"I'm Henry, the on-site commander, and I want to talk to Huo Bang." Seeing that the on-site rescue failed and even took the life of a police officer, Assistant Director Henry lost his composure and dialed the emergency phone inside the tunnel.

.

"I'm just hot." Knowing that the police wanted to contact him, Hong Jipeng stepped forward and picked up the phone when he heard the phone ringing.

"I want to negotiate with you." After staying in Xiangjiang for more than ten years, Henry's Xiangjiang dialect is no worse than that of Li Ying and others.

"What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me? I have hundreds of hostages here, and what do you have, a woman?" Hong Jipeng chuckled into the microphone.

"What do you want?" Henry asked.

"Don't you have a bomb disposal expert over there? The one with police number 68439, let him come in and I'll talk to him," Hong Jipeng said.

"No, Zhang Zaishan is a bomb disposal expert, not a negotiator. If you want to negotiate, I will send a negotiator over." Henry is not an idiot if he can be an assistant director.

There are so many ghosts in Xiangjiang, and there are hundreds of people in the police force alone. To be able to become the largest members of the police force, in addition to having connections, Henry himself also has certain abilities.

"What's not working? Don't forget that I have hundreds of hostages here. If I don't let Zhang Zaishan in, I will kill one hostage every five minutes until you let him in. Do you want to try it?" Hong Jipeng

His tone was very cold.

"Don't think about storming. The trucks blocking both ends of the tunnel are filled with C4, which is almost a ton. The detonator is in my hand. As long as I press it, the bomb will explode. By then, the entire tunnel will be finished.

I wonder if you can bear it or if your superiors will make you a scapegoat."

"Sir, let me go." Hong Jipeng's voice was so loud that everyone present heard it. Finding that everyone was looking at him, Zhang Zaishan volunteered.

"I have been undercover with Hong Jipeng for a while, and I know this bastard very well. He is crazy and inhumane. He does not look down upon anyone except his brother. We cannot use ordinary criminals to infer that, so let me go in and take a look at him.

What are the conditions?"

"Be careful!"

Looking at Zhang Zaishan's firm gaze, Henry nodded, patted his shoulder and said, "Try to meet the robber's requirements as much as possible. If you come back alive, I will give you credit."

"clear!"

Zhang Zaishan nodded, turned around and walked out of the command center.

"Look, someone is walking towards the tunnel. It's a police officer or a superintendent. The police are going to negotiate with the robbers." There were not a hundred but eighty reporters at the scene.

Many reporters screamed when they saw Zhang Zaishan walking from the crowd toward the tunnel. Rows of telephoto lenses were all focused on Zhang Zaishan, watching him walk into the tunnel step by step with firm steps.

The first thing he saw were five or six armed gangsters. These people used cars as cover to confront the police. Zhang Zaishan had no expression on his face and turned a blind eye to these people. He walked around them and walked towards Hong Jipeng.

"Bang!"

Seeing Zhang Zaishan approaching, one of the gangsters, at Hong Jipeng's signal, kicked Zhang Zaishan to the ground, then stepped forward and quickly searched him to make sure there were no weapons on him.

"We finally meet. I have been talking about you every day these years!" Pulling Zhang Zaishan up from lying on the ground, Hong Jipeng said with a strange smile:

"Lao Zhang, are you talking about me every day and thinking about sending me to prison?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect to meet here again." Zhang Zaishan patted the dust on his body and looked at Hong Jipeng and said with a smile: "Why is the name change so popular? I want to make a clean break with the past."

"Haha, people like us run around here and there all day, so it's inevitable that we have to change our names. It's just a way of living. To be honest, I've even forgotten what my name is.

Lao Zhang, do you think the name Hot is not good-sounding? Do you want to change it to Robin Hood? This name will be easier to remember." Hong Jipeng laughed loudly.

"Tell me, what are your conditions? How can we release these hostages?" Zhang Zaishan was not cold to Hong Jipeng's cold joke and asked coldly.

"Lao Zhang, we haven't seen each other for seven or eight years. We finally meet again. We should catch up on old times and have a chat. We will talk about the hostage matter later. Do something for me first and let me see your sincerity."

"What happened?"

Hong Jipeng waved his hand, and two of his men escorted a middle-aged man in his fifties over. They took a look at the middle-aged man who was being escorted.

Hong Jipeng took out a pistol and handed it to Zhang Zaishan, pointed at the middle-aged man and said in a dark voice: "Kill him for me. Kill him and then we can talk about the hostage matter."

"No, no!"

When people sit at home, misfortune comes from the sky. A middle-aged man just traveled to Hong Kong with a tour group. In the end, he encountered robbers and was treated as a hostage to the police. Who can I explain to him?

Seeing the guns in the hands of Hong Jipeng and others, the middle-aged man was so frightened that he peed and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Why, you don't want to shoot, are you scared? If you don't shoot after I count to three, I will shoot."

Hong Jipeng knew that Zhang Zaishan would not shoot because he was a policeman and could not kill innocent citizens, even if he was pointed at a gun. The reason why he called Zhang Zaishan in for negotiations was because he was familiar with him.

The most taboo thing about negotiation is negotiating with strangers, because you don’t know what the other party’s cards are, and it’s easy to reveal your flaws during the conversation, just like those negotiators in the police force.

These people have received special training and will not be as funny as on TV. Even if they cannot convince the robbers, they can still understand some of the situation through the tone of voice and the expression on their faces, thereby taking the initiative in the negotiation.

Hong Jipeng did not want to deal with them unless absolutely necessary.

In comparison, Zhang Zaishan is different.

The bomb disposal officer is a good expert in the mountains. He claims that there is no bomb that cannot be defused. In Hong Kong, if not the first, he is ranked among the top five.

Negotiation is not good. This is not his specialty, let alone having been with him for several years and knowing his weaknesses. As soon as he entered, he was suppressed by himself and fell into a difficult choice.

If he were a negotiator, he would have found a way to break the situation long ago.

"one!"

"two!"

"three!"

"Da da da da da!"

Seeing that Zhang Zaishan didn't fire even after he counted three, Hong Jipeng smiled slightly, turned around and fired a bunch of bullets at the private car where the innocent hostages were locked. Blood splattered suddenly, and at least three or four hostages died in this moment.

"What's going on? There are gunshots inside!"

The sudden gunshots caused chaos outside.

Although Henry and others were located far away from the tunnel, everyone could still hear clearly in the silent night sky. It was definitely gunshots at that time.

Could it be that Zhang Zaishan was executed by the robbers?

Henry and others still understand somewhat about the grudge between Zhang Zaishan and Hong Jipeng. If Zhang Zaishan was not lucky, he was killed in the first two explosions.

Now Hong Jipeng called Zhang Zaishan inside, saying it was for negotiation, or maybe it was revenge. Anyway, to Hong Jipeng, hijacking the Red Cross Tunnel was an extremely serious crime, and he could be imprisoned for a hundred years.

Killing another policeman will not aggravate his crime because there is no death penalty in Hong Kong.

As long as the crime remains unchanged, whether to kill or not depends entirely on Hong Jipeng's mood.

Look at the tunnel in the distance!

Although the lights are still on, in everyone's mind, its entrance is like a devil with its mouth wide open, swallowing everyone who enters.

For a moment, everyone present fell into silence, not knowing what to do.

"Report, the director is here. He is in the command room. Let you pass." Fortunately, the arrival of the director interrupted the tranquility of the scene. When they heard that the director had arrived, everyone present seemed to have a backbone and they all ran towards the command center.

go.

"Henry, this is Lei Weidong, the commander of the West Kowloon General Administration. He is now in charge of the scene. You hand over the command to him." Seeing Henry coming in with Jiang Yaowei and others, Director Cao Dahua ordered.

"You are now back to the headquarters and on standby, ready to provide support at any time."

"clear!"

When Henry heard that someone was taking over the mess, he wanted it very much and immediately handed over the command to Lei Weidong.

"Director Lei, I'll leave this to you. Now five million people in Xiangjiang are watching you." After Henry and others left, Cao Dahua held Lei Weidong's hand and received,

"As long as things can end perfectly, you will definitely be promoted to another level, from Assistant Director to Senior Assistant Director.

"Director, don't worry." Lei Weidong nodded and began to issue orders:

"The snipers will come over immediately and block the entrances and exits of the tunnels, whether in Kowloon or Hong Kong Island. They will set up roadblocks and get a few more cars to block the intersection. Don't let the people inside rush out.

Also, if a jamming car comes over and cuts off all communications in the area, including phone lines and network lines, no calls can be made except for emergency calls.

Lei Weidong was a little surprised that in the movie, the police did not cut off the communications between Hong Jipeng and others, allowing Hong Jipeng to communicate with the outside world in the tunnel.

Don't say that the technology is not enough.

Mainland China can use jamming cars to interfere with communication signals during the college entrance examination. How could the Xiangjiang police with better equipment not think of this and let Hong Jipeng continue to receive information from the outside world, thus making the police very passive?

"clear!"

Under Lei Weidong's order, four or two high-power jamming vehicles drove over. In an instant, all communications in the entire area were interrupted, including the reporters who were taking pictures nearby, and all communication equipment in their hands was paralyzed.

No need for police to rush you.

After further negotiations with the police were ineffective, the reporters simply retreated hundreds of meters away to avoid interference and continue reporting. This time, Hong Jipeng could no longer understand the outside world through the news.

"What do you want?" Seeing Hong Jipeng killing people at every turn, Zhang Zaishan became angry and wanted to fight Hong Jipeng, but he didn't even have a gun. How could he be Hong Jipeng's opponent? He suppressed him directly.

"There are one thousand kilograms of C4 explosives standing in the whole place, and there are one thousand kilograms at the other end of the tunnel. My request is very simple." Hong Jipeng stopped his exaggerated movements and said slowly:

"When you get out, tell those bastards that I require the government to buy back the shares of the Western Harbor Crossing Corporation within 48 hours, otherwise I will kill the hostages and blow up this place. I don't have time to fight with you."

"I will bring you your request. You release the hostages first."

"Have you ever traded like this?" Hong Jipeng looked at Zhang Zaishan carefully and said with a smile, "You came in empty-handed, how can I trust you?"

"Can't I stay as a hostage?" Zhang Zaishan said loudly.

"You have no use for staying here. Are you a stunning beauty or a police commissioner or a governor? Look, so many hostages died because of your inaction."

Hong Jipeng knocked Zhang Zaishan to the ground with one punch and cursed, "If it weren't for you, my brother wouldn't have been in jail. Now go out and bring my brother back. Our brothers want to be reunited. You won't refuse this request."

Be satisfied."

"I can bring your brother over." Upon hearing this request, Zhang Zaishan was silent for a while, nodded and said,

"But you have to release a hundred hostages, women and children. These people are women and children who are unable to resist. They are troublesome if they stay here. I want to take them away."

"One for a hundred, you are really good at doing business, but since I let you in, I will definitely gain something for you." Patting Zhang Zaishan's shoulder, Hong Jipeng said,

"Well, you bring some other people. I am good friends with Miyagi Hiroshi of the Miyagi family.

I heard that many of his subordinates were detained by the West Kowloon Police Station. If you bring them here, I will suffer a small loss. One person will be exchanged for two, or one person will be exchanged.

The exchange time is before twelve in the evening. If I cannot see A Biao before then, then I will kill a hostage ten minutes later until A Biao comes."

"Construction of the Cross-Central Tunnel started in 1969 and was completed in 1972. The construction cost at that time was more than 300 million. Now if we want to see another tunnel at the same time, it will cost at least 10 billion.

This is not the most important thing.

The most critical thing is that if these gangsters really blow up the Red Cross Tunnel, Victoria Harbor will become very turbid, and the generated sand and dust will take six months to completely settle on the seabed.

This also requires that there are no ships sailing in Victoria Harbor during the period, otherwise it will take longer.

In short, if the Cross-Central Tunnel is really blown up, it may affect the economy of Hong Kong in the next few years, causing direct and indirect losses of hundreds of billions."

"Hundreds of billions, which means that the robbers cannot blow up the tunnel no matter what. The first priority is to protect the tunnel." Lei Weidong glanced at Cao Dahua, shrugged and said.

"Yes!" Cao Dahua nodded, agreeing with Lei Weidong's judgment.

"Director, Sir Lei, and Commander Zhang are back."

"Quick, let him come here." When he heard that Zhang Zaishan had returned safely, Cao Dahua couldn't help but stand up.

Soon, Zhang Zaishan entered the command center, followed by Jiang Yaowei and others.

"Officer Zhang, your head is bleeding. Do you want to take a rest?" Seeing blood on Zhang Zaishan's forehead, Cao Dahua quickly asked the doctor to come over.

"Director, I'm fine."

Seeing that the on-site commander changed from assistant director to director, Zhang Zaishan knew that the matter was serious, and he also knew that the higher-ups were taking this matter very seriously, and even the police commissioner came.

Zhang Zaishan saluted with a military salute, stood and said, "Hong Jipeng has very high demands. In addition to asking us to release Hong Jibiao, Hong Jipeng's younger brother, who is imprisoned in Stanley.

We are required to buy back the Western Harbor Crossing shares within another 48 hours!"

"How come this is the condition for buying back the shares of the Western Harbor Crossing?"
Chapter completed!
