Half an hour later, the coast guard ship docked, and Irving, wrapped in a blanket, was handed over to the local police by the coast guard. At this moment, Irving was sitting next to the trunk of the ambulance, and Irving was doing a preliminary check on him.
"There is no problem for now. We will do a comprehensive examination on you when you get to the hospital..."
After checking the heartbeat and blood pressure, the doctor who examined Owen used a stethoscope to listen to other parts of Owen's body, and then said.
"Oh, that's great."
John McClain, who had been waiting next to him after they arrived, came up and gave Owen a bear hug.
"Man, you started such a big fight as soon as you came to New York. This is much more powerful than when we were in Los Angeles..."
Owen rolled his eyes: "John, I don't want to be trapped in a tunnel, always worrying whether I will be buried alive, drowned, crushed to death, or poisoned and smoked to death..."
"Hahaha, man, I was scared when I saw you were not among the people coming out of the lounge..."
"Uh, it's you. Are you the guy behind the monitor who prompted us that there is an exit from the No. 3 spare parts warehouse?"
Owen reacted suddenly, pointed at McClain in disbelief and asked.
"Haha, of course, I am your savior, now you owe me again..."
"Okay, I owe you once, but I hope I don't have to pay you back."
Hearing McClane say that he owed him one more time, Owen also laughed. This is a joke between the two. When they were in the Zhongchen Building, the two encountered crises many times and rescued each other. This joke is considered that kind of situation.
The only thing the next two people have is relaxation.
The doctor found a dry hospital gown for Owen. Owen took off his wet clothes and immediately felt much more relaxed. With the addition of a blanket, Owen gradually warmed up.
He and MacLean hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally they had a lot to talk about. The two talked about the Zhongchen Building, the movie "Die Hard", and the bombing at the premiere.
After chatting with her, it became clear that McClane was not having a good time during this period. Although he saved his wife with all his strength during the Zhongchen Building, life-saving and feelings are two different things.
The marriage of the two eventually came to an end, but they were reunited and separated. Their son and daughter followed his wife to Los Angeles, and he stayed in New York alone.
While the two were talking, several vehicles drove up from a distance, including off-road vehicles and ambulances. Owen seemed familiar with the off-road vehicles.
The car stopped and a few people got out of the off-road vehicle. Owen actually saw Beth and Mike Chen inside. Like him, they were all covered in thick blankets.
Beth ran over as soon as she saw him, "Owen~~~"
Owen hurriedly followed her. He had just learned from McClain that Beth and the others had been rescued, and he had finally let go of the last stone in his heart.
To be honest, he didn't know what was at the end of the stairs at that time, but there was only one way, so he had to give it a try. Fortunately, they were saved in the end.
In fact, their rescue experience was not simple. The passage at the end of the stairs originally led to the ground, but due to previous reconstructions, the passage was blocked.
The rescue team only discovered it after they rushed there. After that, they referred to the map of the tunnel, found the point closest to the passage and blew up an entrance, and then rescued Beth and her group.
Beth was still brooding over her departure, but she needed Owen to comfort her. Mike Chen stood awkwardly aside, and Beth was angry with him because he knocked her unconscious.
Originally, nothing would happen to him after he was rescued. As a Chinese who values his commitment, he had completed Owen's entrustment. Originally, he thought that Owen would definitely be dead in that situation, but he didn't expect that he accidentally heard the coast guard
It was about saving Owen, so I rushed over.
"Hi Chen, thank you~~~"
Owen was sincerely grateful. He didn't blame them for leaving him. In that case, leaving was the most correct thing to do. Being emotional was of no use.
"It's so good to see you're okay..."
The two of them held their arms tightly together.
At this time, one of the people who came with them came forward and said: "Director Steve Irwin, I am Keir Harvey from the New York CTU Operations Division. Your Director Almeida asked me to find him.
You, Director Jack Bauer, also requested to notify him as soon as possible after finding you. I think you'd better call them back now..."
"Oh, I forgot about this..."
Owen really forgot. He has not been idle since he was rescued.
Keir handed over a mobile phone at the right time: "I think you need this..."
Irving thanked Kier. He really needed this. His phone had been damaged a long time ago.
Irving took two steps away, first called Jack Bauer, briefly explained his situation, and then called Tony.
"Wait a moment, I'll turn on the amplifier."
Tony said on the other end, and after a few seconds, everyone's voices came from the phone.
"Thank God, it seems God still favors you Owen..."
"Owen, your life is so good..."
"I heard that you escaped with a gas blast in the end. Man, how does it feel to be blasted..."
The chattering voices of colleagues came over the phone. Chloe, Jimmy, Aisha, Carter... everyone sent their own greetings. Although their tone was relaxed, they could not hide the deep concern inside.
.
Owen chatted with everyone for a while before turning back to Tony. He did not forget the purpose of coming to New York, and then asked: "Tony, have you figured out the matter of Beth's assassination?"
Tony was on the other end: "I figured it out, the man behind the scenes is the CEO of Asercon, named Hughes Morton. He is not a shareholder, just a professional manager.
Hughes Morton colluded with Jabbar Birney and Greene Stone, and used the biological company's channels to illegally transport prohibited items abroad behind the backs of the other two shareholders.
The assassination of those two people was just a means of self-protection after the incident was exposed. As for why he assassinated your friend Beth, he said he wanted to divert our attention. This matter has nothing to do with your friend. She was purely affected..."
Owen curled his lips, saying that Beth was really unlucky. She was a billionaire after all, but she was hunted down because of this lame excuse.
"But where did he find those professional killers? He couldn't have such channels himself?"
Owen asked another question.
"He confessed that he issued the reward through an organization called 'Continental Hotel'. Continental Hotel is an organization similar to a killer agency. We have known about this organization for a long time, and the police and FBI have been pursuing it.
As for its whereabouts, there are no substantial clues yet.”
Owen nodded. He also knew about this organization. It was indeed very mysterious, the kind that he had only heard of but never seen. Many rich people would use this to do dirty work. It was said to be very safe.
All operations are completed online. The employer only needs to call the Continental Hotel with his demands and remuneration, and the rest of the process is completely black box to the employer.
The employer has no idea what kind of killer the Continental Hotel is looking for to complete the deal. However, this also ensures the employer's safety to the greatest extent. As long as the Continental Hotel does not collapse, no one will know that the employer caused the target's death.
