A certain dog grinned, turned his head, and went to look at the scenery outside the car.
Luke then dialed Selina's number and told her the general situation.
Selena: "No problem, I will help you handle everything here, just be careful."
Luke: "The gold nugget is here with me, you"
Selena didn¡¯t take it seriously: ¡°It¡¯s okay, that guy is very powerful, as long as he can help you.¡±
Luke just said yes and hung up the phone.
Between him and Selena, there is no need to say thank you for this kind of thing.
In less than twenty minutes, he arrived at a private airport in the suburbs. Luke, who had concealed his appearance, just gave Ginny's name and was greeted by the flight attendant on standby.
Luke was not in the mood to get involved with this beautiful flight attendant. He simply said thank you and then said, "It's time to take off. I'm in a hurry."
Flight attendants don¡¯t talk nonsense. There are very few people who fly urgently at night and are not in a hurry.
Although Luke is not her employer, her employer is powerful, and the people who can borrow this plane are not ordinary people.
Luke got on the plane, took out his notebook and started checking the information.
Of course Luke knew about Robert and Catherine's travel plan, but he didn't study it carefully. He took it out and found the location of the cruise ship, and he frowned.
This is a cruise ship from New York to Europe. The current location is the same as Robert said, not anywhere.
Cruise ships are hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest land, and New York used to be close to a thousand kilometers away.
¡° In such a major case of hijacking thousands of people on a cruise ship, the police¡¯s first choice is to negotiate with the robbers.
By the time a professional team is actually dispatched to carry out a rescue operation by force, it will probably be more than ten hours later.
¡°How many tourists died during the rescue operation is just a matter of numbers for the police.
¡°As long as no important person is killed, it doesn¡¯t matter who the victim is.
And Luke just wants to ensure the safety of Robert and Catherine. The safety of other tourists is not a problem that he can solve. He cannot take care of thousands of tourists.
As the business plane headed east, Luke checked the messages Robert sent from the satellite phone from time to time.
The situation is either good or bad.
The gangsters on the cruise ship seemed to have a clear goal. They did not kill the tourists, but gathered them in batches and locations, as if they were looking for someone.
But as tourists are being driven to several holding locations, Robert and Catherine's room for maneuver is shrinking.
The number of these gangsters has exceeded 200, with a clear division of labor and meticulous and professional planning.
They carried out control and cleanup on the cruise ship layer by layer and cleared all the tourists out.
Robert didn¡¯t dare to make a move at all.
These gangsters all have walkie-talkies, and they all operate in groups and report safety regularly.
If he makes a move, he will be discovered in less than ten minutes, and then a group of gangsters will search for him.
At the same time, various key points on the cruise ship were also blocked by the gangsters.
If Robert were alone, this blockade would be equivalent to nothing.
But with Catherine, he had no chance of hiding back to the place cleared by the gangsters.
Fortunately, the cruise ship is large and the gangsters are not impatient. The carpet-like search operation is also very time-consuming.
Luke counted the time silently in his mind, still a little anxious.
The best case scenario is that he gets there first.
That way he would be absolutely sure to ensure Catherine's safety.
There is no need to worry about Robert's safety, this guy is not an ordinary person.
Therefore, the worst-case scenario is that Robert and Catherine are also found. Luke only hopes that Robert will not be impulsive at that time.
But the business plane had only flown for three hours when Robert came out with bad news: the police had received news that the cruise ship had been hijacked.
¡°Apparently, Robert was not the only one on the cruise ship to have a satellite phone.
This made the gangsters act more impatiently, and their methods became much rougher. The first unlucky guy to be shot appeared.
It was a policeman who was traveling with his wife. When his wife was pushed by a gangster, he got excited and started a fight with the gangster. One of the gangsters opened fire.
Luke's brows furrowed.
He was afraid of this situation.
Gangsters in a relaxed state will be less wary of the outside world, and their actions will not be too impatient in an environment like a cruise ship.
But with the threat of the police, it is bound to cause a chain reaction.
¡°And the gangsters have already shot and injured people, so naturally they don¡¯t care about shooting and injuring the next resister.
Finally, in the early hours of the morning in New York, Luke hurriedly got off the business plane, turned around and boarded another small plane at the private airport.
The pilot was a bearded man. He just heard Luke report an order number and the coordinates of the destination before he started the plane and set off.
¡°The pilot didn¡¯t care what the client, who was so dark that he couldn¡¯t even see his face, was doing in the depths of the sea in the middle of the night.
Who asked this customer to pay ten times the price for the usual tasks?
For this windfall, pilots don¡¯t mind taking a little risk.
He is not a law-abiding citizen, and this plane has been modified privately. It is absolutely illegal to use it to solicit passengers, but it flies faster and farther than ordinary small planes.
The round-trip flight of nearly 2,000 kilometers is not something that a normal small plane can complete, and this guest also parachuted halfway, which is an extremely rare request.
But what about that? Anyway, they paid me.
In the vast darkness, the small plane climbed rapidly, leaving the brightly lit New York metropolis behind.
Luke took a look at the guy's speed and asked, "How many hours will it take to reach the destination?"
Bearded man: ¡°Within three hours.¡±
Luke looked at the watch again, it was twelve o'clock.
After pondering for a moment, he asked: "How long can it take to arrive at the fastest without affecting safety?"
He wished that this small plane could fly at the speed of a rocket, but unfortunately he was afraid that it would disintegrate in the air and fall freely.
The bearded man was silent for a moment: "If you want to advance, you have to pay more."
Luke: "Okay."
Bearded man: "I can guarantee that I will arrive within two and a half hours. How much more can you add?"
Luke: "Two hundred thousand."
The bearded man turned his head and glanced at him: "No checks."
Luke casually dug into his backpack a few times, pulled out a black bag, and threw it next to the bearded man: "The timer starts. If you don't arrive at the scheduled location at 2:40, you won't get a single cent of the money."
The bearded man didn¡¯t care at all. He just stretched out his hand and quickly checked two stacks of banknotes. Then he stuffed the bag into a space under the seat: ¡°As long as you have money.¡±
As he spoke, he pressed his hand on the instrument panel a few times, and the speed of the small plane suddenly increased.
Luke completely understood the bearded pilot¡¯s behavior.
¡°If you¡¯re not a man who wants money, why would you dare to accept a private job in the middle of the night and fly a thousand kilometers overseas?
"I'm not here for money, so why can I turn a blind eye even if my customers want to skydive halfway?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
