weekend.
Qi Ming failed to buy a seat on the suspended train to the imperial capital in advance. He didn't understand why it was so difficult to get a train ticket in the apocalyptic wasteland.
In the end, I relied on Junwu's network to get a seatless ticket. After boarding the train, I went to the No. 11 Restaurant Car to buy some food and pass the time out of boredom.
"Train conductor! I haven't had time to congratulate you on your happy wedding!"
Several flight attendants surrounded a middle-aged man in the middle. Only in a place like the dining car where there are not many passengers would they dare to be so bold.
"I heard that my sister-in-law is as beautiful as a fairy, and she is also a tutor at Qingbei Wuhan University! The train conductor is so lucky!"
"Yes, yes, train conductor, we didn't even know you got married quietly. Shouldn't you give us wedding candies?"
"The train conductor has only had three days of rest and continues to work. Will my sister-in-law be happy?"
The conductor seemed to have a good rapport with everyone, and the crew were not afraid to joke with him.
The train conductor also took the initiative to take out his old-fashioned mobile phone, which still had a brick-like full screen. After pressing the fingerprint, the screen lit up. The background picture was an intellectual and elegant beautiful woman.
"Train conductor! You're already married and you still use this antique. What kind of era is it now? If you don't need spiritual equipment, at least it's a projection equipment!"
"What the hell, you kid, what do you know? All the conductor's savings were used to coax his wife!"
Everyone laughed, and the train conductor also laughed and scolded them and pushed them away. After the short lunch break, we returned to our respective posts.
Is this the life of ordinary people?
Qi Ming sat at the small table by the window, drinking a glass of carbonated drink, watching these people in front of him go to work, get off work, and be lazy at work. It was really difficult to understand their happiness.
"Attention all crew members! There are gangsters in Car No. 4 hijacking the train. All safety officers are requested to gather in Car No. 4! Service staff should calm down the emotions of other passengers and don't let panic spread!"
An urgent voice came from the conductor's headset next to him. Qiming frowned slightly as he looked at the conductor's shocked expression.
With his current energy reserve, no matter how small the sound is, he will not miss it. But, carjacking?
I seem to have heard of the incident of hijacking a suspended train before, which eventually led to the train exploding, killing and injuring hundreds of people, resulting in a tragedy that shocked the entire Kyushu security community.
It was even grabbed by several other major security circles. It was full of underworld filters, quoted out of context, and released many tragic scenes after the explosion to criticize the Kyushu coalition government for its disregard for human rights.
As for the real culprit of the disaster, no one pays attention at all.
Qiming doesn't want to save the world.
But he must at least save himself.
Seeing the conductor forcing himself to calm down and walking to the car in front, Qi Ming pretended to go to the toilet and followed quietly.
The train conductor’s voice came through the headset again: “All safety officers, please note that the emergency equipment at all car connections has been unlocked.
Please carry weapons to Car No. 4 and do not alert other passengers to avoid causing commotion. "
This guy sounds like he's quite calm in the face of danger. After the apocalypse, not even an ordinary person can be the conductor of an ordinary suspended train.
The conductor who just passed by turned out to be a safety officer and a first-level Yuan warrior.
Although it is powerful enough among ordinary people, no one knows the role of the gangster who will hijack the entire suspended train.
The conductor forced himself to calm down and walked forward, not noticing Qi Ming following a few steps behind him.
"Conductor, what's going on?"
A large number of safety personnel gathered in Car No. 5 and did not dare to move forward. The fifth carriage has been emptied and all passengers have been transferred to the sixth carriage, leaving only the flight attendants.
On the other side of Car No. 3, the door has been locked by the gangsters, and the security officer on the other side cannot contact him at all.
"There are eight gangsters who have been identified so far, and they carry individual laser weapons. Not only that, they also carry an uncertain number of time explosives. Regardless of whether they will detonate the entire train, at least the first four carriages will be decoupled. There is no problem. "
Almost everyone took a breath.
"Laser weapons! How did they bring them to the train?"
"We can't control so much now! Even if we need to hold people accountable, that will only happen after the problem is solved.
There is no doubt that the gangster knew that the energy base station of the entire levitating train was under the fourth carriage. This train did not stop in the middle and drove all the way to the imperial capital at a speed of up to 500 kilometers per hour.
Once an explosion occurs, it will trigger a chain reaction with disastrous consequences. "
"Where's the communication system?"
"The gangsters carried a communication jamming device, and we are temporarily unable to contact the suspended train command center. The camera in the fourth carriage is also blocked, and we can't see what's going on inside now."
Several people spoke clearly about the current situation and told everyone that the problem was serious.
“The safest way now is to communicate with the gangsters first, stabilize their emotions, reduce the speed of the train, and then disconnect all the carriages after the fifth carriage.
If you don't slow down, the car behind you will only be able to overturn on the spot even if it is decoupled. "
The situation was clear and the conductor made a prompt decision.
"I'll go negotiate with them. You should monitor the status of the train at all times and contact the outside world as soon as possible."
"Conductor! You..." They had no idea what was going on inside the fourth carriage, and no one knew the danger of going deep into the tiger's den at this time.
"No need to talk nonsense, execute the order."
Everyone is left in the fifth car by him. Once the speed drops, he will disconnect from the rear car as soon as possible.
But he himself will live and die with the crew and passengers in the four cars in front.
Because he is the train conductor.
He took out his phone again and lit it up. He glanced at the woman with picturesque features on the screen. The train conductor's eyes grew hot, but he picked up the phone again.
"Open the door! I am the conductor of this train. If you have any requests, you can ask me."
The conductor took a deep breath, facing the bright muzzle of the laser gun on the opposite side, and walked towards the connection between the carriages.
The gangster in the fourth carriage seemed to have made some move. Panic screams rang out inside, but they were suppressed forcibly.
The train conductor forced himself to remain calm:
"Don't be impulsive. Everything can be discussed! You probably didn't hijack the train just to die. I will try my best to meet your demands and not harm the hostages!"
A gangster who seemed to be the leader stood in front: "No need to talk nonsense! Our demands are simple! We do not agree to open a second polar city in the Yanshan Mountains!
As long as the coalition government promises not to fight at our doorstep and gives us the same stable life as usual, we will naturally let him go!
Otherwise, the fish will die and the net will fall apart! You know better than me how many passengers there are in the first four carriages! Once the energy base station under the fourth carriage explodes, a hundred miles radius will be razed to the ground! "
Some people died, but not completely...
