Chapter 183 Who am I?
"Tell the federal government to release the people they arrested 20 days ago. Now that our people are safe, I will naturally let the hostages go. I know you can cut off the rear compartment. But I tell you, we have installed soul-guided cluster bombs in the first five compartments. I don't need to tell you how many passengers are in these five compartments. You don't have much time. The cluster bomb is set to fire in 30 minutes. If you don't get a clear answer within 30 minutes, hehe, you will all be buried with me."
Gao Tiechang's heart tightened. Twenty days ago? Who did the federal government arrest? There was no news report at all. She was also confused, but since the other party had made such a request, it was obviously not aimless.
"Has their request been notified to headquarters?" she asked the security captain.
The security captain nodded. "We have already notified them. But the headquarters said that it would take half an hour to pass this matter up. Moreover, it is said that those who were arrested are extremely vicious. If we let them go..."
She clenched her teeth and asked, "When will the support arrive?"
"It will probably take another twenty minutes. But there's a bomb now. Even if support arrives, I'm afraid..." The security captain's face was covered in cold sweat.
Her expression suddenly became calm.
The security captain was stunned, "Conductor, are we going to abandon all the hostages?"
She said in a deep voice, "Who said I was giving up? Follow the order."
On the soul-guided high-speed rail, if an emergency occurs, the high-speed rail captain is the highest commander.
The high-speed rail workers all looked over, and the security captain waved his hand, directing the members to retreat slowly.
Then, she shouted to compartment 5, "Please don't be impulsive. We have already raised the conditions, but we need time. Half an hour is too short. Please increase the time of the bomb. Please believe me, I will do my best to mediate and help you achieve your goal. But please also promise me not to harm the hostages."
All high-speed rail personnel and security personnel have evacuated to carriage No. 6.
"How do I know you're not delaying on purpose?" a hoarse voice came from inside.
She said calmly, "You have all installed bombs. Even if we have mecha support, we can't storm the compartment by force. After all, this is a matter of hundreds of lives. I have just asked the headquarters for instructions, and they said they can agree to your conditions. But this matter involves the Federation, and it needs to be approved by higher-level officials. The whole process will take about an hour. If you believe me, please adjust the timer to one hour. I believe you have a device that can detonate the bomb at any time, and you are not afraid of me lying."
The criminal inside hesitated for a moment, and after a while, the hoarse voice sounded again, "Okay. I'll trust you this time. The bomb time can be adjusted to one hour. But if you lie to me, after one hour, everyone will die together."
Mo Lan took a deep breath, and the situation was stabilized. "Then let's talk about the terms now. First, let me introduce myself. I am the conductor of this train. My name is Mo Lan, an ordinary person without soul power. My father is Mo Wu, the governor of Tiandou City and a federal congressman. I believe that my identity means much more to you than ordinary people. So, I want to discuss something with you. Please release the elderly, women and children in the first five cars. In exchange, I will be your hostage."
"Conductor, no." The security captain was already anxious and came over to grab her.
Hei Lan shook her hand vigorously. She was just an ordinary person, but she managed to shake off the hand of the security captain, a two-ring spirit master. She turned her head and glared at him. In front of her powerful aura, the security captain did not dare to look at her.
The criminal inside was silent for a moment, "We can't agree to your conditions. I can't confirm your identity."
Mo Lan took a big step forward and appeared at the door of compartment five, exposing himself completely to the attack range of the opponent's weapons.
"You can use my image to search on the Soul Network. Add my name and my father's name, I believe it won't be difficult to confirm my identity."
As she spoke, she looked inside the compartment.
All the passengers in the car were gathered at the back. From where she was, she could only see the cluster bombs on the roof. She couldn't see the criminals at all. In the gaps between the people, there were soul-guided ray guns pointed at this side, which showed how cunning the criminals were. Perhaps influenced by her calmness, a voice came from the criminals after a while, "Okay, we have confirmed your identity. I can release the elderly, women and children. But don't play tricks on us. Let's play a credibility game. I will release ten hostages first, and then you come over. I will release the other elderly, women and children. If you don't keep your promise after I release ten people, then I will kill ten people first."
"Okay!" Mo Lan agreed immediately without any hesitation.
The criminals moved quickly. Ten people, young and old, and women quickly came over from that side. They were crying, and each of them bowed deeply to Mo Lan when they passed in front of her.
Mo Lan still had no expression on his face. He just put his hands behind his back and gestured to the security captain.
After the security captain took the hostages, he immediately conducted a full-body check on them to prevent bombs from being planted on them.
"We have shown our sincerity, it's your turn." A hoarse voice sounded.
Mo Lan reached into her bosom, took out her soul ray gun and threw it to the security captain behind her. She raised her hands to indicate that she had no weapons, and then walked into compartment 5. She did not walk fast, but very steadily.
Soon, she walked to the front of the crowd. A soul-guided ray gun reached out and pointed at her forehead.
"You know what? You are worthy of being the daughter of a congressman. You are courageous! But you have to understand one thing. We are gangsters and we never keep our word."
Mo Lan suddenly felt a little confused, as if she had seen the fire from the muzzle of the gun.
boom!
"Haha, I finally got my revenge on the federal government."
She didn't know if it was an illusion or something, but the moment the gangster fired the gun, she seemed to see a purple light.
"Are you the congressman's daughter?" Gu You glanced at Mo Lan.
She nodded in confusion. The series of events that just happened made her a little confused.
"Run quickly, there are criminals!" But the first person she thought of was Gu Youpao.
Gu You smiled at her and said, "Why are you running? Nothing will happen here as long as I am here."
Mo Lan was speechless. She was not stupid. He was able to save her at the moment when the gangster opened fire. That was as fast as a bullet! The young boy in front of him might be a powerful soul master.
"Who are you!" The gangster inside was a little confused for a moment, wondering how come a person jumped out after he fired a gun.
"Who am I?" Gu You smiled slightly.
"Your father."
