Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

Chapter 267 Yokosuka! (Please subscribe!)
The moment Xu Cang heard the sound of the machine bracket, all the muscles in his body tensed up.Then, he turned his head abruptly, looking back in the direction of the cabin door.The co-pilot looked at Xu Cang apologetically: "I'm sorry, I can't just sit back and watch this happen."

"You will regret it!" Xu Cang looked down, and found that the co-pilot had already turned the door handle of the cabin door, and it was imperative to open the door.

He didn't try to stop anything, in an era where people don't realize what it means to put an uncontrolled person in the cockpit.

Taking advantage of the almost imperceptible gap between opening the door, Xu Cang touched the answering machine on the center console with his left hand.But just when Xu Cang was about to turn the knob of the transponder, the door of the cockpit suddenly opened completely, and then everything outside the cabin was displayed in front of Xu Cang's eyes, and Xu Cang's left hand was withdrawn like lightning.

In Xu Cang's field of vision, just outside the cockpit door, Takashi Kuroda was holding the purser hostage, the point of the knife in his right hand was still touching the purser's neck.However, at this moment, a large amount of blood flowed out from the purser's neck, soaking half of his upper body.At the same time, there was an obvious wound on the neck, like a spring, weakly bleeding out under the rhythm of breathing.

Perhaps because of the excessive bleeding, the purser's face was already pale, and he basically didn't have the strength to resist. His whole body looked weak, and he was relying on his left hand to hold the door frame of the entrance, otherwise he might not even be able to stand steadily.

As the hatch opened, Takashi Kuroda was overjoyed.However, he was stunned when he saw a pilot with three stripes standing at the door, and another one in relatively casual casual clothes sitting in the right seat of the cockpit.

"Really?" Takashi Kuroda glanced at the chief purser who was held hostage by him, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes.

Obviously, Takashi Kuroda misunderstood, he thought Xu Cang was an ordinary passenger, which coincided with what the chief purser said about the experience of flying.

Just now, Takashi Kuroda became furious because he discovered the purser's intentions.Obsessed with flying for many years, Takashi Kuroda knew a lot of knowledge about civil aviation. The moment the flight attendant tricked him into drinking water, Takashi Kuroda came to his senses and realized that the flight attendant dared to lie to him. So the flight attendant The so-called possibility of experiencing flying is naturally not there, and it is just an excuse to stabilize him.

Takashi Kuroda, who was originally stable, couldn't control his emotions all of a sudden, that's why he made such a violent move.

But when the cockpit door opened, everything in front of his eyes seemed to support the words of the flight attendant.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, the result is the same.

Takashi Kuroda pointed to the co-pilot: "Come out."

The co-pilot glanced at the already extremely weak purser, and could only nod: "I see."

After finishing speaking, the co-pilot turned back to the captain and said, "Captain, then I'm going out."

At this moment, the cabin door has been opened, and the captain is already on the verge of riding a tiger. Even if he wants to change his mind, it is impossible, so he can only say nothing, which is regarded as acquiescing.Seeing the captain's reaction, Xu Cang also gave up any thought of stopping it.

In this era, not only ANA, but many other airlines do not have a deep understanding of the dangers of hijacking.It's like the co-pilot decided to open the door after seeing through the cat's eyes that the purser's life was in danger. This is not all the co-pilot's personal thoughts, but is clearly written in the company regulations.

If the lives of people on the plane are threatened, the flight crew can open the cockpit door according to the situation.

It was because of this regulation, and at the same time that the captain agreed to open the cabin door at first, so the first officer ignored Xu Cang's words without hesitation and opened the cockpit door by himself.At this moment, judging by the captain's expression, he may have been shaken, but his attitude is not firm, which means he has lost the last chance to block.

Sure enough, as I remembered about NH61, the criminals still entered the cockpit.

However, Xu Cang keenly noticed that when the co-pilot was about to get out of the cockpit, his eyes changed obviously, from the dazed and fearful at the beginning to firm and resolute.Xu Cang realized something almost immediately, the co-pilot had his own plans.

This co-pilot was obviously not the kind of co-pilot who was flustered and lost his sense of proportion. Although he violated Xu Cang's words, it didn't mean that he didn't plan to do something.

The co-pilot is actually older, in his 30s, and even not much younger than the captain in terms of appearance alone.Even though there are still three stripes, it is estimated that he is not far from the rank of captain. It is precisely because of such qualifications that he can calm down quickly, and even has some plans of his own.

In any case, judging from the current scene, there is only one person hijacking the plane, so the problem is actually simple, as long as the person in front of him is controlled, all problems will be solved.

Even though this co-pilot is engaged in flying, he is keen on fitness and has a strong body. He firmly believes that as long as he is caught by surprise, he will definitely have a chance to defeat the enemy with one blow.And at the moment when he got out of the cockpit, he could move forward to the close side of Takashi Kuroda in a logical way, so the success rate was even greater.

Kuroda, however, may be on guard.When the co-pilot came out of the cockpit and was the closest to him, he suddenly pushed the purser, who was close to losing consciousness, onto the co-pilot.The co-pilot thought about Kuroda Takashi's many reactions, but he really didn't expect Kuroda Takashi to have such a trick.

Caught off guard, the co-pilot had no choice but to catch the purser. Taking advantage of this gap, Takashi Kuroda squeezed into the cockpit, and then directly locked the cockpit door again.

From the time when the co-pilot opened the door to when Takashi Kuroda pushed the purser to the co-pilot, and finally when Takashi Kuroda took the opportunity to enter the cockpit, it was just that in the blink of an eye, outsiders hadn't reacted, everything was already settled.

Looking at the closed cockpit door, the co-pilot sighed slightly. He glanced at the first-class flight attendant standing next to the seat, and shouted: "Get the emergency medical kit."

There are some first aid kits on the plane, some of which can be used by the crew, and some of which can only be used by specialized doctors.The co-pilot knew something about it. After all, although it was something in the cabin, when receiving relevant emergency survival training, the ground instructor would also teach the content, so he remembered some of it.

If he remembered correctly, there were bandages and other hemostatic supplies in the emergency medical kit on the plane.Among other things, at least the purser should stop the bleeding from the neck wound.Although the aorta was not injured, if the flow continues like this, people will always go into shock, and their lives will be in danger at that time.

Perhaps because Takashi Kuroda had already entered the cockpit, the fear of the first-class flight attendants was not so direct and oppressive, and she regained a little ability to think.After hearing the instructions from the co-pilot, he hurriedly searched for the emergency medical kit on the first-class luggage rack.

The emergency medical kit is in the front row of the luggage rack, so it is quite convenient to find.

The first-class flight attendant directly took down the emergency medical kit. At this moment, the co-pilot had helped the flight attendant onto the first-class seat, and at the same time lowered the back of the seat so that the flight attendant could lie down as much as possible.The co-pilot had some experience. He just asked the purser to lie down slightly, but not to the point of lying flat.

Now the purser is a little confused. If he is lying completely flat, the base of the tongue may fall back and block the trachea.When a person is awake, if he feels suffocation, he can react immediately, at least to remind others.But now the purser is on the verge of coma. If the back of her tongue blocks her trachea and she cannot breathe, she may not be able to give feedback at all, or she will enter deep suffocation while unconscious, and may eventually die on the spot. extremely dangerous.

On the side, the first-class flight attendant frantically opened the emergency medical kit and took out a hemostatic bandage, but when she turned to look at her flight attendant, she didn't know what to do.

Yes, flight attendants have undergone simple emergency training.But its level is only limited to simplicity, and training is just training after all, and it has no equivalent relationship with reality.With what method, what angle, and what strength to bandage, after seeing that the purser, who was normal not long ago, was half soaked in blood, everything learned in class began to blur.

"What are you doing, bandaging her up?" the co-pilot shouted lightly.

The co-pilot has also received simple first aid training, but anyway, this training is mainly for the cabin.Therefore, more or less, when the pilots receive this training with the flight attendants, they still have to relax their mentality, which leads to the fact that it is not that the co-pilot does not want to but is not very good at it.

The first-class flight attendants are stagnant due to tremendous mental pressure, either because they can't, or because they don't dare.The psychological quality of the co-pilot is obviously much better. It's not that he doesn't dare to refuse, but he doesn't know how to do it.

Those who would dare not, and those who dared would not, the co-pilot's expression gradually darkened amid such awkward and powerless gazes.Not to mention anything else, the psychological quality of this first-class flight attendant was so bad that he couldn't imagine it.

"Give it to me!" The co-pilot stretched out his right hand and asked the first-class flight attendant for a hemostatic bandage.The purser couldn't wait any longer, so instead of pointlessly confronting him, it's better to let him have a try.

However, at this moment, a clear female voice sounded beside the first-class flight attendant: "Let me do it."

This is an English sentence, not Japanese. Then, Xia Shuyue directly took the hemostatic bandage from the first-class flight attendant, pulled off the bandage at the same time, and began to bandage the flight attendant without any hesitation.

Xia Shuyue learned some Japanese in advance because she was going to come to ANA for training.However, language is something, unless it is a true genius, it has to be accumulated slowly over time.Xia Shuyue can understand some very simple Japanese, but it is really difficult for her to communicate in Japanese.

Fortunately, Xia Shuyue has a good foundation in English, and there are basically no obstacles in expressing in English.For a big company like All Nippon Airways, the proportion of international routes is relatively high, and the crew members must be exposed to English more or less, so there is no problem in understanding Xia Shuyue's words.

It's just that compared to Xia Shuyue's language, the co-pilot is obviously more curious about Xia Shuyue's identity.

"Are you a doctor?" Seeing Xia Shuyue's skillful bandaging movements, the co-pilot first attributed Xia Shuyue to an enthusiastic passenger, and his occupation should be a medical practitioner.

Xia Shuyue stared at the dressing place intently. She didn't use too much force, otherwise she might tighten the neck of the purser. The purser did not lose blood and die, but was about to suffocate.

"No, I came to your company for training." Xia Shuyue went around a few times and felt that it was almost done. She turned her head and said to the first-class flight attendant: "Go to the passenger radio and look for a doctor."

In any case, she can only do simple emergency rescue.She didn't dare to use the many things in the emergency medical kit alone. She could only turn to passengers with medical backgrounds. At this moment, it is necessary to broadcast the passenger broadcast and find a doctor on the plane.

The first-class flight attendant reacted for a while, then remembered that there is still a way for passengers to broadcast to find a doctor, and hurried to the front cabin workshop to broadcast.

"You came to our company for training?" The co-pilot was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized: "Are you with Mr. Xu?"

At this time, Xia Shuyue had already stood up straight, and she glanced at the cockpit door: "Can you open the door?"

"It can't be opened." The co-pilot shook his head: "This door used to have a key, which was kept by the chief purser outside. But not long ago, the company replaced all the cabin doors with an electronic locking system, and the key is useless. .”

"Break it?" At this time, a male passenger in the first class asked.

He witnessed the whole process of Takashi Kuroda hijacking the flight attendant, injuring someone, and then forcibly entering the cockpit.No matter from which angle, Takashi Kuroda is completely crazy.With such a lunatic in the cockpit, he is 1 worried.

"No!" The co-pilot directly rejected the proposal: "The cockpit door is made of six steel bars as the latch. Not to mention that we don't have tools now, even if we have a special tool to open the door, we can't open it for a while."

As the hub of the aircraft, the cockpit is the safety of the entire aircraft. No matter how many safety protection measures are invested, it is understandable.However, at this time, the hatch has become a natural moat to protect the criminals, and the cabin and the cockpit are tightly isolated on both sides, which is extremely ironic.

"Then what should I do? I saw that the man had a knife."

"Yeah, is there really no problem for that kind of person to go into the cockpit?"

"How could you put people in just now?"

At this time, people who leaned out from the economy class and cast curious eyes on the front cabin began to express their worries after discovering that Takashi Kuroda had entered the cockpit. Disturbing, very noisy.

Just now, no one stopped Takashi Kuroda when he showed his knife, no one stopped him when he hijacked the purser, and no one stopped him when he shot someone to hurt someone, but now he is complaining about the flight crew.

Suddenly, the announcement of the first-class flight attendant looking for a doctor sounded in the cabin.This time, no matter how unresponsive the passengers in the middle and rear were, they knew that something had happened ahead, and some bold ones had already stood up and walked along the aisle.

For a while, a large number of passengers who were originally in the middle and rear began to crowd forward like a tide.The co-pilot who was still in the first-class cabin looked up and saw many people rushing forward, his expression changed drastically, and he didn't care about the purser, he hurried to the entrance of the economy class and shouted: "Don't run forward, Please return to your original seat immediately."

However, some passengers who came from behind still passed through the human barrier, and first saw the purser lying in the first-class cabin, half of his body was already stained with blood.Not everyone is the kind of person who doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, and some timid ones screamed when they saw such a bloody scene: "Killed, killed!"

With just such a voice, many passengers who were sitting quietly in their seats were startled, and the cabin fell into chaos in an instant.

And in the cockpit at this moment, from the moment Takashi Kuroda entered the cockpit, the entire cockpit suddenly fell into an extremely strange silence.The captain did not speak, Xu Cang did not speak, and Kuroda Takashi did not speak.

In that small space, apart from the sound of the engine, it seemed that even the breathing of other people could be heard clearly.

This eerie silence didn't last long, and finally Takashi Kuroda spoke up: "Are you also a flying enthusiast? Which forum?"

This sentence was aimed at Xu Cang, but Xu Cang was not a flying enthusiast at all, but the casual clothes in this body were a little confusing.However, Xu Cang's reaction was quick, and he directly took Kuroda Takashi's words: "I didn't participate in any forum, I just simply like flying."

"Well, not bad." Takashi Kuroda's face turned pale, for some reason, Takashi Kuroda developed an extremely uncontrollable desire to express himself to people who like him as much as himself.

Takashi Kuroda looked at the navigation page of getting off the plane, and was silent for a long time. During this period, Xu Cang took a sneak look at Takashi Kuroda, and found that he was really thinking.In other words, Takashi Kuroda seems to be able to understand the display of the navigation page of the 737, which shows that Takashi Kuroda has a certain amount of flying knowledge.

Combined with his question of whether he is a flying enthusiast just now, it is basically possible to determine where Takashi Kuroda's knowledge of aircraft comes from.

If this is the case, the situation seems to be worse than expected.

During this period, Xu Cang glanced at the fuel gauge, then looked at the fuel flow display, and calculated in his mind that the plane could fly for less than two hours.This seems to be quite a lot of fuel, but in fact, this is after taking into account the remaining fuel for the voyage, the fuel at the alternate landing site, and the reserve fuel for the final circling. In fact, the extra fuel dispatched for this flight is not many.

In fact, it is normal. The weather in Osaka and Tokyo is very good. There is no possibility of hovering and waiting. Naturally, there is no need to load too much extra oil.However, this is not good news for the current situation.

If the remaining oil volume of these two hours is removed from the necessary operating oil volume, in fact, there will not be much time left to deal with Takashi Kuroda.Moreover, observing fuel reserves is also a necessary step in dealing with hijacking.

If at this point in time, Takashi Kuroda proposes to go to a remote regional airport, then the fuel reserve is actually quite unsafe, and even going to Hokkaido in Japan is already quite reluctant.

"What to do, what to do?" Xu Cang was thinking quickly in his mind, and every word Takashi Kuroda said next would determine the life and death of the people who followed the entire plane.The most important thing is that neither the captain nor Xu Cang know what Takashi Kuroda's appeal is. If it is impossible or difficult to achieve, then letting him enter the cockpit will be a disaster decision.

After looking at the navigation page for a while, Takashi Kuroda still didn't speak, which made the captain very anxious. In the end, he couldn't hold back and spoke first: "Sir, what do you think now?"

"Fly to 350." Takashi Kuroda said suddenly.

"Course 350?" The captain was stunned for a moment. He didn't see Takashi Kuroda's expression on the navigation page just now, but it was the expression of heading 350 that made the captain realize that the hijacker probably knew some flying knowledge.

Under such circumstances, many things will not be easy to unfold, at least not to fool Kuroda Takashi casually.

The captain immediately said: "Sir, we are on the route now. If we fly towards 350, we will deviate from the route and may conflict with other aircraft."

"Stop talking nonsense! Heading 350." Takashi Kuroda took a step forward, resting his left hand on the captain's seat, his right hand clenched the knife, and the tip of the knife rested on the captain's throat, just like he did to the flight attendant just now.

At this moment, the captain finally realized the pressure of the previous flight attendant.The great fear based on the instinct of animals to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages almost overwhelmed the captain. No one is not afraid of death. prevent its birth.

During this time, the captain couldn't help secretly hating that he hadn't informed the controller of the hijacking just now, even if he called up the corresponding hijacking code on the answering machine.However, all this happened so quickly that the captain didn't even react, and Takashi Kuroda had already entered the cockpit.

In fact, Xu Cang came to his senses. He tried to change the code of the answering machine, but finally gave up because of lack of time.

Once Takashi Kuroda entered the cockpit, everything changed.Although Takashi Kuroda is well aware of his actions, it doesn't mean that he can allow the captain to tell outsiders about his actions at the moment, at least for him, how long he can hide it.

But from the captain's point of view, it would be a very dangerous move to leave the flight path without the control being prepared without notifying the current status of the aircraft at all.You know, it has now entered the Tokyo control area, which is the busiest airspace in the country. If it flies randomly, it will cause big problems.

However, Takashi Kuroda, who had just seen blood, couldn't control this.I saw his expression became more ferocious, and the tip of the knife seemed to be piercing into the skin of the captain's neck.

At this moment, Xu Cang suddenly shouted: "Listen to him."

The captain was stunned, feeling the sharp edge near his neck that could bring death at any time. Under Xu Cang's persuasion, he gritted his teeth and switched the roll mode from horizontal navigation to course selection, and at the same time followed Kuroda Takashi's instructions. Instructions, set course to 350.

Seeing that the captain listened to his words, Ryuji Kuroda slightly removed the knife from the captain's neck.He glanced at Xu Cang, wondering why the captain could obey an ordinary passenger so much, but this question only lasted for a while.

No matter who Xu Cang was, no matter why the captain listened to Xu Cang's words, anyway, the two people present were unarmed, and the cockpit door was closed tightly, everything was still under his control.

However, shortly after the plane deviated from the route, the loudspeaker in the cockpit rang the voice of the Tokyo area control: "ANA45, you have deviated from the route, now turn left and go back to the original route at 300."

NH is the IATA two-letter code of All Nippon Airways, and ANA is the commonly used ICAO three-letter code. In daily radio communication, the three-letter code is basically used.

"No matter, continue to keep heading 350." As the controller's voice fell, Kuroda Takashi said coldly: "If you want to live, keep heading. As long as you dare to turn, don't blame me."

In such a situation, the captain could feel Takashi Kuroda's killing intent, he had no choice but to keep heading, completely ignoring the Tokyo area control.

"ANA45, please return to the route immediately!"

However, the captain ignored the controller's instructions, and in the following time, the controller's calls became more and more urgent.The captain could clearly feel the controller's anxiety.

Soon, he also understood why the controller was so anxious.

Not for anything else, because heading 350 is facing Yokosuka!Right in front of the plane is a military restricted zone!
