The driver of the tanker quickly got out of the car and used all his energy to escape, because he could feel the oil starting to leak from behind.
boom--
After a big explosion, the two cars quickly burst into flames.
This time, it was not just Jack who let out a heart-rending cry, but others also cursed angrily.
"Hell, he's the only clue we have on short notice!"
"What should we do now?!"
"Shit! I must send those two scum to St. Elizabeth's Mental Hospital and let them live there in peace for the rest of their lives!"
Banning quickly calmed down at this time: "We have to reset the target. It is unrealistic to look for other clues now. According to the existing intelligence, he still has about sixteen minutes to reach his destination. You have set up a maximum search Boundary?”
Driscoll immediately shouted: "Chloe!"
"I'm already looking at various construction facilities within a thirty-kilometer radius."
The FBI also gave some comfort: "The helicopters we sent out are searching this area!"
But Jack interjected: "No, it takes too long. Use satellites to scan the surface temperature to screen out the server rooms of those people. Such a large live broadcast must require a lot of servers, and the heat emitted is absolutely abnormal!"
"it's useless."
"Why?"
"There are multiple power transmission concentrators in that area, and satellites can't tell the difference between them and the servers."
Banning suddenly said: "Does anyone have the specific time when the surface temperature data in this area was last updated?"
"A week ago, what happened?" Someone on Lei's side reported it a few seconds later.
Jack also understood Banning's thinking and said directly: "Those transmitters have existed in this area for a long time. When you did the scanning, you divided the grids one by one and placed them in the established grid models. The scan results Once we come out and remove the effects of these parameters, we can identify any neutron exciters that have recently appeared!"
"Quick, quick, quick! Everyone, act quickly!"
"Jack, the thermal scan is in progress!"
"hurry up!"
The satellite has started scanning, and now everyone has some time to breathe. After today, the lifespan of the two satellites in the United States is expected to be greatly reduced, because in order to track and monitor Khalil, two satellites were forced to Change track.
But this is not what Driscoe has to worry about now, because she has just received notice that her daughter, who is also a schizophrenic patient, has been taken to the TU headquarters. Previously, her daughter was alone at home and was stimulated by some normal behaviors of her neighbors. I did some violent things, but luckily there were no bad consequences.
So Driscoe sent someone to take her daughter directly to CU, because it was unrealistic for her to go home with her daughter now, so she explained to Curtis and walked to the medical room.
And Curtis also took advantage of this leisure to come to the workstation of the black girl who used him to enter CTU through the back door - Marianne.
"Marian, why do you always talk to Egg every time I pay attention to you?"
"I'm just trying to understand the rules here, Curtis."
Curtis turned her office chair around so that Marianne faced him, and said with a serious face: "Today is not a good day to make achievements!
The only thing we have to consider is how to prevent Secretary Heller from being publicly executed by the enemy.
So, stop disturbing others, okay? "
"Don't do this, Curtis, give me your trust..."
Curtis was already impatient when he heard this. He knew exactly what kind of character the other party had. If she was in an ordinary workplace environment, Marianne could still thrive. She was the kind of person who wanted to go up. Climb by any means necessary, but in a place like TU, where everything must be efficient, it really sucks.
So Curtis interrupted her directly, "Save it! I know you and what you think. Stop annoying others and let us get through today smoothly!"
Finally, she gave Marianne a warning look and then opened the door. Marianne's expression became even more helpless. She was very anxious after coming to CTU today and it didn't go well at all.
After Curtis left, he asked relevant personnel about the situation of a special prisoner in the interrogation room.
"Hasn't Richard revealed what he's hiding?"
After his father and sister were kidnapped, Richard was brought back by TU staff who later went to the scene to learn about the situation. However, when the confession was being taken, the child resisted and refused to cooperate. In the end, he was tortured by TU staff. It was discovered that he was hiding something, so Richard was transferred directly to the interrogation monitoring room.
"No sir, he has never admitted that he concealed something, but based on the data from the polygraph instrument, we can determine that he must have concealed something."
Curtis rubbed his eyebrows. To be honest, he looked down on this brainless second-hand man very much. According to the available information, Richard was planning to attend a rally against his father today and was preparing to speak publicly as a representative. .
But when he threatened the other party to act like he was going to torture him to extract a confession, the kid finally panicked. His first words were: "You can't do this to me. My dad is the Secretary of Defense of the United States!"
At this time, everyone in CTU felt dumbfounded, but they couldn't really torture him.
After all, Heller and Audrey haven't jumped into the street yet. If they did, there would be no taboos. But now they have to worry about Heller, the Minister of Defense. It has to be said that the child moved his father out in panic. It really has some effect.
At this moment, Driscoe also finished talking to her daughter and walked out of the infirmary to the hall with a dull look on her face. However, she quickly cleared up her expression and began to ask about Curtis' progress.
"How's the satellite scan going?"
"It will take another seven minutes."
"ASAP."
. . .
During the period of satellite temperature scanning, everyone seemed to have taken a short rest, including Omar.
He told Navi directly about Khalil's death.
"Dead? What happened?!"
"He was targeted when he came to my place, so he sacrificed himself without hesitation."
After Navigation sighed, he regained his composure and asked, "What about the instrument?"
"Dama and I will get the equipment as soon as possible. It's almost finished."
"I can come over right away if necessary. My work was completed a month ago. The impact on the progress caused by Kalil's vacancy can be replaced by me."
"No, no, no, the risk is too great."
"Are you and Dar sure you can handle the instrument? If there is a problem with the instrument, it will affect the overall situation of our plan. You also know that the trial operation is just the beginning."
"I know, my friend, that the instrument will be ready and delivered to Malvern in five minutes.
Don't worry, everything will go as we planned. "
After saying that, Omar hung up the phone, turned to an American who was doing something with an open box and asked: "Has the final inspection of the package been completed? Is there really no damage at all, Powell?"
"Intact."
"I thought there would be some damage from the train impact."
"This box is very strong and there are no problems at all."
"Good, you can start."
"I set off, remember to kill that woman, because he saw my face, we have met before, she just didn't remember who I was for the time being!"
"Don't worry, after Heller dies, she will be useless."
. . .
On Air Force One, Benjamin looked at Robert, the head of the Black Palace, who suddenly entered his room and asked strangely: "Robert, what's wrong?"
"The joint rescue team of Heller has determined that it will find the place where Heller is being held in two minutes, but there is a problem."
"Approximately where?"
"It's in the St. Lake Valley, but there's a big problem. Even if the relevant rescue personnel arrive, Heller is likely to be killed during the rescue process."
Benjamin smacked his lips and could only say helplessly: "We have no choice but to pray that you are wrong."
"No, actually we have another choice. Heller's death is a tragedy, but if he is publicly executed and dies on federal land, it may be even worse. It will be an insult to the great United States. , this will be the worst day in our history!"
The way Benjamin looked at Robert changed as he listened, "I know all this, but what exactly do you mean? Unless you have some effective method, our conversation will have no substantive meaning."
"We can take a preemptive strike and dispatch fighter planes now. Once the specific location is determined, we can directly conduct an air strike to eliminate all enemies!"
"Including Heller and his daughter?!" Benjamin frowned and said in disgust.
This kind of behavior has nothing to do with personal morality. Politicians want to use all the resources in their hands to make the situation beneficial to themselves, so don't expect everyone to have high moral integrity.
But this proposal completely abandons Heller, which is serious in nature.
He was ready to abandon Heller before he even started taking action. What would other people in the circle think if they knew it? Besides, he was the one who gave the final order, which meant that everyone would only think that this decision was made by him, the commander-in-chief. And that's all it took for Robert to leave?
"James Heller is a good friend of ours. He has served the Union loyally, and you want me to order his death just to save my face?"
“It’s not your face, Asher, it’s the whole country’s, and he’s a dead ringer.
If we don't handle this situation more forcefully, we will incur more attacks!
If I had to say something, sir, after working with Heller for so many years, he would have chosen the same way in this situation. "
Benjamin said sarcastically: "The public will never agree!"
"No, the public will only know that Secretary Heller died during the rescue process. At least it is much better than carrying out the death penalty in front of the whole world."
Benjamin looked at the acquaintance in front of him who felt very strange to him. He knew that if he didn't give an answer now, the other party might embarrass him at the regular meeting, so he decided to take a step back and said directly: "I agree to let Ma Run's fighter go now." The formation moves out.
However, without my order, no matter who it is, whether it is the pilot who fires spontaneously or an official who gives the order to fire without authorization, they will be treated as deliberately trying to kill Defense Secretary Heller! "
Robert's eyes changed after hearing this, and he also felt that Benjamin, who he had been spending day and night with, was so strange.
