178: Crash! Who did it?

The Steel Regiment serves as a mechanized, first-response unit.

Having been amplified by the internet previously.

It is currently the focus of widespread attention from netizens and high-level officials.

Suddenly, they were informed that foreign Secret Agents and serious criminals were investigating them!?

Regiment Commander Hu's temper immediately flared: "Dare to show a single claw, just try it!?"

Beep, beep, beep... The jamming signal was just a short frequency pulse, and the helicopter in the air began to shake violently.

Alarms swept through the cockpit, and the entire helicopter started rocking.

"Mr. Tom! What's going on!? Do you even know how to fly a plane!?"

"Why is it shaking suddenly? Did we run into a tornado?"

"We're not going to crash, are we?"

Mr. Tom sat in the pilot's seat, sweating profusely.

"It's a threatening jamming signal sent by the China Military Region!"

"They are limiting us to one minute to immediately return to our normal flight path..."

Damn... Mr. Tom forcefully controlled the helicopter.

In his heart, he had already cursed these dozen or so serious criminals from Japan thoroughly.

Yes, he knew that some of these dozen people held noble statuses.

But... do you guys have absolutely no brains?

He had warned them long ago that they might be attacked... Now look, something happened, and they're blaming him for not knowing how to fly!?

"Mr. Tom! Hurry and fly out of here!"

"We escaped with great difficulty; we can't die here!"

"The intelligence gathered is enough..."

"Before the China fighter jets find us, let's hurry and leave!"

Now they only had one thought: escape!

Rumble... The helicopter hovered, flying toward the normal navigation track at maximum speed.

A staff member immediately reported: "Reporting to the Regiment Commander! They flew back!"

"Hmph..."

Regiment Commander Hu snorted coldly, his expression displeased.

At the same time... the Director of the Security Bureau, Deng Zhiyong, also received the news.

They flew back?

Deng Zhiyong cursed under his breath: "A bunch of cowards!"

"Aren't they afraid their children will be born without an asshole?"

"Tell the reconnaissance team to keep monitoring them!"

... Mr. Tom piloted the helicopter back to the normal flight path.

Having witnessed the anti-aircraft missiles and cannons, they fell silent.

Rumble... Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they could leave safely.

Unexplained explosions began occurring around the helicopter!

The dozen or so serious criminals from Japan were scared witless... "Mr. Tom! What's happening? Aren't we flying normally!?"

"Yes! We are flying normally... but..."

Under the cover of night, the sparks generated by the explosions continued relentlessly.

One shot after another... Anti-aircraft missiles!?

Are these anti-aircraft missiles with a "Gatling" attribute added to them?

Although the aiming wasn't great... but the continuous firing... Mr. Tom was controlling it with all his might... "It's over, it's over! China definitely doesn't want us to leave!"

"That action just now must have offended and angered them..."

"They want to silence us! They want to keep us here!"

"Quick! Mr. Tom! Find a way to break through..."

The dozen or so serious criminals wished they could immediately pick up the helicopter and run.

Mr. Tom's face was filled with worry... "There are too many bombs!"

"They are playing tricks on us! They are humiliating us!"

"Fuck! Fuck!"

"I warned them long ago not to provoke the dignity of China..."

"So many anti-aircraft missiles! May God have mercy on us!"

All Mr. Tom wished for in his heart was to leave behind a complete corpse!

However... Boom!

As a huge shell struck the helicopter's fuel tank, an explosion occurred!

The helicopter, already unstable due to the jamming signal, completely lost control... Beep, beep, beep... A red alarm echoed inside the helicopter.

Mr. Tom's face turned pale: "Damn it! We've been hit by a missile!"

"What should we do!?"

"Parachute!?"

With a "boom"... the helicopter's fuel tank ignited... And the dozen or so serious criminals from Japan, including Mr. Tom.

They were suddenly drawn by a bright light... "What is that... What is that!?"

Fireworks, brilliant like the midday sun, instantly exploded!

Lighting up the dark night sky completely... Mr. Tom sharply drew a cold breath: "Incendiary bomb? Is that a white phosphorus incendiary bomb?"

"Do they want us dead this badly? To actually use..."

After seeing those flames, everyone lost hope of survival.

The helicopter lost control... followed by a "boom!"

Before they died, the dozen or so serious criminals on the helicopter were still wondering: What kind of weapon did China use!?

Rumble... The fireworks faded... A sound of explosion, surely greater than the fireworks, echoed in the nearby mountains.

The team members of the Longhai City Fire Station exchanged glances.

The explosion was loud, accompanied by firelight... Station Chief Ma Da's expression froze: "Did something catch fire?"

Deputy Station Chief Liu Chaofan couldn't worry about recording at this moment.

"Old Ma, I'll handle the evacuation... Hurry up and sound the siren!"

-- [What's going on!?]

-- [It looks like something caught fire!]

-- [Oh, don't be nervous! What harm can a firework do!?]

-- [Holy crap? Did the firework set the forest on fire?]

-- [Forest fire? Natural disaster or man-made calamity!?]

-- [Great, let's promote it this way... This kind of promotion is very bold... This kind of promotion is very effective!]

-- [Note to self: from now on, if I set off fireworks, I'll do it under my blanket.]

-- [Try to minimize the danger as much as possible...]

Ding-dong, ding-dong... As the siren inside the Longhai City Fire Station was sounded.

Passersby and onlookers quickly began to evacuate.

Meanwhile... inside the Security Bureau, the department responsible for monitoring the helicopter suddenly realized: the helicopter detection signal has vanished!

A staff member urgently reported to Deng Zhiyong: "Director! The helicopter has disappeared!"

Deng Zhiyong: ???

He was feeling depressed at the moment.

"Disappeared? How did it disappear?"

"Under our intense surveillance, did it suddenly grow wings and fly away?"

"Or did it... become invisible?"

The staff member lowered his head, carefully recalling the helicopter's previous flight path... A bold idea suddenly emerged: "Director! It seems, it seems to have crashed..."

"Yes! It must have crashed!"

"We detected it several times via satellite, but we haven't received any results!"

Crashed!?

Deng Zhiyong and Ding Jian suddenly stood up.

Out of the blue... how could it have crashed!?

If it was an accidental crash, that would be wonderful... But... then he recalled the call he made to the Steel Regiment earlier.

No way?

That guy Old Hu is a bit hot-tempered... What if he really issued some kind of order!?

Deng Zhiyong frowned tightly.

He didn't dare think further.

He quickly pulled out his phone and immediately contacted Regiment Commander Hu... shouting: "Old Hu! You... tell me the truth!"

"You, you old bastard..."

"Did you shoot down that helicopter?"
