Alan chuckled again. Confidence was a good thing, but conceit was often bad. He suddenly raised his voice and said to the three bodyguards in the fight, “Five more minutes. If you can’t beat them, you’ll lose this month’s bonus.”
“Yes,” the vigorous baritone sounded neatly in the cabin, as if rising the morale.
Among the passengers, someone suddenly yelled, “You men who have guts follow me and the warriors. Kill these wicked bastards. Otherwise, if the plane is hijacked, we can’t live even if we want to. They will take us as hostages, or even kill us.”
Passengers who were cowering suddenly awakened by this yell. There were many dangers anyway. If you didn’t fight, you were awaiting for doom. If you fought together, you might still have a glimmer of life. There were wives and children waiting at home. You couldn’t be a coward.
One after another, someone jumped out to join the battle, smashing the gangster with everything that could be used as a weapon. They hesitated at the weapons on the gangster and didn’t dare to get too close.
But a clever young man took advantage of a gangster in front of him turning around and slashing at the bodyguard. He hugged the gangster from behind and restricted his movement. The bodyguard who dealt with him immediately took the chance to give him a fatal blow. The sharp weapon in his hand fell to the ground.
Without the threat of the knife, another person rushed over and held him to the ground together.
“Tie his hands with a belt,” someone shouted.
Someone immediately took off the belt on his trousers, “Here, it’s made of genuine leather and isn’t easy to break.”
“I have one too. Tie his feet. Don’t give him a chance to resist.”
Although this method was indigenous, it was also practical. The gangster’s hands were quickly tied up behind him, together with his feet. His body was tied into a triangle, making him unable to free himself, and was thrown aside.
One was subdued here, which invisibly encouraged the passengers. Even the woman, who was shivering with fright and only knew how to cry, took advantage of the fact that another gangster didn’t pay attention when he was fighting with the bodyguard. So, she quickly picked her metal chain bag and swung it into his face.
The metal chain on the bag hit the gangster’s eyes. It irritated and angered him. He aimed the knife at her, “You, bitch. Die.”
The woman was so scared that she held her head and screamed, thinking it was over for her.
After a while, she discovered that the expected pain never came at all. Instead, she heard the gangster’s howl in pain.
She opened her eyes and raised her head, looking at the gangster’s bloody face and he was covering his ear. The knife that should have been for her had mysteriously cut off the gangster’s ear by the bodyguard, when the knife was clearly still in the gangster’s hand.
After the gangster’s ear was chopped off, it fell on the lap of a person next to him. That person only smelled a strong smell of blood, and he screamed like a trumpet, then fainted.
The woman stared at the bodyguard with an admiring gaze, who said coolly, “Useless.”
He turned around and grabbed the knife from the gangster, then kicked him to the ground hard. Someone immediately tied him up.
“Hey, handsome. That’s impressive.” The woman had forgotten her danger at once and her heart was beating.
But the bodyguard ignored her.
When the last gangster was subdued, Gerald’s face already looked ugly.
Alan smiled, “You don’t expect this result, do you?”
Gerald listened to their groans and couldn’t help cursing, “Bunch of rubbish!”
“Actually, your people’s skills are good,” Alan didn’t hesitate to praise. “But, don’t underestimate the power of a masses. Although they aren’t professionally trained, their unity shouldn’t be looked down upon.”
Gerald snorted coldly, “So what? Alan Hoyle, don’t forget. Inside the pilot now are all my people. In ten minutes, the plane will land in a place you don’t expect. That place is an inescapable net which is waiting for you. Do you think these small fries can ward off the tight guards at the isolated island for you and let you pass through the vast sea?”
As soon as he was finished, something that was the same as a heavyweight bomb exploded on the plane. Someone immediately exclaimed, “Is the plane really hijacked?”
“God. This is my first time getting on a place, how come I encounter such bad luck?”
“Was our fight a futile just now? I even got a few knife’s slashes.”
“I have parents and children to care for, I don’t want to die.”
“What to do?”
The bound gangster lying on the ground caught the passengers’ panic, ignoring the foot on his back, he snorted loudly. “Are you guys afraid now? Let me tell you. When the place touches the ground, our brothers will rush in and all of you can’t run. Whoever kicked me just now, it’s better to be honest with me. Maybe I can consider giving you less torture later.”
Another gangster said, “Death is by the door and you guys still stand at the wrong side. You guys deserve it.”
Then there was the third and fourth gangster who chimed in.
