Chapter 169 Ascension

Occasionally a plane passed by in the sky, but it was only a small fixed-wing aircraft, not a helicopter, let alone a police helicopter equipped with thermal imaging.

Crescent City is a very small city, and the public security has always been relatively good, so Crescent City will definitely not have police helicopters equipped with thermal imaging, because there is no such demand, and big cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco do have them, but San Francisco is far away from Crescent City, even if the San Francisco police rush to support Crescent City, it will take a long time to reach Crescent City.

It's no use sending out Air National Guard planes, because what can National Guard planes do?

First of all, whether it is the Air Force or the National Guard, the needs of the aircraft used by the military and the police aircraft are completely different, so even if the aircraft of the Air Force National Guard is dispatched, how can it be possible to find scattered aircraft in the vast forest by relying on visual search? prisoner.

Just like what Yang Yi said to the warden, no matter what, the government of California and Crescent City and any power that can be mobilized in a short period of time must first ensure that most of the prisoners going to Crescent City are given Come back and say, this is not a conspiracy, nor is it a conspiracy, it is just a fact.

But Yang Yi saw this fact, he knew how things would develop, so he was not afraid.

It's just a little annoying to wait.

Pelican Bay Prison is located in the north of Crescent City, surrounded by forests. Not far to the north is a small town called Fort Dick. It can be said that not far from the prison is a residential area. If a large number of prisoners flood in, what will happen? It's unbelievable.

But Yang Yi is not worried that the prisoners will enter Fort Dick. The reason is very simple, because most of the residents in Fort Dick are prison guards and their family members. The prisoners may want to take revenge on the prison guards. In a small town of prison guards, and in a small town that will be warned immediately after the prison is out of control, the prisoners rushing there are no different from being in the prison, not looking for death or something.

So you can’t go to the north, the prisoners can only go south, follow the road to Crescent City, or enter the forest and go west, there is a road through the forest, there are no residents at all, you can go north and south along the road , or cross the road and go west, there is a large area of ​​mountains and forests.

There is also a forest to the east, but the area of ​​the forest on the east side is not large. After passing through the forest, there is farmland, and after crossing the farmland, you reach the coast.

Yang Yi and the others are going west.

A large-scale escape occurred in the prison. Residents within dozens of miles around the prison were all warned and notified, and they were all evacuated soon, or some people were unwilling to evacuate and were willing to stay at home to protect their property. Such families Let alone go, because families who dare to make this decision must have guns and dare to do it.

What's more, the prisoners are not in a hurry to rush into the houses to plunder. They are anxious to escape now, not to stay where they are and wait to be caught back.

So it's not that Yang Yi and the others didn't pass by the houses, but the houses they passed were either empty and deserted, or they were closed for shelter and guarded by the owner with a gun inside.

Yang Yi and the others did not go deep into the forest, but hid in the forest not far from the road. It is already seven or eight kilometers away from the prison. Patrolling police cars can often be seen driving slowly on the road. The police do not have enough The people started to search the mountain, and they have already controlled the road and monitored all the key nodes.

"We have to go. It's been a long time now. Whether it's the army or the police, there will definitely be a large-scale search. We can't stay here for more than three hours. It's too dangerous."

Chris couldn't help but began to persuade Yang Yi, Brian didn't even look at Chris, and was still concentrating on staring at the road passing through the forest, but Yang Yi had to appease Chris' emotions.

"Don't worry, we have to wait for someone to come to meet us. If we can go anywhere, even if we escape into a deeper forest, we still have to be found by the police, or worse, we may be shot dead."

After explaining patiently, Yang Yi whispered: "Don't worry, someone will definitely come to pick us up."

Yang Yi was very sure, but he was not as sure as he seemed, because he had already paid the money, and Raymond also said that he would come to pick him up, but he still didn't believe him after waiting for several hours. How can he not feel uneasy.

While talking, Yang Yi made another phone call, but he still couldn't get through as before.

Hank couldn't help but said, "Could it be a mistake?"

"Impossible. There are obvious landmarks and road signs here. He won't make a mistake."

At this moment, the phone that Yang Yi had just hung up suddenly rang, and he immediately connected the phone, and then he heard Raymond's urgent voice: "I'll be at the appointed place right away, come out quickly! Hurry up! Hurry up!" !"

Yang Yi stood up, and said happily: "Here we come, let us go out, but we didn't see the car."

Brian raised his head, looked at the sky and said, "That's the helicopter."

Yang Yi immediately said on the phone: "Is it a helicopter?"

Raymond said anxiously: "Yes! Helicopter, the road has been blocked, cars can't get in at all, and there are no police cars below, the army is coming soon, you must hurry up."

Yang Yi was already moving when he was talking, and they were not far from the road, at most it was nearly a hundred meters away. Without Raymond's urging, Yang Yi and the others had already come out of the bushes where they were hiding. , Rodriguez, who was unable to move, began to run on the road.

After walking and running to the road, the helicopter also started to descend. Before Yang Yi could wave his hand, a blue helicopter landed on the road.

The hatch was opened from the inside, and Raymond, who was wearing a headset, just waved anxiously. The helicopter's rotors didn't stop, and the wind was so strong that he couldn't hear anything, so he could only wave.

The wind was blowing so hard that they couldn't open their eyes. Yang Yi and the others bent over and threw the seriously injured Rodriguez onto the helicopter. Then several people quickly boarded the real helicopter one by one. Lift off, and then immediately start flying towards the depths of the forest.

The hatch was closed, Yang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and said loudly to Raymond, "Where are we going now?"

Raymond shook his head and said: "I can't go anywhere, just fly around here, we are volunteers, this helicopter is a volunteer to search for prisoners, so either wait for the order to return, or there is a mechanical failure, or If the prisoner is found, either the fuel is exhausted, or we have to stay in this airspace."
