Chapter 541: Chapter 541

Jiang Yuan felt like a lonely traveler dying of thirst in the desert at this moment.

But the message from Song Guanchao was like an oasis in the desert, giving him hope for life.

He had a way out!

In an instant, Jiang Yuan thought of many things.

He recalled how Song Guanchao had subdued the robbers with his bare hands during the bank cash transport heist, bravely blocking the gun barrel with his body.

He remembered the dazzling performance in the Hou Wen Case, where Song single-handedly turned the tide, catching Hou Wen and recovering the 7 billion embezzled funds that had been on the run.

Despite the cockpit being under control and the cabin door being unopenable from the outside,

Song Guanchao had stood up!

Whether he could solve the problem or not, he had stood up now!

Even someone as composed as Jiang Yuan was somewhat excited at this moment.

And even somewhat grateful.

No matter why he had stood up now, whether to take all the blame or truly resolve the situation, Jiang noted the favor.

Jin Rong looked at the message and thought this guy must be crazy; what was he doing showing off at a time like this?

Liang Jianfeng furrowed his brows tightly, not believing that Song Guanchao could subdue the other party.

Not because Yao Jinsheng had a gun, but because they were inside the cockpit.

The cockpit door was not something that could be opened by human force.

Even if one used a fire axe to hack at it, it simply could not be breached.

Li Jun secretly shook his head, thinking Song Guanchao really knew how to show off; even if you want to demonstrate your abilities, you have to consider the situation.

It was clearly a no-win situation, and yet here he was foolishly jumping out to take responsibility: this wasn’t just foolishness, it was stupidity!

At times like this, the right thing to do was to do nothing at all.

After all, when the sky falls, there will be someone tall enough to bear it.

They didn’t disagree with Song Guanchao’s abilities, but they knew clearly that personal abilities were useless in this situation.

Wu Yun saw the message sent by Song Guanchao and really wanted to send him a private message, telling him not to overexert himself.

Liang Hao also kept sighing softly, feeling that he was too impulsive.

But the message had been sent, and Jiang Yuan wouldn’t miss such a perfect scapegoat.

Mayor Jiang didn’t reply immediately.

He gradually calmed down.

Of course, he wanted to agree right now.

But doing so would not look honorable.

Moreover, even if Song Guanchao took the blame, it would be a minor blame; the major responsibility would still lie with him.

Mayor Jiang typed and asked, "Secretary Song, do you have any good ideas?"

Song Guanchao’s reply was brief and forceful: "Break the door, catch the person."

But Mayor Jiang grew even more silent.

Break the door...

How to break it?

They certainly wouldn’t open the door to let you catch them.

Plus, they have guns.

The others also looked speechless, really thinking he had some brilliant plan, and this was it?

Mayor Jiang said, "The standing committee members should come over later; I cannot decide on this matter alone."

He wanted to leave the decision fully to Song Guanchao, but he couldn’t make the decision at this time.

Later, when Wu Qiangwei arrived, she would surely advise, and all he hoped for now was that Song Guanchao’s resolve would remain firm.

Song Guanchao felt a bit frustrated; he knew what the others were worried about.

He glanced at the time, there were still over three hours, they could make it.

Beside him, Fu Ying and Secretary Sun looked solemn and tense.

Her hand was tightly holding onto Song Guanchao’s sleeve.

Song Guanchao gently patted her hand back: "It’s alright."

"Okay," Fu Ying squeezed out a smile.

Secretary Sun had a mournful expression.

What the hell was this?

How could he have encountered something as outrageous as hijacking a plane?

Yao Jinsheng and Chen Guanyun must be crazy; if you want to run, can’t you find another way? Must you make such a big fuss?

Time passed, second by second.

A few minutes later, Wu Qiangwei and other City Committee leaders arrived.

Shortly after, Mayor Zheng and others also gradually arrived.

During this time, Jiang Yuan also pondered that strange text message.

The message explicitly stated, these people had already fled.

But he didn’t have the luxury of dealing with that issue right now.

If the other party had really fled, sending the police now would be pointless.

If the other party hadn’t fled, going there now would only startle them.

Moreover, whether they fled or not no longer mattered.

Nothing mattered more than Yao Jinsheng hijacking the plane.

After Wu Qiangwei and the others entered the conference room, Jiang Yuan explained everything in detail.

Their faces flashed with confusion, doubt, and finally shock and disbelief.

It took them a few seconds to digest and accept what sounded like a joke.

Jiang Yuan continued, "Secretary Song says he has a way."

He showed the group message to Wu Qiangwei and the others.

Wu Qiangwei was so angry she almost slammed the table.

She grabbed her phone and directly questioned in the group with a voice message, "What are you, crazy?"

Song Guanchao, "Secretary, I’m not crazy."

"Tell me, how are you going to break down the door?"

"By force."

"The cockpit door cannot be opened from the outside!"

"I can open it!"

"You!" Wu Qiangwei was furious, she simply didn’t believe Song Guanchao’s words.

It wasn’t that she didn’t believe in him, but based on scientific knowledge, she couldn’t believe that an ordinary man could break open the cockpit door by force.

Wu Qiangwei said, "Even if you can open the door, I ask you, how are you going to capture him? Yao Jinsheng has a gun, do you think he’ll just let you capture him?"

Song Guanchao said, "That’s a problem, but I think it’s not a big issue. He carries an NP-22 pistol, 9mm caliber, with limited power. As long as it doesn’t hit the heart or head, it’s just more bullet holes."

"Yao Jinsheng is such a fool, I could stand in front of him and let him aim and he still wouldn’t hit my head. Once the door is broken, he’ll only have one chance to fire. So, at most, I’ll get hit by one bullet."

"One bullet, in exchange for the safety of all the passengers on the plane and capturing them, I think it’s worth it."

Everyone heard their conversation.

Through the screen, they could all feel Wu Qiangwei’s anger.

However, after hearing Song Guanchao’s reply, they were somewhat stunned.

Is this guy really not stupid?

What do you mean "only get hit by one bullet"?

Man, that’s a pistol!

Getting hit by one bullet could be fatal or cause serious injury from a gunshot wound!

How can you talk about it so casually as if it’s nothing?

Beyond the shock, they were impressed.

Some didn’t like Song Guanchao because he was high-profile and flashy.

But like him or not, at this moment, they all admired him.

Because this guy really could stand up at crucial times!

As an enemy, he was detestable.

But as a colleague, they were incredibly relieved.

Everyone, when faced with insurmountable troubles, hoped to have a backbone, someone to stand up.

Song Guanchao was such a person, giving them endless security.

Even Mayor Zheng, who was always at odds with him, started to admire this guy upon hearing Song Guanchao’s words.

Secretary Lu sighed internally, observing Song Guanchao’s nonchalant tone, then glanced at the screen where Secretary Sun was trembling in his seat.

Comparing people could really be infuriating.

Both were secretaries, but how could the gap be so huge?

This thought emerged in the minds of all the standing committee members.

Why don’t I have a secretary like that?

"Secretary, let me do it," Song Guanchao said. "Trust me this once! If I fail, I’m willing to take full responsibility!"

Wu Qiangwei wanted to say "no," all objective data told her that Song Guanchao couldn’t break down the door.

However, he was full of confidence and sure of himself.

She was somewhat swayed.

Seeing Wu Qiangwei not responding, Song Guanchao directly addressed Jiang Yuan, "Mayor Jiang, you are the commander of this operation. I now request to proceed with the capture operation against Chen Guanyun and Yao Jinsheng. If the operation fails or causes any casualties, I take full responsibility! Please approve, Mayor Jiang!"

Jiang Yuan felt like he was being roasted over a fire.

To agree would upset Wu Qiangwei.

But looking at Song Guanchao’s determination, even if he didn’t agree, Song would still likely go ahead.

After all, he was already on the plane.

No one in the conference room spoke, all eyes were on Wu Qiangwei.

Wu Qiangwei was silent for a few seconds before speaking, "Only success is allowed, not failure! Come back alive!"
