Chapter 80: being hostage

"Bang!"

  With this gunshot, the tourist in the prison fell silent and looked at the man standing in the middle of the corridor.

  Brigadier General, Frank Hammer.

  The man had a strong face, a high nose, and sunken eye sockets, but his eyes were very bright.

  He looked at everyone, slowly put down the high pistol pointing above, and said slowly and politely: "From now on, you are my hostages. Before I receive the ransom, please cooperate with me."

  Hearing this, instead of being afraid, the tourists roared excitedly.

  But some people are also getting suspicious.

  Just when they wanted to ask the tour guide, they saw the two tour guides yelling, and the people dressed as soldiers were also locked in the cell.

  "Let me out!"

  Finally, some tourists began to shout out of fear.

  But... silence.

  The soldiers, whom they regarded as actors, just looked at them blankly.

  Finally, everyone realized that this was not a joke and shouted loudly.

  "Let us out!"

  "Let us out now!"

  "My God! What shall we do?"

  The tourists shouted in fear.

  "Bang, bang!"

  With several gunshots, General Hammer's deputy came out, looked at the quiet tourists with cold eyes, and said, "Just be quiet for me, or else..."

  The tourists huddled together in fear.

  Mike kept the children behind him, but the faces of the kids seemed very calm. Even Hope, because he knew that his father was Ant-Man, seemed very calm.

  Compared with the others, Coulson seemed too agitated.

  He grabbed the iron bars of the cell and shouted, "Why? General Hammer, why are you doing this!?"

  Hearing this, the tourists looked at General Hammer in surprise.

  This man turned out to be a general?

  General Hammer glanced at Coulson and wondered, "You know me?"

  "Yes!" Coulson exclaimed: "I'm in the Marine Corps and just transferred to another department this year."

  General Hammer nodded, saluted Coulson, and said, "I'm sorry for today, soldier!"

  "But, I have to do it!"

  Coulson looked at him sullenly.

  This is a person who has participated in many wars and is regarded as a legend by the people in the Marine Corps, but...

  "Why?"

  General Hammer looked at Coulson and said solemnly: "I led the soldiers to participate in battles, they shed blood, and the living were honored, but the dead have been forgotten, but...they also have families, parents and children, then how should they live?"

  "Don't they have pensions?"

  "Pension?" General Hammer looked at Coulson calmly and said, "What can I do with that pension? Besides, some people still don't get a pension."

  "So, you're asking for the ransom to... for the families who lost their loved ones."

  "right!"

  General Hammer said a word, apologized to Coulson again, and said to the tourists: "Don't worry, as long as I receive the ransom, you will be released."

  After listening to the other party's words, the tourists actually quieted down, and even felt that such a general did not seem to be a bad person.

  "Ho..."

  Mike looked at the general and shook his head with a smile.

  This is really twisted justice.

  Although the family members of those soldiers are pitiful, aren't they innocent tourists?

  If this kind of thing is not handled properly, and someone was hurt then this will definitely explode.

  Moreover, a general who leads a soldiers to commit a crime, which is a scandal for a country. If Washington simply succumbs, they will become a joke.

  Someone will definitely come to the rescue, and it shouldn't take long.

  With a whisper in his heart, Mike consoled the children for nothing and sat on the bed in the cell.

  Coulson took two steps back and glanced at Mike and the others with a sigh. Seeing that their faces were calm and not at all afraid, he was secretly surprised, but after thinking about the first time he met Mike, he was somewhat relieved for a little.

  He's not an ordinary person.

  Just then, he saw Eric and Charles, and took out a bag of potato chips from the backpack they were carrying.

  The corners of Coulson's mouth twitched slightly.

  The package was torn open, and the five sat together.

  crunch, crunch...

  The attitude of the five made the people want to hit them.

  And the marines who followed General Hammer to carry out this operation were speechless when they looked at the five people, not to mention the other tourists, who were stunned by their actions for a long time.

  General Hammer's eyes twitched, he took out a mobile phone, pressed a number, and calmly told the person on the phone that he had kidnapped the hostages on Alcatraz Island, then threatened: "In addition to the hostages, I also Four VX gas bombs were placed on the island, and when the time is up and I don't get the ransom, or if you mess up, not only will these hostages die, but the gas bombs will also be fired into San Francisco."

  Hearing this, Mike and the four just looked at him then continued.

  Coulson looked at them with admiration, shook his head with a wry smile, sighed and fell silent.

  For a time, there were only deep breathing and sobbing sounds in the entire prison.

  Mike glanced at Coulson and handed over the potato chips. After being rejected, he said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

  There are superheroes in this world, and there is one in San Francisco. Although he is in the hospital now, he should be able to receive news.

  In fact, things went exactly as Mike had thought.

  100 million is not a small number, but it is nothing to a country, but if you do that, then they will become an international joke.

  So, after an emergency meeting, the federal government prepared to organize a commando to sneak into the heavily guarded Alcatraz prison to rescue the hostages and disarm the gas bomb.

  "so boring..."

  Charles was lying on Mike's lap, looking lifeless.

  They have been here for half a day.

  Looking at the sky outside, Hope said helplessly: "It seems that today's travel plans are in vain."

  Mike smiled at the four and said, "It's a special experience."

  The four nodded.

  Coulson was very envious and admired the mentality of these people.

  Interestingly, after dinner time, the marines who became criminals also provided the hostages with canned food.

  Not to mention, it tastes good.
