As a Police Director, one must maintain the necessary posture and unwavering stance. Imdiately demanding negotiations would disgrace the nation. Japan does not negotiate with any acts of terrorism; this is a matter of principle, and the Police Director shall not breach it. But these words caused Hook's expression to turn cold, and he said icily, "Terrorists? You call us terrorists? Fine, very good. Now I demand the TV station be present. You have three minutes, and for every minute you delay, I will kill a hostage. Since you say I'm a terrorist, I'll show you what terror is."
The Police Director's face grew increasingly grim. After deliberation, he imdiately picked up the radio to contact the command center. These people dared to hijack an entire airport—what wouldn't they do? And they've controlled the entire airport, indicating they have plenty of manpower. A frontal assault would only result in more innocent casualties. With no better choice, the Police Director was forced to temporarily compromise.
Demanding the presence of the TV station was also part of the plan. Hook strictly followed Luo Zheng's plan. Three minutes later, a news helicopter flew over, landing on the open ground of the highway. From the helicopter, a female anchor and a caraman descended, rushing over with excitent, completely ignoring the danger. This was an exclusive story that could make them famous.
The caraman carried the cara while the female anchor glanced at the dia Director, then excitedly turned to Hook, finding him sowhat familiar. She paused, suddenly recalling sothing, her expression changed slightly but still turned to the Police Director and asked, "Director, shall we begin?"
The dia Director ignored the female anchor, instead staring intently at Hook, saying, "The TV station is here. I've agreed to your request. Shouldn't you release so hostages as a gesture of goodwill?"
"You're very naive," Hook sneered, looking at the female anchor. She quickly approached a few steps, stopping three ters from Hook, displaying her work ID hanging around her neck, then signaling the caraman to start, saying, "I'm Mako, the editor of Kyoto TV Station, pleased to et you." She spoke in an international language.
The Police Director remained silent, staring coldly at Hook, wishing he could tear him to pieces. However, fearing that others might act out in fury and harm innocents, he refrained. The shot that sniped the ard helicopter was clear evidence, showing there were hidden experts at the airport, possibly aiming at him.
With this in mind, the Police Director's expression grew even colder. Hook, however, sneered dismissively at him before turning to Mako, saying, "I initially intended to negotiate peacefully and leave once we got what we wanted. But this bastard called a terrorist, so fine, I'll be a terrorist for a while."
"You've hijacked an entire airport with thousands of people; your behavior indeed resembles that of terrorists. What are your demands? You seem familiar; I've seen your footage from so ti ago," Mako asked excitedly, showing no fear of Hook. As a journalist and newsworker, Mako clearly understood her position and role. The person in front of her needed her and wouldn't harm her.
"You've seen it then. It's a pity your governnt doesn't believe it. Yes, I am Hook, from a distant primal forest here to avenge the innocent souls of my massacred tribe," Hook said coldly, recalling the innocent deaths, his face turning wrathful, his gaze towards the Police Director filled with anger.
"The people are dead; please restrain your grief. If you slaughter innocents inside the airport, wouldn't you be committing a sin as well?" Mako continued to question, eyes gleaming with excitent, sensing many stories here to uncover. If she managed to unearth the secrets, she would beco the top news journalist in the country.
"Slaughter innocents? I'm not your governnt," Hook sneered.
"But our governnt has issued an official statent saying those videos are fabricated and not our nation's doing. Is there any undisclosed evidence for your claims?" Mako pressed further.
"Are you suggesting all this is the doing of the Shijing family?" Hook said coldly.
"Isn't it?" Mako inquired further.
"Of course not. Our tribe has no feud with the Shijing family, we don't even know each other. We've never had any contact. Why would they do such a thing?" Hook shot back coldly, staring at the Police Director, his face sinking as he continued to speak coldly, "The Shijing family is just a scapegoat. I've discussed this with Shijing Kong; he confird everything was done under soone's orders."
"Shijing Kong? That traitor who attacked the palace? Hasn't he disappeared? Who instructed Shijing Kong?" Mako grew increasingly excited as she listened, realizing she was hearing explosive news.
"How could he not disappear?" Hook sneered, his gaze sweeping over the increasingly nurous Constitutional Soldier Team behind the Police Director. Hundreds had gathered in just a few minutes, indicating traffic had been restored. Retracting his gaze, Hook sneered coldly, his voice dripping with nace, "Shijing Kong is cooperating with us. His demand is simple: hand over the one who ordered this, and his kidnapped grandson. As for my demand, the innocents who died tragically must be compensated, or I won't mind having thousands of innocents from the airport be buried with them."
The claim of cooperation with Shijing Kong was to cover for Luo Zheng and others disguised as ninjas. Rembering the innocent victims, Hook's anger surged. Without waiting for Mako to respond, he pointed at the Police Director and said coldly, "Rember, hand over the mastermind Yuanfei Zuo who gave Shijing Kong his orders, and Shijing Kong's grandson who Yuanfei Zuo kidnapped. I want to see them in two hours."
Helping Shijing Kong stand up was also part of the plan. First, to play out the full act and cover Luo Zheng and others' identities; second, to hit Yuanfei Zuo. Once Yuanfei Zuo dies, Kaga's reputation will be tarnished, he won't be able to serve at the palace, and might even beco a target for elimination.
"Impossible, how could Yuanfei Zuo instruct Shijing Kong?" The Police Director's face changed dramatically as he shouted.
"How could it be? You should ask him yourself. Whether Yuanfei Zuo conveyed the Pri Minister's orders or the Emperor's, or he falsely claid soone's na, that can only be answered when he is brought here. Ordering Shijing Kong to massacre the innocents of my tribe, kidnapping Shijing Kong's only grandson, and even attacking the Shijing family's manor, resulting in the death of over a dozen elders—these facts can be easily verified. I can't comprehend how you let such a person beco the palace's Guardian," Hook said coldly, deliberately revealing this information to tarnish Yuanfei Zuo's image.
As soon as the relevant governnt departnts follow the clues to investigate, they will quickly uncover many issues with Yuanfei Zuo. To quell public outrage, they will hand Yuanfei Zuo over for handling. Yuanfei Zuo, a formidable rogue, will naturally resist. When the fight breaks out, Kaga's forces will face a governnt crackdown, and Luo Zheng's mission to destroy the ninjas will be fulfilled. This is the real reason Luo Zheng orchestrated the airport hijacking.
