Even though Long Zhan had made everything as fast as possible, after all, the distance between the two places was more than 3,000 kilometers, and the flight wouldn't just take off if Long Zhan wanted to leave.
When Long Zhan arrived at St. Drew Middle School, eight hours had passed since the incident.
Because the incident unfolded too quickly, and such a terrorist hijacking had not occurred for a long time, the social response was very severe.
Tucker's full-time driver and bodyguard, Cook, has very good driving skills.
Still nearly 2 kilometers away from school, I was stuck on the road and couldn't move even one meter forward. All the roads were filled with cars going to school.
Some of these cars are journalists and media, some are self-media people who want to join in the hot topic, and some are family members, relatives and friends who were held hostage.
Of course, there are also a large number of people who eat melons, driven by the human instinct of curiosity.
Everyone is very anxious and rushing here.
The road was quickly blocked, and the blockage became longer and longer as time went by.
Traffic to Shengdu Road Middle School has been paralyzed. Only a green lane opened by the police, which is specifically for police and special police personnel, is still open to quickly reach the scene.
Originally, the car Long Zhan was riding in was not eligible to leave. After all, Long Zhan was not an official.
This is where the benefits of having a relationship emerge.
Long Zhan called Director Hunter and told him that he had come all the way to help and hoped to help with the rescue operation.
If someone else jumped out and offered help, Director Hunter would most likely hang up the phone.
I thought to myself: "What a fool!"
But it was Long Zhan who called, and Director Hunter's reaction was completely different.
He immediately expressed his heartfelt welcome and asked Long Zhan to keep the phone on the green line of the police officer, and asked him to drive Long Zhan all the way inside.
The reason why Long Zhan can receive such treatment lies in Long Zhan's identity and strength.
Last time the Salt Lake City Police Department organized a group to go to the Titan headquarters, the two parties had a friendly discussion on cooperation, and in the end Titan won with a big advantage.
Among them, Long Zhan, who was so strong and unforgettable and whose personal strength was astonishing, was particularly outstanding in the competition.
Director Hunter was greatly shocked at the time.
In addition, among Long Zhan's positions in Titan Company, there is a very gimmick "Chief Instructor", which makes people think that he is very powerful.
He can be the chief instructor of a private military company, and no one will believe him even if you say he can't do it.
Long Zhan relied on his personal connections to gain privileges and was able to navigate the heavily congested road without any hindrance, making other people stuck in the road envious.
It was already so jammed on the way here, and it was even more exaggerated when we arrived at the school gate.
In order to prevent accidents, the Salt Lake City police sealed off the entire school even though terrorists gathered in the gymnasium.
Relatives and family members of the trapped persons are not allowed to enter the campus at this time.
The people at the scene did not understand this behavior, especially the family members of the trapped bastards, who were very excited and wanted to overturn the explosion-proof human wall and rush in.
But in the end, their rationality took control of them, and they chose to wait for the news at the school gate.
The American police are notoriously "peace-loving" and will empty a magazine at every turn. This kind of deterrence is more effective than ten thousand words of persuasion.
Still relying on the advantage of taking the Green Road, Long Zhan's car passed through the cordon and entered the campus smoothly.
It was quiet as soon as I entered the school. There was no one on the campus road. It was deserted, but the atmosphere became even more depressing.
The blessing of the atmosphere came from the sky, as several helicopters flew over and over.
There are police helicopters and news helicopters.
Occasionally, I encounter people in police uniforms on the road. Everyone's face is very serious, and their walking steps come and go in a hurry.
Under the joint rendering of this open space, it is difficult not to feel depressed.
If the level of depression along this road can only be considered moderate, then when you get closer to the stadium, it suddenly reaches its peak.
The gymnasium is an oval-shaped building, with the longest part exceeding 100 meters.
On the periphery is a three- to four-meter-wide leisure walkway, which isolates the gymnasium and surrounding outdoor stadiums from other buildings.
In the past, this path was a place for teachers and students to walk, and it was also the main passage in and out of the gymnasium.
The entire stadium is now surrounded by police cordons, and the road is filled with various police cars. Countless police officers use police cars as cover to surround the entire stadium.
There was also a cordon outside the police and a large number of news media reporters outside.
All kinds of guns and cannons were aimed at the stadium, and the anchors were holding microphones and talking live, conveying the latest situation as soon as possible.
Long Zhan's car was blocked at the outermost perimeter, and outside vehicles were not allowed to enter the scene of the incident.
You can only park in the designated parking area outside according to the instructions of the cars that are allowed to enter the news media.
Long Zhan had a relationship with Director Hunter and successfully entered the scene after parking the car.
Finally, under the leadership of an on-site police officer, they arrived at a temporary command center about 100 meters east of the stadium.
A comprehensive command center was specially established to deal with this terrorist attack.
Not only were two comprehensive command vehicles like large container trucks parked, but a command post covering an area of several hundred square meters was set up with tents.
There was an endless stream of people coming in and out.
Long Zhan walked in and glanced around, seeing all kinds of people.
There are senior police officers in police uniforms, government officials in casual clothes and official accents, and various professionals.
Long Zhan even saw the HRT personnel with the strongest combat capabilities under the FBI.
As the highest-level SWAT unit among the FBI's various tactical teams, its personnel are fully trained by the "Delta" and "Seal" Team 6 special forces. They are the "elite of the elite" and are best at hostage rescue.
Long Zhan is not surprised at all that HRT will appear in this place.
"Long Gibran, the chief military training instructor of Titan Company, retired from the T1 level special forces, came here specifically to assist us in the rescue work."
Director Hunter briefly introduced the Halong War. Seeing that everyone still didn't understand it, he added: "The formation and training of our Salt Lake City SWAT team was contracted by Titan Company."
After hearing this sentence, everyone reacted and realized that there was a cooperative relationship between the two parties.
Since there is cooperation with each other.
It's only natural that he appears here.
Coupled with Long Zhan's own fierce momentum, nearly two meters tall and weighing more than 300 kilograms, he can suppress people extremely wherever he goes.
The dozen or so senior officials from all walks of life present here did not object to Long Zhan joining.
