Chapter 338: Jiang Cheng's Slick Maneuvering (3)



"Heh, do you think you can stop our hijacking? Sorry, I think your hopes are going to sink." The man in black sneered while shaking his head, wary of Jiang Cheng.

But just at that moment!

An unexpected change occurred.

Liu Ruoqing, who had been cautious just a moment ago, suddenly picked up a small object from who knows where and threw it directly at the man in black!

What an opportunity.

Jiang Cheng saw the object Liu Ruoqing tossed and noticed that the man in black was distracted, so he immediately charged forward.

If he were a second slower, who knows, the man in black might have pulled the trigger.

With a bang, the object hit the man in black's right eye. Seeing her successful throw, Liu Ruoqing clapped her hands joyfully, almost jumping with excitement.

"How can this be!" The man in black shouted, covering his right eye, feeling a stinging pain.

And at this moment, Jiang Cheng reached the man in black. Without giving him a chance to shoot, he struck the man's right hand with a knife-hand strike, causing the Lipstick Pistol to fall to the ground.

With a crunching sound, Jiang Cheng continued his movements. He grabbed the man in black's neck and twisted forcefully, causing the man's head to twist at an unbelievable angle, clearly dead beyond any doubt!

Although they had seen Jiang Cheng defeat thugs before, witnessing him kill a thug like this still unsettled many passengers, some even felt nauseous, almost to the point of vomiting.

Jiang Cheng calmly wiped his hand, then picked up the gun and forcefully opened the cockpit door, aiming the gun inside.

His vision was excellent, and he immediately saw the large man inside grabbing the co-pilot. He pulled the trigger, hitting the large man's forehead with a single shot.

The large man seemed bewildered when he saw Jiang Cheng, unable to believe their boss, the man in black, had already been subdued. Even as Jiang Cheng fired, he hadn't snapped out of his daze.

Bang, the large man fell.

The passengers behind Jiang Cheng rushed in to check the cockpit's situation, falling silent.

In the cockpit, it was clear the pilot had died, two crew members were dead, and the co-pilot lay slumped over the flight controls, fate uncertain, seemingly dead or just unconscious.

"What do we do now? Even though the hijackers are subdued, who will fly the plane?" A flight attendant shouted anxiously upon seeing that neither pilot could operate the plane.

The remaining passengers, flight attendants, and staff fell into silence!

The hijackers who posed a threat were dead, but who could fly the plane?

The situation looked grim; with one pilot dead and the other unconscious, some desperately attempted to revive the co-pilot, but to no avail!

"Damn it, without anyone to fly, we're still doomed!" A tall passenger, who earlier held some hope, couldn't help but voice his despair upon seeing the current scene.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Unknown sounds came from some direction in the cockpit, startling everyone. They began to sense something was wrong with the plane, as though it was descending!

Everyone felt their bodies following the plane, sinking slowly, while the plane's speed seemed to slow down significantly, and it began to shake violently, completely unstable!

It looked like the plane was about to crash!

At this moment, everyone's hearts seemed clenched tightly. After all the efforts to enter the cockpit and have Jiang Cheng deal with the hijackers, but now faced with even more despair!

Both pilots' fates were uncertain! Was there anyone on the plane able to fly it?

But they all knew, who among the passengers would know how to fly a plane when everything was perfectly fine, let alone with the impossibly high bar for learning to fly a jet?

In this critical situation, a maintenance staff member shouted immediately: "I'll try to activate the autopilot and see if it works!"

Even though there was an autopilot feature, its effectiveness was uncertain, as he had only seen the pilot operate it once and wasn't familiar with flight theory.

Seeing this maintenance personnel rush toward the cockpit, a few flight attendants and tall passengers followed closely but were taken aback by the scene before their eyes.

The current state inside the cockpit was utterly dismal, chaotic as if soup was boiling, likely due to the struggle between the hijackers and the pilots. Wires were everywhere, and some instruments were damaged!

This maintenance staff, the flight attendants, and the following passengers felt their legs weaken, almost collapsing entirely!

This scenario clearly indicated that the autopilot couldn't be activated anymore, so what next?

The maintenance personnel were extremely anxious; the plane continued to shake violently, allowing no time for other thoughts. In a fluster, he pressed several buttons, took the intercom, shouted a few times, but failed to contact ground control, resulting in a few standard curses.

"It's over! The autopilot can't be used, looks like we'll crash!" The maintenance personnel couldn't hold back any longer, overwhelmed by despair and collapsed onto the ground.

"Does anyone know how to fly a passenger jet? Both pilots are unable to fly!" A flight attendant shouted loudly, but none of the passengers responded; instead, they were engulfed by the atmosphere of despair, their expressions overwhelmingly sorrowful.

"A passenger jet? You're telling us about flying a passenger jet?"

"We're here to fly on a plane, not to fly it. Who would have known there'd be hijackers, and that they'd incapacitate both pilots?"

"Ordinary people wouldn't even get the chance to learn to fly; the threshold to learn commercial aviation is incredibly high!"

"Is there really no one to help... it looks like we're doomed." The flight attendant, seeing no one responding around her, laughed self-deprecatingly and slumped to the ground, much like the maintenance personnel earlier.

She knew almost no one knew how to fly; she merely asked on a whim. Realizing the desperate outcome, she finally broke down emotionally, recalling her boyfriend back on the ground and began to cry in despair.
