The email address sent was Vermouth's email address, which is probably just a secondary account.

However, Vermouth was sitting right next to him and hadn't taken out her phone, so it seemed that she had set the time to send the email in advance.

Jiang Hang couldn't help but mutter to himself: This person is quite well-prepared for this kind of thing; it's obvious they've been followed quite a bit before.

He glanced at his phone casually. The email was short, containing only one sentence: "Something interesting is about to happen. Please wait patiently."

Interesting... What is Vermouth planning to do now?

Jiang Hang put his phone away and pondered what Vermouth might do.

However, just as Jiang Hang was pondering this, the bus arrived at the next stop, where many people boarded.

The most eye-catching were two people wearing heavy windproof jackets and carrying backpacks specifically designed for camping and mountaineering; they looked like they were about to go camping.

Jiang Hang's gaze swept over the other person as usual.

With just a glance, Jiang Hang noticed that something was wrong.

The two people, along with their backpacks, emitted a faint glow in the eagle's vision.

He even felt a sudden sense of crisis, as if something dangerous was about to happen.

If he wasn't mistaken, these people probably had quite a few bombs in their backpacks.

Is this what Vermouth meant by "interesting things"?

Normally, Jiang Hang would have already made his move by now, taking care of these two before they even had a chance to do anything.

With his advanced fighting skills, he is not afraid of most ordinary people, except for those overpowered characters in this world. Even if he has a pistol, it is meaningless if he can't hit it.

Thinking about the email Vermouth sent, Jiang Hang felt he could wait a little longer as long as there was no danger.

If these two guys don't make any moves before they get out of the car, it won't be too late for him to take care of them.

In Jiang Hang's eyes, these two people had become a moving mission reward.

Chapter 338: Chapter 336: The Unluckiest Thug?

However, while Jiang Hang had patience, these two people clearly did not.

Once the bus started moving again, the two men immediately revealed their menacing nature.

They pulled out handguns from their pockets. One of them pointed the gun at the driver, while the other shouted at the passengers, "Don't move! Anyone who dares to move will be killed!"

After the two thugs appeared menacingly on the bus, the atmosphere inside the bus became chaotic.

Some timid people even screamed on the spot when they saw someone pointing a gun at them.

Seemingly impatient with the people's terrified screams, one of the assailants fired a powerful shot directly at the top of the bus, creating several small holes.

"I said, quiet down! Didn't you hear me? If you keep yelling, I'll kill the ones who are yelling the loudest!" After seeing that they were holding real guns and not some kind of prank, the entire bus became unusually quiet in the face of the threat to their lives.

"Very good, now everyone hand over your cell phones."

"Don't even think about hiding and calling the police. If you dare to do that, I guarantee you'll never have the chance to make a phone call again in your life," the assailant said menacingly to the people in the car.

The assailant pointing the gun at the driver was giving him instructions: "Take a detour around the main streets of the city. You'd better not try anything funny. If I find out you're not behaving yourself, you should know what will happen to you."

A gun was pointed at his head. The bus driver, of course, had no other choice but to meekly agree.

At that moment, the kidnapper took the bus driver's phone and called the bus company.

His attitude was exceptionally arrogant: "I have hijacked your bus. We have only one request: immediately release Kunio Yajima, who is currently in prison!"

“You can call the police. But if my demands are not met, I will kill a passenger every now and then.”

He bluntly told the person on the other end of the phone, "I'll call you back in twenty minutes. If your company isn't prepared, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hang had roughly figured out the cause of the hijacking incident.

Although he had never heard of Kunio Yajima, nor did he know what crime he was in prison for.

But it's clear that the person must be the leader of their criminal group, since he's in prison for some reason and looks like he won't be out for several years.

And now it's because his underlings want to rescue their boss that they're doing this.

The thug who had been pointing a pistol at them had now walked up to Jiang Hang and taken his phone.

When Jiang Hang handed over his phone to such an arrogant thug, he really wanted to use a hidden blade attack on him.

However, seeing that Vermouth, who was sitting next to him, had obediently handed over her phone and even gave him a subtle wink, Zhang Hang ultimately did not do anything excessive.

However, these thugs seemed inexperienced; after taking Jiang Hang's phone, they didn't bother to check if Jiang Hang had anything hidden on him.

You should know that the little gadgets Jiang Hang is hiding all over his body are no ordinary danger.

The perpetrator's attitude towards other passengers was not much different; he basically relied entirely on the passengers' self-discipline, as if he didn't care at all that someone might actually hide their phone.

Moreover, after confiscating all the cell phones from all their passengers, they seemed to shift all their attention elsewhere.

If someone is secretly hiding a mobile phone, this is the most appropriate time to call the police.

However, judging from the pistol in their hands and the bomb hidden in their bag, these two thugs didn't seem like novices.

Jiang Hang's gaze quickly swept over the passengers on the bus. Sure enough, in addition to the two thugs, they had a third person assisting them.

That person happened to be sitting in the last row of the bus, right next to Shuichi Akai.

It was a woman in her thirties, chewing bubble gum as if the kidnapping had nothing to do with her.

If it weren't for the dangerous look on her wrist, he probably wouldn't have noticed.

Jiang Hang, who was an expert on bombs, could tell after a careful observation that the watch on the woman's wrist was probably the remote control for the bomb in the criminal's backpack.

If Jiang Hang wasn't mistaken, the woman sitting at the very back was probably there to monitor the passengers in the carriage and see if they were making any suspicious moves.

Having confirmed this, Jiang Hang looked at Vermouth beside him.

The two of them exchanged a brief glance.

Jiang Hang was asking Vermouth if she had arranged for these thugs.

Vermouth simply gave a look that said, "Let's keep watching."

It seems this is the interesting thing she mentioned in the email.

After receiving this reply, Jiang Hang turned his attention to Judy behind him and Shuichi Akai.

The two people didn't seem to be doing anything special; they just stayed quietly in their seats, as if they were treating themselves as ordinary people.

According to Jiang Hang's eagle-eye vision, Judy and Shuichi Akai were not carrying any weapons on them except for a few small knives that could be bought anywhere as self-defense tools.

Even they probably couldn't have known that just by randomly boarding a bus in order to follow Vermouth, they would encounter a hijacking incident that many people would never experience in their entire lives.

Of course, these thugs probably never imagined that they would find so many big shots on a bus when they just randomly picked one to hijack.

An FBI agent, a key member of a massive transnational criminal organization, and a famous detective whose background is practically reaching the sky.

If these thugs knew their true identities, they'd probably be trembling with fear right now.

Chapter 339: Chapter 337: Jiang Hang was also in the car?

These unlucky thugs had no idea that the bus they had just hijacked would be so complicated.

Armed with pistols and explosives, they completely disregarded the group of passengers inside the vehicle.

With an accomplice infiltrating the regular passengers to keep an eye on things inside the vehicle, their attention was now entirely focused on communicating with the police officer who had just called.

Their demands were similar to what they had just said; they simply wanted the police to release their boss, who was being held in jail.

There were about ten passengers on the bus, and at the request of the thugs, the bus driver dared not slow down at all, and continued to drive at a speed of forty or fifty miles per hour on the streets of Tokyo.

Even if he wanted to deliberately drive on the usually crowded streets, the criminals would immediately direct him to other unobstructed streets.

It seems that these criminals were worried that if the bus stopped, it might be attacked by snipers sent by the police, so they did some research on this before the operation.

When faced with such a hijacking incident, the police responded quite quickly. In less than half an hour, Jiang Hang noticed that police officers were gradually appearing around the streets the bus had passed through.

Even now, a helicopter is chasing the bus in the sky not far away.

Obviously, the helicopter, being such an obvious object, could not escape the eyes of these hijackers. They then issued another threat to the police on the other end of the phone: "Is this the attitude of your police? If you don't want anything to happen to the hostages in the car, take that helicopter back, or I won't be so polite!"

As he said this, the assailant fired a shot at the ceiling while the phone call was still connected, causing the timid passengers in the car to scream in fright once again.

"Did you hear those voices? I advise you to hurry up. If it's been more than an hour and I haven't heard from you that you've released Kunio Yajima, their lives will also be in danger."

The thug glared menacingly at the person who had shouted the loudest: "If the police don't release him, I'll start with you."

From his seat, Jiang Hang looked at the two armed thugs.

He had tranquilizer darts installed in both of his hidden blades, but both thugs were wearing heavy down jackets and sunglasses, so the tranquilizer darts probably wouldn't be very effective.

Shock bombs and sleeping gas are certainly usable, but these two thugs are standing right next to the driver. Using such area-of-effect weapons might injure the driver, and if another car accident occurs, it could cause an even more serious situation. Therefore, we can only use physical means to take them down.

Of course, Jiang Hang was certain that if he really wanted to take action, it would only take him a few seconds to deal with the two of them. Even if they reacted and tried to fire, it wouldn't be difficult for him to dodge the bullets, given his shrewdness.

The only thing to worry about is that if the thugs shoot at him and he manages to dodge, it might harm the passengers behind him.

Jiang Hang glanced at the four people sitting behind him.

We can ignore Judy and Shuichi Akai, those two FBI agents. Even if they can't dodge bullets, they should be able to avoid vital organs. To be honest, Jiang Hang has never used his basic first aid skills, even after he upgraded them to intermediate level with a skill book.

The other one is the mole among the criminals, but that's fine too. If those criminals shoot and kill their own accomplices, Jiang Hang won't feel any psychological pressure.

In other words, Jiang Hang needs to pay attention to the last ordinary passenger.

After considering these matters, Jiang Hang, feeling that everything was still under control, remained seated, wanting to see if Jodie and Shuichi Akai would make any moves.

However, neither of them made any move yet, and Jiang Hang turned to look at Vermouth beside him. Her expression was quite calm, as if to say that Jiang Hang should just keep watching.

Since Vermouth wasn't in a hurry, Jiang Hang naturally felt even less nervous.

......

Jiang Hang wasn't nervous at all; in fact, he was waiting to see what the criminals would do next. But at the Metropolitan Police Department, the entire investigation team was sweating bullets because of this sudden hostage situation.

"This is Takagi, this is point E. I see the hijacked bus. It is heading towards Beika and is maintaining a speed of about 50 kilometers per hour."

Takagi Wataru, who had just passed the police inspector make-up exam a few days ago and was promoted and received a raise, was using binoculars on a nearby street to report the situation of the hijacked bus to the Metropolitan Police Department.

"There were two criminals, but because they were wearing hats and sunglasses, we couldn't see their faces clearly, but they did have handguns in their hands."

"It should be a member of Kunio Yajima's gang who was arrested. However, according to our intelligence, there should still be three people in that gang who haven't been arrested yet. I wonder if the other thug is in the car."
