Hearing the words of the female guest, Blossom frowned and Matthews turned pale. The two of them hurriedly apologized a few times and squeezed into the center of the crowd little by little.
There was a TV in the center of the crowd. It was originally playing the scene of Veranith's previous press conference, but now for some reason it was replaced by a live broadcast of breaking news from New York News.
On the TV, Lynette, who had long burgundy hair, was holding a microphone and was introducing the audience to the story of the case and the current scene of the cabin in the woods with a serious face.
Seeing Luo An standing in the corner of the villa in the camera, holding a pistol and negotiating with the murderer, Blossom's face turned black. He turned to Matthews and asked in a low voice:
"Didn't you send someone to follow Luo An? How did he find the murderer so quickly? Also, what happened to this reporter?"
Matthews' eyelids were twitching and his mouth was dry. He didn't know how to answer Broson's question. He opened his mouth for a while before replying in a low voice:
"I'm going to make a call now!"
"Hmph, go quickly!"
Seeing the various complicated looks from the people around him, Broson had a straight face and couldn't say anything. He waved his hand to signal Matthews to leave quickly.
Matthews squeezed out of the crowd with a cold sweat on his head, walked to the corner of the room and immediately called his subordinate Jock to ask what was going on. As a result, he learned that Jock had not arrived at the villa yet, and it would take more than ten minutes at the fastest. .
Moreover, faced with Matthews's shouting question, Jock, who was driving, looked confused: "Sir, didn't you ask me to inform reporters?"
Matthews: "...FU-K!"
——
At the door of the villa, Darren looked at the female reporter who was chatting in front of the camera. Her face was ashen and she was using her mobile phone to contact people everywhere. He hoped that someone in his circle of friends knew the senior executives of New York News and asked them to quickly notify the female reporter to stop the live broadcast.
He didn't want the fact that his wife was kidnapped to make a big fuss in the city. Who knows what those people would say about what happened when Sabine was kidnapped afterwards.
At the same time, Lacey also called August.
"What did you say?"
Auguston raised his eyebrows when he heard that there was a reporter broadcasting live at the crime scene. Veranis on the side heard the news and immediately picked up the remote control and switched the TV high in front of the conference room to the New York News Channel. .
On the TV, Luo An's handsome profile looked extremely clear.
"Shit!"
Thinking that the murderer would probably be angered by the reporter and kill the hostage, Augustus' lips trembled in anxiety, and he immediately ordered Lacey to interrupt the live broadcast of the TV station, but Veranith did not agree and raised her hand to stop Augustus.
"?"
Turning his head to look at Verenice, Augustus looked puzzled.
"Interrupting reporters' live broadcasts at this time will have a very negative impact on the image of our FBI."
August's eyes suddenly widened. If Luo An failed this mission and failed to rescue the hostages, then Luo An's life would be over!
Moreover, it would take more than thirty minutes for SWAT to reach the forest cabin. Who knows if Luo An could hold off the murderer for thirty minutes.
Mona, who was sitting next to her, also thought of this and hurriedly stood up to speak.
"Trust your men, Augustus."
Seeing the figure standing in the corner on the TV, holding a Glock 18, wearing FBI standard equipment, Luo An had to wear it to look like a high-end model, Veranith's heart skipped a beat, and after she reacted, her face returned to normal, and she said in a deep voice :
"Pay attention, does Luo An look nervous now?"
August and Mona turned their attention to the TV and found that Luo An in the camera was not only not nervous, but was even laughing and chatting with the murderer.
Although the distance was too far, it was difficult to hear what they were talking about.
August: "..."
Mona: "..."
"Believe in Roan Greenwood"
Veranith changed her legs, stared at Luo An on the TV, and said deeply:
"He must have a way to deal with the murderer and rescue the hostages."
August took a deep breath, signaled Lacey to keep an eye on Darren and not make any other move, then hung up the phone, sat in the chair and stared at the TV.
Recalling Luo An's behavior when she arrested the murderer last time, Mona hesitated for a moment and gritted her teeth before sitting back in the chair. Like everyone else, she watched Luo An on the TV closely. She chose to believe Luo An.
But thinking about the consequences of a failed mission... Mona pondered for a long time, and finally took out her mobile phone and found a number that made her look disgusted.
——
Outside the wooden villa, in the corner of the first floor.
Luo An was holding a Glock 18 and was chatting with the murderer Fraser in the bedroom on the second floor.
He had already asked for the murderer's name.
Besides, it wasn't that Luo An didn't want to change directions and walk up to the second floor to find a way to arrest Frazier.
Instead, Fraser, who was hiding in the bedroom on the second floor, said that if he heard Roan's voice and stopped moving, he would immediately light up the gasoline and everyone would go to hell together.
"Okay, Frasier, I'm not moving."
While Luo An was looking around, looking for a location where he could enter the second floor of the villa from the outside, he was chatting with Fraser:
"But can you let me hear Sabine's voice? I need to make sure she's safe!"
In his previous life, the old killer once taught Luo An how to negotiate with the other party when he was trapped after a mission failed.
Although Luo An's identity is slightly different now than in his previous life, and he has changed from a trapped camp to a camp that traps others, the general process of negotiation is still the same.
It's all a little bit of discussion, a little bit of negotiation, and in the end, when others are not paying attention, you find an opportunity to kill the other party.
"Sabina is safe now!"
Fraser's voice was no longer as excited as before, and he calmed down slightly. After hearing Roan's words, he shouted in the bedroom:
"As long as you meet my requirements, I will never hurt her!"
"Fraser, I can't just listen to you when it comes to Sabine's safety."
Luo An shook his head, saying that such words were unbelievable:
"I have no other request. I just hope you can remove the tape on Sabina's mouth and let her say it's safe, okay?"
After a few seconds of pause, Luo An explained:
"Fraser, believe me, Sabine's safety is the basic requirement for us to continue talking! You don't want us to just break into the bedroom without talking."
After hearing Luo An's words, the bedroom on the second floor of the villa was silent for a few seconds before Fraser agreed:
"OK! I agree with you, but I will only let Sabine talk and not let her leave me, you know?"
"No problem! Just let me hear Sabine's voice!"
These were minor issues, and Roan agreed to Frazier's request.
laugh--
There was a sound of the tape being peeled off, and a few seconds later, a trembling female voice came from the bedroom on the second floor of the villa:
"Mr. Agent, I am Sabina. I am safe now."
"OK, Sabina."
Hearing Sabina's voice, Luo An licked his lips and shouted:
"Please take a deep breath now and try to calm down your emotions! I have a good conversation with Mr. Fraser now, and we have reached a consensus that we don't want you to get hurt, okay?"
"No problem, Mr. Agent."
After hearing Luo An's words, Sabina's voice was much calmer when she replied for the second time.
"Good."
Luo An breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the hostages were still safe. But when he turned around and saw that there was no place around him for him to jump to the second floor, he frowned immediately.
