While Ye Hao was secretly regretting, a cruel voice came through the broadcast: "Ladies and bricks, welcome aboard the Hell Airplane. That's right! You heard correctly, this plane is heading for hell! In your own words, you've been hijacked."

"Boo hoo~~~" Someone on the plane, mentally fragile, burst into tears upon hearing the cruel announcement.

"Gentlemen! Ladies! Stop crying, because no matter how much you cry, no matter how much money you give us, we will not abandon our original intention of hijacking this plane! Of course! I sincerely hope you can cooperate; otherwise, I'll make sure you bleed out completely on this aircraft," the cruel voice echoed again through the broadcast.

The two pilots in the cockpit received the message from the flight attendant and quickly sent out a distress signal! They hoped that the airline company would find a way to rescue them! Otherwise, hundreds of lives on board would truly be at risk of being destroyed by the hijackers.

Upon receiving the signal, the airline company panicked and quickly requested the state to send a rescue team, hoping the criminals would lay down their knives, regardless of the cost, even if the airline company had to pay! They also ordered the cockpit personnel to make an emergency landing at the nearest airport!

The two pilots looked at the Xiangjiang Airport they had just passed, their eyes slightly reddening, their bodies starting to tremble, worried that the hijackers would force them to fly towards some unknown destination. Now that they had passed Xiangjiang Airport, their only option for a quick landing was to head to Peng City in Nanyue Province.

They could only nervously pilot the plane, praying internally that they could soon enter Peng City in Nanyue Province.

Ye Hao looked through the cockpit door at the six people outside! One of them had gone to the broadcasting room. The present plan was to contact the Ministry of State Security for higher-up instructions, hoping they could give him a clear response—whether to rescue or continue to wait it out! Although Ye Hao could act on his own instincts, the situation had not yet escalated to that extent.

Now, after consulting with higher leadership, deciding what to do would attract no criticism! Ye Hao understood that this was the way of the world; if you did something behind the backs of your superiors and they found out, they would always hold it against you. Of course, not all leaders had this mentality.

But Ye Hao had to stay vigilant! Particularly, having just left Team A, he hadn't yet established his footing in the Ministry of State Security! If he were ostracized by second or third-in-command at the Ministry, he'd have nowhere to go.

With this in mind, Ye Hao walked towards the cockpit and found the sweet stewardess shaking as she looked at him at the cockpit door. He tenderly said, "It's fine for now, just take me in," then whispered to her, "I'm with the Ministry of State Security, I hope you can cooperate with me."

The sweet stewardess, utterly lost on what to do, heard someone claiming to be with the Ministry of State Security and clung to Ye Hao's arm as if finding a lifeline, pitifully choking out, "I'm so scared! You'll save us, won't you?" Her eyes, pitifully gazing at Ye Hao, stirred a hint of reluctance in him.

"It's alright, nothing will happen! But you have to listen to me and cooperate, understand?" Ye Hao gently patted her back, preventing the ordeal from casting a shadow over such a young and beautiful girl.

Lin Ruyu and Su Qing were seated, though anxious about what was to come, as so many were worried, they couldn't be bothered to think further. However, when they saw Ye Hao lightly holding the sweet stewardess, a spark seemed to ignite in their eyes.

Understandably, even though they might not acknowledge Ye Hao as a man, Ye Hao had been with them on this journey for so long. When they saw Ye Hao holding another woman, it naturally invoked a complex and indescribable feeling—a woman's nature.

"Hypocrite, always taking advantage of situations, such a waste of eyesight, letting him hug her all the way," Lin Ruyu's nervousness turned to disgust seeing Ye Hao embrace another woman, finding him despicable, with a look as if her eyes could pop out, fists clenched.

"Exactly, how could Ye Ge do that? He seemed so refined, but to think he's so vile, shameful. I never want to know Ye Ge in the future," Su Qing, also clenching her fists, appeared as if she was ready to eat Ye Hao alive.

After being soothed by Ye Hao, the sweet stewardess seemed to muster some courage, nodded resolutely, "Yes! You are right, evil cannot prevail over good. You are a mysterious person, so quickly, think of a way to save us!" With that, the sweet stewardess held Ye Hao's hand and, in her high heels, led him into the cockpit.

The two pilots saw a strange man enter and were so startled that their hands trembled, asking shakily, "Wh-who are you?"

"Don't be nervous! I'm with the Ministry of State Security, now take out your communication devices, I need to contact higher-ups to stop this hijacking!" Ye Hao got straight to the point, showing no delay. His usually sunny smiling face now wore a grave expression, imposing a sense of pressure to anyone looking at him.

Only after several explanations did they believe Ye Hao was with the Ministry of State Security. Although Ye Hao could forcibly take their communication devices, it would only provoke the two pilots! If they got desperate and tried to sabotage the plane, it could become troublesome.

Ye Hao took the secret contact number Fang Ni had given him and dialed it directly; someone answered promptly on the other end.

Ye Hao knew he had to use a passphrase for the other side to speak, so he said their conversation's secret phrase. Once the passphrase was verified, a gentle voice came through the receiver: "Hello! This is the Ministry of State Security Intelligence Division, you are..."

"I am Ye Hao, immediately get me in touch with Director Fang and tell him there's an attempt to hijack a Southern Airlines flight, we need orders quickly." Upon hearing this, Ye Hao swiftly stated his identity and the situation on the plane.

Upon hearing Ye Hao's voice, Fang Ni instantly panicked and anxiously asked, "Ye Hao, are you okay? What's going on now?"

"Stop wasting time, get in touch with Director Fang immediately." At this moment, racing against the hijackers for time was crucial, and Ye Hao certainly wouldn't waste time with idle talk, instructing Fang Ni to contact Fang Zhongtian directly.

"Alright! I'll patch you through now, be careful." Fang Ni's words had barely ended before she connected him to Fang Zhongtian.

Fang Zhongtian had just put down a distress call from the main office of Southern Airlines, contemplating whether to contact the military to dispatch fighter jets, but the phone rang again. He picked it up and quickly asked, "Who is this, what is the matter, speak quickly..."

"Director Fang, this is Ye Hao. I'm on the Southern Airlines plane, there's a hijacking attempt, what should we do? The passengers are under control, first class is still safe, please give your orders!" Upon hearing Fang Zhongtian's voice, Ye Hao swiftly relayed the situation.

"Hao, this is great, you're actually on this flight?" Fang Zhongtian, seeing Ye Hao leave late, thought he had taken an afternoon flight, but now, knowing Ye Hao was on board, he conceived a new plan.

"How many people are on board, and what weapons, report the most detailed intel to me." Fang Zhongtian quickly asked, not even acknowledging the entry of the second and third in command of the Ministry of State Security, but waiting for Ye Hao on the line to swiftly report on the hijackers.

"There are nine hijackers in total, one of whom I have subdued in first class. The remaining eight hijackers in the passenger cabin are unaware, each armed with an AK47 assault rifle, and any hidden weapons are yet to be discovered." Ye Hao succinctly relayed the key information.

"Director! This is the situation on the Southern Airlines plane? Do we have personnel on board?" Jiang Ming, the second in command of the Ministry of State Security, asked excitedly. Jiang Ming, a veteran, had spent his life in service following Fang Zhongtian for decades and was now white-haired, with his trembling hands betraying his excitement.

How could he not be excited? According to the latest intel, there are dozens of wealthy scions on this flight, including the renowned tycoon Lin Tian's daughter Lin Ruyu from Peng City, and the provincial head's daughter Su Qing from Nanyue Province. If anything were to happen to this flight, it would be the Ministry of State Security's utmost responsibility.

"Yes, the situation hasn't deteriorated to murder yet, but we must quickly devise a solution, whether to have Ye Hao negotiate or rescue people secretly!" Fang Zhongtian directly discussed this over the phone. Although Qin Kong, the third in command of the Ministry of State Security, remained silent, his old face looked at Fang Zhongtian, hoping he could come up with a good solution.

He neither supported nor opposed Fang Zhongtian, as any incident would be Fang Zhongtian's responsibility, but if nothing happened, it would be for the best. Achieving the position of the third in command proved that he wasn't a simple man. Qin Kong, in his early fifties, was at a promising stage for advancement; even if he achieved neither merit nor fault, if Fang Zhongtian stepped down, he would have a chance to move forward! But if he supported Fang Zhongtian's decision to have subordinates rescue people and something major went wrong, he could forget about advancing.

Jiang Ming pondered, stroking his chin, and asked, "Director, is Ye Hao you mentioned the newcomer to the Ministry of State Security? How skilled is he? What weapon does he have?" Jiang Ming also hoped Fang Zhongtian wouldn't make a wrong decision in this urgent matter.

"Second stage in National Martial Arts, and as for weapons, I trust he's acquired one. However, with a hundred people in the passenger cabin, rescuing them is extremely dangerous, yet if we don't, we may face even more severe consequences." Fang Zhongtian frowned, tapping his fingers lightly on the desk.

Ye Hao, holding the communication device, suddenly became resolute, speaking steadily into the receiver, "Director Fang, how about this! I attempt to sneak into the passenger cabin, ensuring everyone's safety to the best of my ability; for now, this might be the only solution! Because they've already declared they will hijack the plane no matter how much money they're offered." Ye Hao conveyed the hijackers' broadcast message.

Upon hearing this, Fang Zhongtian's frown deepened into a frown mark, his fingers tapping the table more forcefully, the thumping sound echoing.

After a long moment, Fang Zhongtian seemed to have made a difficult decision and said into the receiver in a deep voice, "Ye Hao, the lives of hundreds on that plane are now in your hands, do not let us down. I've arranged for a team to immediately set out for Peng City Airport to assist, remember, whatever you do, keep in mind that you hold hundreds of lives in your hands."

"Understood!" Ye Hao received the order, decisively hung up the communication device, and his gaze became resolute, too. Elder Fang was right! Now responsible for hundreds of lives, he must save them no matter what.
