Chapter 1413 I Want to Leave
Twenty-four hours and twenty-four seconds after the time agreed with Ivan, Yang Yi's phone rang.
Yang Yi looked at the phone and shook his head. Then he answered the call and immediately nodded heavily, indicating that the call was from Ivan.
Porter let out a long sigh of relief, and everyone's expressions in the small conference room became solemn.
"Hello, Mr. Ivan."
"Hello, Poseidon, I am a man of my word, right?"
"I never doubted that, Mr. Ivan."
"Outside of Baltimore, at the intersection of Route 99 and Route 32, go look for it, I'm sure you can find it, that's it."
Ivan hung up the phone, and Yang Yi raised his head and said with an extremely ugly face: "Outside of Baltimore, the intersection of Highway 99 and Highway 32 is obvious."
In a short period of time, the atmosphere froze in just a few seconds. To put it bluntly, it was as quiet as death.
Why? Because Baltimore is just north of Washington, D.C., very close, very, very close. In other words, a nuclear bomb is hidden next to the capital of the United States.
Besides, who knows where the nuclear bombs were transported from?
After a brief silence of more than ten seconds, a person shouted: "It's right here."
On the projector screen on the wall, a location was marked. Well, it was about a hundred kilometers away from the capital.
Porter waved his hand and said: "Let's take action. You go first and notify the FBI when we get there."
The operation is to be carried out jointly with the FBI. This is an order personally given by the president, and the FBI has also mobilized its elite troops and is preparing to cooperate with the CIA.
However, joint operations are joint operations, but this nuclear bomb must be discovered and controlled by the CIA first, so there can be some fuss about time.
Yang Yi didn't say anything, and of course it wasn't his turn to say anything.
A dozen people quickly walked out of the conference room, and then they boarded the helicopter that was ready to take off at any time.
Two helicopters rose from the ground.
No one knows where the nuclear bomb will appear. It might be New York, it might be Los Angeles, or of course it might be near Washington. So not only are helicopters ready, but planes specially designed to transport Yang Yi and the others are also on standby. Nowadays, long-distance flying aircraft are definitely no longer needed. Helicopters can just fly over.
No one can guarantee that the matter will be over before seeing the nuclear bomb.
The helicopter quickly flew over the place Ivan said.
Yang Yi is the liaison, but he is not the commander, because the commander is now Walter. Obviously, after Yang Yi has completed his duties, his status is not enough to command this operation.
Walter said on the intercom: "Turn on the searchlight and observe if there are any abnormalities on the ground."
The searchlight was turned on and soon spotted a pickup truck in the farmland at the corner of the intersection of the two roads.
"Look at that car?"
After Yang Yi pointed, Walter immediately said: "Land further away and block the road."
The helicopter landed, and a dozen people quickly set up roadblocks on nearby roads to prevent cars from passing by and approaching. Then, the helicopter landed on the road.
Under the protection of four special forces soldiers, Yang Yi, Walter and a nuclear weapons expert quickly ran towards the pickup truck.
The back half of the pickup truck was covered with canvas. Yang Yi immediately climbed into the back compartment of the pickup truck and opened the canvas, revealing a wooden box inside. Walter waved his hand and said: "Open it!"
Walter shouted to the four soldiers beside him: "You can leave here!"
"Sir! We..."
"Get out of here, it's none of your business here."
The four soldiers immediately turned around and left, and then Yang Yifang lowered the tailgate of the pickup truck. Walter and the nuclear weapons expert immediately climbed into the car.
Yang Yi nodded, and then he opened the wooden box directly.
There was a bracket in the wooden box, and there was a cone-shaped object painted white on the bracket. The nuclear weapons expert just glanced at it without using the Geiger counter he carried with him, and immediately said: "Repaint it, I It is believed that it was disguised as something to cover up its original shape. This is a nuclear warhead that can be installed on SS-19 and SS-24 intercontinental ballistic missiles, with a yield of one million tons."
Walter whispered: "Megaton?"
"Yes, megaton level. This is a nuclear warhead on a strategic intercontinental missile... As for whether it is a live warhead or a dead warhead, I need to conduct careful verification before I can confirm it."
Live warheads are warheads that can be detonated, while dead warheads refer to warheads that cannot be detonated.
This is not a movie, so there is no watch that shows time, but a countdown that often detonates with only a few hours left. You have to check whether it can detonate.
Nuclear weapons experts are experts in nuclear weapons, but their eyesight or observation ability may not be good.
Yang Yi whispered: "No need to check, it's a live warhead, because they left the detonator for us."
Of course, the detonation of a nuclear bomb is not that simple. In order to prevent nuclear accidents such as accidental firing and explosion, the detonation of a nuclear bomb is very complicated. Even if an ordinary person picks up a nuclear warhead, he will not be able to detonate it.
But a nuclear warhead with a complete detonation controller is naturally a live warhead, right?
Yang Yi pointed to a small box next to him and whispered: "This is the nuclear button."
Before the box was opened, the nuclear weapons expert immediately opened the box. Then he looked at a box inside that was neither exquisite nor high-tech. He sighed and said in a low voice: "Yes, this is the nuclear button, the detonator." , nuclear trigger, call it whatever you want, but this nuclear bomb can indeed be detonated. I don’t know if a password is required, because the password may be built-in and can be detonated by pressing it, or it may require a temporary password to be detonated. I Check to see if there is a place to enter a password, if so..."
"Wait, that's enough."
Walter stopped the nuclear weapons expert, and then he said with a gloomy face: "That's enough, the research work can be carried out slowly when you go back. Now your work here is over."
The nuclear weapons expert nodded, but then he whispered: "You need to pay a lot of attention when moving nuclear weapons."
"Someone clearly didn't care about safety when they brought this thing here."
The nuclear weapons expert continued: "I need to measure the radiation level, which will be very helpful for our next search. You two, I advise you to stay away, if you understand the dangers of nuclear radiation."
Walter twitched his face and said helplessly: "No one can get close to here now, because this damn nuclear bomb has a detonator! Sir, please leave here, the research work can only wait until later."
After finishing speaking, Walter looked at Poseidon with a look of helplessness and said: "You can leave too. The security here has reached the highest level. Notify the FBI to come over. Also, don't forget to notify our commander to call someone to replace me. I I don’t want to be standing next to a nuclear bomb!”
I feel confused during the day, and my thoughts are like diarrhea at night. What should I do? I am also desperate...
