Chapter 1068 Sewers, Steam and Secret Lines

The sweet girl was hit by a glass shotgun, and the left half of her back, except for the part protected by the bulletproof vest, from her shoulder to her proud little buttocks was covered in blood and flesh by the tempered glass fragments, which looked extremely terrifying.

Hannah did not completely avoid the suicide drone, but in order not to distract the people downstairs, she concealed her injuries in the team communication.

In fact, Jack should have noticed it at that time, because it was very abnormal that Hannah failed to provide support after occupying the sniper position.

But because he was distracted by the armored vehicle, he didn't think about it too much, let alone after seeing the remote-controlled bomb.

Fortunately, this is New York and not Los Angeles, because it is cold and everyone wears plenty of clothes. In addition, tempered glass will not form sharp angles like ordinary glass when it breaks, so such injuries only look scary.

Although this is more terrible than a serious injury for a girl who loves beauty, Jiejie's cheek had been injured before, and she quickly recovered as before or even better than before with the treatment of a so-called "secret recipe" handed down from the ancient oriental court, so she was not overly worried.

Jiejie and Alice accompanied Hannah to the hospital. Jack, who stayed at the scene, was still very angry, especially when the head of the international department, Jon Michaels, had the nerve to jump out and make comments.

Fortunately, this guy was still sober and did not try to drag the wanted criminal team that came to help into the water. However, watching him desperately trying to put the blame on the NYPD was really infuriating.

Frank Reagan, who arrived at the scene in person, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot. He didn't say a word the whole time and completely ignored this guy.

Only after getting rid of this guy did he wave his hand to drive away all the attendants, and then he came to Jack who was standing at the entrance of the sewer and sulking, and handed him a cigar, "How big is our trouble?"

"Let your Internal Affairs Department take action first." Jack waved his hand to refuse. He didn't have the habit of smoking cigars before the problem was solved.

Although theoretically he was the only one who could see through the dissipating smoke that the ESU member protected Zhang Mingjun as they got off the armored vehicle, the three bodies in the vehicle could not deceive anyone.

It’s not scary that there is a traitor in the NYPD. What’s scary is that this traitor executed his three brothers without hesitation.

"I will personally draft a report and submit it to the Ministry of Justice for explanation." Frank said in a deep voice.

Jack stared at the sewer opening that was emitting steam for a while, then shook his head, "Don't jump to conclusions, let's notify the CSI lab to come and collect evidence first, the most important thing is to find out the identities of those guys.

I'll fight this case, and you'd better go to the hospital to see Danny, he's in a bad state."

Hearing Jack talking about his eldest son, Director Frank's face suddenly became tense, "My people told me that Danny's life is not in danger. Could it be..."

Knowing that he had misunderstood something, Jack quickly corrected himself, "Of course not. Danny was trapped in the car at the time, watching all those things happen, and his dead colleague was lying next to him. It is very likely that he would have some psychological problems."

Jack's words were a little euphemistic, but he actually discovered very early on that Danny had mild PTSD, which was probably caused by certain experiences during his military service.

However, this guy always looks tough in front of others, and since the situation wasn't serious, he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, everyone today has some psychological problems.

Frank hesitated for a moment, looked at the entourage he brought with him who were looking here eagerly, hesitated for a moment and whispered, "I will go to see him later."

"If not, let Linda talk to him." Jack hesitated and made a suggestion. Frank advocates a paternalistic education, although it is a more open-minded one, but the one with the highest emotional intelligence in the family is Danny's wife Linda.

At this time, a senior police officer who came with Frank and had a big belly finally couldn't help but step forward after putting down the phone. "Sir, the municipal technicians said that the steam pressure in the sewer here is very unstable. You'd better stay away from the explosion site."

There are many urban legends about New York's sewers. In addition to the so-called "conscience of the city" in the eyes of experts from the University of East China Sea who carefully cultivate it through remote breeding, the most famous ones are crocodiles and turtles.

The story of alligators in New York's sewers is more widespread than the many versions of the human meat bun legend in major metropolitan areas of the East.

As for the turtle, it is naturally referring to the famous comic "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". It's a pity that this world should not have been integrated with American comics, otherwise the subsequent plot would have been the turn of those four pizza-loving guys to appear.

For most people who know this country through Hollywood movies, they should be impressed by the scene where the hot air coming out of the manhole lifts up the skirt of a beautiful lady.

As early as the 19th century, in 1882, Edison Company began building steam pipelines underground in New York City. Today, there is still a complex 169-kilometer steam pipeline operating underground in Manhattan Island.

The steam is used by hospitals for high-temperature disinfection and to provide heating for nearly 10 homes in winter, including the luxurious penthouse apartment that Rossi lent to Jack.

So it’s not that Jack didn’t want to chase, but after the explosion caused the road surface to sink and broke the steam pipe in the sewer, if he went down, he would basically end up with his head scalded into a pig.

As for tracking down a different sewer outlet, I'm sorry, the drawings of New York City's sewers and underground pipelines are both confidential documents and cultural relics with a history of hundreds of years.

Without careful planning and preparation beforehand, Jack would not gain anything except getting himself covered in dirt and stench by entering that complex and ancient underground system.

The only hope now is to get some clues by blocking and checking all major traffic arteries, but he also has no hope for this.

Since the other party was able to bribe the ESU special police, obtain the route of the FBI escorting the wanted criminals, and prepare RPGs, professional suicide drones and high-yield explosives in advance without triggering the ATF's early warning, they should not have made any mistakes in the evacuation plan.

ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives) is an extremely powerful federal law enforcement unit in the United States, with a large number of undercover agents and informants in important cities such as New York.

The daily exchange of intelligence between the FBI and the ATF is extremely frequent. Whenever there is any movement on the road, Jack and his team would have known about it from the bulletins long ago.

This shows that the sources of the weapons and equipment used at the scene, and even the explosives that were finally detonated, were extremely secretive. They could not have been purchased locally, but were transported in through some unknown secret route.

Since this secret route can transport so many dangerous goods, it may also be able to secretly transport people out.
