Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 596
"Mr. Lin, what do you need?" the stewardess asked with a smile.

"Is the plane's course... off?" Lin Qiming stared at the other party and asked.

"Oh...it's like this. A thunderstorm cloud appeared on the original route. This aircraft is not equipped with an energy shield generator. For safety reasons, the captain decided to make a detour." The stewardess paused for a moment, and immediately asked Lin Qiming explained that the expression on her face did not change during the whole process.

"Did I guess wrong?" Lin Qiming murmured in his heart, he really wanted to read some flaws from the other party's eyes, but staring at a person of the opposite sex for a long time, it is really easy to be regarded as a pervert--it's okay to be a pervert Now, Lin Qiming doesn't care about such trivial matters, but if the other party really has a problem, doing so is tantamount to scaring the snake away.

After he thought for a while, the expression on his face changed into a frivolous look. He leaned forward slightly, rubbed the stewardess' thigh with his knee intentionally or unintentionally, and said in a low voice: "Madam, if you don't mind , can you tell me your name and communication method?"

Since he would be regarded as a pervert, he could simply act in a full set and collect some useful information.

In order to make the effect more realistic, he even put his hand directly on the opponent's arm - the flight attendant wore a short-sleeved uniform skirt, so Lin Qiming could directly touch the opponent's skin and... the powerful muscles under the skin.

"Maybe this flight attendant's hobby is fitness? After all, for their profession, body management should still be very important..." Lin Qiming was still trying to excuse the other party in his heart... Although he has already realized the problem, he still hopes that this Everything is just my own illusion...

Otherwise, the fun would be great.

"Mr. Lin...I'm working." The stewardess frowned slightly, calmly avoiding Lin Qiming's "salty tricks", and took a step back.

"At least let me know your name?" Lin Qiming continued to ask "cheek-skinned".

"...Helen." The stewardess said reluctantly.

"Helen...good name, do you know the Trojan War in the ancient Greek legend? It broke out between the two countries for a peerless beauty named 'Helen'." Lin Qiming said.

He has almost no experience in picking up girls, and his communication with the opposite sex is limited to work... Fortunately, he likes to read in his spare time, and he has a little bit of ink in his stomach, so he won't be exposed all at once.

"Sorry... I haven't heard of this story." The stewardess "Helen" shook her head, showing a lack of interest.

"Ah... this is a little... a little embarrassing." Lin Qiming laughed dryly, he had already obtained the key information, and it was time to step back, "Okay then, may I ask Miss Helen, which direction is the bathroom in? ?”

"Walk across the corridor to the end and turn right."

"Thank you."

Lin Qiming nodded, then turned around and walked quickly towards the tail of the aircraft—he walked very quickly, just to act out the scene of failing to strike up a conversation and wanting to escape this embarrassing situation quickly.And when he passed by his seat, he copied it and put a briefcase in his arms.

"The other party probably didn't notice the abnormality..." Lin Qiming thought to himself, flashed into the bathroom in three steps, turned around and locked the door behind him.

He first checked to see if there was a camera installed in the bathroom. After making sure that he was not under surveillance, he immediately took out a multi-tool knife from his briefcase and moved it to the side of the porthole.

The glass used for the portholes of this kind of transport aircraft is custom-made, and each porthole glass has a unique serial number, which corresponds to the aircraft that uses it. As long as he can find this serial number, Lin Qiming can find out what he wants to know. s things.

Although this Hercules transport plane is the private property of the Yip Consortium, since it can enter and leave the airport of the Ark, it must have been registered with the relevant department.

Then, there must be information about the plane and its crew in the archives.

Lin Qiming took out a screwdriver from the tool knife, inserted it into the gap of the air-tight rubber strip on the edge of the porthole, and gently pried it.

Soon, the airtight strip that was attached to the glass was pried away, revealing a row of characters engraved on the edge of the porthole glass.

Types of glass, specifications and standards, manufacturers... Connect the initials of these pieces of information together, plus the production batch number of this piece of glass, and this is the unique serial number.Lin Qiming immediately turned on the electronic device he was carrying, and entered the serial number into it.

The search results came out quickly. This piece of special glass was indeed supplied to the Yip Consortium's transport aircraft production line, and was assembled on a Hercules transport aircraft numbered "A-136".

Lin Qiming couldn't help blaming himself a little. If he had paid attention to the serial number printed on the fuselage when he boarded the plane, so many steps before this could be saved, at least 5 minutes of time could be saved.

Blaming himself, he didn't stop. After locking the model and serial number of the plane, he immediately called up the crew list of the plane-the whole list has more than 100 people in total. The crew adopted a three-shift rotation mechanism, but the specific rotation sequence was not stated in the information.

But fortunately, there is only one female flight attendant named "Helen" in the entire list, who belongs to Class B and is a first-class flight attendant.

So far, there is no problem with Helen's identity, but when Lin Qiming clicked on the details, his face immediately changed.

The photo of Helen in the information does not match the "Helen" outside just now!

The Helen in the photo, although she is also a beauty, is a Hispanic woman with a wheat complexion... But the person Lin Qiming struck up a conversation with just now was a blond, fair-skinned, authentic Caucasian!

If it is because of makeup or plastic surgery that the appearance is different from the photo, it can barely be explained, but even the race has changed, it is obvious - the "Helen" outside, and this crew list Helen in the movie is not alone at all!

Lin Qiming's breathing became a little short. He turned his head and glanced at the locked door, and then took out two miniature silencers from the interlayer of the briefcase, which were about the same length and thickness as his little finger, and put them on the gun.

Afterwards, he continued to look through the files of other crew members in Class B...

Most of the crew members are good-looking young women, but the stewardesses who Lin Qiming has an impression of in the cabin outside are not in this list...

He quickly looked through the list of Class B, and then he roughly looked through the personnel files of Class A and Class C.

He is now basically sure that almost all the crew members on this plane have been replaced by someone... As for the identity of this group of people now, it is completely a mystery.

"I knew I would go get a pair of AR smart glasses..." Lin Qiming secretly said in his heart, if there is such a thing, he doesn't even need to stare at the other person, as long as the person's face appears in the field of vision for a few seconds, The AI ​​of the glasses will automatically scan the face for recognition and match it with the data in the archive.

But now, he can't put the phone's camera on someone's face, can he?

But no matter what, if it’s not good, good people don’t come... Combined with the other party’s secret change of course... Lin Qiming has already classified all these "crew members" into the "enemy" camp in his heart.

From the current point of view, the target of this group of people should be the research team headed by Dr. Norison - after the "meme incident", Dr. Norison's research team is almost the only complete research team in the entire institute Yes, during that time they happened to be observing the migration paths of the indigenous creatures, so they were able to escape.

If something happened to this group of people in Lin Qiming's hands, then Lin Qiming felt that there was no need for him to live.

"Protect the safety of the researchers, and then take back control of the plane... If possible, keep as many alive as possible." This is the goal Lin Qiming set for himself.

The Crisis Management Section operatives he brought over included himself, a total of nine people, each of whom was a seasoned fighter. If the other party was just an ordinary hijacker, this group of people could easily subdue them.

Currently, the premise is that this group of people is "ordinary hijackers."

Lin Qiming also knew very well that this probability was almost infinitely close to zero.

Although there have always been some opposition organizations hidden in the shadows of the Ark, the most radical of these organizations can't do things like hijacking a plane. If it were them, at most they would be planting bombs in the bathroom of the airport. ... As for sending a group of "professional-level" personnel to replace the entire crew, it is impossible to happen.

This group of hijackers has an obvious purpose... They want to take Dr. Norison's research team to a certain place in the wilderness - the base is in the wilderness, and the selected targets are members of the research institute , the identity of this group of hijackers is almost ready to be revealed.

Lin Qiming took a deep breath, and replaced one of the two pistols with a magazine full of active bullets.

Just when he was about to send the message to other members of the action team, there was a sudden knocking sound outside the bathroom door.

"Mr. Lin? Are you inside, Mr. Lin?" It was the voice of the stewardess "Helen", and Lin Qiming quickly hid the pistol.

"Uh...ah, I'm here, what's the matter?"

"You've been in there for a long time. What's the problem? Is there anything I can do for you?" "Helen" asked again.

Obviously, the other party has noticed the abnormality.

"It's nothing, it's just a little diarrhea." Lin Qiming pressed the flush button of the toilet twice, then turned on the faucet to wet his hands intentionally, and then opened the bathroom door.

However, the moment he opened the door, he knew something bad was going on - "Helen" looked over his shoulder and stayed on the porthole of the bathroom.

Although Lin Qiming has restored the air-tight rubber ring to its original position, the pried marks cannot be restored unless a brand new rubber ring is replaced.

At the moment when the eyes of the two intersected, the eyes said everything.

The stewardess "Helen" didn't hesitate, she reached into her short skirt and pulled out a light gray dagger - this dagger is made of high-strength ceramics, the whole body does not use any metal, and will not be detected by metal detectors. What I found... As for the video security inspection device, in Lin Qiming's impression, when they arrived at Yong'an Port, the video security inspection device at the gate of the airport seemed to be malfunctioning, and several technicians were taking it apart to overhaul it.

Thinking about it now, it was not a malfunction at all, but man-made sabotage!

Lin Qiming blocked "Helen"'s attack with his left hand, and the ceramic dagger sliced ​​through his uniform sleeve, but failed to break through the soft inner lining worn inside the uniform. At the same time, Lin Qiming had already drawn out the pistol at his waist, Put the muzzle of the gun on "Helen"'s abdomen, and pulled the trigger repeatedly!
"Puff puff--"

The muffled sound of bullets shooting into the human body was heard, and the satin skirt was quickly stained dark brown by the blood stained. "Helen" staggered back a few steps, raised her head, and stared at the girl with resentment. With Lin Qiming.

In the next second, a few tiny pink fleshy tentacles came out of her nostrils and ears. She opened her mouth and began to vomit. A large pile of rotting internal organs mixed with blood stains fell on the ground, giving off a stench. The smell of the smell permeated the door of the bathroom in an instant.

Afterwards, more thicker and longer tentacles gushed out of her throat. These tentacles entangled and waved each other, tearing that delicate cherry mouth all the way to the base of her ears.

"really!"

Lin Qiming's heart trembled, but luckily he was prepared, and immediately replaced the weapon in his hand with another gun, and sent three specially made active ammunition into "Helen"'s body.

The active ammunition distributed by the Crisis Management Section is "enhanced" with sixteen times the standard dose. Even if it misses the core, the toxicity contained in three bullets is completely enough to kill a Seed of Corrosion in the cataclysmic stage.

The tentacles protruding from the seven orifices of "Helen" froze, and then began to quickly rot and fester.

Lin Qiming caught the fallen body and dragged it into the bathroom.

The other operatives in the Crisis Management Section are also equipped with active ammunition. It is not difficult for them to kill the Seed of Corrosion, but the difficulty lies in protecting the researchers on the plane and the plane itself at the same time... At this moment, Control of the plane is still in the hands of the hijackers.

The crew has a total of 37 people. If each of these 37 people is a container for the Seed of Corrosion, then the situation is quite tricky.

Especially those flight attendants sitting in the first-class cabin. If they couldn't kill the remaining six flight attendants at the same time before they realized the crisis, those researchers who were helpless would be in danger.
