It's 1:29 p.m. US time.
The joint rescue team sent people to take a look at the address given by Jack, and everyone made another major discovery.
This address was a store in a certain neighborhood in Los Angeles. The agents who came here found it empty, but after continuing their search, they discovered a well-hidden basement.
There are several whiteboards and a bunch of chairs on the ground floor. The whiteboards are covered with dense photos, cut-out newspapers and maps. There are also various marks in some places, all about the train bombing and Heller kidnapping case. .
Everyone knew at a glance that this basement was a tactical discussion room for a group of terrorists, and even today's action plan was all determined here.
The first thing everyone did was to check the owner of this house. It was obvious that this room had been used for a long time, and the owner of this house was definitely involved.
But everyone found out that this house is the private property of a company called Galaxy Finance Company. This is not the point. The point is that the director of Galaxy Finance Company is Audrey's husband Paul Rains. . .
This is very embarrassing.
"No, I don't believe Paul will be involved in what happened today!"
Heller instinctively denied it after seeing Paul's name, and Audrey also had an expression of approval.
In addition to their personal feelings, they also know Paul very well. Paul is actually just an honest programmer, but he later went into business and became prosperous. . .
But others don't care so much. A large number of highly threatening Middle Eastern engineers and programmers are still roaming around, and they will not let go of any valuable clues.
"Heller, I understand how you feel, but with so many things happening today, is there anything else that's impossible?"
Heller immediately compromised and agreed that they would bring Paul back for investigation.
But at this time Audrey took the initiative to ask for help: "He is in the hotel now and has to catch a plane soon. Let me stabilize him."
"No...Audrey...you..."
"Stop talking, Dad..."
"Heller, don't worry, we have told Jack the news, and he is on his way there."
. . .
On the other side, a group of agents locked Mandy's location in a low-rent apartment building based on intelligence from the taxi company.
A large number of convoys came to the area, and several helicopters also arrived.
Buzz buzz——
In the room, the man who had had a one-night stand with Richard had just gotten up from the bed and was getting ready to put on his pants.
Mandy, who was lying on the bed and sweating profusely, suddenly heard something in her ears. She didn't even have time to put on her clothes, as if she heard something. She immediately straightened her legs and inserted her feet into a pair of high-heeled boots on the ground. , quickly walked to the window and carefully opened a corner of the curtain.
Buzz-buzz-buzz-
The sound of propellers rubbing against the air reached her ears clearly, and she also saw that there seemed to be many more cars and some heavily armed personnel outside.
After sighing, he returned to the bed and quickly put on a set of clothes.
The man on the other side was still putting on his pants slowly. After Mandy glanced at this man who she regarded as just a tool to solve personal physiological needs, she said something kind and righteous.
"They were sent to us."
The man was confused for a moment and asked confusedly: "What do you mean?"
"I said, they found us."
As Mandy spoke, she quickly put on a black lady's vest and said plainly, then picked up a silenced pistol and inspected it carefully.
"A helicopter just landed a block from here."
Only then did the man understand what the other party meant and quickly put on his clothes, "Uh... have they found us?"
After putting on his clothes, the man started running again, rummaging around for his personal belongings. At this time, Mandy pulled the gun bolt with a click and suddenly said: "We can't leave together."
The man stopped what he was doing and asked with a confused look on his face: "What do you mean?"
"Because one of us needs to be in the house."
"Why?"
"Because that would make them think we were all hiding somewhere in the house, and buy the other person some time to escape."
The man didn't realize the seriousness of the problem. After hearing this, he thought Mandy's joke was funny and couldn't help laughing: "Are you kidding? One of us needs to sacrifice for the other?"
"That's right," Mandy's arm suddenly raised like lightning, and after a soft pop, she continued to say to the man with an unbelievable look on his face: "It's you."
Before the man's body was about to fall, Mandy directly placed the body on a chair in a room with her back to the door. This would make the searchers suspicious and delay for a while. She would not bet that the people outside would not It's possible to know her house number.
After doing all this, Mandy picked up her phone and walked out of the room, ready to play hide-and-seek with the agents outside who came to catch her, but she made a call first.
"Marvin, I'm in trouble."
Marvin on the other side said calmly: "No matter what kind of trouble it is, start the clock from now on. If you delay it for half an hour, it will cost you one million dollars, forty minutes two million dollars, fifty minutes three million dollars, and one hour five hundred dollars." Ten thousand U.S. dollars.
You know my credibility, and I never default on my debts. When the time comes, just let me make sure you haven't been caught, and I will credit the money into your account right away. "
After hearing this, Mandy just shrugged: "You are the employer, you have the final say.
I will try my best to delay getting caught, but after being caught, I will still use your information to try to get a reduced sentence. "
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can complete the task."
After Mandy and Marvin reached an agreement, they hung up the phone and took a deep breath.
At this time, her goal had changed from breaking out to delaying her arrest as long as possible, so that she could not kill anyone. She was also prepared to confess and seek leniency for a reduced sentence after being caught.
On the other side of the phone, Malvin rubbed his eyebrows and called Anderson again.
"Have you arrived at the Old River Hotel?"
"We've arrived in Santa Barbara, and I saw the sign for the Old River Hotel."
"Come on, there's some trouble over there Mandy."
Anderson, who had just gotten out of the car and was about to enter the Laohe Hotel, also frowned: "How much does Mandy know?"
"She doesn't know your actions, but she knows about you and Navi sharing a room together!"
After hearing this, Anderson almost blurted out a curse word and said directly: "Try to delay as much as possible. You also know that the progress here is not determined by me!"
"Okay, I'll try my best!"
Anderson hung up the phone and walked into the Old River Hotel cursing.
On the second floor of the hotel, a man and a woman were having a fierce battle.
Suddenly, a phone ringing frightened the man to disarm him on the spot. He breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the bed. The blond beauty sitting above said with a look of disgust: "Is this all you have?"
The man's face turned red, and he immediately stood up and started to get dressed: "Nicole, I have to go back to the base, there is a flight mission coming soon."
The beauty took the ringing mobile phone and smiled coquettishly before answering the call: "We haven't seen each other for two weeks, John."
John ignored the beauty's plea and kept on getting dressed. Suddenly, he watched the beauty's smile gradually disappear while she was listening on the phone, and said something to him.
"I'm looking for you...it's your wife..."
