Chapter 1227 How Terrible It Is when an Honest Person Goes Crazy
Sweat dripped from the director's forehead. Damn it, Pan Jinlian. If these substations were destroyed, the entire Los Angeles would be plunged into darkness. I don't know how many terrible things would happen tonight.
In the U.S,
A blackout could lead to countless robberies, arson, vandalism, and even riots. There was no precedent for this. Thinking of that, the director felt chills all over his body.
"Report to the mayor immediately, contact the National Guard, the FBI, and the Superpower Administration. We need support." The director said loudly.
Just when people were about to move, the lights in the building suddenly flickered, and then with a bang, the entire hall was completely plunged into darkness. The next second, the emergency lights came on.
Someone shouted: "Look outside, the power is out."
People quickly looked out the window and saw that the city was plunging into darkness in large areas.
Many people are trembling in their hearts, fearing that the Night Demon King is about to come!
The helicopter quickly flew to the suburbs, and a large substation appeared in front of it. The helicopter rushed directly towards those power facilities without any hesitation.
"Boom!"
The plane plunged into the electrical equipment area, and the huge propeller blades immediately cut the surrounding wires into pieces. The wire interface lit up with huge electric sparks, as bright as fireworks. At this moment, the helicopter hit the tower and was completely shattered. , a gasoline leak caused an explosion.
A huge fireball shot into the sky, with sparks flying everywhere. The power supply system of the substation was immediately destroyed, and the power supply to the urban area responsible for this line was immediately interrupted.
The same situation also occurred in the other three substations. The helicopters destroyed the substations to pieces. One substation even caused a fire and burned down the machine room. It is estimated that it will be difficult to recover in a few days.
These four substations are hub-level substations, basically covering more than 80% of Los Angeles. The power outage in the substations immediately triggered a blackout in all areas. At this moment, the city of Los Angeles fell into darkness.
The outage affected downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood, West Los Angeles and even parts of the San Fernando River Basin.
More than 3 million people are involved.
Hollywood is also bustling at night. Countless tourists come here to have dinners, parties, bars, and hotels. Suddenly, everything falls into darkness. People are very panicked. Everything is in chaos. Many people are even locked in the elevator and cannot get out. .
Los Angeles International Airport is one of the busiest airports in the world. At 8:35 that night, the airport suddenly suffered a large-scale power outage, and the waiting hall was seriously affected. Fortunately, the airport has backup power supply, which did not affect the takeoff and landing of aircraft for the time being. However, other flights were immediately notified to be rescheduled, causing considerable trouble to air transportation.
There was a major power outage in the city. There were no street lights on the streets and it was pitch dark. People hurriedly found their cars and prepared to return home as soon as possible, but they found that the streets were full of cars and the traffic lights were out of power. This caused traffic chaos and caused traffic Traffic jams throughout Los Angeles came to a standstill.
The factory that was under construction had its production lines stopped due to a power outage.
The brightly lit large shopping mall is a shopping paradise. There was a power outage, and there was quite a commotion in the mall.
In a supermarket, someone suddenly rushed to the checkout counter and pulled open the cash register. The cashier originally wanted to stop her, but a punch came her way. She had no choice but to squat down and let the man snatch all the cash away.
As the power outage continues, crime cases begin to surge, and incidents of smashing and looting of stores begin to increase. Darkness is the best protective color. In the darkness, the devil in some people's hearts is released.
"Wow wow wow~~!"
Police sirens were blaring non-stop, rushing back and forth on the streets, but in many places due to traffic congestion, the police were surprisingly slow to dispatch.
The phones at the Los Angeles Police Department's reporting center were ringing like crazy. Dozens of operators were busy, and there were hundreds of calls waiting in line.
The Powered Persons Affairs Administration building also had a power outage at this moment, but it was well-equipped and had backup power supply equipment, and it only took a few minutes before it returned to normal.
Just after the power was restored in the office, Director Down received a call from the mayor of Los Angeles, "Director Down, I think it is necessary to ask the Supervision Bureau for help. This blackout was man-made. Half an hour ago, someone hijacked They used four police helicopters to crash into four substations, which cover 80% of the lines in Los Angeles. Now the whole of Los Angeles is plunged into darkness.”
"This matter is very difficult, and we suspect that I would like to ask the Supervision Bureau to intervene in the investigation of this matter, because we suspect that this is probably done by evil elements, and ordinary people will not be so crazy."
"Okay, I'll send someone over to investigate." Tang En said.
After hanging up the phone, Tang En called for Polly and Elton, and ordered them to take people to the police station to help investigate the attack on the substation. If it was really the work of a superpower, then their Superpower Affairs Bureau would It is very necessary to intervene.
Just as Polly and Elton were about to leave, Polly's cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was an unfamiliar number. He thought for a moment and answered the call, "Who is that?"
"Mr. Polly, are you satisfied with this blackout?" A voice that was not familiar, but one that Polly remembered deeply, came from the other end of the phone.
Polly's eyes widened and he asked loudly: "Qiao Qiaojiang, were you responsible for this blackout?!"
"I said, if you don't let my family go, I will make you regret it. This is my answer." Jiang Hao said in a cold tone.
Director Tang En and Elton heard Polly's call and immediately understood what was going on, and both of them were surprised.
I didn't expect that Qiao Qiaojiang would dare to do such a crazy thing.
Tang En snatched the phone from Polly's hand and shouted into the phone: "Qiao Jiang, you did it. Do you know that your crime this time is enough to be sentenced to a thousand years in prison?"
Jiang Hao on the other end of the phone smiled softly, "It's Director Tang En, I guess. I'm familiar with the laws of the Meili family, so I naturally know the consequences of what I do, but I'm not forced to do this by you!"
"I was originally a good student and never did anything bad. Now that I have reached this point, you all deserve a lot of credit."
Tang En could tell that Jiang Hao was not afraid of his own words. An eighteen-year-old boy who had done such a big thing was extremely calm, like a veteran who had committed crimes for many years and a battle-hardened tycoon.
"Do you believe it or not that I will sentence your relatives? Don't doubt that we have the ability." Tang En said harshly.
"I don't doubt it, because you can definitely do that, but I remember that you also have family, and there are quite a few, your wife Ms. Jennifer, your eldest daughter Lorinda, your second daughter Gina, your youngest son George, your pet dog Duke." Jiang Hao read out a string of names.
Tang En became angry and shouted into the phone: "If you dare to touch my family, I will personally cut you into pieces!"
"Haha, it seems that Director Tang En doesn't like others touching your family members. We feel the same way, but now, you touched my relatives first. You have broken the rules, so you are not qualified to stop me." Jiang Hao. said.
"If you dare to touch my relatives, I will definitely attack your family. I, Qiaoen Jiang, will do what I say. Director Tang En, don't underestimate the power of an honest man going crazy. I'm afraid you will regret it when the time comes. In the end, To put it bluntly, let my family go. If they don’t go home tonight, I will consider a new round of actions tomorrow, such as putting something in the city’s natural gas pipelines and water plants.”
The phone hangs up.
Director Tang En's angry face was ferocious. He squeezed the phone to pieces with force, and then it burned in his hand. When he opened his hand, it had turned into a pile of debris.
Polly looked at the scraps of mobile phone on the ground and said to himself, this is my mobile phone. I bought it with my own money.
"Director, what should we do?" Polly asked.
Tang En's face changed several times. He, the dignified director of the Supervision Bureau and a powerful hero, was actually threatened by an eighteen-year-old kid. This made his self-esteem unacceptable. But in the face of the other party's threat, did he have any problem? If he dares to experiment, even if his wife and children are in slight danger, he cannot accept it.
"Let those two people leave. Now, let them go." Director Tang En said loudly.
Lin Mei and Guo Zhenhan were released, and they walked out of the gate of the administration.
But before the two left, Polly told Lin Mei and his wife that Jiang Hao had joined an evil organization and had now become a super criminal, wanted all over the world. From now on, they could not have anything to do with him, otherwise there would be accomplices. suspicion of crime.
When the couple returned home, there was no electricity in the house. Lin Mei found a candle, lit it and put it on the table. There was a family photo on the cupboard. On it was a group photo of Lin Mei, Guo Zhenhan and Jiang Hao. They had no children. Since Jiang Hao After Hao came, they truly loved him as their own child.
Lin Mei reached out and touched the photo. She was very sad at the moment. She couldn't figure out how such an honest and obedient child like Jiang Hao could join an evil organization. Guo Zhenhan came over and hugged his wife. Lin Mei rested her head on her husband's shoulder, " Jiang Hao has lived with us for two years. He is a very kind child. I don’t believe what those people say. Even if he really joined the evil organization, there must be a reason. "
Guo Zhenhan patted his wife on the shoulder, "Don't be sad, I also believe in Jiang Hao. When I have the opportunity to see him again in the future, I will know if I ask him face to face."
The Los Angeles blackout continues.
in the dark night,
Many shops, supermarkets, gun shops, and jewelry stores were vandalized, smashed, and robbed. Gunshots rang out in many places, police sirens kept blaring, and police cars kept shuttling on the road. That night, many people had trouble sleeping.
the next day,
News media have reported on the Los Angeles blackout. It has been found that the blackout was caused by man-made sabotage. Four Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department patrol helicopters were hijacked and crashed into a substation, causing damage to the substation equipment and causing the blackout.
Although the power company made emergency repairs overnight and took measures such as converting backup circuits, only 30% of the areas had restored power overnight, and more than 50% of the entire Los Angeles area was still without power.
Some experts have analyzed that the damage this time is too serious. Some transformer equipment needs to be replaced in large quantities. It may take more than 12 hours to fully restore. Based on the rough estimate of the duration of the power outage, a conservative estimate of the property damage in this major power outage is about 250 million yuan. ~$30 billion or so.
This is a staggering loss.
The Los Angeles Police Department also held a brief press conference in the morning to announce the situation of the blackout. In the 12 hours from last night to this morning, Los Angeles received a total of 873 police calls, 20 times the usual number. The vast majority of them were robbery cases. A total of More than 500 stores, supermarkets, and jewelry stores were robbed, with direct property losses exceeding US$60 million.
A reporter asked if they had found out who was responsible. The police chief shrugged helplessly, "We are still investigating and will notify everyone of the latest news in a timely manner."
Director Tang En of the Super Management Bureau did not immediately inform the police about Jiang Hao. The Super Management Bureau was responsible for the superpowers, and this matter has been very complicated from the beginning to now, so he wanted to suppress it temporarily.
However, he has sent out his most capable subordinates to search and capture Jiang Hao. He must find him alive or dead.
And Jiang Hao's level has also been raised to orange.
What does orange mean.
Color grading is a way to grade the degree of danger of evil elements, divided into blue, yellow, orange, and red.
Blue represents ordinary members of evil organizations, which are somewhat dangerous.
Yellow represents people who are very dangerous.
Orange represents that this person is an extremely dangerous person.
As for red, they are all big devils, such as Doctor Doom, Red Skull, Thanos, Mandarin, Apocalypse and other great people.
The Los Angeles blackout shows that Jiang Hao is cruel and does things without regard for the consequences. He has no scruples and is an extremely dangerous person, so he is classified as orange.
Everything is normal in Superman High School.
Students came to class. Gwen was holding two books. Her full breasts were a little deformed by the books. She greeted the students around her from time to time.
When she walked to the corridor, her mobile phone rang with a system notification sound. There was a message. She picked it up and opened the message. She was stunned immediately.
"Last night's Los Angeles blackout was confirmed to be caused by Qiao Enjiang. He has been identified as an orange dangerous element by the Super Management Bureau. Under pressure, Tang En has released Qiao Enjiang's relatives and is trying his best to arrest him."
This was sent by her insider in the Superpower Affairs Management Bureau.
Seeing this message, Gwen was really surprised. She didn't expect that the blackout last night was caused by Qiao Enjiang. I really didn't see that Qiao Enjiang could do such a crazy thing.
Those who can do such crazy things are all super evil elements.
You know, it's not so easy to be a bad guy, especially a big bad guy, who often needs superhuman wisdom and tenacity, as well as good leadership.
Gwen became more determined to find Jiang Hao. She believed that if she could recruit such a person, she could train him to be her most capable assistant.
