"The culprit has been arrested in just an hour. How is that possible?" Hearing Blomley's words, the surrounding reporters were in disbelief. Since when were the officials so efficient?
"According to Wilson and the other passengers' statements and the description of the culprit, we have indeed caught the culprit who planted the bomb. To ensure that we catch the other accomplices, we cannot reveal the details of the female culprit.
At the moment, we suspect that there are at least three murderers, and today's bus case and the clothing store case from a few days ago are the same group of people. Well, that's all I can say. If there are other cases, we'll decide whether to disclose them to the media or not. "
After that, Blomley rushed out of the reporters' encirclement with the help of his subordinates and the police.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, a video of the female culprit's arrest appeared on the TV station. The host introduced that it was a video taken by a passer-by when the anti-terrorist police were arresting the suspect.
The location was a remote pier on the Thames River. At the same time, two male suspects were arrested. The culprit must have wanted to escape but was caught by the police.
The identities of the suspects were still unknown, but according to the testimonies of the six bus passengers, the suspects caught by the police looked very similar to the person who planted the bomb on the bus this morning.
After the live news broadcast, the TV station's CEO excitedly listened to his subordinate's report. Their customer service phone had been ringing non-stop, and the ratings had increased exponentially in the past ten minutes. It was not a waste to spend 500,000 pounds on this video.
Blomley was even more satisfied. The twelve special teams had been formed for less than a day, and after ten minutes of putting on a show at the pier, they had enough funds for the operation.
The leader and his accomplices who had been on tenterhooks all cheered after seeing the news. One of them crossed himself and said happily, "This is really a blessing from God. If it wasn't for the woman who looked so much like Maggie, we would be in big trouble."
The leader nodded and said, "The three of you pack up and head to Margate Harbor immediately. The police have just caught the culprit, so the interrogation won't be too strict. But after today, if they find out that they caught the wrong person, they will definitely look for us.
I'll stay here and pick up Maggie tomorrow. If Maggie and I don't meet you at Margate Harbor by 12 o 'clock tomorrow morning, it means we've been caught. The investigation and the mission to blow up the transport ship will depend on the three of you, understand? "
"Boss, it's better if I stay here to pick up Maggie."
"Stop, Olly. I know what you want to say. Are you thinking that you and Maggie are the ones who planted the eggs? Even if you get caught, as long as you don't say anything, you can buy us more time."
"That's right, boss."
The leader shook his head. "It's useless. As long as any one of us is caught, the others will immediately be exposed. Don't forget that we registered our information and photos when we rented the house. Margie and I are not good at taking action. Tim wants to make the bomb, investigate, and blow up the ship. Only you and Miller are suitable. The three of you must leave now."
After thinking for a while, the three of them realized that this was indeed the case. Ten minutes later, Olly, Miller, and Tim packed up their things and drove to Margate Harbor in two separate cars. Surprisingly, they didn't encounter any checks on the way and arrived at Margate Harbor safely in three hours.
At 8.30am the next day, Catherine asked William and Blommley who were standing beside her in the airport tower. "Is everything ready? Are you sure that the delivery guy, Ian Wood, won't accidentally explode? "
"Of course. Send me Ian Wood's video on Sunday."
"Understood, Sir."
A few seconds later, a taxi appeared on the monitor in front of Catherine. The delivery guy, Ian Wood, left his home building and got into the taxi that the members of the Special Operations Team had been waiting for. After a few minutes of driving, a colorless and odorless gas came out and Ian Wood unknowingly fell asleep.
Seeing that the target had fallen asleep, the members of the Special Operations Team immediately parked the car on the side of the road, took out Ian Wood's computer, turned it on and inserted a USB drive. One minute later, the computer was taken over.
Then, they went all the way to the airport. The sleeping Ian Wood was woken up by the Special Operations Team members. After paying the fare, he walked into the airport and walked according to the airport's big screen to the departure lounge that was only ten meters away from the cargo gate.
"Why am I boarding here today?" Ian Wood wondered. However, when he saw that there were only a few dozen passengers waiting for the flight, Ian Wood became happy again. In the past, the departure lounge was overcrowded. Today, there were fewer people and it was much quieter.
At 9: 15, the boarding announcement was broadcasted. A middle-aged woman came to the boarding gate to check the tickets. When it was Ian Wood's turn, he could clearly smell the alcohol on the ticket checker.
He complained in his heart. These airlines were probably about to go bankrupt because of the economic crisis. They didn't even care about their employees drinking at work. He hoped that the crew members on the plane weren't like that.
After checking the tickets, he carried his backpack and followed the passengers in front of him into the boarding passage. However, when he walked onto the plane, he was stunned. This wasn't a passenger plane at all. It was more like a cargo plane.
"Who are you people?" A person in a captain's uniform appeared in front of everyone. When he saw that the people on the plane were packing small bags, the captain understood. "God, this is a cargo plane. How could the airline make such a mistake? Get out, get out quickly."
"Damn it, we took the wrong boarding passage. I was wondering why the passage just now was different from normal." After being pointed out, the passengers on the cargo plane suddenly understood.
A few members of the operation team who disguised themselves as passengers secretly stole Ian Wood's laptop. They slowed down their pace and passed it to the last member. Then, the laptop was placed in the cargo compartment.
When everyone followed the captain of the cargo plane back to the departure lounge, Ian Wood suddenly shouted, "Damn it, I lost my laptop." After saying that, he wanted to go back to look for it. However, the airline staff who knew that their employee had drunk and made a mistake in the boarding passage wouldn't let Ian Wood go back. They quickly comforted Ian Wood and promised to send someone to help him look for it.
William and Catherine who were waiting saw Blommley covering his ears and listening for ten seconds. He smiled and said, "It's done. Now, all that's left is to detonate it."
"Why are you looking at me?" William grinned at Catherine. "You're the one who gave the order, Catherine."
Catherine rolled her eyes at William and confirmed with Blommley again, "Are you sure it won't affect the other planes?"
Before Blommley could answer, William continued, "Don't worry, the fuel tank on that plane is actually empty. Our goal is to destroy the special materials on Valentine's plane. As long as there's a fire and the temperature rises, the material will be deformed under the impact of the foam from the fire engine in the airport. The probability of it being destroyed is more than 90%."
