Qianhu Mountain
The helicopter approached quickly, and it was very quiet inside, with only the faintest hum and the rhythmic sound of machinery.
Pei Ziyun sat in the cabin and felt a strong premonition.
It wasn't necessarily a bad feeling, it was a feeling of great change, like a tide. He suddenly thought of Luobo Island in the sea, as well as Ye Su'er, Qi Qianye, Liao Qingye, and Chu Xia.
-I will never forget them.
Pei Ziyun opened his eyes.
The helicopter was descending, and the police came to greet them. At this time, two to three hundred people had gathered. As soon as Bando Aiko got out of the car, she was greeted.
On the screen that was set up was a map, and a second lieutenant reported: "Qianhu Mountain has only three roads, and they are all steep. Helicopters can go up, but it is difficult to land, and there are still hostages."
"However, the same criminals have nowhere to escape..."
Listening to the report, Bando Aiko looked at Noshu Kazunobu: "You are the commander, please take command!"
"Hey, don't worry, Lady Aiji, we will solve everything." Yezhou and Yan only glanced at the mountain, then said with a smile, sat in front of the screen and commanded: "Release the drone for reconnaissance."
The drone flew up, gradually taking pictures of everything on the mountain. Bando Aiko calmly watched the changes on the screen, feeling her palms sweating slightly. She glanced at Pei Ziyun and noticed that he was watching with cold eyes.
"Yamada-kun is the one who is truly calm." Looking back in a blink of an eye, he saw a large group of people on a gentle terrain halfway up the mountain.
The people in this group seemed to be tourists, including men, women, and children. They looked very bad. From time to time, you could hear crying and sobbing movements, but the movements were very subtle and seemed to be suppressed.
All around, heavily armed men were pointing their guns while observing the surroundings.
These armed men, wearing light green combat uniforms, had resolute expressions and cold eyes. Even in the face of these people's pleading, their eyes did not waver at all. Occasionally, a hint of fierceness could be seen in the eyes that turned. Obviously, these people They are all real combatants who have experienced blood.
Not far away, leaning against a tree, Kazuo Hiura was carefully observing the foot of the mountain with a telescope. His eyes were sharp and he ignored the voice of the foot of the mountain who kept shouting for them to surrender.
Because Hiura Kazuo and his group moved in a hurry and did not even prepare some of their necessary equipment, these ordinary people who were coerced did not receive much treatment.
These people are not only short of water, but also short of food. Now in the mountains, the wind is blowing very cold, which can be said to be hungry and cold.
One of them was a middle-aged man who was obese. His clothes were scratched and he had several serious wounds on his body. The bloody scars had not fully healed, and blood could be seen oozing out.
At this time, unable to bear the terror, Moriguo Haojing lowered his head, threw himself on the ground, hugged the feet of one of the armed men, and screamed loudly: "Ah, please, let me go quickly!!"
In an instant, several guns were pointed at Moriguo Haojing.
"I am the son of Hidenobu Morikuni, the chairman of Teramoto Group. Please let me go. I will definitely retaliate and my father will give you a large ransom!"
The armed man being held by Morikuni Hojing showed impatience in his eyes. He shook his feet vigorously and found that Morikuni Hojing was not shaken off. So he opened the safety "click" and pointed the gun at Morikuni Hojing. Just pull the trigger.
At this time, Hiura Kazuo walked up to Morikuni Koyasu, shook his head slightly at the soldier, indicating not to shoot, raised Morikuni Koyasu's head with his feet, looked down and asked: "Is what you said true? "
The tearful Morikuni Kojing lay on the ground, raised his head and looked at Hiura Kazuo with a smile on his face, trembling: "Yes! Please let me go!"
After hearing his answer, Hiura Kazuo couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He turned his hand and ordered: "Go, get him some food and warm clothes."
"Hi!" Someone bowed his head in response.
Seeing that the faces of all the passengers looked much better, Kazuo Hiura smiled. This made the passengers think that he was just seeking money, which made him feel more at ease. Then he thought about it, and a phone vibrated in his arms.
Kazuo Hiura's eyes narrowed slightly, he walked to one side, waved his hands to keep others away from him, and asked respectfully: "Sir, what are your orders?"
"We have determined that there are only 13 hours left when the gods descend. You just need to delay." A short voice came from the other side and hung up.
"Hey, I got it!" Hiura Kazuo replied with a jolt of energy.
At the foot of the mountain, at the temporary headquarters, someone suddenly shouted: "Report, there is a special signal, and it is suspected that Kazuo Hiura above is in contact with the outside world!"
"Analyzing the signal, can we tell who Hiura Kazuo is in contact with?" Noshu and Nobu asked immediately.
"Sorry, Major!" A staff member kept typing on the keyboard while sweating profusely: "This is a set of complex encrypted signals that we cannot parse in a short time!"
"And the call only lasted about 13 seconds."
"I knew there must be someone behind this group of people!" Noshu and Yan knocked on the wooden board with their hands, making the wooden board make a "click" sound: "Negotiation expert, is Takekawa Masaki here?"
Takegawa Masaaki, 50 years old, is from Tokyo. He was born into a family of police officers. He has outstanding abilities and has created many negotiation miracles. He is called the "Negotiation Master" by the Japanese media.
Among them, the "Ueno Bank Robbery" and the "8.29 Aomori Hostage-taking Incident" that shocked the whole of Japan were both negotiated by Masaaki Takekawa personally, resulting in relatively good results.
Not only that, Takekawa Masaaki proposed an "anti-robbery tactics theory" and trained many negotiation experts for Japan.
"Masaki Takekawa has arrived and is preparing now." A staff member answered.
"If Takekawa Masaki is ready, let him go to negotiate immediately." Noshu and Nobu ordered: "Each small organization is ready for a strong attack."
"Hi!"
Qianhu Mountain
An armed man holding a submachine gun quickly ran to Kazuo Hiura in small steps and reported: "Sir, the negotiators from the shogunate have arrived."
"Do you want it?" The armed man's eyes were filled with fierceness.
"No!" Kazuo Hiura looked at the drone footage, then looked at the negotiators who were more than twenty meters away below, and smiled slightly: "You're here just in time!"
"Go and tell him that if these demands of ours are met, we can release the hostages in batches."
"First of all, ask the officials to prepare food and water for 100 people for three days, and at the same time prepare 20 latest Kakul off-road vehicles. Tell them that the son of Hidenobu Morikuni, chairman of Teramoto Group, is also in our hands."
"In addition, ten small assault boats are needed!"
"You ask them to prepare 30 Thatcher submachine guns and 10,000 rounds of corresponding bullets for me."
"Ask them to send three helicopters, and we will decide the specific time when they get here."
Hiura Kazuo said without hesitation.
"Hi!" Someone remembered, quickly went over, and started arguing with the people coming below. After a long time, Takechuan Masaki wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the gun pointed at him, and carefully stepped back from the mountain step by step.
Someone immediately gathered around and asked, "How was the negotiation?"
Takegawa Masaaki did not answer immediately. He took a bottle of water, took a sip, relaxed, and walked towards the command center in small steps. In fact, Takegawa Masaaki had a synchronization machine on his body. The command center already knew the negotiation process and recorded it. Takegawa Masaaki was still an eye. Narrowing his eyes slightly, he said to Noshu Kazunobu, "Hiura Kazuo's group of people are very demanding."
"Not only food, but also escape tools and even a large number of weapons were required."
"We can't meet these requirements, especially escape tools and weapons." Noshu and Yan were not surprised, looking at the mountain and said coldly.
After a few rounds, Noshu and Yan ordered: "Since we are sincere about releasing the hostages in batches, you will first send the requested food to urge the release of the hostages."
"Do you want to put medicine in water and food?" someone asked.
"No, it's only for the hostages to use. Don't cause trouble." Masaaki Takekawa said immediately: "This will anger the gangsters and cause bloody incidents."
"Okay, let's do it, prepare this food immediately!" Noshu and Nobu ordered. In modern society, these are nothing. Soon, the food and water requested by Hiura Kazuo were delivered to Qianhu Mountain.
What is surprising is that after Kazuo Hiura received the food, he readily released the seven hostages.
When the hostages came down from Qianhu Mountain, a large group of reporters filmed them.
This hijacking incident has already caused a stir.
Major Japanese media have already sent reporters waiting to get first-hand latest news. Several of the most authoritative official media have received permission from the military to interview several hostages who have narrowly escaped death.
The released hostages were surrounded by reporters, with flashbulbs flashing and cameras pointing, asking questions regardless of the hostages' expressions of panic or uneasiness.
"May I ask who you are? Where are you from? Are you traveling here?"
"If you were captured, were you tortured? Did you kill any hostages?"
"Are there women and children up there? How do you feel about being released now? How do you feel about the women and children up there who have not been released? Eh... don't leave. Please tell me how you feel, please!"
This chaos can be called a farce. Noshu and Nobu shouted angrily: "What's going on? These media and reporters are acting like this?"
"I heard that the higher-ups asked for freedom of the press and allowed interviews." A second lieutenant said awkwardly.
"Asshole!" In a democratic society, the news media is very powerful, so Noshu and Nobu could only curse.
"Is this the third batch?" It was getting late at night, and more and more cars were being interviewed. Pei Ziyun looked at this scene with some confusion, feeling a little strange, because every time a condition was met, the other party would release a few people. The move was very strange.
Everyone knows that the hostages will be released, and although the other party has proposed helicopters and other escape tools, their attitude is not tough.
Don't they want to escape
This thought flashed through Pei Ziyun's mind, and he suddenly realized it. He quickly took out his mobile phone and searched for relevant information. He found that all the hostage release news was exposed on the Internet and had become headlines across Japan.
"All Japan is paying attention. If the gangsters refuse to negotiate, they can attack by force."
"But now every once in a while, a batch is released. Japan as a whole will not allow the police to attack by force at this time, and can only continue to negotiate."
"Are you trying to delay time?"
Pei Ziyun immediately turned around and arrived in front of Bando Aiko. Without any nonsense, he immediately explained his suspicions.
Bando Aiko was startled and frowned: "Yamada-kun, are you saying that the other party is stalling for time?"
"Yes, because the hostages are released in compliance with the requirements, although each batch is small, the police have no reason to attack, and the people will not agree." Pei Ziyun held up his mobile phone and said: "The public opinion created on the Internet is also for this purpose, but why I don’t know.”
Bando Aiko turned around a few times and pondered: "Negotiation expert Masaaki Takekawa also has doubts, and we are also prepared for this."
"Now, there are several teams on standby."
"As soon as the hostages are almost released, we will attack them." A cold light appeared in Bando Aiko's eyes: "No one can escape."
Just as he said this, the world suddenly shook, and Bando Aizi staggered and almost fell down.
