Chapter 583 The show begins
The helicopter is in position.
There won't be too many people accompanying Gao Yi on board, because it is indeed very dangerous, and there is not much Gao Yi can do, at best he is just a bystander, so it is not a very wise thing to bring all the members of the Garden on board the helicopter.
In a small sense, Gao Yi was just a spectator, but in a big sense, Gao Yi was a witness to history.
In addition, Gao Yi must play the most critical role in this script. He is a middleman acceptable to both parties. If he does not show up, the two parties who have no mutual trust at all will almost have no chance of continuing this conspiracy.
There were four UH-60s, but only one landed on the tarmac because there were less than ten people boarding, so one helicopter was enough.
Kant was still a little nervous. He looked at Gao Yi and whispered, "Let's get on the plane."
Gao Yi smiled slightly, then he followed Kant, bent over and ran quickly, and the group boarded the waiting helicopter.
The helicopter took off quickly and the atmosphere in the cabin was a little solemn. Lucy sat next to Gao Yi, and then she couldn't help but reach out her hand.
Gao Yi grabbed Lucy's hand, placed it on his thigh, and squeezed it a little harder. Then Lucy, who looked a little uneasy, immediately calmed down.
Kante also wanted to get some sense of security from Gao Yi, but he couldn't stretch out his hand for Gao Yi to shake.
After thinking for a moment, Kant suddenly said, "Is it okay?"
"no problem."
Gao Yi understood Kant's feelings. Being a witness to such a shocking conspiracy to destroy a country was already nerve-wracking enough. And as an extremely critical implementer, not everyone had enough psychological quality to bear the pressure.
Kant exhaled and closed his eyes.
The helicopter took off, quickly rose into the air, and then flew quickly towards Hakone, and the three helicopters waiting in the air immediately followed.
Four helicopters flew in loose formation.
Gao Yi saw from the porthole two fighter jets passing quickly from the side, and faint blue light came out of the two micro-nozzles at the tail of the planes.
There are two nozzles at the tail, so it must be a twin-engine fighter. Gao Yi couldn't help but touch Kant, who was sitting on his right, with his arm and whispered, "What plane? Whose plane is it?"
Kanter whispered, "It's definitely not an F-15, so it can only be the escorting FA-18."
The main force of Japan's air force is the F-15, and the main carrier-based fighter of the US Navy is the FA-18. Both are twin-engine fighters, but the F-15 is a little larger. Gao Yi couldn't tell the difference, but Kant knew what it was at a glance.
Gao Yi felt much more at ease when he learned that there were fighter jets escorting him.
In name, it is a joint combat command system between the United States and Japan, but if the Americans really want to do something, their fighter planes will not even have the authority to take off.
Even if Japan finds that the Americans are unreliable and is determined to shoot down all threatening flying objects at all costs, the Americans can really shoot down Japan's planes.
It’s not that our planes are not good enough, but it depends on who our fighter planes are fighting against. In any case, Americans will never give our planes a chance to threaten them.
How General Snyder negotiated with Benzi or how he mobilized the troops were not things Gao Yi considered.
Gao Yi only wanted the helicopter to land safely and pick up Yuri and the nuclear bomb, nothing else.
The flight time was not too long, but it was very torturous.
But after really flying to the designated location that Yuri mentioned, even Gao Yi couldn't help but start to get nervous.
"over there!"
The way to find the target is very simple. A burning circle of fire suddenly appears on the ground. This is used to guide the landing site and is an agreed guide mark.
Gao Yi didn't say anything, but Kant's voice was trembling. He held the intercom and said in a trembling voice, "Land."
The helicopter Gao Yi was riding in did not land at all. A helicopter in the flight formation broke away from the formation and flew towards the guidance target on the ground.
It was far away and the view was not very clear. When the helicopter landed, the strong downward pressure wind blew away the burning circle of fire and extinguished it. The ground was completely plunged into darkness and nothing could be seen.
The plot is simple, especially simple.
It was shockingly simple. There was no complicated meeting ceremony, no identity verification process, and not even any conversation. The first plane that went down was to deliver the person, the second plane that went down was to pick someone up, and the third plane that landed was also to pick someone up.
The first helicopter picked up the nuclear bomb, the second helicopter picked up Amos, and the third helicopter picked up Yuri.
Gao Yi and his helicopter were the third to land.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Gao Yi and his team's helicopter landed quickly and smoothly on the ground.
There were two people standing not far away. Yuri put his hands in his pockets and looked at the helicopter with its door wide open with a smile.
Kant exhaled, swallowed his saliva, pulled out the pistol with his right hand, waved his left hand twice, and shouted: "Turn on the recorder, arrest him!"
The people brought by Kant jumped off the helicopter one after another. They rushed to Yuri with rifles in hand and pointed their guns at him.
Then Yuri and a man Gao Yi had never seen before were pushed onto the helicopter.
Right inside the helicopter cabin, a simplified version of a quick interrogation was immediately conducted.
Pushing the man into the helicopter cabin, Yuri, with no smile on his face, looked cold and arrogant. Next to him was an old man with an Asian face.
A soldier holding a gun pressed Yuri on the seat on the helicopter's cabin wall. Kant shouted with spit flying: "Tell me, what is your conspiracy!" Yuri said calmly and indifferently: "I have three conditions that you must fulfill. If you fulfill one of my conditions, I will reveal to you the hidden location of a nuclear bomb. If you refuse to negotiate or fail to fully meet our conditions, the nuclear bomb will detonate and drag the whole world into the abyss of war."
It's just a formality, or a play, but the play has to be performed more realistically. The video will be produced as evidence in the future. With this evidence, it can at least show that the United States has tried its best.
Kant said anxiously: "What conditions!"
"First! The United States recognizes the Soviet Restoration Committee as a legal organization."
Kant was stunned for a moment and said, "Impossible... No, this is not something I can decide. Go on and state your conditions."
Yuri shook his head and said, "That's all. Let's talk about the next condition after we've agreed. The time limit is two hours. If you refuse or are too slow, a nuclear bomb will explode in two hours."
Yuri once said that with nuclear bombs in hand, no one would dare to disobey them.
Kante hesitated. He struggled for a moment, then he said decisively: "I need to report. Take off. Let's go back first."
Kante waved his hand again, and then the team member who was using the battlefield recorder turned it off.
Kant looked at Gao Yi and whispered, "Is it okay? Do you want to do it again?"
It's just acting, not a live broadcast, so you can do it several times.
Gao Yi thinks it’s not necessary.
"No problem, it's a great performance."
Yuri smiled and nodded to Gao Yi, then he whispered, "We can record a shot in the interrogation room after we get there."
Gao Yi and Yuri looked at each other, but they did not communicate further because this was not the place to talk.
The helicopter began to fly back.
At this moment, Kant's expression suddenly became nervous, and Gao Yi immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
"The Air Self-Defense Force fighters are approaching us. The Joint Command has ordered them to return, but the Japanese may refuse to follow the Joint Command's order and forcibly shoot down our helicopter."
Gao Yi and his men could not see or influence the confrontation taking place at a higher level.
If the U.S. military and Japan's Air Self-Defense Force really start an air war, then... let's fight.
It was a pity that Gao Yi and his men couldn't see the air battle at all, because the fighter jet's combat area was very large, and it was obviously not necessary to fly in front of Gao Yi and his men for a close-range dogfight in front of them.
After just a few minutes, Kant's face relaxed a little. He turned to Gao Yi and whispered, "It's okay. The ground-based air defense system won't open fire. We are forced to share intelligence with you. Now I'm informing you that we have accurately grasped Amos's location and have launched a capture operation. So I'm choosing to wait and see for the time being."
Gao Yi nodded, then he looked at Yuri and whispered, "How long will it take?"
Yuri thought about it, then he whispered: "Half an hour at most."
This means that the first nuclear bomb can be detonated in half an hour at most, and the remaining time is just enough for Gao Yi and his team to fly back and land safely.
This process should be neither complicated nor too difficult.
It must be done simply and smoothly.
It took about forty minutes to fly back, and the helicopter carried Yuri and his men back to the headquarters.
It did feel a little unreal, and as he watched Yuri being escorted into the American interrogation room in front of him, Gao Yi even felt like the whole world was unreal.
If this world is real, then why can things be so simple?
Yuri was pushed to sit on a chair. Now it was the formal interrogation room. There were two cameras in front of Yuri, but it didn't matter. This was not a live broadcast. At most, they could just reshoot.
Yuri nodded, Kant made an OK gesture, General Snyder, who played the role himself, exhaled, swallowed, nodded, and then the camera turned on.
Snyder said in a dry voice: "Tell me where the nuclear bomb is hidden. This is your last chance!"
Yuri said seriously: "Then agree to my conditions first."
"You tell me where the nuclear bomb is hidden first, otherwise... otherwise..."
Snyder had forgotten his words, and he didn't introduce himself first, but for an operation that was only partially successful, it was the right thing to do.
Snyder was stuck. He paused for a moment, turned around and said, "This one was deleted and re-shot."
It was just a reshoot, and Snyder was much smoother the second time around.
After an unsuccessful negotiation and interrogation, and after roughly rehearsing the dialogue, Yuri looked at his watch and said seriously, "You have wasted too much time. Unfortunately, a nuclear explosion is about to happen. To prove that I am not scaring you, please watch the live broadcast."
Yuri said the last lines of the scene, and saying this line shows that Mount Fuji is ready.
The nuclear bomb can be detonated.
A computer was placed in front of Snyder. Everyone present had serious expressions. Their seriousness was not fake or acting, because they all knew that a nuclear explosion was really about to happen.
And it's very close.
