The United States was a country that didn't forbid guns.
The bad guys had guns, and so did the good guys. The country had a normal gun market, but of course, there was also a black market for guns.
Because guns weren't banned, the black market for guns was even more rampant than in countries that banned guns. From small revolvers to AK-47s, everything could be bought on the black market in the United States.
Even tanks and armored vehicles retired from the military could be bought through legal channels.
Huo Shaoheng wasn't talking about pistols, of course. He was talking about all kinds of sniper rifles, semi-automatic submachine guns, and at least one submachine gun with high firepower.
All of these things could be obtained from the black market, and the North American branch of the Special Operations Forces was prepared.
They had to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations. This was all part of their daily work.
Zhao Liangze accepted the order and began to allocate manpower and weapons.
Huo Shaoheng didn't sleep the entire night as he studied the blueprints of the six-story building.
The Special Operations Forces had gone to the Bronx many times over the past two days and used all kinds of special cameras to take infrared photos of the building. They could even see through the walls.
At night, Huo Shaoheng looked at the photos and quickly locked onto a room on the third floor.
Zhao Liangze looked at the infrared photos and was speechless. He crossed his arms behind Huo Shaoheng and said bitterly, "These people are so inhumane! What are they trying to do by locking people in cages?! "
"What else could they be doing? Nothing good, "Huo Shaoheng said calmly." But Tan Guiren really seems to be alive. "
The infrared photos showed that the room on the third floor was divided into cages with an adult and two children inside. There were also some empty cages. Did this mean that there had been other people inside?
According to the analysis of the bones in the infrared photo, the adult was probably Tan Guiren.
She had been missing for more than a month and was still alive. She was very lucky.
"One is bound to have good fortune after surviving a disaster. If this girl can really escape this time, I bet her father will definitely be the Prime Minister. "Zhao Liangze raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.
Huo Shaoheng left the computer and took out his gun to wipe it. Without looking up, he said, "The Special Operations Forces doesn't care about internal affairs. Don't forget the rules."
"Yes!" Zhao Liangze was shocked and quickly reflected on whether he had crossed the line.
Huo Shaoheng cleaned his gun as he formulated a battle plan in his mind.
In the six-story building, other than the room with the iron cage on the third floor, all the other rooms had people with weapons. They were probably the accomplices of the kidnappers guarding this room.
He really didn't expect the other party to send out so many people.
There were more than 20 rooms on the sixth floor, and there were at least two people in each room. Therefore, they were facing at least 40 enemies.
These 40 people were all strong armed bandits.
However, no matter how strong the bandits were, they couldn't defeat the regular army.
Huo Shaoheng firmly believed this.
The evening news was still playing on the television.
Today, the police station on the Upper West Side of Manhattan received another mysterious voice changer message. This time, it said, "Where the sun shines, is where the Statue of Liberty rises."
Compared to the previous two vague messages, the message this time was much clearer.
Everyone immediately thought of the Statue of Liberty.
Almost overnight, the Statue of Liberty Park in New Jersey was overcrowded. Countless riddle-guessing enthusiasts flocked to the park to search for clues of missing people.
At this time, Huo Shaoheng had already completed the deployment of the troops and confirmed the plan for Team A and Team B to attack separately.
"Team A has 10 people. Three teams of snipers and observers, and two teams of assaulters. Go directly into the building. Team B has 20 people. All of them will attack the building. All weapons must be equipped with silencers. Attack at two in the morning. Over. "
Zhao Liangze assigned Huo Shaoheng's plan.
The Special Operations Forces' North American branch had been completely withdrawn last time. Now it was a new department with new recruits, and it was their first large-scale mission.
These soldiers rubbed their hands together. They had been waiting for this day for a long time.
The July night in Manhattan was already a little hot.
People in the Bronx who didn't have air conditioning at home sat at their doors at night to cool off. They looked at the passersby with sinister eyes. They looked like they would pull out their guns and shoot at the slightest disagreement.
Huo Shaoheng held a high-powered telescope and stood at the window of a hotel not far from the Bronx. He looked at the six-story building.
"The name of this building is a little interesting." Zhao Liangze stood beside Huo Shaoheng and whispered, "It's called Ivory-Tower."
Huo Shaoheng laughed. "Ivory Tower? Haha, this group of people really know how to flatter themselves. "
An ivory tower was supposed to be a pure and untainted place, but now it was the ugliest and most filthy place. It had to be said that the name was a little ironic.
…
In the room on the third floor of the "ivory tower," the lights were dim, and the two children were already asleep. Tan Guiren hugged her knees as she sat by the wall. Her small face was only the size of a palm, and her eyes were large and dark.
The door opened with a creak, and the handsome, cold young man walked in again.
He was wearing a black shirt and pants as he stood in front of Tan Guiren's cage. He stared at her with a gaze so focused that it was almost greedy.
The closer he looked, the more he felt that Tan Guiren was beautiful. She was pure and untainted, like a princess in an ivory tower. That kind of touching elegance and grace was something that only a family of scholars could have. It wasn't something that could be achieved with money or power.
In order to kidnap Tan Guiren, he had followed her for a whole six months.
In the past six months, he had come to understand her more than she understood herself.
But Tan Guiren turned her head away and didn't look at him. This kind of silent disdain was the most hurtful.
The handsome, cold young man's gaze dimmed.
"Brother Hong, you're here …" One of the gangsters guarding the door hurriedly ran out from the room next door and bowed to the young man's back.
Brother Hong raised his hand and said without looking back, "Go out. I have something to ask her."
"Yes, Brother Hong." The gangster saw that Brother Hong wasn't angry and quickly closed the door, as if afraid that he would change his mind.
Brother Hong held a plastic bag in his hand as he walked step by step to Tan Guiren's cage. Bending down, he opened the door with the key and entered.
The cage was low, so a normal person could only bend over or sit inside. They couldn't stand up straight.
"There's a bathroom over there. Go in and clean up." Brother Hong looked at Tan Guiren silently for a while before handing her the plastic bag.
Tan Guiren's back moved slightly, and her body shifted uncomfortably.
Her period had finally arrived after being late for four to five days.
She hadn't expected the kidnapper to notice …
Tan Guiren was angry and embarrassed. Her body and mind had been in a highly stressed state for more than a month, and the discomfort of her body made her even more helpless. Finally, she couldn't help but cry.
Seeing her sobbing quietly, Brother Hong, who had never been softhearted, actually felt his heart skip a beat.
He put the plastic bag on the ground and turned to walk out of the cage. He didn't lock the cage and just waited for Tan Guiren to come out and clean up in the bathroom.
Tan Guiren cried for a while and turned to see the plastic bag on the ground. Gritting her teeth, she finally reached out and opened it.
There was a pack of sanitary pads inside, and it was the brand she was most used to.
Holding the plastic bag, Tan Guiren looked up to see that the young man called "Brother Hong" hadn't left the room yet. Instead, he stood at the door and looked at her silently. She couldn't help but stand up with the help of the cage and bend over to get out. Reaching his side, she looked up and begged, "Please, let me go back. What do you want? Money? My family will give it to you. Although my family isn't rich, we have a lot of ancestral treasures that we can exchange for money. My family has a collection of many authentic works by ancient artists … "
Brother Hong reached out to stroke her messy black hair and sighed softly. "… I'm sorry."
"Sorry? You're saying sorry now?! "Tan Guiren was sad and disappointed." What do you want?! How did I offend you?! "
Brother Hong retracted his hand and looked at Tan Guiren with infatuation for a while before saying in an even lower voice, "I've already spread the word. If your family wants to save you, they should know what to do."
"Tell me! As long as you tell me, I'll definitely beg my family to help you! " Tan Guiren immediately tensed up when she heard that there was still hope of getting out alive. "What do you want?!"
Brother Hong looked at Tan Guiren's face longingly, his eyes roaming over her body.
Tan Guiren understood and her expression changed instantly. She took a few steps back and said cautiously, "What do you want?"
Seeing Tan Guiren like this, Brother Hong's expression also darkened. He returned to his sinister and ruthless self and sneered. "What do I want? Of course I want to f * ck you! What are you going to do?! "
"You —! Shameless! Perverted! Scumbag! "Tan Guiren trembled with anger, but that was the only word she could use to curse him.
Brother Hong's eyes darkened again. He took a step forward and lifted Tan Guiren's chin with his hand. He clicked his tongue and said, "I'll propose terms to your family tomorrow to exchange for a political prisoner locked up in the Hua Xia Imperial prison. If your family doesn't agree, you'll have to follow me for the rest of your life! "
