"I'll give you 10 seconds to shut up," the man smiled cruelly. He raised the muzzle of the gun slightly and pointed it at the baby in her arms. "Or, I'll help you."
"...Seriously, I'm really sorry, the kid...maybe he's hungry. I, I..."
Lu Zhou looked away from the window and sighed softly.
"Got it." The index finger of his right hand gently pushed the safety, and then rested it on the trigger. Russas's smile gradually became filled with bloodlust and cruelty.
"It seems they are not going to let me go home."
The girl covered her mouth with both hands, suppressing the scream that almost filled her throat.
Almost as soon as he stood up, the hijacker pointed his gun at her.
The moment she was looked at by that gaze, the woman's face suddenly lost all color and turned as pale as cement dust.
"We have to find a way to escape from here."
Without even having time to say a last word, the hijacker tilted his head to the side as if his head had been pushed, and then fell to the ground silently.
"What are you going to do?"
The bionic man sent by Xiao Ai can barely be regarded as a help, but it is too far away at the moment. As a thing between luggage and people, it is waiting next to the luggage compartment.
"No...I beg you, don't do this..."
However, the pleading voice failed to restore some humanity to that cold gaze.
"Your child is... very cute."
"...The safety is already on, just pull the trigger."
She desperately covered the child's mouth, trying to make the child stop crying. However, the more she did this, the more uncontrollable the child's crying sound became.
And this action also made everyone in the cabin raise their hearts to their throats, fearing that he would pull the trigger and let them see a scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere.
The woman suddenly panicked and begged.
"Besides snatching the spaceship back, what else can we do?"
It would be great if Wang Peng was here...
However, just when everyone believed without a doubt that the girl was finished, a soft buzzing sound suddenly came from the side.
A magnetic slingshot with decent lethality, and a nitrogen shield that I haven't used yet and don't know if it works well.
With the current speed of this spaceship, these robbers have no intention of letting them return alive.
With a hint of cruelty and impatience in his voice, the hijacker wearing an exoskeleton standing in the cabin cast his cold gaze on the woman holding the child.
"Give."
Already having a premonition of what kind of bloody scene would follow, Professor Leonard, who had been watching from the side since the beginning, couldn't bear to close his eyes.
After returning the child to the woman, the girl gave her a forced but reassuring smile.
The woman sitting next to her holding a child wanted to plead for her savior, but looking at the bloodthirsty expression on the hijacker's face, she couldn't say a word.
The hijacker raised his eyebrows, as if he thought of something interesting, and moved his gun to the side.
The side of the hijacker's helmet made a clanging sound without warning.
There are only two things that can be used.
"Do you think you won't die if you don't do anything?"
And that guy was just a bodyguard sent by Xiao Ai, not remotely controlled by Xiao Ai. Facing these militants who were armed to the teeth, the chances of winning were still unknown...
The hijacker smiled cruelly, raised his gun and pointed it at the short-haired girl's forehead.
Under the pressure exerted by the hijacker, the woman holding the child was completely panicked.
The sound of coughing from the side interrupted this touching scene.
At the same time, the voices of teammates came from the communication channel.
"Let me see which restless guy is causing trouble behind..."
"Three disconnected... cardiac arrest."
Leonard's face was pale, and his trembling lips seemed to be struggling with something.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from the side, and a girl with shoulder-length short hair who looked like she was of Chinese descent raised her hands and stood up timidly.
Above the wrist of his right hand, several small metal balls, about the size of half a peanut, were surrounding them in a chaotic manner, as if they were being held up by some invisible force field.
"I didn't mean to offend you... I'll go back right away."
"Or, wait until you get down and think about it slowly."
Looking at the trembling citizen of the Great Empire next to him, Lu Zhou was speechless for a while and then sighed silently in his heart.
"Escape? How do you plan to escape?" Professor Leonard glared and lowered his voice and asked, "Don't do anything stupid. They are just looking for money. Generally, sky pirates like this will release people after taking the ransom. .”
How can this be answered? !
Lu Zhou smiled faintly.
It was this cry that made his already tense heart suddenly rise to his throat.
There was no time to defend.
Looking at the stunned juniors in the cabin, Lu Zhou gave them a reassuring smile, then made a silent gesture, walked to the body, and picked up the rifle that fell on the ground.
On the screen, the team member marked No. 3 has turned gray.
In a stammering voice, the woman looked at the hijacker and begged.
"I'll give you a chance. If you can accurately report how many seconds have just passed, I will spare your life."
However, after some struggle, the fear of death finally defeated the low sense of justice in his heart, and in the end he did nothing, just like the choice that most people would make at this time.
The girl was trembling, sweat beading on her forehead.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou couldn't help but feel a headache.
With his lips trembling, Professor Leonard took a while to squeeze out a sentence from his throat.
The woman looked at her with grateful eyes and choked with sobs.
After playing with it in his hand, Lu Zhou looked back at Professor Leonard, walked back to him and asked.
"Wait a moment!"
"Do you know how to use this thing?"
The countdown has begun, with a hint of teasing.
"Have you forgotten your current situation?"
"You're welcome, I just—"
"He's just a child. This will only make him cry harder and harder..." Although she was frightened, the girl still said in a trembling voice, "Can I... calm him down?"
On flight N-177.
Glancing sideways at Professor Leonard who almost shrank under the chair, Lu Zhou was silent for a while and spoke to him in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
On the contrary, it gave it an almost beast-like cruel light.
Facing that cruel smile, the girl felt despair in her heart, her lips trembled, and she couldn't say a word.
Just when Lu Zhou was heading to the luggage compartment, planning to wake up the android sent by Xiao Ai, Russas, who was standing in the cockpit, suddenly had a fierce light in his eyes.
Knowing that he probably couldn't count on this guy, he calmly used the index finger of his left hand to open the cuff of his right hand half an inch, revealing a small bracelet, while observing the environment in the cabin. Look for opportunities to help yourself.
"You interrupted my countdown, I hope you better ring for me."
Looking at Professor Leonard who looked frightened, Lu Zhou gave him a helpless look at his ignorance.
Upon hearing this, the girl's whole body stiffened.
He thought he had a very troublesome and insulating physique, but how come he encountered all kinds of troubles when he came to this 22nd century
Looking back at the hijacker and the gun pointed at her, she kept her hands up in a surrender posture and said in a trembling voice.
As if being hung there by a pointed hammer, the flat helmet was suddenly dented from one side and had a hole coming out from the other side.
Just when she had no idea what was going on, a rather handsome man sat up from his seat not far away.
Just when Lu Zhou was thinking about how to break the situation, a baby's cry suddenly sounded in the cabin.
"Thanks."
"9."
"...Are you crazy? Do you know how many hijackers there are on the ship?" Professor Leonard stared at him with wide eyes, "You will kill everyone!"
The girl breathed a sigh of relief, held on to the seat next to her, and carefully walked to the woman holding the baby. After giving her a reassuring look, she took the baby from her arms with a look of despair on her face.
"Who asked you to go back?" The hijacker had a cruel smile on his face, "Every code is a code, and you haven't settled the account for interrupting my countdown."
Trying to overcome her fear and compose herself, the girl held the baby in her arms, humming a lullaby softly and tapping her hands against the swaddle.
"...I don't know what the status of the spaceship in the 22nd century is, but the thruster should still be electric. The route may be different, but the flight logic should not have changed much from my time. According to the current speed and flight status, They are using their lives to compress the deceleration window... I don't know how much fuel is left, but it is already very difficult to slow down by 80%."
"Shut it up."
Soon, the soft voice soothed the crying. The noisy baby's voice became weaker and weaker, his breathing became even again, and he fell into a deep sleep in his swaddle.
Especially judging from the continuous thrust coming from behind, this civilian transport ship, which has no idea how much energy it has left, is probably still moving at full speed at this moment.
Fortunately, the hijacker did not shoot, but the words he spoke seemed to be only one thought away from shooting.
It was too late to even react.
If he had to choose a way to die, he would rather choose a more dignified one.
"I see. It seems that the weapons have not changed much."
