Chapter 286: Uncovered His Scheme
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
A sinister voice echoed from behind Nan Yan.
The man spoke in English, and judging from the faint reflection on the frosted glass of the door, he stood at least 187 centimeters tall and appeared muscular.
The frosted glass’s blurry reflection made it impossible to discern any more details.
Nan Yan maintained her posture, not moving, and calmly replied in English,
“Sure, but could you please hold your gun steadier?”
The man had initially expected to see a woman begging for mercy with tears, trembling in fear, or even screaming in terror. He was prepared to knock her out if she dared to call for help.
However, Nan Yan’s reaction surprised him.
He pressed the gun harder against her lower back, his tone dark as he asked, “Who are you?”
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, “A student.”
“Are you kidding me?”
The man felt like Nan Yan was mocking him.
What kind of student could remain so calm with a gun pointed at them? Even the female students in gun-owning countries like the United States wouldn’t be as composed as her.
Nan Yan said, “I have my student ID in my pocket. Do you want to see it?”
The man menacingly said, “Take it out.”
Nan Yan lowered her hand, as if about to retrieve something from her pocket.
As her hand reached her waist, she suddenly made a move.
She swiftly dodged to the side, avoiding the gun pressed against her lower back. Simultaneously, she grabbed the man’s right hand and forced the gun downward.
Bang!
The suppressed pistol didn’t produce a particularly loud sound.
A hole was punched through the cabin floor by the bullet.
The man cursed angrily and immediately tried to grab Nan Yan again.
But she didn’t give him a second chance.
Lifting her leg and bending her knee, she forcefully pinned his lower body, swiftly using a joint lock to disarm him. The gun fell into Nan Yan’s hand, and she aimed it at his forehead.
“Now, sir, it’s your turn to answer my questions. If you don’t, I’ll have to shoot,”
Nan Yan declared.
The man’s face twisted in a sinister expression. “Let’s all die together. No one will survive!”
“You’re all going to die, all of you!”
Seeing his paranoid expression and hearing his words, Nan Yan’s expression couldn’t help but change slightly.
A terrorist?
It didn’t seem likely.
Was it someone who had given up on life and wanted to die with a plane full of people?
“Do you have any accomplices?”
“Hehe, you’re all going to die, die together.”
The man didn’t answer Nan Yan’s question at all, and his expression was extremely eerie.
He didn’t care at all about the gun pressed against his head by Nan Yan. His eyes were wide open, and his lips curved into an exaggerated smile.
Nan Yan simply put away the gun, then twisted his arm and guided him out of the restroom.
“It’s too late, hehe, none of you can escape…”
“Shut up.” Nan Yan applied force, and the man’s arm, twisted in the opposite direction, made a “crack” sound as it was broken.
His shouts drew the attention of everyone on the plane.
Qin Lu raised his head, saw the man under Nan Yan’s control, closed his laptop, and placed it aside before walking over to her.
“What’s going on?”
Nan Yan’s expression turned slightly cold. “Brother, come with me to the cockpit.”
A flight attendant rushed over to ask what was happening.
Nan Yan calmly replied, “This is not the place to discuss it. Go back to your rest area. ”
After a moment of hesitation, the flight crew led Nan Yan, Qin Lu, and the controlled man to the rest area.
“There’s an unknown danger on the plane, and I request access to the cockpit to assess the situation.”
Saying this, Nan Yan took out the gun she had taken from the man earlier.
The flight attendants in the rest area immediately became nervous.
Without paying attention to the others, Qin Lu asked first, “Yan Yan, are you injured?”
“I’m fine.” Nan Yan shook her head.
“We’re running out of time. The longer we delay, the lower the chances of escaping from the danger if there really is something hazardous on the plane.”
“Take us to the cockpit.”
Nan Yan’s patience had run out, and for the third time, she made her request.
Finally, after a brief discussion, the flight attendants made an exception and allowed them to enter the cockpit.
The captain’s face turned pale when he saw outsiders suddenly enter. He said, “Who allowed you to come in? This is a restricted area for passengers. Please leave immediately.”
“We don’t have time. Move aside.”
Nan Yan and Qin Lu went directly to the front.
They pushed the captain and co-pilot away and took their seats.
The two of them were working together for the first time.
Without any communication, they relied on instinct and unspoken understanding to screen for potential dangers on the plane.
As for the angry captain, flight attendants approached him and explained the situation.
“In that case, contact the ground for an emergency landing.”
The captain’s face darkened. “Who are you two? If you don’t provide a reasonable explanation, I’ll send you to jail!”
“It’s not a bomb.”
Qin Lu had completed a search of the entire plane.
No traces of any bombs were found.
Similarly, Nan Yan found nothing suspicious.
Suddenly, she placed her hands on the control panel and spoke coldly, “I know what it is.”
Nan Yan got up and walked briskly towards the exit.
Qin Lu followed closely.
She approached the man and pretended, “We’ve found where you’ve hidden things. I have to admit, the place you thought of is quite concealed. Most people wouldn’t think of it.”
The man was initially stunned but then grinned maniacally. “You can’t find it. None of you can find it. Hehe, it’s too late now, no one can save you!”
Nan Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly. “As expected.”
As he spoke, the man glanced quickly in the direction of the restroom Nan Yan had visited earlier.
Nan Yan was sure that the item was inside.
Seeing Nan Yan actually heading in that direction, the man suddenly began to struggle, trying to break free from his restraints.
Several flight attendants rushed over and securely tied him up with thick ropes.
Nan Yan and Qin Lu quickly searched the restroom.
Finally, on the ventilation fan, they found an opened container emitting a floral fragrance.
“Hold your breath; it’s highly toxic.”
Following Nan Yan’s reminder, Qin Lu held his breath, carefully sealed the opened container, and then wrapped it with other materials to ensure it wouldn’t leak further.
“Open your mouth, big brother.”
Nan Yan took a bottle from her pocket, poured out two pill-like capsules that resembled candy beans, put one in her own mouth, and brought the other one to the edge of Qin Lu’s mouth.
Qin Lu glanced at the girl before lowering his head and swallowing the pill.
“What’s inside these?”
“Biological weapons.”
Nan Yan’s face darkened. “Luckily, it was discovered in time. Otherwise, when these chemicals evaporate and spread through the ventilation system to the entire plane, almost everyone on this plane would have died.”
The supply of pills in her hand was limited. She could only ensure the safety of herself and Qin Lu while saving a few people with these limited pills.
Fortunately, she uncovered the man’s scheme.
Ironically, it was the man’s own fault for getting caught.
He had already placed the items, and as long as he left the restroom pretending nothing had happened, when she later entered, she wouldn’t have noticed any 1ssues. It could be said that even fate was on their side.
Now they needed to figure out who this man really was and what his purpose was in doing all this…
