“Don’t move unless you want to die!”
“Don’t move!”
“Stop crying!”
The three hijackers moved toward each other after they got their hostages. Meanwhile, the passengers who were still free converged toward the police.
Police rushed forward from three sides, protecting the passengers. At the same time, a group of police quickly divided the passengers into three groups — women and children, older men, and young men — in order to screen for more hijackers.
The chance of a hijacker hiding among women, children, and older men was slim. If there was a hijacker among them, he would be among the young men. Dividing the group was a good way to manage and monitor the crowd of people.
If there was a hijacker among the young men, there’s a risk, but at least they minimized the risk. A young man who was a hijacker would be a lot more dangerous than an older man, a woman, or a child who was a hijacker.
This was the only response they could have given the emergency.
The rest of the police charged forward, surrounding the three hijackers.
“Back off!”
The hijacker who held the little girl had a contorted expression. He held a piece of aluminum against the girl’s neck, shouting, “Car, give us a car!”
The three hijackers realized their plot was foiled. It was impossible to hijack the flight now, so they just wanted to leave the airport using their hostages. As for the money and anything else, they could worry about it after they get away. As long as they had the hostages, they still had a chance.
“Please, let my daughter go!”
One couple didn’t move toward police protection. With frightened expressions, they shouted at the hijackers. The woman actually kneeled down in front of them, “I’m begging you, please let my daughter go. I can give you as much money as you want!”
“Get the car! We won’t hurt her!”
The three hijackers huddled together, facing the police in three directions. They also hid behind their hostages, trying to prevent ambushes.
When it came to protection, Alec Lall was the safest. He didn’t even hide especially hard as he was protected in all directions.
The hijacker with the little girl was most at risk. He lifted her up, using her to protect his own chest and head.
Another hijacker, who held an elderly man, was much huskier. He couldn’t use the skinny old man as a shield, so he just squatted down.
“Please, get them a car!”
Two police officers came out to drag the couple back, but the woman screamed in desperation.
“Ma’am, please trust us!”
The police kept dragging the woman away, not letting go no matter how she struggled. This wasn’t a time for civilians to make a mess.
The man didn’t struggle; he just kept staring at his daughter with a pained expression. He knew this was a situation only the police could handle.
“Don’t be impulsive. We’re getting you a car!”
The police tried to stabilize the hijackers. Before they had total control over the situation, no one dared to act rashly.
The hijacker holding the little girl yelled, “You have one minute! I want to see the car in one minute!” Then he screamed at the little girl, “Stop crying!”
“Don’t be scared.”
Meng Fan turned to look at the angelic-looking girl. He smiled and said, “It’ll be okay, big brother is here.”
Yakli Larl only held a piece of aluminum on Meng Fan’s neck, leaving his hands free. Meng Fan just patted once to put the “invisible hat” on the little girl.
The little girl calmed down instantly. She looked toward Meng Fan with trust.
Meng Fan, however, had almost forgotten about the little girl.
Almost, because the hat could make the girl almost invisible, but the hat itself existed only it was invisible now. Others cannot see the hat, but Meng Fan could.
The hijacker holding the little girl was startled. He loosened his hands and looked down, doubting himself.
The little girl fell onto the ground. She was shocked too as she ran toward her parents.
“What the —”
The hijacker who had the little girl was dumbfounded, so was Alec Lall, who held Meng Fan. He asked, “Where’s your hostage?”
“What?”
The first hijacker looked stunned. Where’s my hostage?
Did I even have a hostage?
Pow!
Just then, Meng Fan turned suddenly, grabbing and twisting Alec Lall’s wrist, making a crisp popping sound. His other hand grabbed the hijacker’s neck and squeezed, turning Yakli Larl’s face beet-colored.
Then, he lifted up Yakli Lark and tossed the man toward the first hijacker.
Not only did Yakli Larl fall onto the hijacker, but so did Meng Fan.
Yakli Larl fell on top of the hijacker, while Meng Fan was on top of Yakli Larl. If this kind of wrestling technique had a name, it should be called Jenga.
Meng Fan was the one on top.
Meng Fan used all of his strength in the throw.
In the past, when he fought with Wu Ji, Meng Fan always controlled his power. This time, he held nothing back.
After Meng Fan landed, he rolled, hitting the two hijackers in the head with his elbow.
Pow pow!
The two hijackers passed out with the huge noises.
Then, Meng Fan kept rolling. Now he had a coin in his hand. Forcefully, his right hand tossed the coin.
Swoosh.
If someone listened carefully, one could hear the loud friction noise the flying coin made in the air.
Splat!
The coin collided with the third hijacker’s hand, which held the wooden peg. The coin, combined with Meng Fan’s strength, made the hijacker let go of the wooden peg.
Meanwhile, another coin flew toward this hijacker, hitting him in the eye.
“Ow!”
The hijacker covered his eye, screaming.
His hostage, the elderly man, used the chance to get away.
Whew!
Meng Fan was relieved. He took out an apple and threw it at the hijacker’s forehead.
The apple cracked into pieces, making the hijacker shake.
Another apple pounded the hijacker.
And another one. This apple had the biggest force behind it, making the hijacker fall backward.
When Meng Fan took out the fourth apple, the hijacker was already on the ground, with the police pointing their guns at the man’s head. The other two hijackers, who had passed out earlier, were also surrounded by police.
Crunch!
Meng Fan bit into the apple. The fruit was hard.
The crunching sound seemed to wake everyone up. However, everyone was still confused as to what had happened.
They’d have believed this was a movie!
“Mom, why don’t you want me anymore?”
“Dad, why don’t you see me?”
Meng Fan heard the crying and forgot it instantly. Then he slapped his head, realizing the invisible hat was still on. He took the hat off the girl.
He saw the angelic-looking little girl again.
Her parents wouldn’t forget their daughter even if she wore the hat. But they couldn’t see her or forgot she was next to them when they did. Their memory of her kept them looking for her.
The little girl thought her parents had abandoned her; she was having a breakdown.
“En’en, don’t be afraid.”
When he took off her hat, Meng Fan remembered the little girl’s words and that her name was En’en. He squatted down and smiled at her, trying to make her calm.
Her parents were shell-shocked as they realized their daughter was right there. She was standing next to that incredible man from earlier.
When they were about to walk over, they saw the man motioning them to stop moving for a minute.
The little girl totally trusted Meng Fan. She seemed to recover somewhat, but she continued to cry. “Big brother, why don’t my parents want me anymore? Why can’t they see me?”
Meng Fan whispered to the girl, “En’en, I used magic on you, so your parents couldn’t see you for a while. Now I took off the magic, so they can. You parents love you very much!”
The little girl, noticing her parents watching her with tears in their eyes, believed Meng Fan’s words. She was amazed. “You know magic! That’s so cool!”
Meng Fan chuckled, “This is our secret; don’t tell other people.”
The girl nodded solemnly.
“Go to your parents.”
“OK.”
The little girl rushed over to her parents, looking back the whole time. When her parents hugged her tightly, she winked at Meng Fan.
