Staying at the police station was really boring, so Irving decided to go to the hospital to see that guy McClain. The guy was shot yesterday, but according to Father George, it wasn't serious, just a skin injury. I just happened to go see him today.
He did what he thought of. He went to the parking lot to pick up the car and went straight to the hospital. The car stopped in the hospital parking lot. Owen got out of the car holding a bouquet of flowers, but unexpectedly met Bob at the entrance of the hospital.
He and Bob had met last night, and he was very grateful to Owen, the ace sniper, who saved his life. However, the two of them had not even exchanged a few words before being dragged to the CTU by Jack Bauer.
"Hi Bob, are you here to...?"
"Hey Steve, I'm here to see the SWAT brothers. How many of them are injured? How about you?"
"I'm here to see McClain."
"Oh, that's right."
"Bob, do you have time tonight? I'd like to treat you to a drink at the Wildcat Bar, which is not far from the police station."
"Uh... I'm sorry, Steve, I have to go back in the afternoon. I have an urgent mission in the army... I came here just to say goodbye to them. I'm very sorry..."
"Oh, it's nothing. The army is just like that. I can understand it. Then next time you come to Los Angeles, be sure to contact me and I'll buy you a drink."
"Of course, I'm looking forward to it."
With a ding, the floor was reached, and the two of them walked out of the elevator one after another. Bob said, "Which side are you on? Oh, I'm here, so I'll go first. Nice to meet you."
"Okay, bye."
The two parted ways.
…
In the ward, McClain was lying on the bed wearing a hospital gown, and Holly was peeling an apple for him. As soon as Owen's face appeared in the window, McClain shouted exaggeratedly: "Hey man, you're finally here. Oh my god, how are you?"
It looks so miserable. It seems that you were beaten while I was away, and you actually brought flowers. I'm not a girl. Forget it, my dear, go ahead and put the flowers."
Owen smiled and looked at McClane lying on the hospital bed. This guy was still so venomous even though he was injured. To put it bluntly, he was indeed much worse off than McClane right now.
In the last period, he was surrounded by a few robbers and beaten, and his face was beaten into a pig's head. The swelling has not completely subsided yet, but McClain was not much better. He was kicked by a sniper in the face.
There is still a big footprint now.
Owen handed the flowers to Holly and said with a smile: "You are overthinking, buddy, these flowers are for Ms. Holly, not for you.
In addition, although I look miserable, they are all superficial injuries and will be fine in a few days. Unlike you, I don’t know how long I will have to lie in bed, but I feel relieved to see that you are not dead yet, haha...
…”
McClain didn't show any weakness, and said gloatingly: "Steve, I heard that you are under investigation? Hahaha, those CTU SBs would actually suspect you. Is this how they waste taxpayers' money?"
The CTU acted very quickly. It seems that they have already sent people to investigate from McClain, but Owen didn't care: "You don't sound like a policeman, but more like a lawyer."
"Hahaha, if you listen to those bastards too much, you will inevitably be affected. But you bastard made me owe you one more time in the end."
"I owe you. Maybe you can pay me back if you have a chance in the future..."
"Hahaha……"
Looking at McClane jumping around, he doesn't look like he's been shot at all. Irving likes this guy very much. Although the two have not known each other for a long time, less than 24 hours to be precise, they have experienced life and death together, and they feel like they have known each other.
Like old friends for many years.
at the same time
In the three-story building of CTU in Los Angeles, Nina, who had not slept all night, knocked on the office door, then opened the door and walked into Jack Bauer's office.
"Jack, are you looking for me?"
"Yes, how's the case going?"
"The details of the operation have been submitted to the director."
Jack Bauer nodded, rubbed his sore eyebrows, he only slept for two hours last night, and then asked: "Where's Steve Irwin?"
"No other issues have been found yet. The testimonies of McClain and other hostages are very favorable to him. We are still investigating other issues."
"Stop the investigation."
Nina didn't expect Jack Bauer to say that. He and Jack Bauer were not only superiors and subordinates, but also lovers. She immediately understood what Jack was thinking.
"You think highly of this Steve Irwin?"
"Yes, come and see these videos..."
Jack Bauer pushed the laptop in front of him towards Nina. What was playing on the laptop was the footage of Owen dealing with the robbers in the building captured by the Zhongchen Building monitor. There were scenes of Owen parkour and installations.
As for booby traps, these were sorted out by the technical team overnight.
"This man has good skills. The most important thing is that his mind is very clear and he has very accurate predictions even in dangerous situations. I want to recruit him into the action team. Tony's side has never been able to have enough manpower."
"I understand and I will stop investigating."
"Well, in addition, let's put some information out there. It's best for the people in the action team not to be too famous. This will be good for their future actions."
"Understood. I will arrange for the media to release Follett's information. I believe it can divert some attention."
…
As soon as Owen came out of the ward, he received a call from Father George.
"Dad, what's the matter?"
"Steve, where are you?"
"I'm in the hospital and came to see McClain..."
"Well, then come to the director's office when you have time. Cavell wants to talk to you about something..."
"Okay dad, I'll go over now..."
Irving hung up the phone and was about to go to the parking lot to pick up the car when he saw a group of reporters carrying long guns and short guns walking out of the elevator.
As soon as the reporters got out of the elevator, they were still looking at the guidance signs, but suddenly they saw Owen at the door of the ward. They were stunned for a moment, and then they rushed over happily, startling Owen.
Owen didn't understand what was going on at first. It seemed that these people were coming for him, but he immediately figured out the key and ran away from the fire escape. He didn't want to be famous, let alone reporters.
They dug out all the dirty things in the past twenty years.
As for what McClane will do after he runs away, hey, then we can only pray for that guy to seek his own blessings.
He ran to the fire escape a lot last night, but he didn't expect that he would still have to run today. It seems that he has a connection with the fire escape.
Owen laughed at himself. As soon as he came out of the fire escape on the first floor, he found another group of reporters rushing in from the front door. They must have just found out the address and heard the news. Owen decisively left through the back door and went to the parking lot to pick up the car.
, and went straight to the police station.
When the car drove to the police station, Owen did not go in immediately. Thinking of the experience in the hospital just now, he very smartly walked around the door of the police station.
Sure enough, we saw a few reporters standing guard at the main entrance of the police station. They probably didn't find anyone else or the police station didn't allow them to enter for interviews at all, so they stayed there.
Owen repeated his old trick and quietly came to the back door. Fortunately, no one was guarding the back door. Owen stopped the car and quickly entered the building.
