Chapter 248 Hijacking

Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao sat quietly in their seats, looking somewhat nonchalant. But in reality, they were both maintaining the highest level of vigilance, ready to deal with any unexpected situation that might arise.

However, to their surprise, the whole journey was quiet and nothing happened on the plane.

Seeing that the plane was about to land, Zhong Nian Yao did not breathe a sigh of relief, but her expression became even more solemn.

She was certain she wasn't mistaken, because as the plane got closer to its destination, the deathly aura surrounding the people around her grew thicker.

Just as the plane was about to land, it suddenly shook.

The passengers on the bus were all startled, but they didn't take it too seriously. After all, when a plane is flying at an altitude of over 10,000 meters, it is inevitable that it will encounter some turbulence due to air currents.

What no one could have imagined was that after the plane calmed down, the people who had been sitting in the back rows of the economy class suddenly pulled out guns and took everyone in the economy class hostage.

Soon, the door between first class and economy class was opened, and two armed gangsters walked in directly, pointing their guns at everyone present, and then said fiercely, "We have hijacked this plane now. If you know what's good for you, then cooperate well. If you don't know what's good for you—"

At this point, he sneered a few times, then continued, "The gun in my hand is not vegetarian. When the time comes, the bullet has no eyes, and whoever is injured or killed will be what you deserve."

The sudden hijacking caused a panic among the people on the plane. Many people started crying and some even wanted to get up and run away.

For a moment, the cabin was in chaos. Only after one of the passengers was shot and fell to the ground, his life or death unknown, did the others calm down.

Then, a broadcast was made on the plane. However, this time, it was not made by the crew, but by one of the hijackers. His voice echoed in the cabin, causing even more panic among the people on board.

"Everyone, this plane is now under our control. Don't worry, our request is simple. We just want to negotiate with the federal government and release a few people. As long as the government is willing to cooperate, you can return home safely. Otherwise--"

Although the words were not finished, the meaning was already very clear. If the government did not cooperate, then the fate of the people on this plane would definitely not be good.

Many people couldn't help sobbing softly. They were terrified, but they didn't dare to make even a loud sound. They were afraid that they would attract the attention of the hijackers and lose their lives.

Inside the cockpit of the aircraft——

The captain was controlling the plane, while the co-pilot had collapsed, blood streaming from his forehead. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would have looked no different from a dead person.

In the back, there was another man holding a pistol and pointing it at the captain, "Fly the plane to the Middle East right now. Otherwise, I will kill you right now."

"This... this is simply impossible." The captain suppressed his fear and spoke, "Not to mention that the fuel on board isn't enough to make it to the Middle East. More importantly, the flight path was planned long ago. If we rashly change the route now, we could collide with another plane at any time."

After hearing the captain's words, the hijacker wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he seemed a little excited. "If you don't change your route and fly to the Middle East, I can kill you right now without waiting for a collision."

The captain swallowed and continued to try to control the plane's flight direction, fearing any deviation. At the same time, he also began to contact the tower, hoping that adjustments could be made as soon as possible so that he could change the flight direction.

However, even though he had done so, the captain had already prepared for the worst-case scenario. Besides the flight route, the most important issue was the fuel.

He had already told the person behind him, but it was obvious that the other party would not listen at all.

Moreover, from the fact that the man had just forced him to contact the control tower and ask the federal government to release the hostages, he could vaguely guess that this was no ordinary hijacking, because the hijackers nowadays were all foreign terrorists.

In first class——

The other passengers were already panicking, but the expressions on Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao's faces did not change at all. They glanced at each other and immediately understood each other's plan.

Now they understand everything.

The plane they were on had been hijacked by several foreign terrorists. The reason these terrorists did this was because their leaders had been captured by the federal government last month.

In order to rescue a few leaders, they have now held hostage the entire plane in order to force the federal government to submit.

The door between first class and economy class had long been closed, leaving only two men armed with pistols in economy class, looking incredibly ferocious. One was bald, with a scar running the length of his face, a striking sight. The other, thin, had no scars on his face, but his expression was exceptionally gloomy. He glared at the first-class passengers with a venomous gaze, as if ready to bite them at any moment.

The bald man looked at those people and finally landed on Zhong Nianyao. An excited smile immediately appeared on his face. "Look what I found. I didn't expect that there was such a stunning beauty hiding here! It seems that today's trip is really worthwhile!"

After saying that, he rubbed his hands and walked towards Zhong Nian Yao with a smile.

After joining a terrorist organization, these people are like tying their lives to their belts, and they could die at any time. Therefore, they pursue the concept of enjoying life in the moment.

Now that he saw such a stunning beauty like Zhong Nian Yao, he naturally would not let her go.

Soon, the bald man came in front of Zhong Nianyao, and the astonishment in his eyes became even more intense. Then, he stretched out his hand and was about to wipe it towards Zhong Nianyao's face.
