Chapter 1136 Ready
With his right arm still hanging around his neck, Chief Womack glared back unyieldingly.
When he was in the hotel before, Mason took out the plastic rope for the shower curtain and hid it under his clothes while taking a shower.
Then he called room service and ordered a large table of delicious food, attracting the attention of the lazy agents around the chief. He used the excuse of needing some fresh air and proposed to go to the balcony to get a haircut while basking in the sun after the barber arrived.
The uneasy chief personally supervised, and after a few words, he took the initiative to shake hands with Mason, thinking that he had reached an agreement.
Mason took the opportunity to put the rope with a sailor knot tied in advance on Chief Womack's arm, and then threw him out of the balcony.
Then happened the scene that Jack saw when he rushed to the hotel with Mason's daughter.
The two agents who were protecting the chief rushed to rescue him, and Mason fled before the agents who were enjoying the food in the room rushed out, but was stopped at the hotel entrance.
To be honest, Jack felt that it was not unfair for his chief to be thrown off the balcony.
Unlike Rossi, this guy really treated Mason as a fool and wanted to throw him back to jail after using him, at least that was the case in the original plot.
As for Jack protecting Mason's daughter, he really protected her. After he explained the lethality of the VX missile, Mason obviously understood it.
Taking the pipeline blueprint from Jason Hayes, Jack frowned and looked at it for a long time without understanding it. He asked in confusion, "The end of the pipeline should be a reservoir connected to the sewage treatment system, but how far is the distance in between?"
Not only was the length of this section of the pipeline not marked on the drawing, but it was also drawn as a zigzag dotted line as a hint.
"Uh" Mason frowned and thought for a moment before giving the answer, "57 steps."
Jack and Jason Hayes looked at each other and nodded slightly to the latter. This answer just confirmed what Mason said before.
If he really escaped from Alcatraz through this pipeline, he could only move at low tide, and in the dark, he could only measure with steps.
"So how should we go next?" Jason asked.
The sewage treatment system is located next to the abandoned factory, nearly 300 meters away from the central high prison building, and the FBI only has a bunch of pipeline maps that are not very accurate.
These sewage pipelines are built based on the ancient gold mine tunnels with a longer history. Let alone the drawings, no one knows the specific situation except Mason who has walked around inside.
Mason looked at the pipeline drawings over and over again, and frowned like Jack, "What a good question, I have no idea at all."
"Don't play tricks, you old bastard." Chief Womack immediately had a bad premonition.
Mason gave him a fake smile, "I'm serious, I have to go in to know."
"Don't even think about it, draw the route on the drawing." Chief Womack shook his head like a rattle.
"I can't do it. It's been almost 30 years. Think about it with your idiot brain. I groped in the dark underground for three days before I escaped through the drain at low tide.
You want me to draw a route on this pile of waste paper now? How can I do it? I have to go back there to remember how to go."
Although the old man's expression was very sincere, Chief Womack had no intention of buying it. "Don't even think about going anywhere. I know you're playing tricks again, old bastard."
At this time, Rossi, who had been listening silently, finally spoke, "Jim, we have no choice. He is our only hope."
"No, he can only point the way, not follow." Chief Womack raised his voice.
Jason Hayes glanced at Jack and saw him nod slightly, and he also echoed, "If he is the only one who knows the actual situation below, it is best for him to lead the way himself."
"This British guy will kill you, and then he will take the opportunity to escape." Chief Womack's forehead was bulging with veins, and even the blood vessels in his neck bulged.
"He won't, sir." Jack's words attracted the director's angry glare, but he still explained in a slow and steady tone.
"If the operation fails, the incendiary bombs dropped by the military will cover the entire island and continue to burn for a long time. Even if you hide underground and don't get roasted, you will suffocate because of the large amount of oxygen consumed."
Seeing that the others agreed, Director Womack didn't know what reason to use to continue to object.
"It looks like you have no choice, Womack." Mason grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to care about you, is your arm okay?"
Seeing that his director was trembling with anger, Jack quickly changed the subject and shouted to Dr. Stanley Goosby, who was studying the real-time images of the drone.
"Dr. Goosby, have you found the storage location of those missiles?"
"Ah? What?" It can only be said that as a professional, Goosby has been immersed in his own world and has no idea of the strong smell of gunpowder behind him.
"I asked where the VX missiles were stored. If we can solve this biggest hidden danger, we can take the initiative." Jason Hayes added an explanation.
"Yes, of course." Gusby came back to his senses and drew a circle on a satellite map.
"You said that General Hammer's men are all professional special operations soldiers, so they must know that the best way to preserve VX poison is cryogenic refrigeration.
Thermal imaging shows that the generators in the prison morgue have been reactivated, so I assume those missiles are stored there. As for the launchers, I only found one on the lighthouse and one that must have been hidden. . "
As he spoke, he pasted the two drawings on the whiteboard, picked up a laser pointer, and got ready to explain.
"This is the structural diagram of the VX missile. I have studied it and understood it. Please gather your team members and I will teach you how to remove the missile fuse and prevent poisoning."
"No need." Jason Hayes shook his head, "You will act with us."
It was Jack's suggestion to bring this chemical weapons expert with him. Although Jason and his seals have received professional chemical defense training, they are also experts in bomb disposal.
But after all, this VX missile is a secret weapon that only exists in legends, and among everyone present, only this person has come into contact with a similar object.
In addition, Jack also has some selfish motives. Although with him here, certain tragedies can definitely be avoided, but it is best to gather the two male protagonists of the original drama so that he can feel more at ease.
After all, although this guy has poor marksmanship and has not received any professional agent training, at the climax at the end of the movie, he is a Xiaoqiang who can't even be killed by VX and incendiary bombs.
