mind... Terrorist? !
"Those people, including Ramucci, seem to have no interest in jewelry, because they are a group of extremely dangerous elements who are ready to commit terrorist attacks at any time... Only these terrorists who 'see death as home' at any time will not treat Interested in these extraneous things!"
These are Yang Wei's analysis.
And after adding the four things she just said together, the context of the whole thing is almost obvious!
I immediately stood up, walked back and forth in the room twice, looked at Yang Wei: "If they are terrorists..."
Yang Wei raised her hand and stroked lightly on her neck... Her eyes were a little gloomy: "Terrorist attacks, of course, must attract widespread attention! Only in this way can we hit the enemy physically and psychologically to the greatest extent! First of all, tonight All the people gathered here are Hollywood celebrities, those big stars, representatives of big companies, investors, filmmakers...these people are the focus of media attention from all over the world. Just imagine...Hollywood is now almost American cultural invasion of the world A cultural tool! And if these people all die here tonight... what will be the consequences?"
The muscles in the corners of my eyes twitched... I am afraid that the huge and powerful film industry and film economy in the United States will go back at least thirty years, if not collapse immediately! And the destruction of the film economy will cause a series of chain reactions... Such a terrorist attack may not be inferior to the 911 incident!
"So, you mean, maybe they will take extreme measures?"
Yang Wei shook his head: "I'm just guessing... because the current analysis of this matter seems to be the case. Otherwise, ordinary robbers don't have such high-quality personnel, but they use such nondescript action plans."
So, if our hypothesis is true, these people are terrorists, and they intend to carry out terrorist attacks... Then what will happen? Shooting and killing nearly three hundred top figures in the American film industry here
"I think they want to attract attention first, and the purpose is to make the incident as big as possible." Yang Wei analyzed carefully: "So, they deliberately hijacked these people first, and then announced the news, and The police contacted, negotiated, confronted, and with a buffer time, this matter will be widely concerned by various media around the world... If you don't believe me, outside the isolation zone downstairs, there are probably already gathered interview cars from major media around the world! Now I don’t know how many cameras are aimed at our building! If a huge horror happens in front of so many cameras, immediately everything here will become images and sounds, which will spread to thousands of families all over the world Tens of thousands of TVs and radios! It is also a huge blow to the psychology of the American people and the US government."
"As for us, look, they are not in a hurry to break through here and catch us! Because I'm afraid, even if we hide here, as long as we don't run out of this floor...the other party is sure and will kill us too..." Yang Wei low voice.
My conversations with her were all in Chinese, which didn’t shock the others, but Lei Xiaohu’s changed a bit, he opened his mouth, and smiled wryly: “Oh my god, uncle, we won’t So lucky, such a thing has also been encountered by us, right?"
I didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately walked in front of the computer, ignoring the gazes of others, and directly turned on the computer to contact the other party.
Soon, I got in touch with that Officer Lewis.
He looked anxious and tired, but calm.
"Officer Louis." I stared at the camera and said slowly, "I think there is something that I need to talk to you about!"
"Did something happen to your place?" Officer Louis frowned.
I thought for a while, and said, "No, not yet... But what I want to ask is, have you confirmed the identities of these gangsters? They look like Middle Easterners, and only three of them are white. These Can you confirm the identity of the person?"
My question was probably very strange. Officer Louis thought for a while and said, "What's wrong?"
"Please answer me, our time is precious, and the battery is not much." I said slowly.
"Okay!" He said slowly: "There is no confirmation yet, but we have found out that they got in through the food company that provided food for this demonstration. We found three people in a warehouse in a nearby block. A food delivery car belonging to that company. In the three cars, about eleven employees of the company have all been shot dead. We have reason to suspect that the car of the food company was stopped by these people halfway. Then they killed the people from the food company and entered the building under their identities. And we have now found out that in the parking lot below the building, there was also a parking lot guard who was killed and the body was placed in The car had the logo of a food company on it, and it was believed to have been modified and sneaked in. The security guard probably discovered something, but was killed. So far, the death toll has reached Thirteen!"
"I'm afraid fifteen." I added. "I saw them kill two security guards in the makeshift kitchen."
Police Officer Louis was stunned, and then said: "We intercepted the pictures of 19 cameras in the parking lot, and after analyzing them, we can confirm the identities of three of them... The leader is Jack, who was arrested by twelve An extremely dangerous person wanted by the state. He has robbed thirteen banks, nine of which were successful, and killed six policemen, four bank security guards, and two hostages! But that Ramucci you mentioned, his We are still unable to confirm his identity. After we contacted him, someone has entered his image data into the computer to search... Unfortunately, his identity, in the data we control, is... zero!"
Seeing the change in Police Officer Louis' eyes, I sighed and said in a low voice, "You...you must have guessed something, right?"
The conversation between me and the policeman was in English, which finally attracted the attention of others. One of the men immediately shouted: "God, what the hell are you talking to him... Is there any problem with the identity of the gangster? Damn it, stop wasting your computer's battery!"
I glanced at this guy who didn't realize that we were already in danger, ignored him, and continued: "Officer Louis, you are more experienced than us, I believe you must feel something is wrong, right? Well... now they Did you ask anything of you? Can you tell me?"
"This..." He was hesitating, and I immediately said loudly: "Don't forget, we are also in the building now! So please tell me!!"
A gleam flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "They asked for the password to open the jewelry cabinet. We already have negotiators to deal with this point. We, the police, have no right to decide on these jewelry issues, so we are still in a stalemate... and they There has been a request... a request to release their video to the media."
I sigh.
This is obvious!
"... If we don't agree to their request, after another half an hour, they will start killing one hostage every ten minutes of blocking. And after an hour, they will kill two hostages every ten minutes of blocking." Police Officer Louis said blankly. expression.
"So, what about the other demands? For example, their evacuation demands? They wouldn't be so stupid as to ask you for a car, because it's easy to block roads. They must have asked for a helicopter, right?"
"Yes!" Police Officer Louis said after thinking for a while, "They did ask for a helicopter. I think they will plan to escape from the air, and when they escape, they will also take a group of hostages to the plane to prevent our airborne Intercept."
"They are delaying time." Yang Wei's voice came from beside me, she came to my side, Yang Wei's face was somewhat weak, and he said slowly: "I suspect that these people are terrorists. , They may already be preparing to take extreme measures. Now they are just delaying time to prevent the police from directly forcibly breaking through after confirming their intentions! They still want to continue to delay time and further expand the impact of this matter... "
Yang Wei said these words to me, and she spoke Chinese. I looked back at her and nodded.
"Wait a minute..." Police Officer Louis suddenly listened with his earphones, and then his face turned a little ugly: "The latest news... They made a request... They asked to open the video signal to the media... And they made a request... Damn! These people It's really not gangsters! They are terrorists!! I'm going to go away, and I will contact you in five minutes!!"
After speaking, Officer Louis hurried away.
I turned off the screen and went back into battery saver mode.
I glanced at Yang Wei, and found that she was trembling slightly... She was clearly not afraid, but very weak.
"What's wrong with you? Tell me!" I gently hugged her waist, feeling that Yang Wei's body was a little soft, and helped her to the side.
Yang Wei shook her head, her breath was a little short, and her face became even more flushed: "Xiao Wu, listen carefully. I'm afraid we have to find a way to get out of here... Yes, I'm right. Looking at it now, I have reason to doubt , these people are going to take extreme measures, and at the same time, and...the reason why they didn't deal with us, they didn't talk to us, is because they didn't care that we were hiding here... They have a way to get rid of us at any time! So, we are not here now Safety."
